Through Flarius’ histories, Ellis exposes new perspectives on the life of Jesus. Ellis asserts that King Jesus and Queen Mary Magdalene were actually wealthy owners of a city-state in eastern Syrio-Jordan and had a private army. The Romans wanted to impose taxes on the city-state and provoked the Jewish Rebellion, which King Jesus fought and lost. He was crucified, reprieved, banished and exiled to Britain, a remote Roman military outpost. There, King Jesus became famous once again, but the locals called him and his disciples King Arthur and the Twelve Knights of the Last Supper Table.

This heresy was a penitent movement, based on a Babylonian Cult of the Dead. Their bizarre public spectacles – still seen today in the streets of Europe – include grisly acts of self-mortification, but these are simply smokescreens to draw attention away from the movement’s true workings. THE COVERT POLITICAL POWER OF CHRISTIAN PENITENTS The authors led a team of researchers tracking this movement from the Middle East to Italy, Germany and France. Ultimately, they realized that the mystery of Rennes-le-Château, linked with the extraordinary fortune of Bérenger Saunière, is another episode in the long and intriguing tale of this heretical penetential movement. The Rise reveals the long-secret battles between the Church hierarchy and various movements that have tried to penetrate and take it over – sometimes successfully! and Sarah Fishberg are French journalists living in Normandy. They spearhead a team of international researchers investigating the story of the penitential network.

But in truth, the Priory is an elite occult political organization, part of a shadowy world of secret societies which have attempted to influence governments and the fates of nations for centuries.

This original and innovative book embodies traditions that have evolved over thousands of years and which are slowly vanishing. This is a lavish production and an invaluable historical record that combines anthropology and popular culture. “I chose to dedicate these pictures and stories to the tribes people themselves, in the hope that their way of life and works of art can be preserved through the protection afforded through public recognition. I offer this book as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, recognizing in the lives of these tribes that essential strength resides, and the endurance of their culture is insured.” –David Howard, from the Dedication David Howard’s work has been published in 33 periodicals, exhibited in 39 group shows, 23 one-man shows, and collected by 11 museums. His photography exhibitions in France, Mexico, Japan, Ireland, the Philippines, and the US have established him as an international artist, and his experimental films and video documentaries have also won recognition at numerous institutions and museums.

When an entrepreneur wanted to start a high-speed, inter-island ferry to connect Oahu with her neighbor islands, the idea was hijacked by a corporation with military ties to become a prototype of America’s seabased military strategy for the 21st Century. The project rode in on a wave of deception and corruption – from the governor’s office, to the Hawaii Superferry corporation. INSIDE STORY OF THE RECENT HAWAIIAN UPRISING But the Superferry deal was never approved by the people of Hawai‘i, and this galvanized Hawaiians. On Kauai, citizens took to surfboards and effectively blocked the vessel from entering the harbor, among other emotional protests. Koohan Paik’s films, The Superferry Chronicles which focus on environmental and cultural issues, and her YouTube film, Discover Kauai, inspired the environmental movement on Kauai, where she lives and works as a media-literacy educator. founder and director of the International Forum on Globalization and founder and former director of the Public Media Center, works only for nonprofits.

Nation of Angela By Sophie Toulouse “What is there to do when you can have it all?”– Jean Baudrillard The most literary contribution to the 36 Chambers series is Nation of Angela (N.o.A.), a multimedia project. N.o.A. is a utopian island where communal ideals coexist with fashion, glamour, and luxury – a lost paradise, a personal and political arcadia. But tensions reveal themselves in the most important event on the island, the battle between the N.o.A. army and the army of Fat Elvis. Angela’s citizens are post-modern magicians, with flat stomachs, Botoxed faces, full lips and silicon breasts. They are plastic bodies, transformed into parcels, whose main objective is to seduce the consumer. These irresistible packages conceal lethal weapons, an alchemy of fake pleasures, always affordable, including potions of sensuality for synthetic and illusory journeys. But it is useless to follow the instructions and “use with caution.” WHAT ARE YOU DOING AFTER THE ORGY? Sophie Toulouse is a French artist who mounts large-scale visual installations, created mostly digitally. She does commercial work in print and films and her clients include IBM, Galleries Lafayette, Hugo Boss, Nike and Universal. Her story is inspired by Kurt Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle, and the writing of Guy Debord. She lives in Paris.

Their personal history is inseparable from the larger History that is played out on the world’s stage: families are uprooted, relationships fail, yet life goes on as it always does. The father tells his son: “Nothing’s been new in this world for more than two billion years, it’s all just variations on the same theme of carbon, hydrogen, helium, and nitrogen.” His point is that though Prague has experienced monarchy, democracy, fascism, communism, and democratic capitalism – as wars, putsches, and revolutions have come and gone – what really has changed? Emil Hakl was born in Prague in 1958. A graduate of the Jaroslav Jelek Conservatorium, he was a manual laborer under the Communist regime.

A chaos of individual fragments are brought together so sharply and meticulously that the flickering before the reader’s eyes unexpectedly takes shape as an elegiac underpainting.”– Basler Zeitung Aquamarine is a novel comprised of seven tales exploring the unfolding of an idea, taking some “blue, yellow and beiges, or legcolored ideas” and wrapping them around like a coiled garden hose with all its awkward convolutions, each loop having its own radius but belonging to the same loop: revolution in every sense. Aquamarine, a fluid like water, is a compound of two elements: language and imagery flowing over Mexican landscapes and cities, in both external and internal geographies. The revolution is the river: the people, and places come and go, are drawn from the ether about us, and disappear again into nothingness, which is a something-ness – if the narrator chooses it to be. was born 1963 in Germany.

The illegitimate son of an aristocratic politician and an actress, Meyrink established himself as a banker in Prague, while achieving notoriety as a dandy, rake, and sportsman. About to commit suicide, he chanced on a pamphlet about life after death, put his revolver away and started a lifelong interest in the occult. He unmasked false mediums and experimented with alchemy, drugs and clairvoyance until an affair of honor led him to challenge the entire Prague officer corps, setting machinations in motion which resulted in his being wrongly imprisoned. His bank then collapsed and he became a writer. So many stories collected around him, it is often difficult to distinguish fact from fiction, legend from life. This remarkable life of Meyrink allows him, and those who knew him, to speak in their own words wherever possible. an academic with a special interest in Austrian literature and culture, has been a freelance literary translator since 1995, is a Dedalus Editorial Director and is responsible for Dedalus’ translation program.
