    Disparities Are Just Deserts: 1844 Couplets in Contention , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 293min
    Disparities are just deserts, between the good and bad in competition seen. 1844 maxims of rhythmic justice and assertive rhyme, carried forward in the cause of human dissimilarity upon competitive pretensions for rewards, merciless poetry manifest. Successful emulation in enterprise these unemasculated couplets may inspire. Book One enlarges on justice, maintaining that disparities justly may flourish where no monopolistic state or centralized monotony prevents them. In Book Two, the undigested individual is regarded as the likeliest exemplar of fulfilled attainments. At large egalitarian larceny Leaves Shakespeare no distinguished property. ungekürzt.

    The Gospel of John in Greek
    This book contains a full textcritical apparatus with conclusions on the Gospel of John. The Greek text in all its variety stands at its base and it is then compared with a great number of textual witnesses: Syriac, Latin, Coptic, Armenian, Georgian, Ethiopian, Dutch and also with Palestinian, Georgian and Dutch Lectionaries and the Diatessaron in all its variety. These last categories are often neglected in textcritical research, but they appear to be an outstanding textual witness to the early textforms of the Gospel. Also some early fathers, Origen and Ephrem, are included . This book is thus a contribution to the International Greek New Testament-Project, as it enlarges its scope to a wider range of textual witnesses.

    On Autumn Lake (eBook, ePUB)
    On Autumn Lake collects four decades of prose (1976-2020) by renowned poet and beloved cult figure Douglas Crase, with an emphasis on idiosyncratic essays about quintessentially American poets and the enduring transcendentalist tradition.

Douglas Crase's prose is rich with conviction and desire, inspiring as John Yau wrote, the kind of attention usually reserved for poetry. His essays, written as rhythmically as poems, take a personal rather than abstract approach, offering committed and sometimes intimate portraits of John Ashbery, James Schuyler, Lorine Niedecker, and others. With generosity of spirit, Crase shares his devotion to poetry, democracy, and landscape in this handsome volume that greatly enlarges the available body of his work and will be seen as the essential complement to his collected poems.

    From Bacteria to Bach and Back
    Human consciousness fascinates thinking people from poets and painters to physicists, psychologists and philosophers. Daniel C. Dennetts From Bacteria to Bach and Back extends perspectives from his earlier work in surprising directions, exploring the deep interactions of evolution, brains and human culture. Part philosophical whodunit, part bold scientific conjecture, this landmark work enlarges themes that have sustained Dennetts legendary career at the forefront of philosophical thought. In his inimitable style - laced with wit and arresting thought experiments - Dennett shows how culture enables reflection by installing a bounty of thinking tools or memes in our brains. Language, itself composed of memes, turbocharged this interplay. The result, a mind that can comprehend the questions it poses, emerges from a process of cultural evolution.

    Self Representation: Studies in World Art, Book 71 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 33min
    The Gale Dictionary of Psychoanalysis defines ‘self-representation’ as “the image the subject has of him or herself based on his or her own interpretation.” The hugely influential 20th century psychoanalytic researcher and philosopher Jacques Lacan enlarges on this by speaking of “the finally donned armor of an alienating identity that will mark [the subject’s] mental development with its rigid structure.” Not surprisingly, psychoanalysts see this construct as a manifestation of the ego, and also as something intimately linked to narcissism.  In extreme forms, according to Gale, delusional self-representation leads the individual to think of himself (or herself) as the savior of the world, “self-procreator of all human lineages, or other such variant.” ungekürzt.

    The Age of Fable: Bulfinch’s Mythology, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 783min
    Many of the world's travails may be traced to the displacement of mythology by the age of science. Knowledge today is often deemed useful only if it enlarges our possessions or raises our station in society. If instead the criterion were to make us happier and more virtuous, mythology would have retained its proper place in society. The Age of Fable is Thomas Bulfinch's brilliant reconstruction of the ancient myths and legends that form the backbone of Western culture. Drawn from a variety of classic sources, including Ovid's Metamorphoses, Egyptian myths, Eastern mythology, and Hindu, Norse, and Celtic works, these selections form a remarkable tapestry of human endeavor: dreams, illusions, adventures, and loves. Included are the legends of Cupid and Psyche, Venus and Adonis, Hero and Leander, Hercules, and many others. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mary Woods.

    A Larger Faith: The Book of Daniel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 281min
    Ask any child, or adult for that matter, what they associate with the biblical figure of Daniel, and lions come to mind. We marvel at a faith willing to face hungry lions rather than fail in service to God. If we remember anything else from the book, it’s the amazing experience of his three friends, Shadrach, Meshack, and Abednego, who willingly faced a fiery furnace rather than compromise their faith....But the Book of Daniel does more than demonstrate faith. By documenting a series of extraordinary predictive visions given to Daniel, it also describes the worldview that naturally enlarges faith.Here is a faith-based and rational overview of the Old Testament book that, perhaps more than any other, sets the stage for the coming of Jesus Christ and the age of gospel expansion that will conclude with his return. ungekürzt.
