  A World Rewritten

  In the aftermath of ideological collapse and technological overreach, humanity stands at a critical crossroads. The old empires have fallen, the myths of progress lie shattered, and yet a new vision begins to rise from the ashes. In this sweeping narrative of political reinvention, cultural restoration, and cognitive evolution, Book Three: A World Rewritten explores a world where history is rewritten, myth and memory merge, and a new civilization struggles to define itself. 
  Through alternate histories, radical diplomacy, decentralized knowledge systems, and deeply human questions, this book challenges readers to confront what it means to belong in a world unmoored from its past—but alive with possibility. 
  From the fall of Athens to the simulated mind of Alexander the Great, from a world without Columbus to the emergence of unified languages and fractured technologies, this book is both a cautionary tale and a hopeful blueprint. Could a better future still be possible? The answer lives in the stories we choose to tell.

  “These Merovingians are said to be a dynasty of Frankish, priest-kings, with magical powers…..” 
   
  The whole history of the Holy Grail is linked inextricably with the mysterious family called the Merovingians. It was a name used in the blockbuster, The Matrix, because of the power the name holds. Why? 
   
  There are tales of mystery and magic, of wisdom and light and last but not least of all, descent from God himself via His Son, Jesus, and His supposed wife, Mary Magdalene. 
   
  Some even go so far as to say that the Merovingian’s were descended from an ultra-ancient race of fallen angels that spawned the globe, taking wisdom and knowledge with them as Atlantis sank. 
   
  The truth is that the line of Merovech was very special and worshipped the serpent. Their history is one of the most magical, mystical and murderous tales. 
   
  We will discover that their very bloodline was so special to a secret and sacred order or serpent worshippers, that their lives were in constant danger. That, and they held a dark secret that was twisted out of all recognition by the Christian Church. 
   
  Prepare to discover the real secret of the Da Vinci Code.

  The Notorious Edward Low -...

  Following the War of the Spanish Succession (1702–1713) a decade-long wave of sea-robbery plagued the Atlantic rim—often glamorized as the "Golden Age of Piracy". Boston-based laborer, Edward Low, left his mark on pirate history as the most vicious and sadistic raider of them all. Low's reputation, and those of other pirates, was crafted through newspapers and literature. Romanticized as anti-heroes and egalitarians in a monarchical world who had liberated themselves from the constraints of law and society ashore, these marauders came to enjoy an immortality bestowed upon them by generations of historians, novelists, and movie makers. That persistent gloss masks a more sordid reality. 
   
   
   
  Travers demonstrates that, feared as they certainly were, pirates were largely ordinary seamen trapped in desperate circumstances who, in the end, had little to show for their efforts. Contrary to popular portrayals, for pirates it was a time of radically diminishing returns, scant treasure, and increasingly successful suppression by state authorities. The Notorious Edward Low puts individual actors, from colonial governors to captains to common seamen, at center stage, and reveals how British authorities used new anti-piracy laws to reclaim authority over their fractious North American colonies—a compelling story with its own brand of true-life swashbuckling on the high seas.

  The epic is an ancient and universal form of artistic expression. Storytellers around the globe have long told of heroes who are touched by greatness and gain lasting fame. 
   
   
   
  In this Very Short Introduction, Anthony Welch places the Western epic canon alongside traditional heroic poetry from Asia, Africa, and the Near East. Tracing shared themes and practices that unite the world's epic literature, Welch examines the roles that epic poets serve in society and how epic storytelling differs from other narrative forms. Ranging widely from Gilgamesh to Derek Walcotts Omeros, the author acquaints listeners with some of the world's greatest literary works and asks why the epic holds such power over our imaginations.
