Hur uppstod idén om Amerika, hur har den omformats genom historien, vart är den på väg? Kring dessa och liknande frågor kretsade Engelsbergsseminariet 2009. Vilka är komponenterna i den amerikanska idén? Hur förvaltas de i dagens USA? Hur reagerar resten av världen på dem? Sker idag en övergång till en post-amerikansk värld? Vem kommer i så fall att ta över USA:s ledande ställning? Indien? Kina? Och vad skulle det innebära? Vilka tankefigurer skulle då komma att prägla världen? Eller har USA chansen att bli kvar som herre på täppan? Bevittnar vi början på slutet för idén om Amerika eller befinner vi oss bara i början av en amerikansk era? Bland bidragsgivarna märks Anatol Lieven, Deepak Lal, Jong-Yil Ra, Edward Luce och Alan Wolfe.

When a woman is found unconscious on a ping-pong table in Peckham's Warwick Gardens, it looks like a case of mistaken identity. Why would anyone want to injure this popular local mum of six? But Jim Domino, retired CID detective turned private eye, keeps asking questions. As the crime escalates to murder, Domino's investigations take him to the leafy Thames Valley, and plunge him into a dark world of ruthless people-traffickers and drug dealers. How might these sinister activities be linked to the Peckham murder? Assisted by sharp observations from his six-year-old grandson, Danny, Domino finds that important clues can come from unexpected sources. The Lady in the Park is about the good in most people, and about love, grief and childhood. The first in an exciting new crime fiction series, it weaves a diverse cast of characters into a twisty immersive plot that will leave readers craving for more investigations featuring the inimitable Jim Domino and his young sidekick, Danny.

A TELEGRAPH BEST HISTORY BOOK OF 2023 ‘A highly imaginative and thought-provoking way of exploring the personality of a man who, like him or loathe him, left an indelible mark on our age’ ADAM ZAMOYSKI Winston Churchill followed his own star. He yearned to be ‘great’, to gain historical immortality. And he did so through deeds and words: his actions as a soldier and politician, gilded by his writings as a journalist and historian. But Churchill’s path to greatness was also defined by the leaders he encountered along the way – friends and foes, at home and abroad. Men of power such as Hitler and Mussolini, Roosevelt and Stalin, David Lloyd George, Neville Chamberlain and Charles de Gaulle. And the haunting presence of the adored father who had seen nothing of merit in his troublesome son. In these men Churchill discerned greatness, or its absence, in ways that influenced his own career. This book includes some whom Churchill would not have deemed ‘great’, but who – in our own day – offer alternative mirrors of what that word might mean. Mahatma Gandhi, who infuriated Churchill by exploiting the power of powerlessness. Clement Attlee, whose heretical vision of ‘Great Britain’ was socialist and post-imperial. And his darling Clementine, channelling her ‘pinko’ sentiments to become Winston’s essential helpmate and most devoted critic. Mirrors of Greatness offers vivid new perspectives on Churchill’s life and work, showing how this unique man – with dazzling gifts and jagged flaws – learned from his ‘great contemporaries’ and what they saw in him.

Mirrors of Greatness: Churchill and the Leaders Who Shaped Him

David Reynolds

BASIC BOOKS
2024
sidottu
A "fresh, fast-paced, and bracing" (Wall Street Journal) new biography of Winston Churchill, revealing how his relationships with the other great figures of his age shaped his own triumphs and failures as a leader Winston Churchill remains one of the most revered figures of the twentieth century, his name a byword for courageous leadership. But the Churchill we know today is a mixture of history and myth, authored by the man himself. In Mirrors of Greatness, prizewinning historian David Reynolds reevaluates Churchill's life by viewing it through the eyes of his allies and adversaries, even his own family, revealing Churchill's lifelong struggle to overcome his political failures and his evolving grasp of what "greatness" truly entailed. Through his dealings with Adolf Hitler and Neville Chamberlain, we follow Churchill's triumphant campaign against Nazi Germany. But we also see a Churchill whose misjudgments of allies and rivals like Roosevelt, Stalin, Gandhi, and Clement Attlee blinded him to the British Empire's waning dominance on the world stage and to the rising popularity of a postimperial, socialist vision of Great Britain at home. Magisterial and incisive, Mirrors of Greatness affords Churchill his due as a figure of world-historical importance and deepens our understanding of his legend by uncovering the ways his greatest contemporaries helped make him the man he was, for good and for ill.

Let's face it. We are nearing the end of the world. What does the future hold for this world and for us? Prophecy is a controversial subject and some folks even claim to still be the recipients of prophetic words, visions, visits to Heaven, visits to Hell... And yet most of these accounts contradict one another. Biblical prophecy, however, has withstood the test of time for its astounding accuracy. If you believe in a sovereign God then you must believe God can superintend his thoughts, make some write down exactly what is intended for deadly accuracy. This is the reason why other religious holy books never attempt the prophetic. So then, why all the wild speculations and diverse understandings of biblical prophecy? Frankly, it is because most have a preconceived notion of where they think things should go, and then they impose those notions upon the text Prophecy: From Now On... enjoyed a good run on the Amazon Bestseller List for Kindle for a reason. In this Second Edition some additional thoughts and clarifications based upon questions on blogs, speaking engagements and one-on-one discussions. Read and learn how some cultural and traditional ways of thinking from ancient Israel inform a correct understanding that a westernized way of thinking misses. Things like the Lord's Feast Days, the ancient Hebrew wedding traditions... such things tell us how to understand the words of Jesus and the Book of Revelation. Understand Revelation like never before.

Harrison Stockton Bueller thinks he's hit bottom when he makes a new friend. Enter: the MERCANARY(TM). This is The Marvelous Saga of the MERCANARY(TM). It's also the tale of Harry's nightmarish misadventures. Problematic Press is proud to present to you this gonzo picaresque novel... or something. Is there ever any solace? This is it. This is lit ----- Somewhere between Holden Caulfield, Ignatius J. Reilly, and BoJack Horseman, you'll find Harrison Stockton Bueller playing with his G. I. Joes. MERCANARY(TM), a sells-word inspired by a typo, is a metafictional hero who's been drafted for lit's sake on land, sea, and air. His mission? Word. ----- In the words of the author: "This is a gonzo picaresque novel. It's a work of intermedial metafiction. It's a cautionary tale. It's a sob story. It's a farcical melodrama. It is high art. It adapts a 'zine of poetry and adventure. It adapts a memeoem, which is literally a new poetic art form that I invented for this. It is the culmination of my life's work in literature. It's ballsy and hubristic and vulnerable all at once. The protagonist is an anti-hero. The sidekick is really something else. The odds are against them, but they're in this to win it. Together, they make things weird. Well, this thing is certainly weird." ----- David Reynolds hasn't won any awards for his creative writing, but his most shocking anecdote has won him more beer than he could possibly ever drink. He lives in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, where he teaches English at Atlantic Canada's largest university.
