Hardback. Condizione: Good. Intensive Latin: First Year & Review is an introductory textbook offering a concentrated course of study, a comprehensive review for students at the second level, or an accompanying manual for advanced students reading Latin literature. This text is particularly useful for students at the second level who often have an imperfect knowledge of Latin grammar and inflectional paradigms, offering a reasoned and concise presentation of the fundamental principles of the Latin language. A unique feature of this textbook is the hypercard tutorial computer program, Vade Mecum, which includes flash cards for vocabulary and principal parts. Intensive Latin: First Year & Review also contains drills on inflection, with options upon demand for answers, translations, lexical entries, and relevant paradigms. The grammar is organized with the most fundamental and frequent items presented earliest to afford greater opportunity for practice and familiarity, with subsequent items arranged in order of decreasing vitality or survivability in the evolution of the language. The clear and precise format allows customization for particular courses, allowing teachers to target special problems without impeding the progress in reading Latin literature. In addition to the paradigms presented in each of the eleven lessons, there is a reference compendium of paradigms in the appendix, as well as the answers for all the drills on inflection, grammar, and translation. The book contains eleven lessons: Nominative and Accusative; Gender, Adjectives, Present Conjugation; Genitive and Subjunctive; Passive, Purpose Clauses, Indirect Questions; Ablative and Dative; Imperfect, Present Perfect, Past Perfect; Relative-Interrogative Pronouns, Vocative; Future, Future Perfect; Ablative Absolute, Imperative; Comparatives, Superlatives; and Gerund, Gerundive, Supine. It also provides a Summary Review of Latin Paradigms, the Latin Answers, a Glossary, the Glossary for Note the Pattern Exercises, an Index, and a List of Paradigms. Vade Mecum Tutorial Files Electronic flashcards are available for the Macintosh platform only. They were created by the author on HyperCard software, which comes with Macintosh computers. We assumed there was an IBM version when we inserted the flyer in the books, but that is unfortunately not the case. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In the ancient world, men and women joined cults known as Mysteries to unite with the deities of the otherworld and achieve eternal life. The most important of the Mysteries existed for two millennia at the village of Eleusis. Its deities were Demeter and Persephone, interchangeable in their roles as mother and daughter. The initiations and other rituals of this goddess-based cult were a profound secret: divulging information was punishable by death. For centuries, scholars have probed the secrets of the Eleusinian Mysteries and kykeon, its sacramental Eucharist a sacred drink containing psychoactive chemicals similar to those in LSD. Their discoveries have been buried in the arcane language of alchemy, the occult sciences, and secret societies. Here, in prose accessible to all readers, Carl Ruck unravels the Mysteries, revealing the awesome powers of the goddesses, as well as the pagan underpinnings of Western culture. …

Paperback. Condizione: New. ENTHEOGENS, MYTH AND HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS is a much needed accessible exploration into the role of psychoactive sacraments - entheogens - in religion, mythology, and history, and also includes most treatments of the subject focus on modern scientific research, psychotherapy, are auto-bibliographic accounts, or are agenda-driven or otherwise naive and myopic. A great mystery of altered states of consciousness and species development is expanding with new archeological and anthropological discoveries. Religious story telling (myth) is a timeless journey. Surprisingly it's not about truth. It's about finding one's self in the midst of the discovery of the "Other." It is the story of what is separate and unknown that creates self-consciousness. Our entire life consists ultimately in the discovery of the "Other," which gives meaning to the discovery of the self. The arts and language are the fossil remnants scattered on our path. ENTHEOGENS, MYTH AND HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS discusses the influence of psychoactive substances on consciousness, human evolution and mystical experiences.It explores how religion, mythology, art and culture stem from entheogenic consciousness and why it's important to us today. "Entheogens, or psychoactive sacraments, have a long, storied history that has played an essential role in the evolution of consciousness, mythology, culture, religion, art - and even history and politics. ENTHEOGENS, MYTH AND HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS outlines this suppressed - yet seminal - undercurrent of history, giving examples of the role of entheogens from the primal shamanic religions through, the historical religions, esoteric mystical traditions including the Mystery Religions, alchemy and Freemasonry, and into contemporary expressions. Authors Ruck and Hoffman draw upon decades of research and personal experience in discussing the best documented examples of historically important entheogenic evidences, various ongoing threads of research and speculation to muse upon the 'meaning' of it all." Our hominid ancestors experienced a spiritual wakening at the very dawn of consciousness that set them apart from the other creatures of our planet. It was a journey to another realm induced by a special food that belonged to the gods.This was a plant that was animate with the spirit of deity. It was an entheogen. It was the visionary vehicle for the trip of the first shaman. The story was told over and over again until it achieved the perfect form of a myth. The realm was imagined as a topographical place, the outer limit of the cosmos, the fiery empyrean, or its geocentric opposite, our own planet Gaia. Myths multiplied over time, but they always preserved this primordial truth. These myths provide a road map, a scenario, if you can read them, for whoever today wants to follow. However, it is not an easy journey, and it is also fraught with many dangers, of getting lost, of finding no return. Access to the entheogens is now largely prohibited or stric. …
