Beschreibung

In "The Seven Great Monarchies Of The Ancient Eastern World: Babylon," George Rawlinson intricately explores the rise and fall of one of history's most remarkable civilizations. Employing a meticulous narrative style enriched with extensive research, Rawlinson delves into the political, cultural, and religious dimensions of Babylonian society. The book is framed within the broader context of ancient Mesopotamia, offering a carefully constructed analysis that highlights both the grandeur and complexity of Babylon as a leading empire in the ancient world. Richly detailed and scholarly, this work balances historical fact with interpretative insights, making it a vital contribution to the study of Oriental history. George Rawlinson, a distinguished Assyriologist and historian of the 19th century, was profoundly influenced by his academic background and deep interest in ancient cultures. His proficiency in various ancient languages and his tenure at Oxford University allowed him unparalleled access to historical texts and artifacts. Rawlinson's work is grounded not only in his scholarly pursuits but also in a broader Victorian fascination with the East, which imbued his writing with a sense of adventure and discovery. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in ancient history, archaeology, and Middle Eastern studies. Rawlinson's engaging narrative will appeal to both scholars and general readers, providing a comprehensive understanding of Babylon that resonates with contemporary themes of civilization, power, and cultural identity. It is an essential reading for anyone looking to grasp the significance of Babylon's legacy in shaping human history.

    A tale from 1001 Lesbian Nights 
    This collected edition contains all three parts of Desert Gardens at a special price. 
    By the sea of many islands, right at the edge of where the Desert of the Red Sands meets the Desert of the Black Sands, once lay the city of Gurganj, where a sly thief is sent on an errand by her Empress, to retrieve the one magical fruit missing from her garden. Bravely, the young woman sets out on her mission, but only the special juices of a witch, flowing freely from between her legs, will be able to help her withstand the perils of her quest. 
    As our young heroine travels deep into the desert, to retrieve the one fruit for her Queen that was still missing in the Palace Gardens, she encounters a fruit of a very different kind. There, at the harshed and unlikeliest of places, a princess lay sleeping, waiting to be awoken from her ancient curse by the tongue, lips and caresses of a daring, young traveller who longs for nothing more than to taste the flowing juices of her wet holes. 
    Returning from her travels, our heroine discovers that her true destination has been hidden in the Palace Gardens all along, right between the soft, milky white legs of her beloved Queen. Was the magical fruit hidden between her flowery petals all along? And is it ripe for the plucking? For Nilgoon, the time had come to find out.

    The Catholic Church has always had regard for the spiritual and pastoral welfare of those in the military and for centuries priests have ministered to armed forces personnel in war and in peace.
    
     
    Chaplains have served and continue to serve all branches of the British armed forces. The size and organization of the military and the nature of warfare has been transformed, but the chaplain’s vocation remains unchanged. Defend Us In Battle traces the growth and development of Catholic chaplaincy to British armed forces from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century.
    
     
    Taking as its starting point the emergence of a recognized system of military chaplaincy established by the Society of Jesus in Reformation Europe, this wide-ranging survey considers the ministry of chaplains through succeeding centuries. It relates the struggles that Catholic soldiers and sailors endured with British officialdom before being granted their own chaplains.
    
     
    Defend Us In Battle describes the ministry of priests who over the centuries and across the world have voluntarily provided Catholic service personnel with the solace of religion far away from home and frequently in danger. There emerges a powerful narrative of priestly service not always known or recognized by those outside the military.
