  The Three Sources and Three Component Parts of Marxism, by Lenin, is a concise article that examines the historical roots, essence, and content of Marxist teaching. Lenin wrote it on the 30th anniversary of the death of Karl Marx. 
  Soviet propaganda makers lifted a key quote from the article to use as a slogan for posters, inscriptions on monuments, or other propaganda purposes. The phrase was: "The might of Marx's teaching is in its truth."
  The book, The State and Revolution: The Marxist Theory of the State and the Tasks of the Proletariat in the Revolution, was written while preparing for the socialist revolution. At this time the role of the state was of prime importance to the Bolsheviks. Lenin used the text to justify the need for a dictatorship of the proletariat. He also provided definitions for imperialism, socialism, and communism.

  Since the first 'Welch' sailor set foot on Japanese shores in the seventeenth century to the present-day presence of high-tech Japanese companies in the Valleys, Wales and Japan are two nations with deeply entwined roots.
  
  Captured in this groundbreaking book is a chorus of modern-day Welsh migrants to Japan. There is Catharine who, in 1965, followed her Japanese husband to an 'out of kilter' house in the seaside town of Zushi; Jac, the 'capitalist ski bum', who guides tourists through the bear-infested wilds of snowy Hokkaidō, while on a volcanic island in the Seto Inland Sea, Simon clears jungle vines to develop his vegan farm.
  
  There are also actors, writers, teachers, an ex-bouncer turned martial artist, a filmmaker, a games localiser, and many more. There are even Japanese fans who promote Welsh culture in their homeland. Together they form a polyphonic group portrait based on oral-history techniques, mixing travel writing, character study and reportage, while proving an ear for natural speech.
  
  Fresh, engaging, with a strong sense of space and place, but above all, a knack for crafting a life story, this volume of documentary literature presents universal themes of work, adventure, reinvention and survival. Here are people discovering and negotiating the land, the life and the culture of Japan, and putting down 'transplantable roots'.

  Charity - The Heat of Generosity...

  Charity is more than just an act of giving; it is a profound expression of humanity’s compassion and interconnectedness. It goes beyond financial donations and extends to time, effort, and kindness. True charity is rooted in the desire to uplift others without expecting anything in return. It is an act of selflessness that fosters unity, strengthens communities, and creates a ripple effect of goodness in society. 
  Throughout history, generosity has been a defining trait of civilizations. Ancient cultures placed great emphasis on the duty to help the less fortunate, often tying charitable deeds to religious and moral obligations. From the communal support systems of indigenous tribes to the organized relief efforts of modern philanthropic institutions, the essence of charity has remained the same—helping those in need and making the world a better place. Whether through structured organizations or spontaneous acts of kindness, the spirit of giving has shaped societies and continues to do so today. 
  The impact of charity is not limited to the recipients alone. Studies have shown that giving has profound psychological and emotional benefits for the giver. The act of helping others releases endorphins, creating a sense of fulfillment and happiness. It also fosters a greater sense of purpose, reinforcing the idea that individuals have the power to make a difference, no matter how big or small their contributions may be. Many people who engage in charitable acts find themselves experiencing a deeper connection to their community, leading to a greater sense of belonging and overall well-being.
