  Roman Legions - The Military...

  The Roman legions were the backbone of one of the most formidable military forces in history. Before the rise of the professional army, Rome’s early military structure was largely based on citizen soldiers who fought in times of need. This early system was influenced by both the Etruscans and the Greeks, shaping the foundation of what would become the highly disciplined and organized Roman legions. Over time, reforms, particularly those of Gaius Marius, transformed the Roman military into a professional and highly efficient force that would dominate the ancient world. 
  In the early days of Rome, military service was tied to land ownership. The army was made up of citizen militias, with each man providing his own weapons and armor. This system was similar to that of the Greek hoplites, where soldiers fought in close formations with shields and spears. However, as Rome expanded, it became clear that a more structured and permanent military force was needed. The influence of the Etruscans introduced elements of hierarchy and organization, while the Greeks contributed to Rome’s use of phalanx-style formations in battle. Despite these early influences, the Roman army continued to evolve, adapting to new threats and challenges. 
  The real transformation of the Roman military came during the late Republic, when Gaius Marius introduced the Marian Reforms. These changes allowed for the recruitment of landless citizens, shifting the army from a temporary force to a standing professional military. Soldiers were now equipped by the state, ensuring uniformity in weapons and armor. The structure of the army was also refined, replacing the older phalanx formations with the more flexible manipular and cohort systems. This allowed for greater maneuverability on the battlefield, giving the Romans a significant advantage over their enemies.

  On the Future of Our Educational...

  Friedrich Nietzsche

  • 0

  In 1869, at the age of twenty-five, the precociously brilliant Friedrich Nietzsche was appointed to a professorship of classical philology at the University of Basel. He seemed marked for a successful and conventional academic career. Then the philosophy of Schopenhauer and the music of Wagner transformed his sense of purpose. The genius of such thinkers and makers—like the genius of the ancient Greeks—was the only touchstone for true understanding. How then was education to answer to such genius? Something more than sturdy scholarship was called for. A new way of teaching and questioning, a new philosophy...What that new way might be was the question Nietzsche broached in five vivid, popular public lectures in Basel in 1872. Composed in emulation (and to some degree as a satire) of a Platonic dialogue, Anti-Education presents a provocative and timely reckoning with what remains one of the great problems of modern societies.

  The Hijacking of American Flight...

  He pulled off what some deem the crime of the century: skyjacking a commercial jetliner, collecting a ransom of $200,000, parachuting off the aft stairs of the Boeing 727 into the night, and simply disappearing. Since November 1971, “D. B. Cooper”—no one knows his real name or identity—has become a figure of enduring fascination and obsession. The FBI pursued him for over forty years, before closing the case and leaving it unsolved.  
   
  Unsolved, perhaps, but much admired. D. B. Cooper’s exploit over the skies of the American Northwest has inspired books, films, and endless speculation. What’s less known is that it inspired imitators. None were more daring than the hijacker of American Flight 119. After commandeering the flight from St. Louis with a machine gun and collecting $502,500 in ransom, he parachuted out over Indiana. Unlike Cooper, he was tracked down. 
   
  In The Hijacking of American Flight 119, John Wigger explores the wave of hijackings that swept over commercial flights between 1961 and 1972. One hijacker ran across the ramp in Reno, Nevada, with a pillowcase over his head, gun in hand, to seize a United Airlines flight.  
   
  Another collected a large ransom in Washington, D.C., before jumping over Honduras. Yet another rode a bicycle across the tarmac with a rifle strapped to the handlebars.  
   
  Motivations involved an admixture of ideology, greed, derring-do, and a desperate need to be noticed. What they had in common was that their exploits transfixed the nation’s attention, bringing about a transformation in airline security that remains with us still.  
   
  With its focus on the parachute hijackers, Wigger’s book gathers together the stories of this period of daring criminality and recounts them in gripping fashion, showing their effect on the public, the media, and law enforcement. Using never-before-published interviews and first-hand accounts, he brings to life one of the most chaotic and fascinating periods in American aviation history.
