Ethan Allen: His Life and Times【電子書籍】[ Willard Sterne Randall ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The long-awaited biography of the frontier Founding Father whose heroic actions and neglected writings inspired an entire generation from Paine to Madison.</strong></p> <p>On May 10, 1775, in the storm-tossed hours after midnight, Ethan Allen, the Revolutionary firebrand, was poised for attack. With only two boatloads of his scraggly band of Vermont volunteers having made it across the wind-whipped waters of Lake Champlain, he was waiting for the rest of his Green Mountain boys to arrive. But with the protective darkness quickly fading, Allen determined that he hold off no longer.</p> <p>While Ethan Allen, a canonical hero of the American Revolution, has always been defined by his daring, predawn attack on the British-controlled Fort Ticonderoga, Willard Sterne Randall, the author of <em>Benedict Arnold</em>, now challenges our conventional understanding of this largely unexamined Founding Father. Widening the scope of his inquiry beyond the Revolutionary War, Randall traces Allen’s beginning back to his modest origins in Connecticut, where he was born in 1738. Largely self-educated, emerging from a relatively impoverished background, Allen demonstrated his deeply rebellious nature early on through his attraction to Deism, his dramatic defense of smallpox vaccinations, and his early support of separation of church and state.</p> <p>Chronicling Allen’s upward struggle from precocious, if not unruly, adolescent to commander of the largest American paramilitary force on the eve of the Revolution, Randall unlocks a trove of new source material, particularly evident in his gripping portrait of Allen as a British prisoner-of-war. While the biography reacquaints readers with the familiar details of Allen’s lifeーhis capture during the aborted American invasion of Canada, his philosophical works that influenced Thomas Paine, his seminal role in gaining Vermont statehood, his stirring funeral in 1789ーRandall documents that so much of what we know of Allen is mere myth, historical folklore that people have handed down, as if Allen were Paul Bunyan.</p> <p>As Randall reveals, Ethan Allen, a so-called Robin Hood in the eyes of his dispossessed Green Mountain settlers, aggrandized, and unabashedly so, the holdings of his own family, a fact that is glossed over in previous accounts, embellishing his own best-selling prisoner-of-war narrative as well. He emerges not only as a public-spirited leader but as a self-interested individual, often no less rapacious than his archenemies, the New York land barons of the Hudson and Mohawk Valleys.</p> <p>As John E. Ferling comments, “Randall has stripped away the myths to provide as accurate an account of Allen’s life as will ever be written.” The keen insights that he produces shed new light, not only on this most enigmatic of Founding Fathers, but on today’s descendants of the Green Mountain Boys, whose own political disenfranchisement resonates now more than ever.</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。 2,024円

Taming the Wild Field Colonization and Empire on the Russian Steppe【電子書籍】[ Willard Sunderland ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Stretching from the tributaries of the Danube to the Urals and from the Russian forests to the Black and Caspian seas, the vast European steppe has for centuries played very different roles in the Russian imagination. To the Grand Princes of Kiev and Muscovy, it was the "wild field," a region inhabited by nomadic Turko-Mongolic peoples who repeatedly threatened the fragile Slavic settlements to the north. For the emperors and empresses of imperial Russia, it was a land of boundless economic promise and a marker of national cultural prowess. By the mid-nineteenth century the steppe, once so alien and threatening, had emerged as an essential, if complicated, symbol of Russia itself.</p> <p>Traversing a thousand years of the region's history, Willard Sunderland recounts the complex process of Russian expansion and colonization, stressing the way outsider settlement at once created the steppe as a region of empire and was itself constantly changing. The story is populated by a colorful array of administrators, Cossack adventurers, Orthodox missionaries, geographers, foreign entrepreneurs, peasants, and (by the late nineteenth century) tourists and conservationists. Sunderland's approach to history is comparative throughout, and his comparisons of the steppe with the North American case are especially telling. <em>Taming the Wild Field</em> eloquently expresses concern with the fate of the world's great grasslands, and the book ends at the beginning of the twentieth century with the initiation of a conservation movement in Russia by those appalled at the high environmental cost of expansion.</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。 1,362円

