Lao Tzu, the legendary author of the Tao Te Ching , is also credited with the authorship of the Hua Hu Ching , which embodies some of his later teachings. During a time of political turmoil in the fourteenth century, all copies of this work were banned and ordered to be burned. Thus, few if any complete and accurate manuscripts exist today. Fortunately, the complete teachings of the Hua Hu Ching have been preserved through the oral transmission of generation after generation of Taoist masters to their disciples. In this book, Master Ni, heir to that orally transmitted wisdom, offers a superlative rendering of this reassured teaching.

Cervantes' work closely analysed for evidence of his attitude to academic life and to conversos, and his responses to technical challenges. A number of longstanding polemical issues related to Cervantes' life and creativity are closely examined here, throwing new light on his work as a whole. The book begins by exploring Cervantes' complex and ambivalent attitude towards academic life, which yielded comic portraits of students and many parodies of the academic tendencies of false praise, pedantry and pompousness. It goes on to consider the impact of the converso, or New Christian, on Spanish collective thinking, and Cervantes and Lope de Vega in particular; Old Christian versus New Christian rhetoric frequently determines the expression of such characters as Sancho Panza. An analysis of Cervantes' controversialinterpolation of stories in the first part of Don Quijote follows, and Professor Finello concludes by looking at the enigmatic discourse and dialogue of Don Quijote himself, elegant and harmonious despite the knight's apparent madness, arguing that since Quijote believes he is justified in imposing his chivalric values upon those who come into contact with him, he adjusts the situations in which he finds himself to the appropriate rhetoric of literary tradition. DOMINICK FINELLO is Professor of Spanish at Rider University.

This volume considers the influential revival of ancient philosophical skepticism in the 16th and early 17th centuries and investigates, from a comparative perspective, its reception in early modern English, Spanish and French drama, dedicating detailed readings to plays by Shakespeare, Calderón, Lope de Vega, Rotrou, Desfontaines, and Cervantes. While all the plays employ similar dramatic devices for "putting skepticism on stage", the study explores how these dramas, however, give different "answers" to the challenges posed by skepticism in relation to their respective historico-cultural and "ideological" contexts.

This first volume covers talks given in Italy, Norway and India. Krishnamurti begins with the statement "Friends, I should like you to make a living discovery, not a discovery induced by the description of others ... I am not going to try to describe what to me is truth, for that would be an impossible attempt. One cannot describe or give to another the fullness of an experience. Each one must live it for himself."

La prorrogación a la obediencia ha hecho que el mundo viva sumergido en una ola vertiginosa de engaños. Por desobediencia, sobre la tierra, se han levantado guerras, tumultos y destrucción; cuyo suelo grita de dolor y tiembla de espanto porque la vanidad la está destruyendo. Por consecuencia humana, la tierra está inficionada de maldad; el océano se ha salido de sus márgenes arropando la tierra, cuyas olas entran por toda la zona terrestre; pidiendo cuenta, la naturaleza azota la tierra con furor, extrayendo la profanación que está incrustada en su suelo. No obstante, desde el cielo, un ángel se encuentra observando a través de la ventana que da al mundo, la cual por impetuosidad, descorre la cortina del cielo, presenciando al mundo ahogarse en una ola de desastre; como acto de benevolencia, decide liberar a la humanidad del sufrimiento. Al recibir el ángel el permiso de descender a la tierra y cumplir su misión de amor, es preparada por Moisés (su guía y mentor), a través de sus enseñanzas, aprende como viven los terrestres, sus vicios, amores y secretos... y cuando baja arregla la vida de éstas personas, dejándoles, a su retorno al Cielo, el camino que necesitan seguir para encontrar la felicidad.
