Sinossi

In 'The Seven Great Monarchies Of The Ancient Eastern World: Media,' George Rawlinson offers a meticulous exploration of the ancient kingdom of Media, one of the pivotal powers in the early history of the Eastern world. Through a blend of detailed historical accounts and engaging narrative, Rawlinson examines the political, cultural, and social dimensions of Media, contextualizing its significance within the broader tapestry of ancient empires. His scholarly approach, infused with rich descriptions and critical analyses, reflects the Victorian fascination with uncovering the vestiges of past civilizations while integrating classical sources with modern archaeological findings. George Rawlinson, a noted historian and Assyriologist, was deeply involved in the study of ancient civilizations, which profoundly influenced his writing. His academic background, including his work on cuneiform inscriptions and contributions to the deciphering of ancient texts, equipped him with the tools to delve into the complexities of the Medes and their interactions with neighboring empires. Rawlinson's scholarship not only aimed to illuminate the past but also to instill a sense of appreciation for the interconnectedness of ancient cultures. With its scholarly rigor and narrative depth, 'The Seven Great Monarchies' is an essential read for historians, students, and enthusiasts of ancient history. Rawlinson'Äôs incisive insights will not only provoke thought but also enrich one's understanding of the pivotal role Media played in shaping historical trajectories. This book is a must-have for anyone looking to grasp the intricacies of one of history'Äôs great monarchies.

Giuliano da Empoli

How do you defend democracy when the rules have changed?
Presidents turning into monarchs. Tech tycoons and autocrats intent on global regime change. Armies of cyber trolls.
The old order is at an end. The Hour of the Predator has come.
Former political advisor Giuliano da Empoli takes us on an insider's journey through this new geopolitical reality, from the Glass Palace of the UN to the Riyadh Ritz-Carlton, from top secret meetings to violent power struggles. We encounter dictators and tyrants, strongmen and AI billionaires - geopolitical predators, and the flailing leaders who desperately try to appease them.
 
Just as in the age of the Borgias or the conquistadors, cynical scheming and brute force increasingly determine the course of international affairs. This is an urgent guide to our new world, and our uncertain future.

The Religion of Whiteness - How...

Glenn E. Bracey II, Michael O....

Recent years have seen a growing recognition of the role that White Christian Nationalism plays in American society. As White Christian Nationalism has become a major force, and as racial and religious attitudes become increasingly aligned among whites—for example, the more likely you are to say that the decline of white people as a share of the population is "bad for society," the more likely you are to believe the government should support religious values—it has become reasonable to wonder which of the adjectives in the phrase "White Christian Nationalism" takes precedence. 
 
 
 
In this book, Michael O. Emerson and Glenn E. Bracey II respond definitively: the answer is "white." The majority of white Christians in America, they argue, are believers in a "Religion of Whiteness" that shapes their faith, their politics, and more. The Religion of Whiteness, they argue, raises the perpetuation of racial inequality to a level of spiritual commitment that rivals followers' commitment to Christianity itself. 
 
 
 
Using national survey data, in-depth interviews, and focus group results gathered over several years, Emerson and Bracey show how the Religion of Whiteness shapes the practice of Christianity for millions of Americans—and what can be done to confront it.
