| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Eyes of God John Marco, 2003-01-07 The first in a high fantasy romance series full of “military battles . . . political intrigue . . . and star-crossed love, set against a richly detailed land of warring kingdoms and hidden magic” (Library Journal). Destiny tangles a young king, his new bride, and his lifelong champion in an age-old triangle of love and betrayal. Akeela, King of Liiria, was a young and idealistic scholar determined to bring peace to his kingdom—a land that had been plagued by war with the neighboring kingdom of Reec for decades. At 14, he was rescued by Lukien, the Bronze Knight of Lirria, forming a bond of loyalty stronger than blood. But no two souls could be more different. To seal the peace with their enemy, King Karis of Reec bestows upon Akeela the hand of his charming, beautiful, and accomplished daughter. But Cassandra hides a terrible secret: she is experiencing the first symptoms of a disease which could threaten her life—and cause unimaginable strife for all who love her. For Akeela and Lukien, the quest for Cassandra’s salvation will overwhelm every bond of loyalty, every point of honor, every dream of peace. For only the magical amulets known as the Eyes of God can halt the progress of Cassandra’s illness—the same Eyes of God that can tear their world apart and redefine the very nature of their reality . . . |

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: Things Fall Apart Chinua Achebe, 1994-09-01 “A true classic of world literature . . . A masterpiece that has inspired generations of writers in Nigeria, across Africa, and around the world.” —Barack Obama “African literature is incomplete and unthinkable without the works of Chinua Achebe.” —Toni Morrison Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read Things Fall Apart is the first of three novels in Chinua Achebe's critically acclaimed African Trilogy. It is a classic narrative about Africa's cataclysmic encounter with Europe as it establishes a colonial presence on the continent. Told through the fictional experiences of Okonkwo, a wealthy and fearless Igbo warrior of Umuofia in the late 1800s, Things Fall Apart explores one man's futile resistance to the devaluing of his Igbo traditions by British political andreligious forces and his despair as his community capitulates to the powerful new order. With more than 20 million copies sold and translated into fifty-seven languages, Things Fall Apart provides one of the most illuminating and permanent monuments to African experience. Achebe does not only capture life in a pre-colonial African village, he conveys the tragedy of the loss of that world while broadening our understanding of our contemporary realities. |

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Emperor of All Maladies Siddhartha Mukherjee, 2011-08-09 Selected as One of the Best Books of the 21st Century by The New York Times Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, adapted as a documentary from Ken Burns on PBS, this New York Times bestseller is “an extraordinary achievement” (The New Yorker)—a magnificent, profoundly humane “biography” of cancer. Physician, researcher, and award-winning science writer, Siddhartha Mukherjee examines cancer with a cellular biologist’s precision, a historian’s perspective, and a biographer’s passion. The result is an astonishingly lucid and eloquent chronicle of a disease humans have lived with—and perished from—for more than five thousand years. The story of cancer is a story of human ingenuity, resilience, and perseverance, but also of hubris, paternalism, and misperception. Mukherjee recounts centuries of discoveries, setbacks, victories, and deaths, told through the eyes of his predecessors and peers, training their wits against an infinitely resourceful adversary that, just three decades ago, was thought to be easily vanquished in an all-out “war against cancer.” The book reads like a literary thriller with cancer as the protagonist. Riveting, urgent, and surprising, The Emperor of All Maladies provides a fascinating glimpse into the future of cancer treatments. It is an illuminating book that provides hope and clarity to those seeking to demystify cancer. |
| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Crowd Gustave Le Bon, 1908-01-01 This work is devoted to an account of the characteristics of crowds. The whole of the common characteristics with which heredity endows the individuals of a race constitute the genius of the race. When, however, a certain number of these individuals are gathered together in a crowd for purposes of action, observation proves that, from the mere fact of their being assembled, there result certain new psychological characteristics, which are added to the racial characteristics and differ from them at times to a very considerable degree. Organised crowds have always played an important part in the life of peoples, but this part has never been of such moment as at present. The substitution of the unconscious action of crowds for the conscious activity of individuals is one of the principal characteristics of the present age. I have endeavoured to examine the difficult problem presented by crowds in a purely scientific manner--that is, by making an effort to proceed with method, and without being influenced by opinions, theories, and doctrines. This, I believe, is the only mode of arriving at the discovery of some few particles of truth, especially when dealing, as is the case here, with a question that is the subject of impassioned controversy. A man of science bent on verifying a phenomenon is not called upon to concern himself with the interests his verifications may hurt--Pref.

