Beschreibung

History of Plymouth Plantation is regarded as the most authoritative and authentic account of the Pilgrims and the early years of the colony they founded. Written between 1630 and 1651, the journal describes the story of the Pilgrims from 1608, when they settled in the Dutch Republic on the European mainland, through the 1620 Mayflower voyage to the New World, until 1647. The book ends with a list, written in 1651, of Mayflower passengers and their whereabouts.  William Bradford (1590-1657) was an English Separatist, one of the signatories to the Mayflower Compact and the second Governor of the Plymouth Colony.

    The Black Death, one of the most devastating pandemics in human history, left an indelible mark on the medieval world. From the mid-14th century, this catastrophic event wiped out an estimated one-third of Europe's population, with ramifications extending far beyond the immediate loss of life. Its legacy endures, not only in historical accounts but also in the cultural, social, and economic transformations it triggered. 
      
    The pandemic’s unparalleled scale of mortality created a sense of collective trauma that shaped the mindset of medieval society. Fear, uncertainty, and grief were pervasive, leading to widespread shifts in religious devotion and philosophical thought. For some, the plague strengthened their faith, prompting public acts of penance and increased church attendance. For others, it inspired skepticism about religious authority, paving the way for future reforms and dissent. This dual response reflects the Black Death's role as both a destroyer of tradition and a catalyst for change. 
      
    Economically, the pandemic dramatically altered the medieval labor market. The decimation of the population led to acute labor shortages, forcing landowners to offer better wages and conditions to retain workers. This shift empowered peasants and contributed to the gradual erosion of the feudal system, giving rise to a nascent middle class. The newfound leverage of laborers sowed the seeds of social mobility, challenging the rigid hierarchies that had long defined medieval life.

    Do you find yourself constantly struggling with a racing mind, unable to focus on one task at a time? Are you plagued by anxiety and find yourself obsessing over certain activities, even if they lead to exhaustion? 
    If so, you may be one of the many women living with ADHD. 
    Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, is a condition that affects millions of people around the world, and yet, it is often misunderstood and underdiagnosed in women. Despite being diagnosed and treated more often in men, ADHD affects women just as much, if not more. Unfortunately, there is a lack of information and research on ADHD in women, leading to a lack of understanding and support. 
    One of the biggest challenges for women with ADHD is getting diagnosed. Unlike boys, girls are more inconspicuous and less likely to have poor school performance, which is often the first red flag for ADHD. Additionally, girls are more likely than boys to have the predominantly inattentive type without hyperactivity and fewer behavior problems in clinical practice. As a result, many women come to know their ADHD when their children are diagnosed. 
    This book is an essential guide for women who suspect they have ADHD, as well as for their loved ones. We provide information on how to recognize the symptoms, how to seek professional help and how to take control of your life. We also discuss the importance of self-care, how to manage the disorder, and how to advocate for yourself in the medical and educational systems. 
    Don't let ADHD control your life any longer. Learn how to take control and find the support you deserve with this informative and empowering audiobook. With the right knowledge, tools, and support, you can learn to live a fulfilling and successful life despite the challenges of ADHD 
    Don't wait any longer, order your copy now and take the first step towards understanding and managing your ADHD

    Did you know that the Dutch were some of the first who came up with stocks? They were also known for their gigantic fleet, their ships, their colonies, and so much more. The 17th century was a golden age, a golden century for the Dutch, who discovered how to go to the new world in Asia, America, and other continents to transport spices, minerals, and other materials.The Dutch East India Company, officially the United East India Company (Dutch: Vereenigde Oost Indische Compagnie; VOC), was a megacorporation created in the early 17th century by a government-directed merger of many competing Dutch trade services.You might think that Amazon or Google is big, but the VOC is still thought to be the world's biggest corporation in documented history. It was established on March 20th, 1602, as a chartered business to trade with Mughal India in the early contemporary period, from which it imported 50% of fabrics and 80% of silks, mostly from the Bengal Subah area. In addition, when the Dutch federal government rewarded it a 21-year monopoly on the Dutch spice trade, the business traded with Indianized Southeast Asian nations.Find out more about this by going through this book.

    GILLIAN BICKLEY was born and educated in the UK and has lived mainly in Hong Kong since 1970. The poems in Sightings are on Hong Kong, European and personal subjects, accessible to many readers, both young and old. They consider what it is like to be a human being in this modern world, drawing inspiration mainly from the people whom the writer has encountered, especially in Hong Kong. 
    An academic turned full-time writer, editor and publisher, Gillian invites readers and listeners to share her enjoyment of city and country, simple and complex ideas and events, and her empathy with the largely innocent people she has come across. In her trademark transparent style, she draws on events, happenings, creatures, artefacts and objects she has seen, and on places and people she has experienced in Asia, Europe, North America and Africa, as well as on stimulating and memorable books she has read.  
    "She has made use of everyday life situations and turned them into life lessons. Sightings inspires us to slow down and taste the sense of the city."— Ma Kwai Hung, Hong Kong. 
    "The poems in Sightings are witty, poignant, full of memorable images and insights and a total delight." — Professor Ken Pickering 
    "Sightings conveys playfulness and ironic humour. The writer displays, 'a strong ethical sense and a constant and engaging lyricism'." —Marion Bethel, Bahamian poet 
    Bickley has, "a talent for turning the stuff of ordinary life into poetry. She continually surprises and delights by making fresh connections between seemingly disparate situations". — Mrs Margaret Clarke, Oxfordshire. 
    "Gillian Bickley walks around the world with her eyes open, relishing the phenomena she passes".— Harry Guest, Honorary University Fellow, University of Exeter, UK (from his 'Preface' to Sightings).
