Sinopse

Mythic Deities explores the profound influence of ancient beliefs by journeys through diverse cultures' pantheons, examining the roles, powers, and enduring impact of gods and goddesses on human faith and societal structures. Understanding deity worship provides insight into the human search for meaning and purpose. One intriguing fact is that the powers attributed to various deities often reflect a culture's values and fears, illustrating how societies projected their ideals and anxieties onto these divine figures.

 
The book uniquely emphasizes the ethical implications of deity worship, demonstrating how ancient beliefs shaped moral codes and social norms. This exploration unfolds chapter by chapter, starting with fundamental concepts of mythology and theology and proceeding into specific pantheons like those of Ancient Greece, Egypt, and Norse traditions.

 
The book's approach involves supporting its information with archaeological findings, primary source analyses, and comparative studies. By connecting fields like history, anthropology, and psychology, Mythic Deities provides a comprehensive understanding of deities' multifaceted role in human culture.

    Being a novelist is a pretty sweet deal. You daydream, you type, and people pay you! There are possibly a few additional steps, but that’s why you need this book. It will walk you through the process of turning your imagination into polished, professional stories that people will pay to read. Make money doing what you really want to do: WRITE! James Maxey has more than twenty years of experience publishing novels through mainstream publishers and the indy press. He's taught numerous workshops, been a guest speaker at libraries and museums, and been honored as a Piedmont Laureate. He writes stuff and gets paid. You can too! 
    Samples: 
    "Little by little the writing gets done. A book emerges from the ether, to join its brethren in the great library of mankind. I am the author. Of all possible lives I might have chosen, this one feels right." 
    -- 
    "When I was working on my first novel, then my second, then my third, I kept thinking there would come a day when, finally, I’d have it all figured out. There’d be some novel writing process I could follow again and again that would allow me to write books with far less hassle and strain. Eventually I realized that hassle and strain are the process." 
    -- 
    "I almost hate to tell you about the false solution. Once you’re aware of it, you’ll never be able to read books or watch movies without this narrative slight-of-hand being obvious. From this point on, you’re a magician who knows how the woman gets sawed in half." 
    What critics are saying: 
    "Positive, solid advice offered in a breezy, useful way. It's going on my small shelf of writing books." — Gary Cohn 
    "A must read no matter where you are on the journey!" — Airian Eastman

    MTV Networks is the undisputed international music video gatekeeper, with stations from Australia to India, Russia to Brazil. Canada is one of the few countries to resist its global reach. Although the network has launched "MTV Canada" with an affiliate, that station limits its offerings primarily to talk shows and lifestyle programming. Many Canadians regard the Toronto-based MuchMusic as the nation's important domestic source of music videos—substantially different from, and superior to, American-based MTV. In her new study of the two music channels and their different cultures, Kip Pegley compares the musical and extra-musical content of MuchMusic and MTV, and examines how the stations construct their two distinct identities. Moving beyond analysis of individual videos, Pegley looks at the overall programming of each station, uncovers the well-hidden matrixes of power that dictate both which performers appear and what genres get the most airtime, and delves into how ideas of gender and race serve to "naturalize" distinct and complex nationalist ideologies. In so doing, she discovers why Canadians feel so protective of their music video station, and why they successfully have withstood the MTV invasion.

    For some of us, the family is a source of love and support. But for many others, the family is a place of private horror, coercion, and personal domination. In a capitalist society, the private family carries the impossible demands of interpersonal care and social reproductive labor. Can we imagine a different future? 
     
     
     
    In Family Abolition, author M. E. O'Brien uncovers the history of struggles to create radical alternatives to the private family. O'Brien traces the changing family politics of racial capitalism in the industrial cities of Europe and the slave plantations and settler frontier of North America, explaining the rise and fall of the housewife-based family form. From early Marxists to Black and queer insurrectionists to today's mass protest movements, O'Brien finds revolutionaries seeking better ways of loving, caring, and living. Family Abolition takes us through the past and present of family politics into a speculative future of the commune, imagining how care could be organized in a free society.
