Beschreibung

In "The Prophet," Kahlil Gibran weaves a tapestry of poetic prose that transcends the boundaries of time and culture. This seminal work, published in 1923, comprises a series of 26 poetic essays that delve into profound themes such as love, freedom, and the human experience. Gibran's lyrical style is characterized by its rhythmical cadence and philosophical depth, making the text not only a spiritual guide but also a work of art that resonates with both Eastern and Western traditions. The book is set against the backdrop of Gibran's own Lebanese-American identity, embodying the fusion of different cultural perspectives, which adds layers of meaning to its contemplations on life's virtues and challenges. Kahlil Gibran, born in 1883 in Bsharri, Lebanon, experienced a life rich in artistic and philosophical influences. His emigration to the United States at a young age exposed him to various sociopolitical ideas and spiritual teachings, which deeply informed his writing. Gibran's passion for art and literature burgeoned as he engaged with the works of fellow poets and thinkers, marking him as a key figure in the early 20th-century literary landscape, particularly within the philosophical and transcendentalist movements. "The Prophet" remains a timeless classic that continues to inspire readers with its insightful reflections and transcendent wisdom. It is a must-read for anyone seeking deeper understanding of life's complexities, perfect for scholars, spiritual seekers, and lovers of poetic literature alike.

    When one thinks of the world’s first cities, Sumer, Memphis, and Babylon are some of the first to come to mind, but if the focus then shifts to India, then Harappa and Mohenjo-daro will likely come up. These cities owe their existence to India’s oldest civilization, known as the Indus Valley Civilization or the Harappan Civilization, which was contemporary with ancient Mesopotamia and ancient Egypt and had extensive contacts with the former, making it one of the most important early civilizations in the world. Spread out along the rivers of the Indus River Valley, hundreds of settlements began forming around 3300 BCE, eventually coalescing into a society that had all of the hallmarks of a true civilization, including writing, well-developed cities, a complex social structure, and long-distance trade. 
    Mohenjo-daro was the largest city of the Indus Valley Civilization, one of the most advanced civilizations to have ever existed, and the best-known and most ancient prehistoric urban site on the Indian subcontinent. It was a metropolis of great cultural, economic, and political importance that dates from the beginning of the 3rd millennium BCE. Although it primarily flourished between approximately 2500 and 1500 BCE, the city had longer lasting influences on the urbanization of the Indian subcontinent for centuries after its abandonment. It is believed to have been one of two capital cities of the Indus Civilization, its twin being Harappa located further north in Punjab, Pakistan. 
    Kalibangan was unknown to the modern world until archaeologists began uncovering its secrets in excavations during the 1960s. Although it followed some of the patterns of larger Indus cities such as Mohenjo-daro and Harappa, it was also a unique city in many ways. Kalibangan was located on a different river from the other major Indus Valley Civilization cities, and its river suffered a fate that led to the end of the city.

    On how our feeling of equilibrium has characterized us as a country and will protect our future. 
    In the years that the creator served in the public parliament he came to figure out the extraordinary person of Australia; to see the value in its assets and shortcomings; and in particular to regard the feeling of equilibrium in the plan of public strategy that has long characterized us as a country and made Australia an appealing objective for individuals from across the world. 
    In this book he investigates this equilibrium, its establishments and its future. Composed against the background of the Coronavirus pandemic, as well as a portion of the more challenged political occasions of late years - the appointment of Donald Trump, the Brexit vote, the ascent of China, and, inside our own country, a merry go round of six heads of the state in eleven years - these reflections address how Australia has answered strain over the course of the past ten years or somewhere in the vicinity. Editorial regarding these matters from lawmakers, assessment scholars and web-based entertainment can at times appear to be deafening and disruptive. Australia's 25th and second longest serving head of the state has confidence that regardless of what difficulties and limits take steps to agitate our feeling of equilibrium, the nation's foundations and individuals will stay hearty for a significant length of time.

    Mankind is naturally evil and good. Ever since we became conscious, the evil within us emerged. Animals are not good or evil, they just follow the power of nature. We became aware of the differences and we continued regardless. No higher agent such as God can be blamed for the rise of darkness in our souls. Moral evil is caused by human activity. 
     
    It is argued that our love of darkness proves that there is no God. If God exists and is omnipotent and all-knowing and perfectly good then there would be no natural evil, but there is. Can we continue to blame God for the ways of mankind or is it time we accepted responsibility for our ways? 
     
    The truth is that we will not stop any time soon. In this book we examine the dark nature of mankind and the most gruesome and disturbing acts we have committed over time. From the holocaust to human sacrifices to false gods. No bloodstained stone will be unturned. Welcome to the Dark Side.

    Gambling captures as nothing else the drama of the "long eighteenth century" between the age of religious wars and the age of revolutions. The society that was confronted with games of chance pursued as commercial ventures also came to grips with unprecedented social mobility, floated by new wealth from new sources created fortunes from trade in sugar, cotton, ivory, silk, tea, or enslaved human beings. Likewise, play for money was prominent in the public imagination as money itself, deployed through an ever expanding and ever more sophisticated range of mechanisms, increasingly invaded public awareness, as when prospective spouses in period fiction were rated in terms of annual income as if they were municipal bonds. Similarly, the archetypal figure of the gambler captured the imagination of the public in fiction, media, and politics. At the same time, new interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics—encouraged and bankrolled by those in power—fostered a new and unprecedented appreciation for mathematical probability and its applications, opening the possibility that games of chance might be pursued as a profitable commercial venture. The Gambling Century focuses like no previous work on those who enabled, facilitated, and profited from gambling, as well as on efforts to regulate or outlaw it.
