Book Last Waltz of the Tyrants

Download or read book Last Waltz of the Tyrants written by Ramtha Ramtha and published by JZK Publishing. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is in your future? What is coming on the horizon for our planet and our civilization? How can you be better prepared for change? Ramtha has been teaching about the days to come -- the days that are already here -- since his first appearance in the late 1970s. Last Waltz of the Tyrants, the Prophecy REVISITED, captures Ramtha s teachings and predictions over twenty years ago that describe the drastic changes that are coming from natural upheaval to economic and political turmoil. Ramtha explains the forces behind these changes and the many events throughout history -- including our near future -- which have been carefully planned out by a few. Many things Ramtha predicted three decades ago can clearly be confirmed in many of today s news headlines, yet there is more to come, according to Ramtha. Although the future may seem daunting and grim, Ramtha forecasts a greater destiny in the making with the help of advanced civilizations who love humanity: the dawning of superconsciousness -- a new age -- and a more evolved human race. This destiny -- those changes I talked about so long ago in your time -- is coming into full manifestation. Go and look at them. What sounds common to you now was uncommon then. -- Ramtha July 1992

Download or read book Without Criteria written by Steven Shaviro and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Deleuzian reading of Whitehead and a Whiteheadian reading of Deleuze open the possibility of a critical aesthetics of contemporary culture. In Without Criteria, Steven Shaviro proposes and explores a philosophical fantasy: imagine a world in which Alfred North Whitehead takes the place of Martin Heidegger. What if Whitehead, instead of Heidegger, had set the agenda for postmodern thought? Heidegger asks, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” Whitehead asks, “How is it that there is always something new?” In a world where everything from popular music to DNA is being sampled and recombined, argues Shaviro, Whitehead's question is the truly urgent one. Without Criteria is Shaviro's experiment in rethinking postmodern theory, especially the theory of aesthetics, from a point of view that hearkens back to Whitehead rather than Heidegger. In working through the ideas of Whitehead and Deleuze, Shaviro also appeals to Kant, arguing that certain aspects of Kant's thought pave the way for the philosophical “constructivism” embraced by both Whitehead and Deleuze. Kant, Whitehead, and Deleuze are not commonly grouped together, but the juxtaposition of them in Without Criteria helps to shed light on a variety of issues that are of concern to contemporary art and media practices.

Book Leningrad  Siege and Symphony

Download or read book Leningrad Siege and Symphony written by Brian Moynahan and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “gripping story” of a Nazi blockade, a Russian composer, and a ragtag band of musicians who fought to keep up a besieged city’s morale (The New York Times Book Review). For 872 days during World War II, the German Army encircled the city of Leningrad—modern-day St. Petersburg—in a military operation that would cripple the former capital and major Soviet industrial center. Palaces were looted and destroyed. Schools and hospitals were bombarded. Famine raged and millions died, soldiers and innocent civilians alike. Against the backdrop of this catastrophe, historian Brian Moynahan tells the story of Dmitri Shostakovich, whose Seventh Symphony was first performed during the siege and became a symbol of defiance in the face of fascist brutality. Titled “Leningrad” in honor of the city and its people, the work premiered on August 9, 1942—with musicians scrounged from frontline units and military bands, because only twenty of the orchestra’s hundred members had survived. With this compelling human story of art and culture surviving amid chaos and violence, Leningrad: Siege and Symphony “brings new depth and drama to a key historical moment” (Booklist, starred review), in “a narrative that is by turns painful, poignant and inspiring” (Minneapolis Star-Tribune). “He reaches into the guts of the city to extract some humanity from the blood and darkness, and at its best Leningrad captures the heartbreak, agony and small salvations in both death and survival . . . Moynahan’s descriptions of the battlefield, which also draw from the diaries of the cold, lice-ridden, hungry combatants, are haunting.” —The Washington Post

Book Crossfire

    Book Details:
  • Author : Roberta Johnson
  • Publisher : University Press of Kentucky
  • Release : 2014-07-11
  • ISBN : 0813149673
  • Pages : 247 pages

