| earth in other languages: Eating the Sun Oliver Morton, 2009-11-17 Wherever there is greenery, photosynthesis is working to make oxygen, release energy, and create living matter from the raw material of sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. Without photosynthesis, there would be an empty world, an empty sky, and a sun that does nothing more than warm the rocks and reflect off the sea. Eating the Sun is the story of a world in crisis; an appreciation of the importance of plants; a history of the earth and the feuds and fantasies of warring scientists; a celebration of how the smallest things, enzymes and pigments, influence the largest things, the oceans, the rainforests, and the fossil fuel economy. Oliver Morton offers a fascinating, lively, profound look at nature's greatest miracle and sounds a much-needed call to arms—illuminating a potential crisis of climatic chaos and explaining how we can change our situation, for better or for worse. |

| earth in other languages: now and then 2 Bob Maddison, 2012-09-05 Lost civilizations? Origins of mankind? Why does mankind seem to need religion? Why is there so much confusion and mental indigestion manifest among not only rank and file mankind, but also actively demonstrated by the academics? After all, does it really matter who built the pyramids of Egypt? Or when they were built? Does it matter that there are so many confusing and conflicting claims by the proponents of the many religions? So who, or what, is god? Is it Jehovah, Allah, Krishna, or Enlil? Or perchance it is a fiction. And what does it matter or avail if we understand the true origins of man or not? If we cannot correctly understand who and what mankind is, how can we ever know and understand what angels, demons, gods, God, or aliens are? Is it that we are the aliens and this was not our earth? |

| earth in other languages: Tantra Yoga (Sacred Knowledge of Self, God and Universe) Setyo Hajar Dewantoro, 2022-01-01 Tantra Yoga is actually a spiritual teaching that was developed based on a deep understanding of the reality of the self, the universe and God. This teaching guides spiritual learners to be able to step into Divine Consciousness, with the estuary of liberation of the soul from all the roots of sorrow. In Tantra Yoga, there are systems and methods that lead to the purification of the soul from all karmic residues, bad traces of trauma and mental wounds, angkara murka, illusions and entanglements of inharmonious energies. Unfortunately, a lot of confusion has developed regarding Tantra. In the West, there are many neo-tantras that make sexuality the axis of teaching. This triggers people to associate Tantra with sexuality. In other parts of the Earth, such as in Nusantara, Tantra is often associated with brutal rituals that are considered as the application of the teachings of Panca Makara. Legendary figures from Nusantara such as Adityawarman, Sri Kertanegara and Calon Arang are often mentioned as practitioners of Tantra, specifically Bhairawi Tantra, with the habit of holding following rituals that undoubtedly make people in the modern era shake their heads: eating corpses, binge alcoholic drinking and sex parties, or performing dances. mystic naked in the grave. This book was actually written to answer all the confusion and at the same time straighten the slander against the legendary figures of Nusantara. In this book, Tantric practices are explained which are actually divine, simple and effective, to lead to enlightenment and a life full of happiness. Tantric practice includes dhyana, pranayama, samadhi, mantra, yantra and others. The author of this book, Setyo Hajar Dewantoro is a practitioner of Tantra as a path of stillness mindfulness that leads to connectedness as well asand great oneness with Sang Hyang Atman/True SelfDivine Self and Brahman/God Almighty. The readers are invited to dive into Tantra as a teaching of spiritual sciences as well asand a holistic method for the transformation of the soul towards purity, wisdom and complete perfect empowerment. |

They argue that the major events in the Bible such as the victory of Abraham against Chedorlaomer, an unknown king of Elam around 2000 BCE, the victory of Moses against an unknown Pharaoh around 1500 BCE or the victory of Esther, an unknown Persian Queen, against an unknown vizier of Xerxes, never existed because they left absolutely no evidence. They also explain that according to what we know today, these events could not have occurred. These logical arguments are impressive but a precise chronological analysis based on absolute dates, coupled with a rigorous historical investigation, shows that all those major events really took place at the dates and places indicated. |

| earth in other languages: The cosmic dubious big bang Dietmar Dressel, 2021-11-10 From our previous considerations on this topic, I mean by that: The material universe in the cosmic cycle, and from our jointly developed level of knowledge and the factual understanding, one may be able to understand the enthusiasm. However, with the cosmic evolution before this dubious Big Bang, all of this has next to nothing to offer. Specifically, after I was able to read a little in the archives of mankind from the modern planet earth, I mean that they define cosmic evolution from the beginning of this dubious Big Bang. They connect this, from their point of view, central, cosmic event without restriction with the beginning of the cosmic world, without defining this world in concrete terms, energetically and materially. And by that I mean not only material evolution, but also the biological development of living beings of the most varied kinds. |

