  The rise of online education has been nothing short of revolutionary. Once considered an alternative to traditional schooling, it has now become a dominant force in the academic world. Institutions worldwide have embraced digital learning platforms, promising accessibility, affordability, and convenience. Students can earn degrees from prestigious universities without ever stepping into a classroom, and working professionals can upskill at their own pace. The appeal is undeniable, but beneath the surface, there are unsettling truths that often go unnoticed.  
    
  This book seeks to uncover the realities of online education—both its promises and its pitfalls. While it has opened doors for many, it has also introduced challenges that institutions and students alike struggle to address. The marketing around digital learning often highlights its flexibility and cost-effectiveness, but it rarely delves into issues such as hidden expenses, declining academic quality, and the mental health impact of isolated learning. Many students enroll in online programs believing they are receiving the same level of education as their on-campus counterparts, only to discover that the experience falls short of their expectations.  
    
  The influence of big tech companies has further complicated the landscape. These corporations play a major role in shaping the future of education, often prioritizing profits over student outcomes. From data privacy concerns to the rise of artificial intelligence in grading and instruction, online learning has become as much about business as it is about education. Meanwhile, employers remain skeptical about online degrees, leaving graduates questioning the true value of their qualifications.

  Vergil - The Poets Life

  Sarah Ruden

  A biography of Vergil, Rome’s greatest poet, by the acclaimed translator of the Aeneid 
   
  The Aeneid stands as a towering work of Classical Roman literature and a gripping dramatization of the best and worst of human nature. In the process of creating this epic poem, Vergil (70–19 BCE) became the world’s first media celebrity, a living legend. 
   
  But the real Vergil is a shadowy figure; we know that he was born into a modest rural family, that he led a private and solitary life, and that, in spite of poor health and unusual emotional vulnerabilities, he worked tirelessly to achieve exquisite new effects in verse. Vergil’s most famous work, the Aeneid, was commissioned by the emperor Augustus, who published the epic despite Vergil’s dying wish that it be destroyed. 
   
  Sarah Ruden, widely praised for her translation of the Aeneid, uses evidence from Roman life and history alongside Vergil’s own writings to make careful deductions to reconstruct his life. Through her intimate knowledge of Vergil’s work, she brings to life a poet who was committed to creating something astonishingly new and memorable, even at great personal cost.

  Rome Reborn

  In the aftermath of Rome's collapse, a forgotten boy emperor returns not to reclaim the throne—but to reinvent what it means to rule. 
  Rome Reborn follows the extraordinary transformation of Romulus II, a discarded figure in the shadow of empire, who dares to rebuild the West not through legions, but through law, unity, and reform. As warlords claim kingdoms and old cities decay, Romulus breathes life into a fragile republic formed from shattered provinces and weary citizens. 
  From forging an accord with the Goths to reuniting East and West through diplomacy, and reviving Latin as a living tongue, Romulus steers a new kind of Roman state—one built on pluralism, merit, and civil resilience. But the past is never far behind. With Odoacer watching, power consolidating in Italy, and threats looming from all sides, the republic survives not through conquest, but through radical vision and political courage. 
  This first volume in the Twilight Reshaped series tells the alternate story of a Rome that didn't fall completely—but reshaped itself at the edge of the world.
