Cherry Gilchrist

    2 april 1949

    Cherry Gilchrist duikt in het oude en het mysterieuze, en put inspiratie uit uitgebreid veldonderzoek in diverse landschappen, van Russische bossen tot het afgelegen Paaseiland. Haar schrijven verkent de interactie tussen mythologie, alchemie en persoonlijke connecties, waarbij tijdloze archetypen worden belicht. Ze staat bekend om het verbinden van oude wijsheid met het hedendaagse leven, met een bijzondere focus op de uitdrukking van vrouwelijke archetypen in de dagelijkse ervaringen van vrouwen. Haar werk biedt lezers een unieke lens om diepere patronen van het menselijk bestaan te begrijpen.

      Seventy years since Anne began her diary . . . '12th June, 1942- I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a great source of comfort and support.' In the summer of 1942, fleeing the horrors of the Nazi occupation, Anne Frank and her family were forced into hiding in the back of an Amsterdam warehouse. Aged thirteen when she went into the secret annexe, Anne kept a diary in which she confided her innermost thoughts and feelings, movingly revealing how the eight people living under these extraordinary conditions coped with the daily threat of discovery and death, being cut off from the outside world, petty misunderstandings and the unbearable strain of living like prisoners. An intimate record of tension and struggle, adolescence and confinement, anger and heartbreak, this is the definitive edition of the diary of Anne Frank. 'A modern classic.' The Times'Rings down the decades as the most moving testament to the persecution of innocence.' Daily Mail'Astonishing and excruciating. Its gnaws at us still.' New York Times Book Review'A monument to the human spirit.' Mail on Sunday

    • Netradiční pohled na tradiční učení z dob "šerého dávnověku", které má k naší současnosti mnohem blíž, než si myslíme. Autorka se alchymii, kabale, astrologii a meditaci věnuje již několik desítek let a má na svém kontě více než dvacet úspěšných knižních titulů. Jak sama uvádí, alchymie je práce pro ty, kteří vědomě hledají změnu většího rozsahu, změnu pro duchovní růst. Všem těm - a nejen jim - je určena tato pozoruhodná publikace obsahující mnoho praktických rad, jak pomocí alchymie obohatit svůj život a dosáhnout kýžených cílů.

    • Die als Astrologin und Wahrsagerin arbeitende Anthropologin zeigt Wege auf, um verborgene Fähigkeiten zu aktivieren. Sie bedient sich dabei der allegorischen Embleme der "Atlanta Fugiens" (1617) des Alchimisten Michael Maier, die sie im Kontext alchimistischer Lehren interpretiert. Alchimie war nicht beschränkt auf den materiellen Aspekt einer Umwandlung von Blei in Gold, sondern dahinter stand die Idee eines geistigen Transformations und Wachstumsprozesses. So sind denn auch die Übungen angelegt, die Gilchrist empfiehlt, beispielsweise den eigenen Willen entdecken, Träume festhalten, vernachlässigte alte Aktivitäten wieder aufnehmen, über Veränderungen nachsinnen. Ziel auch der Visualisierungsübungen ist es, wieder "eine gesunde Verbindung zum Leben herzustellen". Wie modern Alchimie oder eine bestimmte alchimistische Sichtweise ist, deutet sich auch in alchimistischen Firmenkonzepten, etwa bei Wala und Weleda an (vgl. "Paracelsusmedizin", ID 36/01).

      Introduction and Notes by Professor Stephen Arkin, San Francisco University. 'Young women who have no economic or political power must attend to the serious business of contriving material security'. Jane Austen's sardonic humour lays bare the stratagems, the hypocrisy and the poignancy inherent in the struggle of two very different sisters to achieve respectability. Sense and Sensibility is a delightful comedy of manners in which the sisters Elinor and Marianne represent these two qualities. Elinor's character is one of Augustan detachment, while Marianne, a fervent disciple of the Romantic Age, learns to curb her passionate nature in the interests of survival. This book, the first of Austen's novels to be published, remains as fresh a cautionary tale today as it ever was.
