Summary

The Legacy of Greece is a profound exploration of the philosophical, artistic, and political heritage of ancient Greece and its enduring influence on contemporary civilization. This anthology, comprised of essays and analyses by various scholars, encompasses a range of themes including the evolution of democratic ideals, the birth of tragedies and comedies, and the philosophical inquiries that continue to shape modern thought. With a scholarly yet accessible style, the contributors effectively contextualize the profound impacts of Greek legacy, intertwining historical narrative with literary critique, making it an essential read for both academics and general readers alike. The authors, distinguished voices in classical studies, share a common reverence for Greece's monumental contributions to the world. Their backgrounds in philosophy, literature, and history enrich the text, revealing how the ideas forged in ancient Greece resonate with contemporary issues. Their collective scholarship underscores a shared passion for elucidating the complexities and nuances of this rich cultural heritage, fostering a deeper understanding of how these early ideas inform present-day thought and governance. I wholeheartedly recommend The Legacy of Greece to anyone seeking to grasp the fundamental threads that connect ancient wisdom to modern existence. This compilation offers enlightening insights suitable for enthusiasts of history, philosophy, and literature, serving as both a scholarly resource and a reflective invitation to appreciate the roots of Western civilization.

    "The Elements of Style is an American English writing style guide in numerous editions. The original was written by William Strunk Jr. in 1918, and it was published by Harcourt in 1920, comprising eight "elementary rules of usage," ten "elementary principles of composition," "a few matters of form," a list of 49 "words and expressions commonly misused," and a list of 57 "words often misspelled." Strunk concentrated on the cultivation of good writing and composition; the original 1918 edition exhorted writers to "omit needless words," use the active voice, and employ parallelism appropriately."

    South End Syndicate - How I Took...

    In 2003, local Genovese family captain "Big Al" Bruno got shot five times with a .45 caliber handgun as he walked out of the Our Lady of Mount Carmel social club in Springfield, Massachusetts. Since Vito Genovese took his empire north from New York City, a string of mobsters dating back a hundred years have operated in the Greater Springfield area. With this migration came murders, mayhem, treachery, criminal trials, and constant corruption. 
 
 
 
Not until 2010 did authorities charge new Springfield Genovese boss Anthony "Bingy" Arillotta with Bruno's murder. At the time, Arillotta's connections spanned the Northeast—from the Patriarca family in Rhode Island to the Angiulos in Boston to the Gambinos and Bonannos in New York, and from Billy Grasso and Whitey Tropiano in New Haven to Whitey Bulger's Winter Hill Gang. During his seven-year reign, Arillotta had beautiful women, total power, and millions in cash. But it eventually came with a devastating price. 
 
 
 
South End Syndicate tells the untold story of a young man infatuated with Springfield wiseguys who rose from being a street criminal to becoming his city's Mafia boss. How did a young Italian-American kid from Springfield work his way up the chain to become a Made wiseguy in charge of Western New England? Arillotta, now a free man, tells a timeless tale of power, money, and murder.
