Beschreibung

In "The Puzzle of Dickens's Last Plot," Andrew Lang delves into the enigmatic final work of one of England's most celebrated novelists, Charles Dickens. Combining a narrative analysis with keen literary criticism, Lang meticulously examines the intricacies and unresolved threads woven throughout Dickens's unfinished manuscript, "The Mystery of Edwin Drood." Utilizing a rich tapestry of literary allusions and historical context, Lang situates Dickens within the Victorian literary landscape, illuminating the author's stylistic evolution while probing the cultural and psychological factors that may have influenced his final narrative choices. Andrew Lang, a renowned Scottish poet, novelist, and literary critic, possessed an intimate familiarity with Dickens's oeuvre, which undoubtedly informed his exploration of this complex text. His diverse academic background—spanning folklore, anthropology, and literary history—equipped him with the analytical tools necessary for deciphering the layers of meaning in Dickens's work. Lang's admiration for Dickens's artistry also renders this exploration a deeply personal endeavor, reflecting a scholar profoundly engaged with literary legacy and modern interpretation. For scholars, students, and avid readers alike, Lang's "The Puzzle of Dickens's Last Plot" serves as an indispensable guide to understanding the unresolved mysteries of Dickens's narrative ambitions. This thoughtful and analytical exploration provides fresh insights into the author's creative mind, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in Victorian literature or the intricacies of literary endings.

    So ancient was Totemism in Egypt that the Totems of the human Mothers had become the signs of Goddesses, in whom the head of the beast was blended with the figure of the human female. The Totems of the human Mothers had attained the highest status as Totems of a Motherhood that was held to be divine, the Motherhood in Nature which was elemental in its origin. --from "Totemism, Tattoo and Fetishism as Forms of Sign Language" It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a "hidden history" of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey's massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World--first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar--redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs. Here, Cosimo proudly presents Book 2 of Ancient Egypt, in which Massey reads the prehistoric story of human civilization that can be studied in the language of ceremonial rites, ancient customs, and ritual dance, and consequently explores the resultant concept that religion evolved out of expressions of human fertility and sexuality--particularly as embodied in the primeval symbols of blood, sacrifice, and motherhood--and formed the first influences on Judeo-Christianity. Peculiar and profound, this work will intrigue and delight readers of history, religion, and mythology. British author GERALD MASSEY (1828-1907) published works of poetry, spiritualism, Shakespearean criticism, and theology, but his best-known works are in the realm of Egyptology, including A Book of the Beginnings and The Natural Genesis.

    Infants are born with a variety of intrinsic behaviors that help them survive. In times of need or suffering, the infant's attachment behavior allows them to bring others towards them. Infants that have experienced a solid attachment bond acquire a strong expectation of feeling protected and safe, allowing them to explore their surroundings with greater confidence. Our attachment instinct, shared by most mammals, is a fundamental adaptation for survival in infancy. When newborns are scared, anxious, feel ill, or are threatened, their attachment system is triggered. In this stage, infants will commence proximity-seeking behaviors such as weeping, clinging, or following with their eyes in babies, and more verbal or complex behaviors in older children toward their primary attachment figure (normally a parent or the main caregiver). The attachment method can be removed once proximity and reassurance have been reached. Seeking help and the various techniques an individual takes to get aid are the foundations of the attachment process.Based on repeated contact with significant others, the child develops a set of mental models of itself and others in social interactions in response to parenting behavior. These early attachment interactions are critical for subsequent social relationships, emotional and stress regulation capacities, self-control, mentalization, and emotional maturity. As a result, a child who forms insecure or disorganized relationships, maybe due to mistreatment or placement in several foster care homes, is more likely to suffer in these areas and exhibit emotional and behavioral challenges.

    As we delve deeper into this topic, we will navigate the intricate web of influences that drive these behaviors. From the powerful force of peer pressure to the allure of projecting a particular social image, urban youth often find themselves at a crossroads where their choices are influenced by a myriad of factors. The accessibility of vaping products and drugs in urban environments, coupled with the lack of awareness about their consequences, further complicates the landscape. Moreover, we will explore how, for some urban youth, vaping and substance use serve as coping mechanisms for the stress, trauma, and mental health challenges they face. The quest for social acceptance and recognition may sometimes lead them down a path of experimentation that can have lasting implications. 
     This exploration is not merely an academic exercise but a crucial endeavor to shed light on the dynamics of urban youth culture and to provide insights that can inform prevention and intervention strategies. By understanding the motivations behind these behaviors, I aim to empower educators, parents, community leaders, and the youth themselves to make informed decisions and foster healthier environments. Each chapter of this book will delve into a different facet of this complex issue, offering perspectives, research findings, and strategies for addressing the challenges posed by vaping and substance use among urban youth. Through knowledge and understanding, we can work collectively to support urban youth in making choices that lead to healthier and more positive outcomes. 
    Join me on this journey of exploration and discovery as we seek to comprehend why urban youth smoke vapes and do drugs to impress their peers and, in doing so, strive to create a better future for them and their communities.

    Students and teachers alike face a dilemma: Why think deeply when we can just take a shortcut by googling something? Why read an article when we can learn from a social media headline? If, as educators, we want to encourage our students to value thoughtfulness and to embrace the effort it takes to reach deep understandings, we must model that behavior ourselves. In Never Stop Asking, author Dr. Nathan Lang-Raad shows K-12 teachers how human brains like to take mental shortcuts, known as heuristics, that allow the brain to save energy and perform more efficiently. These heuristics, however, can lead to illogical thinking, cognitive biases, and fallacies that can hinder critical thinking. 
     
     
     
    With this teacher's must-have guide, you'll: learn about common psychological shortcuts and biases that hinder students and teachers alike; discover the logic and the science behind critical thinking and why it leads to better outcomes; gain strategies to bring critical thinking into the classroom and help students build patience, discipline, and skill; and acknowledge and embrace the digital age in your teaching—without falling victim to its downsides. 
     
     
     
    This is an engaging and important book for K-12 teachers and instructional coaches. Teacher training programs can also be enhanced by the practical wisdom and easy-to-implement strategies included.
