Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Discover the oldest story ever told-now in a powerful new translation that brings ancient Mesopotamia to vivid life.The Epic of Gilgamesh is humanity's first great work of literature, composed more than 4,000 years ago-centuries before Homer, before the Bible, before any written story you know. This is the tale that established the hero's journey, the quest for immortality, and the profound reckoning with what it means to be human and mortal.Gilgamesh is the mighty King of Uruk: two-thirds god, one-third man, blessed with superhuman strength and cursed with a restless heart. He is a tyrant whose arrogance knows no bounds-until the gods create Enkidu, a wild man born in the wilderness, to challenge him. Their legendary clash becomes an unbreakable friendship, and together they set out to achieve immortal fame by slaying Humbaba, the terrifying guardian of the sacred Cedar Forest.But when the gods demand a terrible price for their defiance, Gilgamesh loses the one person he has ever loved. Devastated and consumed by the fear of his own death, he abandons his throne and embarks on a desperate quest to find Utnapishtim, the sole survivor of the Great Flood, who holds the secret of eternal life.Why read The Epic of Gilgamesh today Because the questions Gilgamesh asks are eternal: What gives life meaning when death is inevitable How do we cope with the loss of those we love What legacy will outlast us This is the foundation upon which nearly all subsequent heroic literature rests-from Achilles to Odysseus, from King Arthur to Frodo Baggins. Every hero's journey begins here, in the dusty streets of ancient Uruk, with a king who sought to conquer death and learned instead what it means to be truly human.The Epic of Gilgamesh is more than an ancient artifact. It is a living testament to the enduring human struggle against chaos, mortality, and the inexorable passage of time. It is the story of friendship, grief, hubris, and the search for meaning-themes as relevant today as they were 4,000 years ago.Experience the epic that started it all.Based on the Standard Babylonian Version attributed to the ancient scribe Sîn-leqi-unninni (c. 13th-10th century BC). Perfect for readers of mythology, ancient history, classic literature, and anyone seeking to understand the foundations of storytelling itself. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Last Grandmaster: Legend of Hua' is a epic tale of one man's estraordinary struggle and ultimate triumph, and reveals to modern readers for the first time, an ancient, mystical path to success and long life. It chronicles the achievements of Grandmaster Sin Kwang The¿, an extraordinary man, whose exceptional discipline and superb martial arts expertise enabled him to become the youngest Grandmaster in history. Schooled in the East in the ancient Shaolin martial arts by the legendary Shaolin Grandmaster E, and schooled in the West by two of Hollywood's most famous screenwriters, Sid Field and Robert Mckee, Grandmaser Sin Kwang The¿ is uniquely able to take you on a journey through his eventful life and beyond, into the mystical realm of ancient legend to share powerful life-enhancing techniques never before available to the West. 'The Last Grandmaster' artfully weaves the legendary stories of historic martial arts heroes with the Grandmaster's own life story, set against riveting events in the history of modern China. The Grandmaster also introduces a profound spiritual element into his exciting tale by revealing the existence of his own spiritual guardian, the legendary martial arts warrior, Lady Hua, who first appeared to him in his dreams as a boy. Lady Hua has served as his spiritual guardian throughout his entire life and unfailingly led him through tragedy and pitfalls on his path to greatness. With her guidance, Sin The¿ was able to persevere through tragedies that might have crushed a lesser man, saved by his unwavering commitment to a lifelong regimen of superhumanly-grueling martial arts training that few others could have survived. The book also reveals the workings of the 720 pressure points in our bodies that mysteriously effect our health and well-being, which, when harnessed, can make you stronger, faster, smarter, healthier, longer lived, and enable you to become wealthier and more successful than you ever dreamed possible. Best of all, at the end of the book, Grandmaster Sin Kwang The¿ bestows the ancient Nei Kung technique of 'Eternal Youth' onto his faithful readers, which, when combined with a special, enhanced 'Green Smoothie' elixir he has developed just for you, can extend your life expectancy by decades! BOOK ONE: This book, the first in a three volume set, follows the Grandmaster from his infancy during the brutal WWII Japanese invasion and occupation of Indonesia through to the later years of civil unrest and rioting that tragically took the lives of two of his dearest loved ones, culminating in his journey to America to begin anew. BOOKS TWO & THREE: The two sequels to follow will chronicle his rise in America to become the founder and respected leader of the largest martial arts organization in the world outside of China, and his ultimate success as an Executive Producer in Hollywood of the soon-to-be a major motion picture, the martial arts action feature, 'Defenders of the Gao.' His message to you all is: 'Only by daring to dream can your dream become reality.'. Ghobad, Sean (illustrator).…
