Arts & Humanities - 21 April 2007

I would appreciate someone's help in selling a variety of second hand (almost new) books. I have tried and did not like ebay and amazon. Are there any other reliable ones?? Books are based in UK but shipping to Europe or USA is fine.
Very grateful for any recommendations!

That's like asking Where a White Rabbit would get a waist coat in the first place, let alone a watch. Fantasy is fantasy.

So what does that mean? Can anybody tell me I don't quite get it? It is true that fantasy is fantasy until or of course until anyone turns it into reality or and could it be the opposite way could one turn reality into a fantasy, just trying to figure this out?

I'm doing a presentation for my history class about weapons and technology in WWII and how is it different from previous wars like WWI. I need to think in terms of how it was used and what tactics were used and how it effected the American economy. I hope that some of you can help be before I have to present on Monday(4/23/07) Thank you. :]

I'm talking about extraneous things--a pretty skirt, a scoop of ice cream. Or even an expensive college education. It seems so unfair to say, "my happiness is more important than your life."

But the implications of accepting that you shouldn't spend money on yourself are tricky. Does that mean that the purpose of life is to help others? That buying anything that isn't completely necessary for life is morally wrong? Where do you draw the line? And why?

i have said to my friend that i think y!ans contains nothing but pointless discussion but i spent all day yesterday and today on it,
i felt like i was achieving something by using it but as soon as i leave it i come back to a more realistic view.

am i just caught in a haze of deception brought on by an addiction to y!ans and if so do you think that y!ans is dangerous to the mind?

(Provide links wherever possible)
For those who know of/stand for any of the most head-boggling questions in the philosophical aspect of aesthetics, can you tell me more about what art means to you? what functions and purpose do you think art has? can we construct knowledge from art if art is strictly subjective? There can be no guidelines to what we can call art, and so how do we judge art?

People say "go with the flow". I would like to know first of all what that flow is according to YOUR experience, and how YOU go with the flow.

What would make a minster leave the pulpit, for a life of sin to fornicate, be married 3 times and try to search for his fourth wife. What do you think ? I am truly baffled.

Myth: Europeans physically enslaved Africans or hired mercenaries who captured people for export or that African rulers were "Holocaust abettors" who were themselves to blame for the slave trade.
Fact: Europeans did engage in some slave raiding; the majority of people who were transported to the Americas were enslaved by Africans in Africa.
