Bøger af Anthony Blake

Jamais je n'aurais pensé un jour écrire un livre avec autant de passion et ce qui m'a poussé à user de la plume.A soixante deux ans dont cinquante ans consacrés à l'art de la magie et plus de quarante années de spectacles de scène, j'ai jugé opportun que le temps était maintenant venu de partager avec vous le bilan d'une vie d'artiste bien remplie.Ce premier ouvrage est une autobiographie ou pour utiliser un terme plus adapté, une rétrospective concise de mon parcours d'artiste magicien, agrémenté d'un mini album photos de mes rencontres avec des illusionnistes célèbres, de l'histoire de la magie à travers les âges, de quelques conseils et de termes techniques utilisés par les magiciens sous forme de vocabulaire, comment et où apprendre la magie, de la vie des magiciens illustres, de la magie à Las Vegas et d'un bonus etc. Tout commence par un rêve

A Clean, Well-Lighted Place isn't a stage for the same old names. Instead, this collection takes inspiring poetry and short fiction where others aren't looking for it-the bottom of the slush pile. After months of reading, the editors have distilled the work of these writers-next-door down to the most shocking and evocative pieces. From award-winning contributors Diane Lefer and Michael James Rizza to newcomers Jeffrey Haynes and Jared Salzano, the work is as diverse as it is brilliant. The speakers of these stories and poems get high on lotus flowers, become fur trappers in a post-apocalyptic America, and miss free-throws around Harlem. Each entry is a moment of our lives both powerfully and poignantly told.

The 20th International Humanities Conference - All & Everything 2015 convened on Wednesday, April 29th to Sunday May 3rd, 2015 at the Van der Valk Hotel, Hoorn, NH, The Netherlands. The conference was attended by 47 delegates travelling from Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Norway, Russia, Sweden, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. From the Conference's inception, its members have worked toward making this "gathering of the Companions of the Book" to become more and more just that - a gathering of people from all over the world who come together for the purpose of "fathoming the gist" of Gurdjieff's writings, of sharing our insights and experiences, our questions, and our efforts to understand and grow into becoming remarkable men and women. The final session of the conference on Sunday morning, traditionally entitled "Where do we go from here," provided an opportunity to discuss the achievements of the conference and the challenges facing its future editions.
