Book Description
These twelve poems in which he intends to publish has been a coping mechanism for him. He recalls a song by Dan Behar, a Canadian musician, who sang these infamous lines: “I write poetry for myself. I write poetry for myself.” These poems take in the theme of a fight. These entities he intends to fight are the voices that would attack him daily (psychosis). The third poem in this collection tells of that fight Ali became obsessed with, which goes as follows: My sin is to conquer I shall conquer and conquer From high hill to low valley I shall conquer all the land.

The Golden Wing
Author: Yueh-Hwa Lin
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136248021
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
First published in 1998. This is Volume X of the fifteen in the Sociology of Gender and the Family series and offers a sociological study of Chinese familism. The Golden Wing written in 1948 is a sociological study written in the form of a novel. Its theme is refreshingly simple in conception but like the painting of a bamboo leaf, its austere form conceals a high degree of art. The story sets out to examine why, of two families living side by side in a Fukien village in South China, and related by kinship and business interests, one should continue to prosper through adversity and the other should first flourish and then decline.

The Whirling White Light Ride in Heaven
Author: Greg Belter
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491706937
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
Adventure on into the upper realm of heaven. All events will be most enjoyable while your mind will be elevated, as you'll find the spiritual power of the Lord most exciting to feel inside of the human psyche. The intuitive side is in the far depths of your mind, body and soul. That will immediately blend in with the specific movements and new beginning of life on the other side, which is most commonly known as heaven above. The interpreter helps bring forth messages from there, only as a special helper who steps outside of the body and goes on inside of the spirit world. For more of an understanding of the fantastic, tender, and a Godly way of spiritual life. All of the love given from God with the Lord by His Mother's side, undoubtedly will be shared. When we die it won't be that unusual to be visiting with the Virgin Mary and Her family. Just wait until you're taken on this "big ride." The Whirling White Light Ride in Heaven is real and a total blast.

Author: Vice-President Eleanor G Sims
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300090382
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
This book is the first survey of the figural arts of the Iranian world from prehistoric times to the early twentieth century ever to consider themes, rather than styles. Analyzing primarily painting - in manuscripts and albums, on walls and on lacquered, painted pen boxes and caskets - but also the related arts of sculpture, ceramics, and metalwork, the author finds that the underlying themes depicted on them through the ages are remarkably consistent. Eleanor Sims demonstrates that all these arts display similar concerns: kingship and legitimacy; the righteous exercise of princely power and the defense of national territory; and the performance of rituals and the religious duties called for by the paramount cult of the day. She describes a variety of superb works of art inside and outside these categories, noting not only how they illustrate archetypal themes but also what it is about them that is unique. She also discusses the ways that Iranian art both influenced and was influenced by invaders and neighboring lands. Boris I. Marshak discusses pre-Islamic and also Central Asian art, in particular the earliest Iranian wall paintings and their pictorial parallels in rock carvings and metalwork, and the richly painted temples and houses of Panjikent. Ernst J. Grube considers religious imagery, and provides an informative bibliography.

Ghost Rider
Author: B. D. James
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595265340
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Not since Kiss of the Spider Woman has a story about the effects of persecution on the human mind interwoven fantastic and realistic elements as effectively. A story of biting irony and bitter satire, leaning heavily on Nabokov s Pale Fire, Ghost Rider addresses contemporary social concerns with its elegant, crisp prose. The protagonist has no name and no identity. Together with her memory, they have been taken in a Latin American war. When she falls for a famous rider, she must descend into the pits of her past, to tell him her story, and is forced to add new chapters as she peels away hidden layers of herself. Initially, there seems to be nothing wrong with her, except for a strange affinity for ghosts. Her memories of fear-filled nights take her back to Peru, into the vengeful mind of an executed man. Claiming she has killed him, he tries to convince her of the advantages of being dead. To banish him, she sets music against her blood-reeking past. When she finally succeeds, she is eighty-two. But it might be a dream, like the rest of her story, or her final nightmare. Nothing rules out that she could awake in the torture chamber, facing her final hour.
