Beschreibung

Peter the Great ruled the Tsardom of Russia and later the Russian Empire from 7 May 1682 until his death, jointly ruling before 1696 with his half-brother. In numerous successful wars he expanded the Tsardom into a huge empire that became a major European power. He led a cultural revolution that replaced some of the traditionalist and medieval social and political system with a modern, scientific, Europe-oriented, and rationalist system.

The Imperial title of Peter the Great was the following:

“ By the grace of God, the most excellent and great sovereign prince Pyotr Alekseevich the ruler all the Russias: of Moscow, of Kiev, of Vladimir, of Novgorod, Tsar of Kazan, Tsar of Astrakhan and Tsar of Siberia, sovereign of Pskov, great prince of Smolensk, Tversk, Yugorsk, Permsky, Vyatsky, Bulgarsky and others, sovereign and great prince of Novgorod Nizovsky lands, Chernigovsky, of Ryazan, of Rostov, Yaroslavl, Belozersky, Udorsky, Kondiisky and the sovereign of all the northern lands, and the sovereign of the Iverian lands, of the Kartlian and Georgian Kings, of the Kabardin lands, of the Circassian and Mountain princes and many other states and lands western and eastern here and there and the successor and sovereign and ruler.

    Nefertiti, one of ancient Egypt’s most captivating and influential queens, remains a figure shrouded in mystery and intrigue. Her name, meaning “the beautiful one has come,” hints at her exotic origins, though little is known for certain about her early life. Some historians believe she was a member of the Egyptian nobility, possibly the daughter of Ay, a prominent official. Others suggest foreign origins, potentially linking her to Mitanni royalty. Regardless of her birthplace, Nefertiti’s remarkable journey from obscurity to queenhood is a testament to her enduring legacy. 
    Nefertiti’s life took a dramatic turn when she married Amenhotep IV, later known as Akhenaten. Their union marked the beginning of one of ancient Egypt’s most transformative periods. As Akhenaten’s Great Royal Wife, Nefertiti played a central role in the royal family, often depicted alongside her husband in scenes of worship and domestic life. Their partnership appeared to be one of both love and power, as Nefertiti is shown participating actively in religious ceremonies and royal duties, signifying her status as more than just a consort. 
    Upon ascending to the throne, Akhenaten and Nefertiti initiated radical religious changes, abandoning traditional polytheism in favor of the monotheistic worship of Aten, the sun disk. This religious revolution, known as the Amarna Period, saw the couple establish a new capital, Akhetaten, modern-day Amarna. Nefertiti’s involvement in this spiritual shift was profound, as she was frequently depicted alongside Akhenaten, worshiping Aten with equal devotion. She became a symbol of the new religious order, embodying divine femininity and royal authority.

    Hanna Flint speaks from the heart in this personal and incisive reflection on how cinema has been the key to understanding herself and the world we live in. A staunch feminist of mixed-race heritage, Hanna has succeeded in an industry not designed for people like her. Interweaving anecdotes from familial and personal experiences—episodes of messy sex, introspection, and that time actor Vincent D'Onofrio tweeted that Hanna Flint sounded like a secret agent—she offers a critical eye on the screen's representation of women and ethnic minorities and their impact on her life, body image, and ambitions, with the humor and eloquence that has made her a leading film critic of her generation. Divided into the sections Origin Story, Coming of Age, Adult Material, Workplace Drama, and Strong Female Character, the book ponders how the creative industries could better reflect our multicultural society. Warm, funny, engaging, and full of film-infused lessons, Strong Female Character will appeal to listeners of all backgrounds and seeks to help us better see ourselves in our own eyes rather than letting others decide who and what we can be.

    FROM SCARCITY TO ABUNDANCE 
    WHAT IF your limiting believes disappeared overnight? 
    WHAT IF there was no "victim syndrome' to hide behind? 
    WHAT IF you realize you are enough and deserving? 
    WHAT IF living life to the full potential was your only option? 
    WHAT IF you you assume one hundred percent ownership of your resources and your life? 
    With the tools provided in this book, you will feel empowered to take action and begin to write your own success story. 
    This book is written for those aspiring entrepreneurs chained to their "comfort zone" and tormented with self-imposed limiting believes. 
    This book is written through the eyes of a young girl as she witnesses her mother overcome poverty, physical abuse, scarcity of essential resources, and societal suppression. Based on true stories which took place over two decades, starting in the 1980s between Mexico City and the province of Mexico. The young girl was the fourth generation and destined to continue the cycle of scarcity. Through the mentorship, continued encouragement, and support received through her mother and grandmother, she escaped to a mindset of abundance. 
    The survivalist skills she developed and the life principles passed on from generation to generation are the only tools she inherits to break the chains that keep most people in similar situations tied to their "comfort zone." Now, as an adult, the young girl's lenses of innocence are removed. She abstracts the principles that helped her go from scarcity to abundance and shares them here to empower the readers to do the same. She calls them the Mastermind principles: the grouped principles of resilience, tenacity, accountability, visualization, and self-imposed responsibility. The author invites you to follow these principles to break away from any chains that keep you from living a life of abundance and holistic wealth.
