  The Arts in Jewish Culture -...

  Jewish artistic expression has evolved over centuries, shaped by religious traditions, historical experiences, and cultural exchanges. From ancient biblical times to the modern era, Jewish creativity has flourished in music, literature, and visual arts, reflecting both continuity and adaptation. Despite periods of persecution and displacement, Jewish artists have found ways to preserve and redefine their cultural identity, using art as a means of storytelling, worship, and resistance. 
  Religious tradition has played a central role in shaping Jewish artistic expression. In early Jewish history, art was often intertwined with religious observance, as seen in the intricate designs of synagogues, illuminated manuscripts, and Torah decorations. The prohibition against graven images, derived from the Second Commandment, led to a focus on symbolic and abstract representation rather than figurative depictions. This influenced the development of decorative arts, such as calligraphy, textiles, and ritual objects, which incorporated elaborate geometric patterns and Hebrew inscriptions. Music also became an integral part of worship, with ancient melodies passed down through generations in synagogue chanting and liturgical songs. 
  The Jewish diaspora further enriched artistic traditions by exposing Jewish communities to diverse cultural influences. As Jews migrated across different regions, they absorbed elements from the surrounding societies while maintaining distinct artistic styles. In medieval Europe, Jewish scholars and poets contributed to the Golden Age of Hebrew literature, particularly in Spain, where they engaged with Islamic and Christian intellectual traditions. In Eastern Europe, Yiddish theater and folk music flourished, blending local influences with Jewish themes. Meanwhile, in the Middle East and North Africa, Jewish artisans adapted their crafts to fit regional aesthetics while preserving religious symbolism.

  Hell With the Fire Out: A...

  Written by Arthur Quinn 
  Read by Ed Quinn (with an introduction written and read by Julia Whelan) 
  The final book from esteemed Berkeley historian Arthur Quinn, Hell With the Fire Out is both a complex chronicle of a forgotten chapter in American Indian history and a vivid detailing of human foible, folly, and failure. With a novelistic flair, Quinn outlines the sad inevitability of America's westward expansion in its post-Civil War era. Wrangling all the inherent contradictions — Quaker Peace Policy vs Grant and Sherman's War Department; inter- and inner-tribal conflicts; the opposing attitudes of the region's White settlers — Quinn gives us a battle story not merely between nations and governments, but within the hearts of the very individuals at its center. 
  This is the first time an audio version of this book has been available and it is read by none other than the author's son, actor Ed Quinn (Two Broke Girls, One Day at a Time, Tyler Perry's The Oval).

  Muromachi Period - Ashikaga...

  The Muromachi Period, spanning from 1336 to 1573, marked a significant turning point in Japanese history, characterized by the rise of the Ashikaga Shogunate and the gradual shift toward decentralized feudal rule. This period emerged following the fall of the Kamakura Shogunate, as Ashikaga Takauji established his military government in Kyoto. The political, social, and cultural transformations that unfolded during this time laid the foundation for the later Sengoku era, a period of constant warfare among regional warlords. 
  The decline of the Kamakura Shogunate stemmed from mounting dissatisfaction among the samurai class, who had grown discontent with the Hojo regents’ rule. The Mongol invasions of Japan in 1274 and 1281 had placed immense strain on the government, as victory brought no financial rewards for the warriors who had fought to defend the nation. With no lands to distribute as compensation, loyalty to the shogunate weakened, creating an opportunity for ambitious leaders to challenge its authority. Amid this unrest, Emperor Go-Daigo launched the Kenmu Restoration (1333–1336), an effort to reestablish imperial rule. However, his failure to recognize the interests of the samurai led to his downfall. 
  Ashikaga Takauji, originally a supporter of the emperor, turned against him and seized power, defeating both imperial and Kamakura loyalists. In 1336, Takauji established his own military government, known as the Muromachi Bakufu, in Kyoto. Unlike the Kamakura Shogunate, which ruled from a distant military capital, the Muromachi Shogunate was strategically located in the heart of Japan’s cultural and political sphere. Takauji’s rule was solidified in 1338 when he was officially

  First responders run toward things the rest of us run away from. 
  What makes a person want to become a first responder? Who would become a cop after her brother died in the line of duty? What guy rejects joining a lucrative family business to become a local firefighter instead? Why would a Mexican American combat veteran choose to work as a medic for the Border Patrol, knowing the stigma he’d face?  
  One thing all these people have in common is that none of them wants to be called a hero.  
  First responders keep going to work every day, even though that means confronting the worst situ­ations imaginable. Their inspiring and unique stories are almost always overlooked when it comes to patri­otic recognition of service and sacrifice.  
  As in his New York Times bestselling book Unbroken Bonds of Battle, retired Marine Johnny Joey Jones didn’t have to look further than his closest family and friends to find frontline defenders—some he’s known since childhood, some he served with, and others have become friends and mentors. With vivid storytelling, Jones brings to life dramatic res­cues, heart-wrenching losses, and awe-inspiring acts of courage. He delves deep into what drives these brave men and women, offering an intimate look at their personal and professional lives.  
  Behind the Badge will leave you moved, inspired, and reminded of the true meaning of heroism—because these first responders are home­town heroes at heart.
