Beschreibung

In 'MOSCOW' by Frederick Whishaw, readers are taken on a journey through the streets of 19th century Moscow, exploring the lives of the Russian elite and the working class in a time of great political and social turbulence. Whishaw's detailed descriptions and vivid characters immerse the reader in the harsh realities of a society on the brink of change, while his lyrical prose captures the beauty and complexity of the city. The novel's exploration of power dynamics, social hierarchy, and individual struggle reflect the tumultuous historical backdrop against which the story unfolds. As a seasoned traveler and scholar of Russian history, Frederick Whishaw brings a unique perspective and deep understanding of the cultural nuances depicted in 'MOSCOW'. His background in literature and history allows him to seamlessly weave together a compelling narrative that offers insight into the human experience in a specific time and place. I highly recommend 'MOSCOW' to readers interested in historical fiction, Russian literature, or social commentary. Whishaw's masterful storytelling and rich character development make this novel a captivating and thought-provoking read that will linger in the reader's mind long after the final page.

    Mindfulness and the idea that consciousness creates reality can seem pretty out there. 
    Blogger/Podcaster MJ Blehart works to use plain language, life experience, and his own trial-and-error actions to help define and create a Kickass Life. You Are Amazing is not just a statement of fact, but a recognition of your ability to create an incredible life for yourself. 
    How to Create a Kickass Life explores how to work with overcoming fears, uncertainties, recognizing truths about the human condition, and using our thoughts, feelings and intentional actions to be amazing and build incredible lives. MJ is just like you, a fairly regular person who has experienced both mundane and unbelievable things. 
    Working with mindfulness and awareness, MJ brings you an approachable angle towards living an amazing, full life, and recognizing how truly amazing you can be. There's some hooky-spooky BS here, because it's not all BS and totally out-there weirdness. But also, a self-aware journey into living the best possible life we can. Choosing and deciding to recognize how amazing you are is a keystone in this lifetime process. 
    Wouldn't it be cool to stop worrying about things and lead a satisfying life?

    Inquisition - The Infamous...

    Perhaps you have heard of the horrible stories of the Spanish, Portuguese, or French inquisition, the Catholic body of persecutors who would arrest the supposed “heathens” and accuse them of witchcraft, heresies, blasphemy, adultery, and a whole list of other sins or crimes. Torture, interrogations, executions, burnings, and other inhumane methods were used to then force, coerce, or kill the victims of this Catholic organization within the church at the time. 
    We are talking mostly about medieval times, when the power of the Catholic church extended throughout Europe. The Inquisition, typically called the "Holy Inquisition" in middle ages clerical terms, was a series of organizations within the Catholic Church whose objective was to fight heresy. Research studies of the archives have exposed that the large bulk of sentences were penances, but that cases of repeat unrepentant apostates were given nonreligious courts, where they were normally executed or sentenced to life. The Inquisition was established in 12th-century France to fight spiritual variance (such as apostasy or heresy), particularly amongst the Cathars and Waldensians. The Middle ages Inquisition describes the inquisitorial courts that existed from this time till the mid-15th century. 
    Discover the pain, the frustration, the hypocrisy, and the drama behind the inquisition. Learn more about their motives, their methods, their superiors, and their murdering.

    This book contains 2 topics, which are subdivided into a first and second section. The topics are these: 
    Topic 1: The history of African-Americans has been complicated and controversial. While some will fight against racism, others deny the severity of it throughout the ages. Whether or not the issue is as serious as it used to be, is a separate topic for debate. 
    In this guide, you will not read much about opinions but about facts. Society has come a long way since the inauguration of slavery and suppression of the minority in the United States. As leaders stood up and laws have been adjusted one by one, more freedoms have been secured to what nowadays constitutes about 10-20% of the population. Whether it’s enough, is another question that divides political enthusiasts. 
    You will learn more about the first slavery, the rise of the cotton market in the southern states, the abolitionism of slavery, the separation, and individuals like Martin Luther King and Malcolm X who have made a significant impact on the common perspective on these issues. Many things have changed over the past two centuries. Let’s find out what. 
    Topic 2: The Haitian Revolution has played a big role in the history of abolishing slavery. Its significant influence on the Civil War in the United States in the 1860s has probably been underestimated by many. 
    The English and French already had conflicts elsewhere, and the Napoleon wars greatly contributed to these disagreements. Aside from that, the nation of Haiti was still in its early stages, with plantations being populated by African slaves the settlers had captured and brought into servitude. Abuse and exploitation were common faces in many people’s lives, but the Haitian Revolution brought many changes to that.
