楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Argonautica, a monumental epic by Rhodius Apollonius, chronicles the daring voyage of Jason and the Argonauts as they seek the fabled Golden Fleece. Richly interwoven with themes of heroism, divine intervention, and the complex interplay of love and ambition, Apollonius employs a sophisticated literary style that blends traditional epic narrative with innovative character development. Set against the backdrop of the mythological landscape of ancient Greece, the poem not only revisits familiar legends but also reinterprets them, emphasizing emotional depth and the psychological intricacies of its characters, particularly the tormented figure of Medea. Apollonius, a prominent figure of the Hellenistic era, was deeply influenced by the works of earlier poets, notably Homer and Hesiod, yet sought to carve his unique literary identity. His experiences in the culturally vibrant city of Alexandria provided a fertile ground for his poetic endeavors, where he was both a scholar and a poet, reflecting the complexities of human emotions in a rapidly changing world. This juxtaposition between scholarly pursuits and lyrical creativity culminated in a rich tapestry of narrative artistry in The Argonautica. For readers intrigued by the intersections of mythology, heroism, and the intricacies of human relationships, The Argonautica is an essential exploration of ancient literature that remains profoundly relevant. It invites readers to not only traverse a fantastical voyage but also to grapple with the timeless themes of desire and conflict that resonate through the ages.

<p>In 'Helen of Troy', Andrew Lang intricately weaves a narrative that revisits the myth of the legendary figure who sparked the Trojan War. Employing a poetic and lyrical style, Lang blends classical themes with a modern sensibility, offering readers an intricate portrayal of beauty, desire, and the catastrophic consequences of love. The book places Helen not merely as a passive icon of beauty but as a complex character, engaging with the cultural and historical contexts of Homer's Iliad while innovatively expanding on the existing myths surrounding her. Lang'??s narrative reflects the literary tradition of the late 19th century, characterized by a revival of interest in classical literature and mythology, infused with Victorian sensibilities that interrogate the notions of heroism and honor. Andrew Lang (1844-1912), a Scottish poet, novelist, and anthropologist, was renowned for his contributions to folklore and literary studies.

Lang's diverse interests, from collecting fairy tales to studying ancient myths, provided him with a unique perspective in breathing new life into age-old stories, challenging readers to think critically about the roles of mythic figures in history. This captivating retelling is highly recommended for readers interested in classical literature and mythology, as well as those seeking a rich psychological and emotional exploration of one of antiquity's most iconic figures.

Mythological Storytelling: Classic Stages Of The Hero's Journey The Modern Monomyth, #1【電子書籍】[ Josh Coker ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>ATTENTION FICTION WRITERS:</strong></p> <p>If you plan on writing any kind of fiction story, this book is for you!</p> <p>When you buy this book you'll learn:<br /> - The classic 3-act structure that all blockbusters follow<br /> - The difference between the known world and the special world of your story<br /> - The 18 distinct stages of the hero's journey<br /> - The main archetypes of the Monomyth<br /> - Plus I'll provide real-life examples from modern-day stories that sell<br /> - And each chapter ends with action steps that you can take today to make your story come alive</p> <p>AND MUCH, MUCH MORE...</p> <p>Below is an excerpt from the book:</p> <p>As a fiction writer, the goal is to create a story that resonates with the audience. We all want to write something gripping that people will share with friends and family; a narrative that lasts with the reader for years to come. Unfortunately, this is easier said than done. Many of us start out with a passion for storytelling. We love exploring new worlds and developing complex characters. So we begin to write. But at some point, every storyteller realizes that in order to become a professional, we must hone our natural talent into a skill. So, what do we do? We buy books on writing. There's a book out there for everything. Some teach plot, others character. There are books that explain how to write action, suspense, conflict, dialogue, setting, theme, etc...</p> <p>But no matter how logical we structure our story, or how perfectly we construct our prose, the story doesn't seem to have that "X-factor."