Sinopse

In "Emily Brontë," A. Mary F. Robinson offers an incisive exploration of the life and work of one of the most enigmatic figures in English literature. The book employs a nuanced literary style, combining biographical analysis with critical examination of Brontë's poetry and prose, particularly her iconic novel, "Wuthering Heights." Robinson situates Brontë within the broader context of the Romantic period, highlighting the influence of her Yorkshire moorland surroundings and the complexities of her family life, which deeply informed her artistic vision. Through careful textual analysis and rich, descriptive language, Robinson illuminates Brontë's themes of passion, isolation, and the struggle for artistic independence. A. Mary F. Robinson was a prominent literary figure in her own right, deeply immersed in the study of 19th-century literature. Her scholarly pursuits and personal affinity for the Brontë sisters greatly influenced her desire to delve into Emily's life, examining how the societal constraints of her time shaped her creative expression. Robinson's background offers an invaluable perspective, bridging the gap between historical context and literary legacy. This book is essential for anyone seeking to understand the intricacies of Emily Brontë's work and the conditions that nurtured her genius. Robinson's engaging prose invites readers to not only reflect on Brontë's contributions to literature but also to consider the enduring power of her voice in shaping feminist literary discourse.

    Joe Biden has found his way back to Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal. After four decades of diminishing prospects for ordinary people, the public likes what Biden is offering. Yet American democracy is in dire peril as Republicans, increasingly the national minority, try to destroy democracy in order to cling to power. It is the best of times and the worst of times. In Going Big, bestselling author and political journalist Robert Kuttner assesses the promise and peril of this critical juncture. 
     
     
     
    Biden, like FDR in his time, faces multiple challenges. Roosevelt had to make terrible compromises with racist legislators to win enactment of his program. Biden, to achieve the necessary governing coalition, needs to achieve durable multiracial coalitions. Roosevelt had to conquer fascism in Europe; Biden must defeat it at home. And after four decades of neoliberal policy disasters reflecting Wall Street's political influence, Biden needs to go beyond what even FDR achieved, to restore a democratic economy of broad possibility. 
     
     
     
    From a writer with an unparalleled understanding of the history and politics that have made this moment possible, this book is the essential guide to what is at stake for Joe Biden, for America, and for our democracy.

    At the height of the Roman Empire, the Romans sought to preserve their influence in Greater Armenia by employing foreign kings as proxies. In contrast, the Armenian people and their rulers strived to emancipate themselves from Roman hegemony and the dominance of their allies, aspiring to reinstate the sovereignty of the Greater Armenian Kingdom while reestablishing a mutually beneficial military-political alliance with the neighboring Parthian Kingdom.  
    The early medieval history of Armenia is characterized by a complex interplay of external pressures and internal resilience as the region navigated the competing influences of the Byzantine and Sassanid Empires. By the sixth century, Armenia had become a contested frontier, its strategic location making it a focal point for both empires and an emerging target for Arab expansion in subsequent centuries. Amid this geopolitical turbulence, the Armenian nobility—particularly the Nakharar (Princes) class—played a pivotal role in maintaining a semblance of political and cultural autonomy. Among these noble families, the Bagratunis rose to prominence, adeptly maneuvering through periods of foreign domination to establish the Bagratuni (Bagratid) dynasty in 885.

    Just as the oral histories of people around the world are disappearing amid rapid change, there is a risk that your family's personal stories, too, will be lost forever. In The Essential Questions, anthropologist Elizabeth Keating helps you to uncover the unique memories of your parents and grandparents and to create lasting connection with them in the process. 
     
     
     
    As you seek to learn more about your family history, how do you get beyond familiar anecdotes and avoid the frustration of oppositional generational attitudes? By asking questions that make the familiar strange, anthropologists are able to see entirely different perspectives and understand new cultures. Drawing on her lifelong work in this field, Keating has developed a set of questions that treat your parents and grandparents not just as the people who raised you, but as individuals of a certain society and time, and as the children, teenagers, and young adults they once were. The Essential Questions helps you to learn about the history of your elders, to see the world through their eyes, and to honor the language they choose to describe their experiences.
