Download or read book Breaking the Mirror of Heaven written by Robert Bauval and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exposes the many cycles of monument destruction and cultural suppression in Egypt from antiquity to the present day • Details the vandalism of Egyptian antiquities and suppression of ancient knowledge under foreign rulers who sought to cleanse Egypt of its “pagan” past • Reveals the real reason behind Napoleon’s invasion of Egypt: Freemasonry • Shows how the censorship of nonofficial Egyptology as well as new archaeological discoveries continued under Antiquities Minister Zahi Hawass Called the “Mirror of Heaven” by Hermes-Thoth and regarded as the birthplace of civilization, science, religion, and magic, Egypt has ignited the imagination of all who come in contact with it since ancient times--from Pythagoras and Plato to Alexander the Great and Napoleon to modern Egyptologists the world over. Yet, despite this preeminence in the collective mind, Egypt has suffered considerable destruction over the centuries. Even before the burning of the Great Library at Alexandria, the land of the pharaohs was pillaged by its own people. With the arrival of foreign rulers, both Arabic and European, the destruction and thievery continued along with suppression of ancient knowledge as some rulers sought to cleanse Egypt of its “pagan” past. Exploring the many cycles of destruction and suppression in Egypt as well as moments of salvation, such as the first registered excavations by Auguste Mariette, Robert Bauval and Ahmed Osman investigate the many conquerors of Egypt through the millennia as well as what has happened to famous artifacts such as the Rosetta Stone. They show how Napoleon, through his invasion, wanted to revive ancient Egyptian wisdom and art because of its many connections to Freemasonry. They reveal how the degradation of monuments, theft of relics, and censorship of ancient teachings continue to this day. Exposing recent cover-ups during the tenure of Antiquities Minister Zahi Hawass, they explain how new discoveries at Giza were closed to further research. Clearing cultural and historical distortions, the authors reveal the long-hidden and persecuted voice of ancient Egypt and call for the return of Egypt to its rightful place as “the Mother of Nations” and “the Mirror of Heaven.”

Book excerpt: Tony Alum's Images from a Broken Mirror is a factional account of the fractious, violent, vicious circle in which African immigrants are trapped in Europe. Set in France and Italy, the story dwells on the trafficking of Nigerian women to Italy. Using the persona, Efe, a trafficked Nigerian girl, the author explores the pressures that come together to propel the men and women, young and old, from Africa to Europe. Efe goes through the tedious and dangerous life of an immigrant commercial sex worker in Italy. She falls in love with Carlo, her first client. Carlo proposes marriage to Efe who accepts and becomes pregnant. However, Efe takes a decision, in a moment of frustration, that will change her destiny, that of Carlo and the unborn child. Tony Alum has used this novel in a dialectical manner to x-ray the multifarious conflicts that dovetail to make life for the African immigrant in Italy a nightmare. Like most works of fiction, the author has reflected aspects of his experiences in Italy. The evidences of this closeness abound. For instance, the descriptions in the book are so graphically represented that one nearly for

Download or read book The Mirror and the Palette written by Jennifer Higgie and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dazzlingly original and ambitious book on the history of female self-portraiture by one of today's most well-respected art critics. Her story weaves in and out of time and place. She's Frida Kahlo, Loïs Mailou Jones and Amrita Sher-Gil en route to Mexico City, Paris or Bombay. She's Suzanne Valadon and Gwen John, craving city lights, the sea and solitude; she's Artemisia Gentileschi striding through the streets of Naples and Paula Modersohn-Becker in Worpswede. She's haunting museums in her paint-stained dress, scrutinising how El Greco or Titian or Van Dyck or Cézanne solved the problems that she too is facing. She's railing against her corsets, her chaperones, her husband and her brothers; she's hammering on doors, dreaming in her bedroom, working day and night in her studio. Despite the immense hurdles that have been placed in her way, she sits at her easel, picks up a mirror and paints a self-portrait because, as a subject, she is always available. Until the twentieth century, art history was, in the main, written by white men who tended to write about other white men. The idea that women in the West have always made art was rarely cited as a possibility. Yet they have - and, of course, continue to do so - often against tremendous odds, from laws and religion to the pressures of family and public disapproval. In The Mirror and the Palette, Jennifer Higgie introduces us to a cross-section of women artists who embody the fact that there is more than one way to understand our planet, more than one way to live in it and more than one way to make art about it. Spanning 500 years, biography and cultural history intertwine in a narrative packed with tales of rebellion, adventure, revolution, travel and tragedy enacted by women who turned their back on convention and lived lives of great resilience, creativity and bravery.

