Lets Learn Tasblish Ruveis Tasblishon: An introduction to the Blishno Fitan dialect of the Tasblish conlang created by Pearson Moore
Let's Learn Tasblish Ruveis Tasblishon An Introduction to the Blishno Fitan Dialect of the Tasblish Conlang Developed by Pearson Moore The Clan is the all. Welcome to the Tasfit culture of Central Europe, 43,000 BCE. In Ruveis Tasblishon you will learn a language in which the ideas 'I' and 'you' do not exist. The clan is the all. Proximity to the hearth--the Glitfal Bestan--determines the personal and social standing of everyone in the world. Immersing yourself in an ancient Neandertal society, you will learn new ways of thinking about yourself, your companions, and the world around you. The Tasblish language is unlike any tongue you have ever spoken or even heard about. Everyone refers to herself in the third person, for there are no first person ('I') or second person ('you') forms in the grammar, and no one in any Tasfit clan or tribe understands the concept of 'I' or 'you'. The clan is the beginning, the end, and the focus of every thought and breath. In Ruveis Tasblishon you will discover new ways of considering personal, social, and geographic proximity to friends, acquaintances, and strangers. Nouns and verbs are not declined and conjugated as in most European languages. Rather, most words are proxigated--that is, they are modified according to the emotional, cultural, and physical proximity of the people or ideas they represent to the Glitfal Bestan, the Clan Hearth. Conlangers will find in these pages radical ways of thinking about the nature of language and its structure. The proxigation-based grammar allows nuanced and elegant communication about emotions and feelings, and establishes interpersonal relationship as the supreme determinant of linguistic meaning. Tasblish is central to the Tasfit Neandertal culture developed in Fire Wolf and Scimitar and in the science fiction world of Deneb, Pearson Moore's epic tale of culture clash set in multiple timelines from 43,000 BCE to 3000 AD. Few modern novels can claim such a fascinating and multi-dimensional backdrop, including a full 7800-word conlang, diverse prehistoric cultures spanning an entire continent, and social interaction unlike anything described in scientific or fictional literature. Lose yourself in a compelling, fascinating, utterly unique world. Ruveis Tasblishon Let's Learn Tasblish contains tasteful nude drawings and photographs, including original illustrations by the author as well as 19th century and early 20th century works.

Reviews "Myeerah...is expertly placed to interact with several historical personages and provides an engaging account of early Canadian history...Her...compelling story and character arc stand at the heart of the novel...Exquisite historical detail...Excellent novel." -J. A. Beard, Good Book Alert "I read Cartier's Ring cover to cover...-right through the night, in fact-for the simple reason that I couldn't put it down. Pearson Moore has given us lasting love, bloody war and a clash of cultures set on the high seas... and in the incomprehensibly vast wilderness of 17th century Canada...and leaves his readers dying to know what happens next...Cartier's Ring is a superbly researched, marvelously written book, and I can't wait for the sequel." -Paula Cohen, bestselling author of Gramercy Park "Myeerah is the real heroine, a young girl...who's forced to grow up very quickly...I'm not ashamed to say that a few times I had a lump in my throat as I read. Moore has brought to life a period of history...I could almost feel...the camps and forests and ships. The battle of the characters became my battle, too. From the first page to the last, the story is gripping. A tale of love, of family, of honor and of power, it's fitting tribute to the birth of a nation." -Barbara Elsborg, bestselling author of Strangers She is healer, hunter, warrior. Her strength will inspire generations. Her courage will found a nation. Experience history as never before. See the story of North America through the eyes of the woman who lived and breathed it: Myeerah of Hawk Clan, Matriarch to a nation. About the Novel: "Only men have dreams such as this, not girls. Not the daughter of a slave." So begins an adventure that will span eight decades across two continents and dozens of historical figures. From swashbuckling pirates on the high seas to the slave traders of Mexico, to the genocidal wars of North America, Pearson Moore engages from the very first page, using a vibrant prose style that captivates the imagination, and the heart. Twelve years of intensive research went into building the rich historical background for Cartier's Ring, including dozens of trips to Qu bec, Montr al, Upstate New York, and Midland, Ontario. But it is the emotional depth of Myeerah's story that brings the novel to life. You will feel her pain as she is beaten and enslaved, touch her tear-streaked face as she witnesses the ritual torture and execution of her brother, share in her joy as she overcomes deprivation and starvation, and cheer when she vanquishes her enemies. Using rarely-deployed but highly effective narrative devices, Moore immerses you in a strange world that is attractive in its humanity and intriguing in its statements about our common heritage and destiny. This novel is unabashed in its proclamation of feminine strength, courage, and tenacity. It is a rich and powerful testament to the ideals that founded a nation, and the indefatigable will of the women and men who shared a common vision. Most of all, this is Pearson Moore's tribute to a country and a philosophy of life; his passion is evident on every page. Cartier's Ring is that rare creation that will change the way you think about the world, about your own country, and most of all, about what it means to be a vital contributor to family, culture, and country.

Containing 25 thought-provoking essays by the most heavily-cited authority on LOST, Pearson Moore's LOST Humanity, University Edition serves as a solid basis for discussion and analysis of the 21st century's most intellectually challenging television series. With six new chapters, two of them never before published, this volume represents the most complete distillation of Moore's ideas regarding this fascinating cinematic adventure. Vibrant prose and provocative concepts will keep you engaged through all 418 pages of Moore's masterwork. Moore believes the structure of LOST is undergirded by three "nonlinear" elements: Disorientation, Metadrama, and Chaos Theory. He penetrates the symbolic, literary, and metaphorical LOST universe with in-depth analysis that never lets go, keeping you immersed in the storytellers' world and delivering insightful appreciation of the showrunners' rubrics and art. There's no filler here. No interviews with actors or producers, no discussion of hairdos or affairs. No weird theories. Just solid, thoroughly-researched, piercing analysis by a thinker who digs deep beneath the surface. You may feel exhausted after a chapter. You may be shocked. You may become angry. But you will never be bored. The heart of the book begins with Chapter 13. It is here that Moore begins his compelling analysis of LOST's complicated structure. As he states in Chapter 17, "The Cork Stone," Moore does not feel LOST represents postmodern thinking. His views are sure to arouse controversy and will fuel many classroom debates. The core of Moore's argument is the concept of the Strange Attractor, an idea borrowed from chaos theory. It is here that Moore's analysis shines, allowing a depth of understanding never before achieved.

God is not gendered; why should our song and prayer invoke a masculine deity? In this book you will find more than 220 beloved hymns, mostly from the 19th and early 20th centuries, all of which have been updated to remove every occurrence of the words Lord, King, Father, Son, Brother, and so on. When necessary, hymns have been reworded to eliminate patriarchal assumptions or bias. Yet every hymn retains rhyme, meter, tempo, and theological intent identical to the original hymn. In addition, this book contains 23 all-new hymns created by Pearson Moore, some of which are drawn from his works of prehistoric fiction, Fire Wolf and Scimitar. All together, the hymnal contains more than 240 hymns, songs, and chants for every hour of the day, every season of the year. While most of the hymns are provided in English, a fair number are offered in French, Latin, Tasblish, and other languages such as Welsh, Spanish, and Inuktitut.
