Download or read book Table Talk written by Janet A. Flammang and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The civic virtues of a seat at the table Etiquette books insist that we never discuss politics during a meal. In Table Talk, Janet A. Flammang offers a polite rebuttal, presenting vivid firsthand accounts of people's lives at the table to show how mealtimes can teach us the conversational give-and-take foundational to democracy. Delving into the ground rules about listening, sharing, and respect that we obey when we break bread, Flammang shows how conversations and table activities represent occasions for developing our civil selves. If there are cultural differences over practices--who should speak, what behavior is acceptable, what topics are off limits, how to resolve conflict--our exposure to the making, enforcement, and breaking of these rules offers a daily dose of political awareness and growth. Political table talk provides a forum to practice the conversational skills upon which civil society depends. It also ignites the feelings of respect, trust, and empathy that undergird the idea of a common good that is fundamental to the democratic process.

Download or read book Table Talk written by A.A. Gill and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2010-11-25 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first collection of food writing by Britain's funniest and most feared critic A.A. Gill knows food, and loves food. A meal is never just a meal. It has a past, a history, connotations. It is a metaphor for life. A.A. Gill delights in decoding what lies behind the food on our plates: famously, his reviews are as much ruminations on society at large as they are about the restaurants themselves. So alongside the concepts, customers and cuisines, ten years of writing about restaurants has yielded insights on everything from yaks to cowboys, picnics to politics. TABLE TALK is an idiosyncratic selection of A.A. Gill's writing about food, taken from his Sunday Times and Tatler columns. Sometimes inspired by the traditions of a whole country, sometimes by a single ingredient, it is a celebration of what great eating can be, an excoriation of those who get it wrong, and an education about our own appetites. Because it spans a decade, the book focuses on A.A. Gill's general dining experiences rather than individual restaurants - food fads, tipping, chefs, ingredients, eating in town and country and abroad, and the best and worst dining experiences. Fizzing with wit, it is a treat for gourmands, gourmets and anyone who relishes good writing.

Download or read book Hitler Redux written by Mikael Nilsson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Hitler's death, several posthumous books were published which purported to be the verbatim words of the Nazi leader – two of the most important of these documents were Hitler's Table Talk and The Testament of Adolf Hitler. This ground-breaking book provides the first in-depth analysis and critical study of Hitler’s so-called table talks and their history, provenance, translation, reception, and usage. Based on research in public and private archives in four countries, the book shows when, why, where, how, by and for whom the table talks were written, how reliable the texts are, and how historians should approach and use them. It reveals the crucial role of the mysterious Swiss Nazi Francois Genoud, as well as some very poor judgement from several famous historians in giving these dubious sources more credibility than they deserved. The book sets the record straight regarding the nature of these volumes as historical sources – proving inter alia The Testament to be a clever forgery – and aims to establish a new consensus on their meaning and impact on historical research into Hitler and the Third Reich. This path-breaking historical investigation will be of considerable interest to all researchers and historians of the Nazi era.
Book Synopsis Signs in the Heavens by : Marilyn Hickey
Download or read book Signs in the Heavens written by Marilyn Hickey and published by Marilyn Hickey. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warnings are found in the Scripture: God’s people must not seek guidance from the stars, nor worship them. Satan’s deception has influenced multitudes to attempt to foretell their futures through the evils of astrology. As a result, God’s Own people have ignored His first words about the stars, “and let them be for signs...” In his wisdom, God placed stars in the cosmos for one reason: to tell His perfect plan of redemption. In them lies the story of Jesus from His birth to the final judgment ahead. Signs in the Heavens shatters and exposes every lie of satanic deception about the stars. Learn about Old Testament men who caught visions of God’s plan through the stars, and also named them. You’ll see the story of your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, presented in the stars before Scripture was ever written. It’s time God’s people know the truth. You won’t be the same after Marilyn sets startling precept upon precept to bring you the Greatest Story Ever Told. Take this heavenly journey: discover the Signs in the Heavens!

Book Synopsis A Feast of Words by : Michel Jeanneret
Download or read book A Feast of Words written by Michel Jeanneret and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1991-10-08 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The banquet gives rise to a special moment when thought and the senses—words and food—enhance each other. Throughout history, the ideal of the symposium has reconciled the angel and the beast in the human, renewing the interdependence between the mouth that speaks and the mouth that eats. Michel Jeanneret's lively book explores the paradigm of the banquet as a guide to significant tendencies in Renaissance Humanist culture and shows how this culture in turn illuminates the tensions between physical and mental pleasures. Ranging widely over French, Italian, German, and Latin texts, Jeanneret not only investigates the meal as a narrative artefact but enquires as well into aspects of sixteenth-century anthropology and aesthetics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides access to selections from Martin LutherÕs Table Talk, Volume 54 of LutherÕs Works. Editor Henry F. French has carefully chosen some of the best of LutherÕs conversations with many guests who frequented the dinner table in the home of Martin and Katie Luther. Following the afternoon supper served at around 5 p.m. in the Luther household, guests ranging from exiled clergy, escaped nuns, government officials, visitors from abroad, and colleagues of Luther in the University stayed on in the relaxed and hospitable atmosphere to engage in spirited conversation. From 1531 till the year Luther died in 1546, colleagues and friends took notes of the table conversations in the Luther home. Topics ranged widely as Luther commented on his personal life and family; his perspectives on theology, Scripture, and the life of faith; his comments on political and social topics; and more. Almost no current issue was Òoff the table.Ó Those who read this book will join the conversation with Luther and friends as they wrestle with important questions of the day. Pull up a chair and join the circle. Henry F. French has written a brief new preface to introduce this abridged volume.
