Synopsis

In "History of European Morals From Augustus to Charlemagne," William Edward Hartpole Lecky delivers a thorough exploration of the evolution of moral thought across Europe, spanning from the Roman Empire through the early medieval period. With his characteristic analytical precision, Lecky employs a narrative style that intertwines historical fact with philosophical inquiry, offering insights into how shifting socio-cultural dynamics influenced moral evolution. The work is meticulously organized, with an emphasis on key figures and movements that delineated moral progress, skillfully contextualizing their relevance within the broader tapestry of European history. Lecky, an Irish historian and philosopher, wrote this seminal work during a time when Victorian intellectuals grappled with the implications of moral relativism and the historical roots of ethical systems. His keen interest in the connections between history, philosophy, and social progress informed his exploration of moral sentiment, ultimately reflecting his commitment to understanding the interplay between evolving morality and historical context. This inquiry is notable, especially during a period marked by rapid industrial and social change in Europe. Readers seeking a deepened understanding of the foundations of European moral thought will find Lecky's work indispensable. As it engages with pivotal questions regarding ethics, justice, and societal values, this book remains a critical resource for scholars and general readers alike, illuminating the enduring legacies that continue to shape moral discourse today.

    Coming Full Circle is a detailed, informative guide on using psychedelics to heal that is intertwined with a deeply personal memoir of the authors own journey of healing. It will empower its listeners with a greater understanding of the true potential, limitations, risks, and nuances to the process of using psychedelics to heal trauma. 
    With each passing year, new evidence of the immense healing potential psychedelics offer for anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, and more emerge from credible studies and research groups. As the excitement grows, so too does the often dangerous misinformation generated by profiteers and pseudo experts. A fierce protector of those who are utilizing psychedelics as a way to heal their emotional wounds and trauma, Shannon Duncan knows firsthand the courage, determination, and vulnerability required to approach emotional healing in this specialized way. 
    "Coming Full Circle comes at a time when many are considering trying psychedelics as a means to healing their trauma. This book gives an unflinching, realistic look at what treatment resistant trauma can look like and takes the reader on a journey of healing with a raw, painfully honest delivery. It’s a powerful tale of healing emotional wounds and trauma with the help of psychedelics.” 
    -Rick Doblin, PhD, (Founder and President of MAPS, Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) 
    “When it comes to psychedelic experiences and the management of trauma, Shannon Duncan has walked the walk. What he shares in Coming Full Circle, the result of years of direct engagement at the heart of the mystery, is both deeply healing and richly informative. Highly recommended.” 
    - Graham Hancock, author of The Divine Spark and Fingerprints of the Gods.

    YouTube features a wide array of multimodal musical figurations, including fan-made music videos, musical aestheticisations of pre-circulating content, and musical self-performances. Jonas Wolf explores open-ended forms of musical creative relay on YouTube, delving into formal, imitative, affective, and (non-)institutional aspects of networked media remix and (self-)aestheticisation. Beyond creating value for non-musical fields of discourse, this study is directed at filling a gap in a largely ocularcentric domain of study. It provides a concise theory of vernacular composition within our time's total digital archive that accounts for socio-aesthetic phenomena and their relation to systems of knowledge, control, and discourse.

    Being Cosmopolitan - A Political...

    What does it mean to be cosmopolitan? Typically, cosmopolitanism is understood as a broad moral orientation, involving some kind of commitment to global moral equality. On this understanding, to be cosmopolitan is simply to evidence that moral orientation oneself. By contrast, Being Cosmopolitan takes up a thoroughly political approach. The focus is on what it might mean, and what it is like, to be political in a distinctly cosmopolitan form. What it means to be cosmopolitan in this thoroughly political sense cannot involve appeal to any particular moral orientation, because politics is about, inter alia, the contestation of such orientations and commitments. Instead, this book offers an account that is based upon the internalization of particular kind of global "social imaginary," involving the imagination of a global public to which certain issues—or global public affairs—are understood to pertain. 
     
     
     
    Within which kind of global order is it possible, or comfortable, for a cosmopolitical agent to live? In answer to this question, the book argues against the viability of both a world of self-determining peoples, and of "pluralist" global visions—both of which are popular with moral cosmopolitan theorists.

    Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
    A Groundbreaking Portrait of African American Christianity
    The history of African American Christianity is one of the determined faith of a people driven to pursue spiritual and social uplift for themselves and others to God's glory. Yet stories of faithful Black Christians have often been forgotten or minimized. The dynamic witness of the Black church in the United States is an essential part of Christian history that must be heard and dependably retold.
    In this groundbreaking two-volume work, Walter R. Strickland II does just that through a theological-intellectual history highlighting the ways theology has formed and motivated Black Christianity across the centuries. Through his original research he has identified five theological anchors grounding African Americans in Christian orthodoxy:
    
    - Big God
    - Jesus
    - Conversion and walking in the Spirit
    - The Good Book
    - Deliverance
    In volume 1, a narrative history, Strickland tells the story of these themes from the 1600s to the present. He explores the crucial ecclesiastical, social, and theological developments, including the rise of Black evangelicalism as well as broader contributions to politics and culture.
    Swing Low offers a defining rubric under which to observe, understand, and learn from the diverse and living entity that is African American Christianity. Volume 2, a companion anthology, covers the breadth of these historical developments by presenting primary-source documents so we can listen to Black Christianity in its own words.
