Book excerpt: From ancient myth to contemporary art and literature, a beguiling look at the many incarnations of the mischievous—and culturally immortal—god Pan, now in paperback. Pan—he of the cloven hoof and lustful grin, beckoning through the trees. From classical myth to modern literature, film, and music, the god Pan has long fascinated and terrified the western imagination. “Panic” is the name given to the peculiar feeling we experience in his presence. Still, the ways in which Pan has been imagined have varied wildly—fitting for a god whose very name the ancients confused with the Greek word meaning “all.” Part-goat, part-man, Pan bridges the divide between the human and animal worlds. In exquisite prose, Paul Robichaud explores how Pan has been imagined in mythology, art, literature, music, spirituality, and popular culture through the centuries. At times, Pan is a dangerous, destabilizing force; sometimes, a source of fertility and renewal. His portrayals reveal shifting anxieties about our own animal impulses and our relationship to nature. Always the outsider, he has been the god of choice for gay writers, occult practitioners, and New Age mystics. And although ancient sources announced his death, he has lived on through the work of Arthur Machen, Gustav Mahler, Kenneth Grahame, D. H. Lawrence, and countless others. Pan: The Great God’s Modern Return traces his intoxicating dance.

Download or read book The Journey to the West Revised Edition Volume 1 written by Cheng'en Wu and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-12-21 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthony C. Yu’s translation of The Journey to the West,initially published in 1983, introduced English-speaking audiences to the classic Chinese novel in its entirety for the first time. Written in the sixteenth century, The Journey to the West tells the story of the fourteen-year pilgrimage of the monk Xuanzang, one of China’s most famous religious heroes, and his three supernatural disciples, in search of Buddhist scriptures. Throughout his journey, Xuanzang fights demons who wish to eat him, communes with spirits, and traverses a land riddled with a multitude of obstacles, both real and fantastical. An adventure rich with danger and excitement, this seminal work of the Chinese literary canonis by turns allegory, satire, and fantasy. With over a hundred chapters written in both prose and poetry, The Journey to the West has always been a complicated and difficult text to render in English while preserving the lyricism of its language and the content of its plot. But Yu has successfully taken on the task, and in this new edition he has made his translations even more accurate and accessible. The explanatory notes are updated and augmented, and Yu has added new material to his introduction, based on his original research as well as on the newest literary criticism and scholarship on Chinese religious traditions. He has also modernized the transliterations included in each volume, using the now-standard Hanyu Pinyin romanization system. Perhaps most important, Yu has made changes to the translation itself in order to make it as precise as possible. One of the great works of Chinese literature, The Journey to the West is not only invaluable to scholars of Eastern religion and literature, but, in Yu’s elegant rendering, also a delight for any reader.

Book excerpt: Talian Unsuana has never been better than average - in fact, average, for her, is pretty good. When she's not being average, she's more or less insane. The birds and the beasts, even the weather, talk direct to her head. She tries to drown them all out with EDDs (electronic distraction devices). She prefers computer games to the real world, and often gets the two mixed up. Hence, when Talian finds herself hanging upside down in the midst of a storm on a deserted mountainside one day, she's not sure how seriously to take her situation. It looks real enough; it feels real... If only the voices in her head would cut it out! Voices. The strangest thing about them is that they consistently give her good advice. Seems the thing that keeps her alive also keeps her insane? Whatever, the mountain is full of monsters and disasters, and the voices are telling her to run... Must she run forever? Can she fight back? If the world is fake, is there any point? If it's real, what could she possibly do? She's average. No question there. With so much self-doubt to overcome, Talian seems poorly placed to vanquish the worst monster of them all, the one in her own mind. But that's the monster she must harness if she wants to avert the catastrophe that threatens not only Lellia, but the whole Hasserican Empire. The Accidental Pilgrim describes a little known period of the Hasserican Empire. Based on primary sources and written by a first-hand witness, it has good claim to being the most authoritative account ever published. This newly translated edition is the first to appear in English. More information: http://cheravel.wikidot.com
