The book examines the Fatimid, Ayyubid, Mamluk, and Muhammad Ali dynasties, revealing their political strategies, architectural innovations, and lasting impact on Egyptian identity. Dynastic power consolidation manifested tangibly in Cairo's architectural marvels, such as mosques and public works, reflecting their ambitions and beliefs. Furthermore, Cairo's unique urban identity, characterized by resilience and religious diversity, emerged from these complex historical forces. The book chronologically examines each dynasty, detailing their rise to power, significant architectural projects, and impact on Cairo's urban landscape. It argues that these dynasties collectively shaped Cairo's enduring legacy of artistic and intellectual achievement. By integrating political, architectural, and urban elements, Cairo Dynasties offers a holistic narrative of Cairo's development.

The Student Who Became Master of...

Tabitha Monroe

Jason came to Athens to learn how to become a citizen.

For one week, he is allowed to become a master.

Nineteen-year-old Jason leaves his sheltered life on Delos for the Athenian Academy, where wrestling, philosophy, male beauty, and social hierarchy shape the education of future leaders.

The man he loves is already devoted to another.

Niklo offers Jason tenderness and desire, but his loyalty belongs to the powerful Pericles. Jason accepts friendship in place of possession—until a naval mission transforms his life inside the villa of his mentor, Timarcus.

With Timarcus away, Jason is placed in command of the estate and every enslaved person within it.

Dov and Danni are eighteen-year-old twins trained in music, service, and the arts of pleasure. They are expected to obey Jason.

Instead, they invite him into a game where his title means nothing.

Bound inside his mentor’s chamber, Jason must endure the twins’ carefully controlled test of restraint, pride, and forbidden submission. The longer he refuses to yield, the more clearly he recognizes a desire that Athenian society would condemn in a free adult man.

Then a Spartan student arrives at the Academy.

Demaratos has been trained to understand intimacy through force. Jason offers him a different lesson: trust, kissing, and pleasure without conquest.

Their first encounter ends with an invitation to the villa—and to Dov and Danni.

Explicit, provocative, and intentionally morally complex, The Student Who Became Master of the Villa is an adult M M historical erotica featuring ancient Athens, academy rivals, mutual desire, enslaved twin attendants, master-and-servant roleplay, bondage, erotic humiliation, friendship, and an open ending.

How Polarization Begets...

Thomas L. Brunell, Bernard...

Extreme polarization in American politics is perhaps the most confounding political phenomenon of our time. This book binds together polarization in Congress and polarization in the electorate within an ever-expanding feedback loop. This loop is powered by the discipline exerted by the respective political parties on their Congressional members and district candidates and endorsed by the voters in each Congressional district who must choose between the alternatives offered. Tight national party discipline produces party delegations in Congress that are widely separated from one another but each ideologically narrowly distributed. 
 
 
 
As district constituencies become more polarized and are egged on by activists, parties are further motivated to appeal to their respective bases rather than to voters in the ideological center. America has indeed acquired parties with clear platforms—once thought to be a desirable goal—but these parties are now feuding camps. What resolution might there be? Just as the progressive movement slowly replaced the Gilded Age, might a new reform effort replace the current squabble? Or could an asymmetry develop in the partisan constraints that would lead to ascendancy of the center, or might a new and over-riding issue generate a cross-cutting dimension, opening the door to a new politics? Only the future will tell.

Here Begins the Dark Sea -...

Meredith F. Small

The remarkable story of the cartographic masterpiece—the Venetian mappa mundi—that revolutionized how we see the world.In 1459 a Venetian monk named Fra Mauro completed an astonishing map of the world. Seven feet in diameter, Fra Mauro's mappamundi is the oldest and most complete Medieval map to survive into modernity. And in its time, this groundbreaking mappamundi provided the most detailed description of the known world, incorporating accurate observation, and geographic reality, urging viewers to see water and land as they really existed. Fra Mauro's map was the first in history to show that a ship could circumnavigate Africa, and that the Indian "Sea" was in fact an ocean, enabling international trade to expand across the globe. Acclaimed anthropologist Meredith F. Small reveals how Fra Mauro's mappamundi made cartography into a science rather than a practice based on religion and ancient myths.Here Begins the Dark Sea brings Fra Mauro's masterpiece to life as a work of art and a window into Venetian society and culture. In telling the story of this cornerstone of modern cartography, Small takes the listener on a fascinating journey as she explores the human urge to find our way. Here Begins the Dark Sea is a riveting testament to the undeniable impact Fra Mauro and his mappamundi have had over the past five centuries and still holds relevance today.
