  From author of The Fourth Trimester, a guide for women of any age who feel out of touch with their body and their true desires but want to connect with the power of their sexuality.Women experience so many crossroads at the different stages in our lives—these might include exploring sexuality, beginning a relationship, becoming a mother, trying to get pregnant, losing a baby, in perimenopause or menopause, leaving a marriage. At these thresholds, our bodies change, our relationship to sexuality changes, and our desires can become mysterious. Most of us don’t have the language, information, or courage to communicate about these changes, so we are left feeling confused, lost or broken. Kimberly Ann Johnson, sexological bodyworker and Somatic Experiencing practitioner, has helped thousands of women connect with their bodies and desires and put their pieces back together. In Erotic Seasons, she offers profound insights to women at all stages. Erotic Seasons guides women toward a revolutionary reckoning with sexuality. Grounded in understanding the female body in our monthly, seasonal, and lifetime rhythms, the book guides readers to locate themselves in their own anatomy and nervous system patterns. Kimberly reframes the archetypes of the female lifespan—maiden, mother, virgin, crone—for women today and shares powerful stories of women across generations, helping readers orient to the realities and mysteries of each life stage. Then, with this knowledge, women can experience sexuality that allows us to become more present, awake, and alive throughout our lives.

  A Pathway to American Renewal -...

  This challenging and inspiring collection of essays constructively frames the story of Black America—not as a tragedy involving helpless victims, but as a model for the nation. Scholars and grassroots leaders recount the history—the gritty, painful, but often triumphant account of what blacks accomplished after slavery was ended. Denied access to the institutions of white America, they built their own churches, schools, hotels, and a host of other successful enterprises. Their resilience produced amazing increases in literacy, family formation, and income. 
   
   
   
  Today's unsung grassroots leaders are the living evidence of the power of resilience. They use their stories of overcoming adversity and their own fallibility to help others. The organizations they create heal their communities. 
   
   
   
  This volume presents the insights of scholars who warn of the dangerous forces that threaten to shackle the ability of blacks to succeed today. They warn that, by accepting the notion that black adversity continues to be the product of systemic racism and is therefore unchangeable, no one would need to step up to the realities of a responsible life. This kind of thinking has led to lowering standards in education and even in the judicial system. The scholars outline positive paths to the future.

  On the Duty of Civil Disobedience

  Henry David Thoreau

  What does it mean to stand alone against the tide of conformity? Henry David Thoreau's On the Duty of Civil Disobedience is a rallying cry for the individual conscience in a world that often demands silent compliance. Written in 1849, this powerful essay transcends its time, offering an enduring blueprint for resisting injustice through peaceful defiance.
  Thoreau's words are both a philosophical meditation and a practical guide. With piercing clarity and quiet rebellion, he challenges the reader to examine their relationship with authority, urging them to act according to principle rather than convenience. But this is no fiery manifesto—it is a calm, deliberate reflection on the moral duty of each person to refuse complicity in systems of oppression.
  This essay is not just for dreamers or idealists; it speaks to anyone who has ever questioned whether they have the courage to say "no." Thoreau's call resonates with movements for freedom and equality across the ages, from Gandhi to Martin Luther King Jr. It dares us to ask: Are we citizens of the state, or citizens of justice?

  Poetics

  Aristotle

  Aristotle's Poetics (Greek: Περὶ ποιητικῆς; Latin: De Poetica) is the earliest surviving work of dramatic theory and first extant philosophical treatise to focus on literary theory. In it, Aristotle offers an account of what he calls "poetry" (a term that derives from a classical Greek term, ποιητής, that means "poet; author; maker" and in this context includes verse drama – comedy, tragedy, and the satyr play – as well as lyric poetry and epic poetry). They are similar in the fact that they are all imitations but different in the three ways that Aristotle describes: Differences in music rhythm, harmony, meter and melody. Difference of goodness in the characters.Difference in how the narrative is presented: telling a story or acting it out. In examining its "first principles", Aristotle finds two: 1) imitation and 2) genres and other concepts by which that of truth is applied/revealed in the poesis. His analysis of tragedy constitutes the core of the discussion. Although Aristotle's Poetics is universally acknowledged in the Western critical tradition, "almost every detail about his seminal work has aroused divergent opinions". The work was lost to the Western world for a long time. It was available in the Middle Ages and early Renaissance only through a Latin translation of an Arabic version written by Averroes.Aristotle's work on aesthetics consists of the Poetics, Politics and Rhetoric. The Poetics is specifically concerned with drama. At some point, Aristotle's original work was divided in two, each "book" written on a separate roll of papyrus.
