Nicholas R. Mann

    Nicholas Mann bol uznávaným učencom, ktorého dielo osvetľovalo svet talianskeho humanizmu, so zvláštnym zameraním na kľúčovú postavu Petrarku. Jeho akademické vedenie zahŕňalo aj riadenie Warburg Institute, kde viedol vedecké bádanie viac ako desať rokov. Ako emeritný profesor na Univerzite v Londýne jeho prínos významne formoval pochopenie a štúdium renesančného myslenia. Mannov odkaz spočíva v hlbokom zapojení do intelektuálnych prúdov humanizmu a jeho schopnosti odovzdávať jeho komplexnosť novým generáciám.

    Posvátná geometrie Washingtonu: Integrita a síla původního projektu
    • Zasvěcené a objevné dílo anglického spisovatele a geomanta ukazuje, že systém čísel a geometrických proporcí, užívaný v chrámech a městech mnoha dávných civilizací, je přítomný i v původním plánu hlavního města Spojených států amerických. Autorem tohoto plánu byl geniální architekt francouzského původu Pierre Charles L´Enfant, jenž novému hlavnímu městu americké federace, které vyrůstalo takříkajíc na zelené louce, vtiskl jeho jedinečnou podobu. Ve svém velkolepém projektu vymezil a vyvážil moc lidu, jednotlivých států Unie, justice, legislativy a prezidenta.

      This short course sets out a detailed study of the text, philosophy, and significance of the millennia-old yoga system defined in the Yogasutras. The popular practice of yoga finds its origin in one of the most venerated wisdom books of India: the Yogasutras. Comprised of 196 short statements on the essential teachings of yoga, Patanjali’s Yogasutras holds the position of being the seminal work that defines the yoga system. Over the centuries many important commentaries have been written that seek to explain and extrapolate the full meaning of the sutras, and to this day, the text continues to be appreciated for the profound wisdom contained within it. While the Yogasutras were originally written in Sanskrit, this short course offers an accessible translation and commentary without sacrificing any of its profound wisdom. This edition will allow the reader to study and dive into the meaning and philosophy of this ancient text with its significant contemporary relevance. Yoga students, practitioners, and scholars alike will appreciate the way in which this short course guides the reader through the text

      Perhaps the most mystical, magical people ever known were the Druids. They were wizards, storytellers, teachers and spiritual leaders. They were attuned to the Earth and the Sun. And they were very powerful. Druid Magick presents everything you need to know to become a Druid and even start your own Druid "Grove" (the name of a Druid group). Learn about the Druid's tools―the sickle, wand, cord, and more―and how to make and use them. Discover all of the beliefs the Druids hold, including the emphasis on honor and ethics. And, of course, you'll learn the secrets of the magic of the Druids. Druidry is far more than historic Celtic leadership. It is a living, growing, spiritual tradition that can bring you more self-assurance and self-development than you've before ever had.
