Book excerpt: A millennium from now, global warming has gone into retreat as the Sun's dynamics convulse. The great ice returns, driving humankind back to its primitive origins. Here, bands of brutal warriors wage war in the bitter cold. Xaraf Firebridge, powerful young son of a barbarian chieftain, enrages his sire by adopting the pacifistic doctrine of an outland mystic, Darkbloom. Before he can break his vow and slay his father, he is drawn into a temporal wormline and flung a further million years into the Earth of the Failing Sun. Clever and determined, Xaraf wanders landscapes haunted by prospects of doom and overseen by a trio of godlike Powers. Since childhood he has dreamed of a beautiful young woman. His fate, he sees, is to rescue her from captivity--and perhaps save the whole world, now moved into the outer solar system and lit by a string of tiny orbiting suns. He has yet to meet his true foe, the dragon whose history stands opposed to humankind's. But which will prove to be this world's mythic Galahad?

Download or read book The Grail written by Lars Muhl and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Grail is neither a secret, a world treasure in the shape of a cup, a specific mortal woman, nor a hidden, chosen family. The Grail is a state of heart and mind! An old Spanish manuscript is given to Lars, and for two years it lies untouched in his office until one day the sun falls upon the book and Lars is drawn to pick it up once again. The pages reveal symbols and signs that he had not previously seen, and so begins the final part of his journey to discover the importance of the feminine archetype for our times. His travels take him to the caves of the holy mountain of Montsegur and on to the Southern Pyrenees and Mary Magdalene’s secret cave near Perillos. During his travels Lars meets a nameless Being of Light who presents him with the answers to many of today’s spiritual dogmas.

Download or read book African Art as Philosophy written by Souleymane Bachir Diagne and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This critically acclaimed study offers a distinct, incisive look at how Senegalese philosopher Senghor sees in African art the most acute expression of Bergson’s philosophy. Léopold Sédar Senghor (1906–2001) was a Senegalese poet and philosopher who in 1960 also became the first president of the Republic of Senegal. In African Art as Philosophy, Souleymane Bachir Diagne uses a unique approach to reading Senghor’s influential works, taking as the starting point for his analysis Henri Bergson’s idea that in order to understand philosophers, one must find the initial intuition from which every aspect of their work develops. In the case of Senghor, Diagne argues that his primordial intuition is that African art is a philosophy. To further this point, Diagne looks at what Senghor called the “1889 Revolution” (the year Bergson’s Time and Free Will was published), as well as the influential writers and publications of that period—specifically, Nietzsche and Rimbaud. The 1889 Revolution, Senghor claims, is what led him to the understanding of the “Vitalism” at the core of African religions and beliefs that found expression in the arts.
