Download or read book The Wind From the East written by Richard Wolin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michel Foucault, Jean-Paul Sartre, Julia Kristeva, Phillipe Sollers, and Jean-Luc Godard. During the 1960s, a who’s who of French thinkers, writers, and artists, spurred by China’s Cultural Revolution, were seized with a fascination for Maoism. Combining a merciless exposé of left-wing political folly and cross-cultural misunderstanding with a spirited defense of the 1960s, The Wind from the East tells the colorful story of this legendary period in France. Richard Wolin shows how French students and intellectuals, inspired by their perceptions of the Cultural Revolution, and motivated by utopian hopes, incited grassroots social movements and reinvigorated French civic and cultural life. Wolin’s riveting narrative reveals that Maoism’s allure among France’s best and brightest actually had little to do with a real understanding of Chinese politics. Instead, it paradoxically served as a vehicle for an emancipatory transformation of French society. Recounting the cultural and political odyssey of French students and intellectuals in the 1960s, The Wind from the East illustrates how the Maoist phenomenon unexpectedly sparked a democratic political sea change in France.

Book excerpt: This unforgettable, sweeping odyssey will take you through the heartbreaking reality of the modern era refugees. This novel was selected by BookAuthority, as one of the best books to read about the Syrian Civil War. Ajar was an ordinary child, just like anyone else. Not anymore. Not since that day, when the muses went silent and the cannons were heard. Syrian Civil War erupted, shuffling the cards, uprooting inhabitants and making them fight for their lives. When troubles begun looming on their peaceful town, Ajar fled with his family, forcing their way to safety. Their desperate search for asylum took them away on a tense and dangerous route, caught in the crossfires of burgeoning anarchy. Inadvertently finding themselves in their new status as refugees, they soon realized that it is just the beginning of their downfall. The new reality placed them at the receiving end of a corrupt and broken system, where they faced injustice, prejudice and racism. Struggling with an ever-alienating reality, drowning at the gutters of the crime underworld, getting in troubles with ruthless terrorists, the family is forced to flee time after time, on their way to yet another dangerous journey across the Mediterranean Sea. Does their strength as a family can withstand the perils on their path? Are they going to outrun the misfortunes and find a semblance of normalcy again?