It is an unofficial history of the time spent in the small North Carolina towns of Willow Springs, Myatt's Mill, Mount Pleasant, Panther Branch Township, and Varina-Fuquay. Decades have passed. But the old houses, dilapidated barns, and broken mirrors that lay in the rubble have a lot to say about that era and the people to whom they once belonged. Now abandoned, they serve as reminders that life is as much about yesterday as it about today. The author's exploration of these secret places hidden in plain sight have revealed amazing treasures and valued memories. The artifacts were left behind for others to find.

With the world growing more technological and people more distant, this book serves as a retreat to a simpler time where conversation was king and the corner store was the center of the universe.

They can tell you about fairs and picnics and school dances like they happened just yesterday. Whether you are from North Carolina or any one of the other states that make up our great country, you will find laughter, wisdom, and comfort in these memories - sweet and bitter. The people who walked the streets of these old towns saw hardships and overcame them. They believed in the beauty of community. Now you are invited to become a neighbor.

Download or read book The Mirror in the Mirror written by Michael Ende and published by hockebooks. This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Mirror in the Mirror” – in the E-Book now also with illustrations by his father Edgar Ende, to whom Michael Ende dedicated this book. It is a fantastic story labyrinth of a very special kind. For the author himself, this work was of great importance: in interviews, he liked to call it his “never-ending story for adult readers.” The reader is taken into a mysterious narrative world, full of bizarre situations and mysterious fates, surreal images and philosophical thoughts. Those who open themselves in amazement to these enigmatic visions and allow themselves to be drawn into the fantastic stories will emerge from Michael Ende’s magic labyrinth with a new perspective. The core question is: What is reflected in a mirror that is reflected in a mirror? If two readers read the same book, they are still not reading the same thing. For both people immerse themselves into the reading. The book becomes a mirror in which the reader is reflected. But in the same way, the reader is also a mirror in which the book is reflected: The mirror in the mirror refers the reader back to himself. The FAZ, one of the major newspapers in Germany, writes that Michael Ende shows with the book “how much darkness, wildness and rawness is inherent in dreams. He does not trivialize. His dreams make reference to reality because in dreams, Cicero wrote, ‘the remnants of those objects roll and tumble about in the souls which we have thought and impelled while awake’.”

Download or read book Plague in the Mirror written by Deborah Noyes and published by Candlewick Press. This book was released on 2013-06-11 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a sensual paranormal romance, a teen girl’s doppelgänger from 1348 Florence lures her into the past in hopes of exacting a deadly trade. It was meant to be a diversion — a summer in Florence with her best friend, Liam, and his travel-writer mom, doing historical research between breaks for gelato. A chance to forget that back in Vermont, May’s parents, and all semblance of safety, were breaking up. But when May wakes one night sensing someone in her room, only to find her ghostly twin staring back at her, normalcy becomes a distant memory. And when later she follows the menacing Cristofana through a portale to fourteenth-century Florence, May never expects to find safety in the eyes of Marco, a soulful painter who awakens in her a burning desire and makes her feel truly seen. The wily Cristofana wants nothing less of May than to inhabit each other’s lives, but with the Black Death ravaging Old Florence, can May’s longing for Marco’s touch be anything but madness? Lush with atmosphere both passionate and eerie, this evocative tale follows a girl on the brink of womanhood as she dares to transcend the familiar — and discovers her sensual power.
