The New Revelation, by Arthur Conan Doyle - Akasha Classics,
AkashaPublishing.Com - The (dis)connection between psychological
(or scientific) and psychic mind is a subject that has baffled man
for centuries. The phenomenon captured the attention of Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle in a very particular way, a man in whom the analytic
and artistic struggled for dominance. Originally published in 1918,
the New Revelation deals not only with the issue of physical versus
metaphysical, but also considers the problem of death (and
afterlife) and the question of communication with the spirit world.
Conan Doyle's captivating prose and pragmatic, yet human, voice
makes for an enlightening exploration of some eternally relevant
questions and possible answers. Scottish surgeon and political
activist Sir Arthur Conan Doyle turned his passions into stories
and novels, producing fiction and nonfiction works sometimes
controversial (The Great Boer War, 1900), sometimes fanciful (The
Coming of the Fairies, 1922), and sometimes legendary (The
Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1892).

Elizabethan England's most famous natural philosopher John Dee recorded his reflections on the natural world, the practice of natural philosophy, and the apocalypse in a series of conversations with angels, which have long been an enigmatic facet of his life and work. This book makes extensive use of Dee's library and annotations to clarify this mystery by providing a detailed analysis of these conversations. Professor Harkness contextualizes Dee's angel conversations within the natural, philosophical, religious, and social contexts of his time, arguing that the conversations represent a continuing development of John Dee's earlier concerns and interests. This book will appeal to those with an interest in the history of science, students of religion, and everyone who approaches the new millennium with a wary eye.
This book is the first comprehensive examination of the ethical
parameters of paganism when considered as a world religion
alongside Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism. The
issues of evil, value and idolatry from a pagan perspective are
analyzed as part of the Western ethical tradition from the Sophists
and Platonic schools through the philosophers Spinoza, Hume, Kant
and Nietzsche to such contemporary thinkers as Grayling, Mackie,
MacIntyre, Habermas, Levinas, Santayana, etc. From a more practical
viewpoint, a delineation of applied pagan ethics is then presented
in connection with current moral issues such as same-sex union,
recreational drugs, environmental awareness, abortion and
terrorism. Finally, overviews of sectarian pagan ethics (Shinto,
Santeria, Heathenism, Druidry, Romuva, Slavic, Kemeticism,
Classical and Wicca) provide both the general and pagan reader with
an understanding of the provocative range and differentiation of
pagan ethical thought. The book approaches the Western ethical
tradition as an historical development and a continuing dialogue.
The novelty of this approach lies in its consideration of paganism
as a legitimate voice of religious spirituality rather than a
satanic aberration or ridiculous childish behavior. The book is
aimed at both the contemporary Western pagan and anyone with an
interest in the moral dilemmas of our times and the desire to
engage in the global ethical discussion. Among the more important
features of the book are its presentation of a re-evaluation of
idolatry, the notion of the virtue value, the richness of the pagan
tradition, and the expansion of Western ethics beyond its Christian
heritage.
