Sinopsis

"Art Revolts" examines the transformative power of artistic rebellion throughout history, focusing on painters who defied societal norms and revolutionized art. The book highlights how socio-political contexts fueled these revolts, leading to innovative techniques and philosophies that continue to impact art today.

 
Did you know that Impressionists like Monet and Degas challenged rigid academic painting by capturing fleeting moments of light, reflecting broader societal shifts? Or that early 20th-century movements like Cubism, with artists such as Picasso, rejected representational accuracy, mirroring the anxieties of a rapidly changing world?

 
The book argues that artistic progress stems from individuals rejecting prevailing aesthetic and ideological norms. It explores how these artists, through bold subject matter and techniques, challenged artistic and social institutions.

 
"Art Revolts" progresses by first laying the groundwork with general conditions that foster artistic revolt, then delving into specific eras and movements, examining key figures and their lasting legacies. The book draws from artists' manifestos, historical analyses, and biographical accounts to provide a scholarly yet accessible exploration of art history.

    This must-listen book tells the chilling story of an American-born Soviet spy in the atom bomb project in World War II, perfect for fans of The Americans. 
     
     
     
    George Koval was born in Iowa. In 1932, his parents, Russian Jews who had emigrated because of anti-Semitism, decided to return home to live out their socialist ideals. George, who was as committed to socialism as they were, went with them. There, he was recruited by the Soviet Army as a spy and returned to the US in 1940. A gifted science student, he enrolled at Columbia University, where he knew scientists soon to join the Manhattan Project, America's atom bomb program. After being drafted into the US Army, George used his scientific background and connections to secure an assignment at a site where plutonium and uranium were produced to fuel the atom bomb. There, and later in a second top-secret location, he had full access to all facilities, and he passed highly sensitive information to Moscow. 
     
     
     
    The ultimate sleeper agent, Koval was an all-American boy who had played baseball, loved Walt Whitman's poetry, and mingled freely with fellow Americans. After the war he got away without a scratch. It is indisputable that his information landed in the right hands in Moscow. In 1949, Soviet scientists produced a bomb identical to America's years earlier than US experts expected.

    On May 28, 1914, the RMS Empress of Ireland began her 192nd trip across the Atlantic from Quebec City, Canada, en route to Liverpool, England, carrying 1,056 passengers and a crew of 423. In the early hours of May 29, fog descended on the St. Lawrence River, and the ocean liner was rammed by the Storstad, a Norwegian coal ship. In the fourteen minutes it took for the Empress of Ireland to sink, there was time to launch only four of the forty lifeboats, and rather than women and children first, it was everyone for themselves. Over a thousand people died that night, claiming the lives of more passengers than either the Titanic or the Lusitania, and the tragedy stands as the worst maritime disaster during peacetime in Canadian history. 
     
     
     
    Investigative journalist and author Eve Lazarus draws on a trove of historical documents to tell the story of the wreck and its aftermath. Lazarus recounts the story from both a Canadian and a Norwegian perspective and investigates why many accounts regurgitated in newspapers and books are wrong. The result is an utterly stirring narrative that uncovers tales of heroism and sacrifice, human endurance, and modern-day shipwreck hunters. 
     
     
     
    Beneath Dark Waters is an epic chronicle that restores the Empress of Ireland as well as its survivors and victims to their rightful place in maritime history.

    This is the tale of how the illuminati invaded and took control of the United States of America. This is the real history of America as you've never seen before. 
     
    Using new evidence we will reveal how this massive secret origanization infiltrated the religious groups, political parties, Universities and corporations. How they placed their own people in positions of power and authority. How they manipulated the minds of the masses and hid it all from view. 
     
    This group embraces what is known as the esoteric, the so-called spiritual truth hidden from the rest of us. Over a vast period of time, this secretive organization turned slowly to the dark side of these esoteric truths and utilized them for power and control. 
     
    They take their orders from the International Secret Council of Nine. They are collectively called the Confederation of Initiates. They are under the strict control of their masters and to oppose them means punishment worse than death. It has been this way for thousands of years and they are working slowly but surely towards their ultimate goal of a one world government with the Nine in control. 
     
    We reveal their plans and schemes. We show how the so-called land of the free is not free at all. How it is under the yoke of a very large, very powerful and very secret organization. This is the illuminati of America.
