Sinopse

In "Joseph Hergesheimer, an Essay in Interpretation," James Branch Cabell navigates the intricate tapestry of Hergesheimer's literary landscape, exploring the defining themes and stylistic flourishes that characterize his work. Employing a blend of critical analysis and lyrical prose, Cabell delves into the nuanced portrayals of American life and identity that Hergesheimer famously captured. His examination reveals not only the author's narrative techniques and aesthetic sensibilities but also situates Hergesheimer within the broader context of early 20th-century American literature, highlighting the interplay of realism and romanticism that pervades his narratives. James Branch Cabell, an influential figure in the early 1900s literary scene, was well-acquainted with the complexities of modernity which permeated Hergesheimer's oeuvre. As a contemporary and admirer of Hergesheimer's work, Cabell's own experiences and extensive literary background enriched his interpretations, allowing for an insightful discussion on the evolution of American storytelling. His critical engagement with Hergesheimer serves as a reflection not only of admiration but also of Cabell's commitment to elevating American literature through rigorous analysis. For scholars, students, and enthusiasts of literary criticism, this essay offers a profound investigation into Hergesheimer's artistic vision through the lens of a keen observer. Cabell's work not only enhances our appreciation of Hergesheimer's contributions but also invites readers to reflect on the broader implications of American literature during a transformative era. It is a must-read for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of early modern American fiction.

    Liberalism as a Way of Life

    Where do you get your values and sensibilities from? If you grew up in a Western democracy, the answer is probably liberalism. Conservatives are right about one thing: liberalism is the ideology of our times, as omnipresent as religion once was. Yet, as Alexandre Lefebvre argues in Liberalism as a Way of Life, many of us are liberal without fully realizing it—or grasping what it means. Misled into thinking that liberalism is confined to politics, we fail to recognize that it's the water we swim in, saturating every area of public and private life, shaping our psychological and spiritual outlooks, and influencing our moral and aesthetic values—our sense of what is right, wrong, good, bad, funny, worthwhile, and more. This eye-opening book shows how so many of us are liberal to the core, why liberalism provides the basis for a good life, and how we can make our lives better and happier by becoming more aware of, and more committed to, the beliefs we already hold. 
     
     
     
    A lively, engaging, and uplifting guide to living well, the liberal way, Liberalism as a Way of Life is filled with examples from television, movies, stand-up comedy, and social media—from Parks and Recreation and The Good Place to the Borat movies and Hannah Gadsby. Along the way, you'll also learn about seventeen benefits of being a liberal and practical exercises to increase these rewards.

    The Holy Grail, the head of Christ, the elixir of life, vast treasure and powerful political conspiracies. All of these and more are part of the tale of that enigmatic warrior brotherhood we know as the Knights Templar. It is said they discovered a great secret buried deep beneath the Temple of Solomon and gathered together in-order to protect it from generation to generation. Over time they were feared by all their enemies, not least of which was eventually the Catholic Church itself. A powerful and mighty brotherhood with real hidden secrets that spanned across the known world and even beyond into the new world of the Americas. And all of this from the humble origins of a handful of supposedly poor warrior monks. 
     
    The truth is that the Templars had found great treasure. It gave them immense wealth, property and power. Their strength was so great that monarchs of Europe feared them and some plotted their demise. 
     
    But their treasure was more than material wealth; it was also philosophically, mystically and spiritually profound. So profound that it was in fact the ultimate secret that has been hidden and protected by secret societies ever since. Prepare to discover the truth.
