Book Leonard Cohen

Download or read book Leonard Cohen written by Harry Freedman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-05-14 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Leonard Cohen's music is studded with allusions to Jewish and Christian tradition, as well as Kabbalah and Zen. This book is about the ethos, origins, and traditions in Cohen's lyrics. He was as familiar with Christian traditions as he was Jewish. He is not concerned with confessional barriers, they simply impede access to the deep well of spiritual lore from which he draws. This is not a biography but a biographical narrative into the treatment of each song or theme, so that by the end the reader will in fact have a good understanding of Cohen's life story.

Book excerpt: In the boundless expanse of time, where the past, present, and future weave an intricate tapestry, lies a world unlike any we know. In this realm of wonders, the marvels of technology have unlocked the enigmatic gates of time travel, allowing daring souls to traverse the ages and glimpse history's most profound moments. It is a world where the ephemeral and the eternal dance in an eternal waltz, where love and destiny intertwine across centuries. Welcome to "Ephemeral Eternity", a tale that transcends time itself. Here, in the nexus of past and future, we encounter Dr. Nevaeh Sinclair, a visionary historian from the distant future, whose life takes an unforeseen turn when she finds herself inexplicably transported to the 19th century. Lost in time, she meets the passionate and enigmatic artist, Lennox Westwood, whose skepticism stands as a formidable barrier between them. As Nevaeh navigates the complexities of a foreign era, her heart becomes entangled with the vibrant artist. But in a world where they are separated by decades, the question arises: Is love destined to be but a fleeting moment, a mere brushstroke in the grand canvas of time? Will Nevaeh and Lennox defy the very essence of time itself to be eternally united, or will they learn to treasure the ephemeral beauty of each cherished second they share? Join us as we embark on an extraordinary journey through history and emotion, witnessing the clash of two souls from different epochs, who must choose between the allure of an everlasting bond and the captivating allure of ephemeral love. In "Ephemeral Eternity", we explore the essence of love, the enigma of time, and the eternal longing of the human heart. As the pages turn, be prepared to witness a love story that defies the limits of time and touches the deepest recesses of our souls.

Download or read book Eternal Ephemera written by Niles Eldredge and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All organisms and species are transitory, yet life endures. The origin, extinction, and evolution of species—interconnected in the web of life as "eternal ephemera"—are the concern of evolutionary biology. In this riveting work, renowned paleontologist Niles Eldredge follows leading thinkers as they have wrestled for more than two hundred years with the eternal skein of life composed of ephemeral beings, revitalizing evolutionary science with their own, more resilient findings. Eldredge begins in France with the naturalist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, who in 1801 first framed the overarching question about the emergence of new species. The Italian geologist Giambattista Brocchi followed, bringing in geology and paleontology to expand the question. In 1825, at the University of Edinburgh, Robert Grant and Robert Jameson introduced the astounding ideas formulated by Lamarck and Brocchi to a young medical student named Charles Darwin. Who can doubt that Darwin left for his voyage on the Beagle in 1831 filled with thoughts about these daring new explanations for the "transmutation" of species. Eldredge revisits Darwin's early insights into evolution in South America and his later synthesis of knowledge into a theory of the origin of species. He then considers the ideas of more recent evolutionary thinkers, such as George Gaylord Simpson, Ernst Mayr, and Theodosius Dobzhansky, as well as the young and brash Niles Eldredge and Steven Jay Gould, who set science afire with their concept of punctuated equilibria. Filled with insights into evolutionary biology and told with a rich affection for the scientific arena, this book celebrates the organic, vital relationship between scientific thinking and its subjects.

Book excerpt: When a jaded romance writer takes up horseback riding as research for her latest project, she joins up with a horse on an accidental journey that will challenge everything she knows about love... Enter into New Jersey's legendary horse country, where wealthy women, six-figure performance horses, and elite show barns are part of the natural landscape. It's into this white-gloved arena that Clarissa Stamos, a reclusive, midlife romance writer is thrust when she decides to write a country-western romance. The only problem is-she's never been on a horse. Clarissa signs up for riding lessons and finds relief from her troubled marriage and her darkest secrets in the company of horses who offer an intoxicating sense of freedom and daring. Before long, she impulsively buys an ex-rodeo horse who spurs her to take charge of her own destiny-or wind up in the dust. Complicating matters is an intriguing, Argentinian dressage trainer with secrets of his own. One part romance novel, one part literary fiction, one part love-affair-with-horses, Ephemeral is told from the viewpoint of a quirky, old cow horse who not only invites you into his world, but also shares his sensible and soulful outlook on human hearts and the meaning of true horsemanship.

Book The Ephemeral Age

Download or read book The Ephemeral Age written by Byron Rizzo and published by Byron Rizzo. This book was released on with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The disposable culture of the Internet, condensed into an equally fleeting and easy-to-read book. The legacy we are leaving may be as weak as the volatile magnetic memories in which we back it up. But have we ever thought about that? We live in perpetual change, but it seems to accelerate more and more. From smartphones to screens, computers, and devices, they all last less in our hands. Almost like the same applications we use, which delete photos and videos in 24 hours or before. It is not a coincidence. Personalities and celebrities who are born in the morning and at night are already forgotten. All silent witnesses of a superfluous, momentary time that does not wait for anyone. Symbols of the incessant bustle that, far from being the exception, are the norm of our modernity. From the virtual neighborhoods in Geocities to the ubiquitous story modes that plague all applications today, ephemeral by default. Increasingly virtual and digital realities, which blur the difference between the real world and the computer world. This little book is a series of quick reflections to help us understand that volatility is both technological, as well as a reflection of the stormy and restless contemporary human soul. The result of a turbulent time of which, perhaps, no memory will remain.

Book You are Therefore I am

Download or read book You are Therefore I am written by Satish Kumar and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traces the spiritual journey of the author, as he learns to view the world as a network of multiple, diverse relationships. René Descartes' famous maxim 'I think, therefore, I am' considers the world in terms of dualism, division and separation. Yet the Sanskrit dictum, So Hum, is well known across India but not in the West, and can be translated as 'You are, therefore I am'. A journey of the mind, You are Therefore I am examines the sources of inspiration which formed child monk, peace pilgrim, ecological activist and educator Satish Kumar's understanding of the world as a network of diverse yet interconnected relationships. Written in four parts, the book begins with Satish's memories of conversations with his mother, his teacher and his Guru, all of whom were deeply religious. The second part recounts his discussions with the Indian sage Vinoba Bhave, J. Krishnamurti, Bertrand Russell, Martin Luther King, and E. F. Schumacher. These five great activists and thinkers encouraged him to engage with social, ecological and political issues. In the third part Satish narrates his travels in India, which have continued to nourish his mind and reconnect him with his roots. The final part brings together Satish' world-view, which is based in relationships and the connections between all things. You are, Therefore I am is an inspiring and deeply moving look at how we can re-connect with the world and find peace within ourselves by embracing Satish' emergent world-view.
