This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un recorrido por los hechos aún sin explicación que ocurrieron en medio del caos que fue la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A estas alturas nadie puede poner en duda que la Segunda Guerra Mundial es una fuente inagotable de historias. Las complicadas operaciones militares, el elevado número de soldados y aparatos de guerra implicados, los estudios científicos destinados a revolucionar las infraestructuras bélicas o las herméticas teorías nazis, nos han dejado no pocos acontecimientos que aún hoy están sin responder. Desde este punto de partida Jesús Hernández nos presenta en este libro, huyendo del sensacionalismo de las confabulaciones místicas y de la búsqueda nazi de elementos mágicos, algunos de los hechos inexplicados de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Enigmas y Misterios de la Segunda Guerra Mundial pretende encontrar una explicación plausible a los misterios que nos han llegado del conflicto y, destapar aquellas historias fantásticas que han alcanzado fama y difusión. Dividido en seis capítulos, nos irá presentando Jesús Hernández en primer lugar los sucesos que continúan todavía sin explicación como el misterioso ataque a Los Ángeles por extraños artefactos voladores, nos detalla la vida de los espías más enigmáticos implicados en la guerra y nos relata las extrañas desapariciones de personajes tan célebres como el piloto Antoine de Sant-Exupéry, autor de El principito. Tambíen tienen cabida en el libro las historias sobre máquinas de guerra malditas como el submarino USS Tang que se hundió por un torpedo defectuoso que él mismo lanzó y, por supuesto, una investigación esclarecedora sobre las enigmáticas muertes de Martin Bormann o Herman Goering. En un último capítulo presenta también los mitos e historias fantásticas asociadas al conflicto, como el experimento Filadelfia, en el que, según algunos testigos, se consiguió teletransportar un buque de la marina americana. Razones para comprar la obra: - El libro es un trabajo riguroso que pretende mostrar toda la información que rodea a estos hechos curiosos para separar hechos inexplicables de relatos fantásticos. - El estilo y la clara intención didáctica del autor hacen que el libro se pueda leer de un modo ágil sin perder por ello nada de su poder divulgativo. - Los enigmas presentados y su investigación están sacados de la más reciente desclasificación de documentos. - El autor aporta todas las versiones, desde la versión oficial hasta los testimonios más disparatados, para que sea el lector quien determine la verosimilitud de los misterios presentados. Los puntos más oscuros del conflicto que sobrecogió al mundo presentados con una clara intención de esclarecer, en la medida de lo posible, las desapariciones, las muertes y los sucesos más extraños del mayor enfrentamiento armado de la historia.

Book Synopsis A History of Orgies by : Burgo Partridge
Download or read book A History of Orgies written by Burgo Partridge and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An orgy, the dictionary tells us, is “a wild gathering, marked by promiscuous sexual activity, excessive drinking, etc.” Burgo Partridge tells us precisely what that has meant down through the ages. He begins with the Greeks, who celebrated sexuality at Dionysian festivals, and the Romans, who imported unwholesome brutalities into their orgiastic celebrations. We then learn of the penchant for group sex displayed by medieval popes, the junketings of Restoration England, the aristocratic hedonists of the Hellfire Club and Scotland’s notorious Wig Club, the orgiastic tastes of Casanova and the Marquis de Sade, right into the 20th century and the bizarre excesses of Aleister Crowley.

