A description of the phonology of modern Greek dialects from the
point of view of their historical development in so far as this may
be reconstructed from their modern form. An introductory chapter
explains the basis of the approach adopted, and makes the book
readily intelligible to the students of Greek with no special
training in linguistics. Throughout the work the historical
development of numerous sample words is presented in order to
illustrate the rules.
Humanity stands at the threshold of a new phase of Earth's
planetary evolution. Breathtaking possibilities - in tune with the
evolutionary path of the universe - are now available. Yet the
question arises: Does humanity have the ideas, foresight and
potential for action that could create a culture that corresponds
to the planet's transformation? In the midst of distressing
ecological crises, Marko Pogacnik offers fresh hope. Having worked
intensively in the fields of holistic ecology (geomancy) and
Earth-healing for four decades, he now formulates a vision of a
culture based on co-creation with Gaia (the Earth), her elemental
worlds and beings from parallel evolutions. Creating Gaia Culture
is also a workbook, featuring dozens of drawings and meditative
exercises to help transcend mental obstacles by cultivating the
quality of living imagination. Pogacnik - UNO Goodwill Ambassador
and UNESCO Artist for Peace - presents numerous ways to collaborate
with the process of creating Gaia culture. He allows us to look
into the primeval source of the future by interpreting the ancient
book of the biblical Apocalypse - a text that holds the secret of
Earth changes in a coded vision of a new human civilization - and
uses his experiences, visions, dream stories and communications
with beings from parallel worlds to trigger pictures that can
enable a new human culture become a tactile reality.
