No summer classes, none of Granddad's intense expectations to live up to the family name. For generations, the Milbourn women have lead extraordinary lives—and died young and tragically. Granddad calls it a legacy, but Ivy considers it a curse. Why else would her mother have run off and abandoned her as a child?

Download or read book The Whooper Swan written by Mark Brazil and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2010-01-31 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first ever monograph on the Whooper Swan. This species is found in the northern Palearctic and is the world's most widely distributed swan. It is a familiar bird in northern Europe and across Asia to the far East, and is particularly noticeable when migrating between breeding and wintering grounds in large, noisy flocks. This migratory behaviour makes it a powerful symbol of seasonal change, and this, together with the bird's beautiful appearance, make it a popular subject of folklore and legend. For much of its range the Whooper Swan is the archetypal 'wild swan', and its voice and appearance is deeply evocative of time and place. This book looks at all aspects of the life and times of this enchanting bird. The book includes chapters on taxonomy, population, range and distribution, diet, breeding biology, behaviour, migratory behaviour and longevity, as well as taking a look at the swan's associations with our own species in history and legend and throughout its geographic range. This book is a brilliantly readable and exhaustively researched monograph. It is illustrated throughout with numerous photographs and line drawings, illustrating various aspects of the species' behaviour and morphology. It will appeal greatly to all those with an interest in birdwatching, especially those who already know something of this wonderful and inspirational bird.

Download or read book The Grace of the Italian Renaissance written by Ita Mac Carthy and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How grace shaped the Renaissance in Italy "Grace" emerges as a keyword in the culture and society of sixteenth-century Italy. The Grace of the Italian Renaissance explores how it conveys and connects the most pressing ethical, social and aesthetic concerns of an age concerned with the reactivation of ancient ideas in a changing world. The book reassesses artists such as Francesco del Cossa, Raphael and Michelangelo and explores anew writers like Castiglione, Ariosto, Tullia d'Aragona and Vittoria Colonna. It shows how these artists and writers put grace at the heart of their work. Grace, Ita Mac Carthy argues, came to be as contested as it was prized across a range of Renaissance Italian contexts. It characterised emerging styles in literature and the visual arts, shaped ideas about how best to behave at court and sparked controversy about social harmony and human salvation. For all these reasons, grace abounded in the Italian Renaissance, yet it remained hard to define. Mac Carthy explores what grace meant to theologians, artists, writers and philosophers, showing how it influenced their thinking about themselves, each other and the world. Ambitiously conceived and elegantly written, this book portrays grace not as a stable formula of expression but as a web of interventions in culture and society.
Download or read book Lalita Trishati written by V. Ravi and published by MANBLUNDER. This book was released on 2013-03-30 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shri Lalita Trishati, like Lalita Sahasranama is discussed in Lalitopakhyana of Brahmandapurana, which is in the form of conversation between Shri Hayagriva (an incarnation of Vishnu and is considered as the presiding God for knowledge) and sage Agastya, who is a great worshiper of Parashakti through his own Panchadashi mantra which is different from the regular Panchadashi mantra (composed by Manmatha, who is also known as Cupid). Trishata means three hundred. Shri Lalita Trishati consists of three hundred namas, carved out of fifty nine couplet verses. Shri Lalita Devi has four forms viz. gross form, Kamakala form, Kundalini form, and mantra form. All these forms are explained in Lalita Sahasranama such as kamakala rupa (322), kundalini (110), mantra-sara (846), mahamantra (227). She is worshiped in various gross forms such as Kali, Tara, Gayatri (420), Mahalakshmi (210), etc. Kamakala is Her subtler form, where She remains intimately with Shiva. Her kundalini form is the subtlest of all and if She is made to ascend, She rushes to the top of the head, sahasrara, where She spends intimate moments with Her Lord Shiva. Worshiping Her mantra form is known as Shri Vidya. She represents all letters and words in the form of Shabdabrahman (Lalita Sahasranama 204 sarvamantra-svarupini). Each of Her gross form, such as Kali, Tara, etc as mentioned in Dashamahavidya, is worshipped with different mantras and these worships are known as Tantras. All the three hundred namas have been explained in detail by drawing references from Lalita Sahasranama , Upanishads, Saundaryalahari, Bhagavad Gita, etc. The namas are printed both in English and Sanskrit. Standard IAST format is used throughout this book.

Its images are of animals and it speaks of their sacred power in the very energy centers that translate light to form: the Chakras."—Orion Foxwood, author of The Faery Teachings "We humans love to ally ourselves with other animals, and Chakra Animals allows us to internalize the energies of fifty different beings while using the seven primary chakras as a road map. Angelica Stuart provides an introduction to these valuable relationships, helping the reader to understand some of the ways in which the animals can guide us through personal growth and spiritual development."—Lupa, author of New Paths to Animal Totems
