What is power, and what is the crowd? How do the two relate to each other? Crowds and Power is a striking and unclassifiable study of how human beings behave in groups and how collective forces shape history. Rejecting conventional sociology, 1981 Nobel Prize in Literature laureate Elias Canetti creates a unique framework that draws on anthropology, mythology, psychology, history, psychoanalysis and literature to explain why crowds form, how they act and what makes them so powerful. Drawing on his experiences in Vienna in the 1930s and a range of material spanning centuries and every continent, Canetti offers insights into the psychology of the crowd, the variety of religious experience, the paranoia of rulers and the pathology of power. A visionary and provocative book, Crowds and Power is a major work illuminating the forces driving mass movements and offers one of the most profound and startling portraits of the human condition ever written.

We all want to make sense of lifethe good, the painful, the miraculous. Who are we? Why are we here? What should we do with our lives? How do we hold on to hope, in a world that is both beautiful and broken? Through eight lyrical and reflective essays, one of todays most thoughtful spiritual writers Steven Garber explores the idea of the "proximate"a word from the Latin "proximatus,"to draw near. Garber invites us to draw near to the deepest realities of life and to see with greater clarity and compassionrecognizing what is true, right, and beautiful in the world, even as we see the suffering all around us. Hints of Hope probes what it means to be human; to wrestle with the contradictions we all face in our marriages, in our workplaces, in our friendships and vocations. We all experience beauty and brokenness, wonder and despair, joy and sorrow. We live with disappointment and grief and pain . . . wanting more, expecting more, but never being completely fulfilled. Paradoxically, as we make peace with the proximate, our vision is expanded to see more clearly the glimmers of beauty and grace that thread their way through our lives. Garber suggests that those hints of hope are enough in this frail world of ours, "a world stretched taut between what is and what someday will be."Written in memoir form, Hints of Hope weaves together decades of Garbers travels, teaching, and personal musings to offer a tapestry of wisdom on vocation, culture, faith, and hope. Readers of Wendell Berry, Parker Palmer, Marilyn McEntyre, Philip Yancey, and Frederick Buechner will find a rich, soul-nourishing feast within these pages.

"Teogonía" es una de las fuentes más importantes de la mitología griega y relata la genealogía de los dioses, su origen y la formación del universo. La obra comienza con un himno a las Musas, seguido de la narracion de la creacion del cosmos desde el Caos primigenio hasta la consolidacion del poder de Zeus como rey de los dioses.Hesiodo describe el nacimiento de diversas deidades y criaturas mitologicas, como Gea (la Tierra), Urano (el Cielo), los Titanes, los Ciclopes y los Hecatonquiros. Tambien relata la lucha entre los Titanes y Zeus, conocida como la Titanomaquia, asi como la historia de Prometeo y la creacion de Pandora, el primer ser humano femenino.Esta obra fue fundamental para la religion y la literatura griega, pues organizo y estructuro los mitos dispersos en una narracion coherente. Ademas, influyo en la poesia y la filosofia posteriores, estableciendo un modelo sobre la cosmogonia que persistio en la tradicion grecorromana.
