Jataka Tales: "Tales of India"
￥18.80
The Jatakas, or Birth-stories, form one of the sac-red books of the Buddhists and relate to the adventures of the Buddha in his former existences, the best character in any story being identified with the Master.??These legends were continually introduced into the religious discourses of the Buddhist teachers to illustrate the doctrines of their faith or to magnify the glory and sanctity of the Buddha, somewhat as medieval preachers in Europe used to enliven their sermons by introducing fables and popular tales to rouse the flagging interest of their hearers.? Sculptured scenes from the Jatakas, found upon the carved railings around the relic shrines of Sanchi and Amaravati and of Bharhut, indicate that the "Birth-stories" were widely known in the third century B.C., and were then considered as part of the sacred history of the religion. ??At first the tales were probably handed down orally, and it is uncertain when they were put together in systematic form.??While some of the stories are Buddhistic and depend for their point on some custom or idea peculiar to Buddhism, many are age-old fables, the flotsam and jetsam of folklore, which have appeared under various guises throughout the centuries, as when they were used by Boccaccio or Poggio, merely as merry tales, or by Chaucer, who unwittingly puts a Jataka story into the mouth of his pardoners when he tells the tale of "the Ryotoures three."??Quaint humor and gentle earnestness distinguish these legends and they teach many wholesome lessons, among them the duty of kindness to animals.??Dr. Felix Adler in his "Moral Instruction of Children," says:?The Jataka Tales contain deep truths, and are calcu-lated to impress lessons of great moral beauty. The tale of the Merchant of Seri, who gave up all that he had in exchange for a golden dish, embodies much the same idea as the parable of the priceless Pearl, in the New Testament. The tale of the Measures of Rice illustrates the importance of a true estimate of values. The tale of the Banyan Deer, which offered its life to save a roe and her young, illustrates self-sacrifice of the noblest sort. The tale of the Sandy Road is one of the finest in the collection..
Mother Earth's Children: "The Frolics of the Fruits and Vegetables"
￥18.56
A seed, little friends, is really a plant or a tree all wrapped up in a little brown bundle. If you plant it in the ground it will grow, and when it is old enough it will bear fruit, because God has made it so. Among all the children of Mother Nature, the fruits and vegetables are probably the most useful to us. Wherever we may go some of these little people are there before us, ready to help us by giving us food and to make life easy and joyous for us. In your Mother’s garden you will always find many famil-iar friends; in the fields the graceful Grain children will nod and beckon to you; in the orchard the Fruit children will peep out at you from their leafy homes; along the roadside the gay little Berries will give you a friendly greeting, and in the forest you will find the little wild Grapes climbing trees and playing hide and seek with the Bird children. The publishers, who have already given you the Flower Children, Bird Children, and Animal Children, wish to join the author and the artist in their grateful acknowledgment of the wonderful appreciation which these books have received, and to hope that these new comrades will prove as fascinating as those whom you already know. For myself, little friends, I thank you from my heart. Elizabeth Gordon. Mother Earth's Children?"The Frolics of the Fruits and Vegetables" "Illustrated" by Elizabeth Gordon This little book is a thank-offering to the thousands of little friends who have so loyally given me their best in the way of encouragement and appreciation, and is most especially inscribed to Gladys Doris.

De?ertul se str?duie?te instinctiv s? nasc? o alt? lume, perfect?, dar tot de?ert pl?m?de?te.

Old Greek Stories: [Illustrated Edition]
￥28.29
PERHAPS no other stories have ever been told so often or listened to with so much pleasure as the classic tales of ancient Greece. For many ages they have been a source of delight to young people and old, to the ignorant and the learned, to all who love to hear about and contemplate things mysterious, beautiful, and grand. They have become so incorporated into our language and thought, and so interwoven with our literature, that we could not do away with them now if we would. They are a portion of our heritage from the distant past, and they form perhaps as important a part of our intellectual life as they did of that of the people among whom they originated.??That many of these tales should be read by children at an early age no intelligent person will deny. Sufficient reason for this is to be found in the real pleasure that every child derives from their pe-rusal: and in the preparation of this volume no other reason has been considered. I have here attempted to tell a few stories of Jupiter and his mighty company and of some of the old Greek he-roes, simply as stories, nothing more. I have care-fully avoided every suggestion of interpretation. Attempts at analysis and explanation will always prove fatal to a child's appreciation and enjoyment of such stories. To inculcate the idea that these tales are merely descriptions of certain natural phenomena expressed in narrative and poetic form, is to deprive them of their highest charm; it is like turning precious gold into utilitarian iron: it is changing a delightful romance into a dull scientific treatise. .

