Beschreibung

In "Sketches from the Subject and Neighbour Lands of Venice," Edward A. Freeman masterfully intertwines travel writing with historical narrative, offering readers a vivid tapestry of Venetian culture and its surrounding territories. Freeman's literary style is characterized by his eloquent prose and deep introspection, providing a rich exploration of the landscapes, customs, and historical significance of both Venice and its neighboring regions. The book emerges from the Victorian era's fascination with travel and cultural exploration, reflecting the zeitgeist of an age eager to understand the complexities of European identity amid the backdrop of Italy's Renaissance heritage. Edward A. Freeman was not merely a historian but also an ardent traveler, whose passions for history and geography shaped his perspectives on the lands he encountered. His scholarly pursuits and his profound admiration for Italy inspired him to capture the enchanting essence of Venice and its surroundings. Freeman's experiences and observations serve as a lens through which readers can examine the broader historical narratives that define a region renowned for its art, architecture, and multifaceted culture. I highly recommend "Sketches from the Subject and Neighbour Lands of Venice" to enthusiasts of travel literature, history, and Italian culture. Freeman's keen insights and poetic descriptions will transport you to the enchanting canals and vibrant life of Venice, inviting you to ponder the profound connections between place, identity, and memory.

    Prussia, once a powerful and influential German state, traces its origins back to 1525, when it began as a duchy focused on the region near the southeast coast of the Baltic Sea. Over the centuries, it would grow to play a pivotal role in European history, especially through its military and political influence. Prussia was formally dissolved in 1947 by a decision from the Allies, though its disbandment began much earlier in 1932 when German Chancellor Franz von Papen issued an emergency order transferring the powers of the Prussian government to the central state. The state had been slowly losing its autonomy for years before that, following the turbulent events of the early 20th century. 
    At the height of its power, Prussia was ruled by the House of Hohenzollern, a royal family that presided over its expansive territories and built a military machine renowned for its discipline and effectiveness. Prussia's capital was initially Königsberg, but in 1701, it became Berlin when Prussia elevated itself to the status of a kingdom. Over the years, the Kingdom of Prussia became a major player in European affairs, with its well-organized army enabling it to extend its borders and influence across the continent.

    Observers tell us that we will have many jobs and possibly several careers during our lifetimes.  But there is very little practical help available for professionals on how to move between jobs and careers. 
    This audiobook takes the listener through a comprehensive process that will help them to prepare for job search, identify job opportunities, and then maximize their chance of success. 
    The author has worked with over 1,000 senior executives as a career coach.  So, his advice is practical and it is supported by real stories of successes and setbacks. 
    Most people are not aware of the life skills required to manage successful transitions between jobs.  They tend work on their cv and then to make up their own approach to moving forward.   
    They often aim too low.  They do not understand how to prepare properly.  It is not uncommon for them to fail to reach their potential.   When their approach does not work out they blame themselves.    
    It does not need to be this way.  This audiobook increases the possibility of success in your transition process and then in your subsequent career. 
    The original book was written for mid-career professionals.   But the process it describes is relevant for individuals at any stage on their career, from graduation to retirement. 
    This audiobook has four parts: 
    1.    Understanding the basics 
    2.    Building on your strengths 
    3.    Growing the power of your network 
    4.    Finding the right job.

    The Fifth History of Man

    In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
    The Fifth History of Man has a few parting shots at viruses but mostly continues with the world of parasites, from tick disease that tick us off, Old Lyme, Connecticut and Lyme disease, toxoplasmosis, Crazy Cat Lady and her clowder of cats, then on into a discussion of the avatar of parasites: malaria. Our travels will venture down into the valley: Valley Girls, Valspeak, Valley Fever, fungus and fungal infections. We’ll jump into the biology of evolution, Darwin, Huxley and the great debates, the geology of earthquakes, volcanos, the Ring of Fire, and Johnny Cash, and then through the homos: Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Homo sapiens, and once the dust cleared how the opposable thumbs, walking erect, and bigger brains left one man standing, one woman, too. No discussion of human history can leave out the G.O.A.T. of French history, heck, of European history; the man, the legend, Napoleon Bonaparte, loved and admired by everyone, even his enemies. Our path will take us into war & military, World War I versus the 1918 Swine Flu, some Russian history and how Stalin got Lenin wrong.
