Book excerpt: Words. What would we be without them? Without words, we could hardly be said to be human—fully human. Without words, there would be no poems. No novels. No scientific treatises. No textbooks. No chapter books. No children’s books. Without words, there would be no discussions. No arguments. No guidance. No praise. No reproof—maybe the absence of reproof is a good thing. Without words, there would be no newspapers. No magazines. No mail. No email. Without words, we wouldn’t be able to sing lullabies to our children. Without words, we wouldn’t be able to whisper sweet nothings in the ears of our lovers—the whispers would literally be nothings. It’s astonishing to consider that 26 letters produce 450,000 English words. From this vast sea of verbal possibilities, My Favorite Words draws a cupful of words. Useful words. Upright words. Interesting words. Wholesome words. Needful words. Necessary words. Workaday words that any writer would be proud to put in a sentence.

Book excerpt: Nothing could have been different. Laurence Mahler returns to Petersburg after five years in the North. He never felt he belonged in the places where he was away from home. And he never felt he belonged in the place that’s home. Adrift and directionless, he’s a freethinker troubled by Virginia’s secession. He feels loyalty neither to the Confederacy or to the Union. He meets Sharyn Strahy, an intelligent and ambitious young woman of means. They fall instantly in love—but the time for romance is not propitious. The quivers of love fly amid the darts of Civil War. Encouraged by Sharyn, Laurence enrolls in a school where all the courses are pass-or-die. Enlisting in the Confederate army, his life changes in a sudden maturity when he surrenders the peaceable halls of academia for gruesome battles in grim places like The Wilderness. Nothing could have been different in Sharyn’s life. Enthusiastic for Confederate victory, Sharyn learns the ghastly cost of total war when she volunteers in the Virginia Hospital. The grotesque deformations she views in men made in the image of God reveal the error of her heedless patriotism. Innocence is always the first virtue obliterated in the majesty of rebellion.

Book excerpt: Sometimes the lives we lead don’t fit our natures. Ross Rowen, heir to a pharmaceutical fortune, deserts the velvet life of wealth and haute culture to live in poverty among blue-collar laborers. Shannon Flavin deserts a troubled family to take her place in the great Manhattan. They meet in the diner where Shannon waitresses and instantly fall in love. When Ross accosts a Vietnam War protestor, they travel to Shannon’s home in Blue Water, New Jersey. Life in the backwater resort clashes with Ross’s quixotic temperament. They return to Manhattan, but life in a Midtown mansion doesn’t match Shannon’s guileless disposition. She doesn’t belong in the gilded society Ross saunters through. She doesn’t belong among Ross’s intellectual friends. She returns alone to Blue Water. The broken tracks on the beach at Blue Water lead to reconciliation and the novel’s fundamental insight—it is not possible to cure a life. Misfits in the greater life of the world, they fit into one another’s life, perfectly. Shannon rescued Ross from a debauched life in New York. Ross follows her to Blue Water and learns what love requires. In the novel’s tumultuous close, Ross risks death to save the love of his life.

Book Synopsis Gender and Political Culture in Early Modern Europe, 1400-1800 by : James Daybell
Download or read book Gender and Political Culture in Early Modern Europe, 1400-1800 written by James Daybell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-01 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender and Political Culture in Early Modern Europe investigates the gendered nature of political culture across early modern Europe by exploring the relationship between gender, power, and political authority and influence. This collection offers a rethinking of what constituted ‘politics’ and a reconsideration of how men and women operated as part of political culture. It demonstrates how underlying structures could enable or constrain political action, and how political power and influence could be exercised through social and cultural practices. The book is divided into four parts - diplomacy, gifts and the politics of exchange; socio-economic structures; gendered politics at court; and voting and political representations – each of which looks at a series of interrelated themes exploring the ways in which political culture is inflected by questions of gender. In addition to examples drawn from across Europe, including Austria, the Dutch Republic, the Italian States and Scandinavia, the volume also takes a transnational comparative approach, crossing national borders, while the concluding chapter, by Merry Wiesner-Hanks, offers a global perspective on the field and encourages comparative analysis both chronologically and geographically. As the first collection to draw together early modern gender and political culture, this book is the perfect starting point for students exploring this fascinating topic.

Download or read book Falwell Inc. written by Dirk Smillie and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritual Street Fighter. Radical Educator. Christian Entrepreneur. The late Reverend Jerry Falwell was a controversial and divisive religious and political figure whose legacy will long outlive him. Falwell Inc. is the first close examination of how he built his conservative empire, from the inner workings of the fund-raising juggernauts behind his church, university, and conservative causes, to the explosive growth of Liberty University, founded by Falwell to mint conservative lawyers, judges, and politicans. Falwell's religious ventures are now in the hands of his two very different sons. They are expanding their father's empire beyond what he ever achieved. Investigative reporter Dirk Smillie reveals the financial rapids Reverend Falwell and son Jerry Jr. hit when business failures piled up $100 million in debt and nearly sank his school and ministry. Smillie uncovers the extraordinary impact Falwell, in saving his spiritual enterprises, has had on Lynchburg, Virginia, and how savvy real estate investments and relentless fund-raising saved the empire. Falwell Inc. details the spreading influence his legacy continues to exert on our country. Falwell Inc. is above all an astonishing behind-the-curtains look at a powerful but flawed man and his multimillion-dollar business, political, religious, and education enterprises, by a reporter with unprecedented access to the family.