</p> <p>Even well-known professionals face this problem. Think about how many times you've gone to the movies or picked up a book by a writer you follow, or a franchise you love, only to be completely let down. How many forgettable novels or films have you come across in your lifetime? Some written by reputable authors and screenwriters. Even though the action, mystery, or romance was great, the story still fell flat. The narrative lacked some mystical element that every great story seems to inherently possess.</p> <p>This is the major problem every author, writer, poet, screenwriter, and storyteller face.</p> <p>The Modern Monomyth series is aimed to teach writers from all walks of life how to fuel their stories with the power of myth. By utilizing mythological elements from the Monomyth (also known as the Hero's Journey), authors are able to connect with their audience on a deep psychological level.</p> <p>This book provides a definition of the Monomyth and its early origins. It teaches the three-act structure as it pertains to the Hero's Journey and explains the difference between the known world and the special world of your story. You'll learn what really makes a character heroic, and how plot and character feed off of each other, creating both an inner and outer journey. We'll outline the 18 distinct stages of the hero's journey and briefly discuss the main archetypes of the Monomyth. For each stage, this book provides at least four modern examples from well-known stories. Each example will help you understand Hero's Journey, and help you identify the stages in your own book. Every chapter concludes with action steps, which you can immediately use on your story. These will help you infuse mythic power and life into the narrative. By the end of the book, you'll have a basic understanding of the Monomyth and a road map for your own story.</p> <p><strong>I'm sure you're going to love this book and write a great story. But don't take my word for it. Scroll up and buy your copy today!</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>WERE it not for fear of Mrs. Grundy, whose awful visage is to the modern Briton what the Gorgon's head was to the ancient Greek, it might be said that Popular Prejudice is the deaf, deformed sister of Justice. Popular Prejudice makes up her mind on certain subjects, and is grandly unconscious of any fault within herself; ignorant that she is deaf, and that she is morally blind, although able to see every petty object that passes within her range. Popular Prejudice, like her stately cousin, Mrs. Grundy, arranges fixed rules of etiquette, of conduct, even of feeling, and never pardons the slightest infringement of the lines she marks out. A man may lay down his life for "an idea," but if it be outside the ramparts of Popular Prejudice, he does so as a rebel, maybe a fool. A man may have high aspirations, but if by the breadth of a hair's line they run not parallel with the views of Popular Prejudice, let him be anathema maranatha, let him be bound in chains, away with him to outer darkness, to the company of the few who share hisー"crotchets." Whisper it not in Gath that a woman should dare ever to transgress the lines laid down by Popular Prejudice. A woman is a subordinate accident in Creation, quite an afterthought, a supplementary notion, a postscript, though Humour might laughingly say, much like the famous postscript to a lady's letter. Man (though he is permitted to include in his superb all-comprehensive identity, Woman) is big, strong, noble, intellectual: a Being. Woman is small, weak, seldom noble, and ought not to be conscious of the significance of the word Intellectual.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Like Another Helen A Mythological Saga of Love, Betrayal, and Glory【電子書籍】[ George Horton ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Like Another Helen," George Horton intricately weaves a tale steeped in the rich tapestry of classical literature, drawing parallels with the myth of Helen of Troy. The narrative is suffused with vivid imagery and poignant lyricism, reflecting a meticulous attention to the emotional landscapes of its characters. Set against the backdrop of the burgeoning 20th century, the novel explores themes of love, betrayal, and the quest for identity, positioning itself within the context of contemporary works that grapple with the human condition, akin to the literary movements of Modernism and Romanticism. Horton's storytelling invites readers to reflect on the timeless nature of desire and conflict, enriched by a nuanced character development that keeps them engaged throughout the journey. George Horton, an accomplished poet and novelist, lived through the turbulence of societal change in the early 1900s, an experience that deeply informs "Like Another Helen." His personal encounters with themes of loss and longing propel his writing, marrying historical incidents with personal reflections. His background, steeped in the traditions of both Greek literature and American realism, sheds light on his endeavors to capture the complexity of human emotions in a swiftly evolving world. Readers seeking a narrative that resonates with both historical depth and profound emotion will find "Like Another Helen" to be an essential addition to their literary repertoire. Horton's masterful use of language and imagery rewards those willing to delve into the intricacies of love and loyalty, making this a compelling read for scholars and casual readers alike.