One of the Grimm Household Tale favorites. Jacob 1785-1863 and Wilhelm 1786-1859 Grimm 1786-1859 The Brothers Grimm were figures of major importance for folklore studies throughout Europe but it is only relevant here to speak of their impact in England. Their famous joint collection of fairytales the Kinder- und Hausm�rchen appeared in 1812-14 and was first translated into English in 1823. They are now thoroughly absorbed into the part-oral part-printed traditions of English children; they include such famous stories as �The Frog Prince� �Snow White� �Rapunzel� �Little Red Riding Hood� also told by Perrault �Hansel and Gretel� and �Rumpelstiltskin�.

Brown David Jay
Frontiere della coscienza psichedelica. Conversazioni con Hofmann, Grof, Strassman, Narby e altri maestri del movimento psichedelico
br. Questo libro racchiude una di quelle idee che, nella loro semplicità, si rivelano bellissime e vincenti. Brown ha infatti scelto di radunare in un solo volume tutti gli aspetti della cultura psichedelica - dalla musica alla psicologia, dalla meditazione allo spionaggio americano, dalla chimica alla botanica - per consentire al lettore una vera immersione in questo mondo, di cui tanto si parla e poco si conosce. Tra il 2006 e il 2014, ha incontrato e intervistato i grandi protagonisti della storia della psichedelia, da Hofmann (inventore dell'LSD) a Posford (noto musicista psy-trance), passando per personaggi del calibro di Grof, Narby, Strassman e molti altri, ciascuno dei quali ha aperto il suo armadio dei ricordi e condiviso un sapere prezioso. Nello sfogliare questo libro ci si ritrova catapultati in un universo fatto di ricerche, sperimentazioni, esplorazione delle potenzialità e dei rischi delle sostanze psicotrope, impedimenti legali, blocchi governativi e perfino indagini della CIA.

Brugger Karl
Cronaca di Akakor. Mito e saga di un antico popolo dell'Amazzonia
ill. Karl Brugger riporta un racconto, trasmessogli oralmente, che dopo dubbi iniziali gli è parso autentico. Akakor, situata tra Brasile e Perù, sta aspettando di essere scoperta. Il libro racconta la storia dei popoli che abitavano la città e risale a 12.000 anni fa. Finora non si conosce data più remota di una testimonianza trasmessaci di una civiltà altamente evoluta. Tatunca Nara, sovrano e principe del popolo degli Ugha Mongulala, racconta la gloriosa ma anche tragica storia del suo popolo. Ci parla di una civiltà molto evoluta, fondata su un sapere divino e, sotto molti aspetti, superiore a quello dei Maya e degli Inca.

Brugnera Michela; Lenarda Alessandro
Dalle maschere al carnevale. Curiosità, storia e tradizioni
brossura Il Carnevale è la festa nella quale tutto è permesso, anche quello di rifiutare la propria identità per cercarne un'altra attraverso la scelta di una maschera che può soddisfare e realizzare i nostri intimi desideri rendendoci ciò che vorremmo essere. Ma è solo all'interno di una collettività, che naturalmente spinge al confronto, che può realizzarsi l'affermazione di essere "altro" da sé. Per un breve attimo tutti si trasformano in personaggi effimeri ma eterni nella loro chimera, consci di poter vivere solo e unicamente all'interno della grande illusione che si rappresenta sul grande palcoscenico del Carnevale. Poi quando le luci si abbasseranno, le maschere verranno riposte e la vita di tutti i giorni riprenderà il sopravvento, rimarrà in noi ciò che è l'essenza della maschera, ciò per la quale è stata creata: l'idea di libertà.
