Atlantis Revealed: by Medieval and NASA Ocean Floor Maps & Ancient Mythology by Riaan Booysen (1 Review)    Price verified 39 minutes ago

During my research into the gods of antiquity, it was inevitable that I would come across Plato's legend of Atlantis. Plato introduced Atlantis to the world around 360 BCE in his dialogues Timaeus and Critias, quoting Solon of Athens who had visited Egypt between 590 and 580 BCE. According to Solon, the mighty civilisation of Atlantis existed and perished about 9,000 years before his time, thus about 11,600 years ago. He described Atlantis as an 'island' that sank beneath the ocean in a single day and night, along with, apparently, the rest of the civilised world. However, this 'island' was larger than ancient Libya and Asia together: an enormous continent. I also became familiar with the massive 'imaginary' continent called Terra Australis Incognita (the Unknown Land in the South), which had - apparently out of the blue - appeared on practically all medieval maps of the world. I recall quite clearly: I almost immediately realised that, as it no longer exists (having disappeared ...

Sentencing in Time by Linda Ross Meyer (1 Review)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Exactly how is it we think the ends of justice are accomplished by sentencing someone to a term in prison? How do we relate a quantitative measure of time -- months and years -- to the objectives of deterring crime, punishing wrongdoers, and accomplishing justice for those touched by a criminal act? Linda Ross Meyer investigates these questions, examining the disconnect between our two basic modes of thinking about time -- chronologically (seconds, minutes, hours), or phenomenologically (observing, taking note of, or being aware of the passing of time). In Sentencing in Time, Meyer asks whether -- in overlooking the irreconcilability of these two modes of thinking about time -- we are failing to accomplish the ends we believe the criminal justice system is designed to serve. Drawing on work in philosophy, legal theory, jurisprudence, and the history of penology, Meyer explores how, rather than condemning prisoners to an experience of time bereft of meaning, we might instead make the ...

Have a Nice Guy by Phil Torcivia (8 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

You don't want a bad boy, my dear; at least not in the real world. You can fantasize all you like about a scruffy, Harley-driving, tattooed beast who does things you thought you'd never allow. But, you don't want to meet him, because eventually he's going to shit all over you, emotionally. You need a nice guy. Forget that nonsense about how anything worthwhile is worth working hard for. If you wanted to buy a horse you could ride around the neighborhood, you would never opt for a wild bronco that would scream, thrash, and resist every attempt you made to civilize him. You'd go for the broken stud, and avoid a broken neck. That's why I suggest you recalibrate your penis-homing device. If you're in a bar, and you spot a tanned God in a vintage T-shirt and sandals who winks and slaps your ass as he walks by, run away. Run toward that kind fellow over there -- the one who has been down the aisle a few times, and learned how to behave. Have a nice guy!

Bluestocking Feminism and British-German Cultural Transfer, 1750-1837 by Alessa Johns (1 Review)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Bluestocking Feminism and British-German Cultural Transfer, 1750-1837 examines the processes of cultural transfer between Britain and Germany during the Personal Union, the period from 1714 to 1837 when the kings of England were simultaneously Electors of Hanover. While scholars have generally focused on the political and diplomatic implications of the Personal Union, Alessa Johns offers a new perspective by tracing sociocultural repercussions and investigating how, in the period of the American and French Revolutions, Britain and Germany generated distinct discourses of liberty even though they were nonrevolutionary countries. British and German reformists -- feminists in particular -- used the period's expanded pathways of cultural transfer to generate new discourses as well as to articulate new views of what personal freedom, national character, and international interaction might be. Johns traces four pivotal moments of cultural exchange: the expansion of the book trade, the rage ...
