Sinopsis

Sumerian Calendar explores the origins of timekeeping with the first recorded calendar system developed in Mesopotamia. This world history book reveals how profoundly the Sumerian calendar, with its lunar cycles and adjustments for the solar year, influenced agriculture, religious festivals, and administration within Sumerian society. Intriguingly, this early system laid the groundwork for calendars still in use today, highlighting the Sumerians' deep understanding of astronomy. The book examines the calendar's structure, its societal integration, and its lasting legacy, drawing on cuneiform texts and archaeological findings. Furthermore, it traces the calendar's influence on later civilizations like the Babylonians and Assyrians, and its connections to Hebrew and Greek calendars. This approach combines detailed calendar analysis with its social and cultural significance.

 
Organized to guide readers, the book first introduces the basics, then explores its use in Sumerian life, and finally, traces its influence on subsequent cultures.

    There are a lot of books about writing out there. If you’re like most writers, you’ve just about read them all. But learning how to write (and organize and outline and plot and edit and save the cat and market a breakout book) is one thing. Making and living a sustainable creative life in the face of...everything...is an entirely different matter. To know how to do that, we need to take a look at what goes on between the lines of our lives as writers so that we can live them with maybe a little more thought and intention--no matter the many interior and exterior obstacles that can threaten to derail our purpose. 
    In this companion book to her long-running podcast, Sara Zarr brings her sixteen-year publishing career and experience as a speaker, teacher, and mentor to a conversational and encouraging collection of hard-won insights about what it means not to just write (and perchance to publish), but to be a writer.

In the city of Huntsville, visit the Dead Children's Playground in gloomy Maple Hill Cemetery. In Jacksonville, feel the cold grip of the Old Mill Witch, rumored to protect the workers at the rickety cotton yarn mill.

    "Mental health is not a disease but a disability in which its reality can become problematic for everyone without help. The mass shootings stem from individuals who have not been help or are off their medications to avert them from criminal activity. Suicides are high amongst our youth, due to depression and those that surround them fail or refuse to acknowledge their cry for help. If we desire to live free and enjoy life, we urgently must answer the mentally ill in our families, communities and workplace cry for help, or they will inevitably kill us or themselves to gain attention we ignored."
