Sinopse

In "Mearing Stones: Leaves from My Note-Book on Tramp in Donegal," Joseph Campbell intricately weaves his poetic reflections and vivid observations while exploring the rugged landscapes of Donegal, Ireland. The work manifests a lyrical style that blends prose and poetry, capturing the interplay of myth, nature, and the human experience. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Ireland, Campbell's narrative is steeped in regional folklore and resonant imagery, showcasing a deep appreciation for the land and its stories, revealing a vivid tapestry of life intertwined with the natural world. Joseph Campbell, a prominent mythologist and writer, was profoundly influenced by his travels and the Celtic heritage that shaped his childhood. His fascination with mythology and archetypal patterns in human culture shines through as he navigates the essence of his surroundings. Campbell's erudition in comparative mythology, combined with his passionate exploration of the Irish landscape, allows him to reflect on broader themes of identity, belonging, and the metaphysical connections between humanity and nature in this poignant work. I highly recommend "Mearing Stones" to readers who seek not only to explore enchanting landscapes but also to delve into the rich interplay of myth, memory, and introspection. Campbell's evocative prose provides a unique lens through which to understand both the external world and the internal landscapes of the human spirit.

May 11th 1941 - Berchtesgaden. The day after Rudolf Hess took off from Augsburg and hadn't yet returned or sent any signal, Adolf Hitler had to say something to justify Hess' so far unexplained disappearance. Not least for the benefit of the German nation and his then trading ally, Soviet Russia.
Consequently he authorised a statement saying that Hess was suffering from a mental derangement and had succeeded in obtaining an aeroplane against the strict orders of the Fuhrer. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth, but an explanation had at least been proffered before British propaganda commenced. The unlikely explanation has however proven durable, some still believing it to be true 80 years later.
In this, their eighth book on the affair, Harris and Wilbourn demonstrate that far from being a random act, the flight had been meticulously planned, using state of the art German radio technology. Using contemporary equipment, maps and charts they demonstrate the true nature and character of the flight and explain what went wrong, leading to the sensational and very public arrival of Rudolf Hess in Scotland at 23.09hrs on May 10th 1941.