Download or read book Crossfire written by Roberta Johnson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-07-11 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The marriage of philosophy and fiction in the first third of Spain's twentieth century was a fertile one. It produced some truly notable offspring—novels that cross genre boundaries to find innovative forms, and treatises that fuse literature and philosophy in new ways. In her illuminating interdisciplinary study of Spanish fiction of the "Silver Age," Roberta Johnson places this important body of Spanish literature in context through a synthesis of social, literary, and philosophical history. Her examination of the work of Miguel de Unamuno, Pio Baroja, Azorin, Ramon Perez de Ayala, Juan Ramon Jimenez, Gabriel Miro, Pedro Salinas, Rosa Chacel, and Benjamin Jarnes brings to light philosophical frictions and debates and opens new interpersonal and intertextual perspectives on many of the period's most canonical novels. Johnson reformulates the traditional discussion of generations and "isms" by viewing the period as an intergenerational complex in which writers with similar philosophical and personal interests constituted dynamic groupings that interacted and constantly defined and redefined one another. Current narratological theories, including those of Todorov, Genette, Bakhtin, and Martinez Bonati, assist in teasing out the intertextual maneuvers and philosophical conflicts embedded in the novels of the period, while the sociological and biographical material bridges the philosophical and literary analyses. The result, solidly grounded in original archival research, is a convincingly complete picture of Spain's intellectual world in the first thirty years of this century. Crossfire should revolutionize thinking about the Generation of '98 and the Generation of '14 by identifying the heterogeneous philosophical sources of each and the writers' reactions to them in fiction.

Book A Master s Key for Manipulating Time

Download or read book A Master s Key for Manipulating Time written by Ramtha and published by Ramtha's School of the Mind. This book was released on 2002 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We rearrange the past every time we manifest, every time we manifest. You never take a pot of gold out of Fort Knox. That would be robbery. But anytime you want to manifest gold that has got a minted mark on it that is acceptable as currency, then you are rearranging the past and your involvement in past events that happened thirty, forty, fifty years ago, and suddenly you are going to live an event that brings you that gold. And all the history books will be rewritten, and one day you will open up and see that you are one of the people involved in it. Of course you didn't know that now because it is yet to be rewritten. So the study then of the Great Work is to manipulate reality and evolve it. - Ramtha

Book Poetry in Pieces

  • Author : Michelle Clayton
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2011-01-10
  • ISBN : 0520948289
  • Pages : 682 pages

Download or read book Poetry in Pieces written by Michelle Clayton and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-01-10 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set against the cultural and political backdrop of interwar Europe and the Americas, Poetry in Pieces is the first major study of the Peruvian poet César Vallejo (1892–1938) to appear in English in more than thirty years. Vallejo lived and wrote in two distinct settings—Peru and Paris—which were continually crisscrossed by new developments in aesthetics, politics, and practices of everyday life; his poetry and prose therefore need to be read in connection with modernity in all its forms and spaces. Michelle Clayton combines close readings of Vallejo’s writings with cultural, historical, and theoretical analysis, connecting Vallejo—and Latin American poetry—to the broader panorama of international modernism and the avant-garde, and to writers and artists such as Rainer Maria Rilke, James Joyce, Georges Bataille, and Charlie Chaplin. Poetry in Pieces sheds new light on one of the key figures in twentieth-century Latin American literature, while exploring ways of rethinking the parameters of international lyric modernity.

