Sinopse

"Lost Scrolls" explores the profound impact of destroyed, hidden, and rediscovered ancient texts on shaping our understanding of history, religion, and philosophy. It argues that gaps in our knowledge, caused by the loss or suppression of key documents, have significantly influenced historical narratives and religious teachings. The book emphasizes the importance of examining these "lost texts" to gain a more complete and nuanced view of human history and belief systems, challenging accepted truths by uncovering alternative perspectives. For example, the burning of the Library of Alexandria represents a monumental loss of knowledge, while the concealment of the Dead Sea Scrolls highlights the deliberate attempt to hide information. 

 
The book uniquely focuses on the impact of these lost texts, rather than simply describing them. It investigates how these absences have shaped historical developments, religious interpretations, and philosophical thought. Structured around themes like the destruction of knowledge, deliberate concealment, and rediscovery of wisdom, the book progresses from examining events like the eradication of pre-Columbian codices to exploring the rediscovery and impact of texts such as the Gospel of Mary Magdalene.

 
 By drawing upon archaeological findings, textual analysis, and historical accounts, "Lost Scrolls" bridges history, religion, and philosophy in an accessible manner, encouraging critical evaluation of information and dominant narratives.

    The Nuremberg Trials - The Nazis...

    At 10.00 am on 20 November 1945, Sir Geoffrey Lawrence, the presiding judge at the first of the Nuremberg Trials, opened proceedings at what he described as a trial that was 'unique in the history of jurisprudence'. 
     
    What followed were 11 days of accusations and rebuttals that would determine the fate of 21 Nazi leaders and see the indictment of three others in their absence. The charges against them included war crimes, crimes against humanity, crimes against peace and the conspiracy to commit those crimes. 
     
    Judges, administrators and onlookers alike had to steel themselves as they listened to a catalogue of barbaric and sickening acts. 
     
    Compellingly, The Nuremberg Trials recalls the events of that first trial, the people involved - both accusers and accused - and explores the impact and consequences that it would have on subsequent trials at Nuremberg and in Tokyo (where Japanese leaders were also tried) and on the future of international law and tribunals.

    A former football champion’s engrossing personal story of spirituality and rebellion, and an inspiring call to action against systemic racism. 
    The son of a Jamaican father and a Quebecois mother, Balarama Holness spent his earliest, most formative years on an ashram in West Virginia, learning the principles of equity and austerity, which would guide him through life. It wasn’t until he returned to Montreal at age ten with his mother and twin brother that he encountered virulent racism for the first time. Faced with a system that seemed stacked against him, Holness initially fell between the cracks. 
    Eyes on the Horizon is Holness’s story of lifting himself up through the power of self-determination, spirituality and no small amount of rebellion to confront the systemic racism of his city and his country. He accomplished this first through football, going all the way to a Grey Cup championship, and later through activism and politics. 
    Holness’s personal journey is connected to the social history of Canada, Quebec and the United States. Committed to reshaping society as we know it, he uses lessons from his own life to teach others about racism past and present, and to help people better understand how human beings should live and how to build a truly peaceful and just society for our children.
