  Women of Ancient Egypt -...

  The role of women in Ancient Egyptian society was multifaceted, reflecting the complex and dynamic culture of this ancient civilization. Women in Egypt held a relatively high status compared to their counterparts in many other ancient cultures. They were considered equal to men in certain aspects, such as the ability to own property, initiate divorce, and partake in religious rituals. Women were also key figures in the household, and their roles in family and social structures were crucial for the stability and prosperity of Egyptian society. 
  One of the most notable aspects of the role of women in Ancient Egypt was their legal rights. Egyptian women had the legal ability to own land, businesses, and wealth, which provided them with a level of autonomy not commonly found in other ancient societies. This was particularly significant in a culture where family wealth and land were vital to survival and success. In cases of divorce or widowhood, women could retain ownership of their property, and were often entitled to a share of the family’s wealth. Women could also inherit property from their parents, and daughters were not excluded from inheritance as they often were in other cultures. 
  In the social realm, women had significant responsibilities within the family unit. They were primarily responsible for managing household duties, including the care of children, food preparation, and the overall maintenance of the home. These tasks, while often perceived as domestic, were essential to the functioning of society. Women also played important roles as mothers and caregivers, which was highly valued in Egyptian culture. The ideal woman in Egypt was often depicted as a loving and devoted mother, and this image was reflected in religious texts, art, and literature.

  Executions of British and French...

  Over 450 years after his reign, Henry VIII is still the most famous and recognizable King of England, but it’s for all the wrong reasons. Though well regarded by contemporaries as a learned King and "one of the most charismatic rulers to sit on the English throne", he is best remembered today for his gluttony and multiple marriages, particularly the gruesome way in which he was widowed on more than one occasion. Naturally, that was the focus of the popular ShowTime drama series centered around his life, The Tudors.  
  	While Henry’s reign is not considered as favorably as his daughter’s, Queen Elizabeth I would ultimately sentence a queen to death herself. Mary, Queen of Scots’ fame as a monarch lies less in her personality or achievements than in her position within the dynastic maneuvers and political-religious upheavals taking place in northwest Europe in the 16th century. Most monarchs spend their early years learning in preparation to rule and then spend the latter part of their lives wielding power and status, but Mary was thrust upon the throne when she was only a week old, and she ceased to be queen nearly 20 years before her death. 
  	With French society in open revolt by the late 1780s, the King appeared indecisive at a number of crucial moments, including during a famous attempted escape that was thwarted at Vergennes, and he had to literally run for his life when a mob stormed the royal palace at Tuileries. Soon after, he was stripped of his dignity and his royal name, convicted of high treason in a sham trial as Citizen Louis Capet. Ironically, in death, some historians have asserted that his execution and the sympathy it engendered helped bring about the Restoration a generation later.  
  	Nearly 220 years after she was put to the guillotine, Marie Antoinette is more famous than ever, fairly or unfairly coming to epitomize royalty and everything that was wrong with it.

  The Book of Grief and Hamburgers

  A poignant meditation on mortality from a beloved Canadian poet
  		 
  A writer friend once pointed out that whenever Stuart Ross got close to something heavy and “real” in a poem, a hamburger would inevitably appear for comic relief. In this hybrid essay/memoir/poetic meditation, Ross shoves aside the heaping plate of burgers to wrestle with what it means to grieve the people one loves and what it means to go on living in the face of an enormous accumulation of loss. Written during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, shortly after the sudden death of his brother left him the last living member of his family and as a catastrophic diagnosis meant anticipating the death of his closest friend, this meditation on mortality — a kind of literary shiva — is Ross’s most personal book to date. More than a catalogue of losses, The Book of Grief and Hamburgers is a moving act of resistance against self-annihilation and a desperate attempt to embrace all that was good in his relationships with those most dear to him.

  Vedic Hymns

  The Vedic Hymns are among the most interesting portions of Hindoo literature. In form and spirit they resemble both the poems of the Hebrew psalter and the lyrics of Pindar. They deal with the most elemental religious conceptions and are full of the imagery of nature. It would be absurd to deny to very many of them the possession of the truest poetic inspiration. The scenery of the Himalayas, ice and snow, storm and tempest, lend their majesty to the strains of the Vedic poet. He describes the storm sweeping over the white-crested mountains till the earth, like a hoary king, trembles with fear.
