A cultura da Ilha de Malta, permeada pelos costumes, crenças e histórias vindas da África, somada aos fascínios da herança mediterrânea, maravilharam o jovem John do Mato, que até então havia tido contato apenas com a cultura do norte da Europa, região onde nasceu. Mais tarde, após muitos anos, com sua vinda ao Brasil, a influência cultural africana e as marcas históricas da escravidão dos negros novamente surgiram diante de seus olhos, e daí foram direto para o papel por meio de seus manuscritos. A Concubina do Guru e outros contos é uma coletânea de textos que reflete essa cultura africana e a herança da escravidão, mas de uma maneira ímpar, por meio de histórias que trazem decepções amorosas, traições entre amantes, superação de traumas emocionais; o amor e a arte como formas de superação do despotismo e da histeria; personagens inconformados e rebeldes; o confronto entre o bem e o mal, mostrando o caráter praticamente insuperável das diferenças sociais e culturais; superação de dramas pessoais e manifestações do mal por meio da literatura e da poesia; e até mesmo discussões teológicas e filosóficas acerca da religiosidade contemporânea. A leitura deste livro será um mergulho sem igual num mundo de fantasia, inspirado na nossa realidade.

The companion volume to The Earth Chronicles series that reveals the identity of mankind’s ancient gods • Explains why these “gods” from Nibiru, the Anunnaki, genetically engineered Homo sapiens, gave Earthlings civilization, and promised to return • 30,000 sold in hardcover Zecharia Sitchin’s bestselling series The Earth Chronicles provided humanity’s side of the story concerning our origins at the hands of the Anunnaki, “those who from heaven to earth came.” In The Lost Book of Enki we now view this saga from the perspective of Lord Enki, an Anunnaki leader revered in antiquity as a god, who tells the story of these extraterrestrials’ arrival on Earth from the planet Nibiru. In his previous works Sitchin compiled the complete story of the Anunnaki’s impact on human civilization from fragments scattered throughout Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite, and Hebrew sources. Missing from these accounts, however, was the perspective of the Anunnaki themselves. What was life like on their own planet? What motives propelled them to settle on Earth--and what drove them from their new home? Convinced of the existence of a lost book that held the answers to these questions, the author began his search for evidence. Through exhaustive research of primary sources, he has here re-created tales as the memoirs of Enki, the leader of these first “astronauts.” What takes shape is the story of a world of mounting tensions, deep rivalries, and sophisticated scientific knowledge that is only today being confirmed. An epic tale of gods and men unfolds, challenging every assumption we hold about our past and our future.

In the Treatise on the Reintegration of Beings, Martinez de Pasqually, the author, reveals the knowledge hidden in the OLD TESTAMENT for the initiate "Elus Coëns" of his time and those of the Traditional Martinist Orders of today. He focuses on what happened to the angels and Adam when they fell. Then he tells human beings what they need to do to regain their original status as Men-God, to become Adam again. As never before, he presents to the readers the different visible and invisible universe regions. They are the divine Immensity, the super celestial Immensity, the celestial Immensity, and the earth. Martinez exposes the interactions between the spirits residing in the different universe regions, including hell and its inhabitants. The content of the Treaty on the Reintegration of Beings stops just before the event of Christ." What should the human being do to regain his original status as Adam, the Man-God? So that he can sit again on the throne, God entitled him. Martinez de Pasqually answers this question in the "Treatise on the Reintegration of Being ".

This book examines the historical context of the earliest Christian martyrs, and anchors their grisly and often wilful self-sacrifice to the everyday life and outlook of the cities of the Roman empire. Professor Bowersock begins by investigating both the time and the region in which martyrdom, as we know it, came into being. He also offers comparisons of the Graeco-Roman background with the martyrology of Jews and Muslims. A study of official protocols illuminates the bureaucratic institutions of the Roman state as they applied to the first martyrs; and the martyrdoms themselves are seen within the context of urban life (and public spectacle) in the great imperial cities. By considering martyrdom in relation to suicide, the author is also able to demonstrate the peculiarly Roman character of Christian self-sacrifice in relation to other forms of deadly resistance to authority.

The first systematic attempt to reconstruct from original manuscript sources and early printed books the medieval doctrines relating to the just war, the holy war and the crusade. Despite the frequency of wars and armed conflicts throughout the course of western history, no comprehensive survey has previously been made of the justifications of warfare that were elaborated by Roman lawyers, canon lawyers and theologians in the twelfth and thirteenth century universities. After a brief survey of theories of the just war in antiquity, with emphasis on Cicero and Augustine, and of thought on early medieval warfare, the central chapters are devoted to scholastics such as Pope Innocent IV, Hostiensis and Thomas Aquinas. Professor Russell attempts to correlate theories of the just war with political and intellectual development in the Middle Ages. His conclusion evaluates the just war in the light of late medieval and early modern statecraft and poses questions about its compatibility with Christian ethics and its validity within international law.
