Beschreibung

He tells us that one day he was walking through the quiet streets of Seville when, for no apparent reason, he decided to enter the San Jerónimo neighborhood. There were some merchants who were full of joy, everyone sang and there was a wonderful atmosphere.
When he was about to leave the fair, a young man arrived, he asked him to please give him the photo of his beloved. Bécquer agreed and the boy recognized the portrait of the young woman immediately, told him that it was Amparo, a maiden who lived with them and that she was an orphan, that no one knew the whereabouts of her parents. Without further ado, the protagonist left Seville and returned 10 years later.
When he returned, everything had changed a lot, but the essence of the city was maintained and he remembered that happy fair, so he decided to return. To her surprise, the joy of that time no longer reigned and through a merchant she found out that some men had taken Amparo from Seville after fighting a lot because she was the daughter of a very wealthy family.

    Birth Control - The Insidious...

    Modern medicine should make pregnancy and childbirth safer for all. But in Birth Control, award-winning journalist Allison Yarrow reveals how women are controlled, traumatized, injured, and even killed because of the traditionalist practices of medical professionals and hospitals. 
     
     
     
    Ever since doctors stole control of birth from midwives in the nineteenth century, women have been steamrolled by a male-dominated medical establishment that has everyone convinced that birthing bodies are inherently flawed and that every pregnancy is a crisis that it alone can "solve." Misogyny and racism, not scientific evidence and support, shape the overwhelming majority of America's four million annual births. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on extensive reporting, expert interviews, an original survey of 1,300 mothers, and her own personal experiences, Yarrow documents how modern maternal health care is insidiously, purposefully designed to take power from women to the detriment of their physical and mental health—not just during labor, but for years after. She then shows a better way, exploring solutions both cutting-edge and ancient to—finally—return power and control to birthing people.

    Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (October 2, 1869 to 30 January 1948) was an Indian lawyer, thinker, anti-colonial activist, and political ethicist who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British rule. He inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahātmā (from Sanskrit, meaning great-souled, or venerable), first applied to him in South Africa in 1914, is used worldwide. The following is a June 4th 1947 speech Gandhi gave, in Hindi, after a meeting with British Viceroy Louis Mountbatten.

    A Roving Eye - Selected Essays

    R.W. Johnson's articles and essays travel far beyond Southern Africa, reaching readers across continents. Their appeal lies not only in their acuity but also in his exceptional range of subjects – political, historical and cultural. As a former Oxford don and a leading international commentator, Johnson remains unmatched as an interpreter of national and world events.
    Whether he's writing about politics in South Africa, Europe or the United States, the new space race, the leading personalities of our time, or even soccer, his views are always sharp, clear, deeply informed and original.
    These essays belong unmistakably to the tradition of George Orwell. Orwell aspired to make political writing an art form, but his finest essays – even those on seemingly trivial subjects such as boys' comics – revealed both a penetrating intelligence and remarkable breadth. Johnson's writing is similar in spirit: like Orwell's, his essays can be read consecutively or dipped into at random, each one offering something striking and original.
    The result is A Roving Eye, a book that is not just distinctive but truly unique, marked by depth, range, humanity and a rare sophistication.
    R.W. Johnson, author of 17 books and innumerable articles, attended schools in the UK and South Africa, did his first degree at the University of Natal and was then a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford. For 26 years he was a Fellow and Tutor at Magdalen College, Oxford and he remains a Fellow of the College. An expert in French, British, American and South African politics, his books have ranged over all these interests and for many years he also wrote for The (London) Times, Sunday Times, the London Review of Books, Le Monde Diplomatique and other titles in the international media. Johnson's writings have been widely praised and have often excited controversy. He is a master of the essay form and his essays have had a wide circulation. He is married to the Russian scholar, Irina Filatova, and they live in Cape Town.
