Excerpt En zoo werd het eendje voor drie weken op de proef aangenomen; maar er kwamen geen eieren. En de kater was heer in huis, en de kip was er zoo goed als vrouw, en altijd zeiden zij: Wij en de wereld Want zij dachten, dat zij de helft waren, en verreweg de beste helft. Het eendje gaf als zijn meening te kennen, dat het toch ook wel eens anders zou kunnen zijn; maar dat kon de kip niet velen. Kun je eieren leggen? vroeg zij. Neen. Welnu, wil je dan wel eens zwijgen? En de kater zei: Kun je een hoogen rug zetten en spinnen en maken, dat er vonken uit je lijf komen? Neen. Dan mag je ook...

Katabatic Wind: Good Craic Fueled by Fumes from the Abyss
ISBN: 9780996639415 / Angielski / Twarda / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Traditionally, the mountains are from whence wisdom is found and dispensed, the homes of the gods, places we look up to for aspiration and inspiration. Yet there is another source of insight, which involves a katabasis, from the Ancient Greek, meaning 'to go down', to travel from this world to the underworld. There, the chthonic gods and goddesses are just as real, and maybe just a little bit edgy from being neglected for so long. It is the journey of the initiate, to die before your die, thence to live twice-born: once of the flesh, and again of wisdom, Sophia. Katabatic Wind is an inspired...

Myths & Myth-Makers: Old Tales and Superstitions Interpreted by Comparative Mythology
ISBN: 9781523876761 / Angielski / Miękka / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. IN publishing this somewhat rambling and unsystematic series of papers, in which I have endeavoured to touch briefly upon a great many of the most important points in the study of mythology, I think it right to observe that, in order to avoid confusing the reader with intricate discussions, I have sometimes cut the matter short, expressing myself with dogmatic definiteness where a sceptical vagueness might perhaps have seemed more becoming. In treating of popular legends and superstitions, the paths of inquiry are circuitous enough, and seldom can we reach a satisfactory conclusion until we...
