Sinopsis

Earth Mother Origins explores the historical and geographical roots of the Earth Mother figure, examining her significance in Neolithic societies and early agricultural communities. The book argues that this figure is not merely a myth but a symbolic representation of the profound relationship between humans and the land. It highlights how the transition to agriculture during the Neolithic Revolution shaped belief systems centered on fertility and the earth's bounty. Intriguingly, archaeological findings such as figurines and burial sites offer tangible evidence of the Earth Mother's prevalence across diverse cultures. 

 
The book progresses by first defining the Earth Mother figure and key concepts of Neolithic agriculture. It then explores various geographic regions, including the Near East and Europe, examining archaeological evidence in relation to agricultural practices. Finally, it analyzes the socio-economic factors contributing to the rise of Earth Mother worship, touching on practical considerations for modern land stewardship. 

 
By combining archaeology, history, and cultural anthropology, this book offers a unique perspective on humanity's enduring connection to the earth.

The Grounds of Political Legitimacy

Fabienne Peter

Political decisions have the potential to greatly impact our lives. Think of decisions in relation to abortion or climate change, for example. This makes political legitimacy an important normative concern. But what makes political decisions legitimate? Are they legitimate in virtue of having support from the citizens? Democratic conceptions of political legitimacy answer in the affirmative. Such conceptions rightly highlight that legitimate political decision-making must be sensitive to disagreements among the citizens. 
 
 
 
Peter argues that the legitimacy of political decisions doesn't just depend on respect for the citizens' will; and defends a novel hybrid conception of political legitimacy, called the Epistemic Accountability conception. According to this conception, political legitimacy also depends on how political decision-making responds to evidence for what there is most reason to do. The Grounds of Political Legitimacy starts with an overview of the main ways in which philosophers have thought about political legitimacy, and identifies the epistemic accountability conception as an overlooked alternative. Considering the norms that should govern political debate, it examines the role of experts in politics, and probes the responsibilities of democratically elected political leaders and as well as of citizens.

Diadochi The: The History of...

Editors Charles River

On his deathbed, some ancient historians claimed that when he was pressed to name a successor, Alexander the Great muttered that his empire should go “to the strongest”. Other sources claim that he passed his signet ring to his general Perdiccas, thereby naming him successor, but whatever his choices were or may have been, they were ignored. Alexander’s generals, all of them with the loyalty of their own corps at their backs, would tear each other apart in a vicious internal struggle that lasted almost half a century before four factions emerged victorious: Macedonia, the Seleucid Empire in the east, the Kingdom of Pergamon in Asia Minor, and the Ptolemaic dynasty in Egypt. During the course of these wars, Alexander’s only heir, the posthumously born Alexander IV, was murdered, extinguishing his bloodline for ever. 
Although it was an incredibly important period in world history, it is sometimes as confusing as it is frustrating for historians because the allegiances of the generals changed constantly and historical sources are often biased in some regards and utterly lacking in others. Although none of these men were able to replicate Alexander the Great’s territorial success, a few carved out sizable empires and were able to establish long-lasting political dynasties. Ptolemy I brought Egypt back to a central position of power in the region, and Seleucus I built a strong empire on the ruins of ancient Babylonia, but other generals, such as Perdiccas, were killed early on in the fighting and slipped into relative obscurity. Some of the Macedonian generals had a significant impact on the region during their lifetimes, but they left no heirs to carry on their political memories. 
This audiobook chronicles how Alexander’s legendary conquests shaped the next several centuries, and how the successor generals carved out various empires.
