  World’s Most Famous Megaliths...

  Despite the fact some Neolithic communities grew to considerable sizes, they’re typically not considered when people think of the first ancient civilizations or the first major cities, so when German archaeologists discovered the archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe in southeastern Turkey in the 1990s, it created an academic firestorm that is still raging. Far from being just another settlement, Göbekli Tepe has been described as the world’s first temple and perhaps one of the locations where human civilization began. Subsequent archaeological work at Göbekli Tepe has revealed that the site was a spiritual center for the local population during a time when humans were undergoing a transition as hunter-gatherers in the Paleolithic Period to a more sedentary lifestyle in the Neolithic Period, more than 10,000 years ago.  
  	Naturally, when European archaeologists began unearthing the megaliths of Malta in the 19th century, they did not know what to think, which led to a plethora of theories, many of them quite fantastic. At least 23 of these temples were uncovered, but because the people who built them lacked the knowledge of writing, speculation over who built them and why remained well into the 20th century (Rountree 2003, 26). Some people theorized that the Malta megaliths were built by a race of giants, while others believed that it was the center of a “Mother Earth” cult that later spread through Neolithic Europe.  
  	On the Salisbury Plain, only a few hours from the hustle and bustle of Central London, remains one of the greatest surviving relics of humanity's ancient past: the mighty stone circle of Stonehenge. Stonehenge is one of the most well-known ancient sites in the world, and an image of it raises numerous associations and emotional responses. Its impressiveness comes not only from its size and remarkable level of preservation, but more so because of incredible precision during an era of simple technology.

  The Red and the Black

  Stendhal

  "In a world of cold calculation, can a heart of fire survive?"
  
  Born the son of a provincial carpenter, Julien Sorel is possessed by a brilliant mind and a dangerous obsession with Napoleon Bonaparte. Realizing that the "Red" path of military glory is closed to him in the stagnant era of the Bourbon Restoration, he chooses the "Black" path of the clergy as a means to power. Julien's journey takes him from the bedchambers of provincial nobility to the glittering salons of Paris, as he maneuvers through a society where hypocrisy is the only language spoken fluently. Caught between his genuine passion for the gentle Madame de Rênal and his intellectual fascination with the haughty Mathilde de la Mole, Julien finds that the climb to the top is paved with secrets that could lead to his ultimate downfall.
  
  The "Red" vs. the "Black": The title serves as a perfect metaphor for Julien's internal conflict. The "Red" represents the lost glory of the battlefield and the meritocracy of the Empire, while the "Black" represents the mourning clothes of the Church and the subtle, often corrupt, influence of the priesthood. Julien is a hero who plays a part he despises to achieve a status he craves.
  
  A Pioneer of Psychology: Stendhal was one of the first novelists to focus intensely on "inner monologue." He provides a window into Julien's constant self-analysis and strategic thinking, revealing the anxiety and pride that drive every move. It is a remarkably modern look at how we construct our identities to fit the expectations of others.
  
  Why It Is a Literary Essential: The Red and the Black is the ultimate "outsider" novel. It speaks to anyone who has ever felt like they were watching life from the sidelines, planning their entry. It is a thrilling, tragic, and bitingly funny critique of a society that rewards the mask more than the man.
  
  Witness the rise and fall of Julien Sorel. Purchase "The Red and the Black" today.
