Synopsis

This historical and analytical text traces the development of the Athenian political system from its early origins to the democracy of Aristotle's time. It provides a detailed account of the various constitutional changes, reforms, and the specific duties of magistrates and governing bodies. The work offers a unique glimpse into the practical workings of ancient democracy, distinct from the theoretical approach found in other philosophical texts. It serves as both a historical record and a critical examination of civic administration.

    In this intimate and riveting memoir, Best American Essayist Nicole Graev Lipson breaks through the ready-made stories of womanhood, rescuing truth from the fiction that infiltrates our lives. 
      
    What does it take to escape the plotlines mapped onto us? Searching for clues in the work of her literary foremothers, Lipson untangles what it means to be a girl, a woman, a lover, a partner, a daughter, and a mother in a world all too ready to reduce us to stock characters. Whether she’s testing the fragile borders of fidelity, embracing the taboo power of female friendship, escaping her family for the solitude of the mountains, grappling with what to do with her frozen embryos, or letting go of the children she imagined for the ones she’s raising, Lipson pushes beyond the easy, surface stories we tell about ourselves to brave less certain territory.  
      
    As Lipson journeys through this thorny terrain, literature becomes her lodestar. Kate Chopin’s erotic story “The Storm” helps her reckon with the longings stirring below the surface of her marriage. Watching her son absorb the stifling codes of manhood, she finds unlikely parenting inspiration in Philip Roth’s most cartoonish overbearing mother. Summoning Gwendolyn Brooks, she asks, Can destroying one’s frozen embryos be understood as a maternal act? And accompanied by Shakespeare’s gender-bending heroine Rosalind, she seizes on the truest meaning of loving her oldest child.  
      
    Risky and revealing, nourishing and affirming, rigorous and sexy, Mothers and Other Fictional Characters is a shimmering love letter to our forgotten selves—and the ones we’re still becoming.

    Combining the wisdom of Witchcraft with perspectives on gay theory to make the path accessible to all. 
     
     
     
    When Christopher Penczak was introduced to Witchcraft, he found a spiritual path through which he could honor and embrace his homosexuality. In Gay Witchcraft, Penczak's clearheaded theory and practice combine to create a classic book of Witchcraft focused on the perspective of the gay community. 
     
     
     
    Penczak's writing has made it much easier for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer people interested in practicing any form of Witchcraft. His willingness to share his own personal journey and the foundations that made the Craft accessible allows listeners to find their own ways of practice. This book explores the history of Paganism and offers a compendium of spells, meditations, ceremonies, and affirmations that will enrich both the novice and the experienced practitioner seeking out new views of myth, ritual, and healing.

    The German air power has been largely spent. It is behind the times and its first-rate men are mostly dead or disheartened or worn out. 
        In 1914 the Hohenzollern army was the best in the world. Behind that screaming little defective in Berlin there is nothing of the sort... Yet our military ‘experts’ discuss the waiting phantom. In their imaginations it is perfect in its equipment and invincible in its discipline. Sometimes it is to strike a decisive ‘blow’ through Spain and North Africa and on, or march through the Balkans, march from the Danube to Ankara, to Persia, to India, or ‘crush Russia’, or ‘pour’ over the Brenner into Italy. The weeks pass and the phantom does none of these things-for one excellent reason. It does not exist to that extent. Most of such inadequate guns and munitions as it possessed must have been taken away form it and fooled away in Hitler's silly feints to invade Britain. And its raw jerry-built discipline is wilting under the creeping realisation that the Blitzkrieg is spent, and the war is coming home to roost.
