楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Imperialism" and "The Tracks of Our Forefathers," Charles Francis Adams delves into the complexities of American expansionism and cultural identity during the late 19th century. Through a meticulous blend of historical narrative and personal reflection, Adams examines the socio-political ramifications of imperialist policies, employing a literary style that is both incisive and evocative. He intertwines empirical research with philosophical inquiry, enabling readers to grasp the intricate relationship between the past and present dynamics of American imperialism. Adams, a significant figure in American history and literature, draws from his own familial legacy as a descendant of President John Adams. His experiences as a politician and diplomat exposed him to the global implications of American foreign policy. This background not only informs his critique of imperialism but also reflects his deep-seated belief in the values of democracy and self-determination, making "Imperialism" both a timely and timeless discourse on national identity. This book is essential for readers seeking to understand the moral and ethical landscapes of American history. Whether you are a scholar of American Studies or a curious reader, Adams' compelling arguments and rich prose will provoke thoughtful reflection on the legacy of imperialism and its significance in shaping contemporary society.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Complete Memoirs of Benjamin Franklin (Volume I & II) - Get a Glimpse into the Mind of one of America's Greatest Forefathers. In his Own Words.【電子書籍】[ Benjamin Franklin ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<div> The complete 2 volume Memoirs of Benjamin Franklin, gives the reader insight on the thoughts of one of America’s Greatest Fore-father. </div> <div> <br /> When Benjamin was 15 his brother started The New England Courant the first "newspaper" in Boston. <br /> Before long the Franklins found themselves at odds with Boston's powerful Puritan preachers </div> <div> <br /> Ben could not take it and decided to run away in 1723. </div> <div> <br /> Running away was illegal. Regardless Ben took a boat to New York where he hoped to find work as a printer. <br /> Franklin found work as an apprentice printer. Franklin tried his hand at helping to run a shop, but soon went back to being a printer's helper. Franklin was a better printer than the man he was working for, so he borrowed some money and set himself up in the printing business. Franklin seemed to work all the time, and the citizens of Philadelphia began to notice the diligent young businessman. Soon he began getting the contract to do government jobs and started thriving in business. </div> <div> <br /> In addition to running a print shop, the Franklins also ran their own store at this time selling everything from soap to fabric. Ben also ran a book store. </div> <div> <br /> Benjamin Franklin bought a newspaper, the Pennsylvania Gazette. Franklin not only printed the paper, but often contributed pieces to the paper under aliases. His newspaper soon became the most successful in the colonies. This newspaper, among other firsts, would print the first political cartoon, authored by Ben himself. <br /> He joined the Masons. He was a very busy man socially. </div> <div> <br /> But Franklin thrived on work. In 1733 he started publishing Poor Richard's Almanac. Many of the famous phrases associated with Franklin, such as, "A penny saved is a penny earned" come from Poor Richard. <br /> Franklin continued his civic contributions during the 1730s and 1740s. He helped launch projects to pave, clean and light Philadelphia's streets. </div> <div> <br /> Fires were very dangerous threat to Philadelphians, so Franklin set about trying to remedy the situation, he organized Philadelphia's Union Fire Company, the first in the city. His famous saying, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," was actually fire-fighting advice. </div> <div> <br /> Those who suffered fire damage to their homes often suffered irreversible economic loss. So Franklin helped to found the Philadelphia Contribution for Insurance Against Loss by Fire. Those with insurance policies were not wiped out financially. </div> <div> <br /> By 1749 he retired from business and started concentrating on science, experiments, and inventions. This was nothing new to Franklin. In 1743, he had already invented a heat-efficient stove ー called the Franklin stove ー to help warm houses efficiently. </div> <div> <br /> Among Franklin's other inventions are swim fins, the glass armonica and bifocals. <br /> In the early 1750's he turned to the study of electricity. His observations, including his kite experiment which verified the nature of electricity and lightning brought Franklin international fame. </div> <div> <br /> Politics became more of an active interest for Franklin in the 1750s. </div> <div> <br /> He started working actively for American Independence. He naturally thought his son William, now the Royal governor of New Jersey, would agree with his views. William did not. William remained a Loyal Englishman. This caused a rift between father and son which was never healed. </div> <div> <br /> Franklin was elected to the Second Continental Congress and worked on a committee of five that helped to draft the Declaration of Independence. Though much of the writing is Thomas Jefferson's, much of the contribution is Franklin's. </div> <div> <br /> In 1776 Franklin signed the Declaration, and afterward sailed to France as an ambassador to the Court of Louis XVI. <br /> The French loved Franklin. He was the man who had tamed lightning, the humble American who dressed like a backwoodsman but was a match for any wit in the world. </div>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>The Constitution is likely to be well administered for a course of years and can only end in despotism as other forms have done before when the people have become so corrupted as to need despotic government, being incapable of any other.</p> <p>--Benjamin Franklin (September 17, 1787)</p> <p>The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge natural to party dissension...is itself a frightful despotism. The disorders and miseries which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual...on the ruins of public liberty.</p> <p>--George Washington (September 19, 1796)</p> <p>If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher.