Book The Brain   The Creator of Reality and a Lofty Life

Download or read book The Brain The Creator of Reality and a Lofty Life written by Ramtha and published by . This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this second book of Ramtha's wisdom by Hun Nal Ye Publishing, we present to you a collection of some of the most poignant and riveting Ramtha teachings on the brain and the art of how to activate it and realize its grandest potential. "The brain clearly is the most necessary element to a God because without it there is no dream. Without the brain holding the dream, taking a bit of consciousness and then constructing it, we do not evolve." "The more you contemplate a lofty thought - a philosophical, lofty thought, no matter how mundane or outrageous it may be - your brain is constructing a model, an idea, and sets it right in the frontal lobe. Whatever makes it to this precious place becomes law." - Ramtha This book is divided into three parts. The first one, entitled "How the Brain Creates Reality," sets the stage and describes the various parts of the brain and nervous system involved in creating reality. Ramtha shows how this is actually happening all the time and describes in detail what it takes for us to develop the art of willful thought and observation. The second and central part of this book is entitled "Opening the Door to the Deep Subconscious." This part is key, as it explains many ancient mysteries about the power of the divine residing within each human being. Ramtha explains that the hidden door to divine intelligence and the power of creation is an actual part and natural function of the human brain. Finally, the third part of the book, "On the Wings of a Lofty Thought," is an inspiring invitation to strive for a greater mind that in turn produces a more magnificent life naturally. This is the knowledge legendary Masters and historical people of renown discovered and came to know in their life. Ramtha masterfully evolves the concept of conquering one's self and slaying the dragon in this second book that was first introduced in our first book, The Mind Gladiators of the Future. The conquest of the initiate now becomes the raising to the head of the fabled kundalini energy coiled at the base of the spine - the dormant raw energy of the dragon - in order to open that hidden door of the subconscious mind and activate those latent regions of the brain designed for extraordinary potential and enlightenment.

Book Cecilia Vald  s or El Angel Hill

Download or read book Cecilia Vald s or El Angel Hill written by Cirilo Villaverde and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-29 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cecilia Valdés is arguably the most important novel of 19th century Cuba. Originally published in New York City in 1882, Cirilo Villaverde's novel has fascinated readers inside and outside Cuba since the late 19th century. In this new English translation, a vast landscape emerges of the moral, political, and sexual depravity caused by slavery and colonialism. Set in the Havana of the 1830s, the novel introduces us to Cecilia, a beautiful light-skinned mulatta, who is being pursued by the son of a Spanish slave trader, named Leonardo. Unbeknownst to the two, they are the children of the same father. Eventually Cecilia gives in to Leonardo's advances; she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a baby girl. When Leonardo, who gets bored with Cecilia after a while, agrees to marry a white upper class woman, Cecilia vows revenge. A mulatto friend and suitor of hers kills Leonardo, and Cecilia is thrown into prison as an accessory to the crime. For the contemporary reader Helen Lane's masterful translation of Cecilia Valdés opens a new window into the intricate problems of race relations in Cuba and the Caribbean. There are the elite social circles of European and New World Whites, the rich culture of the free people of color, the class to which Cecilia herself belonged, and then the slaves, divided among themselves between those who were born in Africa and those who were born in the New World, and those who worked on the sugar plantation and those who worked in the households of the rich people in Havana. Cecilia Valdés thus presents a vast portrait of sexual, social, and racial oppression, and the lived experience of Spanish colonialism in Cuba.

Book The Culture of Literacy

Download or read book The Culture of Literacy written by Wlad Godzich and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the onset of modernity in the sixteenth century, literature and history were wrenched apart. Wlad Godzich, one of the animators of the turn toward literary theory, seeks to restore historical consciousness to criticism after a period of its painful repression. In this sweeping study, he considers the emergence of the modern state, the institutions and disciplines of culture and learning, as well as the history of philosophy, the history of historiography, and literary history itself. He offers a powerful account of semiotics; an important critical perspective on narratology; a profound discussion of deconstruction; and many brief, practical demonstrations of why Kant, Hegel, Heidegger, and de Man remain essential resources for contemporary critical thought. The culture of literacy is on the wane, Godzich argues. Throughout the modern period, language has been the institution that provided the condition of possibility for all other institutions, from university to church to state. but the pervasive crisis of meaning we now experience is the result of a shift in the modes of production of knowledge. The culture of literacy has been faced with transformations it cannot accommodate, and the existing organization of knowledge has been challenged. By wedding literature to a reflective practice of history, Godzich leads us toward a critique of political reason, and a profound sense of how postmodernity can overcome by deftly sidestepping the modern. This book will bring to a wider audience the work of a writer who is recognized as one of the most commanding figures of his generation for range, learning, and capacity of innovation.
