Download or read book Hide Seek written by Stephen Walker and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hide & Seek chronicles the intensely personal war between wartime Rome’s Nazi SS Chief Herbert Kappler and the Vatican’s Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty, a fiercely fought rivalry that culminated in Kappler attempting to kidnap and murder his Irish opponent, who was determined to fight Rome’s Nazi rulers. Called “Ireland’s Oscar Schindler,” O’Flaherty masterminded a large-scale operation from inside the neutral Vatican, to hide and help Jews, downed airmen, and escaped Allied prisoners. Using safe houses and church buildings, the priest sheltered around five hundred Jews in the Holy See and many thousands more Jews and Allied escapees in and around Rome. After a Resistance bomb killed thirty-two German soldiers, an enraged Hitler ordered revenge. Kappler planned and oversaw the firing squad execution of 335 people in the Ardeatine Caves outside Rome. The massacre became the worst atrocity committed on Italian soil during the war. After the war, the Nazi colonel was found guilty on all the charges relating to the massacre and sentenced to life. Amazingly, O’Flaherty began visiting his former rival in prison, engaging in a long-run conversation that led to Kappler’s conversion—and baptism by the Irish Monsignor.

Download or read book THE AWAKENING written by ANUJ BHATNAGAR and published by INDIA NETBOOKS . This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface...... The story of Lord Buddha is the most read story in the world. This is one story that is beyond the boundaries of religion, culture and society. The story is being told and retold for almost more than two thousand and five hundred years, yet what happened at that time from the birth of prince Siddhartha till he attained his Nirvana is very enigmatic. Not much written evidence is available for that, while lot of literature is available for what happened after Nirvana. This story is just an attempt to tell the world what would have happened at that time, when seen in the logical context of human boundaries. This story is only upto the point when monk Gautam attains Nirvana. Further attempt to tell the story after Nirvana, when Gautam became Buddha, will be made after the outcome of this attempt. We know some stories connected with prince Siddhartha, his life and these stories are scattered here and there in various books. Jatakas contain the previous birth stories of Lord Buddha. But there is no such consolidated book, which can be ascribed to prince Siddhartha’s life. The author has made an attempt to collect all such stories and thread them into a garland. The result is this book. In the attempt, some literary and fictional additions have been done. But in the end, the author is sure that the readers will like the storyline. Kapilvastu was not a huge kingdom. Its name is not included in the sixteen (or twelve) Mahajanpadas. It clearly indicates that Kapilvastu was a small principality within the kingdom of Kosala. The rulers of Kapilvastu were descendants of great Ikshavaku, who was also ancestor of the rulers of Kosala. It clearly means that the rulers of Kapilvastu and Kosala were related by blood. And as per the tradition, the throne was passed to the eldest son of the king and the younger son became vassal ruling small principalities within the kingdom, owing allegiance to the king. This would have happened at that time too, within the kingdom of Kosala. The story has been developed accordingly. Kapilvastu was surrounded by Mahajanpadas, and as such its polity was influenced by the neighboring kingdoms. Many events happened in the neighbouring kingdoms, and that had a bearing in the future of Kapilvastu and hence Siddhartha. These events have also been included in this story to give the story a flow. These incidences and events are of historical significance and happened around the same time, though the interpretation of these events is of author’s own. Some texts point out to the fact that Siddhartha was married to Yashodhara, a princess from the neighbouring kingdom of Koliya. Some texts point out that Siddhartha had three wives, namely, Yashodhara (daughter of Dandapani), Mrigdja (daughter of Kinkinishwar) and Gopa (daughter of Kanika). It is not sure, which one is the right fact. In this book, Siddhartha is shown to be married only to Yashodhara as the Shakyas wanted to preserve their lineage; hence marriage within community was allowed. Also ‘one man- one