African Myths and Legends -...

Odessa Nightshade

African mythology is a vast and intricate tapestry woven from the oral traditions of countless ethnic groups across the continent. Unlike written records, these stories have been passed down through generations by storytellers, elders, and spiritual leaders who use them to explain the world, instill moral values, and preserve the history of their people. The myths and legends of Africa are deeply connected to the land, the ancestors, and the spiritual beliefs that guide daily life. They reflect not only the diversity of the continent but also the shared themes that bind its cultures together.
Myths in African societies serve multiple functions beyond simple entertainment. They provide explanations for natural phenomena, such as the origins of the sun, moon, and stars, as well as the formation of rivers and mountains. Many myths are also tied to religious beliefs, detailing the actions of gods, spirits, and ancestors who shape the destiny of human beings. These stories help maintain social order by offering lessons about morality, justice, and respect for tradition. In many communities, mythology is a central aspect of spiritual life, reinforcing the belief that the unseen world is just as real and influential as the physical one.
Oral tradition is the primary vehicle for preserving African myths and legends. Storytelling is an art form, often accompanied by music, dance, and dramatic performance. The storyteller, known in some cultures as a griot, holds a respected position in society, responsible for keeping the wisdom of the past alive. These narratives evolve over time, adapting to new circumstances while retaining their core lessons. Because of this, African folklore is dynamic, shaped by the voices of those who tell and retell the stories.

In the Shadow of Eternity: The...

Seungyong Chang

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
This novel is a humble tribute to the sublime and heartbreaking love between the Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani and his last muse, Jeanne Hébuterne. It traces the tender arc of their brief yet incandescent love story, beginning in 1917 when they first met, and ending in 1920 with their tragic and untimely deaths. 
Modigliani, already frail from illness and weighed by poverty and artistic struggle, found in Jeanne not only a muse but a soul mirror—an echo of his pain, passion, and longing. Jeanne, young and gentle, was drawn to the fire and depth of the man whose eyes rarely painted pupils but always saw souls. 
Their love—fraught with hardships, shadowed by illness, and sealed by death—was not of this world. And yet, it was in death that they were finally reunited: ten years after Jeanne’s suicide, her family allowed her to be buried beside Amedeo, completing the love story they began in life. 
This story is not only about tragedy. It is about transcendence. It is about love so radiant, so all-consuming, it becomes eternal. 
To all who have ever loved deeply, and lost deeply—this story is for you.

With his signature blend of genres and lyrics that touch on myriad societal issues, the artist Prince has challenged and captivated the minds and hearts of countless listeners. Feel My Big Guitar: Prince and the Sound He Helped Create is a wide-ranging collection that seeks to place Prince at the center of contemporary musical scholarship, putting him in proper cultural and political context. This edited volume includes a mix of essays and reflections by scholars and fans, as well as interviews with people who worked with and knew Prince personally. Employing a blend of methodologies, contributors offer a body of fresh, intriguing, thought-provoking, and mind-bending work about Prince—an artist whose music exemplified those very characteristics.

The volume examines Prince's musical influences, his rivalries (both real and imagined), and instrumental eroticism. It includes enlightening interviews with early mentor Pépe Willie and Gayle Chapman, Prince's first female bandmate. These personal reflections and interviews grant readers a unique lens through which to view Prince, enriching our overall understanding of the man. Ultimately, Feel My Big Guitar serves as a space for sharing musicological analysis and memories about an artist whose work has touched and inspired so many. Years in the making, this is the first book in an ongoing scholarly project, PrincEnlighteNmenT: A Study of Society through Music, intended to investigate and reveal the full spectrum of Prince's life and work.
