Na alcateia, seu nome de criança era Wepwawet. Com os humanos, seu nome de monstro era An-Pu. Mas nós só lembramos de seu nome como um deus: Anúbis. An-Pu, o deus mais carismático e popular do Egito, amadureceu pelo sofrimento e pela observação do mundo. Tornou-se o julgador dos mortos após a guerra de unificação do Baixo e Alto Egito sob o reinado de Narmer, o lendário Rei-Escorpião. O Papiro de Wadjet é um livro de Nicole Sigaud, que mergulha o leitor no mundo fantástico da gênese do deus Anúbis. Do surgimento do meio-humano, adotado por uma alcatéia na Índia, até a sua elevação ao mundo dos mortos por meio da tutela de um djinn. Nicole Sigaud, estudiosa de grimórios antigos, magia medieval e da Antiguidade, incluindo as compilações do Livro dos Mortos egípcio e o Enuma Elish sumério, reuniu as peças do quebra-cabeça da história dessa criança incomum, trazendo à luz da modernidade um dos mistérios sobre a vida de An-Pu.

For public and school libraries, this resource reflects recent changes in Library of Congress subject headings and authority files, and provides bilingual information essential to reference librarians and catalogers serving Spanish speakers. Libraries must provide better access to their collections for all users, including Spanish-language materials. The American Library Association has recognized this increasing need. Subject Headings for School and Public Libraries: Bilingual Fourth Edition is the only resource available that provides both authorized and reference entries in English and Spanish. A first-check source for the most frequently used headings needed in school and public libraries, this book incorporates thousands of new and revised entries to assist in applying LCSH and CSH headings. Of the approximately 30,000 headings listed, most include cross-references, and all of the cross-reference terms are translated. MARC21 tags are included for all authorized entries to simplify entering them into computerized catalogs, while indexes to all headings and free-floating subdivisions are provided in translation from Spanish to English. This book gives librarians access to accurate translations of the subject terms printed in books published and cataloged in English-speaking countries—invaluable information in settings with Spanish-speaking patrons.

The beautiful nonsense sayings in clothes of anti-reason, the koans, are for me the biggest attraction of Zen. However, my readings of texts about Zen philosophy have taught me that koans, being the most attractive part of this peculiar subject, is the less abundant. With the idea of making the most entertaining and instructive part of Zen wisdom accessible to readers like myself, I have collected all the dialogues, riddles and paradoxical phrases I've found in the many books that I've read about Zen and surrounding areas and I have written them down in a simply way, avoiding metaphysical adornments. The result, gentle reader, is this book that you have in your hands.

"Animation: Critical and Primary Sources is a major multi-volume work of reference that brings together seminal writings on animation studies. Gathering historical and contemporary texts from a wide-ranging number of sources, the volumes provide a key resource in understanding and studying the past and future directions of animation studies. The four volumes thematically trace animation studies from its many definitions, or a lack thereof, to the institutional nature of animation production, to establishing greater space within animation discourse for the consideration of broadcast and interactive animation, and finally, giving greater contextual understanding of the field of animation studies, by focusing on 'Authorship', 'Genre', 'Identity Politics', and 'Spectatorship', thus enabling readers to engage more deeply with the ideas discussed in the final volume. Ordering the collection in this way avoids imposing an overly simplistic chronological framework, thereby allowing debates that have developed over years (and even decades) to stand side by side. Each volume is separately introduced and the essays structured into coherent sections on specific themes"--
