Traduttore John Clark

Casa editrice: DigiCat

Sinossi

In "De re militari," Vegetius offers a comprehensive examination of military strategy and tactics, presenting a detailed guide for Roman military practices that resonates through the ages. Written in a clear and systematic style, the treatise emphasizes the importance of discipline, training, and the moral character of soldiers. Vegetius deftly amalgamates historical examples with poignant insights, reflecting the military climate of late antiquity, when the Roman Empire faced increasing external pressures. His work not only serves as a manual for commanders but also highlights the ideological underpinnings of military strength, linking preparedness with the stability of the state. Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus, a Roman author typically associated with the late 4th century AD, lived during a time of transformation for the Roman military. His background and experiences within a crumbling empire may have influenced his desire to compile and reformulate military wisdom for both contemporary and future audiences. Vegetius's unique perspective, advocating for a return to discipline and classical virtues amid decline, reflects his concern for the Roman state, embedding his work in the historical context of military reform. "De re militari" is essential reading for historians, military scholars, and anyone interested in the evolution of military thought. Vegetius's insights remain relevant, providing not only a glimpse into the tactical frameworks of Rome but also timeless lessons in leadership and governance. This book will enhance your appreciation of military practices and their historical significance.

We the Elites - Why the US...

Robert Ovetz

Written by fifty-five of the richest white men, and signed by only thirty-nine of them, the US constitution is the sacred text of American nationalism. Popular perceptions of it are mired in idolatry, myth, and misinformation—many Americans have opinions on the constitution but have little idea what it says. This book examines the constitution for what it is—a rule book for elites to protect capitalism from democracy. Social movements have misplaced faith in the constitution as a tool for achieving justice when it actually impedes social change through the many roadblocks and obstructions we call 'checks and balances'. This stymies urgent progress on issues like labor rights, poverty, public health, and climate change, propelling the American people and rest of the world towards destruction. Robert Ovetz's reading of the constitution shows that the system isn't broken. Far from it. It works as it was designed to.

Ghosts That I Have Known - 80...

David D. Ferman

Dave Ferman is a former high school English and science teacher, and a communications executive in the world's largest defense corporation. In 1956, he completed a tour as a U.S. Marine Grunt, a drill instructor, a military policeman, and a pilot. He also served in Sixth Fleet Air Intelligence with a clandestine atom bomber squadron in the Mediterranean Theatre, and on the West Bank and volatile "Green Line" between Israel and the Kingdom of Jordan. Along the way, he earned a succession of hard-to-get, easy-to-lose top U.S. security clearances that make him among the most highly vetted rookie authors in literature today. Uncle Sam trusts Dave Ferman. 
 While growing up in urban Kansas during the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, World War II and the birth of Rock 'n' Roll, Dave had several unrelated but pleasant paranormal experiences. Curious and wishing for encores at age five, in denial at age 10, and comfortably nonjudgemental until age 44 when his deceased father visited Dave one evening during a period of extreme financial stress to assure him: “Don’t worry, son. Everything is going to be alright.“ and very soon it was. After that, Dave became a converted believer in some form of life after death. What other choices did he have? 
Dave’s message is twofold: “Don’t despair, if all goes well, you and your departed loved ones will be reunited in the hereafter,“ and “I am no longer afraid to die; and you should not be, either.“
