  He had no intentions of marrying, especially not the girl next door.Miss Sarah Brown is the insignificant daughter of an insignificant knight. With a small dowry and an unremarkable appearance, she has little hope of marrying better than a vicar or a solicitor. When her father announces that she is to have a London Season, she allows herself to hope for something more. Surely in the ballrooms of London, there is a gentleman of wealth who will make her a proper match. She need only to discover how to draw the gentleman’s attention to her. But that is not so easily done until her best friend comes up with a plan. Sarah simply needs to learn how to flirt. While it seems ridiculous, if it results in the desired match, it seems like a risk worth taking.Reginald Thornbeck, the Earl of Stoke-on-Trent, has no plans of marrying. At least not anytime soon. He enjoys his life as a bachelor far too much. But as his sister’s guardian, he is responsible for presenting her at court and giving her a Season. Thankfully her best friend, Sarah, will be in London at the same time—allowing Reginald more time in the card room, and less time in the ballroom. But when Reginald learns of his sister’s idiotic plans to help Sarah woo a gentleman, he has no choice but to intervene.As Reginald spends time instructing Sarah, he realizes that bachelorhood might not be as desirable as he previously thought. Now he must try to convince Sarah that she can set her sights higher than a vicar or a solicitor. But the task proves more difficult than he imagined.

  This book comprises five classic works of Chinese mysticism. Culturally, these are the companion works to Confucius’ thoughts, as expanded by Mencius. Confucianism is very much the Apollonian side of Chinese culture. It focuses on matters of ethics, hierarchy, responsibility, and social obligation. Daoism is the other side of the coin, focused on abstraction and uncertainty. 
  The two translators included in this volume were very different men. While they wrote in the same period, their audiences were distinct from one another, and this comes through in their differing approaches to the original texts they are working with. One was a missionary, looking to ensure that his fellow spreaders of the word could understand as completely and correctly as possible the culture that they had come into. The other was a curator at the British Museum, who popularized the first English translations for a thoroughly domestic market.

  The Norse Eddas - The Ancient...

  The Norse Eddas are among the most significant collections of ancient texts in Norse mythology, preserving the beliefs, legends, and wisdom of the Viking Age. These texts, passed down through oral tradition before being written down, provide a glimpse into the cosmology, gods, heroes, and prophecies that shaped the worldview of the Norse people. At the heart of these works are the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda, two distinct but complementary sources that serve as the foundation of our understanding of Norse mythology. While the Poetic Edda consists of mythological and heroic poems that likely originated in pre-Christian Scandinavia, the Prose Edda, written by the Icelandic scholar Snorri Sturluson in the 13th century, provides an organized narrative and interpretation of these myths.  
    
  Norse mythology is unique among the world’s great mythological traditions, offering a vision of a cosmos that is both grand and tragic. The stories contained in the Eddas depict a universe governed by fate, where even the gods themselves are not immune to doom. Central to these myths is the idea of cyclical destruction and rebirth, embodied in the prophecy of Ragnarok—the apocalyptic battle that will end the reign of the gods and bring forth a new world. Unlike the immortals of other mythologies, the Norse gods are flawed, mortal beings who struggle against inevitable destruction, making their tales both heroic and deeply human.  
    
  Beyond their mythological significance, the Eddas also reflect the values, traditions, and daily life of the Norse people. Honor, loyalty, and wisdom are recurring themes, guiding both gods and mortals in their choices and destinies.

  Cigarscapes

  For generations now, it has been possible to separate cigar-lovers into two major categories: those who prefer Havanas, and those who don't. It is a difference that can be as crucial to those involved as, say, the difference between full-bodied red wine and sweet white. Certainly, to anyone who enjoys proper tobacco, lighting up a Havana cigar is the first step towards utter hedonism. With wit and skill, Philippe Mesmer makes a forthrightly chauvinistic comparison between the attractions of women, of spiritous liquors and of the Havana cigar. Plentiful illustrations include old and rare scenic cigar-bands, some with images of the island of Cuba. You might well say that this is a book seeking to find the path to those forms of Paradise that last no longer than an excellent cigar.
