The New Spirit - Unveiling the Cultural Shifts: A Nuanced Perspective on Sexuality and Morality in the Late 19th Century

Havelock Ellis

Casa editrice: Good Press

Sinossi

In 'The New Spirit,' Havelock Ellis delves into the evolving perceptions of sexuality, morality, and the human condition during the turn of the 20th century. The book is characterized by its introspective and candid tone, blending psychological insights with sociocultural critique. Ellis masterfully employs a blend of anecdotal evidence and historical context to illustrate the shifts occurring in societal attitudes towards sex, identity, and gender, presenting a holistic view of a rapidly changing world. This work is situated within the burgeoning modernist literary movement, which sought to challenge and redefine traditional norms and values. Havelock Ellis, a pioneer in the study of human sexuality and a key figure in the early sexual liberation movements, drew on his experiences and the intellectual currents of his time to craft this provocative work. His extensive research and progressive ideas were often considered avant-garde, positioning him as a controversial yet crucial voice in the discussions surrounding sexual ethics and personal freedom during an era marked by repression and strict moral codes. 'The New Spirit' is essential reading for anyone interested in the intersections of sexuality, psychology, and culture. Ellis's profound observations invite readers to reconsider their own beliefs in a time of profound change, making it a relevant and thought-provoking exploration into the complexities of human experience.

One Shot - One Kill - American...

Craig Roberts, Charles W. Sasser

They are the lone wolves of the battlefield. Tracking the enemy, lying in wait for the target to appear—then they shoot to kill. Armed with an unerring eye, infinite patience and a mastery of camouflage, combat snipers stalk the enemy with only one goal . . . In World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and Beirut, American snipers honed the art of delivering a single deadly shot from nowhere—and devastating enemy morale. They met the enemy on his own turf, picking off officers, unwary soldiers, and even other snipers from extraordinary distances of up to 1 ½ miles. Now, these uncommon men tell their stories: of the emotions felt when a man's face came into their crosshairs and they pulled the trigger, of the nerve-wracking hours and days of waiting, motionless, for the enemy, of the primal savagery of a sniper duel.Often trained haphazardly in wartime, and forgotten in times of peace, combat snipers were officially recognized after the Vietnam War, when the Marine Corps became the first military branch to start a full-time sniper school. One Shot-One Kill is their powerful record of desperate trials and proud victories.

A Lifetime Doing Nothing - Tales...

Ian McCrorie

This book is a compilation of teachings told in short stories about the author's attempts to undo the done. He offers this little book as a more ardent, and hopefully lucid, attempt to explain the paramount importance of doing nothing as a way to undo oneself. 
 
----------------------------- 
 
"In my experience, all our problems do indeed stem from this hyperactive and delusional thinking we have acquired over time. 
 
There is a way to eradicate the light-speed, blind reactions and the habitual confusion. The way is very simple. It boils down to just two words: do nothing. That s it. Do nothing. Sit quietly in a room alone and do nothing. Watch the monkey mind and do not try to fix it or eliminate it or drown it out or engage it. 
 
This is doing non-doing. Observe the mind, on autopilot as usual, screaming editorial comments from the sidelines like some frenzied play-by-play announcer and do nothing about it. Don't turn the monologue into a dialogue. Do nothing. 'Nothing to see here, folks. Let s keep it moving.'" 
 
—Ian McCrorie

Hidden Agendas - Secret Motives...

Cito Harder

Hidden agendas exist in nearly every aspect of life, shaping decisions, influencing behavior, and often determining the outcomes of interactions without those involved fully realizing it. A hidden agenda refers to a concealed motive or underlying intention that differs from what is outwardly expressed. Unlike open and transparent objectives, hidden agendas operate beneath the surface, often serving personal, financial, or strategic interests that are not explicitly stated.
At their core, hidden agendas stem from the fundamental human need for control, advantage, or self-preservation. People may withhold their true intentions out of fear of rejection, loss of power, or diminished influence. In many cases, hidden agendas are not inherently malicious; they can be driven by self-interest, strategic planning, or the need to protect sensitive information. However, when used manipulatively, they can undermine trust, deceive others, and lead to unethical or harmful consequences.
One of the key characteristics of a hidden agenda is deception or misdirection. A person or group may present one set of intentions while secretly pursuing another. This is common in politics, business, and even personal relationships, where individuals may disguise their true motivations to gain support, manipulate outcomes, or secure an advantage. For example, a corporate leader advocating for a policy change may claim it is for the benefit of employees, while in reality, it serves to increase profits or consolidate power.
