The Serpent Said: La Serpiente dijo

The Serpent Said: La Serpiente dijo

Perry Oliver

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
In 38 vignettes of considerable formal simplicity, Perry Oliver shows us his refined sense of humor, which makes us smile and think. With the pretext of using the perspective of the Serpent in Genesis, and under the guise of a deceptive simplicity (aesthetic and narrative), Oliver circumvents religious considerations and instead proposes a critical irony of certain aspects of contemporary society, like personal relationships or mass consumption. Although written (or better said, drawn) at the end of the last century, it maintains its relevance. We have a singular work in the trajectory of the author, a recognized artist (sculptor and printmaker). Although he has some inedited texts, this is not his usual medium of artistic expression. This book combines and fuses with mastery three of his passions: drawing, words, and (above all) humor. This bilingual version, English and Spanish, with its very concise idiom of short phrases and wordplay, makes an ideal exercise for students in either of these languages.En 38 vi etas de gran sencillez formal, Perry Oliver nos muestras su fino humor, que nos har sonreir y pensar. Bajo la excusa de mostrarnos el punto de vista de la Serpiente del G nesis, y bajo la apariencia de una falsa simpleza (est tica y narrativa), Oliver no entra en asuntos religiosos sino que plantea una ir nica cr tica a algunos aspectos de la sociedad actual, como la relaci n de pareja o el consumo de masas. Aunque escrito (o mejor dicho, dibujado) a finales del pasado siglo, mantiene una total vigencia. Se trata de una obra muy singular en la trayectoria del autor, reconocido artista pl stico (escultor y grabador), que aunque posee algunas obras literarias in ditas, no es ste su campo habitual de expresi n art stica. En este libro se funden magistralmente tres de sus pasiones; el Dibujo, la Palabra y (sobre todo) el Humor. Esta versi n biling e, ingl s/Espa ol, con un lenguaje muy conciso, en frases cortas y algunos juegos de palabra, la hacen id nea como ejercicios de pr cticas para estudiantes de alguno de estos idiomas.

Touching the Face of God: The Narcissist & His Lovechild, the Enmeshed

Touching the Face of God: The Narcissist & His Lovechild, the Enmeshed

Perry Tkachuk

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
Touching the Face of God is an exploration of how humankind derived their Archetypes of Authority but then confused them as ideals by personifying them as if beings with authority. The author concludes that Narcissism was originally the fundamental design of human leadership, which formed enmeshed offspring, tribes and societies to succumb to his leadership unquestioned. Narcissism-whether from a parent, leader or God-emits an Electromagnetic-like-Pulse of energy with such force, it shuts down those around it, which then slowly and methodically wears them down, like being systematically mesmerized or hypnotized. Offspring and societies became the extended brain of their Patriarch. The upside was, this established language, ritual, customs, culture-and therefore ethnicity with a well-designed set of consistent patterns. But many of these patterns had a dysfunctional impact which formed either submissive or rebellious responses. Yet-rebellion has always been defined as the evil in man, instead of a protective response against the EMP of the Patriarch as head. Touching the Face of God explores how the unconscious Self feels the Double Binds of such a Top Down imposition of power: when you move towards compliance, you become enmeshed; when you rebel, you are blamed, then isolated and rejected. There's no win, but shame results, where some will act more than human to meet the demands or less than human because they're given up. Regardless, the Top Down pressures result in personality disorders and hugely dysfunctional relationships with each other and Self. But we will see that resolving the psycho-social Double Bind behind the notion of God resolves this dilemma by understanding what Touching the Face of God really means.

"The only time I put it down was when I fell asleep reading " ★★★★★ A demon lord, trapped for more than a thousand years, sends his servants to capture the Children of the Blessing because he believes they are the key to his escape. Hunted by demon spawn and the Grand Warlock, the Children of the Blessing grow to wish the gods had never blessed them. Renn, a farmer's son, dreams of a simple life. But when his family is attacked and his home destroyed, he must flee across the continent to Elder Island. There, he hopes to train with the Lore Masters and harness his burgeoning powers. Pursued by the ruthless Grand Warlock Khan Devin and his demonic minions, Renn's path is fraught with danger and betrayal. Avaris, the son of a high clan chief, is abandoned and left to die in the mountains by his insane father, who fears his blessed child. Rescued by an outcast necromancer, Avaris dreams of reuniting with his tribe and claiming his rightful place as High Clan Chief. But his hopes are shattered when his father insults Khan Devin, who retaliates by slaughtering most of Avaris's tribe and enslaving the survivors. The necromancer sacrifices herself to give Avaris a chance to escape. Now alone, Avaris embarks on a perilous quest to free his people and avenge his tribe. As Renn and Avaris navigate their treacherous paths, they must master their divine gifts and face unimaginable horrors. From battling demonic creatures to uncovering ancient secrets, their journey is a race against time to prevent the prophecy from plunging Lemuria into eternal darkness. Blessed by gods, pursued by evil-if they can't save their loved ones, how will Renn and Avaris save themselves, let alone the world? "The author does a phenomenal job in creating for the reader a magical world that is both suspenseful and compelling. I love a book that can seamlessly blend my reality with its world of fantasy and magic. Perry Morris's book, Children of the Blessing, does just that." --Peg Glover, Write-Escape.com If you love epic fantasy sagas filled with unforgettable characters, ancient prophecies, and a battle between good and evil, immerse yourself in Children of the Blessing. The adventure begins now. Children of the Blessing is the first book in the Lemurian Chronicles, an epic fantasy series perfect for fans of Robert Jordan, Brandon Sanderson, Brent Weeks and Raymond E. Feist.

praise for FISCHER BLACK AND THE REVOLUTIONARY IDEA OF FINANCE "The story of Fischer Black. . . . is remarkable both because of the creativity of the man and because of the revolution he brought to Wall Street. . . . Mehrling's book is fascinating." ?FINANCIAL TIMES "A fascinating history of things we take for granted in our everyday financial lives." ?THE NEW YORK TIMES "Mehrling's book is essential reading for anyone interested in the development of modern finance or the life of an idiosyncratic creative genius." ?PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "Fischer Black was more than a vital force in the development of finance theory. He was also a character. Perry Mehrling has captured both sides of the picture: the evolution of thinking about the pricing of risk and time, as well as the thinkers, especially this fascinating eccentric, who worked it out." ?ROBERT M. SOWLO, Nobel laureate and Institute Professor of Economics, Emeritus, Massachusetts Institute of Technology "Although I worked closely with Fischer for nine years at Goldman Sachs and clearly recognized both his genius and the breadth and originality of his ideas, until I read this book, I had only the vaguest grasp of the source of his inspiration and no understanding at all of the source of his many idiosyncrasies." ?BOB LITTERMAN, Partner, Kepos Capital "Perry Mehrling has done a remarkable job of tracing the intellectual and personal development of one of the most original and complex thinkers of our generation. Fischer Black deserved it: a charming and brilliant book about a charming and brilliant man." ?ROBERT E. LUCAS JR., Nobel laureate and Professor of Economics, The University of Chicago
