Sinopsis

Postwar Literary Emergence explores the profound impact of World War II and subsequent social upheaval on global literature. It examines how writers navigated historical trauma and crafted new narrative forms to articulate previously unvoiced experiences. The book reveals how literature became a tool for social critique, political activism, and personal healing in the face of unprecedented change.

 
The collection of essays analyzes the reinvention of realism, the rise of experimental narratives, and the exploration of identity in a fractured world. For example, the book addresses the resurgence of historical fiction as a means of confronting collective memory.

 
By examining literary collections and essays from Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa, the book demonstrates how writers grappled with legacies of war, colonialism, and injustice. The book progresses across chapters by exploring different geographical areas and thematic concerns, offering a scholarly yet accessible tone.

From a corrupt system to vile living conditions, from apathetic corrections officers to a system that does nothing to rehabilitate men, learn one man’s experience just trying to survive the Michigan Department of Corrections…all while keeping his sanity, attempting to piece together a failing marriage and hoping to be reunited with a father he just met before it’s too late.

Sleep and dreams

Louis Ferdinand Alfred Maury

What if dreams were not a mystical enigma, but a living laboratory of the mind? In “Sleep and Dreams,” Alfred Maury, a pioneer of experimental psychology in the 19th century, conducts a fascinating investigation into what happens when consciousness falters: the genesis of dreams, the sequencing of images, the role of memory, hypnagogic illusions, nightmares, sleepwalking, ecstasy, hypnotism, intoxication, delirium… Nothing is left to chance. An indefatigable observer of himself, Maury multiplies experiments and precise accounts (induced awakenings, sensory stimuli during sleep, correspondences between real sensations and dream scenes) to dismantle the mechanics of dreaming and its close links with the body, the senses, and memory. As the pages unfold, the boundaries blur between dream, madness, and genius: the mind associates through assonance, amplifies impressions, creates believable hallucinations, and sometimes reveals forgotten memories. Clear, methodical, and often surprising, this classic brings psychology, physiology, and captivating testimonies into dialogue. For anyone who questions imagination, consciousness, or the mystery of the night, it is a foundational, bold, and strikingly modern work — to be heard as a scientific and intimate adventure where the dream learns to speak.

Modern History - Insights from...

This special deal includes 2 titles, which are:
Gilded Age: The Gilded Age was a period in American history that covered the late 19th century, from the 1870s till around 1900. The Gilded Age was a period of great financial development in the United States, specifically in the North and West. The time saw an increase of countless European immigrants, as American incomes were considerably higher than those in Europe, specifically for experienced workers, while industrialization demanded an ever-increasing common labor force.
Between 1860 and 1890, the quick growth of market led to a 60 percent boost in real salaries, which was dispersed over an ever-increasing manpower. The typical annual wage for a commercial worker (consisting of men, women, and kids) increased by 48 percent from $380 in 1880 to $564 in 1890. On the other hand, the Gilded Age was also a time of severe poverty and inequality, as countless immigrants—many from poor parts—gathered to the United States, bringing with them a high concentration of wealth that ended up being more obvious and controversial.
Dutch East India Trading Company: Did you know that the Dutch were some of the first who came up with stocks? They were also known for their gigantic fleet, their ships, their colonies, and so much more. The 17th century was a golden age, a golden century for the Dutch, who discovered how to go to the new world in Asia, America, and other continents to transport spices, minerals, and other materials.
The Dutch East India Company, officially the United East India Company (Dutch: Vereenigde Oost Indische Compagnie; VOC), was a mega corporation created in the early 17th century by a government-directed merger of many competing Dutch trade services.

The MAGA Doctrine - The Only...

Charlie Kirk

The movement that brought Donald Trump to the White House has better ideas than the old right or the new left. It’s time that the rest of America started listening. 
The Tea Party began as a protest for patriots who feared Big Government. President Trump has become a hero for patriots who are against Big Everything.  
Fed up with Silicon Valley, the media, liberal higher education, the military-industrial complex, Twitter mobs, swamp monsters, Big Pharma, out-of-control prosecutors, and gun-grabbing fascists, ordinary Americans miss the days when America cared about rule of the people, by the people, and for the people. Remember when you didn’t feel bombarded on all sides by coastal billionaires and their government stooges? The MAGA Doctrine urges an overdue restoration of self-rule by a populace long taken for granted by its rulers.  
Turning Point USA founder and social media superstar Charlie Kirk explains once and for all why a New York real estate magnate found an audience among young conservatives all over the country. Trump and his allies are working to protect all the small things that both parties dismissed: local businesses, families, churches, and the rights of the individual. Kirk explains why it took a reality TV superstar to see past the sclerotic and power-hungry institutions, from the United Nations and Google to Harvard and Viacom, working to crush real America. The Trump Doctrine is all about giving you a say in the future of America and a hand in making it happen.  
As the mainstream media keep churning out lies about the “real reasons” behind the new conservative agenda, Charlie Kirk’s The MAGA Doctrine is a powerful reminder of the true narrative of freedom and greatness that swept Donald Trump to the presidency.

The Seven Deadly Sins of White...

Carter Heyward

Hear the call to overcome today's culture of hate and bring healing and hope into our life together. While right-wing conservatives dare to call themselves Christians as they tear down equality and justice, commit horrific acts of violence, and fan the flames of fascism in America, Carter Heyward issues a call to action for Christians to truly hear God's message of peace and love. 
 
 
 
Heyward shows how American Christians have played a major role in building and securing structures of injustice in American life. Rising tides of white supremacy, threats to women's reproductive freedoms and to basic human rights for gender and sexual minorities, the widening divide between rich and poor, and increasing natural disasters and the extinction of Earth's species—all point to a world crying out for God's wisdom. 
 
 
 
Followers of Jesus must first call out these ingrained and sinful attitudes for what they are, acknowledging what the culture of white Christian nationalism is doing to our country and our world, and commit ourselves ever more fully to generating justice-love, whoever and wherever we are.