Forefathers' Eve【電子書籍】[ Adam Mickiewicz ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Forefathers’ Eve [Dziady] is a four-part dramatic work begun circa 1820 and completed in 1832 ? with Part I published only after the poet’s death, in 1860. The drama's title refers to Dziady, an ancient Slavic and Lithuanian feast commemorating the dead. This is the grand work of Polish literature, and it is one that elevates Mickiewicz to a position among the “great Europeans” such as Dante and Goethe.</p> <p>With its Christian background of the Communion of the Saints, revenant spirits, and the interpenetration of the worlds of time and eternity, Forefathers’ Eve speaks to men and women of all times and places. While it is a truly Polish work ? Polish actors covet the role of Gustaw/Konrad in the same way that Anglophone actors covet that of Hamlet ? it is one of the most universal works of literature written during the nineteenth century. It has been compared to Goethe’s Faust ? and rightfully so. Forefathers’ Eve initiated the great contribution of Poland to world theatre: Monumental Drama, which stretches from him through Stanis?aw Wyspia?ski to Tadeusz Kantor in our own day and age.</p> <p>The present translation of Adam Mickiewicz’s Forefathers’ Eve is the first complete verse translation of the cycle published in English. It has been put to use in its entirety by the Teatr Polski in Wroc?aw, and partially set to music by Arturas Bum?teinas in his contemporary orchestral work Different Trains (2014).</p> <p>Translated by Charles S. Kraszewski.</p> <p>Charles S. Kraszewski (b. 1962) is a poet, translator and literary critic. He has published three volumes of original verse: Beast (Alexandria, 2013), Diet of Nails (Boston, 2013) and Chanameed (Atlanta, 2015). Among his critical works is Irresolute Heresiarch: Catholicism, Gnosticism and Paganism in the Poetry of Czes?aw Mi?osz (Newcastle-on-Tyne, 2012); many of his verse translations are collected in the volume Rossetti’s Armadillo (Newcastle-on-Tyne, 2014).</p> <p>This book was published with the support of the Hanna and Zdzislaw Broncel Charitable Trust.</p> <p>This book has been published with the support of the ?POLAND Translation Program.</p> <p>Maxim Hodak - Максим Ходак (Publisher),</p> <p>Max Mendor - Макс Мендор.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Forefathers (Ram Ravan Saga)【電子書籍】[ Sulabh Agnohotri ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The story of Rama is deeply ingrained in the minds of the people of India. In my story, Ravan is not a villain. It is rather a story of the clash of two cultures. In part-I, the readers will meet the characters of Ramayan. However, the introduction of the characters is much more elaborate than we normally know. For example, Ravan's clan has been started from Sumali, but cursory information on the forefathers of Rakshas culture Heti and Praheti has also been given. Likewise, an attempt has been made to present a sketch of the three marriages of Dashrath and his sub-wives as well. The episode of the birth of Bali and Sugreev and their upbringing by Gautam and Ahalya and their becoming the adopted sons of the monkey Raja (King) Riksharaj and likewise, the marriage of Kesri and Anjana and then the birth of Hanuman have been logically presented. Similarly, the affair between Ravan and Vedvati leading to the birth of Sita has also been sketched. This volume ends with the birth of Sita.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Norse Mythology or the Religion of Our Forefathers Containing All the Myths of the Eddas【電子書籍】[ R. R. Anderson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>I think Scandinavian Paganism, to us here, is more interesting than any other. It is, for one thing, the latest it continued in these regions of Europe till the eleventh century eight hundred years ago the Norwegians were still worshipers of Odin. It is interesting also as the creed of our fathers the men whose blood still runs in our veins, whom doubtless we still resemble in so many ways. Strange: they did believe that, while we believe so differently. Let us look a little at this poor Norse creed, for many reasons. We have tolerable means to do it; for there is another point of interest in these Scandinavian mythologies: that they have been preserved so well. Neither is there no use in knowing something about this old Paganism of our fathers. Unconsciously, and combined with higher things, it is in us yet, that old faith withal. To know it consciously brings us into closer and clearer relations with the past, - with our own possessions in the past. For the whole past, as I keep repeating, is the position of the present. The past had always something true, and is a precious possession. In a different time, in a different place, it is always some other true of our common human nature that, has been developing Itself.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Acting Governor Ebenezer Butler must move faster to avert an inter-tribal conflict, an attack on the colony and halting the British and French encroachment on lands claimed by the colony.

