Book Description
In this small book the voice of Sacred Mother Earth - Sacra Gaea - is heard with a plea for humanity. A reckoning is coming, she warns, but there is still time to change. Hers is a motherly voice, sometimes stern, sometimes loving, but always intent on warning her errant human children that their actions have consequences. Sacra Gaea reminds us that we are but one small piece of a much larger puzzle, and that we are subject to the Wisdom and justice of the universe. We can only continue on our destructive path for a limited time before natural laws restore harmony.

Book Description
They were bred as hybrids in an advanced futuristic parallel world countless light years away from Gaea, somewhere within the maze of the universe. Radan, Motaro, Falbala, along with their families, were sent to earth by their breeders for an experimental purpose during medieval times in Europe. The hybrids with mythological looks, gifted supernatural abilities, and wide genetic memories were wrongly taken for demons and evil creatures as they made contact with humans. They sought friendship and found home with a shaman’s three children and bonded together with them. Following a couple of mysteriously tragic events, and after he saved the village from a ravaging fast acting disease, Radan was determined to override his breeder’s plan and make Gaea his forever home, choosing to stay by Ara’s side (the shaman’s older daughter).

Historical Thinking
Author: Sam Wineburg
Publisher: Temple University Press
ISBN: 9781439903018
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Since ancient times, the pundits have lamented young people's lack of historical knowledge and warned that ignorance of the past surely condemns humanity to repeating its mistakes. In the contemporary United States, this dire outlook drives a contentious debate about what key events, nations, and people are essential for history students. Sam Wineburg says that we are asking the wrong questions. This book demolishes the conventional notion that there is one true history and one best way to teach it. Although most of us think of history -- and learn it -- as a conglomeration of facts, dates, and key figures, for professional historians it is a way of knowing, a method for developing and understanding about the relationships of peoples and events in the past. A cognitive psychologist, Wineburg has been engaged in studying what is intrinsic to historical thinking, how it might be taught, and why most students still adhere to the one damned thing after another concept of history. Whether he is comparing how students and historians interpret documentary evidence or analyzing children's drawings, Wineburg's essays offer rough maps of how ordinary people think about the past and use it to understand the present. Arguing that we all absorb lessons about history in many settings -- in kitchen table conversations, at the movies, or on the world-wide web, for instance -- these essays acknowledge the role of collective memory in filtering what we learn in school and shaping our historical thinking.

The Oxford Handbook of Ancient Greek Religion
Author: Esther Eidinow
Publisher: Oxford Handbooks
ISBN: 0199642036
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 737
Book Description
This handbook offers both students and teachers of ancient Greek religion a comprehensive overview of the current state of scholarship in the subject, from the Archaic to the Hellenistic periods. It not only presents key information, but also explores the ways in which such information is gathered and the different approaches that have shaped the area. In doing so, the volume provides a crucial research and orientation tool for students of the ancient world, and also makes a vital contribution to the key debates surrounding the conceptualization of ancient Greek religion. The handbook's initial chapters lay out the key dimensions of ancient Greek religion, approaches to evidence, and the representations of myths. The following chapters discuss the continuities and differences between religious practices in different cultures, including Egypt, the Near East, the Black Sea, and Bactria and India. The range of contributions emphasizes the diversity of relationships between mortals and the supernatural - in all their manifestations, across, between, and beyond ancient Greek cultures - and draws attention to religious activities as dynamic, highlighting how they changed over time, place, and context.