woman’ formula was propagated. Thus, it would have been not possible for Siddhath to marry three girls. The purity of Shakya race was declared by the Buddha himself in Ambattha Sutta. The predictions of sage Asit were not told to Prince Siddhartha, till this was finally revealed to him. All through his life as a prince, Siddhartha was kept away from four signs sage Asit told- an old decrepit man, a diseased man, a dead man and a monk. In this story, it is emphasized that king Shuddhodan had forbidden presence of anybody who could remind Siddhartha about these signs. Siddhartha virtually grew in controls of the palace. This is author’s idea to develop the story forward. The author is of belief that Buddhism was born after Buddha, i.e., after Siddhartha attained nirvana. Before Buddhism, there was Vedic religion and the Vedic philosophy. The same concept is used in this book to show what Siddhartha was taught by his teachers, Master Arada Kalama and Master Udrak Ramputra. Arada is depicted as an exponent of Raj Yoga techniques whereas Udrak is depicted as master of Hatha Yoga techniques. Siddhartha learnt both these techniques under these masters. This can be seen in the various teachings of Lord Buddha. In the Heart Sutta, Buddha explains about emptiness and form. This is nothing but something that can be explained and attained through combination of Raj yoga, HathaYoga and Laya Yoga. The author would like to mention that the philosophy depicted in the book have been told to him by his guru, Shri Shri Shibendu Lahiri, and sometimes it is verbatim. And what has been given in the book is just a drop in the ocean. There is much more to learn from him. In the book, an attempt is made to describe the psychology of Prince Devdatt, his extreme hatred for Siddhartha and why he hated Siddhartha. Due to this hatred only, Devdatt tried many times to kill Prince Siddhartha, then Lord Buddha after Siddhath attained nirvana. Till Siddhartha was born, Devdatt was heir apparent to the throne of Kapilvastu. He was eldest in the entire family for four brothers- Shuddhodan, Shuklodan, Amritodan and Dronodan. Shuddhodan’s wife, Queen Mayadevi could not conceive for almost twenty years after their marriage. Though there is no concrete evidence to say that, yet it is widely perceived to be like this only. (In some texts, Devdatt is the son of Suprabuddha of Devdaha). In the end of this preface, the entire genealogy of Lord Buddha, whichever the author could gather, is presented for ready reference. And after Siddhartha was born, and he became the heir to the throne of Kapilvastu, being elder son of the king. This incidence and many more such incidences where Siddhartha was given preference over other princes due to the stories associated with his birth, cemented Devdatt’s resolution to get rid of Siddhartha. Readers will not find story of Devdatt out of context in this book. In the concluding part of book, the Maar is shown to take a human form. Though this is not possible for the negativity to take a form, but it was essential to depict the fight monk Gautam had undergone with himself, with his own negativity. Only after defeat of his negativity, he could attain nirvana. Everybody has to fight with his Maar one day or the other, but the fight monk Gautam had with his Maar shows how the negativity sometimes controls the thoughts of even profound persons like monk Gautam. The author is sure that readers would like the depiction of fight between Gautam and his negativity. In order to take the story forward, the protagonist should always have some companion to express his mind. Thus, the protagonist of this story, Siddhartha and later Gautam is shown always in company of somebody, Channa, Yashodhara or Kondinya. Actually, Kondinya may not have met Gautam during his travel to Vaishali, but it is shown just to carry the story forward. The story contains many words which are not from English language, but from Sanskrit or Pali or Hindi. These words are in italics and their meaning is in the other chapter after preface. These words are used as they explain the situation better that any phrase or word in English. In the end, it is hoped that this attempt by the author will be appreciated by the readers. This story should be read as story, and not as an attempt to rewrite history. Many incidences and characters may not fall in line with the thinking of people having knowledge about Buddhism. This is a work of fiction and should be taken likewise. However, author welcomes the comments from the readers.

