Beschreibung

Nubian Fortress Plans explores the sophisticated military architecture of Nubian fortresses along the Nile River, revealing their strategic importance in ancient warfare and society. These fortresses weren't mere defensive structures; they served as instruments of control, communication, and resource management. One intriguing aspect is how the Nubians adapted their designs to the unique geography, such as utilizing cataracts and islands for enhanced defense, showcasing their ingenuity in the face of constant threats from Egypt and internal conflicts.

 
The book argues that Nubian fortresses represent a distinct adaptation of military architecture, tailored to their specific environment and challenges, rather than simple imitations of Egyptian designs. By examining the strategic placement, internal layouts, and tactical advantages of these fortresses, the book provides a detailed analysis of Nubian military and social strategies.

 
The book progresses from establishing the historical foundation to analyzing fortress locations, dissecting layouts, and assessing tactical advantages, relying on archaeological data from sites like Buhen and Mirgissa to support its claims.

    A High Price for Freedom -...

    The author and director of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Library Publishing Project gives voice to long silent African Americans from the past, allowing them to tell their own stories that shed new light on critical moments in the Black Freedom Struggle, challenging what we think we know about Black history.  
    History is at its best when new findings and perspectives challenge old ideas and notions about the past, and even overturn common wisdom. 
    What if a former enslaved man in Galveston, Texas, witnessed the first Juneteenth and told a completely different story from what most of us know about that day? Why were slave ships most prone to rebellion, including those carrying the most African women? How has Islam found its way into R&B, soul, jazz, and other American popular music? Who was Benjamin Banneker, really? 
    In A High Price for Freedom, historian Clyde W. Ford addresses these and other questions, amplifying little-known voices from the African American past. In this wide-ranging, impeccably researched book, Ford begins with the 1656 court case of a woman named Elizabeth Key, who won a verdict for her freedom against her would-be enslaver—a victory that would forever change the nature, brutality, and course of American slavery. 
    Ford examines a range of topics, from the role of women in fomenting slave revolts to an in-depth look at how Selma was not really about voting rights or even Martin Luther King, Jr, but about a twenty-six-year-old Black man named Jimmie Lee Jackson who was killed by an Alabama state trooper. As he laying dying in the only hospital that would treat Black people in February 1965, Jimmie Lee whispered to his nurse, a Catholic nun, “Sister, isn’t this a high price for freedom?” 
    Eye-opening, enlightening, and often counterintuitive, this fascinating history includes compelling, heartrending, and factual accounts about people and events in the African American past that teach us things we never learned and challenge the stories we thought we knew.

    Zen master Thick Nhat Hanh, bestselling author of Peace is Every Step and one of the most respected and celebrated religious leaders in the world, delivers a powerful path to happiness through mastering life's most important skill. 
    How do we say what we mean in a way that the other person can really hear? 
    How can we listen with compassion and understanding? 
    Communication fuels the ties that bind, whether in relationships, business, or everyday interactions. Most of us, however, have never been taught the fundamental skills of communication—or how to best represent our true selves. Effective communication is as important to our well-being and happiness as the food we put into our bodies. It can be either healthy (and nourishing) or toxic (and destructive). 
    In this precise and practical guide, Zen master and Buddhist monk Thick Nhat Hanh reveals how to listen mindfully and express your fullest and most authentic self. With examples from his work with couples, families, and international conflicts, The Art of Communicating helps us move beyond the perils and frustrations of misrepresentation and misunderstanding to learn the listening and speaking skills that will forever change how we experience and impact the world.
