Excerpt from Mr. Gresham and Olympus Zip - zip - zip the tripping flight of Women's Shoes; high heeled with pointed toes; mincing away to a feminine infinity and lost forever. Absurd! In a room three stories above George Street no ear could pick out SO slight a motive as Women's feet from the rumble of a big city. Annoyed With himself, Gresham turned attention back to his table and Went on with the Sketch plan of a portico With slim Ionic pillars.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Ascent of Olympus This volume contains four lectures which were delivered in the John Rylands Library, Manchester, during the years 1915 and 1916, and which appeared at intervals in the Library Bulletins. They are reproduced as nearly as possible in their original form, with a few necessary corrections and expansions and justifications. It would have been easy to spread them over a much larger area; but perhaps they may suffice for the presentation of ideas which are to some extent novel, and, almost as certainly, to some persons distasteful. On the one hand, I have to meet the criticism of my wise friend, and inspiring leader, who is priest of the mythological Nemi and guardian of its Golden Bough, until someone catches him unawares and dispossesses him. He tells me that he despairs of the solution of the riddle of the Greek Mythology, he who does not despair (and with better right than Haeckel) of the solution of the riddle of the Universe! On the other hand, there are those who, having unfortunately been familiar with the Greek gods from their earliest years, and never really detached from traditional faith in them, cannot avoid contemplating the author of these lectures as an Iconoclast, and put upon him the task, under which Socrates as well as the early Christians alike laboured, of proving to a suspicious bench of magistrates that they were really not atheists.

Book Description
Excerpt from Dio the Athenian: Or, From Olympus to Calvary In pursuing this object the author has, of course, sought to give the narrative verisimilitude by correctly representing the time and country in which the scenes are laid, in regard to main features of topography, manners, Opinions, and ad ventures. He ventures to think that Greek scholars will find in the book no serious failures in these respects. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Olympus and Fuji Yama: A Study in Transcendental History Every beautiful thing in the world preaches the same lesson. The lost Eden for a little time we think we may find it here, and then the fair human creature we loved because of something other than human that was there be comes altogether human; we realize our ideal in words or in marble or on canvas and our ideal inspires no longer; sooner or later is born the sorrowful knowledge that all that is divine in our existence is but a memory or a fore shadowing. Seek not your happiness here, nor in love, nor in life, it all seems to say: I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in mine hand, and Lo, I must die.

Book Description
A Good Morning America Book Club Pick! • A bighearted novel with technicolor characters, plenty of Texas swagger, and a powder keg of a plot in which marriages struggle, rivalries flare, and secrets explode, all with a clever wink toward classical mythology. For fans of Madeline Miller's Circe: "The Iliad meets Friday Night Lights in this muscular, captivating debut" (Oprah Daily). The Briscoe family is once again the talk of their small town when March returns to East Texas two years after he was caught having an affair with his brother's wife. His mother, June, hardly welcomes him back with open arms. Her husband's own past affairs have made her tired of being the long-suffering spouse. Is it, perhaps, time for a change? Within days of March's arrival, someone is dead, marriages are upended, and even the strongest of alliances are shattered. In the end, the ties that hold them together might be exactly what drag them all down. An expansive tour de force, Olympus, Texas cleverly weaves elements of classical mythology into a thoroughly modern family saga, rich in drama and psychological complexity. After all, at some point, don't we all wonder: What good is this destructive force we call love?
