Take one part of the world''s oldest spiritual system (shamanism), mix in one part of one of the world''s most popular spiritual cultures (the Celts), and bring it up to date by blending in modern forms of shamanism. The result is one of the most amazing books you''ll ever use, D. J. Conway''s By Oak, Ash, & Thorn.

This book is filled with information that can start you on a lifetime of study, practice, and spirituality. First, you''ll learn about ancient and modern forms of shamanism. You''ll discover the secrets of the three shamanic worlds, and how you can travel through these mysterious realms. You''ll be shown how to communicate and deal with the entities and allies you meet there. You''ll also learn about the tools that a shaman uses.

The thing that makes this book unique is that it comes from the viewpoint of Celtic shamanism, and not some generalized form. As a result, the worlds are specifically Celtic in nature. The tools come from Celtic myth and lore. The fifty entities you meet are named and defined as the Faery Folk and their kin — from the Bean sidhe (banshee) to the Will o'' the Wisp (a faery who appears at night in lonely places carrying a lantern to confuse travellers). Almost fifty more animal allies are listed and described. You will also learn the mysteries of the vision quest and how it applies and can be used by Celtic shamans.

Before starting your journey you will take a test to determine your strengths and weaknesses as a potential shaman.

Other topics include:

- Shamanic Healing
- Soul Retrieval
- Shape-shifting
- Invisibility
- Divination with stones, the omen stick and the Ogam alphabet
- Pathworking through the three shamanic worlds
- Different forms of Celtic magic

Un giovane irlandese alla ricerca della propria realizzazione nel mondo, dopo molteplici incontri e varie vicende decide, come si conviene, di sposare la sua fidanzata e avere da lei molti bambini. Il protagonista vive le sue avventure passeggiando nei luoghi da cui Flann O'Brien non si allontanò mai: Dublino e i suoi immediati dintorni che, come nella migliore tradizione irlandese, non sono soltanto simbolo del mondo, ma anche e soprattutto fonte inesauribile di storie nelle storie nelle storie. A giudicare dalla trama si potrebbe dunque collocare il libro fra i tipici romanzi di formazione, se non fosse che l'autore è Flann O'Brien, bizzarro scrittore irlandese al quale mai sarebbe balenato di scrivere un tradizionale romanzo di formazione...

The third edition of Koehler and Baumgartner's Hebrew dictionary is widely regarded as the most up-to-date dictionary for the Old Testament and related literature in classical Hebrew and Aramaic. The complete and unabridged translation is being prepared in four volumes by an international team of Hebrew and Old Testament scholars, and will undoubtedly become the standard modern English dictionary for Biblical Hebrew. The dictionary contains the complete vocabulary of the Hebrew Bible, extended with variants from the Oriental and Samaritan textual traditions, the Ben Sira fragments, the Dead Sea Scrolls, etc. In addition to taking full advantage of advances that have been made in Semitic linguistics since the publication of older dictionaries, it offers a strictly alphabetical order of entries rather than an arrangement by verbal roots, making it especially suited to beginning students of classical Hebrew.
