"The Great Gatsby of my time...one of the best books by a member of my generation." —Kurt Vonnegut, acclaimed author of Slaughterhouse-Five Perhaps Frank and April Wheeler married too young and started a family too early. Maybe Frank's job is dull. And April never saw herself as a housewife. Yet they have always lived on the assumption that greatness is only just around the corner. But now that certainty is about to unravel. With heartbreaking compassion and remorseless clarity, Richard Yates shows how Frank and April mortgage their spiritual birthright, betraying not only each other, but their best selves. In his introduction to this edition, novelist Richard Ford pays homage to the lasting influence and enduring power of Revolutionary Road.

Download or read book Revolutionary Greatest Quotes Quick Short Medium Or Long Quotes Find the Perfect Revolutionary Quotations for All Occasions Spicing Up Letters Speeches and Everyday Conversations written by Lori Burke and published by Emereo Publishing. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the outcome of an idea, and the idea is very simple. It is that the best way to understand the dramatic transformation any idea can bring and to successfully bring ideas across, is to think of them as profound insights and moments of clarity often disguised as wit, captured in one single Quote. Ideas and products and messages and behaviors spread faster when they carry your message in a single line or paragraph: a Quote. To feel the impact a Quote can have, here are three Revolutionary Quotes from this book: 'Christianity is in its nature revolutionary. - Walter Rauschenbusch' 'The revolutionary government is the despotism of liberty against tyranny. - Georg Buchner' 'It's a sad and stupid thing to have to proclaim yourself a revolutionary just to be a decent man. - David Harris' Three characteristics-one, contagiousness; two, the fact that little words can have big effects; and three, that insight happens not gradually but at one dramatic moment, using the right profound words-are the same three principles that define how an idea takes off, or a product goes viral. Of the three, the third, profound, trait... is the most important, because it is the principle that makes sense of the first two and that permits the greatest insight into why some ideas stick, some changes last, some words leave an impression, and others don't. This book will give you the opportunity to find that right Quote that can change it all.

Download or read book A Little Book of Revolutionary Quotes written by A. Fielding and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power corrupted individuals with a base nature fast, leading them to embrace all kinds of vices. The only means to counteract vice was through virtuous people who were willing to fight with valor against the horrors of a corrupt government. The Founding Generation was always suspicious of too much power in the hands of the unvirtuous. Through their words, they communicated the importance of virtue over vice and continue to remind us that a nation run by people who lack virtue is a nation in name only. Well researched with mini biographies and an extensive bibliography for further pondering, "A Little Book of Revolutionary Quotes: Virtue, Valor, & Vice" is the third volume in a series of books exploring the ideas of America's Founding Generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published here in its entirety in English, Artaud's Revolutionary Messages collects Antonin Artaud's political, aesthetic and philosophical writings during his travels to Mexico in 1936. Written around the same time as his seminal work The Theatre and its Double, it captures a crucial point in Artaud's life shortly before he was admitted to a mental asylum in which he was to spend a significant part of his later life. Revolutionary Messages contains conferences that Artaud gave at the University of Mexico, articles from the daily Mexican newspaper El Nacional Revolucionario and a study of three seminal artists of the time influenced by or from Mexico: Franz Hals, Ortiz Monasterio and Maria Izquierdo. Not only will you gain crucial insight into Artaud's time in Mexico and his vision of a “total revolution,” which he places in distinction to Marxist and Surrealist conceptions of revolution, but you will deepen your understanding of the philosophical roots of his theatrical project, which ultimately shaped modern theatre and dance. The publication includes an introduction by the translator, Joel White, and a preface by Professor of European Philosophy, Howard Caygill.

