Beschreibung

In "The Last Days of the Romanovs," N. Sokolov immerses readers in the tragic final moments of the Romanov dynasty, employing a meticulous narrative style that combines historical precision with rich, evocative prose. The book is structured around the harrowing eyewitness accounts of those who witnessed the last days of Tsar Nicholas II and his family, set against the tumultuous backdrop of the Russian Revolution. Sokolov deftly interweaves personal anecdotes with broader socio-political commentary, providing a comprehensive exploration of the factors that led to the decline of imperial Russia. His deep understanding of the era enhances the literary context, drawing parallels between the Romanovs' fate and the complexities of power and governance in times of upheaval. N. Sokolov, a historian and passionate researcher, has dedicated his scholarly career to exploring the intricacies of early 20th-century Russia. His extensive background in Russian history informs not only the accuracy of his storytelling but also his empathy for the tragic figures within it. Raised amidst a rich tapestry of Russian culture, Sokolov's passion for history is evident in his meticulous approach to narrative, transforming historical events into a poignant exploration of human experience. "The Last Days of the Romanovs" is an indispensable read for anyone interested in the intersection of history and humanity. Sokolov's ability to capture the emotional and psychological depth of the Romanovs' final moments will resonate with those fascinated by tragic legacies and the human condition. This book is a compelling invitation to reflect on the complexities of power, loyalty, and betrayal in the face of imminent change.

    As World War II approached, the six most powerful media moguls in America and Britain tried to pressure their countries to ignore the fascist threat. The media empires of Robert McCormick, Joseph and Eleanor Patterson, and William Randolph Hearst spanned the United States, reaching tens of millions of Americans in print and over the airwaves with their isolationist views. Meanwhile in England, Lord Rothermere’s Daily Mail extolled Hitler’s leadership and Lord Beaverbrook’s Daily Express insisted that Britain had no interest in defending Hitler’s victims on the continent. 
     
     
     
    Kathryn S. Olmsted shows how these media titans worked in concert—including sharing editorial pieces and coordinating their responses to events—to influence public opinion in a right-wing populist direction, how they echoed fascist and anti‑Semitic propaganda, and how they weakened and delayed both Britain’s and America’s response to Nazi aggression.

    Gertrude Stein (February 3, 1874 - July 27, 1946) was an American novelist, poet, playwright, and art collector. Born in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, and raised in Oakland, California, Stein moved to Paris in 1903, and made France her home for the remainder of her life. She hosted a Paris salon, where the leading figures of modernism in literature and art, such as Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis, Ezra Pound, Sherwood Anderson and Henri Matisse, would meet. The following three recordings are from Stein's novel, The Making of Americans (1925), and her poems, How She Bowed to her Brother (1931) and If I Told Him - A Completed Portrait of Picasso (1923)

    Vogue magazine started, like so many great things do, in the spare room of someone's house. But unlike other such makeshift projects that flare up then fizzle away, Vogue burnt itself onto our cultural consciousness. 
     
     
     
    Today, 128 years later, Vogue spans twenty-two countries, has an international print readership upwards of twelve million, and nets over sixty-seven million monthly online users. Uncontested market leader for a century, it is one of the most recognizable brands in the world and a multi-million dollar money-making machine. It is not just a fashion magazine, it is the establishment. But what—and more importantly who—made Vogue such an enduring success? 
     
     
     
    Glossy will answer this question and more by tracing the previously untold history of the magazine, from its inception as a New York gossip rag, to the sleek, corporate behemoth we know now. This will be a biography of Vogue in every sense of the word, taking the listener through three centuries, two world wars, plunging failures, and blinding successes, as it charts the story of the magazine and those who ran it.

    The death of someone we hold dear may be inevitable; being paralyzed by our grief is not. Recent research has revealed our capacity for resilient grieving, our innate ability to respond to traumatic loss by finding ways to grow—by becoming more engaged with our lives, and discovering new, profound meaning. 
     
     
     
    In this completely updated and expanded second edition, author and resilience/well-being expert Lucy Hone, a pioneer in positive psychology and bereavement research, continues to push her field forward. In 2014, Lucy was faced with her own inescapable sorrow after her twelve-year-old daughter was killed in a car accident. By following the strategies of resilient grieving, she found a proactive way to move through her grief, and, over time, embrace life again. Since then, Lucy has become a leading voice in resilience and bereavement science, overturning widely held myths and misconceptions, making plain the harms of rigid models such as Kübler-Ross's five stages, and advocating for a more adaptive grieving process that emphasizes emotions, relationships, attention, forgiveness, and self-compassion.
