Sinopse

Sonnet Structures explores the rich history and global evolution of the sonnet, revealing how this 14-line poetic form has mirrored and shaped cultural and artistic movements across time. The book highlights the sonnet's journey from its origins to its varied forms, such as the Italian and Shakespearean sonnets, demonstrating how poets have used its constraints to unlock creative expression. For example, the rise of the Shakespearean sonnet in the English Renaissance allowed for new narrative and dramatic possibilities within the English language. The book uniquely emphasizes the sonnet's adaptability across cultures, examining how poets worldwide have embraced and transformed the form to suit their own artistic needs. It adopts an interdisciplinary approach, drawing connections among literary history, art history, and cultural studies, revealing the sonnet's relationship to visual art and music. Sonnet Structures begins by tracing the sonnet's Italian origins, progressing through its evolution in Europe, and concluding with its global adaptations and contemporary relevance, providing a comprehensive understanding of this enduring poetic form.

  • The Flowering War - Toltec Teachings on Healing Ancestral Trauma Overcoming Your Internal Enemies and Fulfilling Your Life Purpose - cover

    The Flowering War - Toltec...

    In every generation of every family there is one person that is born carrying an unequal amount of the emotional and energetic burden of their lineage. In an intact culture, this person would be recognized for bearing a gift, a seed: the potential to become the healer of their family line. This potential would be cultivated, and the individual guided to learn how to use this gift to heal their personal and ancestral wounds, as well as guide others in their own process of healing. 
      
    This understanding has been lost in our modern society, and instead those bearing this gift are criticized, belittled, ostracized for the very sensitivity that would make them exceptional healers. They become the “black sheep” of their families and communities. 
      
    The Flowering War is a companion, a guide, and a roadmap for those individuals, those that have carried too much and been seen too little, those that have an incredible gift that, when untended, can become a devastating burden. It is for those that I’ve come to know as “Griefbearers,” the potential healers of generations of untended wounds and accumulated trauma. It is for those that have lost their way in bearing this burden but somehow, miraculously, keep going. It is for those would-be healers, consumed by self-criticism and self-doubt. For those wrestling with addiction and self-destruction. It is a Light to guide them out of the Darkness. 
      
    The Flowering War is for those that are determined to break the harmful patterns of their lives and their lineages. It draws on the ancestral living wisdom of the Toltecs to guide you to a greater understanding of yourself, your purpose in life, and the essential role you play in healing an increasingly wounded world. 
      
    If you recognize yourself in these words, this book is for you.

    Spinoza - Freedom's Messiah

    Ian Buruma explores the life and death of Baruch Spinoza, the Enlightenment thinker whose belief in freedom of thought and speech resonates in our own time 
     
     
      
    Baruch (Benedictus) Spinoza (1632–1677) was a radical free thinker who led a life guided by strong moral principles despite his disbelief in an all-seeing God. Seen by many as Satan's disciple during his lifetime, Spinoza has been regarded as a secular saint since his death. Many contradictory beliefs have been attached to his name: rationalism or metaphysics, atheism or pantheism, liberalism or despotism, Jewishness or anti-Semitism. However, there is no question that he viewed freedom of thought and speech as essential to an open and free society. 
     
     
      
    In this insightful account, the award-winning author Ian Buruma stresses the importance of the time and place that shaped Spinoza, beginning with the Sephardim of Amsterdam and followed by the politics of the Dutch Republic. Though Spinoza rejected the basic assumptions of his family's faith, and was consequently expelled from his Sephardic community, Buruma argues that Spinoza did indeed lead a modern Jewish life. To Heine, Hess, Marx, Freud, and no doubt many others today, Spinoza exemplified how to be Jewish without believing in Judaism. His defense of universal freedom is as important for our own time as it was in his.

    Do you know what goes on in a typical modern classroom? Have you noticed how many children actually hate going into school and the effect school has on them? Do you  yourself feel an irrational fear of authority, ridiculously low in resilience, self-worth and self-confidence?You are not alone. This book reveals the dark agenda of the modern schooling system and its toxic effects on both pupils and teachers alike. Since it was first printed, the situation in the classroom has deteriorated catastrophically. Insane indoctrination, psychological torture and hyper-sexualisation are now the order of the day. Included are personal testimonies and rare insights into how we are damaged and traumatised by our schooling and how this affects our entire life. It suggests ways forward that could inspire you to take the necessary drastic action, including taking boys and girls out of school, to help save future generations from what is fast becoming an existential threat to mankind. The revelations in this book will also help you exorcise your own demons from the past.
