Sinossi

In a world ruled by tradition, the heart dares to dream of freedom.
Set in the glittering yet rigid world of 1870s New York high society, The Age of Innocence follows Newland Archer, a successful young lawyer engaged to the beautiful and proper May Welland. His carefully ordered life is turned upside down when he meets Countess Ellen Olenska, May's unconventional cousin, whose charm and independence challenge the rules of their social world.

Through elegant prose and razor-sharp observation, Edith Wharton explores themes of love versus duty, personal freedom versus societal expectation, and the quiet sacrifices demanded by tradition.

Winner of the 1921 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, The Age of Innocence remains one of the most enduring novels of manners, offering a poignant critique of a society where appearances matter more than truth.

"A brilliant study of love, loss, and the silent compromises of life."
– The New York Times

"Wharton's masterpiece… as subtle as it is devastating."
– The Guardian

    From the second half of the nineteenth century through to World War II, Eastern Europe, especially the territories that formerly made up the Pale of Settlement in the Tsarist Empire, witnessed a Jewish cultural flowering that went hand-in-hand with a multifaceted literary productivity in the Hebrew and Yiddish languages. Accompanied and sometimes directly affected by the dramatic political ruptures of the era, many authors experimented with various modernist poetics in the context of a culturally and literarily closely interwoven milieu. This beautifully illustrated catalogue presents for the first time some of the key figures of the era, including in each case a portrait of the author and a close reading of selected texts, including Yosef Ḥayim Brenner, Leah Goldberg, Moyshe Kulbak, and Deborah Vogel. Of particular interest here is the productive entanglement of cultures and literatures, of cultural contact and transfer, and the significance of space and place for the development of modern Jewish literatures.

    The Old Book That Predicted Everything is a remarkable collection of prophecies that has intrigued scholars, mystics, and skeptics alike for centuries. Passed down through generations, this ancient text contains predictions that seem to transcend time, offering insights into future events with eerie accuracy. What makes these prophecies particularly fascinating is not only their mysterious nature but also the fact that many of them appear to have come true in ways that could not have been foreseen by those who first recorded them. 
    The origins of the Old Book are shrouded in mystery. It is believed to have been written by multiple authors over a period of time, each contributing their own visions of the future. Some claim that the text is divinely inspired, while others argue that it is the product of keen observation and insight. Regardless of its origin, the prophecies contained within have captured the imagination of those who have studied them. From predictions about world events to the fate of individuals, the Old Book seems to have anticipated numerous occurrences long before they happened. 
    One of the key reasons the Old Book has garnered so much attention is the sheer breadth of its predictions. It spans a wide range of topics, from natural disasters and political upheavals to technological advancements and changes in human behavior. What makes these predictions all the more compelling is the fact that they often appear to be remarkably specific. For example, prophecies about wars, leaders, and even entire civilizations have unfolded with uncanny precision, suggesting that the Old Book holds a profound understanding of the forces that shape our world.

    Effective communication serves as the bedrock of personal and professional success. It enables us to express our ideas clearly, persuade others, and forge stronger relationships. This chapter delves into the essential elements that make up effective communication, emphasizing the need to understand its fundamental principles. 
    At the core of effective communication lies the understanding of its basics. This involves recognizing the different modes of communication—verbal, non-verbal, and written—and knowing when and how to use each mode effectively. Communication is not just about speaking or writing well; it's equally about listening. Active listening skills are crucial as they allow individuals to interpret both the words and the non-verbal cues sent by others, enhancing mutual understanding. 
    The distinction between verbal and non-verbal communication is another significant aspect. Verbal communication uses words to convey messages, which can be in oral or written form. In contrast, non-verbal communication includes gestures, facial expressions, body language, and even the tone of voice. Mastering both forms is vital for effective communication, as non-verbal cues often speak louder than words.
