From the beginning of human history, individuals across cultures and belief systems have looked to the sky for meaning. The movement of celestial bodies and their relation to our human lives has been the central tenant of astrology for thousands of years. The practice has both inspired reverence and worship, and deepened our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. While modern-day horoscopes may be the most familiar form of astrological knowledge, their lineage reaches back to ancient Mesopotamia. As author Andrea Richards recounts in Astrology, the second volume in Taschen's Library of Esoterica ... |

През 2008 г. група съмишленици от "Фондация за нова култура" направихме нова камбана и камбанария на село Горна Бела Речка. Мотивите ни не бяха религиозни. Водеха ни усещането, че на старите хора от селото наистина им липсва откраднатата камбана с "най-благия звук", предизвикателството - може ли отново да се направи "блага" камбана, удивлението - колко силен отпечатък в паметта оставят звуците, с които израстваме. Тази книга събира уроците и разказите, родени в процеса на правене на камбаната. Решихме да споделим този процес с повече читатели, защото да направиш камбана се оказа преживяване, ... |

The purpose I pursue with this book is to compare the information that has come down to us from old writers and to draw some conclusions about the people who spread the Bulgarian state to the Balkans, without resorting to the numerous contemporary books that I have read and that fill my library. I do this not out of disrespect for the tremendous work of contemporary Bulgarian writers and historians, but out of a desire to make an independent assessment of events and to draw my own conclusions about the relationship and sequence of events and their consequences by reading only older authors. I hope the book will find a ... |
