Theosophy

Rudolf Steiner

Maison d'édition: Passerino

Synopsis

Theosophy is a philosophical and spiritual movement that was founded in the late 19th century by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Henry Steel Olcott, and others. Theosophy is derived from the Greek words "theos" (God) and "sophia" (wisdom), and it seeks to uncover the underlying spiritual principles that are believed to exist behind all religions and philosophies. Rudolf Steiner initially became involved with the Theosophical Society in the early 20th century, and he quickly rose to become one of its leading figures. However, Steiner's views diverged significantly from those of the Society's leadership, particularly with regard to his emphasis on individual spiritual development and his rejection of the Society's hierarchical structure.

Steiner eventually founded his own organization, the Anthroposophical Society, which promoted his own unique spiritual teachings and practices. This led to his expulsion from the Theosophical Society in 1913.

Theosophy- An Introduction to the Spiritual Processes in Human Life and in the Cosmos, published in 1904, was Steiner's first major work on Theosophical ideas.
It explores the nature of the human being, the spiritual realms, and the processes of reincarnation and karma.

Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) was an Austrian philosopher, social reformer, and spiritual teacher who founded the spiritual movement known as Anthroposophy. Steiner was born in what is now Croatia and grew up in Austria. He studied science, mathematics, and philosophy at university, and later became a noted literary critic and writer.

Capitalism and Global Power -...

Arlo Holders

This book contains these three titles:
- Capitalism and Inequality: Capitalism, as an economic system, is based on private ownership of the means of production and the creation of goods or services for profit. In capitalist societies, market forces—supply and demand—determine the distribution of resources and wealth. This system is characterized by competition, limited government intervention, and the pursuit of profit. Over time, capitalism has evolved in response to global events, technological advancements, and changes in social and political structures. However, a fundamental aspect of capitalism that persists is the inherent inequality it creates.
- Economic Impacts of Imperialism: Imperialism, as a driving force in global history, established the foundation for much of the modern world's economic and political systems. The roots of imperialism stretch back to ancient civilizations, where conquest and control of territories provided the resources and labor necessary for expansion and prosperity. Over time, the concept evolved, shaped by cultural ambitions, geopolitical competition, and economic incentives. By the late 15th century, the age of exploration began a new phase of empire building, marked by the European powers seeking wealth and influence beyond their borders.
- Global Capitalism: The roots of global capitalism can be traced to the rise of industrial capitalism in the 18th and 19th centuries, which laid the foundation for an interconnected global economy. With the expansion of imperialism, the development of transportation technologies like steamships and railways, and the establishment of international financial institutions, economic activity increasingly transcended national boundaries.

Native American Legends -...

Odessa Nightshade

For centuries, Native American legends have served as the foundation of cultural identity, spiritual belief, and moral guidance for Indigenous peoples across the continent. These stories, passed down through generations, reflect the deep connection between Native American communities and the natural world, offering insight into their understanding of life, death, and the unseen forces that shape existence. More than just myths, these legends form the backbone of spiritual practices, social structures, and the traditions that continue to thrive today.  
  
One of the most striking aspects of Native American storytelling is its reliance on oral tradition. Unlike written histories, which remain fixed in time, oral traditions are fluid, evolving with each retelling while preserving the essence of ancestral wisdom. Elders and storytellers pass these tales to younger generations, ensuring the survival of cultural knowledge and reinforcing values such as respect, humility, and harmony with nature. Through storytelling, communities maintain a sense of continuity, bridging the past with the present and preparing future generations for the challenges of life.  
  
At the heart of Native American legends is an intrinsic connection to the natural world. Many stories revolve around the land, animals, and celestial bodies, portraying them as spiritual entities rather than mere physical elements. Rivers, mountains, and forests are often imbued with sacred significance, serving as homes to powerful spirits or the setting for legendary events. Animals, too, play a vital role, with figures like the wise Raven, the cunning Coyote, and the noble Eagle embodying various aspects of human nature. These stories do not merely explain natural phenomena—they offer guidance on how to coexist with the environment, reinforcing the belief that humans are part of a greater, interconnected whole.

Winning French Minds - Radio...

Denis Courtois

"...every chapter of Winning French Minds delivered something new, not only because French language radio being a less-frequented area of study, but also due to the author's ability to tie these radio efforts to events surrounding the French people and events unfolding on the European geopolitical stage." — World War II DatabaseWorld War II was very much a war of the radios. A relatively new technology, radio as a tool was exploited by all of the participants of the war to win the hearts and minds of the people and to steer public opinion.  The period 1940 to 1942 was the most volatile of the war, with the Nazis capturing large parts of western Europe and dominating on the Eastern front. At this time France was separated into two nominally independent zones, and public opinion could easily have been swayed in favor of the New German Order. This could have had potentially disastrous consequences for any future Allied attempt to liberate Europe, and so the battle for French minds was launched using the new technology of radio.  This narrative of that campaign develops chronologically through a series of topics including major military incidents, youth, food, family, psychological warfare, sports and work, as presented by different radio stations – in particular Radiodiffusion, controlled by Vichy France; Radio Paris, controlled by the Nazis; and the BBC – offering a systematic comparative analysis of radio propaganda messages and building a vivid picture of the evolution of broadcasts in the context of the complex political and social impact of the war on the French population.  Using original primary sources from archives in Britain and France, broadcast recordings, radio magazines, and interviews conducted by British Intelligence with those arriving from France during the war, this is a fascinating and unique insight into wartime radio propaganda from 1940 to 1942.
