Death of King Arthur Faber & Faber

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

"The Alliterative Morte Arthure" - the title given to a four-thousand line poem written sometime around 1400 - was part of a medieval Arthurian revival which produced such masterpieces as "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and Sir Thomas Malory's prose "Morte D'Arthur". "The Death of King Arthur" deals in the cut-and-thrust of warfare and politics: the ever-topical matter of Britain's relationship with continental Europe, and of its military interests overseas. Simon Armitage is already the master of this alliterative music, as his earlier version of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" (2006) so resourcefully and exuberantly showed. His new translation restores a neglected masterpiece of story-telling, by bringing vividly to life its entirely medieval mix of ruthlessness and restraint.

Book of Gold (Le Livre d'Or) Avalonia

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Le Livre d'Or (The Book of Gold) is a unique 17th century French magical work comprising numerous amulets, charms, prayers, spells and sigils for working with the Biblical Book of the Psalms of King David. Written in a simple style akin to a medieval Book of Secrets combined with magical practices from the ancient world, Le Livre d'Or brings together practices which have their roots in major works from the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Cairo Genizah, to the Greek Magical Papyri and Sepher Shimmush Tehillim (Magical Use of the Psalms). Now translated into English for the first time, this exceptional text demonstrates the significance of the Psalms as a unifying and vital thread throughout the development of Western magic. From Sweden to Syria, Britain to the Baltic, the use of appropriate Psalms has spread as a significant part of popular folk and religious magic, and Le Livre d'Or is an inimitable example of the transmission of divine power through the written and spoken word. Le Livre d'Or was originally bound as part of Lansdowne MS 1202 with a 17th century French copy of the most important of grimoires, the Key of Solomon. The extensive commentary by David Rankine and Paul Harry Barron emphasises the place of the Psalms within the Grimoire tradition, detailing their extensive apotropaic, amuletic and coercive uses in works such as the Book of Abramelin, the Key of Solomon and the Goetia. The editors also illustrate how the magic of the Psalms has underlain and cross-fertilised numerous traditions over the last two thousand years, from Hellenic magicians, early Christians and Jews of the ancient world to practitioners of the medieval Grimoires and Renaissance Cunning-folk. Whether it was for benevolent or malefic results, Le Livre d'Or provided the appropriate Psalm verses and relevant techniques. This previously ignored work is an outstanding example of eminently practical magic which not only draws on such major works as the Heptameron and the Steganographia, but also many of the divine names found in the Kabbalah. From Saints to spirits, characters to Creeds, Le Livre d'Or shines forth as a significant and reclaimed chapter in the Western Esoteric Traditions. There is also a paperback edition available of this book.

Na szczęście to Żyd - Erica Lehrer

Książki & Multimedia > Książki

Opis - Dziś figurek ,,Żydów na szczęście" jest w Polsce więcej niż polskich Żydów. Wraz z wejściem kraju na drogę kapitalizmu, figurki i obrazki ukazujące Żydów trzymających pieniądze rozpowszechniły się nad Wisłą. Talizmany te zawisły w domach i stanęły przy kasach sklepowych i restauracyjnych w całym kraju. Czy mają pozytywny czy negatywny wydźwięk? Dzielą Żydów i Polaków czy ich łączą? Czy są to suweniry, czy może talizmany, czy wreszcie zabawki? Duchy Holokaustu czy też patroni polskiego kapitalizmu? Analizując, co figurki oznaczają dla ich twórców oraz odbiorców, Na szczęście to Żyd oferuje prowokacyjne spojrzenie na miejsce Żydów w świadomości współczesnych Polaków. Nazwa - Na szczęście to Żyd Autor - Erica Lehrer Oprawa - Twarda Wydawca - ha!art Kod ISBN - 9788364057427 Kod EAN - 9788364057427 Wydanie - 1 Rok wydania - 2014 Język - polski, angielski Format - 17.0x24.5cm Ilość stron - 248 Podatek VAT - 5% Premiera - 2014-08-22

Bloody Foreigners Little, Brown Book Group

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

The story of the way Britain has been settled and influenced by foreign people and ideas is as old as the land itself. In this original, important and inspiring book, Robert Winder tells of the remarkable migrations that have founded and defined a nation. 'Our aristocracy was created by a Frenchman, William the Conqueror, who also created our medieval architecture, our greatest artistic glory. Our royal family is German, our language a bizarre confection of Latin, Saxon and, latterly, Indian and American. Our shops and banks were created by Jews. We did not stand alone against Hitler; the empire stood beside us. And our food is, of course, anything but British ...Winder has a thousand stories to tell and he tells them well' Sunday Times