The Tombs of Forefathers Neolithic Long Barrows in Ritual Landscapes【電子書籍】[ Jan Turek ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>This analysis of Neolithic long barrows in Bohemia uncovers new insights into their construction, significance, and role in spiritual traditions.</strong></p> <p>Neolithic long barrows in Bohemia were long neglected by archaeologists due to their destruction by modern intensive agricultural activity. This new analysis, resulting from a three-year interdisciplinary research project, of the phenomenon of Neolithic long barrows in Bohemia and Central Europe presents entirely new findings and data and tackles a number of previously unresolved questions. New discoveries, based primarily on remote sensing and targeted excavations, together with the revision of earlier archaeological records, allow us to define more accurately the construction and chronological development of these monuments, and to advance our knowledge of the southeastern boundary of this phenomenon's spread together with reconstruction of the social and religious significance of these monuments for the agricultural communities of Central Europe.</p> <p>At the sacred places defined by the long barrows, ceremonies and rituals took place over millennia that confirmed the cohesion of the living with the ancestors and their faith in the gods. People, even many generations later, continued to venerate these ancient monuments, not as places of final rest for their direct ancestors but as places dedicated to mythical time, where the living meet the dead and honour the gods. It is not surprising, therefore, that people added the burials of their own ancestors to the embankments of ancient barrows and established their own funerary areas nearby even after several millennia.</p> <p>All long barrows excavated within our project contained only one primary burial: in Bohemia these were not collective graves as found, for example, in the British Isles or Scandinavia. Given the monumentality of barrow construction, it can be presumed that the buried individuals represented a form of social elite, though not necessarily due to their individual social power. It seems that the primary burial played the role of an initiation <em>sacrifice</em>: a ritual of consecration of the ancestor sanctuary, which then no longer served for further burials that may have been taboo. Subsequent activities may have been related to forms of ancestral cult, but the primary burial was not followed by other funerary events. All evidence of later burials is at least 1000 years later than barrow construction.</p> <p>In the region around the Czech mythical Mountain ??p, burial monuments from various prehistoric periods, including the Late Neolithic, abound. Residential and economic activities on the plains appear later. It can be assumed that this area was perceived as a ritual landscape in earlier prehistory in which long barrows played a significant role in structuring the farming landscape and as significant landmarks. Their monumentality initiated a long-standing tradition creating palimpsests of funerary and sacred sites near Mount ??p. The places where the long barrows were built played an important role in the lives of prehistoric communities, and their placement and orientation in the landscape was not random, indicating significant symbolic connotations with the surrounding landscape. The rituals and festivities held here allowed people to connect with the spiritual legacy of their ancestors, thus creating a significant spiritual tradition inscribed in the agriculturally colonised landscape.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Norse mythology or, The religion of our Forefathers, containing all the Myths of the Eddas, systematized and interpreted with Introduction and Vocabulary【電子書籍】[ Rasmus Bj?rn Anderson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>"I think Scandinavian Paganism, to us here, is more interesting than any other."- Thomas Carlyle.</p> <p>Highly detailed, this book constitutes a veritable encyclopedia of Norse mythology, including descriptions of notable characters: Odin, Thor, Balder, Loke... The object of this work is to familiarize readers with the myths and legends which form the principal subjects of Nordic literature, and whose influence is everywhere apparent in the subsequent history of literature and art.</p> <p>It begins with a large introduction (<em>What is mythology and what is Norse mythology?/ Why call this mythology Norse? Ought it not rather to be called Gothic or Teutonic? / Norse mythology compared with the Greek</em>...) We need to know more about the Myths of the Norsemen... here is the very book to illumine, and, by its very beauty, to imbue its readers with an appreciation of that gospel of the beautiful which these ancient myths inculcate.</p> <p>This large print edition contains numerous notes and a useful vocabulary. For ease of consultation, the text is followed by a detailed table of contents.