Sinossi

In "The Abominations of Modern Society," T. De Witt Talmage presents a compelling critique of the societal issues plaguing the United States in the late 19th century. Through a blend of vivid imagery and impassioned rhetoric, Talmage addresses topics such as moral decay, the erosion of family values, and the creeping influence of materialism, encapsulating the anxieties of a rapidly industrializing world. His sermonic style, rich in metaphor and biblical allusion, invites readers to reflect on the spiritual ramifications of contemporary societal trends, situating his discourse within the broader context of the Social Gospel Movement, which sought to address social justice through a Christian lens. T. De Witt Talmage was a prominent Presbyterian minister and one of the most popular preachers of his time, known for his engaging speaking style and fervent commitment to moral reform. His experience as a pastor in various urban centers exposed him to the challenges faced by communities amidst rapid social change, directly influencing his desire to confront the moral dilemmas of his day. This personal connection to the struggles of modernity imbues his arguments with a sense of urgency and depth. Readers who seek to understand the moral landscape of post-Civil War America will find "The Abominations of Modern Society" an invaluable text. Talmage's incisive observations and passionate calls to action resonate powerfully in today's context, making it not only a historical document but also a poignant reminder of the continuing relevance of ethical discourse in society.

    The secrets, lies, and layers of deception about Diane Dewey’s origins were meant for her protection—but eventually, they imploded. Living with her family in suburban Philadelphia, Diane had grown up knowing she was born in Stuttgart and adopted at age one from an orphanage. She’d been told her biological parents were dead. Then, in 2002, when she was forty-seven years old, Diane got a letter from Switzerland: her biological father, Otto, wanted to bring her into his life. With that, her world shifted on its axis. 
    In the months that ensued, everybody had a different story to tell about Diane’s origins, including Otto when they met in New York City. She struggled to understand what was at stake with the lies. Like a private eye, she sifted through competing versions of the truth only to find that, having traveled throughout Europe and back, identity is a state of mind. As more information surfaced, the myths gave way to a certain elusive peace; Diane discovered a tribe in her mother’s family, found a Swiss husband, gained a voice, and, for the first time, began to trust in the intuition that had nudged her all along. One-part forensic investigation, one-part self-discovery, Fixing the Fates  is a story about seeing behind artifice and living one’s truth.

    Testing Education - A Teacher's...

    Since the 2002 implementation of No Child Left Behind, the American public education system has been fundamentally changed. Excessive testing, standardized curriculums, destructive demands on children, corporate-­style evaluations, and top-­down mandates have become the norm. In response, record numbers of demoralized educators have quit, and millions of students have been left educationally impoverished. This troubling transformation has been exhaustively critiqued by scholars and commentators. Yet one crucial voice has been missing. 
     
     
     
    In Testing Education, Kathy Greeley recounts the impact of education reform from a teacher's point of view. Based on a teaching career ranging nearly forty years, Greeley details how schools went from learning communities infused with excitement, intellectual stimulation, and joy to sterile spaces of stress, intimidation, and fear. In this ultimately hopeful memoir, Greeley asks us to learn from the past to reimagine the future of public education.