| earth in other languages: Sciences of the Earth Gregory A. Good, 2019-10-18 The planet as seen by its inhabitants In two millenia, our knowledge of the planet and its natural laws and forces has undergone remarkable changes--from the religious belief of earth as the center of the universe to the modern astronomers' view that it is a mere speck in the cosmos. Now a first-of-its-kind reference work charts this remarkable intellectual progression in our evolving perception of the earth by surveying the history of geology, geography, geophysics, oceanography, meteorology, space science, and many other fields. Covers human understanding of the Earth in various times and cultures The Encyclopedia traces our understanding of the earth and its functioning throughout history, summarizing historical explanations of earthly occurrences, including explanations with no scientific basis. It presents the latest facts and theories, explains how our understanding of the earth has evolved, and shows why many outrageous and fanciful earlier ideas were accepted in their time. The coverage explores the physical phenomena that inform our knowledge, starting at the earth's core and extending outward through the mantle, crust, oceans, and atmosphere to the magnetosphere and beyond. Charts the evolution of our perceptions The primary focus of the Encyclopedia is the history of the study of the earth. It also discusses the institutions that advanced and shaped science and probes the interplay between science, practical applications, and social and political forces. The result is a unified historical overview of the earth across a wide canvas of time and place, from antiquity to the space age. Its wide-ranging articles summarize subjects as diverse as geography and imperialism, environmentalism, computers and meteorology, ozone formation theories since 1800, scientific rocketry, the Scopes trial, and much more. Special Features Shows how diverse disciplines, from geology to space science, fit together in a coherent view of the earth * Explains earlier ideas and theories in the context of the beliefs and scientific knowledge of their time * Spotlights important institutions that have shaped the history of science * Explores relationships between science, practical applications, and sociopolitical concerns * Provides a subject index and an index of scientists with birth/death dates |

| earth in other languages: Scattered All Over the Earth Yoko Tawada, 2022-03-01 A mind-expanding, cheerfully dystopian new novel by Yoko Tawada, winner of the 2022 National Book Award Welcome to the not-too-distant future: Japan, having vanished from the face of the earth, is now remembered as “the land of sushi.” Hiruko, its former citizen and a climate refugee herself, has a job teaching immigrant children in Denmark with her invented language Panska (Pan-Scandinavian): “homemade language. no country to stay in. three countries I experienced. insufficient space in brain. so made new language. homemade language.” As she searches for anyone who can still speak her mother tongue, Hiruko soon makes new friends. Her troupe travels to France, encountering an umami cooking competition; a dead whale; an ultra-nationalist named Breivik; unrequited love; Kakuzo robots; red herrings; uranium; an Andalusian matador. Episodic and mesmerizing scenes flash vividly along, and soon they’re all next off to Stockholm. With its intrepid band of companions, Scattered All Over the Earth (the first novel of a trilogy) may bring to mind Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland or a surreal Wind in the Willows, but really is just another sui generis Yoko Tawada masterwork. |
| earth in other languages: Translating Frantz Fanon Across Continents and Languages Kathryn Batchelor, Sue-Ann Harding, 2017-04-21 This book provides an innovative look at the reception of Frantz Fanon’s texts, investigating how, when, where and why these—especially his seminal Les Damnés de la Terre (1961) —were first translated and read. Building on renewed interest in the author’s works in both postcolonial studies and revolutionary movements in recent years, as well as travelling theory, micro-history and histoire croisée interests in Translation Studies, the volume tells the stories of translations of Fanon’s texts into twelve different languages – Arabic, Danish, English, German, Italian, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Swahili and Swedish – bringing both a historical and multilingual perspective to the ways in which Fanon is cited today. With contributions from an international, interdisciplinary group of scholars, the stories told combine themes of movement and place, personal networks and agency, politics and activism, archival research and textual analysis, creating a book that is a fresh and comprehensive volume on the translated works of Frantz Fanon and essential reading for scholars in translation studies, postcolonial studies, cultural studies, critical race studies, and African and African diaspora literature. |
