Synopsis

"War Period Literature" delves into how global conflicts shape human expression, using literature as a lens to understand wartime experiences. It argues that literature serves as a crucial historical record, often providing deeper insights than official accounts. For instance, the book explores how psychological theories of trauma help us understand PTSD themes in war narratives, or how political ideologies influence war representation in literature.

 
The book progresses by first establishing "war literature" as a genre, then examining specific historical periods like World War I, World War II, and the Cold War, showcasing diverse writer responses. Finally, it analyzes recurring themes such as trauma, heroism, and disillusionment. This approach reveals the unique perspectives and literary styles that emerged during each era, demonstrating literature's adaptability in capturing the impact of war on individuals and societies. It’s a valuable resource for understanding military history and the cultural impact of war.

    The Stonewall Brigade went on to fight in every major battle in the Eastern theater of the American Civil War, to the extent that of the 6,000 men who fought with the brigade over the course of four years, less than 200 remained by the time General Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox Courthouse on April 9, 1865. They were organized, trained, and mentored by one of the most revered military leaders in American history, and they made a decisive impact on battles like First Manassas, the 1862 Valley Campaign, and Chancellorsville. The brigade was virtually a spent force by the end of the Battle of Spotsylvania Courthouse in May 1864, which took place nearly a year after Stonewall Jackson himself had been mortally wounded at Chancellorsville. 
    Organized in Richmond, Virginia on October 22, 1861, Hood’s Texas Brigade was one of the most formidable fighting forces of the Confederate States during the American Civil War. At times undisciplined, the men who comprised this brigade were a group of fearless and determined volunteers-turned-soldiers. Over the course of the Civil War, the Texas Brigade engaged over 4,000 men and was comprised of the only Texans to fight with General Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia in the Eastern Theater. With the exception of Chancellorsville, these men fought in every major battle in the East, and they also participated in significant battles in the Western Theater. Of the more than 4,000 men who fought with the brigade over the course of the war, approximately 600 remained to surrender at Appomattox. The brigade suffered a horrific casualty rate of sixty-one percent and were lauded for their courage by men such as generals Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, James Longstreet, and Lee.

    "The Child and the Curriculum" is a book written by John Dewey, an American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer, and published in 1902. The book is a collection of essays and lectures that explore Dewey's ideas about the relationship between the child and the curriculum in education. 
    Dewey argues that education should focus on the child's experiences and interests, rather than on a predetermined curriculum that is disconnected from the child's life. He advocates for a child-centered approach to education that emphasizes active learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving. 
    According to Dewey, the curriculum should be flexible and adaptable to the needs and interests of each child, rather than a fixed set of subjects that all students must learn. He also emphasizes the importance of hands-on, experiential learning, and the integration of subjects across disciplines. 
    Overall, "The Child and the Curriculum" is a seminal work in the field of education that continues to influence educational theory and practice today. Dewey's ideas about child-centered education, active learning, and the integration of subjects continue to shape the way educators think about teaching and learning

    DESCRIPTION: 
    My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

    The Chemical Marriage

    The self-admitted author of The Chemical Marriage, Johann Valentin Andreæ, born in Württemberg in 1586, was twenty-eight years of age when that work was first published. It was presumably written about twelve years prior to its publication--or when the author was fifteen or sixteen years old. The fact is almost incredible that one so young could produce a volume containing the wealth of symbolic thought and philosophy hidden between the lines of The Chemical Marriage. This book makes the earliest known reference to Christian Rosencreutz, and is generally regarded as the third of the series of original Rosicrucian manifestoes. As a symbolic work, the book itself is hopelessly irreconcilable with the statements made by Andreæ concerning it. The story of The Chemical Marriage relates in detail a series of incidents occurring to an aged man, presumably the Father C.R.C. of the Fama and Confessio. If Father C.R.C. was born in 1378, as stated in the Confessio, and is identical with the Christian Rosencreutz of The Chemical Marriage, he was elevated to the dignity of a Knight of the Golden Stone in the eighty-first year of his life (1459). In the light of his own statements, it is inconceivable that Andreæ could have been Father Rosy Cross.

    A rare study that transforms our understanding of why youth die by suicide, why youth suicide clusters happen, and how to stop them 
     
     
     
    In Life under Pressure, Anna S. Mueller and Seth Abrutyn investigate the social roots of youth suicide and why certain places weather disproportionate incidents of adolescent suicides and suicide clusters. Through close examination of kids' lives in a community repeatedly rocked by youth suicide clusters, Mueller and Abrutyn reveal how the social worlds that youth inhabit and the various messages they learn in those spaces—about who they are supposed to be, mental illness, and help-seeking—shape their feelings about themselves and in turn their risk of suicide. With great empathy, Mueller and Abrutyn also identify the moments when adults unintentionally fail kids by not talking to them about suicide, teaching them how to seek help, or helping them grieve. 
     
     
     
    Through stories of survival, resilience, and even rebellion, Mueller and Abrutyn show how social environments can cause suicide and how they can be changed to help kids discover a life worth living. By revealing what it is like to live and die in one community, Life under Pressure offers tangible solutions to one of the twenty-first century's most tragic public health problems.
