In these thirty letters, Alan Macfarlane answers his granddaughter's questions about how the world works, how it got to be as it is, what it could be, and where she fits in. Lily's enquiries range from the intimate, personal and moral to the political, social and philosophical. What is the nature of good and evil? What is religion? How can I be truly me? Is right and wrong the same wherever you are? What is beauty? Does there have to be torture? Does money matter? Is knowledge always good? What is progress? What is truth? What is sex? Is democracy a good idea? These are just a few of the questions. In responding to Lily's challenging problems, Alan Macfarlane, from a lifetime's experience as a historian, anthropologist and teacher, ranges through history and across the world's cultures. Her questions are timeless. His answers add up to a classic. |

| lily's number puzzles: The Indian Lily and Other Stories Hermann Sudermann, 2019-12-09 The Indian Lily and Other Stories is a set of short stories by Hermann Sudermann. Sudermann was a German dramatist and novelist. Excerpt: Around the hour of afternoon tea Niebeldingk, true to a dear, old habit, went to see his friend. She inhabited a small second-floor apartment in the Regentenstrasse which he had himself selected for her when she came as a stranger to Berlin. With flowers and palms and oriental rugs she had moulded a delicious retreat, and before her bed-room windows the nightingales sang in the springtime. She seemed to be expecting him. In the great, raised bay, separated from the rest of the drawing-room by a thicket of dark leaves, the stout tea-urn was already expectantly humming. In a bright, girlish dress, devoid of coquetry or pouting, Alice came to meet him. I'm glad you're here again, Richard. That was all. He wanted to launch out into the tale which he had meant to tell her, but she cut him short. |

| lily's number puzzles: Bailey's Seabreeze Treasure Quest AQEEL AHMED, 2023-11-05 Bailey the Pup and the Buried Treasure is a sweet story for kids that takes place in Seabreeze Cove, a small beach town. The stars of the story are Lily, Bailey's owner and best friend, and Bailey, a Golden Retriever who likes to explore. They fit together perfectly because they are always looking for fun and new things to do. Every day feels like a brand-new, exciting adventure for them. As they walk along the beach one sunny morning, Bailey's nose picks up a scent that is different from the smell of the water and the salty air. This scent starts their most recent trip. Because Bailey has such a great sense of smell, their trips have always been exciting, and this time is no different. They start their adventure when they find a treasure map partly buried in the sand. The map has beautiful pictures of a tall lighthouse, a delicate seashell, and palm trees. The map shows big experiences and hidden things that need to be found. The map in hand and a strong will to find the hidden treasure in Seabreeze Cove gave Lily and Bailey the courage to go. They visit other places on the map that their travels lead them to, like a grove of palm trees, a beautiful lighthouse, and a quiet bay full of seashells. They have setbacks and disappointments along the way, but their friendship and drive help them get through it. Finally, they find a treasure chest hidden in the sand of the faraway cove. Their finding backs up the idea that what makes them valuable is their friendship and the fun things they do together. They find many beautiful seashells and pearls inside the chest, along with a note that says, The real treasure is the adventures you share and the love you hold. As Lily and Bailey go home with their new finds, they think about the day and decide that their best quality is their friendship. When the story ends, they are sound asleep, dreaming of new experiences. They are sure that their friendship will always be a treasure, no matter where their travels take them. Bailey the Pup and the Buried Treasure is a story about excitement, friendship, and the fun of finding something new. It teaches kids about the importance of working together, having lasting friendships, and the strong bond between a child and her dog. This is how the story starts: Bailey was a smart and brave puppy who used to live in Seabreeze Cove, a cute seaside town. As a Golden Retriever, Bailey was full of life and had a great sense of fun. He had so much energy and could make every day an exciting experience and his family loved him. Between the wide ocean and the rising hills is Seabreeze Cove, a lovely place to hide away. Along the gravel roads were cute homes with gardens full of bright flowers that looked like they were dancing in the light sea breeze. The quiet people who lived in Seabreeze Cove loved their peaceful life, and Bailey, the active and daring dog, made the neighborhood a lot of fun. Bailey's boundless energy comes from his owner, a sweet little girl named Lily. As soon as Lily and Bailey met, they fell in love and couldn't be apart. They became best friends and stories about them spread all over Seabreeze Cove. Bailey was a wonderful dog who loved life very much. Even the dullest days could be turned into amazing trips with his magic. Bailey's eyes would light up with joy every morning as the sun rose over the sparkling water, and he would kiss Lily awake, eager to start their new journey. Lily and Bailey were always happy and excited when they got to Seabreeze Cove because they saw each day as a new adventure to be found. Lily and Bailey would start their trips together as the sun rose, making the sky a world of pink and gold. The ritual brought them closer together because it promised them excitement and new things every day. The sandy beach of the cove was where they played. It was a big space where they could run and chase birds for as long as they wanted. Bailey would run on the sand, leaving paw prints that showed where they had been, and his happy barks would fill the air. Lily would laugh as she looked at her loyal friend. His golden coat would shine like a happy star in the warm sun. They loved rolling around in the soft, foamy sea foam because it tickled their skin and made them want to play. The smooth salt air carried by the sea breeze made people dream of faraway places and riches that haven't been found yet. Early explorers felt the same way when they went out into the unknown: full of excitement. Lily and Bailey were no different. Their travels took them to places they hadn't been before, where rocks and sand met suddenly. Lily and Bailey would look into these secret places with awe and amazement, saying they would find buried wonders. They gathered seashells of every color you can think of driftwood with stories about the sea, and their footprints to show that they had been in these remote places of the world. Lily was interested in Bailey for hours because he was always asking questions, and he seemed to have endless energy. He would follow his nose as he looked into the secrets of the beach, checking out every nook and cranny. Lily would follow him, and her heart would burst with gratitude for her brave puppy. |