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended Sir Issac Newton, 2010-01-01 The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended by Sir Isaac Newton is a groundbreaking historical work that challenges conventional views on ancient civilizations and chronology. In this book, Newton presents his meticulous research and analysis, questioning the accuracy of established historical timelines and proposing revisions based on astronomical calculations and biblical references. His unique approach to ancient history sparks a new understanding of the past and establishes him as a pioneer in the field of historical revisionism. Key Aspects of the Book The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended: Revisionist Approach to Ancient History: Newton's book challenges the prevailing narratives of ancient history by offering alternative chronologies for various kingdoms and civilizations. Drawing upon astronomical observations and biblical sources, he proposes revised timelines that differ from conventional historical accounts. Newton's meticulous research and calculations provide readers with a fresh perspective on the ancient world, encouraging them to question established beliefs and explore new avenues of historical interpretation. Astronomical Calculations and Historical Dating: A significant aspect of Newton's work is his use of astronomical calculations to determine the dates of historical events. By analyzing celestial phenomena and their alignment with historical records, Newton attempts to establish precise chronologies for ancient civilizations. His integration of astronomy and historical dating methods showcases his interdisciplinary approach and demonstrates the interconnectedness of scientific disciplines in unraveling the mysteries of the past. Controversial Findings and Impact: The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended was met with both intrigue and controversy upon its publication. Newton's revisionist views challenged established scholarly beliefs and ignited debates within academic circles. While some welcomed his contributions to historical scholarship, others criticized his methods and conclusions. Nevertheless, Newton's work paved the way for further research and inquiry into ancient chronology, leaving a lasting impact on the field of historical studies. Sir Isaac Newton, renowned for his groundbreaking contributions to physics and mathematics, also ventured into the realm of historical research with The Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms Amended. This book showcases Newton's intellectual curiosity and interdisciplinary approach, as he applies his scientific acumen to challenge established historical narratives. Newton's reputation as a brilliant scientist is further enhanced by his foray into historical revisionism, cementing his legacy as a polymath and a visionary thinker who expanded the boundaries of knowledge across multiple disciplines. |

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: Early Augustan Virgil Virgil, 2010 Early Augustan Virgil makes accessible a substantial text by a pioneer in couplet writing and in the theory and practice of translation, vindicating Pope's distinction when he enjoins his reader to praise the easy vigor of a line,/ Where Denham's strength and Waller's sweetness join. The volume thus puts Denham's version of Virgil sympathetically into a context where it can be seen to make an important contribution to the development of the English Augustan style, thus making a case for the formative influence of classical translation upon the development of English poetry. It also makes a contribution to the reception of Virgil and will be of interest to readers of classical and English poetry alike. --Book Jacket. |
| of gods and men 2010 torrent: Fear and Trembling Soren Kierkegaard, 2013-01-18 In our time nobody is content to stop with faith but wants to go further. It would perhaps be rash to ask where these people are going, but it is surely a sign of breeding and culture for me to assume that everybody has faith, for otherwise it would be queer for them to be . . . going further. In those old days it was different, then faith was a task for a whole lifetime, because it was assumed that dexterity in faith is not acquired in a few days or weeks. When the tried oldster drew near to his last hour, having fought the good fight and kept the faith, his heart was still young enough not to have forgotten that fear and trembling which chastened the youth, which the man indeed held in check, but which no man quite outgrows. . . except as he might succeed at the earliest opportunity in going further. Where these revered figures arrived, that is the point where everybody in our day begins to go further. |
| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Torah Story Gary Edward Schnittjer, 2010-06-01 Working knowledge of the Torah is essential for every serious student of the Scriptures. Written in an engaging and accessible voice, even while digging into difficult and complicated matters at a sophisticated level, The Torah Story emphasizes the content of the text itself, moving beyond debating dates and theories of authorship into understanding how these five key books of the Bible help us understand the story of salvation.

It leaves no doubt as to the overarching unity of the message and composition of the Pentateuch. |

Hollick does a remarkable job of bringing to life a little known but powerful queen... an absorbing plot that never lags over the course of a fat, satisfying book.—Publishers Weekly Sometimes, a desperate kingdom is in need of one great woman Saxon England, 1002. Not only is Æthelred a failure as King, but his young bride, Emma of Normandy, soon discovers he is even worse as a husband.

