¿Cabría encuadrar la poesía de Tirso Camacho Martínez-Carrasco en la conocida como "generación del 98"? Arranca la generación con el llamado "Grupo de los tres"- (Azorín, Baroja y Maeztu) que comenzaron a escribir de una manera juvenil, hipercrítica e izquierdista, aunque más tarde se orientará hacia lo tradicional. Pronto, Maeztu, y especialmente Baroja, negaron la existencia de tal generación. No obstante, posteriormente se sumaron algunos otros como, Ángel Ganivet (considerado por algunos autores como un precursor de la generación), los sevillanos hermanos Antonio y Manuel Machado y el filólogo Manuel Menéndez Pidal, entre otros. Componente de otra generación, la del 27, el gran poeta y ensayista Pedro Salinas afirmó en 1935 la existencia de la del 98, y para ello basó su análisis en el concepto "generación literaria". Se trata de un conjunto de escritores vinculados por una serie de ideologías y de estilos en un período de tiempo determinado, por lo general, de unos quince años, es decir, hasta 1915, o bien, hasta la crisis española de 1917. Así pues, a la vista de estos datos ¿cabría encuadrar la poesía de Tirso Camacho en la "generación del 98"? El tiempo dirá.

Il "Poeta dimenticato" vol. secondo. Raccolta di poeti in auge nella prima metà del secolo scorso in Sicilia.

Tirso Camacho, un poeta que ha sido laureado en numerosos juegos florales tanto dentro como fuera de esta región, publicó en 1908 un libro de versos bajo el título 'Auras de arriba'. Casi todas las poesías que conforman este volumen, bellamente impreso en las instalaciones de los sucesores de Nogués, han recibido premios en los mencionados juegos, tal como lo señala el propio autor. Este detalle indica que los versos de Tirso ya han sido juzgados favorablemente por personas de gran erudición. El libro se inicia con una conmovedora composición dedicada a su madre, que mereció la Flor Natural en los juegos florales celebrados en esta ciudad en el año 1901. El jurado de estos juegos estuvo compuesto por D. Federico Balart, D. Pedro Díaz Cassou y D. Juan José Herránz. Todas las poesías de Tirso están inspiradas en temas nobles y elevados. El autor canta a la patria, al amor, a la fe, al progreso, al trabajo y a la caridad; por ello ha titulado su libro 'Auras de arriba', un título que le sienta perfectamente.

Two Women describes the experiences of Bobbie and Dorothy who are both spiritualist mediums. The personal accounts are used to explore clairvoyant phenomenon from two different approaches: a traditional spiritualist explanation and a unique perspective which draws on psychoanalytic theory.

Nuestro poeta quiso escribir un libro sobre sus poemas de Luciérnagas y Sensitivas, pero nunca llegó a cumplir este deseo. Observamos este anhelo en su libro Auras de Arriba del 1908 y en el periódico El Diario, donde bajo la rúbrica Luciérnagas nos hace saber que los poemas a continuación eran inéditos y correspondían a "Del libro en preparación Luciérnagas y Sensitivas". Al principio, Tirso Camacho comenzó en "Luciérnagas y Sensativas" con poemas sin título, indicando solamente los números romanos I, II, III, etc., pero esto cambió rápidamente meses más tarde por números romanos con sus correspondientes títulos. Es probable que nuestro poeta tuviera hecho un borrador de este libro, porque publicó la mayoría de estos poemas en los periódicos, destacando El Diario de Murcia. Por otra parte, publicó en su libro de 1908 algunos versos: La Pira, Virtud, La Dicha, El Lago, Claro-Obscuro, Estrellas errantes, Amor al prójimo, Expiación, Compasión, Soñar despierto, y Tierra y Cielo. No ha sido tarea fácil colocar todos los poemas en el lugar adecuado, porque muchos poemas no tienen número y con otros no sabemos si pertenecen al grupo de Luciérnagas o al de Sensitivas. Por estas razones, se han creado varios grupos para facilitar la lectura de los poemas.

Soldier, pioneer aviator, dry fly fisherman, prophetic dreamer and philosopher, JW Dunne was an extraordinary and fascinating character. Famous from 1910 until the postwar era, his seminal work on precognitive dreams became a bestseller. Many of his achievements have been lost to history, yet their stories form an astonishing tapestry of interweaving threads which changed much of the world around us today. He befriended greats such as HG Wells, lived much of his life in a moated castle, wrote to Hitler to try and prevent a Second World War, contemplated founding a new religion. This detailed, fascinating and highly readable account of his life is the first of its kind, made possible only by the Science Museum's recent acquisition of his vast professional archive. A comprehensive bibliography and index round it off for the serious historian.

