Beschreibung

In "The Ascendancy of France, 1598-1715," Henry Offley Wakeman meticulously examines the sociopolitical and cultural transformations in France during a critical period that saw the nation emerge as a dominant European power. Employing a narrative style that weaves together historical analysis with vivid character portraits, Wakeman delves into the reigns of significant monarchs, particularly focusing on the impact of Cardinal Richelieu and Louis XIV. His adept use of primary sources illuminates the complexities of absolutism and the intricate web of alliances, wars, and court intrigues that defined the era, making the text a crucial contribution to the historiography of early modern France. Wakeman, a distinguished historian with an evident passion for French history, drew from an extensive background in European political theory and history. His scholarly pursuits, enriched by his experience in various academic and cultural institutions, enabled him to offer profound insights into the nuances of French governance and its implications for European affairs. The depth of his research is a testament to his commitment to elucidating the factors that shaped the rise of French authority amidst a changing continental landscape. This book is an essential read for those interested in the dynamics of power in early modern Europe and the intricate forces that propelled France to the forefront of global politics. Wakeman's scholarship not only provides a compelling narrative but also challenges readers to consider the wider ramifications of France's ascent, making it a pivotal work for historians, students, and anyone keen on understanding the foundations of modern European history.

Billings was a veteran of the 10th Massachusetts Volunteer Light Artillery Battery in the American Civil War.

Reed, also a veteran, who served as bugler in the 9th Massachusetts Battery, later received the Medal of Honor for saving the life of his battery commander at Gettysburg. Hard Tack and Coffee is not about battles, but rather about how the common Union soldiers of the Civil War lived in camp and on the march.

    We begin with a drive to write something that's never been said before, to protest, to offload, to challenge or catch the zeitgeist. We imagine we write like the poets we admire. Slowly we learn the craft, understanding eventually that a writer is indentured for life.
    Drawing on decades of experience as a poet and tutor, this compelling book is part hands-on guide and part reflection on ways that poetry can make a difference to how we live. It is also a survey of many varied and inspirational writers, especially women poets from the end of the 20th century.
    The final section of this unique book offers starting points and resources that will prove essential for new and experienced poets alike. Jackie Wills is herself one of our most genuine and brilliantly insightful poets; and, as the sections on writing workshops show, she has helped people of all ages find their way into poetry.

    How farmer's markets and organic produce became synonymous with "good food" and why they shouldn't be.
       
    How did farmer's markets, nose-to-tail, locavorism, organic eating, CSAs, whole foods, and Whole Foods become synonymous with “good food”? And are these practices really producing food that is morally, environmentally, or economically sustainable? Rebecca Tucker's compelling, reported argument shows that we must work to undo the moral coding that we use to interpret how we come by what we put on our plates. She investigates not only the danger of the accepted rhetoric, but the innovative work happening on farms and university campuses to create a future where nutritious food is climate-change resilient, hardy enough to grow season after season, and, most importantly, available to all—not just those willing or able to fork over the small fortune required for a perfect heirloom tomato.
       
    Tucker argues that arriving at that future will require a broad cognitive shift away from the idea that farmer's markets, community gardens, and organic food production is the only sustainable way forward; more than that, it will require the commitment of research firms, governments, corporations, and post-secondary institutions to develop and implement agri­science innovations that do more than improve the bottom line. A Matter of Taste asks us to rethink what good food really is.
