Sinopse

Augustan Age Culture explores the pivotal role of literature in shaping the Roman Empire under Augustus. This book examines how writers like Virgil, Horace, and Ovid were instrumental in crafting a new "golden age," promoting Augustan ideology, and solidifying a distinct Roman identity. Augustus strategically used literature as political propaganda to legitimize his rule and instill unity, demonstrating the profound connection between cultural production and imperial power.

 
The book illuminates how the Aeneid became a foundational text for Roman identity, while Horace's odes celebrated the era's peace and prosperity.

 
The book progresses systematically, first establishing the historical and social context of Augustan Rome, then delving into specific literary works and genres to analyze their role in propagating Augustan ideology. By providing detailed textual analysis and drawing on recent scholarship, Augustan Age Culture offers readers a comprehensive understanding of this complex era. This approach highlights the agency of writers in shaping their culture, presenting a nuanced view beyond simple propaganda.

    On August 6, 2011, a tragic event unfolded when Extortion 17, a Chinook helicopter, was shot down, resulting in the loss of 30 American servicemen, including 17 Navy SEALs from the legendary SEAL Team 6. It marked the largest loss of life during the War on Terror, a war America was told started because of Osama bin Laden and 9/11. 
    In Alan Parrot's narratives, an oral history captured by Nick Noe, he puts tragic events, including 9/11, Benghazi, and Extortion 17, into perspective. Alan, an Arabist, spent much of his life with royalty in the Middle East and learned about such national tragedies through observation, conversations, and omission. He explains how diplomatic immunity played a role in 9/11 and details the weapons transfer that resulted in the tragedy in Benghazi.  
    Behind these heart-wrenching incidents lies a web of secrecy and deception. Startling revelations have come to light, thanks to the evidence shared with the grief-stricken Gold Star families during the debrief. Astonishingly, it appears that Extortion 17 was not a random act of war, but rather a meticulously orchestrated setup. The threads of this conspiracy can be traced back to the historic Osama bin Laden raid, a mere three months prior, and thus 9/11. 
    Within the pages of this gripping book, you will embark on an extraordinary journey of discovery. Delve into the enigmatic concept of diya, the key that unlocks the truth behind Extortion 17. Unveiling secrets known to only a privileged few, Extortion 17's Why illuminates the darkest corners of a clandestine world. 
    Prepare to be captivated by a tale that challenges your perception of reality and sheds light on the shadows. Are you ready to unravel the mysteries and uncover the untold story of Extortion 17?

    In the winter of 1910, the river that brought life to Paris quickly became a force of destruction.  Torrential rainfall saturated the soil, and faulty engineering created a perfect storm of conditions that soon drowned Parisian streets, homes, businesses, and museums. The city seemed to have lost its battle with the elements. Given the Parisians' history of deep-seated social, religious, and political strife, it was questionable whether they could collaborate to confront the crisis. Yet while the sewers, Métro, and electricity failed around them, Parisians of all backgrounds rallied to save the city and one another. Improvising techniques to keep Paris functioning and braving the dangers of collapsing infrastructure and looters, leaders and residents alike answered the call to action. This newfound ability to work together proved a crucial rehearsal for an even graver crisis four years later, when France was plunged into World War I. On the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of the flood, Jeffrey H. Jackson captures here for the first time the drama and ultimate victory of man over nature.
