Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " In A New Model of the Universe, written in 1914 and now published for the first time in French, P.D. Ouspensky describes his own quest for a form of truth concerning questions as fundamental as the place of man in the universe, the unknown, the invisible world, starting from the idea, always, that true civilization only exists in esotericism, and that modern Western civilization suffers from a profound barbarism due to the absence of esoteric thought. Calling on Christianity, Judaism, Eastern philosophies, the symbolism of the Tarot, experimental mysticism, the study of dreams, hypnotism, yoga, but also the sciences and in particular ancient physics and modern, the author attempts to answer the following questions: what form does the world have? Is the world a chaos or a system? Does the universe exist by accident or was it created according to a plan? A new model of the Universe responds to a growing need in late 20th century man to question his origins and the meaning of his existence by having recourse to ancient beliefs and traditions...."
Download or read book The Taj Mahal A History written by John David Cooper and published by New Word City. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has seen photographs of the Taj Mahal. The massive, bulbous central dome, the four slender minarets, the shimmering marble, the long reflecting pool, the manicured gardens - all seem too striking for adequate description and proper appreciation. But there is more to the Taj than its beauty. The world's best-known mausoleum celebrates the love story of the seventeenth-century Moghul emperor Shah Jahan and his queen, Mumtaz Mahal. They fell in love at first sight and were married for nineteen years. She ruled at his side as almost an equal, but her death in childbirth in 1631 left him wild with grief and determined to build a monument to their devotion. Behind this romantic tale is the saga of the Moghul emperors who swept into North India only a century earlier. By the time of Shah Jahan, they had established an absolute monarchy comparable to Louis XIV's. The Moghul court was rich, cruel, and omnipotent. As descendants of Tamerlane and Genghis Khan, they relished bloody combat, savage sports, and hideous torture of their victims. In the absence of primogeniture, brother fought brother for the throne - it was the law of the “throne or coffin.” But less than a century after Shah Jahan was deposed by his ruthless son, the dynasty was in decline and ripe for conquest by Great Britain. For a time, it seemed like the Taj - like the Moghuls - would vanish. Only in the twentieth century was the Taj restored to something of its former glory. Here is the dramatic and often tragic story of the Taj and the men and women of the dynasty that created it.
Download or read book The Life of John Berryman written by John Haffenden and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-01-30 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, The Life of John Berryman draws on extensive research in the USA and on an enormous collection of hitherto unpublished materials – journals, letters, stories and poetry –to build a biography that recounts in absorbing detail the public and private stages of John Berry man’s career. It also offers an intimate portrait of a creative artist: his compulsive self-presentation and self-reproach, his moral and artistic dilemmas, his dedication and his accomplishments. John Berryman occupies a central place among the outstanding poets of recent times. The course of his life ran between the extremes of personal degradation and artistic ecstasy. He suffered the early suicide of his father, the dominance of his mother, poverty and professional setbacks, psychiatric treatment, alcoholism, and sexual and spiritual vexation. He became an electrifying, fearful teacher and a loving, jealous friend. His mentors and close associates included Mark Van Doren, Richard Blackmur, Allen Tate, Robert Lowell and Saul Bellow. The years brought him spells of deep personal joy and artistic fulfilment, but all too heavy a hand of terrible suffering. The book will be an extremely interesting read for students of literature.
Download or read book Interpersonal Psychoanalysis and the Enigma of Consciousness written by Edgar A. Levenson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edgar A. Levenson is a key figure in the development of interpersonal psychoanalysis whose ideas remain influential. Interpersonal Psychoanalysis and the Enigma of Consciousness builds on his previously published work in his key areas of expertise such as interpersonal psychoanalysis, transference and countertransference, and the philosophy of psychoanalysis, and sets his ideas into contemporary context. Combining a selection of Levenson’s own writings with extensive discussion and analysis of his work by Stern and Slomowitz, it provides an invaluable guide to how his most recent, mature ideas may be understood and applied by contemporary psychoanalysts in their own practice. This book explores how the rational algorithm of psychoanalytic engagement and the mysterious flows of consciousness interact; this has traditionally been thought of as dialectical, an unresolvable duality in psychoanalytic practice. Analysts move back and forth between the two perspectives, rather like a gestalt leap, finding themselves listening either to the "interpersonal" or to the "intrapsychic" in what feels like a self-state leap. But the interpersonal is not in dialectical opposition to the intrapsychic; rather a manifestation of it, a subset. The chapters pick up from the themes explored in The Purloined Self, shifting the emphasis from the interpersonal field to the exploration of the enigma of the flow of consciousness that underlies the therapeutic process. This is not the Freudian Unconscious nor the consciousness of awareness, but the mysterious Jamesian matrix of being. Any effort at influence provokes resistance and refusal by the patient. Permitted a "working space," the patient ultimately cures herself. How that happens is a mystery wrapped up in the greater mystery of unconscious process, which in turn is wrapped into the greatest philosophical and neurological enigma of all—the nature of consciousness. Interpersonal Psychoanalysis and the Enigma of Consciousness will be highly engaging and readable; Levenson’s witty essayist style and original perspective will make it greatly appealing and accessible to undergraduate and postgraduate students of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy, as well as practitioners in these fields.

Download or read book H P Blavatsky A Great Betrayal written by Alice Leighton Cleather and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, often known as Madame Blavatsky, was a Russian author who co-founded the Theosophical Society in 1875. She gained an international following as the leading theoretician of Theosophy. This book is by one of her pupils, Alice Leighton Cleather. Cleather who had moved to India, writes to protest the goings on at the Theosophical society, chief among them the appointment of C. W. Leadbeater as the organisation's supreme esoteric teacher. Her opposition to this appointment is based on Leadbeater's questionable past, as well as the movement's deviation from the teachings of Madame Blavatsky.
Download or read book International Development Cooperation Today written by Patrick Develtere and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-14 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past 60 years high-income countries have invested over 4000 billion euros in development aid. With varying degrees of success, these investments in low-income countries contributed to tackling structural problems such as access to water, health care, and education. Today, however, international development cooperation is no longer restricted to helping by giving. Instead, it is rather about opportunities, mutual interests, risk taking, and an inclusive societal approach. With the arrival of major new actors such as China, India, and Brazil, and the manifestation of private companies and foundations like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, development aid is being eclipsed by new forms of international cooperation, increasingly accompanied by investments, trade, and give-and-take exchanges. The agenda for sustainable development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 and to be realised by 2030, is a case in point of new influential frameworks that usher in a global rather than a traditional North-South perspective. This book reviews 60 years of international development aid and its relevant actors, outlining today’s challenges and opportunities. Richly illustrated with case studies and examples, International Development Cooperation Today maps successes and failures and synthesises visions and discussions from all over the world. By pointing out the radical shift from the traditional North-South perspective to a global paradigm, this book is essential reading for all practitioners, academics, and donors involved in development aid.