Download or read book Hide and Seek written by Virginia L. Blum and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to widespread cultural fantasies about the child--including childhood innocence, the child as origin of the adult, the fetal emergence of subjectivity, and the "inner child" movement--Hide and Seek examines representations of the child in fiction, psychoanalysis, and popular culture. Concentrating on the "go-between" function of the child in nineteenth- and twentieth-century American and British fiction, Virginia Blum shows how selected children in the works of L. P. Hartley, Charles Dickens, Henry James, and Vladimir Nabokov were actually fictional messengers who ultimately were unsuccessful at reconciling impasses in the adult world. Throughout her book Blum draws on pop images of real and fictional children, ranging from the Baby Jessica case, in which the idea of "real" paternity and family bonds comes to the mythic fore, to the film Home Alone, in which the abandoned child becomes protector of his family's hearth and home. Hide and Seek raises provocative questions about the ways in which our culture fetishizes the idea of the child at the same time that we treat with comparative indifference the conditions under which many real children actually live. "A work of striking originality and consistent intellectual honesty, forcing us into genuinely profound and darkly uncomfortable areas of speculation." -- James R. Kincaid, author of Child-Loving: The Erotic Child and Victorian Culture

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arch Thaumaturge had argued about answering a troll’s prayer. One renegade angel secretly saved an abandoned baby left to die. This human infant was enhanced with incredible abilities through a strange concoction mixed with angelic blood, and the child miraculously transformed into a green troll. The baby was taken to a barren troll in the troll kingdom. She made a covenant with the renegade angel to raise the infant as her own, and to help him become a great tracker. Having mastered his tracking skills, he became known for his ability to find the impossible. The people claimed him to be the greatest investigator in the kingdom. A powerful witch thought that by killing his parents, she would be able to stop him. But she was wrong. The renegade angel’s fellow Arch Thaumaturge Gatbam traveled to the future to persuade the mortal named Dr. Paul Coldchase—a relentless, strong-willed, very principled coroner—to travel to the dark ages. He assured him that his excellent medical skills would be appreciated, regardless of his race. Sometime later, he was murdered. This medical examiner was resurrected, and he changed his forename to Phantom. Dr. Phantom Coldchase teamed up with Trollpeo. Thus began the dynamic chronicles of the greatest detectives: Trollpeo Trolliceo Greenthumb, the Green Knight, and Dr. Phantom Coldchase, Medical Examiner.

Download or read book The Love of a Prince written by Laurence L. Bongie and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been written about Bonnie Prince Charlie, but few have brought to light as much new material as this one, including evidence of a short-lived son, born in Paris scarcely two years after the royal fugitive escaped to France following the unlucky Battle of Culloden. The book deals less with the oft-told story of the Prince's crushing defeat in '45 than with his subsequent inability to cope with failure and with the even more devastating personal defeat represented by his arrest in Paris and expulsion from France in 1748. During that critical time - a major turning point in his life - the once generous and compassionate Prince, having failed in his noble ambition either to vanquish his enemies or perish sword in hand, began his long descent into oblivion. One happy event, hitherto unnoted, nevertheless marked this crucial period. As the Prince in 1747-48 watched his world crumbling around him - his father and brother in Rome having abandoned him and given up hope of a Stuart restoration -- he fell in love, for the first time in his life, with his married cousin Louise, Princesse de Rohan, like himself a direct descendant of Poland's King John Sobieski. The Love of a Prince is her story too and an extensive appendix to the work is devoted to the passionate love letters she wrote during their clandestine affair. They convey the full tragedy of an archetypal femme abandonnee whom we observe progressing from the initial joys of young love to inevitable catastrophe. Ultimately, the princess's suffering and her moral defeat become little more than an unhappy subplot in the Prince's own saga of distrust, bad faith and angry failure set amid the intrigues and petty jealousies of the French court. Nearly a decade of researach by the author in the Stuart Papers at Windsor Castle and in private and public archives has gone into the work. Though at times challenging for the general reader because of its period French documentation (retained for the sake of authentic flavour), the work is by no means directed to the specialist alone. Indeed, at times The Love of a Prince reads more like an historical romance than history, despite the total absence of fictional elements. It will appeal to those interested in eighteenth-century history and biography, followers of the royal families of Europe, and especially those long-fascinated by the exploits of one of history's legendary heroes.
