A Pickle for the Knowing Ones by Timothy Dexter is an eccentric and humorous book that offers a glimpse into the mind of one of America's most unconventional historical figures. Written in 1802 without regard for spelling, grammar, or punctuation, the book is a mix of personal anecdotes, philosophical musings, and complaints about society and his critics. Dexter, a self-proclaimed genius and wildly successful businessman despite his unorthodox methods, famously included an addendum of punctuation marks at the end of the book for readers to "pepper and salt" as they pleased. This quirky work remains a testament to Dexter's larger-than-life personality and a curious artifact of early American literature.

It has been called Wonderland, America"s Serengeti, the crown jewel of the National Park System, and America"s best idea. But how did this faraway landscape evolve into one of the most recognizable places in the world? As the birthplace of the national park system, Yellowstone witnessed the first-ever attempt to protect wildlife, to restore endangered species, and to develop a new industry centered on nature tourism. Yellowstone remains a national icon, one of the few entities capable of bridging ideological divides in the United States. Yet the park"s history is also filled with episodes of conflict and exclusion, setting precedents for Native American land dispossession, land rights disputes, and prolonged tensions between commercialism and environmental conservation. Yellowstone"s legacies are both celebratory and problematic. A Place Called Yellowstone tells the comprehensive story of Yellowstone National Park as the story of the nation itself.

The world today faces many grave problems, but arguably the gravest and most urgent is what has long been called the Jewish Question: how society should respond to the presence of a wealthy, powerful, and malicious Jewish minority. This question has existed for as long as Jews have interacted with Gentiles. For millennia, prominent observers have viewed the Jews as a plague, a curse, upon the Earth. The situation is unchanged in the present day.During the second half of World War Two, two National Socialist writers-Dr. Robert Ley and Hans-Georg Otto-were tasked with writing short texts on the Jewish Question for a broad German audience. Their mission was to convey the dangers posed to civilized society by the Jews. Ley then wrote a booklet entitled Pesthauch der Welt ("A Plague on the World"), and Otto produced a text called Der Jude als Weltparasit ("The Jew as World-Parasite"). Both are included, complete and unedited, in the present volume.Despite the controversial nature of the material, both writers handled their writing tasks with care and scholarship. They draw from history, from academic sources, and from current news events, seeking to portray the Jewish danger in a clear and concise manner. Both men succeeded admirably.These two texts, combined here for the first time as a single work, stand as classic works of the genre, and provide immense educational value-both on the thinking of that time and in light of present world events. These works, like much of National Socialist writing, embody timeless lessons and eternal wisdom, for those willing to listen objectively.

Quelques jours après le combat qui les a opposés au Grand Inquisiteur Vitalis, Amicia et Hugo apprennent qu'ils sont recherchés et prennent la direction de l'Est, loin des troupes anglaises affaiblies et d'une Inquisition revancharde. Secrètement à leurs trousses, des Flagellants menés par un zélote bien décidé à faire de Hugo le martyre christique qui accompagnera leurs processions en « éclaboussant du sang sacré de ses plaies l'Humanité pécheresse ». Très vite, la routine itinérante du groupe est troublée par le réveil de la Macula qui afflige Hugo de céphalées et de cauchemars terribles. Après quelques manifestations étranges qui leur permettent néanmoins d'échapper à l'implacable exorciste, Béatrice et Lucas sont catégoriques : les cauchemars d'Hugo, exaltés par la Macula, commencent à altérer le réel autour de lui (émotions contagieuses, confusion des sens, hallucinations, rats paniqués qui échappent à l'appel du garçonnet). Les jours passent, et les symptômes d'Hugo s'intensifient, mettant en péril à la fois sa santé mentale et la vie de ses compagnons.Un roman haletant, développé en étroite collaboration avec le studio Asobo, où vous aurez plaisir à retrouver les personnages avant de les incarner à nouveau dans A Plague Tale: Requiem.

"All art," Oscar Wilde once announced, "is quite useless." Selected here are some of his finest prose works on the subject of art - useless, illuminating, artificial, uplifting, radical, gorgeous, boring, sublime - and his most brilliant aphorisms on the creative life. Whether lamenting the crass urge to hold art to realist or natural standards or arguing against morality as a guiding principle, Wilde defends the artist while delighting the audience.

A Polyvagal Informed Approach to Therapeutic Work with Children and Young People presents a guide to best supporting children and young people through a polyvagal lens.

The chronicle of Stephen Dedalus's Dublin childhood and youth offers an oblique self-portrait of the young James Joyce. Exuberantly inventive, this coming-of-age story is a tour de force of style and technique.

(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed) In his first and still most widely read novel, James Joyce makes a strange peace with the traditional narrative of a young man's self-discovery by respecting its substance while exploding its form, thereby inaugurating a literary revolution. Published in 1916 when Joyce was al?ready at work on "Ulysses," "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" is exactly what its title says and much more. In an exuberantly in?ventive masterpiece of subjectivity, Joyce portrays his alter ego, Stephen Dedalus, growing up in Dublin and struggling through religious and sexual guilt toward an aesthetic awak?ening. In part a vivid picture of Joyce's own youthful evolution into one of the twentieth century's greatest writers, it is also a moment in the intellectual history of an age.

Originally published in serial format in "The Egoist" between 1914 and 1915, "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man," is the semi-autobiographical portrayal of James Joyce's early upbringing as an Irish Catholic in late 19th century and early 20th centur

A piercing examination of our current social and political situation through the lens of Integral Theory—by the framework’s founder, cutting-edge philosopher Ken Wilber.Our overwhelmingly divisive socio-political climate is among the greatest challenges of our time. Not only in America but also internationally, it seems that almost every issue raises incredibly vocal oppositional views. Not least of all, the arising of vast networks of disinformation is a testament to our deepening rifts. With so much hostility, antagonism, cynicism, and discord, how can we mend the ruptures in our society?Acclaimed philosopher Ken Wilber examines our polarization through the lens of Integral Theory to show what led to these fractures, both in America and around the world—as well as what is needed for humanity to move forward. In his provocative analysis, he explores how the arising of support for antagonistic authoritarians represents a backlash against the failure of those at the leading edge of consciousness (postmodernism and pluralism) to acknowledge the challenges that persist amidst our imagined progress: that, to date, society has been not proven to be equal, and liberty and justice have not been consistent for all. But a new Integral force is emerging that can move beyond the narcissism, nihilism, and cynicism to offer genuine leadership and move us all toward greater wholeness. All of us can be part of the movement, and here Ken Wilber shows us how.

"A Posthumous Confession "is narrated by Termeer, a deeply frustrated man who persuades himself that only in murder can he find ultimate satisfaction. Emotionally stunted, thanks to his upbringing by forbidding and condemning parents--they never miss a chance to remind him that he is a worthless mediocrity--Termeer is rapidly living up to their low expectations when, to his own and others' astonishment, he successfully woos a beautiful and gifted woman. But instead of finding happiness in his marriage, he discovers it to be a new source of self-hatred, hatred that he directs at his innocent wife and child. And when he becomes caught up in an affair with a woman as demanding as his own self-loathing, Termeer murders his wife. What is the self? What makes it go permanently, murderously wrong? Marcellus Emants's lacerating exploration of this age-old tragic question looks backward to Dostoyevsky and forward to Simenon, and beyond that to the memoirs of our own day.
