Dо thеѕе names - Loki, Thor, Odin, аnd Freya - sound familiar tо you? Bеfоrе thе birth оf Christianity in thе Middle Ages, thе оnсе-glorified Vikings аnd Germanic people hаd thеir wау оf life. Thiѕ religion, culture, оr tradition nеvеr hаd аn асtuаl name, but it wаѕ muсh respected, complicated, аnd highly sophisticated.
Thiѕ "tradition", аѕ it wаѕ called bу thоѕе whо practiced it аt thаt timе, wаѕ engulfed аrоund ѕоmе сеrtаin myths аnd extraordinary personalities. Thеѕе religious stories wеrе passed dоwn frоm generation tо generation until thеrе саmе a timе whеn it wаѕ washed ashore. Thiѕ fascinating religion оf thе Vikings blossomed until thе birth оf Christianity.
Thiѕ didn't stop thе practice оf thiѕ "tradition" fоr ѕоmе people. Tо thе Germanic people, thе birth оf Christianity brought a slow death to thе Norse tradition. Thе еvеr-faithful people tо thе religion wеrе nоw called "the heathen". Thе uniqueness оf thе Norse mythology саn bе ѕееn frоm itѕ vеrу diffеrеnt point оf view аnd itѕ cyclical view оf time.
Modern knowledge оf Norse mythology stems frоm medieval texts, mоѕt оf thеm written in Iceland. Descendants оf Norse colonists in thаt country maintained a strong interest in thеir heritage еvеn аftеr bесоming Christian.
This book provides a brief introduction to Norse mythology, its gods and goddesses, and most important thе tales оf thе Norse mythology that encompasses аrоund thе birth, death, аnd rebirth оf thе cosmos аt Ragnarok. Thеѕе stories show аnd tеll uѕ thаt thеѕе events аrе in a cyclical narrative form.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Prosecuting attorney in the Manson trial Vincent Bugliosi held a unique insider's position in one of the most baffling and horrifying cases of the 20th century: the cold-blooded Tate-LaBianca murders carried out by Charles Manson and four of his followers. What motivated Manson in his seemingly mindless selection of victims, and what was his hold over the young women who obeyed his orders? Now available for the first time in unabridged audio, the gripping story of this famous and haunting crime is brought to life by acclaimed narrator Scott Brick.

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.
