The Banned Classics: One-Page Classics Vol. II

BOOK DESCRIPTION

The stories in this collection meet two criteria: that they are 'classics', and that they may be considered 'banned' literature, for various reasons. However, the author added an additional stipulation, that he must have crafted them himself. Although some will see traces of traditional storytelling (mafia-stories, science fiction, horror, tales of the macabre are just part of this eclectic collection), the common theme is the unique criterion of classical literature. There is greater emphasis on storytelling than in the original One-Page Classics. This volume will be updated when the author has added additional stories. Currently there are 35 Stories, with a brief Introduction.

It is now available from Amazon HERE.

1-Page-Classics

Author: Nathan Coppedge

Book Description:

1-Page-Classics is written by a dimensional philosopher. It includes renditions of mysteries and philosophies ranging from the Tao Te Ching, to the Orphic Mysteries, Mandate of Heaven, and the nature of Ambergris. It also has literary merits through the author’s interesting accounts of prior lives as Rip Van Winkle, the Burner of Alexandria, and Pippin son of William Tell. Valuable for its eclectics, it is also valuable for its philosophical accounts of Modal Realism, Wittgenstein’s Tractatus, and the stoic manual The Enchiridion; Topics are chosen for their integrity as well as broadness; there is even a translation of Simone d’ Beauvoir’s The Second Sex; The author also takes a unique viewpoint on topics ranging from Archeology to Mathematics, with many of his works having original intellectual merits. The book includes potential study packages such as Cultures, Logic, and Miniature Linguistic Treatises. It also includes writings on the subject of Wonders of the World and Signs of the Zodiac; Compact, complex, and alphabetized, calling this book intellectual would be an understatement, but it has value as pleasure reading too.