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Story of Rama A Mythological Novel【電子書籍】[ Narendra K. Sinha ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The story of the Ramayana, intricately interwoven with mythologies, legends and the supernatural, bases upon events having taken place sometimes in the 8th century B.C., the lowest dateline determined by scholars. It was in the state of Kosala in east India, that, there flourished a king named Dasharatha with his capital in Ayodhya. He was very pious, truthful and righteous king. In order to procure a successor he married three times with women named Kausaly, Sumitra, and Kaikeyi in that order. Having failed to have a son from them he undertook a son-begetting sacrifice resulting into births of Rama to Kausalya, Bharata to Kaikeyi, and the twins Lakshmana and Shatrughna to Sumitra.</p> <p>From the very beginning, being the eldest son, Rama was groomed as the future king. He was brave, courageous, and valorous person as well as truthful, obedient, and righteous son. In an early age, he killed several ferocious Rakshasas, belonging to a savage race comparable to demons. Rama won the hand of Sita, the daughter of king Janaka of Mithila by stringing a great celestial bow. At the age twenty-five, he was to be consecrated as a crown prince.</p> <p>However, Kaikaeyi, mother of Bharata, played the spoiler. As earlier, she had been promised two boons by her husband, she took that opportunity to get them fulfilled. She secured crown for her son Bharata and fourteen years of exile for Rama in a forest. Reluctantly agreeing to kaikaeyis deictates the king banished his beloved son, but died out of grief. Rama left for the forest. His wife Sita and brother Lakshmana accompanied him. He spent his time protecting the Brahmanas and ascetics from the Rakshasas in different forests and safeguarding their interests.</p> <p>During the last year of their sojourn Ravana, the king of Lanka and head of all the Rakshasas, abducted Sita. Rama undertook journey to the southern state of Kishkindha, made friendship with Sugriva, the king of the Vanara community, by restoring his throne to him after killing his oppressive brother Valin. With the help of Sugriva, he was able to wage a war against Ravana, kill him, and recover Sita. However, for the fear of public opinion going against Sita because of suspected violation of her dhastity during her captivity by Ravana, Rama was initially reluctant to take her back as a wife.</p> <p>Sota was required to undergo a trial by placing herself in the fire to prove her chastity. Although Rama accepted her initially after her successful trial, when he found later that the public opinion in Ayodhya was against her, he banished her into a forest. Sita took refuge in the hermitage of Valmiki. Being already pregnant, she delivered twin sons named Kusha and Lava there. At an early age of twelve, the two children sang Ramayana as composed by Valmiki in the streets of Ayodhya and won a pardon for their mother not only by Rama, but also by the people. However, it was too late for Sita. She prayed the mother earth to take her in her la and vanished into it.</p> <p>After ruling for several more years and setting up a model system of administration, still considered the ideal one, Rama finally took to heaven.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Is the lion the symbol of China? Or should it be the dragon or the phoenix? This book makes a provocative interpretation of the Chinese ancient totems such as the bear and the owl. Taking a mythological approach, it explores the origin of Chinese civilization using the quadruple evidence method, which integrates ancient and unearthed literature, oral transmission, and archeological objects and graphs.</p> <p>It testifies to the authenticity of unresolved ancient myths and legends from the origins of Chinese Jade Ware (6200BC-5400 BC) to the names of the Yellow Emperor (2698?2598 BC) and the legends from the Xia (2010BC-1600BC), Shang (1600BC-046BC), Zhou (1046BC-771BC), and Qin (221BC-206BC) Dynasties. The book lays the foundation for a reconstruction of Chinese Mythistory. With well over 200 photographs of historic artifacts, the book appeals to both researchers and general readers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
