  Many people wonder why Jo starts a school for boys..even though Little Women mentions how much Jo loves boys many times. In Little Men, we can see how Jo and Friedrich wish that their boys grow to respect women, so could Jo starting a school for boys actually be a feminist act? 
  There are lots of people who say that Friedrich forced Jo to start a school or Friedrich forced Jo to become a teacher. None of that happens in the novel. So have these people even read Little Women? In the book, Jo is the one who says that she wants to start a school. Her exact words are Quote "even before I met my Fritz, I used to think how when I made my fortune and no one needed me at home, I'd hire a big house and pick up some poor fore-long little lads who hadn't any mothers and take care of them and make life jolly for them before it was too late. 
  I see so many of them going to ruin for want of help, and at the right minute. I love them, so to do anything for them, I seem to feel their wants and sympathize with their troubles. I know I should so like to be a mother to them". End quote. In the scene in the book where Jo explains her plans on starting school, she clearly says that what she wants to do is to have a flock of boys that she can nurture, she can take care of them and can be a mother to them and love them. A lot of people erase the maternal elements from Jo's character.

  Bigger Than Bernie - How We Go...

  Bernie Sanders's 2016 candidacy expanded the scope of political possibility in the United States, putting socialism and class politics back on the map. His radical campaign—not just for the Democratic presidential candidacy but against "the billionaire class"—helped catalyze other transformative left-wing politicians like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to seek and win office, just as he inspired teachers from West Virginia to Los Angeles to win hard-fought, historic strike campaigns. Sanders has, in short, helped cohere a new movement in American politics. 
   
   
   
  But even when coverage of Sanders takes stock of the sea change he has affected in American politics, it all too often fails to grasp what's unique about his approach. The senior senator from Vermont has demanded new policies and political approaches in this country—though he has also hinted at more, calling repeatedly for a "political revolution," something that he says would involve "millions of Americans" getting involved in politics not just at the ballot box, but in their workplaces and neighborhoods, too. 
   
   
   
  In this book, Micah Uetricht and Meagan Day go beyond a simple balance sheet of Democratic Party politics. In a clear and effective style, they detail what we need to do to get beyond the Sanders campaign or presidency to transform the US from top to bottom.

  Did you know that the first novel in the world was produced by a Japanese noblewoman? 
  Back in ancient times, the Japanese depended on Chinese characters (kanji) to write all sorts of documents and manuscripts, ranging from official letters to census records and poetry. It was only during the Heian period (794–1185 CE) that they began to create their very own writing system known today as kana. 
  The history of ancient Japan is filled with interesting events that involved many influential and legendary figures. However, some of the accounts were also infused with Japanese myths, which might make it difficult for curious readers to distinguish between facts and legends. 
  But you can safely put your concern aside. With this new Enthralling History book, you will discover an array of information and stories of the ancient Japanese, starting from the prehistoric era up until the Heian period, which saw the birth of the first samurai warriors. 
  Here’s just a small fraction of what you’ll discover:How the Jomon period earned its name and the impressive designs of early Japanese pottery.How rice cultivation first arrived in Japan and the transition into a more civilized society.The legendary kingdom of Yamatai and how it rose to power.The unique-looking kofun tombs and legends behind the persons interred within them.Vicious wars and assassinations of powerful figures in the imperial court.Interesting myths and the origins of Shinto, an indigenous Japanese religion.The flourishing culture and architecture of ancient Japan and the arrival of Buddhism.The bloody conflicts between the two earliest samurai clans.

  Determinism - Fate Coincidence...

  The question of whether humans possess free will has intrigued philosophers, scientists, and thinkers for centuries. At the heart of this debate lies the concept of determinism—the idea that every event or action is the result of preceding causes, governed by laws of nature and logic. If everything that happens is the result of a cause, can we truly say we have control over our decisions? Is free will simply an illusion? These questions challenge our sense of autonomy and personal responsibility, and they invite us to explore the complex relationship between fate, coincidence, and choice. 
  Determinism suggests that all events, including human actions, are preordained by prior causes. From a deterministic standpoint, the universe is a vast, interconnected web of cause and effect, where each moment flows seamlessly from the one before it. This view raises profound questions about the nature of human agency. If every decision we make, every thought we have, and every action we take is determined by a series of preceding events—genetic, environmental, and even cosmic—where does the space for free will lie? Are we merely puppets of fate, our strings pulled by forces beyond our control? 
  However, this deterministic view is not universally accepted. Many philosophers argue that humans can exercise free will—that we have the capacity to make choices independent of the deterministic forces at play. This belief in free will asserts that while factors such as genetics, upbringing, and circumstances may influence our decisions, we retain the ability to act in ways that transcend these influences. The challenge, then, is reconciling the possibility of free will with the idea that many of our actions may be shaped or even constrained by forces outside our conscious control.

  SOME POEMS OF ROGER CASEMENT -...

  Originally published in 1918 by the Talbot Press in Dublin, two years after his execution by the British Government for his involvement in the 1916 Easter Rising, Some Poems of Roger Casement has long been a collector's item. In life and in death, Roger Casement appears to contain many contradictions: decorated British diplomat, Irish Protestant and martyred Irish nationalist. He was a humanitarian, essayist and sometime poet, a public gentleman and a private lover.
  Over the years, Roger Casement's ghost has been the subject of endless controversies, co-opted into both the queer liberation movement in Ireland and the Republican movement. Predator or saviour, traitor or hero, maligned martyr or gay icon? The question depends on who you ask, and what aspects of Casement's life they choose to hold in focus, or to dismiss as a lie. —SEÁN HEWITT
  Includes a specially commissioned introduction by Seán Hewitt as well as the original 1918 introduction, written by Casement's cousin, Gertrude Parry.
