Download I Ching Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book contains a dramatic and revealing translation of this ancient classic into English. The Chinese original is set side-by-side with the translation. Two things set this work apart from other translated versions. First, archeological findings are used to uncover the meaning of passages obscured for thousands of years. Second, it preserves the flavor of the original in a poetic rendition. An introductory part of this book provides the historical and philosophical background to the I Ching . The story is told of the ancient Chinese civilization, pointing out events and figures mentioned in the I Ching . The undisguised face of the I Ching will appeal to the modern reader, who will read it in his or her own individual way, as poetry, as discoverer of self, or as soothsayer. It is in the grand tradition of the I Ching for different people to see different things.: To Confucius, who was born in 550 B.C., it was a source of ethics.; To Leibnitz, the eighteenth-century inventor of calculus, it was the essence of binary mathematics.; To Jung Freud''s rival in psychology, it was an explorer of the unconscious.; To some Wall Streeters, it predicts the stock market. This second edition includes a new chapter on a historical perspective, and other additions, changes and minor reformatting. Sample Chapter(s). Chapter 1: Introduction (285 KB). Readership: Graduate and undergraduate students, academic researchers, scholars who are interested in Chinese classics, history and culture; general audience interested in Chinese classics and culture.

“The ghosts of the Civil War never leave us, as David Blight knows perhaps better than anyone, and in this superb book he masterfully unites two distant but inextricably bound events.”―Ken Burns Standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963, a century after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation, Martin Luther King, Jr., declared, “One hundred years later, the Negro still is not free.” He delivered this speech just three years after the Virginia Civil War Commission published a guide proclaiming that “the Centennial is no time for finding fault or placing blame or fighting the issues all over again.” David Blight takes his readers back to the centennial celebration to determine how Americans then made sense of the suffering, loss, and liberation that had wracked the United States a century earlier. Amid cold war politics and civil rights protest, four of America’s most incisive writers explored the gulf between remembrance and reality. Robert Penn Warren, the southern-reared poet-novelist who recanted his support of segregation; Bruce Catton, the journalist and U.S. Navy officer who became a popular Civil War historian; Edmund Wilson, the century’s preeminent literary critic; and James Baldwin, the searing African-American essayist and activist—each exposed America’s triumphalist memory of the war. And each, in his own way, demanded a reckoning with the tragic consequences it spawned. Blight illuminates not only mid-twentieth-century America’s sense of itself but also the dynamic, ever-changing nature of Civil War memory. On the eve of the 150th anniversary of the war, we have an invaluable perspective on how this conflict continues to shape the country’s political debates, national identity, and sense of purpose.

An ancient relic threatens to destroy the world, and a tattooed man with no memory begins an adventure cloaked in mystery. Alex Sheridan has powers. He never questions why he can manipulate locks, phase out of sight, or read people’s emotions; he just knows that he can. With his abilities, he’s an expert at stealing rare items to order, and does it without guilt. But with his adoptive parents dead, his partner murdered, and no idea who he really is, he journeys to Greece to face his past. Only instead of finding family and the reason for the scars he’s covered in tattoos; he’s pulled into the mystery of an ancient story and a new love. Luke MacKinnon is a professor of ancient languages, and he instinctively knows Alex is no ordinary man. The first time they meet, Luke is intrigued by Alex’s tattoos written in a language long forgotten, and his eyes that hold a millennium of secrets. When their paths cross for a second time, he’s told that Alex is his soulmate, but even if he believed that, what kind of god would put him together with a criminal who steals the very things that Alex wants to study? When they work together to locate the Oracle, it’s only because both men have targets on their backs. Despite the evil that wants the Oracle, can Alex and Luke find love, or is finding the truth the end of them both? This MM Gay Paranormal Romantic Suspense from RJ Scott includes soulmates who would die for each other, secrets and lies, murder, an ancient curse, and of course a happily ever after.
