Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ethics and Religious Philosophy of Etty Hillesum contains the proceedings of the second international Etty Hillesum Congress at Ghent University in January 2014 and is a joint effort by fifteen Hillesum experts to shed new light on the life, works and vision of the Dutch Jewish writer Etty Hillesum (1914-1943), one of the victims of the Nazi-regime. Hillesum’s diaries and letters illustrate her heroic struggle to come to terms with her personal life in the context of the Holocaust. This volume revives Hillesum research with a comprehensive rereading of her texts. With the current rise of interest in peace studies, Judaism, the Holocaust, inter-religious dialogue, gender studies and mysticism, it is evident that this book will be invaluable to students and scholars in various disciplines.

This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macrotrend of our present: instructions for use. We live in the age of endless change. Technological innovations are profoundly and irreversibly affecting our everyday life. Progress seems somehow to subvert individual and collective parametres in such a way that often we tend to ask ourselves what we can do for machines more than what they can do for us. In these pages the author shares a participating and curious gaze to the deep changes of our times, with the ongoing tension to draw together the scattered pieces of information left by our uncertain present and to gain new keys to interpretation. From the new technologies of AI and ubiquitous computing to the growing issues of international security , from the so called Fourth Industral Revolution to the new paradigm of the sharing economy, from the role of the technological mammoths in the new world order to the changes in the labour market and the increasing societal inequality: a bunch of burning issues are here addressed both with intellectual commitment and conversational levity, with the aim to foster public debate and awareness and to help present day and future leaders to shape new policies, both at business and governamental level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italian Verbs with Exercises is an extensive resource designed to assist learners of the Italian language in mastering verb conjugations and their correct usage. The book serves as both a comprehensive guide and a practical workbook for students at various levels of proficiency. The introduction of the book lays the groundwork by presenting an overview of the formation and use of all Italian verb tenses. It aims to provide learners with a solid understanding of how different tenses are structured, when they should be used, and the nuances they bring to the language. Following the introduction, the book delves into the core of Italian verb conjugation. It presents 161 model conjugations, covering a wide range of both regular (11 models) and irregular verbs (150 models). These models serve as a reference point for students, illustrating patterns and exceptions that are crucial for forming correct verb tenses. Each model verb is accompanied by a set of examples that put the verb into context, demonstrating its use in practical, real-life sentences. This approach helps learners not only memorize the conjugation but also understand how to apply it in conversation or writing. To reinforce the learning process, the book includes exercises that are strategically distributed throughout the text. These activities are designed to test the students' knowledge as they progress, ensuring that they practice conjugating verbs and using them in appropriate tenses. In addition to the exercises, Italian Verbs with Exercises offers an extensive verb list, featuring more than 2500 verbs. Each verb in the list references back to one of the 161 model conjugations, making it easy for learners to understand how to conjugate it by drawing parallels with the model. This list is an invaluable tool for students to expand their vocabulary and for quick reference during practice. Each verb in the list also comes with its English translation, aiding students who are learning Italian as a second language to quickly grasp the meaning of unfamiliar verbs and incorporate them into their active vocabulary. Italian Verbs with Exercises is not just a textbook; it's a practical companion for any learner who wishes to gain fluency and confidence in using Italian verbs. With its clear explanations, abundant examples, and rigorous exercises, this book promises to be an essential tool in the journey to mastering the Italian language. Whether for self-study or as a supplement to classroom instruction, it offers a thorough approach to one of the most important aspects of learning Italian.
Download or read book Heritage and the Existential Need for History written by Maud Webster and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a sweeping survey of archaeological sites spanning thousands of years, Heritage and the Existential Need for History asks fundamental questions about the place of cultural heritage in Western society. What is history? Why do we write about the events of yesterday and set up memorials for them? Why do we visit places where momentous things have happened? Maud Webster takes readers on a journey from Bronze Age Mycenae through the Greek Dark Ages, from Medieval Rome through the Italian Renaissance, and from Viking Sweden to Restoration-period England and Civil War America. Combining archaeology, history, and psychology, Webster explores themes including literacy and text, monumentality and spoliation, and death and identity. She traces the human need for history at two levels—the collective, here shown through archaeological evidence, and the individual, shown through written records and the behavior they document. Webster’s robust cross-examination of artifacts and texts, and the illustrations drawn from this methodology, attest that locating our history helps us anchor ourselves, for multiple purposes and from varying perspectives, and that the drive to write and build histories is an enduring part of the human experience.
Download or read book A Guide to Italian Language and Culture for English Speaking Learners of Italian written by Barbara Gabriella Renzi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Italian textbook is divided into two parts. The first consists of texts and dialogues, which help the reader to have fun while learning Italian. This section is also peppered with grammar lessons. The second part uses a number of photos, which encourage students to speak about what they see. Its topics are culturally interesting, and include cities to visit, recipes and small biographies of famous Italian poets and writers. As such, the book is suitable for students who are at beginner and post-beginner levels; in other words, A1, A2, B1, and B2. Students of the latter level can use the first two parts of the book to revise what they have studied in the past and the third part to improve their vocabulary and their reading skills. One of the strengths of this book is in its recordings, which used several people with a range of different accents. Such variety of accents and voices represents a good training tool for the student of Italian. The book also includes contributions from Michela Dettori, Michela Esposito, Elsa Musacchio, Davide Renzi, Lea De Negri, Denise Pellini, Maria Andreana Deiana, Lia Renzi, Clara Lucci and Flavia Rovella, which serve to make it unique and interesting.

Download or read book Romance motion verbs in language change written by Katrin Pfadenhauer and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-07-22 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-linguistically, motion verbs are frequently involved in language change and feature a wide array of motion-related constructions. The aim of this volume is to grasp more completely the typological characteristics and the developmental potential of motion verbs and to acknowledge the formal and functional diversity of motion-related constructions in Romance languages. To this end, the contributions in this collection provide synchronic and diachronic as well as typologically oriented studies that focus on motion verbs and single- and multi-verb constructions that have received scant attention to date. These include verbal periphrases, (pseudo-/semi-)copula and pseudo-coordinated constructions in Spanish, Italian, Romanian, French and French-based Creoles. In comparison to previous research on Romance languages, the present volume also adopts a broader perspective on language change, taking into account not only grammaticalization processes but also discursive, lexical and pragmatic phenomena such as the development of discursive, quotative or mirative functions. The studies build on functional, usage-based and constructionist models of language change and rely on corpus-based as well as experimental empirical approaches.

Download or read book Myths of Modern History written by Jacques R. Pauwels and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 2022-05-13 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revisionist historian Jacques R. Pauwels challenges readers to reconsider what they know about some key events in the last 250 years of world history. At a time when it’s all too easy to see history in black-and-white terms, historian Jacques R. Pauwels urges readers to let go of conventional history textbooks and re-examine historical events outside the bounds of conventional ideologies and agendas. Pauwels uses twelve key events, from the French Revolution onwards, to debunk well-known accepted historical narratives in the western canon. He challenges readers to rethink their views by compiling the recent work of specialized scholars whose research demonstrates that the facts contradict the myths that have been offered to explain these events. Beginning with a reconsideration of the impacts of the French Revolution, Pauwels finishes by dismantling the American narrative surrounding the use of nuclear weapons in the Second World War and the real rationale for the Cold War and the U.S.’s postwar global democracy project.
