Book Description
Would humans evolve in Dystopia? Would humans devolve in Utopia? There’s no happiness without sadness; there’s no learning without strife. What’s the destination for humanity? An unending cycle of conflicts and peace? It’s going to be a long journey, a winding journey, where we do not crave for sufferings, but opportunities to be the best of ourselves and to face the worst of ourselves, so we can be complete. The ending may be frightening, but we all have an innocent beginning. Dying Innocence is the first Act of Desperia Zero, which is the first book of Desperia Saga. In an era so far in the future that the name of the planet has been forsaken and the calendar of humanity has been reset, an alien cybercity is founded on an artificial island as vast as sky and surrounded by ocean. The citizens of this place are not “born” but wake up, in their synthetic bodies. They call themselves “Human Beings”. And this place is introduced to them as Desperia. Powered by otherworldly technology, Desperia is a Utopia, where food and water and energy will run out, but a Dystopia, as everyone must play a "Game", to reach the heart of this artificial land, where the Ultimate Prize: Truth or Freedom awaits. Only one prize can be claimed...

Hesperia
Author: Gary Drylie
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738581071
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Set at the top of the Cajon Pass in the High Desert of Southern California, Hesperia was built on the spirit and strength of character of American frontiersmen. From the time of the first documented travelers through the area in the late 1700s and continuing into the 1900s, the region has been a place of innovation and magnificent feats, where men have traveled through to new lands for a new start, striking it rich or making that big business deal in a new frontier. Named for Hesperus, the Greek god of the evening star in the West, Hesperia has proven to be a place of resilience and perseverance. The second largest land purchase in the western United States became the original Hesperia land holdings. In many areas, the people of Hesperia might be considered trendsetters, and Hesperia a land before its time.

The Treasures of the Parthenon and Erechtheion
Author: Diane Harris
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 9780198149408
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
The two hundred fragments of these stelai which have survived are the only evidence for these cult objects, gifts to Athena, and treasures of the city, since the items themselves have long since vanished - either stolen, melted down, or disintegrated. This volume presents the evidence for these ancient treasures for the first time, and provides data with important implications for the history of Athens and Greek religion. Chapters include a history of the treasures on the Acropolis, catalogues of each object kept in the Opisthodomus, Proneos, Parthenon, Hekatompedos Neos, and Erechtheion, and an analysis of the individual worshippers and allied-city states who gave gifts and offerings to their goddess, Athena.
