Beschreibung

In the middle of the 19th century, Europe was torn between wars and revolutions. Turkey conflicted with Russia, which involved other European lands which also faced civil unrest and were pressed by their people seeking change. At this time, traveling across Europe, heading to serve in the army, or escaping from tensions in your land was a usual thing. This is a topic of this novel - the author meets the travelers from different places, occasionally drawn together by fate, to tell the stories of their lives and continue their way. Here, you can find a Hungarian nobleman with his son, an English soldier, fighting for Croatia, or an old Austrian general - all presenting a bright and unbelievably exciting mirror of the epoch.

    Political polarization is at an all-time high, and the consequences for our personal relationships are significant.

    Chapters show listeners how to develop and use the scientifically-proven skills that are the foundation of constructive conversation, including strategies for effective listening, managing emotions, and understanding someone else's perspective, as well as finding common ground, avoiding self-righteousness, and telling your own story. Throughout, conversation prompts, practical exercises, case examples, and self-quizzes help listeners visualize and practice starting, sustaining, and ending challenging conversations.

    What's sexy about saving the planet? Funny you should ask. Because that is precisely—or, perhaps, broadly—what Annie Sprinkle and Beth Stephens have spent many years bringing to light in their live art, exhibitions, and films. In 2008, Sprinkle and Stephens married the Earth, which set them on the path to explore the realms of ecosexuality as they became lovers with the Earth and made their mutual pleasure an embodied expression of passion for the environment. Ever since, they have been not just pushing but obliterating the boundaries circumscribing biology and ecology, creating ecosexual art in their performance of an environmentalism that is feminist, queer, sensual, sexual, posthuman, materialist, exuberant, and steeped in humor. 
     
     
     
    Assuming the Ecosexual Position tells of childhood moments that pointed to a future of ecosexuality—for Annie, in her family swimming pool in Los Angeles; for Beth, savoring forbidden tomatoes from the vine on her grandparents' Appalachian farm. The book describes how the two came together as lovers and collaborators, how they took a stand against homophobia and xenophobia, and how this union led to the miraculous conception of the Love Art Laboratory, which involved influential performance artists Linda M. Montano, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, and feminist pornographer Madison Young.