</p> <p><strong>Excerpt</strong>: What we claim for this work is, that it is the <em>first complete and systematic presentation of the Norse mythology in the English language</em>; and this we think is a sufficient reason for our asking a humble place upon your book-shelves. And, while we make this claim, we fully appreciate the value of the many excellent treatises and translations that have appeared on this subject in England. We do not undervalue the labors of Dasent, Thorpe, Pigott, Carlyle, etc., but none of these give a comprehensive account of all the deities and the myths in full. There is, indeed, no work outside of Scandinavia that covers the whole ground.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Our Forefathers Truly Appealed to Heaven【電子書籍】[ Lyle Rapacki ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Our Forefathers Truly Appealed to Heaven is a wonderfully quick reading view of the influence God played in the founding of America and our principles. The men who sat in Independence Hall, debated, and formed our exceptional nation would not consider themselves heroes but men placed in extraordinary circumstances that required extraordinary cooperation with what God was calling them to accomplish. Today in America, we need an army of such men and women willing to submit (cooperate) with the founding principles, not the present-day diluting and erasing taking place. We need people to stand for truth as servant leaders with great humility and grace and with great courage and conviction to defend the documents and ideals that made this nation exceptional. We need ordinary heroes who are willing to pay the price, demonstrating obedience to the Lord's ways, not man's, and to serve with sincere joy and thanksgiving for what He has done in them, and for our country.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Americana Ebrietatis," Hewson L. Peeke delves into the multifaceted relationship between American culture and alcohol, presenting a nuanced examination of justification and indulgence in drinking practices throughout U.S. history. Written with a keen analytical lens, Peeke employs a blend of narrative storytelling and rigorous scholarly critique, weaving together historical anecdotes, cultural commentary, and sociological theories. The book navigates both the revelatory and destructive implications of alcohol consumption, contextualizing it within the broader tapestry of American identity and aspiration'??examining how intoxication has influenced art, politics, and communal behavior across decades. Hewson L. Peeke, an accomplished scholar in American Studies, draws from his extensive research background and personal narratives to inform his exploration of alcohol's role in society. His work often reflects a deep-seated interest in the sociopolitical dynamics of American life, stemming from his formative experiences in academic circles that emphasized the interplay of culture and substance. Drawing on interdisciplinary methodologies, Peeke offers a thought-provoking lens through which readers can explore the complexities of indulgence and its repercussions. "Americana Ebrietatis" is a compelling read that invites not only scholars of American history but also casual readers to reflect on the enduring impact of drinking in the nation'??s psyche. This book stands as an essential contribution to contemporary discussions on public health, cultural practices, and the ambivalent nature of freedom in the American experience.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Old Time Wall Papers: An Account of the Pictorial Papers on Our Forefathers' Walls with a Study of the Historical Development of Wall Paper Making and Decoration【電子書籍】[ Kate Sanborn ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>IF a book has ever been written on this subject it has been impossible to discover; and to get reliable facts for a history of the origin and development of the art of making wall-papers has been a serious task, although the result seems scanty and superficial. Some friends may wonder at the lack of fascinating bits of gossip, stories of rosy romance and somber tragedy in connection with these papers. But those who chatted, danced, flirted, wept or plotted in the old rooms are long since dust, and although the "very walls have ears" they have not the gift of speech. But my collection of photographs is something entirely unique and will increase in value every year. The numerous photographers, to whom I have never appealed in vain, are regarded by me as not only a skillful but a saintly class of men. I am greatly indebted to Miss Mary M. Brooks of Salem and Miss Mary H. Buckingham of Boston for professional assistance. Many others have most kindly helped me by offers of photographs and interesting facts concerning the papers and their histories. But I am especially indebted to Mrs. Frederick C. Bursch, who has given much of her time to patient research, to the verification or correction of doubtful statements, and has accomplished a difficult task in arranging and describing the photographs. Without her enthusiastic and skillful assistance, my collection and text would have lacked method and finish. To the many, both acquaintances and strangers, who have volunteered assistance and have encouraged when discouragement was imminent, sending bracing letters and new-old pictures, I can only quote with heartfelt thanks the closing lines of the verse written by Foote, the English actor, to be posted conspicuously to attract an audience to his benefit.