He comes so quietly into the house, for he walks without shoes; he opens the door without making any noise, and then he flirts sweet milk into the children's eyes; but so gently, so very gently, that they cannot keep their eyes open, and, therefore, they never see him; he steals softly behind them and blows gently on their necks, and thus their heads become heavy. ??Oh yes! But then it does them no harm; for Ole Luckoie means nothing but kindness to the children, he only wants to amuse them; and the best thing that can be done is for somebody to carry them to bed, where they may lie still and listen to the tales that he will tell them.

The children who read fairy books, or have fairy books read to them, do not read prefaces, and the parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins, who give fairy books to their daughters, nieces, and cousins, leave prefaces unread. For whom, then, are prefaces written When an author publishes a book 'out of his own head,' he writes the preface for his own pleasure. After reading over his book in print—to make sure that all the 'u's' are not printed as 'n's,' and all the 'n's' as 'u's' in the proper names—then the author says, mildly, in his preface, what he thinks about his own book, and what he means it to prove—if he means it to prove anything—and why it is not a better book than it is. But, perhaps, nobody reads prefaces except other authors; and critics, who hope that they will find enough in the preface to enable them to do without reading any of the book. This appears to be the philosophy of prefaces in general, and perhaps authors might be more daring and candid than they are with advantage, and write regular criticisms of their own books in their prefaces, for nobody can be so good a critic of himself as the author—if he has a sense of humour. If he has not, the less he says in his preface the better. These Fairy Books, however, are not written by the Editor, as he has often explained, 'out of his own head.' The stories are taken from those told by grannies to grandchildren in many countries and in many languages—French, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, Gaelic, Icelandic, Cherokee, African, Indian, Australian, Slavonic, Eskimo, and what not. The stories are not literal, or word by word translations, but have been altered in many ways to make them suitable for children.FAIRIES:- The Story of the Hero Makoma- The Magic Mirror- Story of the King Who Would See Paradise- How Isuro the Rabbit Tricked Gudu- Ian, the Soldier's Son- The Fox and the Wolf- How Ian Direach Got the Blue Falcon- The Ugly Duckling- The Two Caskets- The Goldsmith's Fortune- The Enchanted Wreath- The Foolish Weaver- The Clever Cat- The Story of Manus- Pinkel the Thief- The Adventures of a Jackal- The Adventures of the Jackal's Eldest Son- The Adventures of the Younger Son of the Jackal- The Three Treasures of the Giants- The Rover of the Plain- The White Doe- The Girl-Fish- The Owl and the Eagle- The Frog and the Lion Fairy- The Adventures of Covan the Brown-Haired- The Princess Bella-Flor- The Bird of Truth- The Mink and the Wolf- Adventures of an Indian Brave- How the Stalos Were Tricked- Andras Baive- The White Slipper- The Magic Book.

De?i duce o via?? prosper? ?i a?ezat?, Anna simte c? e ?n pragul unui colaps mental. ?n deriv? ?i incapabil? s? comunice cu so?ul ei ?i s?-?i ?n?eleag? propriile g?nduri ?i sentimente, Anna ?ncearc? s?-?i reg?seasc? entuziasmul cu ajutorul unor experien?e noi: cursuri de german?, analiz? jungian? ?i o serie de aventuri sexuale ?n care intr? cu o non?alan?? ce o uime?te p?n? ?i pe ea.Dar situa?ia devine tot mai ap?s?toare ?i v?rtejul de minciuni ?i scap? de sub control.Pentru c? a trecut dincolo de limitele moralei, Anna va descoperi c? nu mai exist? ?ntoarcere.“Un roman de debut despre Anna, o casnic? plictisit? care, asemenea eroinei cu acela?i nume din romanul lui Tolstoi, se arunc? ?ntr-o aventur? psihologic? ?i sexual? a autocunoa?terii.“ - The Oprah MaMagazine“Senzual ?i profund, acest roman extraordinar de bine scris dezv?luie sufletul sf??iat al unei femei.“ - People“Cartea lui Essbaum e construit? impecabil, meticulos, iar alternan?a trecut-prezent e redat? cu mare virtuozitate.“ - Chicago Tribune“?n copil?rie visam s? ajung o romancier? faimoas?. Scriam pove?ti care erau minunate, a?a cum sunt inven?iile copil?riei, dar sunau ?ngrozitor.
