Maps of Paradise
Language: English
Published by British Library Publishing, 2013

Seller: Optimon Books, Gravesend, KENT, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. THERE ARE NO TARIFFS OR CUSTOMS DUTIES ON BOOKS. People everywhere share some kind of nostalgia for an innocence experienced at the beginning of history and look forward to a joy promised at the end of time, meanwhile searching for contemporary happiness. For two millennia, learned Christians have wondered where on earth could the primal paradise have been located? Where was the idyllic Garden of Eden that is described in the Bible? Where were Adam and Eve created in their unspoiled perfection? Scholars early rose to the challenge to identify the place on a map of the world, despite the certain knowledge that it was unreachable. Maps of Paradise charts the diverse ways in which they were led to depict the Garden of Eden on maps from Late Antiquity to the twenty-first century. It is the history of a paradox: the mapping of the unmappable. It is also a mirror to the universal dream of perfection and the yearning to find heaven on earth.

paperback. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

L'uomo con le radici in cielo

Brossura. Condition: new. Corsico, 2022; br., pp. 304, cm 15,5x23. A prima vista "L'uomo con le radici in cielo" potrebbe sembrare soltanto una storia medica e umana di dolore e guarigione, una vicenda privata estremamente intensa, a tratti drammatica, la cronaca di una dura prova che la vita ha imposto ad Alessandro, il suo protagonista. Ma questo libro è molto di più: una meditazione sulla vita e sulla morte, su Dio e sull'uomo, sulla dinamica tra libertà, vocazione e destino. Alessandro è uno scrittore, "insegna storia, tiene letture pubbliche di Dante" ed è un esperto di cartografia dell'Eden. Per anni ha studiato le immagini del luogo perduto di perfezione e felicità descritto nella Bibbia. Non è facile situare un cielo sulla terra ma è uno sforzo costante alla ricerca di un altrove che coinvolge anche lui. È infatti un sognatore, sempre alla ricerca di nuove avventure, ma avverte il bisogno di un amore più elevato, una forma ideale del sentimento in grado di conciliare le esigenze del corpo con quelle dello spirito. Improvvisamente, però, le sue vertigini di bellezza diventano vertigini fisiche. Alessandro comincia a stare molto male, fino al punto di annullare tutti i suoi impegni perché incapace di reggersi in piedi. A Londra, dove vive, gli viene in soccorso Charlotte, una sua ex studentessa che gli presta aiuto nonostante lui l'abbia già sedotta e abbandonata. La diagnosi di tumore al cervello impone ad Alessandro un brusco cambiamento di vita e il male diventa il punto di partenza per una riflessione più profonda sui meccanismi dell'esistenza e sui rapporti di coppia. La vicenda di Alessandro si intreccia ai miti antichi e alle storie bibliche, per insegnarci a superare l'inferno dell'ego e raggiungere un paradiso sempre oltre ma in realtà vicinissimo, sullo sfondo di uno stesso bagliore primordiale che genera galassie e comunità, amori e amicizie. Libro.
