The Iliad (c. 750 BCE) is one of the oldest works of literature in existence and continues to stir the imagination of contemporary readers thanks to its epic depictions of martial prowess, heroism, and tragedy.Aiming to bring the legendary story to a new audience, Samuel Butler eschewed the traditional poetical style in favor of a prose translation more akin to that used in the 18th and 19th centuries without losing any of the beauty of the original. The narrative details the fall of Troy and the many tragedies that befall both sides of the war. Heroes clash in sweeping and brutal battle as the Gods watch on in delight, Kings rise and fall by their honor-bound mandates while their men toil in the mundanity of war, and lovers die desperately trying to turn the tides of fate. The Iliad is a meditation on fate, honor, and heroism, painting a world in which the chaos of humanity's clashing vanities means something greater to not only ourselves, but the Gods above.Since our inception in 202

Playing is an essential part of psychotherapy, and sandplay in particular allows for the development of an active tie between the therapist and the patient. This book analyses the elements that are introduced into therapy through sandplay: implicit memory, the embodied self and empathy, as well as the relationship that is created through the process of this type of therapy. Napoliello focuses on sandplay, but the use of the ideas here extends to the importance of activating a dimension of play in a patient as a way to bridge a link between the conscious and subconscious, on the importance of body language and using past experience to decipher the meaning of physical movements.
