Synopsis

"Ancient Law" explores the historical origins of modern legal systems by examining the legal codes, court systems, and concepts of justice in ancient civilizations like Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. It argues that fundamental legal principles such as fairness and the rule of law, often taken for granted today, have roots in these early societies. The book uniquely compares different ancient legal systems, revealing common themes and divergent approaches, and providing a broader understanding of legal evolution.

 
The book traces the evolution of legal principles from rudimentary retribution to more sophisticated justice notions and examines the development of legal institutions from informal dispute resolutions to formalized court systems. For instance, the Code of Hammurabi, one of the earliest known legal codes, reveals much about ancient societal values and punishments.

 
Understanding the social, political, and economic contexts of these ancient laws is crucial, as it sheds light on the assumptions embedded within our current legal structures. The approach taken in "Ancient Law" is academic, utilizing both primary and secondary sources to ensure a comprehensive analysis.

 
The book is structured in three parts, beginning with an introduction to basic concepts such as offenses and punishments, moving to the evolution of court systems, and concluding with an analysis of the lasting influence of ancient law on modern legal systems. This historical and political exploration is intended for those interested in legal history or political science.

  • The Nail in the Skull and Other Victorian Urban Legends - cover

    The Nail in the Skull and Other...

    In the last fifty years, folklorists have amassed an extraordinary corpus of contemporary legends including "the Choking Doberman," "the Eaten Ticket," and "the Vanishing Hitchhiker." But what about the urban legends of the past? These legends and tales have rarely been collected, and when they occasionally appear, they do so as ancestors or precursors of the urban legends of today, rather than as stories in their own right. 
     
     
     
    In The Nail in the Skull and Other Victorian Urban Legends, Simon Young fills this gap for British folklore (and for the wider English-speaking world) of the 1800s. Young introduces seventy Victorian urban legends ranging from "Beetle Eyes" to the "Shoplifter's Dilemma" and from "Hands in the Muff" to "the Suicide Club." While a handful of these stories are already known, the vast majority have never been identified, and they have certainly never received scholarly treatment. 
     
     
     
    Young begins the volume with a lengthy introduction assessing nineteenth-century media, emphasizing the importance of the written word to the perpetuation and preservation of these myths. He draws on numerous nineteenth-century books, periodicals, and ephemera, including digitized newspaper archives—particularly the British Newspaper Archive, an exciting new hunting ground for folklorists.

    As a result of vaccines and various other “modern” medical topics, autism has become more common than ever. Autism has become more broadly known or understood, at least to some degree. In the last 10 years, research has discovered high-function autism, which was never before believed to be autism. In the Dealing with Autism series, you will learn about the “root” problem autistics deal with, how to spot it, and how to teach your loved one how to overcome it. As a high-function autistic with nearly 20 years in education, I was able to create a lesson plan, which I originally designed for myself. Due to the exceptional outcome of following my own program, people no longer believe I am autistic. Dealing with Autism series is written in everyday language, so anyone can understand and follow. By the entire support group following this program, the loved one will reach new heights. Follow the entire series to see the most improvement in your loved one. This has two parts. One is for the family and support group, while the other is for the person with autism which is communicated in the "black and white" picture that autistics understand.
