A strange Christian view and obsession with occultism in 1875 London. Of all the protean forms of misery that meet us in the bosom of that "stony-hearted stepmother, London," there is none that appeals so directly to our sympathies as the spectacle of a destitute child. In the case of the grown man or woman, sorrow and suffering are often traceable to the faults, or at best to the misfortunes of the sufferers themselves; but in the case of the child they are mostly, if not always, vicarious.
As the Roman territory increased, republican principles were corrupted; and an absolute monarchy was established long before the republican phraseology was abolished.
The book is reprinted as an addition to the TGS Historical Reprints. The Author has placed before the reader an account of the changes in the design of Decorative Furniture and Woodwork, from the earliest period of which we have any reliable or certain record until the present time.
The earliest history of the Incas collected by the Spanish Europeans. Did the Inca civilization have roots back to Atlantis?
A stark objective history of the Anglos(Angles)- i.e. the English people. It is rare to see the history of a people, since usually we only see histories of nations. This book could be compared to the history style of the Bible, in that it tells the accomplishments, and failures of the English race, as did the Bible of the Hebrew race.
Men's conceptions of the heroic change with changing years, and vary with each individual mind; hence it often happens that one person sees in a legend only the central heroism, while another sees only the inartistic details of medi
Read the History of Egypt written about 2500 years ago. It is rare that such an ancient history comes down to us from the ancient ages.
This is Budge's great work in defining how the gods of Egypt were related to each other and their functions. Understanding these ancient Egyptian gods brings you a greater understanding of the source of polytheism of Rome, Greece, and even the multi-headed god of Christianity, which is polytheism in a modified form. Another mystery in the Egyptian beliefs was their origin of monotheism which can be directly linked to the monotheism of Judaism and Islam.
The Ancient Egyptians not only had one of the most elaborate funeral rituals, that continues to fascinate scientists and archeologists, but they also had the most imaginative and exotic - dreams and plans for their 'future' life. E.A. Wallis Budge is the greatest Egyptologist that England ever produced. His books are written for both the scientist and the layman. They are not written over-using technical lingo, but enrich the layman's learning about Egypt.
E.A. Wallis Budge is probably the greatest Egyptologist that England ever produced. His books are written for both the scientist and the layman, in that they are not written in a style that over-uses technical lingo, that bars the layman from enjoying learning about Egypt.
Mithraism, a religion from Persia and India, is probably the original source of Christianity. Franz Cuzont wrote one of the few books investigating the religion of Mithra. Apparently the church covered up this religion to keep us from seeing the truth behind Christianity's origins, and archeology during the Age of Enlightenment reopened this history to us.
This being an in depth defense, based in facts, against the false propaganda of the Catholic Church, alleging Freemasonry is Satanic/Satan worshippers would be an over simplification of any works by Arthur Edward Waite. Waite is one of the great mystic authors and researchers from the Age of Enlightenment, when the 'church' was held up to the light of truth, and the church failed.
Lewis Spence is one of the 'greats' from the golden era of enlightenment. His mystical and historical insights are rarely matched by any authors and researchers today. Spence had a love for lost civilizations - Atlantis one of his favorites.
Follow Landor into the Forbidden Land of Tibet, where the environment and weather is hostile to outsiders, along with it's rulers. Yet the lure and appeal of this Sacred Land continues to entice outsiders to venture there.
This relatively new theory challenges the mainstream idea that the mankind (and/or the caucasion, aryan, white races) originated in the Mesopotamian Valley. There are indeed many evidences, facts and ancient writings that originate mankind's beginnings from the two Arctic regions. This book takes us one step farther... Eden was at the North Pole?! Sounds crazy, but such ideas are also embedded in ancient Jewish writings.
