Kalevalathe Epic Poem of Finland (annotated). E-book. Formato EPUB Elias Lönnrot - Skyline, 2017 -
In primeval times, a maiden, Beauteous Daughter of the Ether, Passed for ages her existence In the great expanse of heaven, O'er the prairies yet enfolded. Wearisome the maiden growing, Her existence sad and hopeless, Thus alone to live for ages In the infinite expanses Of the air above the sea-foam, In the far outstretching spaces, In a solitude of ether, She descended to the ocean, Waves her coach, and waves her pillow. Thereupon the rising storm-wind Flying from the East in fierceness, Whips the ocean into surges, Strikes the stars with sprays of ocean Till the waves are white with fervor.

Insieme alle vive descrizioni del paesaggio, di foreste, di laghi e di cascate, sono stati mantenuti i tratti dei tre personaggi più espressivi dell’anima e dell’indole del popolo finnico: il vecchio Väinämöinen, «il cantore sempiterno», con la glorificazione della musica (nel runo della Kantele, XLI); Ilmarinen, il fabbro eterno, l’artefice operoso ed ingegnoso, tardo nella decisione ma poi tenace nell’azione; Lemminkäinen, scapestrato e aggressivo, avventuroso e sempre in cerca di risse e di amores, il Don Giovanni iperboreo, «la creazione più originale e multiforme della Musa finnica»; ac anto ai quali spicca la dolce e mesta figura di Aino, la cupa e tragica di Kullervo; e risuonano quegli inimitabili «canti nuziali» (XXII-XXIV) che abbiamo riportati quasi per intero come saggio della ricchissima lirica amorosa e familiare,dal Lönnrot stesso raccolta nell’altro «corpus poeticum» Kanteletar (L’arpa finnica).
Mysteries of the ancient Kabbalah. E-book. Formato EPUB Elias Gewurz - Skyline, 2014 -
The Qabalah, playing as it does such an important part in the unveiling of the Scriptures, must be understood by those who wish to enter into the details and comprehend fully the methods used by the Qabalists. Hence the first and most important question to be answered is "What is the Qabalah?"It is easy to give an explanation of the meaning of the word itself, for its root is QBL, which means "to receive," hence the Qabalah is the "received" doctrine, the esoteric side of the scriptures, the Doctrine of the Heart, in contradistinction to the doctrine of the eye, the inner Truth as opposed to the outer form.There is, however, no Book of the Qabalah, no manuscript called "The Qabalah," but many manuscripts and books have been written based upon qabalistic knowledge, and these different works are known collectively as the Qabalah. They are, however, merely opinions and statements embodying the ideas of the Hidden Wisdom, which has ever been taught to companies of students by the teachers of the Secret Doctrine though seldom written down.
