Mythology

Deep within each of us lies a spark of divinity waiting to be awakened. This inner divinity is our true essence, the source of our unconditional love, joy, and peace. It is the connection to something larger than ourselves, the wellspring of our creativity and wisdom.For too long, we have been disconnected from our inner divinity, lost in the noise and chaos of the outer world. We have become overwhelmed by stress, negativity, and doubt, forgetting the inherent power and light that resides within.But there is a rising tide of awakening. More and more people are yearning for a deeper connection to their spirituality, seeking meaning and purpose beyond the material world. They are joining the spiritual revolution, a movement that is transforming the world one awakened heart at a time.¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿. ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿. ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿. ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿.¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿. ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿. ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿.

"What was believable in one era is no longer acceptable in another. What one culture finds utterly incredible elsewhere becomes an article of faith. This disjuncture forms the basis of Peter Harrison's masterful, expansive intervention in intellectual history, as he challenges misconceptions about modernity in relation to supernaturalism and belief"--

»Was für ein schändliches Laster ist das Lügen! [...] Dass mein Ahnherr [...] einmal in seinem Leben die Wahrheit sagte, und niemand ihm glauben wollte, das hat bei dreihundert Menschen das Leben gekostet. « Wahrheit oder Lüge? Die Geschichten vom Lügenbaron begeistern schon seit Jahrhunderten Jung und Alt. In dieser Bearbeitung der alten Geschichten erzählt der Enkel von Münchhausen auf dem Gut eines verarmten Barons dessen Geschichten einem gebannten Publikum - ob sie die Wahrheit oder Lüge beinhalten, ist schwer zu sagen. Der Autor Karl Immermann (1796-1840) war ursprünglich Jurist, hat aber schon in jungen Jahren Streitschriften gegen Studentenverbindungen verfasst und sich für Literatur und Kunst interessiert. Seine Bearbeitung ist gleichzeitig Unterhaltung und beißende Gesellschaftskritik. Das Besondere hier: Der Schriftsteller trifft mitten in der Geschichte selber auf den Protagonisten. Sie diskutieren über Wahrheit und Lüge. Auf den Spuren literarischer Größen von Goethe bis Heinrich Heine verfasste er sowohl Tragödien als auch Lustspiele.

In my first book the Nature Spirit, Moonpool, told of her interaction with the humans as they developed from the last Ice Age until just before the Roman Occupation. This follows on from there through the Roman Occupation, the Middle Ages and right up to the present day. As Christianity spreads there are times when Moonpool, because she is a Nature Spirit or a Pagan Fertility Goddess, is at odds with the established Church, yet she is simply a created spirit ranking slightly lower than the angels and higher than the fairies. She is more concerned with the people of the valley and continues to get involved with them. She prevents conflicts, she helps them through the Black Death, she helps with personal problems and she even solves a murder and saves men from being crushed while digging a railway tunnel. It is a story of friendship, of loss, sadness and joy. Moonpool knows that she will never be human but the one thing she wants is to be remembered, because in this age of climate change humanity needs the Nature Spirits more than ever. This may be called 'Moonpool Revelation' but there are more than one revelations in this book and much of our perceived history is challenged. You have to decide, is this a work of fiction, or have I been talking to a Nature Spirit?

Full of adventure, wonder, mischief, and magic, The Arabian Nights has enthralled readers for centuries. These are the tales that saved the life of the beautiful and clever Shahrazad, whose husband, the king, executed each of his wives after a single night of marriage. Beginning an enchanting story each evening, Shahrazad always withheld the ending, and the king spared her life for one more day so he could learn what happened. A thousand and one nights later, her life was spared forever.Folklorist Andrew Lang's rendition of these classic tales has been a favorite for more than a hundred years. Some of the best-known tales include those of the Merchant and the Genii, the Fisherman, Haroun-al-Raschid, Blind Baba Abdalla, Aladdin and his Wonderful Lamp, and, of course, the seven voyages of Sinbad the Sailor. Andrew Lang's retelling of these wonderful stories makes them suitable for children as well as adults to enjoy.

A classic work on the fascinating subject of traditional wakes in Ireland.

Stories are all around us.They're in the TV and movies we so adore, in the video games we play, and of course in the books we read. They're in newspapers and magazines, too; in the conversations we share with old friends, and with new ones. They're on our mobile phones, in aeroplanes, in submarines, and even in our dreams. Our obsession with, and craving for, stories rests squarely with the way we are so absorbed by them, just as it does with the way we don't need to continually consider how and why they work.Most of the time, when reading or listening to stories, we forget that these tales have been shaped through the passage of time. Like pebbles in a river smoothed by rushing waters, they were honed through centuries of telling and retelling.The stories contained in this anthology are a fragment of a tradition that has shaped humanity, just as it has been shaped by humanity.At The Scheherazade Foundation we regard stories and storytelling as an achievement of our species equal in significance to the development of language, art, and architecture.We invite you to dip into the tales in this small treasury - gleaned as they are from various corners of the world - to reflect about them, and to consider the wisdom they hold.

One particular characteristic though is that often the prince is rescued by the princess who has suffered much hardship in the journey to rescue the foolish male from the clutches of an ogre or a wicked crone. Stories include: The Five Brothers, The Giantess and the Granite Boat, The Faor and Dark Isolde, Fertram and Hildur.FLAME TREE 451: From mystery to crime, supernatural to horror and myth, fantasy and science fiction, Flame Tree 451 offers a healthy diet of werewolves and robots, mad scientists, secret worlds, lost civilizations and escapist fantasies.