In the vast tapestry of human thought, there exists a profound and enduring thread of philosophical inquiry. This thread, woven through the centuries, has been a relentless pursuit of understanding the fundamental nature of reality, the cosmos, and the human condition. "Ancient Philosophers: The Pro-Socratics, Sophists and Atomists" embarks on a journey through the annals of intellectual history, exploring the origins of Western philosophy and the thinkers who laid its foundational stones. The Pre-Socratic philosophers, often regarded as the trailblazers of Western philosophy, dared to question the world's mysteries and propose rational explanations. From Thales' assertion that "everything is water" to Heraclitus' profound insights into the nature of change, these ancient thinkers paved the way for the philosophical traditions that would follow. Philosophy is not solely an exercise in metaphysical contemplation. It also delves into the realm of human thought, ethics, and rhetoric. The Sophists, a group of itinerant teachers and intellectuals, offered a contrasting perspective. They were masters of persuasion and eloquence, teaching the art of rhetoric and the relativity of truth. Figures like Protagoras, Gorgias, and Prodicus challenged conventional wisdom and questioned the nature of knowledge and morality. In "Ancient Philosophers," we embark on an exploration of these intellectual luminaries, their ideas, and their lasting impact. Each chapter is a portal into the life and thought of a different philosopher, presenting their unique contributions to the world of ideas. From the enigmatic Heraclitus to the pragmatic Protagoras, we encounter diverse minds and perspectives that continue to resonate in modern philosophy.

Introduction My name is Joanne Moyles, And I am 52 years old. "I grew up not in a happy family, full of violence, alcohol, domestic abuse, and no love. always felt like an outsider and from an early age was abused, that is when my mental health started. Isolating and crying in a lot of pain inside and out. I Felt like I was in my own prison cell, a lot of the times I did not want to be alive, I felt all my feelings and emotions were locked up inside me. When in a lot of dark places I would write poems because the people who I wanted to believe in me, people in authority, who could have stopped it, never did. In my mind I thought if I wrote it down it might help with all the pain I was feeling. I had drunk for a lot of years from a very young age, which led me going into rehab at 50 years old. I had hidden all the pain and emptiness and all my self-worth, behind drink and drugs. I still struggle day by day, sometimes it is a minute at a time but that is ok."

Dive into the heart and soul of a yogi. Wander through the fields of a turbulent century observed through the lens of a wry yet affectionate sense of humour. Expressing a vision that is both optimistic and profound, this book charts a route towards the fabled Golden Age of Enlightenment - a goal found to be enticingly close, yet seemingly beyond the reach of modern man. Drawing upon such disparate sources as the ancient "I Ching" and the engraver, poet and prophet William Blake, the author finds continuity between these distant voices as oracles whose fiery course across the heavens illuminates the condition of Man and revels in his inheritance. Inspired by his meditations, the author records in poetic expression, the deepening of the state of contemplation whose beauty beckons the seeker and yogi alike. Thrilling and revelatory, the inner mechanism of the subtle body system is examined providing a roadmap for the soul on the path to enlightenment. At the very heart of this book is a collection of personal memories of the greatest teacher of yoga that the world has seen, whose dedication to raising the awareness of humanity became her lifework. These simple stories reveal the love and warmth of a teacher who captured the hearts of all those who met her and allow the reader a glimpse into the light of a great soul.

Young Merlin, brought up equal shares Druid and Celtic Christian, has a dream. But, in AD 475, when he's been sent to Rome by Ambrosius - to study for the Priesthood with The Professionals - this young wizard extraordinaire has other ideas. Because... he also has a vision! It materialises alongside the dream in AD 525 when he meets a fellow traveller on the Via Ostia in post-Roman Italy who gives him a staff with two entwined snakes carved around it. In AD 1876, the vision gets bigger, and it keeps changing shape. Almost as often as he keeps time-slipping into the unexpected... In AD 2016, an ordinary archaeologist in Glastonbury has an extraordinary experience - which she excavates. She discovers a 9th-century Carolingian monastery that has never been built but matches the 9th-century plan of itself that was commissioned by Emperor Charlemagne to perfection. What's more, it's in a 6th-century context in Somerset. In AD 2018, just as excavations of this strange anomaly are wrapping up, much stranger things than its mere existence are beginning to happen with exponential rapidity, and Vanda is forced to give up all thought of control in a life that is spiralling so out of control that it no longer seems to be her own. Then there's the fortuitous appearance of Brian and his mysterious legacy... more than sufficient to rebuild the monastery, of course... you know, the one that was never built? But will Vanda's talents meet this legacy's peculiar criteria? Are you brave and steadfast enough to join them all on their roller-coaster ride through history, the discovery of some of Time's Most Precious Hidden Secrets, and a lot of beautiful scenery? After all, there will be a dragon or two, perhaps a hideous monster, and maybe even a spaceship... it'll be Magic!

