Sinopsis

Fashion in Politics explores the powerful connection between clothing and political expression, revealing how fashion serves as a potent tool for communication, activism, and challenging established power structures. The book argues that clothing functions as a nonverbal form of political discourse, capable of conveying complex ideas and uniting diverse groups. Intriguingly, fashion choices have historically demarcated social hierarchies, from ancient sumptuary laws to elaborate royal attire. Moreover, marginalized groups have strategically used clothing to defy dominant narratives and demand social change, demonstrating the agency individuals possess in shaping political discourse through everyday sartorial choices.

 
The book approaches this dynamic relationship by first establishing a theoretical framework, drawing from semiotics, sociology, and cultural studies. It then delves into historical case studies, such as the French Revolution and the Suffragette movement, analyzing specific sartorial choices and their impact on public opinion. Visual analyses, historical documents, and firsthand accounts support the book's arguments.

 
Ultimately, Fashion in Politics culminates in an examination of social media's role in amplifying the political significance of fashion, offering readers a deeper understanding of visual cues in political discourse.

The Ancient Wisdom of Baseball -...

Christian Sheppard

“For those who love baseball, the game holds deep personal meaning and echoes to the past that are undeniable but often hard to articulate. Christian Sheppard’s The Ancient Wisdom of Baseball is a love letter to baseball that explains its connections to our inner lives and to classical lore in a way that makes one pine for Opening Day.”  —THEO EPSTEIN
 
Who are you, how are you supposed to live, and what about happiness? Answers to age-old questions are offered in classic myths about heroes, gods, and monsters, and at the ballgame.
 
In The Ancient Wisdom of Baseball, author Christian Sheppard interweaves Homer’s epics with glorious stories from the green fields of America’s pastime, celebrating Achilles’ courage and Odysseus’ cunning along with the virtues of Hall of Fame
    players such as Jackie Robinson and Babe Ruth and of great teams such as the 2004 Red Sox and the 2016 Cubs. Along the way, Sheppard humorously recollects trying to raise his baby daughter true to the teachings of ancient myth and his beloved game.
    The result is an endearing, insightful, and inspiring guide to cultivating virtue and becoming the hero of your own life’s odyssey.
