| mirage riddle: The Curious History of the Riddle Marcel Danesi Ph.D., 2020-05-05 The Curious History of the Riddle investigates the fascinating origin and history of the riddle, from the very first riddle (the Riddle of the Sphinx) to the twenty-first century, with riddles found in pop culture, including movies (Us), television shows (Game of Thrones) video games, and escape rooms. Riddles are ageless, timeless, and so common that we hardly ever reflect upon what they are and how they originated. Most importantly, their invention helped in the development of lateral thinking, the form of thinking that is the foundation of all kinds of discoveries, from mathematics to science and beyond. In The Curious History of the Riddle, puzzle expert Marcel Danesi delves deep into the riddle's origin and history and covers these fascinating topics: 1. The Riddle of the Sphinx: Origins, Legends, Patterns What creature walks on all fours at dawn, two at midday, and three at twilight? (answer: man) 2. The Greek Anthology and the Exeter Book: Medieval Views and Uses of Riddles This chapter looks at the spread of the riddle in recreational and educational contexts. 3. The Merry Book of Riddles: Riddles in the Renaissance By the late Renaissance, riddles were being tailored more and more to produce humorous or whimsical effects. 4. Enigmas, Charades, and Conundrums: Riddles from the 1600s to the Twentieth Century After the Renaissance, riddles had become virtually every literate European person’s favorite form of recreation, and were included as regular features of many newspapers and periodicals 5. The Twentieth Century: Riddles as Children’s Literature In the twentieth century, riddles became specialized for children, spreading throughout children’s literature and educational manuals. 6. The Twentieth and Twenty-First Centuries: Riddles Go to the Movies and Online In this chapter, the focus is on riddles in various entertainment media, from best-selling novels such as Harry Potter, to movies, such as the Batman series. 7. Connections: Riddles and Rebuses This chapter explores the structure of rebuses as visual riddles, connecting them historically. Part history book, part puzzle book, The Curious History of the Riddle is fully illustrated with over 200 riddles interspersed throughout the text for solving. |

| mirage riddle: Understanding Russian Strategic Behavior Graeme P. Herd, 2022-01-27 This book examines the extent to which Russia’s strategic behavior is the product of its imperial strategic culture and Putin’s own operational code. The work argues that, by conflating personalistic regime survival with national security, Putin ensures that contemporary Russian national interest, as expressed through strategic behavior, is the synthesis of a peculiar troika: a long-standing imperial strategic culture, rooted in a partially imagined past; the operational code of a counter-intelligence president and decision-making elite; and the realities of Russia as a hybrid state. The book first examines the role of structure and agency in shaping contemporary Russian strategic behavior. It then provides a conceptual understanding of strategic culture, and applies this to Tsarist and Soviet historical developments. The book’s analysis of the operational code, however, demonstrates that Putinism is more than the sum of the past. At the end, the book assesses Putin’s statecraft and stress-tests our assumptions about the exercise of contemporary power in Russia and the structure of Putin’s agency. This book will be of interest to students of Russian politics and foreign policy, strategic studies and international relations. |

| mirage riddle: The Mirage Warden Lynn Valdez, 2024-12-05 For generations, the Mirage Wardens of Sahari have woven illusions of breathtaking complexity, hiding their desert kingdom from a world greedy for its power. Their mirages aren't mere tricks of light; they are living tapestries woven with the souls of past Wardens, a beautiful prison built on secrets and sacrifice. Seventeen-year-old Elara Anir, poised to inherit this legacy, feels the crushing weight of these secrets. She yearns for truth, a dangerous desire in a city built on lies. When Kaelen Thorne, a reckless cartographer, stumbles upon the legendary lost city of Zerzura, Sahari's carefully constructed world shatters. The city, once hidden, becomes a beacon, drawing those hungry for power and those desperate for sanctuary. Elara must restore the broken mirage, a task that forces her into an uneasy alliance with two unlikely companions. Eryk Valen, a scholar haunted by a family tragedy linked to Sahari’s hidden past, sees Zerzura not as a threat but as a key. He believes the city holds answers to questions that have plagued him for years, answers intertwined with the Wardens and their tragic secrets. Safira Rais, a desert rogue marked by betrayal, carries the forbidden knowledge of Zerzura’s hidden paths, a map etched onto her skin through painful djinn rituals. Her cynicism clashes with Elara’s idealism, but her survival instincts are their only hope in a desert teeming with ancient sandstorms and nomadic tribes who view the Wardens’ magic with suspicion. Their journey to Zerzura is a trial by fire. Whispers in the wind reveal forgotten betrayals and ancient pacts, while the desert itself seems to test their resolve. Elara learns the mirages are not just shields, but a living memory, and with every illusion she weaves, her power grows, but so does her understanding of the deceptive foundations of her world. Within Zerzura’s crumbling walls, they discover a history far more personal – and dangerous – than any of them imagined. A prophecy tied to Elara's bloodline doesn't paint her as a savior, but as a destroyer. As Elara wrestles with this devastating truth, a new threat emerges: Malkor, a power-hungry sorcerer who seeks to control Zerzura and reshape the world in his image. Caught in a desperate struggle for Zerzura's fate, Elara must confront not only Malkor’s relentless ambition, but also her own internal conflict. Will she uphold the lies of her ancestors or forge a new path? The fate of Sahari, and perhaps the world, hangs in the balance. Her choice will determine whether Zerzura remains a beacon of hope or becomes a weapon of unimaginable destruction. |

