Summary

Poetic Language explores the art of poetry by examining the functional roles of metaphor, simile, and diction. The book argues that these elements are not mere decorations but crucial tools that poets use to construct meaning and evoke emotion. It investigates how the deliberate manipulation of these devices creates symbolic resonance, profoundly impacting the reader's experience. One intriguing fact is how societal shifts have influenced the application and interpretation of these techniques over time. 

 
The book takes a systematic approach, beginning with an introduction to core concepts and their theoretical underpinnings. Subsequent chapters analyze each element individually, providing detailed examples from various poetic works. It then explores the relationships between these elements and other poetic devices. Concluding chapters examine contemporary applications and offer guidance on analyzing and interpreting poetry.

 
This unique perspective encourages readers to move beyond surface-level interpretations and engage with the deeper layers of poetic expression, making it valuable for students of literature, aspiring poets, and anyone seeking a deeper appreciation of poetry.

    First published in 1895, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind remains one of the most influential works on mass psychology and the behavior of crowds. Gustave Le Bon’s groundbreaking analysis explores how individuals, when part of a crowd, surrender their rationality and adopt a collective mindset driven by emotion, impulse, and unconscious influence. 
    Le Bon’s insights have shaped the fields of psychology, sociology, and political science, influencing figures from Freud to modern strategists of propaganda and mass persuasion. He dissects how crowds think, how they are swayed by leaders, and how collective behavior can lead to both progress and destruction.Key Topics Covered: 
    ✔️ How individuals lose autonomy within crowds 
    ✔️ The psychological mechanisms behind mass movements 
    ✔️ The power of suggestion and emotional contagion 
    ✔️ How leaders manipulate crowds to achieve their goals 
    ✔️ The role of crowd psychology in revolutions, politics, and social change 
    A must-listen for those interested in history, social psychology, politics, and the forces that shape public opinion.

    The Sasanian Empire was important for a number of reasons. Besides being the last of three great Persian dynasties, they carried on many Persian cultural traditions relating to religion and kingship. The Sasanians fostered and promoted the native religion of Zoroastrianism to the point of persecuting other religions from time to time. It was during the Sasanian period that the numerous Zoroastrian hymns, prayers, and rituals were collected under one book, known as the Avesta.  
    	Thanks to the Sasanians’ efforts with regard to religion, modern scholars know much more about Zoroastrianism than they would have if the religion continued to disseminate orally. Their efforts also protected Zoroastrian knowledge in later years after the dynasty was long gone and Islam became ascendant in Persia. Zoroastrianism is technically still a living religion today, but the religion is mysterious and not widely known among those who don’t study it, and historians themselves are divided over when the religion’s prophet lived and when the religion was officially adopted in Persia. Zoroastrianism’s historical development has also failed to intrigue significant numbers of people, perhaps due to its geographical location and cultural background. Zoroastrianism developed among the Persian people, who have traditionally not been part of the standard Western, early Islamic, or Far Eastern cultural groupings, and when Persia later became part of the greater Islamic world, it was to the detriment of Zoroastrianism. Finally, Zoroastrianism is a “closed” religion, which has also kept it shrouded in mystery to a certain degree. Although contemporary Zoroastrians are quite open about their faith and willing to help non-Zoroastrian scholars, converts are rarely accepted by the faithful, adding a sense of insularity to the faith.

    What makes sex magnificent? What are the qualities of extraordinary erotic intimacy and what are the elements that help to bring it about? Is great sex the stuff that people remember nostalgically from the "honeymoon" phase of their relationships, or can sex improve over time? 
     
     
      
    Magnificent Sex is based on the largest, in-depth interview study ever conducted with people who are having extraordinary sex. It gathers the nuggets for remarkable sex from the "experts," distilling them into an attainable blueprint for ordinary lovers who want to make erotic intimacy grow over the course of a lifetime. Looking at factors including individual and relational qualities, empathic communication, and the myths and realities of magnificent sex, this book offers accessible and evidence-based guidance for lovers and therapists alike. It is replete with frank and often humorous interviews with straight and LGBTQ individuals and couples, those who are "vanilla" and "kinky," monogamous and consensually non-monogamous and healthy and chronically ill. This illuminating book explores the implications of the findings to develop a model that effectively tackles the common problems of low desire and frequency. The "cure" for low desire is to create desirable sex! 
     
      
     
    Contains mature themes.

    This book contains these two titles: 
    Exploitation - Economic inequality has become one of the defining challenges of our era, shaping the trajectory of societies across the globe. The income gap between the wealthiest and the poorest continues to widen, creating a stark divide that influences not only financial security but also access to education, healthcare, and opportunities. This growing disparity raises questions about the fairness of our systems and the sustainability of our futures. The roots of inequality are complex, intertwining historical legacies with contemporary policies and practices. In many nations, the transition from agrarian economies to industrialized and globalized markets created unprecedented wealth. However, this wealth was not evenly distributed. The rise of capitalism, technological advancements, and shifts in labor dynamics often concentrated power and resources in the hands of a few, leaving vast populations struggling to make ends meet.  
    War Crimes - The need for accountability in the face of war crimes is critical. It is not only about bringing perpetrators to justice but also about establishing a global standard that deters such crimes in the future. The introduction of international laws and institutions aimed at prosecuting war crimes marks a pivotal shift in the international community's approach to warfare. The atrocities committed during World War II, particularly the Holocaust and other acts of genocide, were a wake-up call for the global community. This led to the creation of the Nuremberg Trials, the first real attempt to hold individuals accountable for war crimes, and set the foundation for modern international law.
