Sinossi

"Zulu Empire" explores the meteoric rise of the Zulu kingdom in Southern Africa under Shaka's rule, transforming a relatively small entity into a dominant force. Shaka's genius was not limited to military innovation, such as the highly disciplined regimental system; he also implemented crucial political and social reforms that fostered a strong collective identity. The book examines how these elements combined to enable the establishment and sustainment of Zulu dominance, challenging simplistic views of Shaka by presenting a nuanced analysis of his motivations and the consequences of his actions.

 
The book examines the pivotal shifts in Zulu warfare, governance, and societal structure, highlighting the political strategy and social restructuring that forged an empire. It analyzes the military revolution led by Shaka and the political and social innovations he implemented, including systems of governance and resource management. By drawing from oral traditions, early European accounts, and archaeological findings, the study presents essential historical context and examines pre-Shakan Zulu society.

 
Structured chronologically and thematically, the book begins by outlining the state of Southern Africa before Shaka, then transitions to his rise and military reforms. Subsequent chapters detail the consolidation of Zulu power and conclude by assessing the long-term impact of Shaka's reign and the legacy of the Zulu Empire. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the empire's growth, the resistance it faced, and its lasting impact on African history.

    A Lifetime Doing Nothing - Tales...

    This book is a compilation of teachings told in short stories about the author's attempts to undo the done. He offers this little book as a more ardent, and hopefully lucid, attempt to explain the paramount importance of doing nothing as a way to undo oneself. 
     
    ----------------------------- 
     
    "In my experience, all our problems do indeed stem from this hyperactive and delusional thinking we have acquired over time. 
     
    There is a way to eradicate the light-speed, blind reactions and the habitual confusion. The way is very simple. It boils down to just two words: do nothing. That s it. Do nothing. Sit quietly in a room alone and do nothing. Watch the monkey mind and do not try to fix it or eliminate it or drown it out or engage it. 
     
    This is doing non-doing. Observe the mind, on autopilot as usual, screaming editorial comments from the sidelines like some frenzied play-by-play announcer and do nothing about it. Don't turn the monologue into a dialogue. Do nothing. 'Nothing to see here, folks. Let s keep it moving.'"

    A vibrant and illuminating exploration of medieval thinking on women's beauty, sexuality, and behavior. 
     
     
     
    What makes for the ideal woman? How should she look, love, and be? In this high-spirited history, medievalist Eleanor Janega turns to the Middle Ages, the era that bridged the ancient world and modern society, to unfurl its suppositions about women and reveal what's shifted over time—and what hasn't. 
     
     
     
    Enshrined medieval thinkers, almost always male, subscribed to a blend of classical Greek and Roman philosophy and Christian theology for their concepts of the sexes. For the height of female attractiveness, they chose the mythical Helen of Troy, whose imagined pear shape, small breasts, and golden hair served as beauty's epitome. Casting Eve's shadow over medieval women, they derided them as oversexed sinners, inherently lustful, insatiable, and weak. And, unless a nun, a woman was to be the embodiment of perfect motherhood. 
     
     
     
    In The Once and Future Sex, Janega unravels the restricting expectations on medieval women and the ones on women today. She boldly questions why, if our ideas of women have changed drastically over time, we cannot reimagine them now to create a more equitable future.
