This book was released on 2016-09-18 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Con este libro continuamos ese magn�fico viaje al interior de la esencia del Tarot. Iremos descubriendo nuevas simbolog�as, nuevos c�digos secretos, nuevos caminos y nuevos mensajes. Siempre desde la sencillez y sin ese manto de ocultismo, que como ya hab�is podido comprobar en el libro anterior, es un manto impuesto por la sociedad. Que tal y como vamos avanzando en su estudio, comprobamos que dicho manto es impuesto de una forma injusta.Aqu� vamos a continuar disfrutando de esa claridad, de esa sencillez para seguir aprendiendo un poco m�s, para seguir conociendo la verdad del Tarot y conseguir ser unos buenos int�rpretes de los mensajes de sus Arcanos, unos buenos tarotistas. Adem�s vamos formando parte del grupo de personas que luchan por difundir la aut�ntica esencia del Tarot, de las que luchan por su libertad y respeto. Este libro es el segundo de la trilog�a de �Quieres aprender Tarot? En �l vamos a introducirnos en el mundo de los Arcanos Menores. Vamos a conocer a los cincuenta y seis Arcanos que son imprescindibles para los Arcanos Mayores, as� como los Mayores son imprescindibles para los Menores.Ellos nos traen una informaci�n que nos ayudar� a la hora de la interpretaci�n de los mensajes de los Arcanos Mayores. Ellos nos aportan una serie de detalles que ampliaran con m�s precisi�n el mensaje de los Mayores, facilit�ndonos esa interpretaci�n que nosotros realizaremos de la tirada.La decisi�n del porque he iniciado primero por los Arcanos Menores y no por los Mayores es muy sencilla. Ellos son los eternos olvidados, son a los que menos atenci�n se les presta, tal vez por su gran n�mero, cincuenta y seis, pero ellos son tan importantes y necesarios como los otros veintid�s Arcanos. Haciendo uso de esos ejemplos cotidianos que nos ayudan a los humanos a comprender y entender una informaci�n, voy a seguir haciendo uso de ellos. Todos podemos organizar una barbacoa con la familia y amigos. En esta futura quedada se reunir�n personas de diferentes edades. Unos ser�n abuelos, otros padres de adolescentes, otros padres de ni�os peque�os o bebes, otros ser�n principiantes de la adolescencia y otros todav�a estar�n en la dulce edad de la infancia. Ellos pueden ser los representantes de los Arcanos Mayores. Pero si no compramos la carne, no buscamos un lugar para la celebraci�n del encuentro y no concretamos un d�a, esa reuni�n familiar y de amigos, ser� dif�cil que se materialice. Todos esos detalles imprescindibles para que la celebraci�n de la barbacoa sea un �xito, pueden ser los representantes de los Arcanos Menores.Esa es la l�gica que yo he seguido para decidir iniciar ese viaje al encuentro de los mensajes de todos los Arcanos del Tarot. Primero organizo y preparo el d�a de la barbacoa, los Arcanos Menores. Cuando en el d�a concretado se celebre esta reuni�n y lleguen los comensales, los Arcanos Mayores, el �xito est� asegurado. Ser� un d�a donde los Arcanos Mayores y Menores compartan el mismo espacio, el mismo objetivo y el mismo mensaje. Ese d�a ser� como la tirada de Arcanos en la mesa de consulta. Una reuni�n de familia y amigos, una reuni�n de Arcanos Mayores y Menores.Os invito a seguir preparando esta fiesta. Recordar que si la organizamos entre todos, todav�a aseguramos m�s el �xito.�Continuamos'...

Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of the acclaimed Chaos and Genius comes a thoughtful and provocative exploration of the big ideas of the modern era: Information, communication, and information theory. Acclaimed science writer James Gleick presents an eye-opening vision of how our relationship to information has transformed the very nature of human consciousness. A fascinating intellectual journey through the history of communication and information, from the language of Africa’s talking drums to the invention of written alphabets; from the electronic transmission of code to the origins of information theory, into the new information age and the current deluge of news, tweets, images, and blogs. Along the way, Gleick profiles key innovators, including Charles Babbage, Ada Lovelace, Samuel Morse, and Claude Shannon, and reveals how our understanding of information is transforming not only how we look at the world, but how we live.

Download or read book The Amazonian Languages written by R. M. W. Dixon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1999-09-23 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Amazon Basin is arguably both one of the least-known and the most complex linguistic regions in the world. It is the home of some 300 languages belonging to around twenty language families, plus more than a dozen genetic isolates, and many of these languages (often incompletely documented and mostly endangered) show properties that constitute exceptions to received ideas about linguistic universals. This book provides an overview in a single volume of this rich and exciting linguistic area. The editors and contributors have sought to make their descriptions as clear and accessible as possible, in order to provide a basis for further research on the structural characteristics of Amazonian languages and their genetic and areal relationships, as well as a point of entry to important cross-linguistic data for the wider constituency of theoretical linguists.

