Editorial: DigiCat

Sinopsis

In the refrains of Augustus J. C. Hare's 'The Story of My Life, volumes 4-6', the reader is treated to an intricate tapestry of personal narrative that deftly weaves through the fabric of historical and societal contexts. Hare's prose is characterized by its elegant, detailed, and somewhat didactic style, mirroring the Victorian era's literary traditions. With a historian's attention to detail and a storyteller's flair for the dramatic, these volumes traverse a transformative period of history, marked by cultural and technological shifts that are meticulously chronicled through Hare's experiential lens. The journey within these pages is both expansive and introspective, revealing nuanced observations of an evolving world and providing valuable insights into the 19th-century zeitgeist.

Augustus J. C. Hare was a man deeply embedded in the cultural and intellectual currents of his time. His background as an English cleric and raconteur lent him a unique perspective on a rapidly changing society. His astute observations are often shaped by his travels and interactions with contemporaries, effectively capturing the essence of his epoch. It is this personal connection to the world he lived in that lends 'The Story of My Life' its authenticity and power, marking it as a beacon of historical literature that transcends the boundary of mere autobiography.

Recommended for the discerning reader who seeks a window into the past through the eyes of one who lived it, 'The Story of My Life, volumes 4-6' is an essential work for understanding the Victorian ethos and its impacts on our contemporary society. Hare's vivid recounting offers more than mere history; it invites a deeper appreciation for the personal narratives that collectively shape our understanding of cultural identity and legacy. In the hands of history enthusiasts, literary scholars, or those entranced by the power of personal stories, these volumes promise an enriching journey through the rich tapestry of human experience.

The History and Legacy of...

Charles River Editors

The early 1930s were a tumultuous period for German politics, even in comparison to the ongoing transition to the modern era that caused various forms of chaos throughout the rest of the world. In the United States, reliance on the outdated gold standard and an absurdly parsimonious monetary policy helped bring about the Great Depression. Meanwhile, the Empire of Japan began its ultimately fatal adventurism with the invasion of Manchuria, alienating the rest of the world with the atrocities it committed. Around the same time, Gandhi began his drive for the peaceful independence of India through nonviolent protests against the British.
It was in Germany, however, that the strongest seeds of future tragedy were sown. The struggling Weimar Republic had become a breeding ground for extremist politics, including two opposed and powerful authoritarian entities: the right-wing National Socialists and the left-wing KPD Communist Party. As the 1930s dawned, these two totalitarian groups held one another in a temporary stalemate, enabling the fragile ghost of democracy to continue a largely illusory survival for a few more years.
That stalemate was broken in dramatic fashion on a bitterly cold night in late February 1933, and it was the Nazis who emerged decisively as the victors. A single act of arson against the famous Reichstag building proved to be the catalyst that propelled Adolf Hitler to victory in the elections of March 1933, which set the German nation irrevocably on the path towards World War II. That war would plunge much of the planet into an existential battle that ultimately cost an estimated 60 million lives.

Are you ready to boost your personal productivity—minus the fear and loathing? Are you ready to Banish Your Inner Critic and unleash the creative ideas and personal productivity within you? Help is on the way!
 
Blocked creative ideas. Everybody has one, an inner critic that tells you that others have more talent, you’re just faking it, and that you’ll never have those great creative ideas that seem just out of reach. This inner critic is a subconscious deterrent that stands between the seeds of great creative ideas and the fruits of achievement. It afflicts us with a mental block as deadlines approach, makes us so afraid of being judged that we hold ourselves back and don’t share our expertise, forces us to question our ability to learn ideas and technologies quickly; and makes us doubt, discount, and kill our ideas before they see the light of day.
 
Find a world of creative ideas. Denise Jacobs is a speaker, author and creativity evangelist who speaks at web conferences and consults with tech companies worldwide. As the Founder and Chief Creativity Evangelist of "The Creative Dose", she teaches techniques to make the creative process more fluid, how to make work environments more conducive to personal productivity, and practices for sparking innovation. Now, in Banish Your Inner Critic, Denise Jacobs shows you how to defeat barriers that are holding you back and achieve success through a positive mental attitude.

The Joy Document - Creating a...

Jennifer McGaha

When Jennifer McGaha's grandmother was in her late eighties, Jennifer asked her what her favorite age so far had been. "Fifty-five," her grandmother answered, as though there were something magical about this stage of life. So, in her own fifty-fifth year, Jennifer began to take note. She jotted down her impressions of simple, everyday things that struck her as beautiful or humorous or intriguing and kept a list of all the accomplishments, large and small, that actually mattered to her. 
 
 
 
These observations became Jennifer's Joy Document, a radical act of reclaiming joy and an exercise in paying attention. When you are determined to find joy, almost anything can become revelatory—an Earth Day Whole Foods errand, Claire Saffitz's fruitcake recipe, a harrowing ride in Twinkly Taxi, an evening picnic at Dvorák's Symphony No. 8, or cartwheels in the driveway. While many of us at midlife have found all the things we've strived for (the career, the better life, the organization tools), those things only go so far. And the search for something greater, something truer, begins. Life after fifty becomes not the end or even the middle of life, but a new beginning, another grand adventure with endless opportunities to find joy. The Joy Document includes fifty rollicking and often humorous essays exploring the art of joy and inspiring the rest of us to do the same.
