These pursuits are determined through tests, and Tobius finds himself to be the first seeker of justice in a thousand years. Finding himself to be the predecessor to the nightmare the Keepers dare not speak about, he discovers the plot of an entity set on galactic destruction. Having to rely on his own instincts as well as the friends, he finds on the way. Tobius must not only find peace with his life but also save the galaxy from the ghost of the Keepers' secret past.

The Zephyrs of Najd
Author: Jaroslav Stetkevych
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226773353
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Arabs have traditionally considered classical Arabic poetry, together with the Qur'an, as one of their supreme cultural accomplishments. Taking a comparatist approach, Jaroslav Stetkevych attempts in this book to integrate the classical Arabic lyric into an enlarged understanding of lyric poetry as a genre. Stetkevych concentrates on the "places of lost bliss" that furnish the dominant motif in the lyric-elegiac opening section (nasib) of the classic Arab code, or qusidah. In defining the Arabic lyrical genre, he shows how pre-Islamic lamentations over abandoned campsites evolved, in Arabo-Islamic mystical poetry, into expressions of spiritual nostalgia. Stetkevych also draws intriguing parallels between the highlands of Najd in Arabic poetry and Arcadia in the European tradition. He concludes by exploring the degree to which the pastoral-paradisiacal archetype of the nasib pervades Arabic literary perception, from the pre-Islamic ode through the Thousand and One Nights and later texts. Enhanced by Stetkevych's sensitive translations of all the Arabic texts discussed, The Zephyrs of Najd brings the classical Arabic ode fully into the purview of contemporary literary and critical discourse.