Book Synopsis Soldaderas in the Mexican Military by : Elizabeth Salas
Download or read book Soldaderas in the Mexican Military written by Elizabeth Salas and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-07-04 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the evolving role of women soldiers in Mexico—as both fighters and cultural symbols—from the pre-Columbian era to the present. Since pre-Columbian times, soldiering has been a traditional life experience for innumerable women in Mexico. Yet the many names given these women warriors—heroines, camp followers, Amazons, coronelas, soldadas, soldaderas, and Adelitas—indicate their ambivalent position within Mexican society. In this original study, Elizabeth Salas challenges many traditional stereotypes, shedding new light on the significance of these women. Drawing on military archival data, anthropological studies, and oral history interviews, Salas first explores the real roles played by Mexican women in armed conflicts. She finds that most of the functions performed by women easily equate to those performed by revolutionaries and male soldiers in the quartermaster corps and regular ranks. She then turns her attention to the soldadera as a continuing symbol, examining the image of the soldadera in literature, corridos, art, music, and film. Salas finds that the fundamental realities of war link all Mexican women, regardless of time period, social class, or nom de guerre.
Book Synopsis Without Criteria by : Steven Shaviro
Download or read book Without Criteria written by Steven Shaviro and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Deleuzian reading of Whitehead and a Whiteheadian reading of Deleuze open the possibility of a critical aesthetics of contemporary culture. In Without Criteria, Steven Shaviro proposes and explores a philosophical fantasy: imagine a world in which Alfred North Whitehead takes the place of Martin Heidegger. What if Whitehead, instead of Heidegger, had set the agenda for postmodern thought? Heidegger asks, “Why is there something, rather than nothing?” Whitehead asks, “How is it that there is always something new?” In a world where everything from popular music to DNA is being sampled and recombined, argues Shaviro, Whitehead's question is the truly urgent one. Without Criteria is Shaviro's experiment in rethinking postmodern theory, especially the theory of aesthetics, from a point of view that hearkens back to Whitehead rather than Heidegger. In working through the ideas of Whitehead and Deleuze, Shaviro also appeals to Kant, arguing that certain aspects of Kant's thought pave the way for the philosophical “constructivism” embraced by both Whitehead and Deleuze. Kant, Whitehead, and Deleuze are not commonly grouped together, but the juxtaposition of them in Without Criteria helps to shed light on a variety of issues that are of concern to contemporary art and media practices.
Book Synopsis The Object of the Atlantic by : Rachel Price
Download or read book The Object of the Atlantic written by Rachel Price and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-30 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Object of the Atlantic is a wide-ranging study of the transition from a concern with sovereignty to a concern with things in Iberian Atlantic literature and art produced between 1868 and 1968. Rachel Price uncovers the surprising ways that concrete aesthetics from Cuba, Brazil, and Spain drew not only on global forms of constructivism but also on a history of empire, slavery, and media technologies from the Atlantic world. Analyzing Jose Marti’s notebooks, Joaquim de Sousandrade’s poetry, Ramiro de Maeztu’s essays on things and on slavery, 1920s Cuban literature on economic restructuring, Ferreira Gullar’s theory of the “non-object,” and neoconcrete art, Price shows that the turn to objects—and from these to new media networks—was rooted in the very philosophies of history that helped form the Atlantic world itself.

Nolan, Dashiell Hammett: A Casebook). Born in the pages of Black Mask in 1923, the Continental Op is ageless, a hardworking hero as much for our time as he is for his own.

Book Synopsis Grandes atrocidades de la Segunda Guerra Mundial by : Jesús Hernández
Download or read book Grandes atrocidades de la Segunda Guerra Mundial written by Jesús Hernández and published by Editorial Almuzara. This book was released on with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando hablamos de atrocidades de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, acuden a nuestra cabeza los nombres de Auschwitz, Sobibor o Treblinka, en donde aquella conflagración que segó la vida de millones de personas inocentes se mostraría en todo su espeluznante horror. También provoca escalofríos conocer los detalles de lo ocurrido en Hiroshima o Nagasaki, cuando la humanidad se enfrentó por primera vez al apocalipsis atómico. Pero, desgraciadamente, son muchos más los nombres escritos con sangre en la historia del conflicto de 1939-1945... A través de estas páginas, el lector podrá conocer el sangriento prólogo que tuvo lugar en 1937 en la ciudad china de Nanking, como pavoroso adelanto de lo que estaba por llegar. También descubrirá tragedias como la deportación de miles civiles polacos a Siberia, o la brutal limpieza étnica que se desarrolló en la región de Volinia, hechos que suelen ser pasados por alto por los historiadores del conflicto.Por el contrario, a los campos de exterminio nazis se les ha dedicado una gran atención, pero no tanto a las sistemáticas matanzas cometidas por los Einsatzgruppen en el frente oriental. La más representativa, la perpetrada en el tristemente célebre barranco de Babi Yar, es aquí descrita como si de una crónica periodística se tratase, para situar al lector en medio de aquel horror. También es bien conocido el nombre de Katyn, el bosque en el que los soviéticos asesinaron a sangre fría a miles de prisioneros polacos, pero no tanto las historias personales ligadas a aquella masacre, incluyendo alguna que ve por primera vez la luz en esta obra. Los soviéticos cometieron otros asesinatos masivos, como el que tuvo como escenario la aldea chechena de Khaibakh, el capítulo más terrible de la política de deportación de civiles pertenecientes a minorías étnicas emprendida por Stalin. Pero no sólo alemanes y soviéticos recurrieron a la violencia indiscriminada contra la población civil. Los aliados occidentales no pueden presentar un expediente impoluto en este terreno. A la campaña de bombardeos sobre las ciudades germanas, tan encarnizada como inefectiva –descrita en estas páginas en toda su insoportable realidad-, le costaría encontrar una justificación, dejando aparte las matanzas puntuales de prisioneros de guerra y civiles italianos cometidas por soldados norteamericanos en Sicilia, sobre las que se extendería un manto de silencio. Todos estos crímenes de guerra, y otros más, conforman el panorama del horror sin precedentes que supuso la Segunda Guerra Mundial, mostrando los límites a los que puede llegar el género humano cuando se entrecruzan el fanatismo, la crueldad, el odio, y, en la mayoría de casos, la impunidad.

