Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.

For Mature Audiences Only. These two tales take an untraditional look at cute and cuddly barnyard animals. Wilson and Savory's "That's Some Pig" combines a dysfunctional family, stuffed animals, disembowelment and green jello. Lee and Pelan's "Charlie's Web" poignantly deals with Chaldean sorcery, alternative sex practices, and a plumber's nightmare in a white trash hell. Not for the squeamish. Barf bag not included. ...

Holy Mother Of God
Pray before you read this. Pray that you won't crap your pants. Seriously though, this is one of the most utterly disgusting pieces of literature I've read in a while. If you are young and still have a shred of innocence, pass on these two stories. I've a veteran to the disgusting story-types but this takes it to a new level. One less star off of five because there are certain foods that I no longer can eat without barfing all over myself.

I'll never eat lime Jello again....
Edward Lee is the sickest, most twisted mind in the world.And boy, am I glad he writes!If you are queasy of stomach or easily grossed out, skip this one.But if would like a little bit of senseless gruesomeness and a surprisingly well written early work of Lee, pick this one up.If you can find a copy.

OPAS has two stories inside, both are treats.In his forward, Lee warns you that this is a foul book, but if you like it messy I urge you to enjoy this anyway.The first story, "That's Some Pig", is a sickening, squishy tale of familial torture, evisceration, stuffed animals, a busy spider, lime Jello, and missing Mommy.Yuck!Written by David Wilson and Brett Savory.

The second story, "Charlie's Web", written by Edward Lee and John Pelan, is about a self employed plumber who is transformed into a pig while out on a remote job.He meets a fellow victim trapped inside a spider, and they get together to plot again the witch who transformed them.

Bestiality, sorcery, and learning to deal with a new body are the repugnant topics for this little taste of hell.Yuck!
Putrid, vile, disgusting entertainment for those with iron stomachs and a penchant for all things foul.Enjoy...if you dare. ... Read more
