Sinopse

Verse Memorization explores the profound connection between music, language, and memory, revealing how poetic forms are intentionally crafted mnemonic devices designed for oral retention. It delves into why certain rhymes and songs stick with us, while other information fades. The book examines the structural elements of poetry, such as rhythm and rhyme, and their roles in facilitating memorization. It further investigates how diverse cultures throughout history have utilized these elements to transmit knowledge. The book's unique approach lies in viewing poetic form not merely as an artistic expression but as a sophisticated "mnemonic technology." It provides a holistic view, beginning with an introduction to core poetic elements and then exploring specific poetic traditions from various cultures. For instance, it covers oral epics of ancient Greece and complex verse structures of Sanskrit literature to emphasize how different societies optimized poetic forms to meet their mnemonic needs. Ultimately, Verse Memorization synthesizes these observations to demonstrate how modern education and communication can benefit from these ancient techniques, incorporating insights from musical theory, language acquisition, and cognitive psychology. The book progresses from foundational concepts to cultural case studies, culminating in practical applications for contemporary learning.

The Fire and the Bonfire - A...

Ardyn Halter

How is the baton of experience passed from generation to generation? What is transmitted? Ardyn Halter explores the legacy of his late father Roman Halter's experiences of the Holocaust. What is received by the "Second Generation" and how can it be expressed in language or art? A journey to Rwanda to complete a commission to commemorate the Rwandan genocide, and a journey to Poland. The Fire and the Bonfire reveals a close - though also difficult - father-son relationship and explores genocide through art, which leads to unexpected discoveries. 
"This is a book that needs to be read more than once. Ardyn Halter has written about an agonizingly difficult subject with a painter's eye, a novelist's sense of pace and suspense, a philosophical mind - and he has done it superbly." - Hillel Halkin 
"...this is powerful. Raw and incredibly sad. Your clear eye and honesty had me gasping for breath at times." - Fergal Keane  
"A hugely eloquent, painfully honest and insightful text... A work of art to be savoured in its own right." - Monica Bohm-Duchen

Dawn of the Age of Exploration...

Charles River Editors

By the mid-15th century, the Byzantine Empire had collapsed and the various Crusades that had taken place in the region had largely disrupted the overland routes of the Silk Road and trade. Compounding the difficulties of trade was the rise of the Ottoman Empire in place of the Byzantines and the outbreak of the Black Death in Europe.
It was roughly around this time that a period of European exploration began, and major factors that contributed to this period of exploration were introduced by the Chinese, albeit indirectly. The magnetic compass had already been developed and used by the Chinese sailors since the 12th century, although it had first been created in the 3rd century B.C. as a divination device. The Song Dynasty then began using the device for land navigation in the 11th century and sailors began using it shortly after. The technology slowly spread west via Arab traders, although a case can be made for the independent European creation for the compass (Southey 1812: 210). Regardless, by the 13th century the compass had found its way to Western traders, coming at a time that trade had been increasing across Europe.
Trade was able to increase in Europe around the world due to more effective ships being introduced, and some of the improvements that were made to the ships were first introduced by the Chinese. The introduction of multiple mast ships and the sternpost rudders allowed the ships to travel quicker and be more maneuverable. By the start of the 15th century, ships were now much larger and able to support long distance travel with a minimum number of crew aboard.
One explorer, Christopher Columbus, sought funding from the Portuguese to search for a passage to Asia by sailing westwards, but he was rejected. However, Portugal’s domination of the western African sea routes prompted the neighboring Crown of Castile and the Catholic monarchs in modern Spain to search for an alternative route to Asia.

A Spirit of Slumber Is...

Pastor Philip

There is spirit of slumber and sleepiness that is overtaking the world. And this causes you to fold your hands, and even stop praying to God; and causes you to close your eyes, and stop reading the word of God; and causes you to rest and stop being busy for God. The song at the end of the sermon "Don't wake me up Ukraine", sung by Chey, gives the listener time to reflect on Pastor Philip's message.