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Norse Mythology: The Religion of our Forefathers, Containing all the Myths of the Eddas, Systematized and Interpreted【電子書籍】[ Rasmus Bj?rn Anderson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The word mythology (μυθολογ?α, from μθο?, word, tale, fable, and λ?γοc, speech, discourse,) is of Greek origin, and our vernacular tongue has become so adulterated with Latin and Greek words; we have studied Latin and Greek in place of English, Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Gothic so long that we are always in a quandary (qu’en dirai-je?), always tongue-tied when we attempt to speak of something outside or above the daily returning cares of life. Our own good old English words have been crowded out by foreign ones; this is our besetting sin. But, as the venerable Professor George Stephens remarks in his elaborate work on Runic Monuments, we have watered our mother tongue long enough with bastard Latin; let us now brace and steel it with the life-water of our own sweet and soft and rich and shining and clear-ringing and manly and world-ranging, ever-dearest English. Mythology is a system of myths; a collection of popular legends, fables, tales, or stories, relating to the gods, heroes, demons or other beings whose names have been preserved in popular belief. Such tales are not found in the traditions of the ancient Greeks, Hindoos and Egyptians, only, but every nation has had its system of mythology; and that of the ancient Norsemen is more simple, earnest, miraculous, stupendous and divine than any other mythological system of which we have record. The myth is the oldest form of truth; and mythology is the knowledge which the ancients had of the Divine. The object of mythology is to find God and come to him. Without a written revelation this may be done in two ways: either by studying the intellectual, moral and physical nature of man, for evidence of the existence of God may be found in the proper study of man; or by studying nature in the outward world in its general structure, adaptations and dependencies; and truthfully it may be said that God manifests himself in nature.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Perfect Hell The True Story of the Black Devils, the Forefathers of the Special Forces【電子書籍】[ John Nadler ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>It’s 1942 and Hitler’s armies stand astride Europe like a colossus. Germany is winning on every front. This is the story of how one of the world’s first commando units, put together for the invasion of Norway, helped turn the tide in Italy.</p> <p><strong>1942</strong>. When the British generals recommend an audacious plan to parachute a small elite commando unit into Norway in a bid to put Nazi Germany on the defensive, Winston Churchill is intrigued. But Britain, fighting for its life, can’t spare the manpower to participate. So William Lyon MacKenzie King is contacted and asked to commit Canadian troops to the bold plan. King, determined to join Roosevelt and Churchill as an equal leader in the Allied war effort, agrees.</p> <p>One of the world’s first commando units, the First Special Service Force, or FSSF, is assembled from hand-picked soldiers from Canadian and American regiments. Any troops sent into Norway will have to be rugged, self-sufficient, brave, and weather-hardened. Canada has such men in ample supply.</p> <p>The all-volunteer FSSF comprises outdoorsmen ー trappers, rangers, prospectors, miners, loggers. Assembled at an isolated base in Helena, Montana, and given only five months to train before the invasion, they are schooled in parachuting, mountain climbing, cross-country skiing, and cold-weather survival. They are taught how to handle explosives, how to operate nearly every field weapon in the American and German arsenals, and how to kill with their bare hands.</p> <p>After the Norway plan is scrapped, the FSSF is dispatched to Italy and given its first test ー to seize a key German mountain-top position which had repelled the brunt of the Allied armies for over a month. In a reprise of the audacity and careful planning that won Vimy Ridge for the Canadians in WWI, the FSSF takes the twin peaks Monte la Difensa and Monte la Remetanea by storming the supposedly unscalable rock face at the rear of the German position, and opens the way through the mountains.</p> <p>Later, the FSSF will hold one-quarter of the Anzio beachhead against a vastly superior German force for ninety-nine days; a force of only 1,200 commandos does the work of a full division of over 17,000 troops. Though badly outnumbered, the FSSF takes the fight to the Germans, sending nighttime patrols behind enemy lines and taking prisoners. It is here that they come to be known among the dispirited Germans as Schwartzer Teufel (“Black Devils”) for their black camouflage face-paint and their terrifying tactic of appearing out of the darkness.</p> <p>John Nadler vividly captures the savagery of the Italian campaign, fought as it was at close quarters and with desperate resolve, and the deeply human experiences of the individual men called upon to fight it. Based on extensive archival research and interviews with veterans, <strong>A Perfect Hell</strong> is an important contribution to Canadian military history and an indispensable account of the lives and battlefield exploits of the men who turned the tide of the Second World War.