| mirage riddle: Wittgenstein and Heidegger David Egan, Stephen Reynolds, Aaron Wendland, 2013-07-18 Ludwig Wittgenstein and Martin Heidegger are arguably the two most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Their work not only reshaped the philosophical landscape, but also left its mark on other disciplines, including political science, theology, anthropology, ecology, mathematics, cultural studies, literary theory, and architecture. Both sought to challenge the assumptions governing the traditions they inherited, to question the very terms in which philosophy’s problems had been posed, and to open up new avenues of thought for thinkers of all stripes. And despite considerable differences in style and in the traditions they inherited, the similarities between Wittgenstein and Heidegger are striking. Comparative work of these thinkers has only increased in recent decades, but no collection has yet explored the various ways in which Wittgenstein and Heidegger can be drawn into dialogue. As such, these essays stage genuine dialogues, with aspects of Wittgenstein’s elucidations answering or problematizing aspects of Heidegger’s, and vice versa. The result is a broad-ranging collection of essays that provides a series of openings and provocations that will serve as a reference point for future work that draws on the writings of these two philosophers. |
| mirage riddle: The Importance of Being Fuzzy Arturo Sangalli, 2018-06-05 How has computer science changed mathematical thinking? In this first ever comprehensive survey of the subject for popular science readers, Arturo Sangalli explains how computers have brought a new practicality to mathematics and mathematical applications. By using fuzzy logic and related concepts, programmers have been able to sidestep the traditional and often cumbersome search for perfect mathematical solutions to embrace instead solutions that are good enough. If mathematicians want their work to be relevant to the problems of the modern world, Sangalli shows, they must increasingly recognize the importance of being fuzzy. As Sangalli explains, fuzzy logic is a technique that allows computers to work with imprecise terms--to answer questions with maybe rather than just yes and no. The practical implications of this flexible type of mathematical thinking are remarkable. Japanese programmers have used fuzzy logic to develop the city of Sendai's unusually energy-efficient and smooth-running subway system--one that does not even require drivers. Similar techniques have been used in fields as diverse as medical diagnosis, image understanding by robots, the engineering of automatic transmissions, and the forecasting of currency exchange rates. Sangalli also explores in his characteristically clear and engaging manner the limits of classical computing, reviewing many of the central ideas of Turing and Godel. He shows us how genetic algorithms can solve problems by an evolutionary process in which chance plays a fundamental role. He introduces us to neural networks, which recognize ill-defined patterns without an explicit set of rules--much as a dog can be trained to scent drugs without ever having an exact definition of drug. Sangalli argues that even though fuzziness and related concepts are often compared to human thinking, they can be understood only through mathematics--but the math he uses in the book is straightforward and easy to grasp. Of equal appeal to specialists and the general reader, The Importance of Being Fuzzy reveals how computer science is changing both the nature of mathematical practice and the shape of the world around us. |

| mirage riddle: Natalja's Stories Inger Christensen, 2025-05-27 A brilliant, elegant, and playful novella newly in English by “one of Denmark’s most honored poets” (Publishers Weekly) Known primarily for her poetry, Inger Christensen (1935-2009) remains one of Denmark’s most distinguished and original authors. Natalja’s Stories, modeled after Boccaccio’s Decameron, takes an usual approach to the theme of migration by focusing on the shifting ground of meaning itself. It is a tale told to the narrator by her grandmother—about her mother, abducted by a Russian from Copenhagen: taken to Russia, she tries to flee the Revolution; she dies and her ashes are carried back to Denmark. But the story is told and retold in marvelous ways, digressing playfully (often hilariously), and involving murders and absurd characters, with wonderful repeating motifs and passages. Natalja’s Stories springs surprise after surprise, and as one Danish critic put it: “instead of a conventional heartbreaking story of loss and disaster, the book appears as a tantalizing account of a character seizing the moment, leaving the past behind, and becoming someone else—offering, in fact, a deconstruction of the usual take on migrant fate as a tragic narrative.” |

| mirage riddle: Warrant and Proper Function Alvin Plantinga, 1993-05-27 In this companion volume to Warrant: The Current Debate, Alvin Plantinga develops an original approach to the question of epistemic warrant; that is what turns true belief into knowledge. He argues that what is crucial to warrant is the proper functioning of one's cognitive faculties in the right kind of cognitive environment. Although this book is in some sense a sequel to its companion volume, the arguments do not presuppose those of the first book and it stands alone as a stimulating contribution to epistemology. |

