The Richest Man in Babylon. George S. Clason

The Richest Man in Babylon. George S. Clason

I'm enjoying "The Richest Man in Babylon" by George S. Clason... a classic book on wealth and finance.



The Richest Man in Babylon is considered as the greatest of all inspirational works on the subject of thrift, financial planning, and personal wealth. Revealed inside are the secrets to acquiring money, keeping money, and making money earn more money. Providing financial wisdom through parables, 'The Richest Man in Babylon' was originally a set of pamphlets, written by the author and distributed by banks and insurance companies. These pamphlets were later bundled together, giving birth to a book. In this new rendering by Charles Conrad, the classic tale is retold in clear, simple language for today's readers. These fascinating and informative stories set you on a sure path to prosperity and its accompanying joys. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: George Samuel Clason was born in Louisiana, Missouri, on November 7, 1874. He attended the University of Nebraska and served in the United States Army during the Spanish-American War. Beginning a long career in publishing, he founded the Clason Map Company of Denver, Colorado, and published the first road atlas of the United States and Canada. In 1926, he issued the first of a famous series of pamphlets on thrift and financial success, using parables set in ancient Babylon to make each of his points. These were distributed in large quantities by banks and insurance companies and became familiar to millions, the most famous being 'The Richest Man in Babylon', the parable from which the present volume takes its title. These 'Babylonian parables' have become a modern inspirational classic.

The Epic of Gilgamesh. Ancient Literature. Babylon

The Epic of Gilgamesh. Ancient Literature. Babylon

I'm currently taking a break from all this modernity and revisiting my old friends, Gilgamesh and Enkidu...



Gilgamesh, King of Uruk, and his companion Enkidu are the only heroes to have survived from the ancient literature of Babylon, immortalized in this epic poem that dates back to the third millennium BC. Together they journey to the Spring of Youth, defeat the Bull of Heaven and slay the monster Humbaba. When Enkidu dies, Gilgamesh’s grief and fear of death are such that they lead him to undertake a quest for eternal life. A timeless tale of morality, tragedy and pure adventure, The Epic of Gilgamesh is a landmark literary exploration of man’s search for immortality.
N. K. Sandars’s lucid, accessible translation is prefaced by a detailed introduction that examines the narrative and historical context of the work. In addition, there is a glossary of names and a map of the Ancient Orient.

The Book of Daniel (2013): Biblical Ancient Babylon

     Directed by Anna Zielinski, with a screenplay by Chuck Konzelman based on the Biblical tale, The Book of Daniel (2013) was made on a very limited budget… and it shows. The story finds Daniel, recalling the story of four kings in Ancient Babylon, following his 70-year servitude to King Nebuchadnezzar in 605 B.C. The effects, costumes and props are all a bit hokey and many of the performances are amateurish. However, as far as inspirational tales go, many elements hit the mark… particularly in the Lion's Den scene. Robert Miano delivers the best performance in the film as the elderly Daniel. Lance Hendriksen is good as Cyrus. The rest of the cast, all unknowns, are hit or miss.
