Sinopse

Medieval Time explores how Europeans in the Middle Ages measured and organized time, revealing the surprising influence of calendars on trade, governance, and religious life. Early medieval timekeeping was fragmented, with local calendars tied to agricultural cycles or saints' days. Intriguingly, the need for synchronized timekeeping grew with the rise of the Church and expanding trade networks, pushing for standardized calendars that could coordinate everything from religious festivals to market days. The book examines the move towards standardized calendars and its impact on medieval society.

 
We learn how the Church played a vital role in promoting the Julian calendar and reforming timekeeping to align with religious events like Easter. The book progresses chronologically, beginning with diverse early systems, then analyzing standardization efforts by monastic orders and rulers. It concludes by assessing the lasting impact of medieval timekeeping on our modern understanding of time.

    The Reign of Terror -...

    The Reign of Terror did not emerge suddenly; rather, it was the result of years of social unrest, economic hardship, and political turmoil that set France on a course toward radicalization. The fall of the Ancien Régime, combined with growing revolutionary fervor, laid the foundation for the bloodshed that would follow. By understanding the conditions that gave rise to the Reign of Terror, we can better grasp the motivations of those who sought to reshape France through violence and fear. 
    The collapse of the Ancien Régime was driven by deep-seated inequalities between the ruling elite and the common people. For centuries, French society had been structured into three estates: the clergy, the nobility, and the commoners. While the first two estates enjoyed privileges and wealth, the Third Estate—comprising peasants, laborers, and the emerging bourgeoisie—bore the burden of heavy taxation and economic hardship. As Enlightenment ideas of liberty and equality spread, resentment toward the monarchy and aristocracy grew, igniting a revolutionary spirit among the oppressed classes. 
    Economic turmoil exacerbated tensions as France faced a severe financial crisis. Decades of war, extravagant spending by the monarchy, and a failing tax system left the country on the brink of collapse. The situation worsened in the late 1780s when poor harvests led to widespread food shortages. Soaring bread prices, the staple of the common people’s diet, fueled anger and desperation. As hunger and poverty gripped the nation, the belief that radical change was necessary gained momentum. In 1789, King Louis XVI, unable to resolve the crisis, convened the Estates-General, an assembly of representatives from all three estates. However, when the Third Estate was denied equal representation, they broke away and formed the National Assembly, marking the first significant challenge to monarchical authority.

    Writing in response to the growing anti-Chinese sentiment and alarmed by the threat of war, Dr. David Daokui Li pulls from his wealth of firsthand experience to demystify contemporary Chinese society and advocate for understanding between China and the West. In this urgently needed and fascinating book, he explains the inner workings of a rising superpower to help the world understand how it works—and how to work with it. 
     
     
     
    In Li's hands, an economic and political system that often baffles Westerners becomes coherent, sophisticated, and logical. He begins by explaining how two thousand years of history—from Confucian philosophy and ancient imperial dynasties to Communist Party chairmen from Mao to Deng Xiaoping—profoundly influence China's leadership today. Li brings the listener into high-level meetings he attended with figures including Xi Jinping, showing China's approach to governance. 
     
     
     
    In demystifying contemporary Chinese society, Li helps listeners reconceptualize contemporary China and the implications of its growth. He asserts that China's rise will be beneficial for the global order, holding out the hope that with shared understanding and mutual learning the Chinese and Western systems will eventually find a way to peacefully coexist.