| mirage riddle: Frank & Ava John Brady, 2015-10-13 The love story of Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner has been told piecemeal, from one side or the other, but has never been fully explored or explained-until now.The story begins in Hollywood's golden age when Ava, ever insecure, was emerging as a movie star. But she fell in (and out of) love too easily. Mickey Rooney married her as a conquest. Artie Shaw treated her like a dumb brunette. Neither marriage lasted a year. Then, after being courted by Howard Hughes and others, along came Sinatra, who was battling his own insecurities-MGM fired him, his record company dropped him, and no one seemed to want him, except Ava.Their encounter led to an affair that broke all the rules of the prudish era. Frank was married with children. Their reputations could be ruined if this got out-and it did, as Frank left his family and pursued Ava across Europe while she taunted him. They married, but then came quarrels, separations, and reconciliations. Finally, there was a divorce, but even afterwards their long, hot, messy, glorious, painful romance stretched right to the finish line.Thoroughly researched and reported, Frank & Ava is not another storybook version of a Hollywood romance but a compelling drama of love and emotional war that left two iconic celebrities wounded for life. |
| mirage riddle: The Tragic Paradox Leonard Moss, 2014-03-24 How do an author’s techniques establish the recurring paradox raised by the tragic genre? I have called upon the valuable arguments offered by Plato, Aristotle, Hegel, and Nietzsche to help the student and lay reader understand the operation of basic literary languages. But fiction is not philosophy. My study focuses on the narrative sequence, im-ages, and rhetorical devices that embody a dilemma envisioned by prominent tragedians in both the ancient and modern worlds. |
| mirage riddle: Think About It! Tess Marcin, 2001-10-02 Many of those who would publish books, on this and that, insist that authors supply credentials to substantiate what they have written. That is not an unreasonable request, however not all writing demands such. THINK ... must one supply credentials when one is writing about the meanderings of one's mind? THINK ... must one supply credentials when one is writing about one's life philosophy? THINK ... must one supply credentials when one writes about the act of writing? THINK ... must one supply credentials about one's own thought process? THINK ... must one supply credentials ... Well, I'm sure you get the idea. Credentials do not always come into play or need be supplied simply because pen has been applied to paper, or fingers to a keyboard and the output is to challenge the reader. Now if reference is being made on how to build a bridge or perform brain surgery, that is something else. Certain arbitrary rules just don't hold water. Reading between the lines of the above what does one deduce? Missing credentials? How true! But I'm not building a bridge nor am I about to perform brain surgery, I'm merely delving into mind and spilling its contents. The diverse thoughts, the musings, whatever ... putting them down on paper in order for the reader to examine, to reflect, to entertain himself and for the reader to try a like process. Credentials? I have a mind, it produces my thoughts and I do not need credentials to support this fact! So what has mind produced for the book titled, THINK ABOUT IT! Glad you asked ... An excerpt from the book, loosely presented ... The scientific world has attempted to answer the question about the age of man. Key word ... attempted. So, how old is man? The range in years is so diverse that it brings into question the logic being used to arrive at an answer. We've all read the spread ... 5,000 - 10,000 - 50,000 - 100,000, etc. The sands of time do not shift back and forth as readily as do the answers we are given. Here we can open up that proverbial can of worms and inititate a hot debate ... We can pit science against the Bible, we can pit the Bible against those who wrote it. Let's begin with Adam ... Was he really the first man? In all of eternity? Was Eve the first woman? To answer this question a lot of taboos must be stirred up, must be discounted, must be faced. When one reads the Bible and begins analytical thought with the Genesis in mind, one stirs up more than thought waves. A careful reading leads one to believe there were other beings around when Adam and Eve made their appearance. The Diety was not alone in the eternality of all. There were beings, there was life, there was energy. The nomenclature may not have been man, or even (hu)man, but what was there had validity. Returning to Genesis we find that God created heaven and earth. The earth, not the universe, not space, not all the other planets, but earth and its immediate surrounds. The void was not such that it took all there was into consideration, the void was where God decided to place the planet earth and its particular surrounds. There are many such voids in the Universal make-up even today. It took God five days and on the sixth day he created Adam and Eve. If the earth itself is judged to be around 4.8 billion of years old, man must be be the same age minus five days. Why did God take six days? After all He could have made all happen with just a thought. ... The search for evidentiary fossils goes on. We are finding a bone here, a bone there, but nothing in huge numbers. We cannot discount any of the earth's mysteries when we seek to age man. The various structures that still exist refuse to give up their secrets. Which brings up the question, Who built them, really? Were the builders earthmen or did they come from somewhere out in space as an expeditionary force? Did they come to |
