Bøger om Indoeuropæiske sprog

SØGER MAN AT få bekræftet det mytologiske billede af Clarice som en smuk, kølig og lukket forfatter, går man forgæves her. I brevene overrumpler hun os med sin ømhed, sine blotlagte svagheder, sin menneskelighed. Og selvom man mærker en modvilje mod at blive læst biografisk, åbner forfatteren også for sit forhold til sine værker og sit arbejde med skriften og giver os nye blikke på litteraturen, både andres og den hun selv skabte. Men også moderskabet, venskabet, familien, forfatterpligter, oversættelsesgenvordigheder og meget andet diskuteres af denne brevskriver, der gennem hele sit voksenliv synes både at plages af og insistere på særligt én ting: sin ret til at tvivle.

The book is an account of the life and spiritual journey of Paramahansa Yogananda, who was born in India in 1893. Yogananda's early years are marked by a deep interest in spirituality and a desire to seek truth and enlightenment. He describes his encounters with several spiritual teachers and gurus during his youth, including Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri, who became his principal guru and mentor.The autobiography recounts Yogananda's experiences and spiritual insights, including his training in the ancient science of Kriya Yoga, a meditation and spiritual practice. He also shares his travels in India and his interactions with various spiritual figures, including Mahatma Gandhi.Yogananda's journey takes him to the United States, where he introduces the teachings of yoga and meditation to a Western audience. He establishes the Self-Realization Fellowship, an organization devoted to disseminating the teachings of Kriya Yoga and spiritual self-realization.Throughout the book, Yogananda discusses the interconnectedness of various religious and spiritual traditions and emphasizes the universal principles that underlie all spiritual paths. He shares personal stories and mystical experiences, making a compelling case for the transformative power of yoga and meditation in achieving self-realization and spiritual awakening.The "Autobiography of a Yogi" is regarded as a spiritual classic and has been highly influential in the spread of yoga and Eastern spirituality in the West. It has inspired countless individuals on their spiritual journeys and continues to be widely read and respected by people seeking a deeper understanding of the inner workings of the mind and the quest for self-realization. The book's universal message of seeking divine wisdom and realization transcends cultural and religious boundaries.

Josy, datter af den anerkendte psykiater Viktor Larenz, er forsvundet under mystiske omstændigheder. Viktor kan ikke komme sig over sit tab og lever tilbagetrukket i et sommerhus på en afsidesliggende, lille ø. Men en dag opsøger en fremmed kvinde ham i hans selvvalgte eksil. Kvinden lider af skizofrene vrangforestillinger hvor en lille pige, der har mange ligheder med Josy, bliver ved med at dukke op.

Et flertal af menneskene på jorden har stadigvæk opstanden imod det politiske tyranni til gode. Ligeledes erfarer de fleste også i dag dagligt indskrænkningen af deres frihed igennem trykket fra den såkaldt ydre realitet. Med udgangspunkt i to ur-scener i den europæiske friheds historie viser den tyske filosof Peter Sloterdijk, hvordan begge disse former for undertrykkelse er varianter af stressoplevelser. Hans grundlæggende interesse gælder konflikten mellem frihed og socialitet og opkomsten af den potentielt asociale og samfundsnedbrydende frihed.

Sona si Latine logueris! (Honk if you speak Latin!)This is a book of English-to-Latin translation and sentence building exercises, an optional companion to the Latin for Kids textbook. It is the essential first step toward active use of Latin.Like Latin for Kids, this companion is divided into 10 sections. In each section the translation exercises use the grammar introduced in the corresponding lesson of Latin for Kids. Additional vocabulary is also offered. Exercises deliver each new grammar subject step-by-step. For example, working with the Genitive Case singular, we first practice using the Genitive case with nouns, then add pronouns and adjectives in the next exercise. The last translation in each section is a vocabulary review.Answer Key pages follow each set of exercises. The Answer Keys are designed to be cut out if desired, without losing any other material in the book. As an extra challenge, in the Answer Key Latin translations I indicate long vowels and suggest remembering those noun and verb endings that always contain long vowels.In addition to translation exercises, each lesson offers sentence building practice. Using provided word groups, we make sentences following a simple pattern. E.g: We use the verb 'dare' - to give, and match a source (in Nominative Case) to a product (in Accusative Case): A cow gives us milk. A garden gives us flowers. A vineyard gives us grapes... etc.As in Latin for Kids, this book contains a lot of additional educational material:- lots of Latin inscriptions - on monuments, buildings, and sundials, on ancient Roman coins and modern currency, including a dollar bill and a one-pound British coin;- mottoes of US states and of countries around the world,- animal names in Latin;- interesting facts about ancient Roman cuisine;- mini-articles on etymology, such as the Latin origins of city names, last names that come from Latin (Cooper, Spenser, Palmer...), Latin origins of English words, such as 'disaster,' 'torpedo,' and others;- jokes in Latin and Latin translations of modern-day memes, such as 'couch potato' and 'May the force be with you!')Much of the new vocabulary is presented in pictorial form - through colorful photos and illustrations.

Richly illustrated, this title describes Anglo-Saxon monarchs, warlords and their warriors and households in Anglo-Saxon Britain, from the first post-Roman mercenaries to the Norman Conquest.In a country fragmented by Roman withdrawal during the 5th century AD, the employment of Germanic mercenaries by local rulers in Anglo-Saxon Britain was commonplace. These mercenaries became settlers, forcing Romano-British communities into Wales and the West Country. Against a background of spreading Christianity, the struggles of rival British and Anglo-Saxon kingdoms were exploited by the Vikings, but eventually contained by the Anglo-Saxon king, Alfred of Wessex. His descendants unified the country during the 10th century, however, subsequent weak rule saw its 25-year incorporation into a Danish empire before it finally fell to the Norman invasion of 1066. Scholars of the early Church have long known that the term 'Dark Ages' for the 5th to 11th centuries in Britain refers only to a lack of written sources, and gives a false impression of material culture. The Anglo-Saxon warrior elite were equipped with magnificent armour, influenced by the cultures of the late Romans, the Scandinavian Vendel people, the Frankish Merovingians, Carolingians and Ottonians, and also the Vikings. In this volume, co-authors Raffaele D'Amato and Stephen Pollington access their extended knowledge to paint a vivid picture of the kings and warlords of the time with the aid of colour illustrations, rare photos and the latest archaeological research.
