Sinopsis

In "New Lights on Old Paths," Charles Foster presents a contemplative exploration of traditional themes through the lens of contemporary thought. Employing a lyrical prose style imbued with philosophical inquiries, Foster revisits historical narratives and spiritual teachings, seeking to unveil their relevance in the modern context. The book weaves together insights from various disciplines, including theology, literature, and personal reflection, creating a rich tapestry that encourages readers to reevaluate their own paths within the framework of time-honored wisdom. Foster, known for his interdisciplinary approach and deeply personal writing, draws from his extensive background in philosophy and literature. His journey as a naturalist and his commitment to seeking understanding in both the external world and the internal landscape have led him to craft this volume. Inspired by his diverse experiences and profound questions about existence, Foster invites readers to engage in a dialogue with the past that informs their present and shapes their future. This book is a must-read for those seeking a deeper understanding of the connections between past wisdom and contemporary challenges. Its reflective tone and insightful observations make it a valuable resource for anyone interested in personal growth and philosophical inquiry. Through "New Lights on Old Paths," Foster encourages us to illuminate our own journeys with the knowledge of those who have walked before us.

    WINNER OF THE 2024 PULITZER PRIZE FOR GENERAL NONFICTIONNamed a Best Book of the Year by The New Yorker, The Economist, Time, The New Republic, and the Financial Times.Immersive and gripping, an intimate story of a deadly accident outside Jerusalem that unravels a tangle of lives, loves, enmities, and histories over the course of one revealing, heartbreaking day.Five-year-old Milad Salama is excited for a school trip to a theme park on the outskirts of Jerusalem. On the way, his bus collides with a semitrailer. His father, Abed, gets word of the crash and rushes to the site. The scene is chaos—the children have been taken to different hospitals in Jerusalem and the West Bank; some are missing, others cannot be identified. Abed sets off on an odyssey to learn Milad’s fate. It is every parent’s worst nightmare, but for Abed it is compounded by the maze of physical, emotional, and bureaucratic obstacles he must navigate because he is Palestinian. He is on the wrong side of the separation wall, holds the wrong ID to pass the military checkpoints, and has the wrong papers to enter the city of Jerusalem. Abed’s quest to find Milad is interwoven with the stories of a cast of Jewish and Palestinian characters whose lives and histories unexpectedly converge.In A Day in the Life of Abed Salama, Nathan Thrall—hailed for his “severe allergy to conventional wisdom” (Time)—offers an indelibly human portrait of the struggle over Israel/Palestine and a new understanding of the tragic history and reality of one of the most contested places on earth.A Macmillan Audio production from Metropolitan Books.

    Villages of Poland hide the lost secrets of World War II 
     
     
     
    1944: Heavy footfalls thud on the road on a rainy May night. A band of gunmen scour a hilltop farm, acting on rumors that it harbors a Jewish family. For 18 months, the Rozeneks have been hiding safely, but their luck is about to run out. Only one from the family of six will live to see the sunrise. Sixteen-year-old Hena Rozenek shelters in the woods until morning . . . and then she runs. 
     
     
     
    Forty years later: Holocaust survivor Sam Rakowski Ron has lived in the United States for decades, never thinking he could return to the Polish village he fled as a teenager. But now he's ready to talk about what he heard, what he saw, and what he knows about two separate families of cousins who were his neighbors, and presumably were killed during the war. The story Poland presents to the world is that Poles saved more Jews than citizens of any other nation, that any murders in Poland were committed by Nazis and Nazis alone. But Sam, while defending his countrymen, suspects a painful truth. The stories he shares with his younger cousin, Judy, an investigative journalist, send them off on a decades-long journey unlike any other to find out what happened to the Rozenek family and ultimately reveal the secrets the Polish government is still desperate to keep.

    In the Global South, Indigenous and Native people continue to live under colonial relations within formally independent nation-states. Sebastian Garbe offers a critical perspective on contemporary expressions of international solidarity and transnational advocacy. He combines approaches from critical race and decolonial studies with an activist ethnography on networked spaces of encounters created through solidarity activism by Mapuche and non-Mapuche actors. Departing from those experiences, this book not only presents potential pitfalls of transnational advocacy but suggests new ways of understanding and practicing solidarity.
