Beschreibung

Thomas Babington Macaulay's "The History of England" spans five volumes, presenting a comprehensive narrative that captures the complexities of English history from the Roman invasion to the Glorious Revolution. Macaulay's masterful prose blends scholarly rigor with a vivid storytelling style, utilizing rich descriptions and keen observations to engage readers while offering critical commentary on political, social, and cultural evolution. His work is notable not only for its narrative depth but also for its incisive reflections on the Whig interpretation of history, emphasizing progress and the gradual advancement of liberty and democracy. Macaulay, a prominent historian, poet, and politician of the 19th century, was influenced by Enlightenment ideals and his own Whig beliefs, leading him to write this ambitious history. His experiences in British politics and his dedication to public service informed his perspectives, as he aimed to not only document the past but also shape public understanding of national identity and governance. His literary career intertwines with his historical endeavors, marking him as a pivotal figure in Victorian literature and historiography. This monumental work is essential reading for anyone interested in the intricate tapestry of English history and its lasting impact on contemporary society. With its blend of scholarly insight and engaging narrative, Macaulay'Äôs "The History of England" remains an indispensable resource for historians, students, and anyone seeking to explore the foundations of modern Britain.

    Harriet Tubman, freedom fighter and leader in the Underground Railroad, is one of the most significant figures in US history. Her courage and determination in bringing enslaved people to freedom have established her as an icon of the abolitionist movement. But behind the history of the heroine called "Moses" was a woman of deep faith. 
     
     
     
    In Walking the Way of Harriet Tubman, Therese Taylor-Stinson introduces Harriet, a woman born into slavery whose unwavering faith and practices in spirituality and contemplation carried her through insufferable abuse and hardship to become a leader for her people. Her profound internal liberation came from deep roots in mysticism, Christianity, nature spirituality, and African Indigenous beliefs that empowered her own escape from enslavement—giving her the strength and purpose to lead others on the road to freedom. 
     
     
     
    Harriet's lived spirituality illuminates a profound path forward for those of us longing for internal freedom, as well as justice and equity in our communities. As people of color, we must cultivate our full selves for our own liberation and the liberation of our communities. As the luminous significance of Harriet Tubman's spiritual life is revealed, so too is the path to our own spiritual truth, advocacy, and racial justice as we follow in her footsteps.
