Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western man is a shadow of his former self: his mind enslaved, his body weakened, his spirit corrupted and the courage and bravery he once possessed radically diminished. Western civilisation and all the achievements it encompasses once held the world in awe, yet despite this, the West is in the midst of a moral and social decline.The Fall of Western Man explains the working of the mind and how once the mind is reduced in its capacity to reason and the hardened mental fortitude of a people is broken, those people can be convinced of anything. The enemies of the West have used this knowledge to play a devious and divisive game that has undermined the common values and homogeneity found within Western society.The Fall of Western Man details how the social structures that have shaped generation after generation of Western man have been weakened and removed in order to prevent Western society from holding on to its culture and traditions. This has destroyed strong and cohesive Western communities and reduced them to disparate groups of individuals who are only concerned with hedonism and selfish pursuits. But it is still not too late for redemption. Discover how Western man can fight back against these attacks and go on to rediscover his roots and reclaim his birthright.

Book Stephen A  Douglas  Western Man

Download or read book Stephen A Douglas Western Man written by Reg Ankrom and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2021-04-23 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It didn't take long for freshman Congressman Stephen A. Douglas to see the truth of Senator Thomas Hart Benton's warning: slavery attached itself to every measure that came before the U.S. Congress. Douglas wanted to expand the nation into an ocean-bound republic. Yet slavery and the violent conflicts it stirred always interfered, as it did in 1844 with his first bill to organize Nebraska. In 1848, when America acquired 550,000 square miles after the Mexican War, the fight began over whether the territory would be free or slave. Henry Clay, a slave owner who favored gradual emancipation, packaged territorial bills from Douglas's committee with four others. But Clay's "Omnibus Bill" failed. Exhausted, he left the Senate, leaving Douglas in control. Within two weeks, Douglas won passage of all eight bills, and President Millard Fillmore signed the Compromise of 1850. It was Douglas's greatest legislative achievement. This book, a sequel to the author's Stephen A. Douglas: The Political Apprenticeship, 1833-1843, fully details Douglas's early congressional career. The text chronicles how Douglas moved the issue of slavery from Congress to the ballot box.

Book The White Man s Guide to White Male Writers of the Western Canon

Download or read book The White Man s Guide to White Male Writers of the Western Canon written by Dana Schwartz and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you use ‘taraddidle’ in a sentence? Is it possible to make a Gin Ricky that’s also a metaphor for the American Dream? How can you tell your Faulkner from your Franzen if you haven’t actually read either? Allow me, the @GuyInYourMFA, to expound on the most important (aka white male) writers of western literature. You’ve probably seen me around, observing the masses, or defying the wind by hand-rolling a cigarette outside a local, fair-trade coffeeshop. I’ve actually read Infinite Jest 9 1/2 times. Care to discuss? From Shakespeare's greatest mystery (how could a working-class man without access to an MFA program be so prolific?) to the true meaning of Kafkaesque (you know you've made it when you have an adjective named for you), the pages herewith are at once profound and practical. Use my ingenious Venn diagram to test your knowledge of which Jonathan—Franzen, Lethem, or Safran Foer—hates Twitter and lives in Brooklyn. (Trick question: all 3!) Sneer at chick-lit and drink Mojitos like Hemingway (not like middle-aged divorcées!). So instead of politely nodding along next time you make an acquaintance at a housewarming party in Brooklyn, you can roll up your sleeves and get to work schooling them in character arcs and the experimental form of your next great American novel. Dazzle your friends with how well you understand post-modernism. You’ll be at a literary event asking a question “that’s really more of a comment” in no time.

Book The Man Problem

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ross Honeywill
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2016-04-29
  • ISBN : 1137551690
  • Pages : 217 pages

Download or read book The Man Problem written by Ross Honeywill and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Man Problem, Ross Honeywill posits that the potential for evil in all men is the social, political, and economic problem of our age. Drawing on the work of social critics and theorists including Zygmunt Bauman, Karl Marx, Hannah Arendt, Simone de Beauvoir, Jean Baudrillard, Slavoj Žižek, and others, the book traces destructive masculinity through cultural texts, social systems, and everyday life practices. Using the lens of social theory, social philosophy, feminist cultural studies, and sociology, The Man Problem explores the legacy of the Enlightenment as a context for a social world constructed by men (in modernity), deconstructed (in postmodernity) and reconstructed (in the liquid present). This book investigates the outlines of the patriarchy and why the men who legitimate it behave the way they do. Despite the troubled and troubling legacy of masculinity, Honeywill reveals an alternative path forward.

