Temporal Power: A Study in Supremacy

Marie Corelli

Sinopse

In "Temporal Power: A Study in Supremacy," Marie Corelli delves into the intricacies of political and spiritual authority, blending a rich tapestry of fiction, philosophy, and social commentary. The narrative is woven with her characteristic lyrical prose, embodying the tension between earthly rulers and the divine right of influence. Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century, a time marked by socio-political upheaval and a growing fascination with mysticism, Corelli contemplates the influence of unseen forces in the realm of power, challenging the reader's perceptions of sovereignty and morality. Corelli, often regarded as one of the bestselling authors of her time, was deeply influenced by the spiritual movements and the burgeoning interest in the occult that permeated Victorian society. Her experiences as a woman navigating a male-dominated literary landscape may have prompted her to address themes of dominance and spiritual awakening in this thought-provoking work. Corelli's profound insights and reflective narrative style showcase her desire to elevate the reader's consciousness concerning societal constructs. "Temporal Power" is a compelling read for those interested in the intersection of politics and metaphysics, as well as readers who appreciate rich, philosophical literature that critiques the status quo. Corelli's eloquent prose invites readers to reflect upon their own perceptions of power and the influence of the unseen, making this work a timeless exploration of human authority.

It's a tale that'll pull at your heartstrings and tickle your funny bone, because, let's be honest, who can't help but chuckle at the thought of top-hatted gentlemen and pinafore-clad lasses, even as we dig into the less genteel side of history?

The Ethics of Rhetoric

Richard M. Weaver

In The Ethics of Rhetoric, Richard M. Weaver evaluates the ethical and cultural role of rhetoric and its reflection on society. Weaver draws upon classical notions of rhetoric in Plato's Phaedrus, and he examines the effectiveness and implications of the manipulation of language in the works of Lincoln, Burke, and Milton. In this collection of essays, Weaver examines how different types of rhetoric persuade, their varying levels of effectiveness and credibility, and how one's manner of argumentation and style of persuasion are indicative of character. Ultimately, Weaver argues that the cultivation of pure language creates pure people. Initially published in 1953, The Ethics of Rhetoric remains timeless in its evaluation of rhetoric's role in society. 
Richard M. Weaver (1910-1963) an esteemed scholar, humanist, cultural critic, and political philosopher, revolutionized conservativism of the mid-twentieth century. Weaver's original scholarship produced groundbreaking insight on human nature and society.
