Sinopse

Grain Threshing Days explores how grain harvesting techniques profoundly shaped village life, revealing insights into social structures and community bonds. It examines the transition from manual methods, like using sickles, to mechanized harvesters, demonstrating how these shifts influenced labor relations and food security. The book argues that these techniques are not just agricultural practices but cultural ones that reflect and reinforce social, economic, and political dynamics within rural societies.

 
The book analyzes the social organization of harvesting, highlighting the roles of men and women and how cooperation fostered community identity. It also delves into the economic implications of different harvesting methods, detailing their impact on crop yields and wealth distribution. Drawing from agricultural manuals, census data, and oral histories, Grain Threshing Days adopts a narrative non-fiction approach to present a comprehensive account of grain harvesting's role in village life.

 
The book progresses by first introducing harvesting techniques, then exploring the social organization and economic implications, before finally investigating the influence of grain harvesting on social change. This progression provides a nuanced understanding of how agricultural practices have shaped rural communities and the broader social landscape.

    Speech at Clermont

    Pope Urban II, Robert the Monk

    In 1095, Pope Urban II delivered a powerful call-to-arms to begin the First Crusade. Robert the Monk, likely an eyewitness, recorded this speech years later, after the crusade had ended. In his account, Urban described horrific crimes committed against Christians living in the east, and Robert noted the emotional response of the gathered crowd. His account diverges widely from another eyewitness documentation of the same speech, written by Fulcher of Chartres, so most historians treat Robert’s version as a dramatization of history.

    Across the United States and around the world, there has been an ongoing resurgence in classical education, including among Catholics. The classical model, rooted in the ancient Socratic method, is flourishing, and classical Catholic schools continue to multiply and grow. But classical education also has its detractors. Some parents and teachers worry that it is impractical, outdated, or, worse, judgmental.       In Know Thyself, Andrew Youngblood, an educator with decades of experience in classical learning as both a student and teacher, introduces readers to this exciting education alternative and its intellectual and spiritual benefits. Youngblood defines the essence of classical Catholic education, explores its integrated and narrative approach to learning, and presents its transformative power and beauty.       Through brief vignettes, personal anecdotes from students and teachers, and examples from the classroom, Know Thyself makes a positive case for an education journey that teaches students to see themselves through God’s eyes—and to truly know themselves and who they are called to be.

    We Tell Ourselves Stories - Joan...

    In this riveting cultural biography, New York Times film critic Alissa Wilkinson examines Joan Didion's influence through the lens of American mythmaking. As a young girl, Didion was infatuated with John Wayne and his on-screen bravado, and was fascinated by her California pioneer ancestry and the infamous Donner Party. The mythos that preoccupied her early years continued to influence her work as a magazine writer and film critic in New York, offering glimmers of the many stories Didion told herself that would come to unravel over the course of her career. But out west, show business beckoned. 
     
     
     
    We Tell Ourselves Stories eloquently traces Didion's journey from New York to her arrival in Hollywood as a screenwriter at the twilight of the old studio system. She spent much of her adult life deeply embroiled in the glitz and glamour of the Los Angeles elite, where she acutely observed—and denounced—how the nation's fears and dreams were sensationalized on screen. Meanwhile, she paid the bills writing movie scripts like A Star Is Born, while her books propelled her to celestial heights of fame. 
     
     
     
    Peering through a scrim of celluloid, Wilkinson incisively dissects the cinematic motifs and machinations that informed Didion's writing—and how her writing, ultimately, demonstrated Hollywood's addictive grasp on the American imagination.
