The path to power by robert caro5/30/2023 Chronicling the startling early emergence of Johnson’s political genius, it follows him from his Texas boyhood through the years of the Depression in the Texas hill Country to the triumph of his congressional debut in New Deal Washington, to his heartbreaking defeat in his first race for the Senate, and his attainment, nonetheless, of the national power for which he hungered. The Path to Power, Book One, reveals in extraordinary detail the genesis of the almost superhuman drive, energy, and urge to power that set LBJ apart. No president-no era of American politics-has been so intensively and sharply examined at a time when so many prime witnesses to hitherto untold or misinterpreted facets of a life, a career, and a period of history could still be persuaded to speak. The Years of Lyndon Johnson is the political biography of our time. You can read this before The Path to Power PDF EPUB full Download at the bottom. Here is a quick description and cover image of book The Path to Power written by Robert A. Brief Summary of Book: The Path to Power by Robert A. The Birth House by Ami McKay5/30/2023 But their traditions and methods are threatened when a doctor comes to town with promises of painless childbirth and sets about undermining Dora's credibility. Dora becomes her apprentice at the outset of World War I, and together they help women through difficult births, unwanted pregnancies and even unfulfilling marriages. As a child in the small village of Scot's Bay, Dora Rare – the first female in five generations of Rares – is befriended by Miss Babineau, an elderly midwife with a kitchen filled with folk remedies and a talent for telling tales. Epic and enchanting, 'The Birth House' is a gripping saga about a midwife's struggles in the wilds of Nova Scotia. In a tale spanning the 20th century, Ami McKay takes a primitive and superstitious rural community in Nova Scotia and creates a rich tableau of characters to tell the story of childbirth from its most secretive early practices to modern maternity as we know it. The mitford affair book5/30/2023 Her family - and society at large, for that matter - was aghast at her decision. Marie: Diana, who was often described as the loveliest girl of her generation, left her wealthy, handsome, enamored husband, Bryan Guinness of the Guinness Beer fortune, for Sir Oswald Mosley, who was the married founder of the British Union of Fascists. Jen: What happens in Diana’s life that causes discord among the sisters? The sisters found themselves in the cross-hairs of the lead-up to World War II. Each sister was more beautiful, brilliant, and eccentric than the next, and they appeared in the headlines so often their mother publicly stated that anytime she saw the phrase “peer’s daughter” in the newspapers, it was about her daughters. Marie: The six Mitford sisters were the aristocratic “it” girls of the 1920s and 1930s in Great Britain. But when I came across the Mitfords again as I did research about their cousins the Churchills while writing another novel, LADY CLEMENTINE, I learned about the shocking ways in which these sisters were at the epicenter of World War II - and I knew I had to write this timely tale. Marie Benedict: I’ve been fascinated by the rarified, mesmerizing, often strange world of the Mitfords since college when a dear friend and I backpacked across Europe after a semester abroad and I brought along one of Nancy Mitford semi-autobiographical novels to read during our train travels.

The lais of marie de france lanval5/30/2023 Beyond that, the Lais demonstrate that true love is generally worth enduring the suffering it causes-and that love can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Though the Lais offer various perspectives on love, they present courtly love as a delicate balance between longing and fulfillment, grief and joy, and ardor and restraint. And indeed, there are stories in which true love prevails in the end and seems to genuinely fulfill the characters, such as in “Eliduc,” when Eliduc and Guilliadun finally get married even though they’re from different countries, Eliduc is married to someone else at first, and Guilliadun temporarily falls into a coma. Yet throughout the Lais, characters continue to pursue love in spite of emotional or physical suffering, suggesting that courtly love is nonetheless a noble and worthwhile pursuit. For instance, in a scenario that recurs in several tales, the knight Guigemar and his desired young lady are so “wounded” by love that until they admit their feelings for each other, they are despondent, each believing the other could never love them back. But in Marie de France’s stories, love isn’t always particularly romantic-it’s a source of profound joy, but it also brings about peril and misery for the characters. Courtly love is a medieval literary motif in which a knight undertakes chivalrous quests in pursuit of a noble lady whom he loves from afar.

Ali smith how to be both review5/30/2023 We have a story of a teenager called George, who exists in contemporary England, and a story of an Italian Renaissance painter named Francesco del Cossa. ‘How To Be Both’ is composed of two stories, with the novel’s main selling point being that it can be read in two different ways. Well that’s just all fine and fabulous, but the problem is, I absolutely hated it (shock horror!) and I don’t know a single person who ‘genuinely’ liked the book. The book hailed the rebirth of stylistic originality, while Ali Smith has been described as ‘a literary genius’. ‘How To Be Both’ was marketed as a genre defining, a creative work of ‘literature’ that is bending all the rules, a novel of ultimate importance in the literary world. If there is one thing I learn from all the literary prizes and commendations received by Ali Smith’s novel ‘How To Be Both’, it is that we can so easily fall prey to the bells, whistles and buzz words of a good media campaign.

In exploring Arani's short but remarkable life and writings, Ali Mirsepassi challenges the image of Interwar Iran as dominated by the Pahlavi state to uncover fertile intellectual spaces in which civic nationalism flourished. In cultural spaces like Donya, Arani and his contemporaries engaged vibrant debates about national identity, history, and Iran's place in the modern world. He sought to reconcile Iran to its post-Islamic past, rejected by Persian purists and romanticized by their traditionalist counterparts, while orienting its present toward the modern West in all its complex and conflicting facets.Īs Ali Mirsepassi shows, Arani's cosmopolitanism complicates the conventional wisdom that racial exclusivism was an insoluble feature of twentieth-century Iranian nationalism. In his quest to imagine a future for Iran open to the scientific riches of the modern world and the historical diversity of its own people, Arani combined Marxist materialism and a cosmopolitan ethics of progress. The Discovery of Iran examines the history of Iranian nationalism afresh through the life and work of Taghi Arani, the founder of Iran's first Marxist journal, Donya. |
