Summary

Secret Runes explores the captivating history and spiritual significance of runes and symbolic systems, moving beyond common misconceptions to reveal their true impact on human culture. Rooted in Norse and Germanic cultures, these ancient scripts functioned not merely as primitive writing but as complex tools for communication, divination, and channeling spiritual energy. The book highlights how runes were deeply intertwined with the social structures and belief systems of ancient societies, providing insights into their roles in daily life and spiritual practices. 

 
The book argues that runes were employed for more than simple translation, revealing a profound connection to the human psyche and the ancient world's understanding of the cosmos. One intriguing fact is that runes were used in various methods of divination, each with its unique philosophical underpinnings. Another is the connection of runes to shamanic practices, where they played a central role in rituals and spiritual endeavors.

 
Structured in three parts, Secret Runes first introduces the runic alphabets and their historical origins, then delves into divination methods, and finally examines their spiritual applications in runic magic. Supported by archaeological findings, historical texts, and linguistic analysis, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of runes, appealing to history enthusiasts, students of spirituality, and anyone curious about ancient forms of communication.

    David Curcio’s SMASH HIT: RACE, CRIME, AND CULTURE IN BOXING FILMS joins Armin Lear Press’ titles exploring the way key social issues surface in the arts.      Cinema emerged alongside the rules that ushered in boxing’s modern age and the “squared circle” proved the ideal stage for cinematic display. The public had its first taste of the new medium in 1894 through a heavyweight bout, recognized today as the world’s first feature film.     As the two attractions fast-grew into the country’s most popular entertainments, nascent Hollywood studios were quick to spot an opening for a surefire combo. Like a snap-jab to the teeth, the boxing film emerged as a popular genre wherein the fighter assumed his place among the private dicks, rebel cops, and desperate underdogs mired in America’s expanding urban landscape.     Devoting equal time to both mediums, SMASH HIT: RACE, CRIME, AND CULTURE IN BOXING FILMS uses twenty films as the basis of a hard-nosed exploration as to how the genre held a bloody mirror to twentieth century America’s most prominent social anxieties, elucidating two conjoined mediums that serve as bellwether to an ever-shifting cultural zeitgeist.     “David Curcio’s Smash Hit is a first-round knockout filled with strong writing and deep insight.”-Bob Batchelor, author of Roadhouse Blues: Morrison, the Doors, and the Death Days of the Sixties and Stan Lee: A Life     "David Curcio's absorbing, fascinating book sent me down a rabbit hole of so many memorable movies....and Smash Hit belongs in the company of the best of them."-Donald McRae, The Guardian     "Smash Hit is not about the sport of boxing so much as a view of American society in the context of boxing culture, film history, and Hollywood gossip. An entertaining, informative, lively read.”-Glen Sharp, author of Punching in the Shadows
