Sinopse

Historical Methods offers a comprehensive exploration of how historians reconstruct and interpret the past. It emphasizes the importance of rigorous methodologies, such as source criticism, to discern fact from fabrication and to recognize the biases inherent in historical accounts. Understanding these methods allows anyone to critically evaluate historical narratives encountered in everyday life, which is crucial for informed citizenship and media literacy.

 
The book uniquely emphasizes the ethical dimensions of historical research, urging consideration of the impact on communities and respectful engagement with diverse perspectives. The book progresses systematically, beginning with fundamental concepts like primary and secondary sources and the challenges of incomplete data. It then delves into key methodologies, including the use of archaeology and quantitative methods, and concludes with a discussion of historical interpretation.

 
For example, it examines how archaeology uncovers physical evidence, enriching our understanding beyond written records. By exploring the evolution of historical methodologies and the challenges of working with biased information, Historical Methods equips readers with the tools necessary to engage critically with the past.

The Hebrew Saga

Gershon Rubin

A personal and philosophical meditation on the Hebrew Bible, its stories, and its sages.In this volume, Gershon Rubin attempts to draw the secrets of the antediluvian world into the modern day. Through the lens of a lifetime of spiritual learning, he explores the ancient saga of creation, Adam and Eve, and the generations to come after. As Rubin states by way of introduction to The Hebrew Saga, “My first name, Gershon, is similar to the Greek word geron (old man). Thus through my ‘geronoscope,’ I view the over-four-thousand-year-long written history of the Hebrew nation, which resulted in the origination of this my world-view, or world outlook.”

Lessons Learned - A Teacher &...

Sr. Michael F. Burke

A debut memoirist reflects on his career as a high school teacher and coach in this essay collection...The topics include the author’s experiences coaching multiple sports and the differences between teaching at private versus public schools...Burke eschews a standard chronological narrative for a more reflective approach that positions autobiographical vignettes as metaphors for the themes and lessons that undergirded his career...The text certainly doesn’t glamorize teaching as a profession, and Burke tells his stories with the salty vocabulary of a battle-hardened veteran, but the work warmly acknowledges the inspiration, motivation, and rewarding feelings that come with helping teenagers grow into adults. The book’s final essay, an ode to the poetry of Walt Whitman, offers a powerful defense of the necessity of literature...A well-crafted meditation on teaching that balances comic anecdotes with poignant reflections.–Kirkus Reviews 
How introspection, philosophy, and heartfelt bullshit can help you reach retirement with your sanity, self-respect, and sense of humor intact. 
Lessons from a Career Educator: An honest and introspective look at a teacher’s life. From early childhood through his retirement, Burke shares stories and lessons learned that helped him and can help you make it to the finish line. This is not the story of a Magical Teacher. Burke is an average individual working hard to be a good educator by trying first to be a decent person. Most of his anecdotes will make you laugh, some will make you cry (the good cry), a few will make you cringe, but all will make you think.
