Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conquest and Kultur The present war isoin the last analysis distinbtly a war between ideals and thus between the peoples who uphold them. On the one hand are the peoples who have faith in themselves and in each other and in the ordered ways of law and justice by which they have Sought in the past to regulate both their domestic and their international relations. Upon the other hand'are those whose ideals have been fixed for them by dynastic aims and ambitions which could only be translated into reality through subservience to authority and by the unrestricted use Of force. The first group has long had a unity in its fundamental attitudes which it did not realize until the war endangered and revealed them.

Download or read book Greek Life and Thought written by J. P. Mahaffy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Life and Thought: From the Age of Alexander to the Roman Conquest In'the second place, as this book was not in tended exclusively for scholars, it became necessary to introduce some account of the history and litera ture of the age as the background for the estimate of life and manners, which is my main Object. I might possibly have assumed a knowledge of this history and literature in the scholar, though, even for scholars, the epoch is one of great complication and obscurity, lying outside the bounds of ordinary classical reading; but, from the general reader, this special knowledge could not possibly be expected. Hence there is more actual history in the present volume than in its predecessor, and its limits are marked, not by great authors, but by great political events.

Download or read book Winning the Southwest written by Glenn D. Bradley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winning the Southwest: A Story of Conquest The political and social forces of the region lying west of the Mississippi have not yet been measured. Only as the American nation continues to grow do these forces assert their vital importance in shaping the destiny of this Republic. And who can gainsay the might of the Southwest as a vitally integral part of our national domain? Hence a story of the acquisition of this great section, the Southwest, seems worth while. The expansion of empire is always fraught with romance. No literature of any race can surpass in human interest the story of the advance of the Anglo-Saxon across this continent. It is with the acquirement of that great area called the Southwest that this little book briefly deals. No attempt has been made to give an exhaustive, sequential account of this conquest. Adequately to produce such a work would require volumes of space. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Culture and Imperialism written by Edward W. Said and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark work from the author of Orientalism that explores the long-overlooked connections between the Western imperial endeavor and the culture that both reflected and reinforced it. In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as the Western powers built empires that stretched from Australia to the West Indies, Western artists created masterpieces ranging from Mansfield Park to Heart of Darkness and Aida. Yet most cultural critics continue to see these phenomena as separate. Edward Said looks at these works alongside those of such writers as W. B. Yeats, Chinua Achebe, and Salman Rushdie to show how subject peoples produced their own vigorous cultures of opposition and resistance. Vast in scope and stunning in its erudition, Culture and Imperialism reopens the dialogue between literature and the life of its time.

Download or read book Blood and Soil written by Ben Kiernan and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 735 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book of surpassing importance that should be required reading for leaders and policymakers throughout the world For thirty years Ben Kiernan has been deeply involved in the study of genocide and crimes against humanity. He has played a key role in unearthing confidential documentation of the atrocities committed by the Khmer Rouge. His writings have transformed our understanding not only of twentieth-century Cambodia but also of the historical phenomenon of genocide. This new book—the first global history of genocide and extermination from ancient times—is among his most important achievements. Kiernan examines outbreaks of mass violence from the classical era to the present, focusing on worldwide colonial exterminations and twentieth-century case studies including the Armenian genocide, the Nazi Holocaust, Stalin’s mass murders, and the Cambodian and Rwandan genocides. He identifies connections, patterns, and features that in nearly every case gave early warning of the catastrophe to come: racism or religious prejudice, territorial expansionism, and cults of antiquity and agrarianism. The ideologies that have motivated perpetrators of mass killings in the past persist in our new century, says Kiernan. He urges that we heed the rich historical evidence with its telltale signs for predicting and preventing future genocides.