After acquiring a little plot of land surrounded by dry-stone walls, the author reminisces the experiences and sensations of the past nine months spent to transform the barren green space into an English garden paradise. Her memories and immediate observations bubble up in her mind over the three hours she spends sitting in her garden one summer morning while waiting for her new friends, the former owners of the plot, to turn up for their very first visit. The garden layout is meant to be a surprise for them because they last saw their land the year earlier, before they sold it to the author. The encounter of the former owners with the new proprietor, the writer, leads the latter to finally discover the reasons behind the sale. The motives are a real eye opener and truly astounding and they point to one and only one entity, the Spirit of the Place, otherwise known as Genius Loci, who plotted lovingly behind the scenes to lure its guests all together in order to ensure its potential to flourish and to be cherished.

Dieses Buch legt grundlegende Fehler aller feministischer Wellen dar. Es entwickelt Argumente, die noch nie von anderen Autoren im Zusammenhang dargestellt wurden. Das Werk behandelt eine menschliche Universalie, die genauso grundlegend und wichtig ist wie Sprache: eine beide Geschlechter verbindende Kultur durch Geschlechterergänzung. Umfassende wissenschaftliche Nachweise, dazu Dokumentation schädlicher woker Kampagnen und Herausarbeitung der Ursache gesellschaftlicher Verirrung sind Hauptthemen des Buches. Daher kann es als ein Hauptwerk Jan Deichmohles angesehen werden, von dem aus sich die anderen seiner Sachbücher erschließen. Ein Anhang führt bislang übersehene Folgen von Massenmigration vor Augen. Unsre Gesellschaft ist besessen von Pseudoproblemen, die es ohne ihre Besessenheit nicht gäbe. Damit schafft sie massive echte Probleme, die sie genauso besessen empört leugnet.

Islam has destroyed many nations and governments over a course of fourteen hundred years. America is vulnerable and will fall to Islam if we do not wake up to some sobering truths and change our course. We have been mishandling the issues of Islam, and this is putting our nation at great risk. If the bastion of freedom, the United States, falls who will carry the banner? Many of my Canadian friends have shared their fears with me and are worried about their future if America botches this threat from Islam. For almost a decade, I have been arguing the issues of Islam. I have studied this religion in order to understand the source that drives fundamental Muslims to violence and terrorism. Having gained some valuable insights through my study, I have devised strategies that successfully win arguments on Islam. This book will give the reader real ammunition to effectively combat the issues of Islam in the arena of debate and argument.

As a child, I thought war was just a game. As I grew up, I found out that war is very real and its effects devastating. I was taught ("conditioned") to believe that war is necessary, and grew up believing this. Now that I'm an adult, I'm interested in understanding what causes war and what each of us can do to end it. This book is intended to help you understand conditioning, because I think that what we call "conditioning" is the main cause of conflict - inside us as tension, fear, hate and anger, and outside as war. If we can become aware of how we are "conditioned" in our day-to-day life, then we can understand how such conditioning can lead to world conflict. Conditioning, and what causes it, is the "invisible enemy" because it is often unseen, hidden. The usual approach to dealing with this "enemy" is to fight it which just makes the situation worse. However, if you can understand conditioning, you can be free of it.

More Or Less is a tribute to how one can change seemingly dismal situations, and generational conditioning, into what quickly became the most exhilarating ride of her life.

GESÙ spesso si ritirava nel deserto, o sul monte a pregare, alzandosi presto al mattino o passando la notte in preghiera. Questo comportamento non passò inosservato, agli Apostoli che, continuamente, dicevano: "Signore insegnaci a pregare", richiamando il comando del Signore sulla necessità di una preghiera perseverante per essere in comunione con Dio e per santificarsi. Gli Apostoli si riunivano per la preghiera all'ora di terza. Lo stesso Pietro "salì verso mezzogiorno sulla terrazza a pregare"; allo stesso modo "Pietro e Giovanni salivano al tempio per la preghiera verso le tre del pomeriggio".... Il Breviario, o Liturgia delle ore, è la preghiera per mezzo di, con e in Cristo. L'unione con Gesù è resa possibile solo ed esclusivamente dall'appartenenza al suo Corpo Mistico: la Chiesa ! Infatti, chi ha ricevuto i Sacramenti dell'iniziazione cristiana diventa partecipe del sacerdozio di Cristo e quindi anche della sua continua preghiera. In questo senso Cristo è presente e opera la salvezza non solo durante la Celebrazione del Santo Sacrificio dell'Altare, ma anche nella preghiera della Liturgia delle Ore (Breviario) che è la preghiera ufficiale della chiesa. Il suo nome indica che non si tratta di un atto privato o individuale, ma di un "atto liturgico", ovvero qualcosa che riguarda tutta la Chiesa, Clero e fedeli; perciò appartiene a tutti i suoi membri. La preghiera rappresenta un diritto e un dovere di ogni battezzato. Il richiamo alle Ore ci aiuta a capire che lo scopo primario di questa azione liturgica è la santificazione della giornata e del tempo. Infatti, santificare le "Ore" significa santificare la vita per renderla vita divina.
