Описание:
taQ'Lut Press presents "Spira Mirabilis: Fantastic Tales from the Marvelous Spiral", a lauded collection of eight thematically linked fantasy, horror, and science fiction short stories and novelettes, written by Ralph Sevush and illustrated by Susan Kaufman.
"Spira Mirabilis", Latin for "miraculous" or "marvelous" spiral, is the name given by mathematician Jakob Bernoulli to the logarithmic curve with a uniquely "miraculous" quality: though the size of the spiral increases, its shape remains unchanged by each successive curve. As a result, the Spira Mirabilis has evolved in nature, appearing in certain forms such as the arms of spiral galaxies.
According to the author, "myths arise in different contexts throughout human history. They expand and evolve, yet, like the Spira Mirabilis, they remain essentially the same. And this is likely so because WE remain essentially the same, give or take a millennium.
Violent, funny, poignant and romantic, in varying proportions, these tales are also about the act of telling the story, and the storyteller, too.
"... Sevush leads readers on an imaginative tour of pulp genres and popular mythology. Overall, these stories are grand, world-building genre pieces condensed into a few pages each, and Sevush displays great facility with the rhythm and lexicon of the various styles he assays. A rollicking, good-spirited ride..." - Kirkus Reviews
"These astonishing stories are as funny, lyrical and literary as they are original, big-hearted and human. It's as if some mad scientist has taken parts of Ray Bradbury, Neil Gaiman, Mickey Spillane, Ursula Le Guin and Edgar Allan Poe, and sewn them all together to create something magnificent and wholly original." -- David Lindsay-Abaire, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, librettist, lyricist and screenwriter (Rabbit Hole, Shrek the Musical)
"This remarkable collection highlights a voice that will remind you why you fell in love with science fiction in the first place. From the gritty characters to the landscapes they inhabit, Ralph Sevush is a true "world builder," calling on well-known tropes and upending them with his own clever imagination. One of my favorite pieces of genre fiction I've read this year... truly marvelous " -- Qui Nguyen, Playwright (Vietgone, She Fights Monsters), and Artistic Director of the off-Broadway theater company, Vampire Cowboys
"Masterfully careening from fantasy to horror to science fiction, this memorable collection boasts sly references from Gilgamesh to Superman, but like all great storytellers, his literary prowess is always in service to his ultimate quest: to illuminate the human heart." -- Doug Wright, Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, librettist and screenwriter (I Am My Own Wife, Grey Gardens, Little Mermaid)
"Ralph Sevush's terrifically entertaining tales live somewhere between the classic pulp fiction of SF's Golden Age and the 21st-century cutting edge of Gaiman and Gibson... smart, startling and memorable." -- David Auburn, Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and screenwriter (Proof, The Columnist)
"9/10 rating... That's some good stuff right there...not a bad story in the bunch and some of them] still resonate. Recommended." -- David L. Felts, SFReader.Com

There is a spiritual pecking order going up into the heavens and this book captures it beautifully. I am well aware of the world of the spiritual and the occult and hidden world of the spirits that TruthSeekah is writing about in this book, and believe me, there is this spirit world and all of mankind has always understood that. This is a great book that needed to be written and you should pay close attention while reading the contents of this work and think about what you're going to read in this book. Jordan Maxwell
Описание: "Experimental Investigation of the Spirit Manifestations" is an 1855 work by American chemist Robert Hare. In this volume, Hare deals with the subject of spiritualism, a religious movement based on the belief that spirits of the deceased exist and are able to communicate with living people. He explores in detail the evidence for the existence of spirits, looking at purported methods of communication, historical cases from around the world, intuitive evidence, and more. This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in spiritualism and the existence of an afterlife, and it is not to be missed by collectors of related literature. Robert Hare (1781 - 1858) was an early American chemist. Other notable works by this author include: "Chemical Apparatus and Manipulations" (1836), "Compendium of the Course of Chemical Instruction in the Medical Department of the University of Pennsylvania" (1840), and "Memoir on the Explosiveness of Niter" (1850). Contents include: "The Evidence of the Existence of a Deity", "Intuitive Evidence of the Existence of Spirits", "Corroborative Evidence of the Existence of Spirits", "Foreign Corroborative Evidence of the Existence of Spirits", "Communications from the Spirit World", "Of Spiritual Birth", "Convocation of Spirits", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
