As a young foreigner in Egypt, Joseph succeeded against overwhelming odds. Uprooted from his family in Canaan and sold as a slave in Egypt, he made the best of unpromising situations. Sold to Potiphar as a field hand, he worked diligently and soon became overseer of Potiphar's entire estate. Though innocent of any wrongdoing, Potiphar's wife accused him of attempted rape, and Potiphar threw him into a prison house.

Questo libro indaga la presenza di Dio nelle civiltà antiche. È una accurata ricerca delle impronte dell'Essere Divino sulle sabbie della storia più remota dell'umanità. Nell'uomo di tutte le epoche e civiltà si trovano prove dell'ispirazione dello Spirito Divino; tracce di Dio e di ispirazioni superiori sono presenti nei più remoti annali dell'umanità. Dalle prime iscrizioni dell'Antico Egitto al culto delle popolazioni semitiche, dai Misteri Greci alla regione di Socrate e Platone passando per Zoroastrismo fino agli scritti sacri del Buddhismo: tutto rivela la presenza di Dio.

Duemila anni di monoteismo ci hanno abituato a ritenere che Dio non possa essere se non unico, esclusivo, vero. Al contrario, il politeismo antico prevedeva la possibilità di far corrispondere fra loro dèi e dèe appartenenti a culture diverse (la greca Artemis alla romana Diana, l'egizia Isis alla greca Athena), ovvero di accogliere nel proprio pantheon divinità straniere. Questa disposizione all'apertura ha fatto sì che il mondo antico non abbia conosciuto quella violenza a carattere religioso che invece ha insanguinato, e spesso ancora insanguina, le culture monoteiste.

This small volume focuses on the major Greek gods and on some of the minor ones. Fully illustrated with pertinent details on each of the main gods and their functions. Excerpted from the writings of G.H. Bianchi and edited by David Christopher Lane.

The Egyptians were a visionary people. They had Seers, what they called "Peter" in Egyptian. What scholars refer to as myths are in reality prophesies and therefore can be referred to as scripture. One such prophesy has to do with the Egyptian god Osiris. The Greek historian Plutarch wrote about the death of Osiris beyond what the Egyptian texts do. In his account Osiris was the king of Egypt.

Ogni viaggiatore, al ritorno dai suoi viaggi, ha sentito il desiderio di riordinare le idee, Marco Polo per primo.

Syusy è una viaggiatrice non per caso con un sacco di informazioni e verità che potrebbero cambiare la storia come la conosciamo, Patrizio è un cinico ascoltatore che prova a seguirla nel suo viaggio mentale oltre che fisico.

It should have been a beautiful moment between a man and his dog. Philip Womack made a quip about Cerberus, the three-headed hell-hound, but for Una, the beloved lurcher, it was all Greek. Then she ran off after a squirrel. And Womack was left to wonder what else she didn’t know about the great civilisations of the past. The Greeks and the Romans laid the foundations of so much of what we read, listen to and watch today, from the baked pies of Game of Thrones to the Lotus-eaters of Love Island.
