Most daily experiences are predictable and humdrum. Occasiona…lly we have a deliciously or shockingly intense experience. Very occasionally we have a profound experience that leads us to change our life. Then there are marginal experiences so bizarre we have difficulty understanding what occurred. The Lantern In The Skull explores a selection of these unsettling yet intriguing experiences. A camera previously in perfect working order, which inexplicably won't photograph a fetish in an African village chief's basement, provides the first stop on Hugh Major's engaging survey. Using his own experiences as a springboard, he considers telepathy, psychic perceptions, psychedelic insights, artistic transports, near death experiences, and much else. Human consciousness is sufficiently elastic to accommodate all these experiences. Yet the nature of consciousness itself is a conundrum, and the evidence for marginal experiences remains contentious. Hugh Major provides a timely snapshot of current research into "marginal zones of the extraordinary". In precise, jargon-free language, he indicates the territory being explored and outlines major directions researchers are travelling. There are numerous captivating, and surprising, discoveries along the way.

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Three novellas, each telling a tale of love in troubled seventeenth and eighteenth century Europe.Friedrich Schelling, a philosopher lecturing in Germany's famed Jena University and a leading proponent of the new Romantic movement, has fallen… for his friend's wife. As Europe's cities fall to Napoleon's army, and a tragic death shatters Jena, Schelling battles his colleagues for Europe's intellectual future while wondering if he has lost his love before he has even won her.Margaret Lucas escapes the English Civil War by travelling to France in Queen Henrietta's entourage. There her heart is captured by an exiled royalist soldier, William Cavendish. Soon married, as Margaret Cavendish she now has the freedom to embrace her other great passions: women's equality, the new sciences, poetry, philosophy, high couture, and completing her feminist science fiction novel.Rene Descartes is nearing the end of his life. He has escaped his French detractors by accepting the position of philosopher-in-residence with Sweden's remarkable, foul-mouthed Queen Christina. But she reminds him of his long-deceased daughter, and he is all too aware sceptical courtiers are plotting for him to join her.Three true-life tales from an era when compelling personalities introduced ideas now integral to the modern world, each written with polished verve, wry humour, and lit within by incandescent longing.
