In his final masterpiece, The Annals, Tacitus masterfully chronicles the tumultuous years following Augustus Caesars death in 14 AD. Although he aimed to write at least 16 books, several sections have been lost to history, including books 7-10 and parts of books 5, 6, 11, and 16. The narrative culminates with Tiberiuss death, leaving us to ponder how Tacitus would have depicted the reigns of Caligula and Claudius, leading into the dramatic events of Nero’s rule and his death in June 68 AD. Tacituss ambition for a comprehensive history of the early Empire remains unfulfilled, as he passed ...

This full account is of Polk's important pre-presidential career. Since Polk was immersed in so many of the major political developments of his day, and after 1835 the fateful emergence of sectional animosities-his biography is also a history of his generation’s political experience. Professor Sellers has combined the elements with a sure hand, bringing out Polk’s character-his ambition, his determination, his faith in the electorate-and the nature of his friends, his enemies, and the times in which he moved.

En este audiolibro, Ismael Ocampo pone la mirada en los procesos que viven los hombres, lo cual nos invita a pensar y reflexionar sobre cómo se plasman las relaciones sociales en un contexto donde la digitalización de la vida, la algoritmización de la atención y el advenimiento absoluto de la inteligencia artificial modifican comportamientos, decisiones e ideologías de individuos y comunidades. La manósfera se complejiza a gran velocidad y aparecen nuevos agentes de desinformación y manipulación.

(Peter Dale Scott, English Department, University of California, Berkeley, author of Cocaine Politics, Deep Politics, Crime & Cover-Up, Coming to Jakarta)

Blanche Wiesen Cook recreates Eleanor Roosevelt in all of her roles -- as a visionary, an activist, a political wife, and a woman far more independent than we knew. No other First Lady has had a greater influence in the course of democracy in this century, and no other book about Eleanor Roosevelt captures the complexity of her character - her wit, her passion, her boldness, and her commitment to greater dignity and security for all women and men.

The suppression of the African slave trade is intricately linked to its origins, the institution of American slavery, and the sweeping colonial policies of the eighteenth century. This complex interplay makes it difficult to tackle the subject without falling into superficiality or overly narrow viewpoints. While I do not claim to fully resolve these challenges, my hope is that this monograph will serve as a significant contribution to the academic discourse surrounding slavery and the African American experience. (Summary by W.E. Burghardt Du Bois)

Nel luglio 1965, le adolescenti Sylvia e Jenny Likens furono affidate temporaneamente a Gertrude Baniszewski, una madre single di mezza età, e ai suoi sette figli. La famiglia Baniszewski era sommersa di bambini. C'erano poche regole e ampia libertà. Purtroppo, l'ambiente creava una pericolosa gerarchia di darwinismo sociale in cui i forti predavano i deboli. Quello che accadde nei tre mesi successivi fu tanto avvincente quanto agghiacciante. Nell'ottobre del 1965, il corpo di Sylvia Likens fu trovato nel seminterrato di casa Baniszewski, dove era stata imprigionata.

A passionate advocate for the civil rights of all racial minorities, Du Bois was a prolific writer dedicated to the cause. In his inaugural editorial, he articulates the mission of The Crisis to highlight the peril of racial prejudice, particularly against people of color. The title reflects the belief that this is a pivotal ...

In 1861 he travelled throughout the Canadas and the United States in order to ascertain firsthand their customs, the various societies, the institutions and politics of this young country. It is tremendously interesting to hear his comments and rigorous opinions regarding everything from hotels to railway cars, living arrangements and habits. He is especially vocal when it comes to his thoughts on the Civil War. Throughout his narrative the attention to historical details is flawless...
