Synopsis

In "Memorials of Human Superstition," Jean Louis de Lolme meticulously dissects the myriad ways in which superstition has influenced human behavior and societal structures throughout history. Written in a compelling analytical style characteristic of the Enlightenment period, de Lolme uses a blend of philosophical inquiry and historical narrative to examine how irrational beliefs have shaped cultures and governance. By presenting a critical view of superstition as not merely personal but also a public concern, he situates his work within the broader intellectual context of 18th-century Enlightenment thought, making it a significant contribution to the discourse on reason versus superstition. Jean Louis de Lolme, a Swiss political thinker and historian, was profoundly impacted by the intellectual currents of his time, particularly the rise of rationalism and empirical inquiry. His experiences as an observer of various political systems likely influenced his critical examination of superstitious beliefs and their implications on civil society. De Lolme's extensive travels and engagement with diverse cultures provided him with a unique vantage point from which to scrutinize the persistence of superstition across different contexts. This book is a must-read for scholars and readers interested in the intersections of history, psychology, and philosophy. De Lolme'Äôs insights not only illuminate the persistence of irrationality in human nature but also provoke deep reflection on modern beliefs and practices. "Memorials of Human Superstition" serves as both a historical record and a cautionary tale, urging readers to recognize the often-subtle ways that superstition continues to pervade contemporary life.

    A collection of essays about Armenian identity and belonging in the diaspora. 
     
     
     
    In the century since the Armenian Genocide, Armenian survivors and their descendants have written of a vast range of experiences using storytelling and activism, two important aspects of Armenian culture. Wrestling with questions of home and self, diasporan Armenian writers bear the burden of repeatedly telling their history, as it remains widely erased and obfuscated. Telling this history requires a tangled balance of contextualizing the past and reporting on the present, of respecting a culture even while feeling lost within it. 
     
     
     
    We Are All Armenian brings together established and emerging Armenian authors to reflect on the complications of Armenian ethnic identity today. These personal essays elevate diasporic voices that have been historically silenced inside and outside of their communities, including queer, multiracial, and multiethnic writers. The eighteen contributors to this contemporary anthology explore issues of displacement, assimilation, inheritance, and broader definitions of home. Through engaging creative nonfiction, many of them question what it is to be Armenian enough inside an often unacknowledged community.

    relationship. 
    • Is it possible to love without the interference of the mind? 
    • When the mind becomes supreme, all-important, then there can be no 
    affection.

    Stop worrying about taking notes, losing track of what you've learned or working out what to learn next. This course guides you through the Mandarin language step by step. Each new question adds a tiny building block to what you already know rather than introducing entirely new sentences and telling you to memorize them. Instead you can intuitively build up an understanding of the language through incremental logical steps.Each word introduced is repeated throughout the course using a spaced repetition system. That means first at roughly 10 seconds, then 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5, 10, 20, 40, 1 hour etc until it becomes become fixed in your mind. Sentences throughout the course deliberately make use of vocabulary you learned earlier, so words are naturally revised without a deliberate focus on doing so.Grammar, tones and pronunciation are all taught but never drilled. Instead they are incorporated into each question.
