Diatraecus: Tether Trilogy, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 954min
Intellectual cyberpunk without the physical wiring. Diatraecus is the first book of the Tether trilogy, dealing with a fractal-attributed yet fully realized and resolved narrative.Diatraecus is about self-assertion of identity as well as the values of integrity, devotion, loyalty, betrayal, and love mixed with the underlying forces of agenda, truth, and perspective. The novel combines multiple fictional and nonfictional genres into what some now call "transhumanism".This sci-fi/fantasy (cyberpunk) novel might best be described as Isaac Asimov meets J.R.R. Tolkien meets C.S. Lewis meets Ayn Rand meets William Gibson on steroids. It comprises multiple sub-narratives folded into a matrixed super-narrative, with plots, actions, characters, and agendas threaded throughout.Or, in a word, Diatraecus is simply "transcendent". ungekürzt.

Beyond Good and Evil , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 447min
Friedrich Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil, first published in 1886, presents a scathing critique of traditional morality and attacks previous philosophers for their blind acceptance of Christian ideals of virtue. As an alternative to what he viewed as the illogical and irrelevant philosophy of the nineteenth century, Nietzsche argues for the importance of imagination, self-assertion, danger, and originality for genuine philosophy. He furthermore denies the existence of a universal system of morality and instead offers a framework in which social roles and power dynamics dictate what is appropriate. A culmination of Nietzsche's mature philosophy, Beyond Good and Evil is a classic of moral thought and one of the foundations of existentialism. This edition is the translation by Helen Zimmern. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Crossley. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/tant/001894/bk_tant_001894_sample.mp3.

The Oxford Handbook of Contemporary Ballet (eBook, ePUB)
In distinction to many extant histories of ballet, The Oxford Handbook of Contemporary Ballet prioritizes connections between ballet communities as it interweaves chapters by scholars, critics, choreographers, and working professional dancers. The book looks at the many ways ballet functions as a global practice in the 21st century, providing new perspectives on ballet's past, present, and future. As an effort to dismantle the linearity of academic canons, the fifty-three chapters within provide multiple entry points for readers to engage in balletic discourse. With an emphasis on composition and process alongside dances created, and the assertion that contemporary ballet is a definitive era, the book carves out space for critical inquiry. Many of the chapters consider whether or not ballet can reconcile its past and actually become present, while others see ballet as flexible and willing to be remolded at the hands of those with tools to do so.- Shop: buecher

Why the Bible? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 58min
The Bible claims to be a book that records the words and thoughts of God himself. That is a big claim. If that claim is true, it certainly explains why so many enthusiastically consume its stories, religiously memorize its verses, and passionately proclaim its message. But if that assertion is not true, then scores of people have been profoundly misled, and perhaps should begin looking for divine wisdom elsewhere. In Why the Bible? Mike Fabarez explores the claim that the Bible is God's communication to mankind, and seeks to concisely answer the question of why millions of people through the centuries have put so much stock in this ancient book. Dr. Fabarez then goes on to provide practical direction for those who say they embrace the Bible's divine origins. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alan Sisto.

Songs of Kabir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 144min
The poet Kabîr is one of the most interesting personalities in the history of Indian mysticism. Born in or near Benares of Mohammedan parents and probably about the year 1440, be became in early life a disciple of the celebrated Hindu ascetic Râmânanda. Râmânanda had brought to Northern India the religious revival that Râmânuja, the great 12th-century reformer of Brâhmanism, had initiated in the South. This revival was in part a reaction against the increasing formalism of the orthodox cult, in part an assertion of the demands of the heart as against the intense intellectualism of the Vedânta philosophy, the exaggerated monism that that philosophy proclaimed. It took in Râmânuja's preaching the form of an ardent personal devotion to the God Vishnu, as representing the personal aspect of the divine nature: that mystical "religion of love" that everywhere makes its appearance at a certain level of spiritual culture. ungekürzt.

Appropriation - What's Appropriation?: Studies in World Art, Book 110 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 12min
As a number of recent exhibitions have shown, there is a growing fashion for what is called appropriation in art. To you and me, what this means is slavish copying - no ifs and buts, apologies replaced by the paradoxical assertion that this is a thoroughly original, impeccably avant-garde thing to do. Examples were a recent show at the Saatchi Gallery, entitled "Post Pop: East Meets West"; and "Sturtevant: Double Trouble", on view till late February at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. "Post Pop" was rife with things of this sort. For example, there were a number of versions, in different color ways, of Marcel Duchamp’s famous urinal (itself an appropriation of a sort). An upside-down copy by Glenn Brown of a Fragonard in the Wallace Collection. A Double Elvis (After Warhol) by a Belorussian artist called George Pusenkoff. ungekürzt. Language: English.