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Aryaman Trilogy Bina Saksena, 2010-05-04 Fantasy and the supernatural, mingle with down-to-earth exposition of human predicament and realism and surrealism meet in a daring union..... - Manoj Das, novelist, Sahitya Akademi and Jnana Pith awardee. The Aryaman Trilogy spans five generations of ancient kings and stretches between natural and supernatural worlds. In the key of the symbolic tales of the Vedic cycle, the narrative carries the trace of an archaic human memory of the bridge between heaven and earth and the power of consciousness to conquer the distance between Matter and Spirit. Though set in a protohistorical past, the tale opens the horizons to an utopian future, where it is no longer Space which is the final frontier, but Time, or rather a Space-Time which flows seamlessly between material and archetypal universes. The battle between good and evil, or established cosmic hierarchies and the power of consciousness is transacted on earth and beyond it through symbolic events and mystical powers leading to the fulfillment of human possibility. |
| of gods and men 2010 torrent: The Koran , 2010-12-01 The Koran is the holy book of Islam, considered by Muslims to be the divine word of God and a spiritual guide for living. It is said that God revealed the Koran to Muhammad, the last great Muslim prophet and God's messenger, through the angel Jibril (or Gabriel). One day when Muhammad was 40 and meditating in a cave during Ramadan, he received his first revelation; these continued until his death in 632 CE. Three years after the first revelation, Muhammad began preaching total surrender to God as the only acceptable path. Muhammad's followers recorded and memorized his teachings, eventually compiling them into one complete text after his death to form the Koran. The Koran is seen as proof of Muhammad's prophethood and contains instructions for how to live, recounts of historical events, and parables and moral lessons. This edition contains an Introduction and Preface, as well as a detailed Index.JOHN MEDOWS RODWELL (1808-1900)was an English non-muslim Islamic scholar who translated the Qu'ran (transliterated Koran) in 1961 using a chronological method to sort verses. While the text is not considered the most accurate compared to more modern translations, it was extremely popular in its time, and was used in the 1962 movie Lawrence of Arabia. |

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: Rethinking the Other in Antiquity Erich S. Gruen, 2010-11-01 Prevalent among classicists today is the notion that Greeks, Romans, and Jews enhanced their own self-perception by contrasting themselves with the so-called Other--Egyptians, Phoenicians, Ethiopians, Gauls, and other foreigners--frequently through hostile stereotypes, distortions, and caricature. In this provocative book, Erich Gruen demonstrates how the ancients found connections rather than contrasts, how they expressed admiration for the achievements and principles of other societies, and how they discerned--and even invented--kinship relations and shared roots with diverse peoples. Gruen shows how the ancients incorporated the traditions of foreign nations, and imagined blood ties and associations with distant cultures through myth, legend, and fictive histories. He looks at a host of creative tales, including those describing the founding of Thebes by the Phoenician Cadmus, Rome's embrace of Trojan and Arcadian origins, and Abraham as ancestor to the Spartans. Gruen gives in-depth readings of major texts by Aeschylus, Herodotus, Xenophon, Plutarch, Julius Caesar, Tacitus, and others, in addition to portions of the Hebrew Bible, revealing how they offer richly nuanced portraits of the alien that go well beyond stereotypes and caricature. Providing extraordinary insight into the ancient world, this controversial book explores how ancient attitudes toward the Other often expressed mutuality and connection, and not simply contrast and alienation. |

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: Theodicy Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, 2010-07-01 In this 1710 treatise, Gottfried Liebniz's only book-length work, he applies the idea of philosophical optimism-that we live in the best of all possible worlds-to the problem of evil-If a benevolent God exists, why do terrible things happen? He explores the possibility that humanity's happiness is not necessarily part of God's plan. Much of Leibniz's thinking in the realm of the sciences flowed from his philosophy-he believed the universe to operate under simple, intelligible, interconnected rules. Understanding how he approached the metaphysical world and humanity's place in it is vital to understanding his contributions to modern science. The impact of the work of German mathematician GOTTFRIED WILHELM LEIBNIZ (1646-1716) on modern science and technology is all but incalculable. His notation for infinitesimal calculus-which he developed independently of Newton-remains in use today, and his invention of binary counting is the basis for modern computing. He was a powerfully influential philosopher as well, and is still considered, alongside Descartes and Spinoza, one of the great 17th-century rationalists. |

Ultimately, he reaches the promised land of Italy where, after bloody battles and with high hopes, he founds what will become the Roman empire. An unsparing portrait of a man caught between love, duty, and fate, the Aeneid redefines passion, nobility, and courage for our times.

| of gods and men 2010 torrent: Jason & Medeia John Gardner, 2010-09-21 This modern retelling of the ancient Greek myth is “a brilliant achievement” by the New York Times–bestselling author of Grendel (The Houston Post). In this magnificent epic poem, John Gardner renders his interpretation of the ancient story of Jason and Medeia. Confined in the palace of King Creon, and longing to return to his rightful kingdom Iolcus, Jason asks his wife, the sorceress Medeia, to use her powers of enchantment to destroy the tryrant King Pelias. Out of love she acquiesces, only to find that upon her return Jason has replaced her with King Creon’s beautiful daughter, Glauce. An ancient myth fraught with devotion and betrayal, deception and ambition, Jason and Medeia is one of the greatest classical legends, and Gardner’s masterful retelling is yet another achievement for this highly acclaimed author. |
