Synopsis

Canon Shifts explores the dynamic nature of literary canons, revealing how these collections of esteemed works are shaped by cultural values and power dynamics rather than existing as timeless, objective truths. The book highlights how social justice movements have propelled shifts in canon formation, advocating for greater inclusion and representation of marginalized voices in literature. Notably, the text analyzes the historical construction of canons, demonstrating how social, political, and economic factors influence which works achieve canonical status. The study offers a unique blend of historical analysis, critical theory, and practical pedagogical strategies, providing educators with actionable guidance for creating inclusive learning environments. Beginning with an introduction to core concepts, the book progresses through detailed case studies, such as the rise of postcolonial literature, before culminating in strategies for educators to foster critically engaged classrooms. By integrating literary criticism, historical archives, and educational research, Canon Shifts provides a comprehensive understanding of the forces reshaping our literary landscape.

  • Totemism Tattoo and Fetishism as Forms of Sign Language - Ancient Egypt the Light of the World Book 2 - cover

    So ancient was Totemism in Egypt that the Totems of the human Mothers had become the signs of Goddesses, in whom the head of the beast was blended with the figure of the human female. The Totems of the human Mothers had attained the highest status as Totems of a Motherhood that was held to be divine, the Motherhood in Nature which was elemental in its origin. –from “Totemism, Tattoo and Fetishism as Forms of Sign Language” It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a “hidden history” of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey’s massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World–first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar–redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs. Here, Cosimo proudly presents Book 2 of Ancient Egypt, in which Massey reads the prehistoric story of human civilization that can be studied in the language of ceremonial rites, ancient customs, and ritual dance, and consequently explores the resultant concept that religion evolved out of expressions of human fertility and sexuality–particularly as embodied in the primeval symbols of blood, sacrifice, and motherhood–and formed the first influences on Judeo-Christianity. Peculiar and profound, this work will intrigue and delight readers of history, religion, and mythology. British author GERALD MASSEY (1828-1907) published works of poetry, spiritualism, Shakespearean criticism, and theology, but his best-known works are in the realm of Egyptology, including A Book of the Beginnings and The Natural Genesis.

    Education is often considered the most important tool for personal success and societal progress, promising to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the complexities of life. It is believed to be the key to opportunity, growth, and empowerment. Yet, when we take a closer look at the state of modern education, we find a different reality—a system that is increasingly failing to meet the needs of today’s learners and society as a whole. Behind the promise of a well-rounded, enriching education lies a structure that often stifles creativity, disregards individuality, and fails to prepare students for the rapidly changing world around them. 
      
    At its core, the modern education system is built on an outdated framework that prioritizes uniformity and standardization over adaptability and critical thinking. The methods used to educate students today were designed in the industrial era, when the focus was on producing workers for factories rather than nurturing creative thinkers, innovators, and problem-solvers. While the world has evolved in countless ways since then—especially with the rise of technology and globalization—the classroom has remained largely unchanged. The result is a system that no longer serves the needs of diverse learners and, in many cases, actively hinders their potential. 
      
    This book aims to explore the hidden truths about modern education, shedding light on the deep-rooted issues that have long been overlooked or ignored. From the rise of standardized testing to the growing influence of corporate interests, we will examine how these forces have reshaped education into something that prioritizes compliance and efficiency over genuine learning and personal growth.

    A new edition of the most important free speech book of the past half-century, with a new chapter by the author on some of the top First Amendment controversies of today 
    When Nazis wanted to express their right to free speech in 1977 by marching through Skokie, Illinois—a town with a large population of Holocaust survivors—Aryeh Neier, then the national executive director of the ACLU and himself a Holocaust survivor, came to the Nazis' defense. Explaining what many saw as a despicable bridge too far for the First Amendment, Neier spelled out his thoughts about free speech in his 1979 book Defending My Enemy. 
     
    Nearly fifty years later, Neier revisits the topic of free speech in a volume that includes his original essay along with a new chapter addressing present-day First Amendment battles, including the Charlottesville march, book bans, the heckler's veto, attacks on free speech on college campuses, and the threat to overturn the US Supreme Court decision in The New York Times v. Sullivan. Including a foreword by Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton and an afterword by longtime free speech champion Nadine Strossen, Defending My Enemy offers razor-sharp analysis from the man Jameel Jaffer of the Knight First Amendment Institute describes as "an icon of justice and fearlessness."
