Sinossi

In "For Aulus Caecina," penned in 69 BC, Marcus Tullius Cicero showcases his exceptional rhetorical prowess while addressing a legal case of considerable public interest. This work is a masterclass in the art of persuasion, blending sharp logic with emotive appeal, as Cicero defends his client, Aulus Caecina, against charges of illegal possession of a disputed inheritance. The literary style is characterized by Cicero's elegant and fluid Latin prose, replete with rhetorical devices that illuminate the intricacies of his arguments, placing this text within the broader context of Roman oratory and legal discourse. Notably, Cicero's ability to intertwine personal anecdotes with legal principles exemplifies the humanistic approach that shaped the literary and philosophical currents of his time. Marcus Tullius Cicero, born in 106 BC, emerged as one of the foremost figures in Roman politics and philosophy. His extensive experience as a lawyer, politician, and statesman provided him with invaluable insights into the workings of the Roman legal system and the social dynamics of his era. Cicero's deep commitment to justice and the Republic influenced his writings profoundly, fostering a legacy that would resonate through the ages and inspire countless thinkers and orators. "For Aulus Caecina" is not merely a legal defense; it is a compelling exploration of the intersection of law and ethics, making it essential reading for students of rhetoric, law, and Roman history. Cicero's ability to evoke empathy while arguing with intellectual rigor ensures that this work endures as a significant contribution to the canon of classical literature. Engaging with Cicero's text invites readers to reflect on the enduring power of words and the importance of justice in society.

    Lewen Weldon was mapping the desert of Egypt when the First World War broke out. A fluent Arabic speaker, he was recruited to run a network of spies and confidential agents from a steam yacht onto the Syrian coast behind Turkish lines. He took his men ashore in small boats at night, which also allowed him to land and conduct personal interviews before returning back through the surf. This vivid tale of adventure becomes eyewitness history as we encounter Armenians escaping the massacres, passionate Arab nationalists, resolute Turkish soldiers and a heroic network of Jewish volunteers. Weldon's modesty and self-deprecating Irish wit, complete with a few prejudices, take us to the vivid heart of his experience. This is a story that simply had to be told.

It provides a myriad of skills in breathing exercises, mindfulness practices, cognitive restructuring, and enhanced communication, all to help women manage anger positively and healthfully.

This is an inventory as well as a personal guide for women who want to achieve emotional balance, serenity, and the strength to face the world's obstacles in poise and composure.

    A Story of Love Conquers All 
    This is a tell-all story: the good and the bad of parenting a child with Autism and ADHD. Do you need a laugh, a cry, or release from a heavy subject of diagnosis? Why not flick through the pages of this book. In your hands, you hold an overview of information that I have researched and used. It is filled with strategies and integrated therapy methods, and with parenting tips which have been a saving grace for me and my family. 
    This is a memoir which I hope will inspire, as it is based on real life experiences and my ongoing research. I’m an ordinary person, not a doctor. I can be an actress … Yet, the truth is that I’m a mother, here to tell you a love story where “love conquerors all”. Parenting in itself is hard work and a little extra challenging with special needs. If I can do it, you can do it! Parenthood is one of the greatest gifts a person can encounter. Wouldn’t you agree? 
    Our son has contributed into who I am today, and I hope my family’s story can help your child reach their full potential, as you read about all that I have learnt and applied; it has been a game changer.

    The New Negro - An Interpretation

    "Of all the voluminous literature on the Negro, so much is mere external view and commentary…We turn therefore in the other direction to the elements of truest social portraiture, and discover in the artistic self-expression of the Negro to-day a new figure on the national canvas and a new force in the foreground of affairs.” 
      
    The New Negro Movement of the 1920s marked a shift in the pursuit of African American equality. African American soldiers were returning home from World War I, and after fighting for freedoms abroad, they were inspired to continue that fight on their own soil. The “old” ways had focused on passively accepting social policies, but the “new” ways would harness their collective voices in defining their own identity. The intellectual and artistic movement of the Harlem Renaissance stirred a tremendous wave of social change. 
      
    The New Negro was edited by Dr. Alain LeRoy Locke, a great intellectual and social visionary who is also considered the father of the Harlem Renaissance. This collection features works from many influential African American writers, such as Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and Countee Cullen. 
      
    Alain Locke dedicates this book to future generations. In keeping with his vision, inAudio is honored to share this audiobook production with an enduring legacy of listeners.

    Our world is out of balance; so far out of balance we've almost forgotten there was ever an alternative.We know the age-old story of oppression of the Goddess in favour of a patriarchal force, and the ways that same story has played out over the centuries and generations to impact upon all those who identify as women. 
    But what if we were to step back from that story and look at the ways it plays out more broadly too and how we - and our planet - are suffering as a result. 
    Divine Feminism invites us to look deeper at this inequality, and consider the ways that all things considered "feminine" have been treated as less than over the centuries and generations. 
    This book is your invitation to reconnect with those aspects within and for ourselves and the world; to find the sacred balance and flow that lies beyond the dualities society has inflicted upon us and allow them to bring you not only back to yourself, but to a life that helps you remind the world there is another way. 
    Ceryn Rowntree is a Therapist, Coach, Medium and host of the Divine Feminist podcast. A practicing witch, she lives with her dog Lagertha in Northumberland, UK and is never happier than when the two of them are walking in the woods together.
