Sinopse

Historical Drama Accuracy explores the fascinating intersection of history and performing arts, examining how playwrights balance historical facts with artistic license. The book delves into the ethical considerations of representing the past on stage, highlighting the impact of dramatic interpretations on public perception and societal memory.

 
Did you know that theatre can wield significant cultural power, shaping public opinion and influencing how we remember historical events? This book uniquely assesses how playwrights grapple with historical accuracy, artistic license, and the interpretation of source material. It emphasizes that the most compelling historical plays respect historical integrity while exploring deeper truths about the human condition.

 
The approach involves examining case studies of prominent historical dramas, from Shakespeare to contemporary works, and analyzing playwrights' choices and their impact on audiences. The book progresses by first establishing a conceptual framework, then examining case studies, and finally offering practical guidelines for playwrights and audiences.

 
It provides tools for critical viewing and proposes a framework for responsible storytelling, guiding readers to thoughtfully engage with dramatic representations of history.

    The late 19th Century was a time of liberation. After the collapse of empires, people of all creeds demanded their equality.We begin with two speeches that represent the old order, by Bismarck. Between the two speeches he went from being Prussia’s last Minister President to being the Germany’s first Chancellor. A statesman in the oldest mold, he argues for nationalist dominance against forces temporal and religious.The counter is given by Sullivan, who excoriates the British government for the Zulu war, asking why the country supported wars of aggression in foreign lands.From there, we move to the liberation of nations and peoples. Louis Kossuth embodied Hungary’s struggle against imperial oppression, Castelar argues for a Spanish republic, and Gambetta for the education of the peasantry in France. Across Europe, a tide rose demanding the government serve the people rather than use them.In America, Lincoln defined the struggle between the Union and Confederacy as the start of universal emancipation and freedom for all men. In contrast, Chief Joseph’s speech drips with pathos, as he lays down his spear forever, desperate to find what is left of his massacred and desolate peoples in the wilderness. After the Civil War ends, Susan Anthony’s speech demands that women should have the vote, as guaranteed in the constitution for all citizens.A series of speeches by Swami Vivekananda follow, given at the first World’s Parliament of Religions. These speeches brought Buddhism and Hinduism into the Anglosphere, and began a trend of searching for spiritual liberation alongside the more material demands of the time.We finish on a lighter tone, as Mark Twain bemoans the decay of the art of lying. In an age of such seriousness, the tall tale fell out of fashion, and the simple joy of telling a fisherman’s tale was lost.

    Discover a powerful methodology for bringing communities together to uncover hidden assets and transform deep-rooted challenges. 
     
    Veteran community organizer Paul Born's work has contributed to lowering cancer rates in Maine, improving mental health for young people in Florida, and reducing poverty rates in Canada by 20 percent. In this much-needed new book, he shares stories of how he was able to catalyze local communities and guide them to make significant progress on seemingly intractable community problems. 
     
    Born has found that the secret to success is to organize and unite around a common agenda. This is not a list of topics, like a meeting agenda, nor a strategic plan. He offers a process for bringing leaders from businesses, human service organizations, and governments together with people who have a lived experience of a specific community problem. A common agenda is a statement of shared aspirations, a map of the assets in the community, and a road map for how to work together to make those aspirations a reality. 
     
    Part I of this book describes how to identify your community's readiness for change; form leadership, action, and strategy teams; create a common agenda; and establish plans for community engagement. Part II presents the approaches and skill sets needed to do the work described in part I. 
     
    Remarkably, enormous systemic problems such as climate change, poverty, disease, racism, housing, and many more issues can be best addressed at the local level. Communities can develop solutions tailored to their unique circumstances and can collaborate at a magnitude that can result in a truly transformative impact. This book shows how to make change happen.

    A free man kidnapped. Twelve years in chains. A truth the world could not ignore.
    In this harrowing memoir, Solomon Northup recounts how he was abducted and sold into slavery despite being a free man. Through brutal labor, cruel masters, and relentless injustice, he clings to hope, intelligence, and the belief that freedom can be reclaimed. His voice is calm, precise, and devastating in its honesty.
    
    Regarded as "one of the most important slave narratives ever written," this firsthand account exposes the reality of American slavery with unmatched clarity and moral force. Northup's story helped fuel the abolitionist movement—and continues to confront readers with truths that still matter today.
    
    If you seek historical truth, human resilience, and a story that reshaped conscience and history, this essential classic belongs in your library.
    
    Open the book—and bear witness to a life that refused to be erased.

    What if the beings we call "aliens" are not invaders, but messengers from higher realms of consciousness, warning us against the dead-end path we are racing toward? What if the true threat to humanity is not an alien invasion, but rather our surrender to machines? And what if the antidote resides in wisdom we abandoned long ago? 
     
    Alien Goddess enters this urgent conversation with a perspective no one else is offering. Drawing on contemporary accounts of contact phenomena, esoteric texts, and ancient mythologies, it asks what happens when a civilization replaces the sacred with the synthetic. Who becomes the architect of human destiny when the soul is written out of the equation? 
     
    Part I—The Messengers: UFOs investigates the possibility that UFO phenomena are visitations from consciousness realms within the liminal spaces of multidimensional realities. 
     
    Part II—The Message: AI critiques the promises of transhumanism and artificial intelligence (AI), exposing the confusion between artificial experiences and true spiritual evolution. 
     
    Part III—The Goddesses of Ascension offers an alternative in the initiatory wisdom of Goddess traditions. 
     
    Alien Goddess is both a warning and a map.

    Forallx is an introduction to sentential logic and first-order predicate logic with identity, logical systems that significantly influenced twentieth-century analytic philosophy. After working through the material in this book, a student should be able to understand most quantified expressions that arise in their philosophical reading. This book treats symbolization, formal semantics, and proof theory for each language. The discussion of formal semantics is more direct than in many introductory texts. Although forall x does not contain proofs of soundness and completeness, it lays the groundwork for understanding why these are things that need to be proven.
    Contents: 
    What is logic?
    Sentential logic
    Truth tables
    Quanti ed logic
    Formal semantics
    Proofs
    Other symbolic notation
    Solutions to selected exercises
