Sinopse

In "Homer and Classical Philology," Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche delves into the profound interplay of art, philosophy, and literature through the lens of ancient Greek texts, primarily the works attributed to Homer. Nietzsche employs a critical yet passionate literary style that blends rigorous analysis with a poetic sensibility, engaging with the philosophies of language and aesthetics that underlie the epic narratives. He carefully situates Homeric poetry within its cultural and historical context, illuminating the profound influence it had on Western thought and literature while challenging contemporary interpretations that disregard its richness and depth. Nietzsche, a noted philologist and philosopher, was profoundly influenced by his studies of ancient texts, leading him to reevaluate the foundations of classical scholarship. His engagement with the works of Homer was not merely academic; it stemmed from a desire to rediscover the essence of human experience and creativity that he believed was being overshadowed by modernity's rationalism. This book reflects Nietzsche's deep conviction that understanding the classics is essential to grasping the trajectory of human culture and philosophy. "Homer and Classical Philology" is a compelling read for scholars, students, and lovers of literature alike, offering rich insights and a refreshingly innovative perspective on ancient texts. Nietzsche'Äôs intricate analyses will resonate with those seeking a deeper appreciation of Homer and the philosophies that have shaped literary traditions. This work not only enhances our understanding of classical literature but also provokes vital questions regarding the relevance of these texts in contemporary discourse.

    Through an internationalist, anti-imperialist lens, this book explores the links between the struggle for freedom in the United States and that in Palestine, and beyond. It examines both the historical and contemporary trajectory of the Palestine solidarity movement in order to glean lessons for today's organizers, and compellingly lays out the argument that, in order to achieve justice in Palestine, the movement has to take up the question of socialism regionally and internationally.

    In the first edition of A Country Called Prison, Mary Looman and John Carl presented persuasive data calling for downsizing of America's prisons. Their novel approach continues in their second edition, shifting the beliefs many people have about prisons and their role in the American society. Since the original edition was published, the landscape of incarceration has been changing. 
     
     
     
    In their second edition, Carl and Looman discuss the significant world events, such as the COVID epidemic, that impacted the American society in the past decade, which lead to an overall twenty percent reduction in prison populations across the board. The second edition includes a new chapter covering the history of prisons that clearly establishes the fact that prisons have always been about making money and less about rehabilitating offenders. They also introduce the new era of decarceration and desistance, encouraging courts to defer sentences and keep minor offenders at home with their families and in their communities while they work, attend education classes, and receive mental health treatment. Once again Carl and Looman end their book with a rational and daring proposal—Marshall Plan 2024—that envisions a way to bring the criminal justice system into the twenty-first century focusing on social equity and humane compassion for those who want to emigrate out.

    Observers tell us that we will have many jobs and possibly several careers during our lifetimes.  But there is very little practical help available for professionals on how to move between jobs and careers. 
    This audiobook takes the listener through a comprehensive process that will help them to prepare for job search, identify job opportunities, and then maximize their chance of success. 
    The author has worked with over 1,000 senior executives as a career coach.  So, his advice is practical and it is supported by real stories of successes and setbacks. 
    Most people are not aware of the life skills required to manage successful transitions between jobs.  They tend work on their cv and then to make up their own approach to moving forward.   
    They often aim too low.  They do not understand how to prepare properly.  It is not uncommon for them to fail to reach their potential.   When their approach does not work out they blame themselves.    
    It does not need to be this way.  This audiobook increases the possibility of success in your transition process and then in your subsequent career. 
    The original book was written for mid-career professionals.   But the process it describes is relevant for individuals at any stage on their career, from graduation to retirement. 
    This audiobook has four parts: 
    1.    Understanding the basics 
    2.    Building on your strengths 
    3.    Growing the power of your network 
    4.    Finding the right job.