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Da Babilonia a Sibari - From Babylon to Sybaris Popoli e genti da cui veniamo / Peoples and populations: our forefathers【電子書籍】[ Arcangelo Mafrici ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Talvolta si ritiene che la civilt? occidentale abbia avuto origine nel Mediterraneo: in Grecia e, poi, a Roma: non ? cos?. E si stupisce chi scopre che la nostra storia comincia 3000 anni prima della nascita di Cristo, nel territorio della Mesopotamia, tra i fiumi Tigri ed Eufrate, e che quel territorio coincide con l'attuale Iraq e con le aree vicine. Arcangelo Mafrici ha pubblicato per i nostri tipi: Antologia, Fra memoria e attesa, Globalizzazione agricola e libert? di mercato, Gli animali raccontano, L'Universo e l'atomo, Magia del mito greco. ? stato ideatore e coautore de La Confagricoltura nella storia d'Italia (Il Mulino). Ha presieduto e diretto organismi economici e organizzazioni di impresa, nazionali e locali. ? stato direttore generale della Confagricoltura e consigliere del CNEL (Consiglio Nazionale dell'Economia e del Lavoro). Da sempre cultore di storia, letteratura e attualit? scientifica. We sometimes think Arcangelo Mafrici that western civilization started in the Mediterranean: in Greece and then in Rome. It didn't. We are amazed when we discover that our history started 3000 years before the birth of Christ, in Mesopotamia, between the Tigris and the Euphrates, an area now occupied by Iraq and neighbouring countries. Arcangelo Mafrici has published in our collections: Antologia, fra memoria e attesa, Globalizzazione agricola e libert? di mercato, Gli animali raccontano, L'Universo e l'atomo, Magia del mito greco. He is the planner and co-author of La Confagricoltura nella storia d'Italia (Il Mulino). He has chaired and directed economic bodies and national and regional enterprises.

Our Pilgrim Forefathers Thanksgiving Studies【電子書籍】[ Thiwat Piyasupkij ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>Example in this ebook</strong></p> <p>You often hear people talking of the President of our country. Doubtless most of you know him by name. Some of you may have seen him.<br /> You also know that once in every four years we have an election day, when papa votes for the man whom he thinks best for President. Then the one who gets the most votes becomes our President for four years.<br /> If this man makes a good President, he is sometimes chosen again for another four years, or term, as we call it. But if he has not pleased the people, they choose some one else, anybody else, next election day. We never know who will be our next President until he is elected. One term he is a man from one part of the country; the next term he may be one from a far distant part. In our country we think that this way is best.<br /> It is not so in every country. In some countries, instead of a president there is a king, who expects to be king as long as he lives. At his death his son becomes the king. If the king happens to be a good one, it is well for the country and for the people; but if he chances to be a wicked, cruel one, the poor people have a sorry time as long as he lives.<br /> When Sunday comes, John goes with his mamma and papa to the Methodist Church. Perhaps Mary goes with her parents to the Baptist. Gretchen may prefer to go to the Lutheran Church, and Margaret to the Roman Catholic. In our country we think this quite right. We like to see people going to the church that helps them most.<br /> As it costs much money to build churches and pay the preachers, people must give money or there can be no churches. John may want to give his pennies to the Methodist Church or Sunday-school. Mary would rather give hers to the Baptist. Gretchen’s money is given to the Lutheran, and Margaret’s to the Roman Catholic. In our country we think this, too, quite right. No one forces us to give money to any church. When we have any to give, we may do with it as we choose.<br /> Neither is this true in all countries. In some lands where there are kings instead of presidents, the kings have sometimes said that all the people must go to a certain church, and that they must pay that church money. Some of the kings have forbidden the people to have any other churches.<br /> Sometimes there have been people who loved another church which they were unwilling to give up. Sometimes there have been kings who have put these people in prison and done other harsh things in trying to force them to worship God according to the king’s will.<br /> We shall learn of some unhappy people who lived in a country ruled at times by just such hard-hearted kings. When we know of some of the troubles and great hardships through which they passed in trying to pray to God and serve him as they thought right, we shall surely love them and always remember their noble deeds.<br /> These people lived far across the Atlantic Ocean, in a country called England, where the king and all the people speak the English language. We learned our English from them.</p> <p><strong>To be continue in this ebook</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
