The Book of Merlyn
Author: T.H. White
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 147731735X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
The long-lost conclusion to The Once and Future King, in which King Arthur faces his final battle against his son. This magical account of King Arthur’s last night on earth, rediscovered in a collection of T. H. White’s papers at the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas at Austin, spent twenty-six weeks on the New York Times bestseller list following its publication in 1977. While preparing for his final, fatal battle with his bastard son, Mordred, Arthur returns to the Animal Council with Merlyn, where the deliberations center on ways to abolish war. More self-revealing than any other of White’s books, Merlyn shows his mind at work as he agonized over whether to join the fight against Nazi Germany while penning the epic that would become The Once and Future King. The Book of Merlyn has been cited as a major influence by such illustrious writers as Kazuo Ishiguro, J. K. Rowling, Helen Macdonald, Neil Gaiman, and Lev Grossman. “Arriving from beyond the curve of time and apparently from the grave, The Book of Merlyn stirs its own pages, saying, wait: you didn’t get the whole story. . . . It gives us a final glimpse of those two immortal characters, Wart and Merlyn, up close, slo-mo, with a considered and affectionate scrutiny. The book is an elegiac posting from a master storyteller of the twentieth century. Its reissue in our next century is just as welcome as when it first arrived forty years ago. . . . Certainly the moral questions about the military use of force perplex the world still. . . . The efficacy of treaties, the trading of insults among the potentates of the day, the testing of weapons, the weaponizing of trade—these strategies are still front and center. Rather terrifyingly so. We do well to revisit what that old schoolteacher of children, Merlyn, has been trying to point out to us about power and responsibility.” —Gregory Maguire, bestselling author of Wicked,from the foreword “Such a small thing, The Book of Merlyn, to hold so much. Joyful and despairing, heartbreaking, yet full of hope. As wonderful and fearful to read today as it was when I first found it in 1978. And the world has as much need of it today as it did then—more, perhaps. But will the world be ready to listen?” —Mercedes Lackey, New York Times–bestselling author of the Valdemar and Elves on the Road series

The Lucid View
Author: Aeolus Kephas
Publisher: SCB Distributors
ISBN: 1935487469
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
The first acceptance of paranoid awareness is that nothing is as it seems. This is the key to understanding the conspiracy of nature, the "matrix" that constitutes the foundation of paranoid awareness, and the forerunner to the lucid view. Paranoid awareness asks the question: Supposing the Truth happens to more or less coincide with what has been hitherto designated as impossible? Supposing what we call Reason has been a plot to systematically cut off all phenomena and thoughts that refuse to submit to its own arbitrary model of reality? Supposing ninety five percent of what is really going on in the world has been suppressed and damned, in order to maintain the current illusion of Consensus "Reality"? Supposing, in a word, that REALITY IS ELSEWHERE? This is the premise of The Lucid View. Consensus Reality is the ultimate secret society. It is so secret that even its members are unaware of its existence. Consensus Reality is a conspiracy to uphold the world. It is the means by which we communicate and agree upon the way things are, and the way they must be. So far as it is a functioning model, such a Consensus is valid. Insofar as it is not a functioning model, and is, as in our present case, on the verge of total breakdown, then such a Consensus is by definition invalid. At this point, it therefore becomes the right and responsibility of every thinking member of society to cancel his membership, and to option a new, higher or broader concept of "reality." This is The Lucid View. The Lucid View: Investigations in Eschatology and Paranoid Awareness An unorthodox analysis of conspiracy theory, ufology, extraterrestrialism, and occultism, The Lucid View takes us on an impartial journey through secret history, from the Gnostics and Templars, Crowley and Hitler1s occult alliance, the sorcery wars of Freemasonry and the Illuminati, "Alternative Three" covert space colonization, the JFK assassination, the Manson murders, Jonestown, 9/11, into Ufos and alien abductions, their relations to mind control technology and sorcery practices, with reference to inorganic beings and Kundalini energy. The book offers a balanced overview on religious, magical and paranoid beliefs as pertaining to the 21st century, and their social, psychological, and spiritual implications for humanity, the leading game player in the grand mythic drama of Armageddon.
