Sinossi

Writing a best-selling book may seem like a distant dream, an almost unattainable goal. But what if I told you that this dream is more attainable than you might think? Over the years, many authors have started with a simple desire to share their stories, and through hard work, dedication, and strategy, they have turned that desire into a successful reality. In this chapter, we'll explore what it really means to write a best-selling book and how you can set yourself up to achieve this goal.The Nature of the Best-SellerFirst, it's important to understand what constitutes a bestseller. The definition may vary depending on who you ask, but in general terms, a bestseller is a book that achieves high sales numbers and frequently appears on bestseller lists, such as those of Amazon or The New York Times. New York Times. However, the success of a bestseller goes beyond sales. It's about connecting deeply with readers, touching their lives in a meaningful way.Inspiring StoriesMany famous authors started out with a simple manuscript and great hope. J.K. Rowling, for example, wrote Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone while struggling financially. Her book was rejected by several publishers before she finally found a publisher who believed in her story. Today, the Harry Potter series is a global phenomenon. Rowling is a shining example of how persistence and belief in your work can lead to success.Another example is Stephen King, who had his first book Carrie rejected by more than 30 publishers before it was published. King, now one of the best-selling authors of all time, shows that initial rejection is not an insurmountable obstacle, but just part of the journey.The Path to SuccessLearn Much More...

Exploring Shakespeare - A...

Bill Alexander

'Theatre is the greatest of collaborative art forms, and Shakespeare its greatest exponent: he used the form better than anyone else ever has to speak truth about the world.'
In Exploring Shakespeare, acclaimed theatre director Bill Alexander takes us inside the rehearsal room to reveal – in unprecedented and captivating detail – exactly what happens there. He examines the key relationship between the actors and the director, how they work together to bring Shakespeare's vision to life, and how choices are made that will shape every aspect of the play in production.
Full of acute observations and perceptions drawn from a long and brilliant career, the book covers the essential aspects of any Shakespeare production, from understanding the world of the play, to preparing and cutting the text, deciding on costumes and set design, handling soliloquies, and considering character and backstory.
There are detailed studies of eight plays spanning the full length and breadth of the Shakespearean canon, from Titus Andronicus and The Shrew to The Tempest, via Othello, Hamlet, Lear, The Merchant of Venice and Twelfth Night. Alexander also provides first-hand case studies of three of his own productions, including his famous Richard III starring Antony Sher.
Personal, forthright, and full of pragmatic advice, Exploring Shakespeare is a masterclass for directors and actors, and a fascinating insight for anyone interested in Shakespeare.
Bill Alexander was an Associate Director of the Royal Shakespeare Company, and then Artistic Director of Birmingham Rep. His landmark productions include Richard III and The Merry Wives of Windsor (both Olivier Award-winners), The Merchant of Venice, The Taming of the Shrew, Titus Andronicus and King Lear with Corin Redgrave.
'Bill Alexander is a brilliant director, whose work has powerfully shaped my understanding of Shakespeare's plays, Richard III most of all' James Shapiro, author of 1599: A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare

American Presidents: Behind the...

One Day University

Learn from four remarkable professors in a set of One Day University presentations on the great American Presidents. The framers of the Constitution were in uncharted territory when they created the office of the presidency. No one at that time had a clear vision of what the president of a national republic would do, and only the vaguest notion existed when George Washington took the oath in 1789. For nearly 250 years, our elected Presidents have played a role in shaping what the office has become. Thomas Jefferson described the presidency as a “splendid misery,” John Quincy Adams felt it was “harassing,” and Warren Harding said simply “It’s hell!" And yet somehow some of our most notable Presidents left office with remarkable accomplishments.

Happy Dreams of Liberty - An...

R. Isabela Morales

When Samuel Townsend died at his home in Madison County, Alabama, in November 1856, the fifty-two-year-old white planter left behind hundreds of slaves, thousands of acres of rich cotton land, and a net worth of approximately $200,000. In life, Samuel had done little to distinguish himself from other members of the South's elite slaveholding class. But he made a name for himself in death by leaving almost the entirety of his fortune to his five sons, four daughters, and two nieces: all of them his slaves. 
 
 
 
In this deeply researched, movingly narrated portrait of the extended Townsend family, R. Isabela Morales reconstructs the migration of this mixed-race family across the American West and South over the second half of the nineteenth century. Searching for communities where they could exercise their newfound freedom and wealth to the fullest, members of the family homesteaded and attended college in Ohio and Kansas; fought for the Union Army in Mississippi; mined for silver in the Colorado Rockies; and, in the case of one son, returned to Alabama to purchase part of the old plantation where he had once been held as a slave. In Morales's telling, the Townsends' story maps a new landscape of opportunity and oppression, where the meanings of race and freedom—as well as opportunities for social and economic mobility—were dictated by highly local circumstances.

History of Marathas EP10 - Death...

Vikrant Pande

The Badshah growled once more. He dismissed the men holding the weapons and indicated to a group of men who wore iron claws. At his glance, two of them came near Sambhaji. One of them behind him and one facing him. From his neck to the spine and from his throat to his stomach, the men pulled his skin down as the trumpets and horns started blowing. The men shouted Deen Deen! Skin peeled off Sambhaji's back, neck, chest and stomach. His whole body was a bloodied mess.
But Sambhaji did not allow his voice to be heard by anyone present. He did not scream or shout. Clenching his teeth he bore the intense and almost unbearable pain. His body, now red with blood, shivered from head to toe. Like the milk which gathers at the base of the Shivalinga, his blood gathered at his feet. Aurangzeb laughed hysterically, seeing Sambhaji's body now peeled like the way a butcher skins a goat.
