Extractions: Clifton Fadiman Clifton Fadiman, who died in 1999 at the age of 95, was an editor, essayist, anthologist and broadcast personality. He was an editor and judge for the Book-of-the-Month Club for over 50 years. He wrote for the Encyclopedia Britannica as well as numerous magazines and compiled over two dozen anthologies on subjects ranging from mathematics to poetry to the pun. He became very well known appearing on the radio quiz show Information, Please! The Lifetime Reading Plan was first published in 1960; the second and third editions, with revisions and amplifications, appeared in 1978 and 1986. Finally, with the assistance of John S. Major, Clifton Fadiman prepared The New Lifetime Reading Plan (4th edition, 1998). The book is divided into 133 sections with each section devoted to an author and one or more of that author's books. The books are presented in chronological order and discussed in two or three pages each. This 4th edition addresses works of greater diversity than any of the earlier editions. The authors' write in the preface - "Because our country is more profoundly multicultural than ever, and also because it is to everyone's personal advantage to cast as wide a net as possible in harvesting the world's cultural riches, the works suggested...(here)... now include Lady Murasaki along with Jane Austen, Tanizaki cheek-by-jowl with Faulkner, Ssu-ma Ch'ien as well as Thucydides. We think these additions to the Plan will enhance both your pleasure and your sense of achievement as a reader."

Extractions: Note: Chapter 4 "Hemp and Spirituality" will be of most interest to readers of this guide. It contains sections on Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, African traditions, Chinese Taoism, Japanese traditions, Christianity, Western occultism, Rastafarian movements, mystical sexuality, the Great Mother, and more. Excerpt(s): But more than happy accidents may explain hemp's sacred role. Many religious scholars suggest that the ancients would naturally have expected plants to hold the secrets of the heavens. Plants draw nourishment from both moisture above and soil below. As such, our predecessors may have viewed them as obvious intermediaries between heaven and earth and thus the perfect key to the divine mysteries. And because of hemp's multitude of practical uses, the ancients might have looked to it first. (page 75) The use of cannabis whether to commune with the divine or to heal or simply to celebrate was branded witchcraft, for which practitioners could be severely punished, even put to death. Among those charged was Joan of Arc, whom the inquisitors accused of using several witch herbs, including cannabis, to hear voices.

Extractions: Renaissance Lecture Notes Rome: Italians became the most urbanized, prosperous people of Europe even during the long depression of the fifteenth century. Popes during this time were politically corrupt and immoral, climaxing with Pope Alexander VI (1492-1503) (who was a member of the Borgia family) who was guilty of licentious dances and orgies with married women. As Pope, he had lavish parties, bullfights and Gangsterism flourished, with the Papacy aware of over 250 murders. Cesare Borgia (1476-1507), son of Alexander VI, believed in Machiavellian style rule. Successor to Alexander VI was Pope Julius II Papa Terrible, Alexanders enemy. Pope Julius was a warrior-pope. Love of war; inspired fear and awe. Commissioned great artists like Michelangelo. Naples and Sicily: History of Naples and Sicily was one of conquest, ruled by Muslims and Normans in Middle Ages and later by France. Revolt against French started when a French soldier molested a young married woman, led to War of the Sicilian Vespers which separated Naples from Sicily. Naples was ruled by the French and Sicily by itself. Eventually, the region was taken over by the Spanish.

Eponyms gigantic king in the novel Gargantua by French satirist Francois Rabelais (c.1494 inthe poem Syphilis seve Morbus Gallicus by Girolamo Fracastro (14831553). http://users.tinyonline.co.uk/gswithenbank/eponyms.htm
Extractions: Eponyms An eponym is a word derived from the name of a real, fictional, mythical or spurious character or person. Most eponyms originate from a person's surname: boycott , for instance, from the Irish landlord Captain Charles Cunningham Boycott; dahlia , from the Swedish botanist Anders Dahl; the sousaphone , from the American bandmaster John Philip Sousa; and volt , from the Italian physicist Count Alessandro Volta. Many eponymous words come from literary, biblical or mythological sources: malapropism , from Mrs Malaprop in Sheridan's The Rivals Dickensian , from the English writer Charles Dickens; as old as Methuselah , from the age of the Old Testament patriarch; and aphrodisiac , from the Greek goddess of love and beauty Aphrodite. There are thousands of eponyms in everyday use in English today and study of them yields a fascinating insight into the rich heritage of the world's most popular language and its development. Here are some more examples of names that have been immortalised in such a way.

Extractions: When seeking to provide even a brief history of Satanism, difficulties immediately arise. It appears that much of the historical material that we have in this regard is based on sensational accounts that make truth difficult to discern from fiction. Since most of the accounts of traditional Satanism are sensationalized or, as Melton stated, created for self-serving purposes by the Christian church, it appears that the type of Satanism that involves worship of the Christian Satan, ritual abuse, and a parody of especially Roman Catholicism, is much rarer during any time in history than has commonly been assumed. Furthermore, as we will note later, the belief that modern Satanists are involved in Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) as part of their belief system has been thoroughly discredited. Strictly speaking, what Drury and Tillett have referred to as secular Satanism has its historical origins in Anton LaVey and the founding of the Church of Satan in 1966. Those involved in LaVeyan Satanism, and most other forms of Satanism today do not believe in a literal Satan, nor do they worship anyone, other than, perhaps, themselves.

Extractions: "The Renaissance" connotes the new life (la vita nuova) that began to flower in fourteenth-century Italy, although its seeds are found in the thirteenth century. Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) and Giotto di Bondone (ca. 1267-1337) impressed Giovanni Boccaccio (1313-75) respectively as reviving literature and painting. Other writers of the time also saw a renewal in the visual arts and lit-erature. Theirs, they affirmed, was as an age of reawakening. The term "La Rinascita" (rebirth) was coined by Giorgio Vasari (1511-74)-painter, archi-tect, art histo-rian-to describe developments in the visual arts in Italy that brought art closer to nature. As in the visual arts, so in literature, an enhanced interest in nature is evident. Also evident is an increased interest in human emotion. Most dramatic in the Italian Renaissance is the powerful interest in the culture of Greece and Rome. Convinced that the age before theirs had corrupted the classical heritage, and eager to revive it, some writers urged concentrated atten-tion on the rhetoric of Cicero and Quintilian. This interest in artful, graceful ex-pression is emblematically suggested by Petrarch's (1304-74) recommendation that readers close their Aristotle and open their Cicero. Why? Latin usage, Humanists charged, had sunk beneath contempt. Consider the following ex-ample, an English translation of a Latin original:
