0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Penguin Books, 1973.
Description 108pSilver spine

The child psychiatrist, Dr. Martin Dysart, tries to understand the cause of the boy's actions while wrestling with his own sense of purpose. Other religious and ritual sacrifice themes are discussed, including the manner in which the main character Alan Strang constructs a personal theology involving the horses and the supreme godhead, "Equus". In reference to the play's classical structure, themes and characterization, Shaffer has discussed the conflict between Apollonian and Dionysian values and systems in human life.

Kon-Tiki: Across the Pacific by raft / Heyerdahl, Thor 1973  Book
Heyerdahl, Thor Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Edition 2009
Publication New York, Simon and Schuster, 1973.
Description 240pBlack and Yellow Spine
Series Enriched Classic
Summary/Abstract Kon-Tiki is the record of an astonishing adventure -- a journey of 4,300 nautical miles across the Pacific Ocean by raft. Intrigued by Polynesian folklore, biologist Thor Heyerdahl suspected that the South Sea Islands had been settled by an ancient race from thousands of miles to the east, led by a mythical hero, Kon-Tiki. He decided to prove his theory by duplicating the legendary voyage. On April 28, 1947, Heyerdahl and five other adventurers sailed from Peru on a balsa log raft. After three months on the open sea, encountering raging storms, whales, and sharks, they sighted land -- the Polynesian island of Puka Puka. Translated into sixty-five languages, Kon-Tiki is a classic, inspiring tale of daring and courage -- a magnificent saga of men against the sea.
