Beschreibung

In "Responsibilities, and Other Poems," W. B. Yeats explores themes of love, nationalism, and the passage of time through a modernist lens, utilizing a blend of traditional and free verse. This collection, published in 1914, emerges from Yeats's keen engagement with the socio-political landscape of Ireland, reflecting his desire to reconcile personal experience with the broader struggles of his nation. The poems are marked by a rich symbolic language and a profound exploration of the dualities of human existence, encapsulating both the beauty and the burden of responsibility in a changing world. W. B. Yeats, a pivotal figure in 20th-century literature, was deeply influenced by his Irish heritage, his involvement in the Irish nationalist movement, and his fascination with mysticism and the occult. His commitment to exploring the complexities of human emotion and societal obligation fueled his poetic journey in this collection. Yeats's personal struggles with identity, love, and the profound impact of historical events provide a critical backdrop to the rich emotional landscape of his work. This collection is a must-read for those who seek to understand the intertwining of personal and national identity through the lens of poetic expression. Yeats's mastery of language and ability to articulate the human condition make "Responsibilities, and Other Poems" a profound reflection on the essence of being human, inviting readers to contemplate their own responsibilities in the ever-unfolding narrative of life.

Balm for our troubled times, his tributes to visionaries and leaders quickly went viral and became a social media sensation. Now, in this remarkable collection, Green brings together many of these popular odes with never-before-seen works.  
    A timely celebration of contemporary Black figures who are making history and shaping our culture today, Black Roses is divided into five sections—advocates, curators, innovators, luminaries, trailblazers—reflecting the diversity of Black women’s achievements and the depth of their reach. These inspiring changemakers are leaving their mark on the world by creating new beauty in their respective art forms, heading movements, fighting for equality and to change the status quo, and championing new definitions of what’s possible in every meaningful way. Green lifts them up to create meaningful connections between these figures and our own lives and experiences.

    Meticulously documented and researched, based on facts LEGACY OF TERROR – AUSCHWITZ SEX SLAVE tells the story of 33-year-old beauty Eliza who goes from con artist on the French Riviera to soul-searching survivor in the bowels of the Nazi-created hell on earth, Auschwitz. This is a saga never before told in literature or feature films. 
    Eliza’s Auschwitz journal becomes a must read for a German woman – Anna, who’s on a mission for her son Wolfgang shortly after 1967’s 6-Day War in Israel. Anna hopes to clear him of accusations of being a war criminal while performing his duty as an SS officer during WWII. 
    Containing elements of a thriller, a petrifying war saga and an unconventional romance, this heart-searing novel evolves into a tapestry of brokenheartedness, self-reproach, and perhaps resilience and stalwart acceptance. What must these women do to keep their humanity intact? Its intended audience is any historical fiction lover who wishes to delve deep into the psyches of those who are able to survive this unimaginable hell at all costs.
