Erkin Koray - Hay Yam Yam ücretsiz kitap indir

Ale Andrade aleffeandrade — Suggested more promise than it actually provided. Story could have been really amazing, and in some areas it was. But a lot of other areas just made me feel dirty and didn't seem completely necessary. I suppose these scenes did a good job showing the exploitation of a masculine "church" and its ability to denigrate women, but that didn't make it an enjoyable read. Warning to readers: There's a rape scene described from the bystander's POV.

Sadham Hussain sadham27 — A lightweight read, this is pure romantic fluff, with a typical beauty and the beast plotline with both the hero and the heroine defining unconventional beauty. Recommended for a relaxing, soothing pastime.

Even Gabrielsen evengabrielsen — Never really lives up to the promise of its first chapter, but a pretty fun diversion. Immortals, time travel, shadowy operatives, religious persecution... First in a loosely linked series.

Ammar Sami dr_ammarsa25 — I bought and started the book about a two and half weeks ago. I am currently on Part III chapter 11. Being an artist and having a fascination for history and the human mind, I could not help to be drawn to a different point of view about prehistoric cave art. Well Graham Hancock "takes you there" and I really appreciate that he does. This books is not for everyone but the ideas and inquiries are worth it to all. If we do not take a moment in our daily lives to stop, breath, and question what is really going on with us (i.e. as human being) and our relationships to each other and this great life force call earth. Then we will truly be in a desperately frightful state of existence. I invite any courageous, well read, and open minded adult to venture on their own path with the hope of recapturing the wisdom of our ancients. From where I stand, I am grateful to Graham Hancock and David Lewis-Williams for their incredible work in this area. This is my first book by G. Hancock, but I have a feeling not the last.

Laolu Adekanmbi _aolu7 — David Denby, a prominent film critic returns to the Ivy League classroom as a front-line correspondent on the culture wars. For this book, he spent an academic year attending Columbia University's famous ``core curriculum'' classes in the great books, Literature Humanities and Contemporary Civilization. Denby recreates how he read, pondered, and discussed classic texts from the ancient Greeks (Homer, Aeschylus, Thucydides, Euripides, and Sappho) to Nietzsche, Freud, and Conrad, all the time maintaining and meditating on his intensely cosmopolitan yet family-centered life. When Denby reads Plato and Aristotle, or for that matter Austen, he contemplates how the ``media fog'' to which he contributes as a film critic envelops his fellow students; when he reads Woolf, or for that matter Virgil, he considers the transformations wrought in his own lifetime by feminism. He makes a sensible, if gloomy, argument that the great books are too hard for today's underprepared undergraduates. But I reject his epiphanies over a feminist critique of Aristotle's Politics. By recording his own intellectual experiences and glossing over his own cultural blindness he does a disservice to the texts he critiques. Rather than distilling some of the significant ideas of the great thinkers that he read he merely tosses off a rejection of "ideologues" in general with lines like this: "By the end of my year in school, I knew that the culture-ideologues, both left and right, are largely talking nonsense."(p 459) This conclusion may have a grain of truth, but I would rather hear what he learned about knowing and thinking, and what truths he discovered that our culture does adhere to with justification. While he does put himself on the line as a student and as a person by actually reading the classics, his humility should be taken with the proverbial grain of salt. At the risk of being too skeptical, based on my own reading of these texts, I found this an unconvincing look at the classics. I would recommend you read the original classics with an open mind and then, if you choose to, consider Denby's book.
