Download or read book The Illuminating Lantern written by Shaykh Habib Al Kadhimi and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-17 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over a millennium, numerous explications have been written and published around the world about the Holy Quran. The book you are holding in your hands is one of the new explications. The author, Shaykh Habib al-Kadhimi interprets the thirtieth section of the Quran in a new and functional style to practically benefit from the holy Revelation. The author has relied on the bullet method instead of explaining every word and every expression as is customary in most explications. He collects the components of every short chapter and chooses the main points that pertain to our daily life. He then adds a moral and spiritual aspect with a language that speaks to the spirit and the mind to present practical Quranic solutions that can shape human personality in the three dimensions of mind, spirit, and morals.

Download or read book The Magic Lantern of Marcel Proust written by Howard Moss and published by Paul Dry Books. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[The Magic Lantern of Marcel Proust] reduces the ungainly and intricately designed masterpiece to its shape, and with hardly a wasted word...The paragraphs on habit and memory are truly wonderful—wonderful as explication, as psychology, and as philosophy."—John Updike "Almost everything Moss says seems to me right, illuminating, and new. This is the book of a mature and individual mind and sensibility, with a deep experience of moral, social, psychological, and aesthetic values which is rare among critics." —George D. Painter "A moving and inspiring book. Moss clears away dark corners, clarifies motivations, and places the huge work within the reader's perspective. A book of great value to the scholar and the general reader." —Publishers Weekly "Remembrance of Things Past is more than a novel; it is a work in which a single person's life is transformed into a mythology, with its own pantheon of gods, its own religious rituals, and its own moral laws. A total vision, it does not rely on any system outside itself for support. It is as if Dante had set out to write the Paradiso and the Inferno utilizing only the facts of his own existence without any reference to Christianity...Other novelists describe or invent worlds. Remembrance of Things Past is an entire universe created and interpreted by Marcel Proust." — from Chapter 1 "Moss lays out the sweeping claims and overarching structure of Remembrance of Things Past—the significance of Swann's Way and the Guermantes Way, or why there are such long party scenes—and is equally good at bringing to light all sorts of tiny, revealing details." — from the new Foreword by Damion Searls

Download or read book Gaslight written by Joachim Kalka and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one-of-a-kind exploration of the 19th century that ties the time period to our own through essays on a variety of topics in music, film, literature, and art. In Gaslight, Joachim Kalka delves into the mythos of the nineteenth century, exploring our fascination with its “auratic gaslight,” its mingling of romanticism and modernity, enlightenment and darkness. Here we find the roots of our contemporary preoccupations: gender roles and sexuality, terrorism and technology, mad scientists and serial killers, kitsch and commodification. Mustering a wealth of cultural references, Kalka draws illuminating connections between Balzac and Billy Wilder, Mickey Mouse and the arms race, the cake fights of Laurel and Hardy and Madame Bovary’s wedding cake. He brings the nineteenth century to life with all its contradictions, aspirations, and absurdities, inviting us to reexamine that era and our own, and the stories we tell ourselves about history.
