Book George Borrow and His Circle  Esprios Classics

Download or read book George Borrow and His Circle Esprios Classics written by Clement King Shorter and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have to express my indebtedness first of all to the executors of Henrietta MacOubrey, George Borrow's stepdaughter, who kindly placed Borrow's letters and manuscripts at my disposal. To the survivor of these executors, a lady who resides in an English provincial town, I would particularly wish to render fullest acknowledgment did she not desire to escape all publicity and forbid me to give her name in print. I am indebted to Sir William Robertson Nicoll without whose kindly and active intervention I should never have taken active steps to obtain the material to which this biography owes its principal value.

Book The Rosicrucian Mysteries  Esprios Classics

Download or read book The Rosicrucian Mysteries Esprios Classics written by Max Heindel and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-17 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rosicrucianism is a spiritual and cultural movement which arose in Europe in the early 17th century after the publication of several texts which purported to announce the existence of a hitherto unknown esoteric order to the world and made seeking its knowledge attractive to many. The mysterious doctrine of the order is "built on esoteric truths of the ancient past", which "concealed from the average man, provide insight into nature, the physical universe, and the spiritual realm." The manifestos do not elaborate extensively on the matter, but clearly combine references to Kabbalah, Hermeticism, alchemy, and mystical Christianity.

Book Matthew Arnold  Esprios Classics

Download or read book Matthew Arnold Esprios Classics written by George Saintsbury and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-25 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mr. Matthew Arnold, like other good men of our times, disliked the idea of being made the subject of a regular biography; and the only official and authoritative sources of information as to the details of his life are the Letters published by his family, under the editorship of Mr. G. W.E. Russell (2 vols., London, 1895). To these, therefore, it seems to be a duty to confine oneself, as far as such details are concerned, save as regards a very few additional facts which are public property."

Book Pioneers of the Pacific Coast  Esprios Classics

Download or read book Pioneers of the Pacific Coast Esprios Classics written by Agnes C. Laut and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-08-18 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All through the sixteenth century the South Seas were regarded as a mysterious wonderworld, whence Spain drew unlimited wealth of gold and silver bullion, of pearls and precious stones. Spain had declared the Pacific 'a closed sea' to the rest of the world. But in 1567 it happened that Sir John Hawkins, an English mariner, was cruising in the Gulf of Mexico, when a terrific squall, as he said, drove his ships landward to Vera Cruz, and he sent a messenger to the Spanish viceroy there asking permission to dock and repair his battered vessels. Now on one of the English ships was a young officer, not yet twenty-five years of age, named Francis Drake. Twelve Spanish merchantmen rigged as frigates lay in the harbour, and Drake observed that cargo of small bulk but ponderous weight, and evidently precious, was being stowed in their capacious holds. Was this the gold and silver bullion that was enriching Spain beyond men's dreams? Whence did it come? Could English privateers intercept it on the high seas?

Book Six Letters From the Colonies  Esprios Classics

Download or read book Six Letters From the Colonies Esprios Classics written by R. C. Seaton and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I was absent from England eleven months, from November, 1884, to October, 1885. The first three of these Letters are reprinted, with slight alterations, from the Eastern Morning News. The last three were written after my return to England. As I have not cared to keep up the fiction of having written them from Australia, they may contain some references to events subsequent to my return. It is often objected, and truly enough, that travellers, who spend only so short a time as I have in fresh countries, are not justified in expressing deliberate opinions about them; but this does not apply where a writer gives his impressions as such, and not as matured opinions, or where he expresses the opinions of other people who, by long residence or otherwise in a particular country, have had every opportunity of forming them. I think it will not be found that I have offended in this particular."LONDON,October, 1886.
