Temporal Power: A Study in Supremacy

Marie Corelli

Publisher: DigiCat

Summary

In "Temporal Power: A Study in Supremacy," Marie Corelli delves into the intricacies of political and spiritual authority, blending a rich tapestry of fiction, philosophy, and social commentary. The narrative is woven with her characteristic lyrical prose, embodying the tension between earthly rulers and the divine right of influence. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, a time marked by socio-political upheaval and a growing fascination with mysticism, Corelli contemplates the influence of unseen forces in the realm of power, challenging the reader's perceptions of sovereignty and morality. Corelli, often regarded as one of the bestselling authors of her time, was deeply influenced by the spiritual movements and the burgeoning interest in the occult that permeated Victorian society. Her experiences as a woman navigating a male-dominated literary landscape may have prompted her to address themes of dominance and spiritual awakening in this thought-provoking work. Corelli's profound insights and reflective narrative style showcase her desire to elevate the reader's consciousness concerning societal constructs. "Temporal Power" is a compelling read for those interested in the intersection of politics and metaphysics, as well as readers who appreciate rich, philosophical literature that critiques the status quo. Corelli's eloquent prose invites readers to reflect upon their own perceptions of power and the influence of the unseen, making this work a timeless exploration of human authority.

Folk Myths and Legends -...

Odessa Nightshade

Since the dawn of civilization, storytelling has been an essential part of human culture. Long before written language, myths and legends were passed down through generations, shaping societies, preserving history, and explaining the mysteries of the world. These tales, often woven with elements of the supernatural, serve not only as entertainment but also as a means of teaching values, reinforcing traditions, and connecting people to their heritage. Whether told around a fire, painted on cave walls, or transcribed into sacred texts, myths and legends offer profound insights into the beliefs and customs of different cultures.  
One of the most remarkable aspects of folklore is its universality. While each culture has its own unique stories, striking similarities emerge when comparing myths from different parts of the world. Themes of creation, heroism, trickery, love, and the afterlife appear across civilizations, suggesting a shared human experience. The flood myth, for example, exists in various forms in Mesopotamian, biblical, Hindu, and Indigenous traditions, each with its own interpretation but conveying a common theme of destruction and renewal. These recurring motifs highlight how storytelling transcends time and geography, reinforcing the idea that despite cultural differences, people everywhere grapple with similar questions about existence, morality, and destiny.  
Myths and legends also serve as powerful tools for shaping identity and societal values. Many of history’s greatest civilizations—Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Chinese, among others—built their cultural foundations upon stories of gods, heroes, and mythical creatures. These tales not only provided explanations for natural phenomena but also established codes of behavior, demonstrating the rewards of courage, loyalty, and wisdom while warning against greed, deceit, and hubris.

The king in question was Sayajirao Gaekwad. From here onwards, his story was a story of defiance and insubordination with the most cautious mix of diplomacy. How did he manage that? Listen here!
