Description
The third book in this four-book series offers practical and illuminating insights into how to fathom the gist of Gurdjieff's masterpiece. The intention is that it will serve the serious reader to delve deeper into Gurdjieff's remarkable book. In the previous books in this series teh author described and explained how to approach The Tales. In this volume he demonstrates teh techniques he advocates.
The book provides an in-depth analysis of the first half of The Arousing of Thought, the first chapter of Beelzebub's Tales.
- Why does The Tales have two titles?
- Why is the "ALL" on the original cover of the book capitalized?
- Who were the Ancient Toulousites?
- Exactly what is that crazy lame goat,
- or the midwife's lozenge of cocaine for that matter.
The suggested answers that this book provides are intriguing. But perhaps of greater value to the reader is the author's explanation of Gurdjieff's grammar of associations--the grammar he employed to write the book in his "ignorance" of the "bon ton literary language of the intelligentsia."
