Sinopse

Myths of Greece and Rome by H. A. Guerber is a captivating retelling of the legendary stories that have shaped Western literature, art, and culture for centuries. First published in the late 19th century, this timeless collection brings to life the gods, heroes, and epic adventures of classical mythology, offering readers a compelling glimpse into the beliefs and storytelling traditions of the ancient world.     From the thunderous power of Zeus and the cunning of Hermes to the tragic love of Orpheus and Eurydice and the heroic feats of Hercules, these myths are filled with drama, passion, and timeless wisdom. Readers will journey through the fall of Troy, sail with Jason and the Argonauts, and follow Aeneas as he forges the foundations of Rome. Guerber’s engaging storytelling not only brings these tales to life but also highlights their deeper meanings, revealing their enduring influence on literature, philosophy, and the arts.     More than just a collection of ancient stories, Myths of Greece and Rome explores the cultural significance and moral lessons behind each legend. Guerber provides historical context and insight into how these myths shaped classical civilization and continue to inspire modern narratives. Through her vivid prose, she connects the reader to a world where gods interfere in human affairs, fate is inescapable, and heroism is both a blessing and a burden.     This Classicus edition presents Guerber’s work to a new generation of readers, preserving the beauty and depth of these classical myths. Whether you are fascinated by epic battles, enchanted by tales of love and tragedy, or eager to explore the myths that laid the foundation for so much of today’s literature and culture, Myths of Greece and Rome offers an essential and unforgettable reading experience.

    Secret Powers and Why We Shouldn't Use Them by Manly P. Hall is a thought-provoking exploration of the hidden abilities within human consciousness and the moral, ethical, and spiritual implications of their misuse. Drawing from esoteric traditions, philosophy, and psychology, Hall delves into the nature of these powers, such as clairvoyance, telepathy, and other psychic phenomena, emphasizing their potential to disrupt personal and universal harmony if wielded irresponsibly. Through a balanced perspective, he advocates for self-discipline, ethical development, and a commitment to spiritual growth as prerequisites for engaging with these latent abilities. The work serves as both a cautionary tale and an invitation to introspection, encouraging readers to align with universal principles of integrity and wisdom before attempting to unlock their hidden potential.

    This program includes an epilogue and acknowledgements read by the author“A fascinating tale of poisons and poisonous deeds which both educates and entertains.” --Kathy ReichsAs any reader or listener of murder mysteries can tell you, poison is one of the most enduring—and popular—weapons of choice for a scheming murderer. It can be slipped into a drink, smeared onto the tip of an arrow or the handle of a door, even filtered through the air we breathe. But how exactly do these poisons work to break our bodies down, and what can we learn from the damage they inflict?In a fascinating blend of popular science, medical history, and true crime, Dr. Neil Bradbury explores this most morbidly captivating method of murder from a cellular level. Alongside real-life accounts of murderers and their crimes—some notorious, some forgotten, some still unsolved—are the equally compelling stories of the poisons involved: eleven molecules of death that work their way through the human body and, paradoxically, illuminate the way in which our bodies function.Drawn from historical records and current news headlines, A Taste for Poison weaves together the tales of spurned lovers, shady scientists, medical professionals and political assassins to show how the precise systems of the body can be impaired to lethal effect through the use of poison. From the deadly origins of the gin & tonic cocktail to the arsenic-laced wallpaper in Napoleon’s bedroom, A Taste for Poison leads listeners on a fascinating tour of the intricate, complex systems that keep us alive—or don’t.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press

    Punjab could be mainly in Pakistan at this moment, but the Punjabi people live and have resided in India also. As disputes emerged between the Indians and Pakistani, the border has moved from one area to another. Still, the Punjabi society is probably a vital aspect of India's history. 
    Punjab is a geopolitical, cultural, and historic area in South Asia, situated in the northern area of the Indian subcontinent and incorporating parts of Pakistan and India. The area's limitations are ill-defined and based upon historic accounts. 
    With time, the geographical definition of the name "Punjab" has moved. It described a really minimal terrain between the Indus and the Sutlej rivers at the time of the Mughal Empire's 16th century reign. 
    So, if this is your cup of tea, I invite you to get started with this book. You will learn about this interesting people, who value their religion and their traditions more than anything, and who stick to old habits despite of technological advances.

    A Brief Manifesto on South American Identity 
    Have you ever wondered why seas around the world have names... but South America doesn't? 
    Amid forgotten maps, hushed histories and ignored identities, a disturbing question echoes through the waters of the South Atlantic. This is not just an e-book — it is an invitation to reflect on culture, memory and belonging. 
    This e-book is not intended to generalize in an attacking way, but rather to shed light on what has been hidden over the centuries — and which, in a certain way, continues to be silenced. 
    A deep analysis of the role of the sea in the formation of South American identity and integration. History, culture and politics connected by water.
