When Money Talks - A History of...

Frank L. Holt

Coinage—it is one of the most successful and consistent technologies ever invented. Nothing else we still use in everyday life has a history quite like it. Look around at all the things that would bewilder a Greek, Roman, or Renaissance ancestor; then, dig into your purse or pocket for that one artifact that they would immediately recognize. Historian Frank L. Holt takes us on a journey through the history of numismatics, the study of coins—one of the oldest and most important contributions to the arts and humanities. 
 
 
 
For 2600 years, poets, economists, philosophers, historians, and theologians have pondered the mysteries of money. Who invented coins, and why? Does coinage function beyond our control? How has it changed world history and culture? What does numismatics reveal about our past that could never be discovered from any other source? How has numismatics advanced using modern science? Does it still suffer from racist ideas about physiognomy and phrenology? The approach taken in this book is as multifaceted as coined money itself. Coins are integral to our economic, social, political, religious, and cultural history. When Money Talks explores each aspect of coinage, and takes a special interest in how coins have appeared in literature and pop culture, ranging in its analysis from Greek drama and the New Testament to TV sitcoms and meme theory.

Mary Wollstonecraft - The...

Hector Davidson

Mary Wollstonecraft was a pioneering British writer and philosopher whose ideas on women’s rights and education laid the foundation for modern feminism. Born on April 27, 1759, in Spitalfields, London, she grew up in a time when society severely restricted women's opportunities. Despite these limitations, Wollstonecraft’s determination, intellect, and relentless pursuit of knowledge allowed her to challenge the status quo and advocate for gender equality. Her life was shaped by personal struggles, societal constraints, and an unwavering belief in the power of education.
Wollstonecraft’s early years were marked by financial instability and familial hardships. Her father, Edward Wollstonecraft, mismanaged the family’s wealth, frequently moving the household in pursuit of failed business ventures. This instability forced Mary and her siblings into difficult circumstances, with her witnessing firsthand the consequences of economic insecurity. More troubling, her father was reportedly abusive, particularly towards her mother, which deeply affected Mary’s views on marriage and male authority. Unlike many girls of her time, who received little to no formal education, Mary sought knowledge independently. She read extensively, developed a strong moral compass, and displayed an early inclination toward questioning societal norms.
One of the most influential figures in her formative years was Fanny Blood, a close friend whose intellect and independence inspired Mary. Their friendship was instrumental in shaping Wollstonecraft’s aspirations and her desire for a life beyond the domestic sphere. In pursuit of financial independence, she worked as a governess and later as a teacher, experiences that would inform her views on education.
