This story takes place in San Sebastian de Hidalgo, a Mexican village with a name longer than its main street. It is a story of death and flowers, love, good fun, pride and poverty, all of it set to music in a country that is more grand opera than a nation.

The oracle of Delphi, the sacred abode of the raving prophetess, the Pythia, was for centuries one of the most celebrated and influential religious centers in the ancient Greek world. There, the magnificent temple of Apollo was not only gilded in riches of gold and bronze but also in the jewels of everlasting wisdom: the Delphic Admonitions. These were brief "catchphrases" conveying moral, philosophical and even practical teachings, inscribed on pillars around the temple. They were attributed to the Seven Sages of antiquity, a group of philosophers who laid the cornerstone in the edifice of western culture and intellect. This work contains a selection of 120 of the most principle Delphic Admonitions translated in English and each one is presented with an accompanying historical and philological commentary so that the reader may understand them both in the context of the ancient world as well as in that of their application to modern-day life. Complete with a detailed introduction exploring the many mysteries surrounding Delphi's long and fascinating history, an appendix containing the Delphic Admonitions in the original ancient Greek and numerous references to classical Greek and Roman literature, "Navel of the Earth" is, in effect, an anthology of history, philosophy and theology as well as a useful handbook for those wishing to embark on the mysterious and rewarding journey of rediscovering the sublime wisdom of antiquity.

In this amusing and brilliantly conceived book, Michael Sims introduces you to your body. Moving from head to toe, Sims blends cultural history with evolutionary theory to produce a wonderfully original narrative in which he analyzes the visible parts of the body. In this fascinating brew of science and storytelling, readers encounter not only accessible explanations of the mechanics of their anatomy, but also the layers of mythology, religious lore, history, Darwinian theory, and popular culture that have helped to shape our understanding of any given body part. A titillating and unique book, Adam’s Navel is learned and entertaining, a marvelous lens through which to study the form we all inhabit—but may not really understand.

In order to conduct a well-grounded search for meaning, this book wants to renew the ancient attempt to seek wisdom in everyday life, training ourselves to modify our own perceptions of the world in as authentic a manner as possible. This path places analysis, philosophical practices and religion side by side as three ways of searching for meaning into a common coordinated field of action with a common background: we urge to go beyond the self to save the self through a wider and more all-embracing dimension of meaning. We think to recognize, as different articulations of the same thing, three interconnected but distinct practices: philosophycally-oriented biographical analysis - autobiographical and mythobiographical -, formative practices based on philosophy as a way of life, secular spiritual accompaniment. These essays collected in this volume should be read as partial approximations of the same content.
