Einar Thomassen
The Spiritual Seed: The Church of the `Valentinians`

2008 y.
Publisher: Brill
Description: This book is a comprehensive study of `Valentinianism,` the most important Gnostic Christian movement in Antiquity. It is the first attempt to make full use of the Valentinian documents from Nag Hammadi as well as the reports of the Church Fathers. The book discusses the difference between the Eastern and the Western branches of Valentinianism, and argues that individual sources must always be understood in the context of the historical development of Valentinian doctrines. It also analyses the ideas about the incarnation, protological theories, and initiation practice, as well as the dynamic relationship between these building-blocks of Valentinian doctrine. A final chapter studies anew the doctrine of Valentinus himself and outlines the history of the movement. The book`s usefulness lies in its attempt to bring together for the first time all the sources so as to construct a coherent picture of Valentinian Christianity. Формат: 16 см x 24 см. [detailed...]

The Spirituality of Success: Getting Rich With Integrity

Publisher: —
Description: THE SPIRITUALITY OF SUCCESS Getting Rich With Integrity `I hated myself and dreaded what I represented and had become. What a loser. But the path takes time to develop. Don`t judge a person by the moment they`re in - their life isn`t over. I don`t feel sympathy or the need to judge others. It`s our destination that counts. One of the best things, for me, was to become an addict. At the time I was in it I was in Hell, but who I am today is partially based on being who I was. Out of the process, I became this new person. Would you rather attain success and skip the process of the pain, sure, but if you like the result now, you can`t deny the path. There are reasons why we go through what we do.` - Vincent Roazzi Vincent Roazzi is not your everyday success story. Before he started accumulating a net worth in the millions and gaining a reputation as a top-notch sales trainer, he grew up in Brooklyn as a car-stealing gang member. He was a product of his environment in the rough… [detailed...]

They catalog tales of bootlegging, literary teas, shifting cliques of artists and writers, cabaret slumming, sexual and social peccadilloes, and a seemingly endless sequence of parties.

Description: It would be an international crime to reveal too much of the jeweled clockwork plot of Le Carre`s first masterpiece, `The Spy Who Came in from the Cold`. But we are at liberty to disclose that Graham Greene called it the `finest spy story ever written`, and that the taut tale concerns Alec Leamas, a British agent in early Cold War Berlin. Leamas is responsible for keeping the double agents under his care undercover and alive, but East Germans start killing them, so he gets called back to London by Control, his spy master. Yet instead of giving Leamas the boot, Control gives him a scary assignment: play the part of a disgraced agent, a sodden failure everybody whispers about. Control sends him back out into the cold-deep into Communist territory to checkmate the bad-guy spies on the other side. The political chessboard is black and white, but in human terms the vicinity of the Berlin Wall is a moral no-man`s land, a gray abyss patrolled by pawns. Формат: 11 см х 17,5 см. [detailed...]
