This third book in the Cool Memories series is culled from Baudrillard’s notebooks in the period when he was composing The Illusion of the End and The Perfect Crime. In it, he resumes his investigation of the meta-metaphysics of objects. Like its predecessors, the book is a work of brief meditations, of poetic musings: in a word, of fragments.

Life Fragments A Story of Past Lives


Free Download Stephen Sipila, "Life Fragments: A Story of Past Lives"
English | ASIN : B0CWD9QWT6 | 2024 | 74 pages | AZW3 | 246 KB
One night in July 2023 the author of this novella had trouble sleeping and found themselves in a state of trance where they kept recalling numerous past life memories. I then decided to turn this into a novella, making each memory its own short little chapter, little vignettes. This novella is essentially a series of fragmented memories from numerous different past lives spanning the entire history of the world, from places as exotic as ancient Rome, China, Mongolia, Ehypt, Africa, the Middle Ages, the Ice Age, Native American lives as well as more contemporary times that give an overview about how past life memories work, going back and forth between one life to another, showing the good, the bad the ugly, the simple the mundane and the profound all in one. It essentially amounts to a brief spiritual autobiography showing the development of one soul over the course of several thousand years in fairly random order that give an overview of development of one soul over the course of human history.

English | September 24, 2024 | ISBN: 1503632504 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 1.8 MB
In 2012, Steve Green, billionaire and president of the Hobby Lobby chain of craft stores, announced a recent purchase of a Biblical artefact―a fragment of papyrus, just discovered, carrying lines from Paul’s letter to the Romans, and dated to the second century CE. Noted scholar Roberta Mazza was stunned. When was this piece discovered, and how could Green acquire such a rare item? The answers, which Mazza spent the next ten years uncovering, came as a shock: the fragment had come from a famous collection held at Oxford University, and its rightful owners had no idea it had been sold.

Fragments of the Holocaust The Amsterdam Hollandsche Schouwburg as a Site of Memory


Free Download David Duindam, "Fragments of the Holocaust: The Amsterdam Hollandsche Schouwburg as a Site of Memory "
English | ISBN: 9462986886 | 2018 | 236 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Why do we attach so much value to sites of Holocaust memory, if all we ever encounter are fragments of a past that can never be fully comprehended? David Duindam examines how the Hollandsche Schouwburg, a former theater in Amsterdam used for the registration and deportation of nearly 50,000 Jews, fell into disrepair after World War II before it became the first Holocaust memorial museum of the Netherlands. Fragments of the Holocaust: The Amsterdam Hollandsche Schouwburg as a Site of Memory combines a detailed historical study of the postwar period of this site with a critical analysis of its contemporary presentation by placing it within international debates concerning memory, emotionally fraught heritage and museum studies. A case is made for the continued importance of the Hollandsche Schouwburg and other comparable sites, arguing that these will remain important in the future as indexical fragments where new generations can engage with the memory of the Holocaust on a personal and affective level.
