  Scripting Empire - Broadcasting...

  Scripting Empire recovers the literary and cultural history of West Indian and West African writing at the BBC in order to rethink the critical mid-century decades of shrinking British sovereignty, late modernism, and mass migration to the metropole. Between the 1930s and the 1960s, a remarkable group of black Atlantic artists and intellectuals became producers, editors, and freelancers at the corporation. Operating at the interface of a range of literary and broadcast genres, this loose network of African Caribbean writers and thinkers prompt a reassessment of the aesthetic, formal, and political fallout of decolonization between the outbreak of World War II and the first airings of post-colonial independence. 
   
   
   
  Scripting Empire works comparatively across dozens of different programs spanning the General Overseas Service, Home Service, Light Program, and Third Program. Drawing upon a transnational archive of materials, including scripts, correspondence, periodicals, visual records, and sound recordings, it seeks to reposition the cultural contribution of West Indians and West Africans within a more pervasive and porous account of radio transmission, the legacy of which extends well beyond broadcasting.

  What if praying for the wrong thing led you further from the good? 
  In Second Alcibiades, Plato invites readers to a bold examination of prayer, intention, and the blindness of ambition. Socrates challenges the fiery young Alcibiades to reflect on whether he even understands what he should pray for before entering the political arena. 
  What you'll discover inside: 
  •	The Fragility of Political Ambition – A revealing dialogue between Socrates and Alcibiades on the ignorance behind power-seeking. 
  •	A Sharp Critique of Prayer – Philosophical guidance on why piety demands more than sincerity. 
  •	A Modern, Accessible Translation – Clear, faithful, and resonant for today’s listener. 
  •	Essential Themes of Plato’s Philosophy – Explore the timeless tension between desire, knowledge, and divine will. 
  More than a conversation—Second Alcibiades is a philosophical awakening.

  The Bible is a book made of many books. It is philosophy and faith, law and life. From poetry to psalms, it is a work of love to a deity that finds its origins in times long before the Hebrews had ever been heard of. But one element of the Bible has been used as evidence that God exists. That he has a plan for the world. That he gave us knowledge of that plan via his prophets. This is Bible Prophecy. 
   
  There are numerous passages in the Bible that tell us about the communications between God and humanity. It is known as a revelation from the divine. A future revealed. 
   
  There is not specific book in the Bible that has all the prophecies; they are widely spread. Many of them have conditions. Most are from the words of the prophets but some are given as direct communication from God himself. 
   
  Over the past two thousand years these prophecies have vexed mankind for one main reason - interpretation. And therein lies a problem we need to get to the bottom of. Who to believe? 
   
  Welcome to a fantastic world of predicted births and ends of the world. Welcome to Bible Prophecies.