Download or read book A Little Book of Revolutionary Quotes written by A K Fielding and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sugar Act. Currency Act. Quartering Act. Stamp Act. Declaratory Act. Townshend Acts. Tea Act. Intolerable Acts. Great Britain just wanted what was fair: Money to support their efforts in helping the American colonies. The Founding Generation understood too that Great Britain wanted something: Control. Control over the colonies. Control over the colonists. Over time, the unheeded requests and petitions of the colonists to Great Britain over grievances produced a forceful backlash. No taxation without representation became the rallying cry for the colonists confronted by the British Tyrant. In the end, the day of reckoning came and propelled the ultimate division. If it was once considered treason to speak against the King of England, the separation made it treason to speak against America.

Download or read book Revolutionary Threads written by Bobby Sullivan and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An American Rastafarian “offers a vibrant examination of American and African history with an anti-colonial patina . . . engaging” (Kirkus Reviews). Revolutionary Threads offers an American Rasta’s retelling of episodes in American history with an anticolonial thrust, accented by Bobby Sullivan’s own personal experiences. The book ties together various subjects while returning each time to the culture of Rastafari, social justice movements, and cooperative economics. From how we perceive history in general, America's precolonial past, and global capitalism’s early development and the resistance to it, to political prisoners and a celebration of religious tolerance, the book approaches North America with an African-centric perspective. Sullivan dispels the oversimplification of our perceptions of Rastafari, as well as other cultures, in the age of the Internet, where the loudest voices are often the most extreme and divisive. Revolutionary Threads aims to serve as a unifying agent for our all-too-connected global village, and for the resistance to the consolidation of global capital and all its excesses. “A post-hardcore rock star, community activist, and social justice intellectual offers an alternative look at countercolonial history through the lens of the Rastafari movement.” —Kirkus Reviews “Outlining his philosophical influences and backpacking through history and criss-crossing continental borders, Sullivan puts his enlightenment journey and way of life, which includes activism for social justice, prison outreach, and cooperative economics, on paper.” —The Gleaner (Jamaica) “[Sullivan] meticulously sources his work throughout, whether providing a Howard Zinn-like take on the settlement of America by Africans predating Columbus, or in discussing political prisoners like Marilyn Buck . . . an engaging, lively, well-thought book which provides a picture of Rastafarianism in action, for punks and beyond.” —Razorcake

Download or read book Revolutionary Secrets written by United States National Security Agency and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late summer of 1781, General George Washington finally saw an opportunity to take New York City away from the British. Virtually from the beginning of the War for Independence six years earlier, the British held this key city and Washington long desired to take it into American hands. Washington laid siege to the town all summer. With the expected arrival of Admiral de Grasse and ships of the French fleet along with an additional 3,000 French soldiers, he believed he may finally have his chance. But on August 14th, he changed his mind and turned his eye to Yorktown, Virginia. Intelligence, gained partially through the decryption of captured British messages, gave Washington the assurance he needed to complete his move on Yorktown. Communication plays an important role in both a country's diplomacy and its wars. Even if that country doesn't yet exist. Keeping those communications secret, or the ability to understand the adversary's communications, can make the crucial difference in a leader's actions and abilities. At the time of the American Revolution, both the British and the American rebels practiced a variety of methods to keep their written communications secret. Both had networks of spies who needed to pass on their information right under the noses of their adversaries. Both turned to invisible inks, hidden messages, and secret writing in the form of ciphers and codes. Ciphers and codes, cryptography, change messages into something unintelligible by the use of keys and lists. Ciphers rearrange letters or change individual letters into a different letter, number, or symbol based on a prearranged setting known as a key. Codes change entire words or phrases into other words, number groups, or symbols based on a list or a book. To decrypt the secret messages, the receiver needs access to the original key. Theoretically, the adversary wouldn't have the key and therefore could not understand the message even if it was captured. Solving a message without having the key, cryptanalysis, has been a science employed by governments for as long as people have been using cryptography to make their messages secret. European governments have a long history of "Black Chambers" the offices where other countries' diplomatic mail was opened and read. If the message was encoded, a Black Chamber tried to solve the code and read the message. This is the story of revolutionary communications and cryptologic secrets and the role they played in America's war for independence.