Book Parasites and Western Man

    Book Details:
  • Author : R.J. Donaldson
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 9401161941
  • Pages : 230 pages

Download or read book Parasites and Western Man written by R.J. Donaldson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide a concise account of those parasites which affect man in developed countries. Other textbooks relate mainly to the tropics and subtropics where parasites by comparison are more common. It is widely believed that this difference in prevalence between tropical and temperate countries is due to differences in climatic conditions alone. Whilst it is true that certain vectors can only act as transmitters of disease under climatic conditions found in the tropics, there are many other instances where climate per se is not a decisive factor. More often parasitic disease is related to the poor standards of hygiene, sanitation and nutrition, which characterize many of these tropical and subtropical areas. The advent of more international travel has added a new dimension to the study of parasites, with the appearance of rare and exotic parasitic infections in the West. This book encompasses the entire field of parasites in developed countries with a brief reference to other parts of the world whenever appropriate for the sake of completeness. Each chapter provides basic information as well as recent advances and current thinking. Thus the book will serve as an excellent, comprehensive in troduction to those taking up a specialized interest in the subject, as well as those who may wish to obtain general information but are not actively working in the field. Although it is primarily written from a medical and veterinary stand point, it provides valuable material for other disciplines.

Book A Gender Handbook for Western Man

Download or read book A Gender Handbook for Western Man written by Elder George and published by Book Hub Inc. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his book A Gender Handbook for Western Man, author Elder George states that Western thought suffers from a gender imbalance, specifically from a lack of masculine influence, and does not understand the purpose of human existence. George maintains that mankind’s purpose on Earth is the propagation and preservation of humankind while on its spiritual journey. Consequently, Western thought has pursued a grossly materialistic lifestyle, leading to the destruction of the family and consequently an implosion of society. George attributes the issues facing society, such as high prison populations, high divorce and adultery rates, the growing dependency on medication, and the increasing incidence of mental illness, to Western thought’s ignorance of gender and the patriarchal structure necessary for the well-being of humankind. George believes that those with a marriage, a family, and a spiritual orientation realize the limitations of the materialistic society that engulfs them. In need of direction, A Gender Handbook for Western Man offers hope and direction by describing in logical, non-technical, and readily understandable terms the natural patriarchal way of life that supports family.

Book The Collected Works of Wyndham Lewis  Time and Western Man

Download or read book The Collected Works of Wyndham Lewis Time and Western Man written by Paul Edwards and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-19 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Collected Works of Wyndham Lewis brings together for the first time all of the published writings of Wyndham Lewis (1882-1957), a major contributor to literary modernism and one of the most important British painters of the first half of the twentieth century. This is the first comprehensive edition of Time and Western Man, with explanatory notes, previously unpublished drafts, a history of composition, and an account of its critical reception. Originally published in 1927, Time and Western Man is one of Lewis's most important books, and a pioneering work of cultural criticism. It contains scathing criticism of his fellow modernist writers, Ezra Pound, James Joyce, and Gertrude Stein. The second part of the book analyses and attacks the philosophy of 'Time', focusing especially on Henri Bergson, A. N. Whitehead, Samuel Alexander, and Oswald Spengler. Many of Lewis's most penetrating arguments are in the drafts that are printed in this edition for the first time.

Book Wake Up  America  A Handy Western Man s Woman s Guide to Refuting Dishonest Islamic Recitals of Peaceful Coexistence with the West

Download or read book Wake Up America A Handy Western Man s Woman s Guide to Refuting Dishonest Islamic Recitals of Peaceful Coexistence with the West written by Gregory Lang and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North and South Americans of Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, and many other backgrounds need to wake up now to the very real danger of the Islamic Sharia law threat. Atheists, agnostics, Muslim-Americans, and secular humanists should also read this book, because they, too, should know that they are facing a loss of freedom and security in Western nations. Western Europeans have awakened too late, to find great swaths of their cities already "Islamicized" and their courts infiltrated by Sharia law. And what is the prime source of Sharia law? It is none other than the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an itself. Wake Up, America serves to arm the readers with the knowledge necessary to argue effectively against anyone who tries to convince people that Western nations have nothing to fear from the ever encroaching political Islam. "Islamization" of non-Muslim nations has already been going on for centuries, and now it is also occurring in the United States, Canada, and elsewhere in the Western Hemisphere. Wake up, Americans! Read this book to discover for yourselves exactly what the Qur'an commands its Muslim followers to believe and think about non-Muslims, and more importantly, how to behave and act toward all non-Muslims. About the Author Gregory Lang is a native of Oscoda, Michigan. He is a teacher. He has a master's degree in European history from Marquette University and a master's degree in education from Prairie View A&M University.
