Hadland Frederick Davis

Beschreibung

I desire to thank Mr. R. A. Nicholson for his kind and generous permission to use selections from his Dīvāni Shamsi Tabrīz, and also his publishers, the Cambridge Press. I am deeply indebted to Mr. E. H. Whinfield for allowing me to use quotations from his rendering of the Masnavi (Trübner’s Oriental Series). I also cordially thank Mr. John Hastie for giving me permission to quote a few passages from the late Rev. Professor Hastie’s “Festival of Spring” (James Maclehose and Sons, Glasgow). The poems quoted from this volume are entitled: “Thy Rose,” “I saw the Winter weaving,” “Love sounds the Music of the Spheres,” “The Souls Love-moved,” and “The Beloved All in All.” All the other translations from the lyrical poetry of Jalálu’d-Dín Rúmí are by Mr. R. A. Nicholson. To these gentlemen, and to those I have left unnamed, I tender my warmest thanks for their help, sympathy, and interest in my attempt to “popularise the wisest of the Persian Súfís.
F. HADLAND DAVIS.

The Art of Badassery - Unleash...

Jennifer Cassetta

Jennifer Cassetta is a nationally recognized keynote speaker, health and empowerment coach, and a 3rd-degree black belt in Hapkido. After a brush with death on September 11th, 2001, three blocks south of the World Trade Center,  
and a near sexual assault within the same year, Jenn took a deep dive into martial arts training where she learned how to harness the power of mind, body, and spirit. 
 
Now she teaches women from colleges to corporations how to unleash their inner badass by using dojo wisdom as a metaphor for life. 
 
Whether the opponent is a financial hardship, a difficult boss, or being in a manipulative relationship, Cassetta teaches readers how to flex their mental muscle, how to rise above fears, and how to turn setbacks into superpowers.  
 
Through thought-provoking exercises and no-holds-barred humor, she shows women how to close the door on blame and shame; how to grow from their Greatest (S)Hits List of life disappointments; and how to disarm and defend  
against the blocks that hold them back. 
 
In life—just like in martial arts—we get pushed and pulled and kicked down. We get banged up and bruised and stretched to our limits. Cassetta champions women that while they may bend, they will not break, and that they have the  
power within them to rise up and stand tall.