Book excerpt: Shambhala: An Adventure to Find Mysteries by Joy Mondal In the hidden valleys of the Himalayas, tales whispered on the winds speak of the mythical city of Shambhala—a place of eternal peace and unparalleled beauty. For Om, a curious explorer with an insatiable appetite for the unknown, Shambhala becomes more than just a myth—it becomes an obsession. Accompanied by Boby, the love of his life and his guiding light, Om's journey takes them deep into treacherous terrains, through ancient monasteries and forgotten trails. As they unravel the clues leading to this lost city, they stumble upon a revelation far more incredible than either of them had ever imagined. But the journey to Shambhala is not without its challenges. When the skies darken and disaster strikes in the form of the devastating Kedarnath floods, Om and Boby must rely on each other and the strength of their love to survive the merciless wrath of nature. However, as they stand against the odds, the two realize that the search for Shambhala was never just about finding a city—it was about discovering the mysteries of the heart and soul, and the power of love to overcome all adversities. Hold your breath as you delve into this thrilling adventure where myth intertwines with reality, and destiny plays its cards in unpredictable ways. But remember, this story is far from over... Chapter 2 is on the horizon.

Book Synopsis U.S. Marines In Battle: An-Najaf, August 2004. [Illustrated Edition] by : Francis X. Kozlowski
Download or read book U.S. Marines In Battle: An-Najaf, August 2004. [Illustrated Edition] written by Francis X. Kozlowski and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes 3 maps and 35 illustrations. The city of an-Najaf, Iraq, is a provincial and market center located on the western branch of the Euphrates River approximately 100 miles south of Baghdad....This is a “battle study” written purposely from the perspective of the Marines, soldiers, and sailors who fought at an-Najaf in Aug. 2004...The Americans deployed to al-Anbar and an-Najaf Provinces, faced a variety of threats as Iraq attempted to again govern itself. Threats were from disparate sources, including Sunni fighters in Fallujah and Shi’a fighters in Najaf. This complexity of threats did not lend itself to easy solutions. In March 2004, Lieutenant General James T. Conway’s I Marine Expeditionary Force was faced with an outbreak of Sunni insurgency in Fallujah. At the same time, a Shi’a uprising took place across Iraq, including Baghdad, Najaf, an-Nasiriyah, al-Kut, al-Amarah, and Kirkuk. The fighting spread to Karbala, Hillah, and Basrah with attacks on Iraqi and Coalition outposts. This fighting dropped off in June with the establishment of the Iraqi Interim Government of Prime Minister Ayad Allawi, but the menace of further violence remained. The Multi-National Force-Iraq, under General George W. Casey Jr., USA, felt that before the Iraqis could be responsible for security in each province, the centers of violence had to be dealt with by a “clear-hold-build” approach. Baghdad, Fallujah, and Najaf were thus targeted. When Muqtada al-Sadr fomented another uprising in Aug., the recently arrived 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit found itself assigned to quell the uprising in Najaf. It would be reinforced for this effort by two U.S. Army and four Iraqi Army battalions. The narrative that follows documents this effort from the small unit level. The importance of the close relationship between political and military force is emphasized. The intent is to provide a view of combat for the education and training of Marines who might face similar circumstances.
