Sinopsis

The "Complete Works of Henry James" presents a monumental anthology of the esteemed author's literary output, encompassing not only his novels but also short stories, plays, essays, autobiography, and letters. Characterized by intricate prose and psychological depth, James's works explore themes of consciousness, social dynamics, and cultural juxtaposition, predominantly situated within the nuanced milieu of 19th and early 20th-century Europe and America. This compilation allows readers to traverse the breadth of his evolution as a writer, revealing his unique narrative techniques and his meticulous attention to the subtleties of human experience. Henry James, an American expatriate who spent significant time in Europe, was deeply influenced by the artistic and cultural movements of his time. His works often reflect his own transatlantic identity, grappling with the conflicts between American optimism and European sophistication. James's rich intellectual life, spent among contemporaries such as Edith Wharton and Joseph Conrad, informed his distinctive style and keen psychological insights, establishing him as a pivotal figure in literary modernism. For readers seeking an immersive and comprehensive understanding of literary artistry, the "Complete Works of Henry James" is indispensable. It expertly encapsulates the complexities of human relationships and societal frameworks, making it an essential addition to any literary canon and a profound exploration of a writer whose influence continues to reverberate through modern literature.

    "How is it possible to recover and love the world again when you have lived through the worst? "On the night of September 5, 1990, my two children, Lucie and Sylvain, were murdered by their own father. Faced with such a tragedy, I could have killed myself, but I chose life. Like many mothers, I believed that I could never live without my children. And yet... today, I am no longer ashamed to be alive. Surviving hell is possible.
    "There is not a word in the dictionary that is good enough to define the nothingness in which I and my family found ourselves."
    "To fill this gap, I decided to write my story.  How can you survive the death of your children? I hope that my testimony will help you, dear reader, to understand the pain of the victims and perhaps one day to overcome it."
    In this extraordinary story, of rare humanity, Patricia Oddo finds the strength to live for her children, to fall in love, to be a mother again, to speak without taboo about this tragedy that struck her children, and to mourn this tragedy thirty years later.

    Charles Milles Manson was an American crook who led the Manson Family, a cult based in California, in the late 1960s. He got involved in the Church of Scientology and had a difficult childhood. Going to jail twice didn’t teach him the lesson he was supposed to learn, and eventually, he was incarcerated a third time. 
    Perhaps through the study of this short-read, you can figure out what makes a criminal and murderer, how it can be prevented, and why we do the things we do. Charles Manson’s life is an example of how things clearly went into the wrong direction. Let’s learn from him so that we don’t repeat the same mistakes.

    In the name of humanity, that was the explanation of Dr. Claus Karl Schilling for the execution of malaria experiments on 1,200 inmates of the Dachau concentration camp during the Second World War. The reputable Schilling had come to Dachau with the personal permission of the Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler in 1942 because he could use the prisoners as research subjects without the restriction of obtaining their consent. Schilling was not an exception.  
    Many Nazi doctors seized the unique opportunity to execute human experiments without legal and ethical restrictions during the war. The SS and the Wehrmacht either initiated or supported the research of the Nazi doctors. The central question that puzzled jurists and scientists is how these doctors, who were educated to heal people, could execute human experiments and deliberately harm and even kill people. To some scientists, their acts stand out as ‘exemplars of evil.’ This judgment is based on the fact that prisoners did not give their informed consent, the cruel and sometimes sadistic character of the experiments, and because never before in medical experiments was the death of the research subjects a central element of the research design. Many people think that ‘science went mad’ in the Third Reich and that Nazi doctors who committed these crimes were pseudo-scientists, sadists, and even monsters. However, thinking these perpetrators were madmen or monsters is a false explanation.  
    It is confronting to know that physicians belonging to the most advanced medical community in the world at the time, who had sworn to ‘do no harm, ' could commit these crimes. 
    On this trail, Dr. Josef Mengele’s pseudo-scientific research at the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II led to immeasurable suffering among the camp’s children.