| lily's number puzzles: The Lily's Tongue Frances Maughan-Brown, 2019-09-24 How do texts speak with authority? That is the question at the heart of Kierkegaard's theory and practice of indirect communication. None of Kierkegaard's texts respond to this question more concisely and powerfully than the four discourses he wrote about the lily in the Gospel. The Lily's Tongue is a nuanced, sustained reading of these Lily Discourses. Kierkegaard takes the lilies as authoritative, rather than merely figural or metaphorical. This book is a careful exploration of what Kierkegaard means by this authority. Frances Maughan-Brown demonstrates how Kierkegaard argues that the key is in the act of reading itself—no text can have authority unless the reader grants it that authority because no text can entirely avoid figural language. Texts don't speak directly; their tongue is always the lily's tongue. What is revealed in the Lily Discourses is a groundbreaking theory of figure, which requires a renewed reading of Kierkegaard's major pseudonymous works. |

| lily's number puzzles: Lily's Promise Lily Ebert, Dov Forman, 2022-05-10 INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In this life-affirming intergenerational memoir, Lily Ebert, a Holocaust survivor, and her great-grandson, Dov Forman, come together to share her story—an unforgettable tale of resilience and resistance. On Yom Kippur, 1944, fighting to stay alive as a prisoner in Auschwitz, Lily Ebert made a promise to herself. She would survive the hell she was in and tell the world her story, for everyone who couldn’t. Now, at ninety-eight, this remarkable woman—and TikTok sensation, thanks to the help of her eighteen-year-old great-grandson—fulfills that vow, relaying the details of her harrowing experiences with candor, charm, and an overflowing heart. In these pages, she writes movingly about her happy childhood in Hungary, the death of her mother and two youngest siblings on their arrival at Auschwitz, and her determination to keep her two other sisters safe. She describes the inhumanity of the camp and the small acts of defiance that gave her strength. Lily lost so much, but she built a new life for herself and her family, first in Israel and then in London. Dov knows that it is up to younger people like him to keep Lily’s promise. He and Lily bridge the generation gap to share her experience, reminding us of the joy that accompanies the solemn responsibility of keeping the past—and our stories—alive. |
