Synopsis Beyond the Tombs by : David Kolzion
Having been but a tiny piece of 'rock', taken out of all sorts of men's 'paradises' to be hewn by my YHVH-God's fingers under his Sovereign Rulership, I was taught lots of things during my three-and-a-half-year stay on Pulau Galang-the Blue Paradise's Gate. Beyond the Tombs is a three-book compilation of previous works from author David Kolzion, a former university lecturer in Vietnam. A refugee from Vietnam and Indonesia, Kolzion came to Australia in 1993. The Voice of God's Rock tells of his thirty-year spiritual journey that spans three countries of refuge from 1975-2005. His unforgettable autobiography, Memoir 1975-2005, is full of intriguing and historical details from the last thirty years of his life. Kolzion's As the Wind Blowing forms an appropriate closure in this postmodern world of political intrigue, military violence, and global terrorism. Beyond the Tombs combines all three books and becomes a spiritual concerto to those children "risen out of rocks for Abraham". For over twelve years, Kolzion has intensely studied the ancient Hebrew scriptures and offers his wisdom to enlighten those hungry for fulfillment.

Synopsis The Tomb and Beyond by : Naguib Kanawati
Provides a much needed summary overview of the key elements of Egyptian tomb form, use and decoration over time. The tombs, with their scenes, inscriptions, objects and human remains, represent our richest source of information for the understanding of Egyptian beliefs and practices, art and architecture and of many aspects of daily life. Detailed, scholarly reports on individual cemeteries and tombs are abundant but in this fully illustrated, more general work, reproduced in this facsimile edition, Kanawati provides an invaluable introduction to, and overview of, the key elements of Egyptian tombs from Predynastic to the Late Period. The Egyptian dead enjoyed a continued existence in both the Netherworld and the land of the living – the individual possessing multiple entities that experienced different destinies after death. The tomb provided an everlasting earthly dwelling and consisted of a chapel above ground where the deceased’s cult was maintained and offerings presented, and a burial chamber for the body. Either or both could be richly decorated with paintings, reliefs and inscriptions. Kanawati describes and illustrates the principal forms and features of architecture and nature and subject matter of decoration and demonstrates how tomb design and decoration changed through time.

Synopsis Tombs of the Ancient Poets by : Nora Goldschmidt
Tombs of the Ancient Poets explores the ways in which the tombs of the ancient poets - real or imagined - act as crucial sites for the reception of Greek and Latin poetry. Drawing together a range of examples, it makes a distinctive contribution to the study of literary reception by focusing on the materiality of the body and the tomb, and the ways in which they mediate the relationship between classical poetry and its readers. From the tomb of the boy poet Quintus Sulpicius Maximus, which preserves his prize-winning poetry carved on the tombstone itself, to the modern votive offerings left at the so-called 'Tomb of Virgil'; from the doomed tomb-hunting of long-lost poets' graves, to the 'graveyard of the imagination' constructed in Hellenistic poetry collections, the essays collected here explore the position of ancient poets' tombs in the cultural imagination and demonstrate the rich variety of ways in which they exemplify an essential mode of the reception of ancient poetry, poised as they are between literary reception and material culture.
