Download or read book The Dream World of H P Lovecraft written by Donald Tyson and published by Llewellyn Worldwide. This book was released on 2010-11-08 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occult scholar Donald Tyson plumbs the depths of H. P. Lovecraft's cosmic visions and horrific dream world to examine, warts and all, the strange life of the man who created the Necronomicon and the Cthulhu mythos. Lovecraft expressed disdain for magic and religion, and most of his biographers have dismissed the mystical side of his nature. This book redresses this imbalance. Here you will find the roots of Lovecraft' extraordinary cosmic vision laid bare. The dream-world sources for his mythic Old Ones are examined, along with the practical esoteric implications of Lovecraft's unique mythology. A man in fundamental conflict with himself, Lovecraft lived always on the brink of madness or suicide. Tyson reveals Lovecraft for what he truly was—a dreamer, an astral traveler, and the prophet of a New Age. Praise: "The Dream World of H. P. Lovecraft is a thought-provoking and intellectually stimulating book. Its fusion of sound biographical knowledge and critical insight makes it a must-read for Lovecraftians."—S.T. Joshi, Leading Authority on H. P. Lovecraft

Download or read book The PlayStation Dreamworld written by Alfie Bown and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From mobile phones to consoles, tablets and PCs, we are now a generation of gamers. The PlayStation Dreamworld is – to borrow a phrase from Slavoj Zizek – the pervert's guide to videogames. It argues that we can only understand the world of videogames via Lacanian dream analysis. It also argues that the Left needs to work inside this dreamspace – a powerful arena for constructing our desires – or else the dreamworld will fall entirely into the hands of dominant and reactionary forces. While cyberspace is increasingly dominated by corporate organization, gaming, at its most subversive, can nevertheless produce radical forms of enjoyment which threaten the capitalist norms that are created and endlessly repeated in our daily relationships with mobile phones, videogames, computers and other forms of technological entertainment. Far from being a book solely for dedicated gamers, this book dissects the structure of our relationships to all technological entertainment at a time when entertainment has become ubiquitous. We can no longer escape our fantasies but rather live inside their digital reality.

Download or read book Awake in the Dream World written by Audrey Niffenegger and published by Jonathan Cape. This book was released on 2015-12-03 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Otherworldly, provocative, and strange, Audrey Niffeneggerâe(tm)s art is a vital a part of her vision as her bestselling novels The Time Travelerâe(tm)s Wife and Her Fearful Symmetry. Awake in the Dream World is a mid-career retrospective of Nifffeneggerâe(tm)s work, reflecting her talent for cultivating a captivating narrative exclusively through pictures and her own confrontations with life, mortality, and magic. Niffenegger's fantastical body of work is reminiscent of renowned pen and ink predecessors such as Edward Gorey, Aubrey Beardsley, Egon Schiele, Edward Dulac, and Horst Janssen, but with a brutally honest and unapologetically strange female perspective that touches upon the universal trials of life - death and decay, love, jealousy, redemption, and the inevitability of change. Her works on paper, lithographs, and aquatints reflect the often surreal narratives of her artist's books. Through self-portraiture, Niffenegger reveals her own self-assurance and whimsy alongside anxiety and loneliness, probing darker corners of the human heart and mind, often exploring the hopeless struggle with what Shakespeare called 'this bloody tyrant, Time'. Essays by Audrey Niffenegger, National Museum of Women in the Arts Curator of Book Arts Krystyna Wasserman, and Art Institute of Chicago Curator and School of the Art Institute Professor Mark Pascale explore the artist's influences and work. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at the National Museum of Women in the Arts

Book excerpt: High school is tough. Hormones running wild, teachers out to get you, and girls-well, they're impossible to understand and even harder to pull your eyes away from. For Trayvian James, it's worse than normal. His parents are non-existent, he doesn't have a single person he can call a friend, and the only girl who will talk to him is pretty enough, but naked-neighbor crazy. Luckily for Tray, his real life isn't the only one he lives. Tray isn't normal. Not by a long stretch. Every night when he falls asleep, Tray is transported into Havehn-a world created in his own mind-to a life filled with magic and adventure. In Havehn, Tray attends The Academy, the premier school in the entire realm, and is about to take the Test to become a Warrior Mage (the most beast of all the three Orders of Magic). No one has ever taken the Test at Trayvian's age, but there's no time to waste because there are signs that an ancient prophecy is about to come true. For over a thousand years, The Darkness has been imprisoned. Now prophecies say the Dreamer must find a way to stop The Darkness from escaping or face the unfathomable evil in the Last Great War. While Tray gets more than his fill of excitement and adventure in his dreams, his boring real existence is altered when an amazing girl moves to his school. Tray falls hopelessly in love the first day Claire sways into history class, and she makes him question which life he holds most dear-falling for Claire could mean losing his dream world forever. Tray, along with his best friends Damon and Trill, must fight the unspeakable power of The Darkness in his dreams. When evil slithers its way into Tray's real life, threatening the only person he's ever loved, Tray finds nothing is as it seems. He must unlock the secrets of his own past to save the girl he loves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I grew large yet I shrunk small. I rose up yet I shrunk down low. I knew this feeling well, I was entering the dream world. I stood outside of the cave of a thousand eyes and I began to feel rain pouring down on me. I lifted my hand and looked at it and it was then that I realized I was not being covered with rain drops, I was being covered with blood and this blood was that of my people that was shed during the battle to keep our homeland. The legendary battle of the removal of the Cherokee known as the Trail of Tears. Although I stand as one spirit I have lived many lifetimes. Past meets present and present meets the past. I entered the dream world hoping to find the answer and knowing I had fought many battles with the evil one and it always begins the same way, by entering the dream world where my spirit guide Nonauma awaits for the past and the present to merge and become stronger, stronger for the battle between good and evil. The dream world is universal, all beings go there but there are those few who stay longer sometimes hours,sometimes days yet have only closed their eyes for a moment. Morning Star and Olivia posses this gift and although they are two separate people they have one thing in common, they share the same spirit. Morning Star is Olivia’s past life and Olivia is Morning Stars’ future life. Together they must battle an angry entity simply called the evil one. The evil one will do anything to capture and keep the girls gift of sight. With this power he can rule many people, therefore making it easier to cause chaos and disaster. The evil one controls the bees and snakes and he uses them all to try and get an upper hand on the girls. He is much like the coyote, full of trickery. But there is one rule that even he must follow and that is he can not take this gift away from either girl they must give it to him out of their own free will. Both girls are born with a marking upon their palm, a perfect medicine wheel and this mark holds the key that can destroy the evil one. Who is the dream and who is the dreamer? Well, that is for you, the reader to decide. Although the girls are from different eras, their battle has not changed. The dream world is mystical and magical and it is a place with no boundaries. At times it is hard for both girls to know whether they are in the good dream world or the world of bad dreams where the evil one lurks, waiting for the right time to deceive the girls. Their battles are legendary amongst Morning Stars’ people but in Olivia’s world, she stands alone, isolated within the truth and it is only in the dream world that she finds freedom to use her gift without any worries of being different.