Download or read book Cholas and Pishtacos written by Mary Weismantel and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2001-12-15 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2003 Senior Book Prize from the American Ethnological Society. Cholas and Pishtacos are two provocative characters from South American popular culture—a sensual mixed-race woman and a horrifying white killerwho show up in everything from horror stories and dirty jokes to romantic novels and travel posters. In this elegantly written book, these two figures become vehicles for an exploration of race, sex, and violence that pulls the reader into the vivid landscapes and lively cities of the Andes. Weismantel's theory of race and sex begins not with individual identity but with three forms of social and economic interaction: estrangement, exchange, and accumulation. She maps the barriers that separate white and Indian, male and female-barriers that exist not in order to prevent exchange, but rather to exacerbate its inequality. Weismantel weaves together sources ranging from her own fieldwork and the words of potato sellers, hotel maids, and tourists to classic works by photographer Martin Chambi and novelist José María Arguedas. Cholas and Pishtacos is also an enjoyable and informative introduction to a relatively unknown region of the Americas.
Download or read book Music in Renaissance Magic written by Gary Tomlinson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magic enjoyed a vigorous revival in sixteenth-century Europe, attaining a prestige lost for over a millennium and becoming, for some, a kind of universal philosophy. Renaissance music also suggested a form of universal knowledge through renewed interest in two ancient themes: the Pythagorean and Platonic "harmony of the celestial spheres" and the legendary effects of the music of bards like Orpheus, Arion, and David. In this climate, Renaissance philosophers drew many new and provocative connections between music and the occult sciences. In Music in Renaissance Magic, Gary Tomlinson describes some of these connections and offers a fresh view of the development of early modern thought in Italy. Raising issues essential to postmodern historiography—issues of cultural distance and our relationship to the others who inhabit our constructions of the past —Tomlinson provides a rich store of ideas for students of early modern culture, for musicologists, and for historians of philosophy, science, and religion. "A scholarly step toward a goal that many composers have aimed for: to rescue the idea of New Age Music—that music can promote spiritual well-being—from the New Ageists who have reduced it to a level of sonic wallpaper."—Kyle Gann, Village Voice "An exemplary piece of musical and intellectual history, of interest to all students of the Renaissance as well as musicologists. . . . The author deserves congratulations for introducing this new approach to the study of Renaissance music."—Peter Burke, NOTES "Gary Tomlinson's Music in Renaissance Magic: Toward a Historiography of Others examines the 'otherness' of magical cosmology. . . . [A] passionate, eloquently melancholy, and important book."—Anne Lake Prescott, Studies in English Literature

Download or read book The Last Samurai written by Helen DeWitt and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-31 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Called “remarkable” (The Wall Street Journal) and “an ambitious, colossal debut novel” (Publishers Weekly), Helen DeWitt’s The Last Samurai is back in print at last Helen DeWitt’s 2000 debut, The Last Samurai, was “destined to become a cult classic” (Miramax). The enterprising publisher sold the rights in twenty countries, so “Why not just, ‘destined to become a classic?’” (Garth Risk Hallberg) And why must cultists tell the uninitiated it has nothing to do with Tom Cruise? Sibylla, an American-at-Oxford turned loose on London, finds herself trapped as a single mother after a misguided one-night stand. High-minded principles of child-rearing work disastrously well. J. S. Mill (taught Greek at three) and Yo Yo Ma (Bach at two) claimed the methods would work with any child; when these succeed with the boy Ludo, he causes havoc at school and is home again in a month. (Is he a prodigy, a genius? Readers looking over Ludo’s shoulder find themselves easily reading Greek and more.) Lacking male role models for a fatherless boy, Sibylla turns to endless replays of Kurosawa’s masterpiece Seven Samurai. But Ludo is obsessed with the one thing he wants and doesn’t know: his father’s name. At eleven, inspired by his own take on the classic film, he sets out on a secret quest for the father he never knew. He’ll be punched, sliced, and threatened with retribution. He may not live to see twelve. Or he may find a real samurai and save a mother who thinks boredom a fate worse than death.

Download or read book Lipstick Traces written by Greil Marcus and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greil Marcus, author of Mystery Train, widely acclaimed as the best book ever written about America as seen through its music, began work on this new book out of a fascination with the Sex Pistols: that scandalous antimusical group, invented in London in 1975 and dead within two years, which sparked the emergence of the culture called punk. âeoeI am an antichrist!âe shouted singer Johnny Rottenâe"where in the world of pop music did that come from? Looking for an answer, with a high sense of the drama of the journey, Marcus takes us down the dark paths of counterhistory, a route of blasphemy, adventure, and surprise.This is no mere search for cultural antecedents. Instead, what Marcus so brilliantly shows is that various kinds of angry, absolute demandsâe"demands on society, art, and all the governing structures of everyday lifeâe"seem to be coded in phrases, images, and actions passed on invisibly, but inevitably, by people quite unaware of each other. Marcus lets us hear strange yet familiar voices: of such heretics as the Brethren of the Free Spirit in medieval Europe and the Ranters in seventeenth-century England; the dadaists in Zurich in 1916 and Berlin in 1918, wearing death masks, chanting glossolalia; one Michel Mourre, who in 1950 took over Easter Mass at Notre-Dame to proclaim the death of God; the Lettrist International and the Situationist International, small groups of Parisâe"based artists and writers surrounding Guy Debord, who produced blank-screen films, prophetic graffiti, and perhaps the most provocative social criticism of the 1950s and âe(tm)60s; the rioting students and workers of May âe(tm)68, scrawling cryptic slogans on city walls and bringing France to a halt; the Sex Pistols in London, recording the savage âeoeAnarchy in the U.K.âe and âeoeGod Save the Queen.âe Although the Sex Pistols shape the beginning and the end of the story, Lipstick Traces is not a book about music; it is about a common voice, discovered and transmitted in many forms. Working from scores of previously unexamined and untranslated essays, manifestos, and filmscripts, from old photographs, dada sound poetry, punk songs, collages, and classic texts from Marx to Henri Lefebvre, Marcus takes us deep behind the acknowledged events of our era, into a hidden tradition of moments that would seem imaginary except for the fact that they are real: a tradition of shared utopias, solitary refusals, impossible demands, and unexplained disappearances. Written with grace and force, humor and an insistent sense of tragedy and danger, Lipstick Traces tells a story as disruptive and compelling as the century itself.
