Queen Elizabeth

Jacob Abbott

Synopsis

Travelers, in ascending the Thames by the steamboat from Rotterdam, on their return from an excursion to the Rhine, have often their attention strongly attracted by what appears to be a splendid palace on the banks of the river at Greenwich. The edifice is not a palace, however, but a hospital, or, rather, a retreat where the worn out, maimed, and crippled veterans of the English navy spend the remnant of their days in comfort and peace, on pensions allowed them by the government in whose service they have spent their strength or lost their limbs. The magnificent buildings of the hospital stand on level land near the river.

The Public Purpose of Art

Arlene Goldbard

We’re on the cusp of a paradigm shift, a radical change in worldview that will thrust art and culture onto center stage. What does that mean? How will the world be different? What is the rising spirit of the times and how is it being expressed in art? Arlene Goldbard says, “I have this overwhelming image of energy gathering force and taking shape.” She likens this force to a wave and says, “No one masterminds a wave, ordering all the drops of water into line. Many independent forces operate simultaneously – wind, gravity, disturbances of all kinds – and somehow, the wave mounts.” In this dialogue we explore this mounting force and what’s opposing this rolling tide.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

History is a story we’ve been told, passed down from generation to generation. It’s shaped our understanding of the world, our identity, and even the way we see ourselves in relation to others. But what if the history we know is not the complete truth? What if much of it has been hidden, distorted, or even manipulated to serve specific agendas? In this book, we will venture beyond the textbook narratives and uncover the shocking truths about some of the most significant events in history.
The importance of rethinking history cannot be overstated. History is not just a collection of dates and events; it’s the lens through which we understand our past and how we build our future. Yet, history is often written by the victors, by those in power who have the means to shape the narrative. As a result, many historical events have been oversimplified, romanticized, or distorted to fit a particular worldview. This selective storytelling often leaves out inconvenient truths and suppresses voices that challenge the established narrative.
One of the main reasons historical revisionism is necessary is because myths and misconceptions run deep. From the supposed "glory" of past empires to the image of historical figures as flawless heroes, myths become ingrained in society, influencing how we think and what we believe. These myths often serve a purpose — to maintain power structures, justify wars, or sustain national pride. However, as new evidence and perspectives emerge, we begin to realize that the past is far more complex than the simplified version we were taught.
