Feudal Order Dynamics

Bridget Langston

Translator A Ai

Summary

Feudal Order Dynamics explores the complexities of feudalism in medieval Europe, challenging the notion of the Middle Ages as a "Dark Age." It examines how feudal systems shaped land control, labor, and social hierarchies, arguing that understanding feudalism is crucial for grasping the roots of modern societal structures. For example, the book highlights how feudal land tenure influenced modern property laws, and how echoes of feudal social structures persist in contemporary class systems.

 
The book approaches the topic by diving into key concepts like vassalage and manorialism. The book analyzes the economic underpinnings of feudalism, from agricultural production to the role of the Church, and explores the social dimensions, including the lives of nobles, clergy, and peasants. It emphasizes that feudalism was a dynamic system influenced by regional variations, economic pressures, and social conflicts.

 
The analysis progresses from foundational concepts to economic and social dimensions, culminating in an exploration of feudalism's adaptability during crises like the Black Death.

Actual Real-Life Role-Playing...

Victoria Ichizli-Bartels

A life gamer shares her philosophy of life and shows how easy it can be to live gamefully and joyfully. 
You might not know it yet, but you and everyone on Earth are experimental philosophers; building our view on life, and the worlds inside and outside us. We experience, research, and discover these worlds, beginning in childhood and continuing to do so for as long as we live.  
Philosophers have discussed life and games over many centuries, and in most cases, they have seen them as separate entities. In recent times, the benefit of games on our well-being and the prosperity of humanity has been highlighted, but these works still consider reality and games to be utterly different. 
This book boldly claims, “Life is a game, and games are life.” 
It explores the evidence for this statement and extends it to show that anything in life is not only a game but also an actual real-life role-playing game and, beyond that, a Choose Your Own Adventure. 
The author of the book also presents three actual real-life role-playing games you can play where you are right now, regardless of the circumstances in your life and how you feel about them and yourself. These simple but unique games will help you return to the joyful path of experiencing life wholeheartedly.  
As you read, you will become aware of the skill sets of a self-anthropologist, kaizen master, and self-motivational game designer, which merge into the synergy of a successful and happy life gamer. 
Don’t wait any longer: Open this book, and start playing the role-playing game of life.

Carl Jung and Alcoholics...

Ian McCabe

The author visited the archives of the headquarters of A.A. in New York, and discovered new communications between Carl Jung and Bill Wilson. For the first time this correspondence shows Jung's respect for A.A. and in turn, its influence on him. In particular, this research shows how Bill Wilson was encouraged by Jung's writings to promote the spiritual aspect of recovery as opposed to the conventional medical model which has failed so abysmally. The book overturns the long-held belief that Jung distrusted groups. Indeed, influenced by A.A.'s success, Jung gave "complete and detailed instructions" on how the A.A. group format could be developed further and used by "general neurotics". Wilson was an advocate of treating some alcoholics with LSD in order to deflate the ego and induce a spiritual experience. The author explains how alcoholism can be diagnosed and understood by professionals and the lay person; by examining the detailed case histories of Jung, the author gives graphic examples of its psychological and behavioural manifestations.

Portuguese Made Easy - Beginner...

Lingo Wave

We broke our new series on learning Portuguese down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series.
This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Portuguese.
In Unit 1 you will hear Portuguese decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said.
Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Portuguese speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language.
By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Portuguese. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Portuguese at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Portuguese, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences.
In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

1. Asking about family
2. Asking about relationship status

Break Through the Limits of the...

Joseph Selbie

A life-changing guide to understanding your brain and how to change it—for good.Break Through the Limits of the Brain explores the neuroscience of sacred, superconscious experience. It offers proven ways to break through the brain’s limits into a life-changing, life-enhancing awareness that is beyond our everyday consciousness; an awareness that is intuitive, creative, energized, joyful, and spirit-filled. Selbie explains how and why the brain’s neural circuits reinforce thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that keep us immersed in limited conscious awareness—and how radical neuroplasticity enables our innate ability to rewire the brain to break through to unlimited superconscious awareness. The book offers many practices: the Hong Sau technique of meditation for deepening concentration, energization exercises for increasing life-force and vitality, methodical introspection techniques for identifying neurally reinforced negative patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior and affirmations for directly rewiring them. These practices will help you bring superconscious awareness into your life that enables, awakens, and supports success, vitality, creativity, health, peace of mind, and lasting, fulfilling happiness.Break Through the Limits of the Brain provides strong scientific support for superconscious awareness; scientific support provided by quantum physics and M-theory for the existence of a subtle, nonlocal reality; a reality in which we exist simultaneously with physical reality; a reality of which we can become aware by breaking through the limits of the brain. The book debunks scientific materialism’s brain-based explanation for consciousness and intelligence—the brain-as-supercomputer model—and explains the view of many prominent and open-minded scientists that an all-pervading intelligent consciousness is not only the source of our own consciousness but also the foundation of reality—an age-old sacred belief shared by saints, sages, mystics, and those who’ve had near-death experiences.Meditation is a central theme of the book—what it is; how to do it; why it works; its physical, mental, and emotional benefits as measured by neuroscientists; and how it rewires the brain for us to experience superconscious awareness and to achieve whatever we put our mind to.
