Love Life Of The Ancient Greeks
Free Download Love Life Of The Ancient Greeks By Sofia A. Souli
1997 | 89 Pages | ISBN: 9605402246 | PDF | 25 MB
Eros is a winged god with rosy cheeks and a bow in one hand and Aphrodite the goddess of beauty who rose from the waters of the sea. All around them are satyrs, maenads, rascally elves who dance frenzied dances around a maypole led by Pan. Somewhat like this - it's true - was the ancient understanding of love, as it's presented in a plethora of archaeological finds. Leave yourself free to discover, without taboos and prejudices, through the pages of this book everything about the love life of the ancient Greeks, people who lived in a society with very different beliefs from our own, and allow yourselves to enjoy the greatness of sex and virtue as they understood it!

Pyrrhonism How the Ancient Greeks Reinvented Buddhism
Free Download Pyrrhonism: How the Ancient Greeks Reinvented Buddhism (Studies in Comparative Philosophy and Religion) by Adrian Kuzminski
English | June 19, 2008 | ISBN: 0739125060, 0739125079 | True EPUB/PDF | 170 pages | 1.66/0.8 MB
Pyrrhonism is commonly confused with scepticism in Western philosophy. Unlike sceptics, who believe there are no true beliefs, Pyrrhonists suspend judgment about all beliefs, including the belief that there are no true beliefs. Pyrrhonism was developed by a line of ancient Greek philosophers, from its founder Pyrrho of Elis in the fourth century BCE through Sextus Empiricus in the second century CE. Pyrrhonists offer no view, theory, or knowledge about the world, but recommend instead a practice, a distinct way of life, designed to suspend beliefs and ease suffering.

Anticimenon On the Unity of the Faith and the Controversies with the Greeks
Free Download Anticimenon: On the Unity of the Faith and the Controversies with the Greeks By Anselm of Havelberg; Carol Neel; Ambrose Criste
2010 | 232 Pages | ISBN: 0879071060 | EPUB | 1 MB
The Anticimenon of Anselm of Havelberg is both the outstanding medieval work on ecumenical dialogue with the Orthodox and one of the period's most important explorations of the theology of history. This text's author was a bishop on Christianity's eastern frontier and companion to Norbert of Xanten, saint-founder of the Order of Pramontra. Anselm grounded both his zeal for the union of the churches and his Vision of the Holy Spirit's role in secular events in the renewal and purification advocated by the twelfth-century reformation. The present volume, the first English translation of Anselm's Anticimenon, sets his work in the context of the early Premonstratensian (Norbertine) thought integral to the reform movement of his time. It renders Anselm's powerful voice audible to a modern English-speaking readership yearning, with him, for unity in the Church and understanding of the Holy Spirit's agency in human experience.Ambrose Criste, OPraem, received his licentiate from the Gregorian University in Rome and is a member of St. Michal's Abbey in Orange County, California.Carol Neel is professor of history at Colorado College and has published several translations and commentaries on medieval spiritual texts.
