Synopsis

In the UK, around one in six men will experience some form of sexual violence. Many of these men who experience sexual abuse are dismissed, only brought up as the butt of a joke, an exception to the rule or, perhaps at worst, are used as a rhetorical tool against female victims.
Conversations on sexual violence have understandably focused on women's voices and experiences, with data indicating that women are still the majority of victims and not enough is being done to prevent this violence. As most perpetrators of this violence against women are men, it becomes almost easy to mistake that male survivors stories are exceptions or irrelevances. The fact is that we share a world and our experiences are closely interwoven.
Sons and Others challenges misconceptions and misrepresentations of sexual violence against men across media and society and offers a new way of seeing and understanding these men in our lives, asking how the violence they experience affects us all.

    Did you know that Lusius Quietus, for whom the Kitos War was named, was one of only a few African commanders to attain the rank of senator for his services in the Roman army? 
    Lusius Quietus was the military commander responsible for helping quell one of the biggest rebellions in Roman history. The conflict was named the Kitos War, but how much do we know about it? 
    The topic itself, much like other major Jewish revolts against Rome, is difficult to discuss due to the scarcity of historical evidence. But in this handy tome, you’ll learn some of the basics of the Kitos War. We have included facts and hypotheses constructed from available historical data found in scrolls, inscriptions, statues, and archaeological findings. 
    In this audiobook, you’ll learn the potential true nature of the conflict, one of the few rebellions that sprawled across three continents and still had the character of a nationalistic, populist revolution, a rarity in the ancient world. You will also see both the Jews and the Romans in a new light. 
    Aside from that, you’ll also learn the answers to the following questions:What were some of the short-term and long-term causes of the revolt?What were the relations between Jews and other people groups in both Judea and the Diaspora?How did the Romans treat the Jews?How did events from the First Jewish Revolt possibly affect the anti-Roman sentiment among the Jews?Was the revolt a result of a coordinated attack or simply a string of multiple coinciding rebellions?Did Emperors Trajan and Hadrian play a major role in the Jewish revolts?What was the economic impact of the fighting?How did the outcome of the war affect the surviving Jews in the empire?And so much more!

    The most seminal event of the last millennium might also be its most controversial. As schoolchildren have been taught for over 500 years, “In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue.” In October of that year, the Italian Christopher Columbus immortalized himself by landing in the New World and beginning the process of European settlement in the Americas for Spain, bringing the Age of Exploration to a new hemisphere with him. Ironically, the Italian had led a Spanish expedition, in part because the Portugese rejected his offers in the belief that sailing west to Asia would take too long. 
    If Columbus and Cortés were the pioneers of Spain’s new global empire, Pizarro consolidated its immense power and riches, and his successes inspired a further generation to expand Spain’s dominions to unheard of dimensions. Furthermore, he participated in the forging of a new culture: like Cortés, he took an indigenous mistress with whom he had two mixed-race children, and yet the woman has none of the lasting fame of Cortés’s Doña Marina. With all of this in mind, it is again remarkable that Pizarro remains one of the less well-known and less written about of the explorers of his age. 
    Today Ferdinand Magellan is remembered as the first man to circumnavigate the globe, an ironic legacy given that he died half a world away from completing that journey. But though it ended catastrophically for Magellan and most of his crew, his expedition accomplished its objective, and in economic terms, the opening up of new trade routes with Asia was a more significant development than the conquest of the Americas for the Europeans of the early 16th century.
