Gustav Freytag, a pivotal figure in 19th-century German literature, drew from his own diverse experiences, including his studies in philology and involvement in the socio-political landscape of Germany, which undoubtedly influenced his work. His keen observation of societal changes and historical events led him to delve into themes of national character, morality, and the human condition, positioning him as a significant commentator of his time. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of German history and culture. Freytag's rich and engaging narrative style not only enlightens readers about a critical period in German history but also invites reflections on the enduring human elements that resonate through time.

    From the author of Memory and the Mediterranean, a comprehensive history of the Italian city states from 1450 to 1650. 
     
     
     
    In the fifteenth century, even before the city states of the Apennine Peninsula began to coalesce into what would become, several centuries later, a nation, "Italy" exerted enormous influence over all of Europe and throughout the Mediterranean. Its cultural, economic, and political dominance is utterly astonishing and unique in world history. Viewing the Italy (the many Italies?) of that time through the lens of today allows us to gather a fragmented, multi-faceted, and seemingly contradictory history into a single unifying narrative that speaks to our current reality as much as it does to a specific historical period. This is what the acclaimed French historian, Fernand Braudel, achieves here. He brings to life the two extraordinary centuries that span the Renaissance, Mannerism, and the Baroque and analyzes the complex interaction between art, science, politics, and commerce during Italy's extraordinary cultural flowering.

    In 1992 Sripad Jagannatha Das was asked if he would do an exclusive interview with the Maharishi in Switzerland. The author readily agreed as the reclusive spiritual master almost never met the press and was embarking on an ambitious mass meditation program to purify vast areas of the United States. After a great deal of negotiation, the two finally got together on Christmas Eve and had a prolonged, stirring conversation that is documented here. In addition, the Maharishi was joined by the late world-class magician Doug Henning. Put together with a chronological, historical narration by Das, here is your chance to go one on one with one of the greatest spiritual minds of our time. 
     
    Here too is the story of The Beatles circa 1968, as they trekked to a remote, mysterious, and beautiful part of India known as Rishikesh or the valley of the saints. For thousands of years, this riverside valley has been a magnet for advanced yogis, mystics, and seekers of truth. In 1968, it was the absolute zenith of all of this and the pop world as well. It was here the Beatles wrote dozens of now-iconic songs while meditating at the feet of the lauded spiritual master. Along with many of the world's most celebrated people, the group once again led the way as innovators in not only music but innate spirituality as well.   
    Fifty years later, we remember the group's bold trek and artistic accomplishment in this inspirational audio biography from Beatles author and historian Geoffrey Giuliano. The Maharishi, the Beatles, and friends tell their own stories in this one-of-a-kind celebration of a magical time gone by. 
     
    Finally, here are several enlightening lectures by Maharishi all of which are surcharged with the sublime transcendental knowledge with are the masters perpetual stock in trade.

    Machiavellianism - Manipulative...

    Machiavellianism is a philosophy that prioritizes power, strategy, and manipulation over conventional morality. Rooted in the writings of Niccolò Machiavelli, particularly The Prince, this mindset champions pragmatism and cunning as necessary tools for success. Machiavellianism does not concern itself with what is right or wrong in a moral sense; instead, it focuses on what is effective. Those who embrace this approach believe that power is not given but taken, and maintaining it requires calculated decisions rather than ethical considerations. 
    At its core, Machiavellianism operates on the assumption that people are driven by self-interest and can be easily influenced, deceived, or controlled. While traditional morality emphasizes honesty, fairness, and compassion, a Machiavellian sees these values as potential weaknesses when navigating competitive environments. Success, according to this philosophy, is reserved for those who can manipulate perceptions, control narratives, and strategically outmaneuver others. This way of thinking is often observed in politics, business, and personal relationships, where the ability to influence others determines one's level of power. 
    One of the key aspects of Machiavellianism is the belief that the ends justify the means. A leader, politician, or corporate executive following this mindset may employ deceit, flattery, or even betrayal to secure and maintain power. Machiavelli himself argued that rulers must sometimes act immorally for the greater stability of their state. In the modern world, this principle manifests in various ways, from corporate takeovers to political campaigns that use misinformation to sway public opinion.
