    Peace strategy

    Lena Elisabet, Unrepeatable Beauty

    In a world where the female body has become the quiet battlefield of ideological warfare, Peace Strategy offers a radical lens—one that refuses to play by inherited rules. This book is not a manifesto of rage, nor a cry for permission. It is a sovereign declaration from the gaze of a woman who has seen the game, decoded its symbols, and chosen to exit. 
    Across borders and belief systems, women are commodified in the name of freedom, contained in the name of honor, and silenced in the name of protection. Western capitalism sells empowerment as a product. Eastern fundamentalism cloaks control in reverence. Both claim to serve women. Neither offers her full autonomy. 
    Peace Strategy is a book for those who are ready to confront the contradiction. For world leaders who legislate bodies without understanding their sacredness. For cultural influencers who shape narratives without reckoning with their consequences. For women who know too much and refuse to stay silent. 
    Through visual metaphor, political insight, and emotional clarity, Lena Elisabet builds a new framework—one that reclaims sovereignty without severing collaboration, that honors dignity without denying complexity. This is not a war manual. It is a strategy for peace—where power is redefined, beauty is reclaimed, and the female gaze becomes the compass for a new world.

    … "Wenn ich also das Ergebnis meiner Untersuchung in knappster Form zusammenfassen müsste, so ergäbe sich etwa Folgendes: Energie ist eine Urkraft unbekannter Herkunft mit einem ungeheuren Differenzierungspotenzial. 'Tote' wie lebende Materie ist zunehmend raffiniert organisierte Energie. Das organisierende Prinzip ist der Weltgeist, ein grenzenloses abstraktes Potenzial von Kombinationsmöglichkeiten, welche im Lauf der Evolution vom Big Bang bis heute immer differenzierter realisiert und materialisiert worden sind. Aspekte des Weltgeists werden von lebendigen Organismen sukzessive entdeckt und genutzt. Sowohl der Weltgeist wie auch die Energie können wahlweise als göttlichen oder natürlichen Ursprungs aufgefasst werden."
    
    … "So if I had to summarize the result of my investigation in the briefest form, it would be something like the following: energy is a primal force of unknown origin with a tremendous potential for differentiation. 'Dead' and living matter is increasingly sophisticatedly organized energy. The organizing principle is the world spirit, a limitless abstract potential of possible combinations, which has been realized and materialized in an increasingly differentiated way in the course of evolution from the Big Bang to the present day. Aspects of the world spirit are successively discovered and utilized by living organisms. Both the world spirit and the energy can be understood to be either of divine or natural origin."

    The wind never truly dies in the Urals. 
     
    It prowls the valleys and ridgelines like a restless spirit, rattling bare birches, hissing across the frozen stone. At night it screams—long, feral cries that curl around the peaks like warning songs. The Mansi hunters had long ago given one of those mountains a name: Kholat Syakhl, the Mountain of the Dead. 
     
    In the dim light of February 1959, the mountain waited. Snow drifted across its slopes, erasing tracks, swallowing sound, hiding the small traces of what was to come. Soon, nine figures would climb its shoulder, laughing, weary, defiant against the cold. They would pitch their tent there, a fragile canvas wall against an indifferent wilderness. 
     
    And within hours, the mountain would keep them forever.

    With our earliest utterances, we announce ourselves—and are recognized—as persons ready for social life. With our final ones, we mark where others must release us to death's embrace. In Bye Bye I Love You, linguist and author Michael Erard explores these phenomena, commonly called "first words" and "last words," uncovering their cultural, historical, and biological entanglements and honoring their deep private significance. Erard draws from personal, historical, and anthropological sources to provide a sense of the breadth of beliefs and practices about these phenomena across eras, religions, and cultures around the world. 
     
     
     
    What do babies' first words have in common? How do people really communicate at the end of life? In the first half of the book, Erard tells the story of first words in human development and evolution, and how the attention to children's early language—a modern phenomenon—arose. In the second half, he provides a groundbreaking overview of language at the end of life and the cultural conventions that surround it. Throughout he reveals the many parallels and asymmetries between first and last words and asks whether we might be able to use a linguistic understanding of end of life to discover what we truly want.
