Summary

In "Feeding the Mind," Lewis Carroll weaves a captivating tapestry of whimsy and intellect, merging playful narrative with profound philosophical inquiry. Through clever dialogues and fantastical scenarios, Carroll explores the expansive realms of imagination and thought, inviting readers to reconsider the boundaries of knowledge. His trademark blend of absurdity and logical play creates a unique literary style that not only entertains but also challenges conventional wisdom, echoing the spirit of the Victorian era's burgeoning interest in science, literacy, and the nature of reality. Lewis Carroll, born Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, was an enigmatic figure whose dual identity as a mathematician and writer profoundly influenced his storytelling. His fascination with language, numbers, and the whimsical tendencies of the human mind are vividly reflected in this work. Carroll's experiences as an educator and his interactions with children provided him with insights into the importance of fostering creativity and critical thinking, which are central themes throughout "Feeding the Mind." This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the intersection of imagination and intellect, as well as for those who seek to understand the intricacies of logic through the lens of playful absurdity. Carroll's enchanting prose offers both a delightful reading experience and a thoughtful commentary on the art of learning, making it an invaluable addition to the literature of both fantasy and philosophy.

    Sumer: The History of the Cities...

    When American archaeologists discovered a collection of cuneiform tablets in Iraq in the late 19th century, they were confronted with a language and a people who were at the time only scarcely known to even the most knowledgeable scholars of ancient Mesopotamia: the Sumerians. The exploits and achievements of other Mesopotamian peoples, such as the Assyrians and Babylonians, were already known to a large segment of the population through the Old Testament and the nascent field of Near Eastern studies had unraveled the enigma of the Akkadian language that was widely used throughout the region in ancient times, but the discovery of the Sumerian tablets brought to light the existence of the Sumerian culture, which was the oldest of all the Mesopotamian cultures. 
Although the Sumerians continue to get second or even third billing compared to the Babylonians and Assyrians, perhaps because they never built an empire as great as the Assyrians or established a city as enduring and great as Babylon, they were the people who provided the template of civilization that all later Mesopotamians built upon. The Sumerians are credited with being the first people to invent writing, libraries, cities, and schools in Mesopotamia (Ziskind 1972, 34), and many would argue that they were the first people to create and do those things anywhere in world. 
For a people so great it is unfortunate that their accomplishments and contributions, not only to Mesopotamian civilization but to civilization in general, largely go unnoticed by the majority of the public. Perhaps the Sumerians were victims of their own success; they gradually entered the historical record, established a fine civilization, and then slowly submerged into the cultural patchwork of their surroundings.

    The State and Revolution (1917), by Vladimir Lenin, describes the role of the State in society, the necessity of proletarian revolution, and the theoretic inadequacies of social democracy in achieving revolution to establish the dictatorship of the proletariat.
Lenin began the composition of an early draft of State and Revolution while in exile in Switzerland in 1916, under the title "Marxism on the State".
"Soviets", legislative bodies of workers and peasants were the de facto governments of Petrograd and many smaller cities. The Russian public was deeply upset with the continuation of Russia's involvement in World War One and the continued economic difficulties that it brought on. On November 7th The Congress of Soviets officially elected a coalition of Bolsheviks, Socialist Revolutionaries and Mensheviks to govern. Through the Red Guards, paramilitary organizations of revolutionary workers, sailors and soldiers; the Soviet government was able to storm The Winter Palace and officially abolishing the Provisional government. The revolution was not uniformly accepted among all Russians, resistance and disruption would occur routinely leading up to The Russian Civil War. A particular issue that Lenin covers in The State and Revolution was the right of nations to secession (The right to self determination); during the composition of this book The Mensheviks of Georgia declared independence soon after The Revolution forming The Democratic Republic of Georgia.
Among other famous Marxists there were also: Georgi Plekhanov, Joseph Stalin, Leon Trotsky, Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Ernst Bloch, Pyotr Kropotkin, Jean-Paul Charles Aymard Sartre, Wilhelm Reich, Perry Anderson.
