Greece Knowledge Cards (limited supply) More Europe Themed Gifts Comprising several city-states and colonies united by a common language and culture (and, periodically, by formal alliance), ancient Greece held considerable sway even before Alexander the Great conquered most of the known world; its influence continues to this day. From the Greeks, we have inherited many of our fundamental ideas about art, architecture, literature, government, and law, not to mention the Olympic games and the most poetic of mythologies. This deck of Knowledge Cards draws on the vast resources of the British Museum to present an illuminating glimpse into the cradle of Western civilization. Each of the forty-eight cards features a color photograph of an antiquity--a sculpture, pottery vessel, architectural fragment, or other Greek artifact--that relates to a particular topic, addressed in a concise essay on the back of the card. Text and images introduce you to important personages (both real-life and mythical), historical periods, aspects of daily and ceremonial life, neighboring peoples, and masterpieces of classical Greek culture. This item consists of 48 individual cards, each one containing a photograph on one side and a narrative on the other side. The cards are made of heavy card stock, measure 3 1/4" x 4" (larger than a standard deck of cards), and packed in a box. Makes a great souvenir, party favor, promotional item, or addition to a Gift Basket. Also great for Guest Amenities! |

Key abstractions include: a. The Lord God Almighty directly communicated and breathed into the spirit and thoughts of anointed and appointed oracles the words that compose the Bible. b. The fulfillment of numerous biblical prophecies provides objective and unequivocal evidence for the supernatural origination of the Bible. c. The authors of the Bible were direct eyewitnesses of God's ministry, which strongly validates the credibility of their written biblical accounts. d. The authors of the Bible were persecuted, tortured, and martyred for their ardent and earnest faithfulness, which presents serious confirmation of the facticity and determination of their witness. e. Although the original autographs of the biblical manuscripts are presumed lost, there exists an significant number of biblical manuscript copies that have been preserved from ancient times, and comparisons among the manuscripts show practical correlation. f. Multiple ancient biblical manuscript copies have formed the basis for editing and generating resultant Hebrew and Greek texts, which have been used as the basis for translation into multiple languages including English. g. The early Christians frequently quoted from the biblical manuscripts, and their writings provide an independent confirmation of the accuracy of manuscript preservation. h. The Christian Canon includes manuscripts carefully recognized as being inspired by God, and deliberately excludes manuscripts officiated and recognized as not being inspired. i. The Apocryphaand Pseudepigrapha include useful writings, but they are not inspired, and definitely should be separated from the canonical Scriptures. j. The Lord Jesus Christ was a historical personage, as evidenced through various and relatively impartial ancient non-Christian writings. k. |

Early Summer (DVD) Marriage Drama DVD - Writer/director Yasujiro Ozu combines two of his favorite themes--the culture clashes in modern Japan and the emergence of the independent Japanese woman--in Early Summer (Bakushu). Setsuko Hara plays a young woman of the post-war era who is promised in an arranged marriage. But too much has happened in the world and in the girl's own life to allow her to agree to this union without protest. The characters in Early Summer are neither remote historical personages nor distant foreigners. They are types as easily recognizable in Japan as in any country, and this commonality enhances the universal appeal of this austere film. Yasujiro Ozu collaborated on the script of Early Summer with Kogo Noda. - Early Summer (DVD) |

Zhuangzi Basic Writings < P> Only by understanding Dao (the Way of Nature) and dwelling in its unity can humankind achieve true happiness and freedom, in both life and death. This is the central tenet of the philosophy espoused by Zhuangzi (369?-286? B.C.) in the book that bears his name. A leading philosopher of the Daoist strain, Zhuangzi used parable and anecdote, allegory and paradox, to set forth the early ideas of what was to become the Daoist school. Witty and imaginative, enriched by brilliant imagery, and making sportive use of both mythological and historical personages (including even Confucius), this is a timeless classic.< /P> |

Women of the Twelfth Century, Volume 1 Eleanor of Aquitaine and Six Others <div>In this volume, Georges Duby examines the lives of prominent twelfth-century French women as well as popular female literary figures of that time. Focusing on medieval notions of women and love, Duby looks for the ideological motivations for the representation of the female sex. He analyzes the ways in which women's biographies were written and how female characters were treated in fable and legend, pointing to the social and political forces at work in these representations. <br><br>The historical personages include Eleanor of Aquitaine whose several marriages brought her wealth and autonomy; the virtuous Héloïse; and the visionary recluse Juette. Duby also studies the literary figures of St. Marie-Madeleine, a composite figure who personified the essential female traits of frailty, ardent love, and evangelicalism; Iseut, literary beloved of Tristan; and two other emblematic figures, Dorée d'Amour and Phénix—women who became ladies through chivalrous love.<br><br>Provocative, informative, and entertaining, this book offers new insight on courtly love and the representations of women under medieval patriarchy.<br></div> |
