Book excerpt: We seldom think about chivalry today, and when we do it seems only a relic of a code that was outdated long ago. But what did chivalry mean originally? And what would it look like today if we brought that original chivalry back into our 21st century lives? This study for high school students to adults will introduce you to "ancient code chivalry," that first manly credo invented to transform rough warriors into Christian heroes. In this study you will find not only amazing stories of knights and ladies you've probably never read about in any other history books, but you will learn their creed as well. If you can learn to live the Ten Commandments of chivalry found in these pages, you'll be sharing in the same great quests of thousands of the best knightly heroes of a bygone age.

Book excerpt: Guibert of Ghent is only 7 years old when he arrives at his uncle's castle to become a knight and study chivalry. But learning the Ancient Code of Chivalry turns out to be a much harder and much more exciting lesson than he ever expected! Guibert's study of chivalry leads him into adventures involving a deadly encounter with wolves, helping a lady in distress, finding new friends and new enemies, fighting a nefarious political plot against his home, helping in a desperate woodland battle, and solving a mystery with roots stretching into the era of his Viking great-grandparents. Follow Guibert's adventures through the Ten Commandments of Chivalry in this character study of 22 lessons for your little knights. A story lesson alternates with a practical lesson about the specific commandment Guibert is learning, applying Christian principles to everyday situations. The lessons also contain questions to think about, memory verses, reproducible coloring pages, puzzles, crafts, and practical activities to make learning chivalry even more fun! Chivalry is still very much alive today. And that's because it is essentially a list of qualities to help people be better servants to God and their fellow man. It is codified Christian servanthood. It speaks into our broken, modern age in incredibly relevant ways, and it can help your child build a strong foundation for a vibrant life of Christian faithfulness. Those bold boys and girls who set off on the path of Ancient Code Chivalry will find a challenge: but they'll find it the path of real, Christian adventure, a path they'll never want to turn back from!

Download or read book La Boutique Obscure written by Georges Perec and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beguiling, never-before-translated dream diary of Georges Perec In La Boutique Obscure Perec once again revolutionized literary form, creating the world’s first “nocturnal autobiography.” From 1968 until 1972—the period when he wrote his most well-known works—the beloved French stylist recorded his dreams. But as you might expect, his approach was far from orthodox. Avoiding the hazy psychoanalysis of most dream journals, he challenged himself to translate his visions and subconscious churnings directly into prose. In laying down the nonsensical leaps of the imagination, he finds new ways to express the texture and ambiguity of dreams—those qualities that prove so elusive. Beyond capturing a universal experience for the first time and being a fine document of literary invention, La Boutique Obscure contains the seeds of some of Perec’s most famous books. It is also an intimate portrait of one of the great innovators of modern literature.
