Beschreibung

The book "Rebellion in the Poetry of Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997)" is an analytical study that explores the significance of rebellion in the works of American poet Allen Ginsberg. Ginsberg is considered one of the most prominent contemporary poets in America, and the title poem of his first published collection, "Howl and Other Poems" (1956), established him as a poet of rebellion.
The book delves into Ginsberg's poetic and rebellious journey over three decades, as he preached rebellion through his words and actions. With his anti-authoritarian beliefs and unconventional literary style, Ginsberg became a leading figure in the Beat movement of the 1950s, a prominent figure in the counterculture movement of the 1960s, and an active member of the anti-nuclear movement of the 1970s.
In the early years of his career, Ginsberg faced difficulties in explaining and defending his poetry, as he was often ridiculed by the literary establishment. However, as time went on, his works gained more appreciation and understanding. The book aims to understand and appreciate the significance of Ginsberg's poetry and dispel previous misconceptions.
The book's three chapters explore various aspects of rebellion in Ginsberg's poetry, from his critique of society and politics to his rejection of new critical theories and modernism. It analyzes the reasons and motivations behind his rebellion and seeks to find a unified theory that encompasses the different aspects of his rebellious nature in his poetry. It also discusses the literary techniques and approaches used by Ginsberg and offers critical insights into his work.
In summary, "Rebellion in the Poetry of Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997)" is a valuable resource for understanding and appreciating the work of the poet. It provides a comprehensive and in-depth analysis of rebellion and innovation in his poetry.

History's Turn - Understanding...

Marcus Draysun

This book contains the following two titles:
If the South Had Won: The American Civil War's Alternate Ending - The outcome of the Civil War changed dramatically in this alternate history, with the South emerging victorious. The Confederacy’s early victories redefined the course of the conflict and set the stage for a dramatically different future. One of the key factors in the South’s triumph was the strategic advantage gained in the opening years of the war. With superior military leadership, especially from General Robert E. Lee, the Confederacy was able to exploit the Union’s weaknesses and win crucial battles that would eventually shift the momentum in their favor. The Battle of Gettysburg, for instance, saw Confederate forces turning the tide of battle in their favor. With the Union forces retreating, the South captured key northern territories, including Washington D.C., which became a symbol of Confederate dominance.
Red Dawn: What If the Soviets Had Prevailed in the Cold War? - The Cold War, which dominated much of the 20th century, was a clash of ideologies, political ambitions, and global power struggles. It was a battle between two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, each determined to impose its vision of the future upon the world. The Cold War never boiled over into full-scale war, but the fear of nuclear annihilation and the constant threat of conflict shaped the political landscape. But what if the Soviet Union had won this prolonged battle, and the world as we know it had unfolded differently?

The Big Tent

Santiago Machain

This book reveals how a nomadic empire engineered the most ambitious peace of the medieval world—and what it cost to keep it. From the relay-station highways of the yam to the cosmopolitan capitals of Dadu, Tabriz, and Sarai, this volume shows how the Mongols turned conquest into governance, revived the Silk Roads, and moved people, ideas, and technologies at unprecedented speed. Readers meet rulers like Ögedei and Khubilai, merchants underwriting caravans with paper money, monks and qadis negotiating pluralism, and engineers dredging canals to feed cities. Across chapters on law, daily life, diplomacy, and long-distance trade, the book reconstructs a functioning imperial system—bold, pragmatic, and often surprisingly humane—before charting the stresses that strained it by the late 13th century: fiscal overreach, environmental shocks, regional rivalries, and administrative fatigue. Grounded in vivid scenes and careful analysis, this is a sweeping, accessible history of how the Mongol order worked on the ground—and why it began to creak even as it transformed Eurasia.

Ladies-in-Waiting - Women Who...

Sylvia Barbara Soberton

The aspects of Anne Boleyn's life and death are fiercely debated by historians, yet her ladies-in-waiting remain an understudied topic. Much emphasis is usually put on Anne's relationships with the men in her life: her suitors, her royal husband, her father and brother, and her putative lovers who were executed on May 17, 1536. By concentrating on a previously neglected area of Anne Boleyn's female household, this book seeks to identify the women who served Anne and investigate what roles ladies-in-waiting played in this Queen's household.
