Towse: views from the hill

[URL] World Cultures – an overview

Filed under: information,URL — Towse @ 7:57 pm

From WSU, the archived coursework and resources for the university freshman-level World Cultures class.

Texts, maps, &c. Ignore the “available for distance learning registation” [sic] notices and the links to discussion areas. This site is archival only.

Want to read up on Bhagavad-Gita? You’ll find yourself here. Click “contents” and you’ll get to an online text (a downloadable version is also available) or click “resources” and you’ll get a list of hyperlinks to other online texts, essays, commentaries and such like.

While away the afternoon.

No search functionality, alas.

(Found when searching for the etymology of “no retreat, no surrender” — the title of DeLay’s new book– which drew me toward Sparta, which brought me here. Could any of the erudite readers reading this tell me whether there was a Spartan rule which translated as “no retreat, no surrender”? Thanks much.)
