The Ancient and Honorable Order of E Clampus Vitus is a fraternal society established in California during the Gold Rush. Dormant by the early 20th century, it was revived in 1930 as the New Dispensation of E Clampus Vitus. From 1934 to the centennial of the Gold Rush in 1949, six volumes of New Dispensation lore were written to announce and explain E Clampus Vitus. This anthology brings these six volumes together for the first time in celebration of the 75th anniversary of the publication of the first volume in the series. Volumes included are The Enigmatical Book of Vitus, The Curious Book of Clampus or Gumshaniana, My Darling's ECV: The Esoteric Book of E, Ye Preposterous Booke of Brasse, Credo Quia Absurdum and Fool's Gold. For Clampers, this anthology is essential for a more complete understanding of their society. For non-Clampers, this anthology provides a new perspective on the Gold Rush and the celebration of its traditions by E Clampus Vitus today.

Today it is often said that we live in a 'rape culture'. Panicked headlines tell us that rape is on the increase and that the police are failing to deal with it. Our courts are said to be incapable of delivering justice in rape cases, with the rate of convictions remaining consistently low. Sexism and misogyny in wider society have created a culture in which rape is pervasive, under-reported and often ignored by an uncaring public. But these claims are built on myths and misunderstandings. This book argues that the belief in a 'rape culture' is seriously distorting our discussion of sexual violence. It explains how the laws around rape have expanded significantly in recent decades, giving the state a far greater say in the most intimate areas of our lives. The drive to prosecute more and more people has damaging implications for our legal rights and basic freedoms - and our ability to live intimately with one another. If we are to have a serious discussion about rape, it's time to dispel the dangerous myth of rape culture.

An insider view of one of the bloodiest conquest of the world.5000 BCE:Indians built first planned cities on earth and built homes for 80000 people in Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. India was numero uno in urban planning, sophisticated drainage systems, advanced supply systems, baked brick houses, great baths and granaries and innovative techniques and metallurgy . 500 CE:India was basking through the golden period making stupendous progress in Science, astronomy, Literature and architecture with whole world looking up to India .1200 CE :India was reduced to a vassal state and became a source for never ending supply of slaves and wealth, reducing the Hindu population by 80 million at one count. What had gone wrong in these five or six centuries? What mistakes Indians have committed to deserve this inhuman degradation? Was anything wrong in their religious and cultural viewpoint that made Hindus lose repeatedly?Why could not they think of making something like Great Wall of China to keep the invasions at bay despite having all the money and skills?Why Turks were so interested in India? Why was there a mad scramble among them to invade India?What India had or didn't have which attracted them in hordes?Why did they burn whole cities and wiped out whole population even after winning?Because for Hindus, it was a game while for Turks, it was a war, a bloody war.To be won at any cost. This is also the story of the brave warriors who resisted them heroically. Raja Dahir. Lalitaditya. Pulakeshin. Nayaki Devi. Jaipal. Suhel Dev. Prithvi RajAnd the list goes on.

(Applause Books). There has been a great change in the last twenty years to actor auditions, which now require the demonstration of enormous flexibility. The actor is often expected to show more range than ever before, and often several shorter audition speeches are asked for instead of one or two longer ones. To stay at the top of his or her game, the Shakespearean actor needs more knowledge of what makes the play tick, especially since the early plays demand a different style from the later ones. Each genre (comedy, history, tragedy) has different requirements. No current monologue book deals directly with the bulk of these concerns. One More unto the Speech, Dear Friends now fills that gap. This three volume set will help actors discover the extra details of humanity that the original folio texts automatically offer. Of Shakespeare's 37 plays, only Pericles is not included. In the trilogy of books there are over 900 separate audition possibilities. This represents about 600 more monologues than are available in any other series. There are four parts to each speech: * A background giving context and approximate timing; * A modern text version; * The original folio version; * Commentary to explain the differences between the two texts including full discussion of the devices peculiar to that speech's genre, the age and gender of the character, and more.

Karl Kerényi presents here a beautiful, authoritative study of the great god Hermes whom the Greeks revered as Guides of Souls. Chapters on Hermes and Night, Hermes and Eros, and Hermes and the goddesses illuminate the complex role of Hermes in classical mythology, while also providing an archetypal background for the guiding of souls in psychotherapy. A vital contribution both to the study of the classics and the therapy of the soul.
