Summary

In "The Provinces of the Roman Empire," Theodor Mommsen delivers a comprehensive examination of the administrative and cultural landscapes of Rome's provinces from their conquests to the decline of the empire. Employing a meticulous narrative style enriched by vivid descriptions and insightful analyses, Mommsen situates the provinces within the broader context of Roman history, highlighting their diverse contributions to Roman civilization. This work is distinguished by its scholarly rigor, as well as its accessibility to a wider audience, making it an essential reference for both historians and general readers interested in the complexities of Roman provincial life. Theodor Mommsen, a distinguished historian and Nobel laureate, was deeply influenced by the tumultuous political landscape of 19th-century Germany, which compelled him to explore themes of governance and societal structure. His extensive knowledge of classical sources, coupled with his passion for understanding the intricacies of Roman administration, uniquely positioned him to undertake this monumental study. Mommsen's background as a legal scholar and his engagement with contemporary political thought profoundly shaped his perspective, allowing him to analyze the provinces not merely as peripheries but as vital components of the imperial narrative. "The Provinces of the Roman Empire" is a seminal work that captivates and informs. It invites readers to explore the rich tapestry of Roman provincial life, making it an indispensable addition to any scholar's library or enthusiast's bookshelf. Whether you are a seasoned historian or new to the subject, Mommsen's analysis will expand your understanding of the Roman Empire's enduring legacy.

    Chrysalis - Maria Sibylla Merian...

    Before Darwin, before Audubon, there was Maria Sibylla Merian. 
An artist turned naturalist, Merian was born just 16 years after Galileo proclaimed that the Earth orbited the sun. But at the age of 50, she sailed from Europe to South America on a solo scientific expedition to study insect metamorphosis—an unheard-of journey for any naturalist at that time, much less a woman. 
When she returned, she produced a book that secured her reputation, only to have it savaged in the 19th century by scientists who disdained the work of “amateurs.” 
Chrysalis takes us from golden age Amsterdam to the Surinam tropics to modern laboratories where Merian’s insights fuel a new branch of biology. The New Yorker called it a "spellbinding biography." In it, Kim Todd brings to life a 17th century woman whose boldness and vision would still be exceptional today.

    We Become What We Normalize -...

    From one of the most respected thinkers and public intellectuals of our day comes a book that is both a cultural critique of the state of our country and a robust summons to resist complicity. As we move through the world, we constantly weigh our conscience against what David Dark calls "deferential fear"—going along just to get along, especially in relation to our cultural, political, and religious conversations. Dark reveals our compromised reality: the host of hidden structures and tacit social arrangements that draw us away from ourselves and threaten to turn us slowly into what we decry in others. 
 
 
 
We Become What We Normalize counsels a creative, slow, and artful response to the economy of reaction, hurry, shaming, and fearmongering. Dark offers a deep analysis of the ways our conceptions of ourselves and our use of technology often lead us away from what we believe, reinforcing the false narrative that we must humiliate others in order to survive. "I suspect we become what we sit still for, what we play along with, and what we abide in our attempts to access more perceived power and more alleged influence," Dark writes. We Become What We Normalize calls for a new kind of struggle, ethic, witness, and spirit that helps us step away from the infinite loop of normalizing harm into effecting true change for ourselves and the worlds we inhabit.

    Criminal Fraud and Election...

    Deliberate mischaracterization of political opponents and their policies has always been a part of politics; however, lying, dishonesty, and distortion of the facts remain morally wrong and have the potential to obstruct important political interests. For example, a false or misleading claim publicized about an election candidate may lead someone to lose an election that they might otherwise have won. So, does—and should—the law seek to provide protection from the risk of this happening? 
 
 
 
In attempting to answer this question, Jeremy Horder draws a key distinction between what is called "political viewpoint" fraud and "electoral participation" fraud. In the interests of protecting freedom of speech, false or misleading claims (disinformation) involving political viewpoint content should be tolerated, not only by the criminal law but also by the internet platforms which host political content. By contrast, in the interests of preserving the integrity of democratic electoral processes, disinformation involving electoral participation information should be prohibited by the criminal law and censored by internet platforms. This book explains how the criminal law in various jurisdictions frequently prohibits false or misleading political claims falling into both categories of disinformation, instead of concentrating on electoral participation fraud.
