Synopsis

Speech Moments explores the profound impact of rhetoric, dissecting historical and political speeches to understand how they shaped events and influenced generations. The book argues that speeches are not mere reflections of their time, but active agents of change. It investigates the intricate interplay between rhetorical techniques, historical contexts, and tangible consequences. By understanding these elements, readers gain insights into how leaders and movements harness language to mobilize populations or inspire hope.

 
The book's approach is unique, focusing on detailed textual analysis, historical circumstances, and long-term impact. It examines primary sources like speech transcripts and news coverage alongside secondary sources. Speech Moments introduces core rhetorical concepts such as ethos, pathos, and logos, before delving into specific speeches. Each chapter provides a comprehensive analysis, exploring the historical backdrop, the speech itself, and its lasting effects. The book synthesizes case studies to identify broader patterns of consequential oratory.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with rhetorical concepts and then moving to specific speeches, culminating in broader principles of effective oratory. By examining how well-crafted oratory transcends its immediate context, the book emphasizes the enduring role of communication in the political landscape. Readers will develop critical listening skills and a deeper understanding of political discourse, empowering them to evaluate speeches more effectively.

  • Somatic Experiencing - Healing Trauma through the Body's Wisdom - cover

    Somatic Experiencing - Healing...

    Trauma is a deeply impactful event that can leave lasting scars on the body and mind. While traditionally associated with physical injury or life-threatening events, trauma also encompasses psychological and emotional experiences that overwhelm the body's ability to cope. These experiences can range from major events, such as accidents, abuse, or natural disasters, to more subtle forms of chronic stress and neglect. Regardless of the cause, trauma has profound effects on the nervous system and the way individuals experience the world around them. 
    When a person faces a traumatic event, their body enters a state of heightened alertness, preparing to respond with fight, flight, or freeze reactions. These responses are governed by the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which is responsible for managing involuntary bodily functions like heart rate, respiration, and digestion. In a traumatic situation, the ANS activates the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), triggering the fight or flight response to protect the individual. If neither response is possible, the freeze response takes over, which can lead to feelings of paralysis or disassociation. These instinctual reactions are designed to protect, but when the trauma is unresolved, the nervous system may remain stuck in a heightened state of alertness. 
    The effects of trauma are not just psychological but are also deeply physiological. When the body remains in this heightened state of arousal, it can disrupt the normal functioning of various bodily systems, leading to symptoms such as chronic pain, tension, digestive issues, or sleep disturbances. This state of dysregulation can also affect the brain, impairing areas responsible for memory, emotional regulation, and decision-making. The longer this state persists, the more difficult it becomes for the individual to return to a sense of normalcy, and the trauma can become entrenched in both the body and mind.

  • The Cancel Culture Panic - How an American Obsession Went Global - cover

    The Cancel Culture Panic - How...

    In this incisive new work, Adrian Daub analyzes the global spread of cancel culture discourse as a moral panic, showing that, though its object is fuzzy, talk of cancel culture in global media has become a preoccupation of an embattled liberalism. There are plenty of conservative voices who gin up worries about cancel culture to advance their agendas. But more remarkable perhaps is that it is centrist, even left-leaning, media that have taken up the rallying cry and really defined the outlines of what cancel culture is supposed to be. 
     
     
     
    From French crusades against "le wokisme" via British fables of the "loony left" to a German obsession with campus anecdotes to a global revolt against "gender studies": countries the world over have developed culture war narratives in conflict with the US, and, above all, its universities—narratives that they themselves borrowed from the US. 
     
     
     
    Who exactly is afraid of cancel culture? To trace how various global publics have been so quickly convinced that cancel culture exists and that it poses an existential problem, Daub compares the cancel culture panic to moral panics past, investigating the powerful hold that the idea of "being cancelled" has on people around the world.

    This collection brings together three powerful narratives from diverse cultures, each telling stories of cleverness, bravery, and the battle between good and evil. 
    The first story takes you through the myths of The Trickster Gods, devious and mischievous deities who use wit and cunning to challenge the status quo. Often playing pranks on gods and humans alike, these figures represent chaos and creativity, teaching important lessons about the consequences of trickery and the unpredictable nature of life. From the Norse Loki to the African Anansi, these tricksters serve as both villains and saviors, weaving their own kind of order out of disorder. 
    Next, venture into The Heroes of Myth, timeless figures whose valor and determination have inspired generations. These legendary warriors—like Hercules, Achilles, and Perseus—embody the ideals of courage, honor, and the willingness to face great challenges for the greater good. Their stories, filled with monsters, gods, and impossible feats, have shaped the way we view heroism and sacrifice across cultures and time periods. 
    Finally, explore Native American Legends, a rich tapestry of stories passed down through generations of indigenous peoples. These legends highlight the deep connection between humans, nature, and the spiritual world. From powerful tricksters like Coyote to brave heroes who protect their communities, these myths are filled with wisdom, moral lessons, and reflections on the balance between the material and spiritual realms. 
    Tricksters and Heroes invites readers to embrace the complexity of human nature through the lens of mythology, where mischief, valor, and everything in between reveal truths about the world we live in.

    This program is read by the author.In his forceful follow-up to Moneyland, Oliver Bullough unravels the dark secret of how Britain placed itself at the center of the global offshore economy and at the service of the worst people in the world.The Suez Crisis of 1956 was the nadir of Britain's twentieth century, the moment when the once-superpower was bullied into retreat. "Great Britain has lost an empire and not yet found a role," said Dean Acherson, a former US secretary of state. Acheson's line has entered into the canon of great quotations: but it was wrong. Britain had already found a role. The leaders of the world just hadn't noticed it yet.Butler to the World reveals how Britain came to assume its role as the center of the offshore economy. Written polemically, but studded with witty references to the butlers of popular fiction, it demonstrates how so many elements of modern Britain have been put at the service of the world's oligarchs.The Biden administration is putting corruption at the heart of its foreign policy, and that means it needs to confront Britain's role as the foremost enabler of financial crime and ill behavior. This audiobook lays bare how London has deliberately undercut U.S. regulations for decades, and calls into question the extent to which Britain can be considered a reliable ally.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press
