Martina Napolitano explores the poetics of one of the most significant Russian authors of the 20th century: Sasha Sokolov.
Threats are an inherent part of human interaction and can manifest in various forms. At their core, threats are attempts to instill fear or assert power by creating the perception of potential harm, whether physical, emotional, or psychological. The nature of threats is complex because they exist on a spectrum, ranging from subtle and covert forms of intimidation to overt and aggressive expressions of force. Understanding the nature of threats is essential, as it allows individuals and communities to recognize and respond to them effectively. A threat can be defined as any statement, action, or behavior that creates a sense of fear or danger in another person. It involves the intention to coerce, control, or manipulate someone by presenting the possibility of harm. Threats do not necessarily have to be acted upon for them to have a significant impact; the mere perception of harm can be enough to evoke a response. For instance, the threat of violence—whether verbal, physical, or implied—can lead to significant emotional distress, anxiety, and a shift in one’s behavior, even in the absence of any actual harm being done. This highlights the psychological aspect of threats: the fear and tension they generate are often more powerful than the harm that might actually occur. Threats can be both explicit and implicit. Explicit threats are direct and clear in their intent, such as saying “If you do this, I will hurt you” or “You will pay for this.” These types of threats leave little room for misinterpretation and often provoke an immediate response. Implicit threats, on the other hand, are more subtle and may not directly articulate the intended harm. They may involve hints, body language, or situations that suggest harm without overtly stating it. An example of an implicit threat might be a comment like, “You wouldn’t want something bad to happen, would you?” which leaves the recipient uncertain but still fearful of what may follow.Voir livre
Plato is one of the towering figures in Western philosophy, whose works have significantly shaped the course of intellectual history. He was an Athenian philosopher during the Classical period in Ancient Greece, known for his dialogues, which form the foundation of Western philosophy and science. Plato’s philosophy was not just about abstract thought; it was deeply practical, aiming to guide human conduct and societal organization towards justice and virtue. His Academy continued to function for nearly a thousand years, illustrating the enduring legacy of his intellectual pursuits. The Apology of Socrates is a philosophical text detailing the speech Socrates gives during his trial in 399 BC in Athens for charges of corrupting the youth and impiety (not believing in the gods of the state and introducing new deities). The Apology not only serves as a defense but also as a profound statement on living philosophically, the nature of wisdom, and the value of an examined life, even in the face of death. Frank Marcopolos lives in Florida with his dog, Sparky.Voir livre

I’ve already written a couple of books on prophecy and premonitions including my own experiences. But as an engineer I felt that I really had not fully communicated what I’ve learned about these abilities and how we can apply this knowledge to our lives. Thus the purpose of this book is to be as detailed as I can be about what premonitions are and how you can use them to improve your life and change your probable futures. As an engineer and experiencer of many modes of premonitions and prophecies I feel I have a lot to offer here and want you the reader to benefit from what I’ve learned. Historical prophecies are also covered as are the real source of premonitional abilities, techniques to see your own futures, how far ahead people can see the future, how to use these techniques with a group of people, and much more on the importance of prophecy in our world. The ability to change the direction of your fate is also discussed.Voir livre