Why It's OK to Enjoy the Work of Immoral Artists【電子書籍】[ Mary Beth Willard ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The #metoo movement has forced many fans to consider what they should do when they learn that a beloved artist has acted immorally. One natural thought is that fans ought to give up the artworks of immoral artists. In <em>Why It’s OK to Enjoy the Work of Immoral Artists</em>, Mary Beth Willard argues for a more nuanced view. Enjoying art is part of a well-lived life, so we need good reasons to give it up.</p> <p>And it turns out good reasons are hard to find. Willard shows that it’s reasonable to believe that most boycotts of artists won’t succeed, so most of the time there’s no ethical reason to join in. Someone who manages to separate the art from the artist isn’t making an ethical mistake by buying and enjoying their art. She then considers the ethical dimensions of canceling artists and the so-called "cancel culture," arguing that canceling is ethically risky because it encourages moral grandstanding. Willard concludes by arguing that the popular debate has overlooked the power of art to change our lives for the good.</p> <p>It’s of course OK to decide to give up the artwork of immoral artists, but ? as Willard shows in this provocative little volume ? it’s OK to continue to enjoy their art as well.</p> <p>Key Features</p> <ul> <li></li> <li>Offers accessible discussions of complicated philosophical topics like aesthetic value, collective action problems, and epistemic justice</li> <li></li> <li>Provides a unique perspective and underexplored argument on the popular issue of cancellation</li> <li></li> <li>Explores the role of aesthetic value in our lives, including its relation to our ethical decisions and our well being</li> </ul>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。 3,599円

The Feuds of Zil【電子書籍】[ Lee Willard ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Among the phantasmagorical erosion of the Zil escarpment is one of the most remote and primitive societies on the planet of Kassidor with literacy and a semblance of civilization not arriving til the 50th century. Here we find people still living in caves and still hunting dangerous beasts as a way of life. It is one of the few places remaining on the planet with organized conflict between villages, or between any groups of people. The Instinct may prevent violence between people, but it does not prevent people from one village from vandalizing the public works or crops of another. Each attack has been launched in retaliation for the last for so long that no one remembers what actually started it.</p> <p>When a madman figures out a way to defeat the Instinct and destroy the entire rival village, Dorrick and TongSu become involved when the balloon becomes a key element in saving that village.</p> <p>It has always been assumed that one’s sexual orientation is fixed and determined by genetics. This is almost completely true for ephemerals who live only twenty decades and who’s genetics are fixed at birth. When sex is no longer reproduction but conjugation, due to the Species Immunity Complex, one’s genetics are no longer fixed. When life is long enough that no one remembers how they got together with their partner or why, the meaning of ‘forever’ is different than the ‘forever’ we pledge at marriage.</p> <p>When this happens to a lesbian/bisexual couple in the village where they are staying, Dorrick and TongSu become involved when one partner asks for a balloon ride out of the area and the other decides TongSu is the new object of her desire.</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。 147円

The Press at Honaseka【電子書籍】[ Lee Willard ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In an ancient land that thought of itself as the ‘Known World’ until recently, there lies a group of cities only a day’s hike from one another that are the cultural melting pot of this ‘known world.’ Thru most of it's history few paid any attention to the outside world. Then, two centuries ago this area was discovered by an outside group, a civilization of Elves with many advances in technology. They brought advanced crops that banished hunger until the population grew. They brought advanced medicines that allowed those with the means to overcome diseases that had taken many in former ages and allowed them to enhance their beauty and strength. They brought machines that could record music, machines that could paint pictures incredibly lifelike and detailed, machines that could communicate over vast distances nearly instantaneously.<br /> But two of the boons they brought have been especially disruptive to the cultures of the 'Known World'. One was extended youth. At first the medicines that extended youth were very expensive so that only the wealthiest could afford them. At first they were secret so very few knew of them. As time went on, the price came down and more of the population knew of them and could take advantage of them, with the result that cheating old age and death is no longer secret.<br /> The second great change was a plague that made people sterile. At first the sterility plague was distant. It is spread only by exchange of bodily fluids, most thought it was spread only by sexual union. As we will witness, the plague has now reached the area where the people we will observe lived. For seven generations the poor have known that the wealthy live on. They resented it, and there was often trouble, but their preachers tell them that living on is a sin that keeps the ageless from their reward in the afterlife. Until now they've always lived on thru their children but today the plague is ending all that. The generation that will have no one to care for them in their old age is already born, and all the resentments, both social and religious, are coming to a head.<br /> When we of Earth get to this point in biological science, let us hope that we come thru it as cleanly and easily as we see in this story. There is no doubt that the treatments will be only for the privileged and secret for quite some time. We will probably never know when they become available to the elites of Earth but already many parts of this have been kept from us. A cure for grey hair exists today, but Clairol has bought the American rights and does not allow it to be imported to this country. Telomere treatments have been researched, but news of them has already been suppressed.<br /> In this story we see how the transition from ephemeral to eternal was made in one of the most backward areas of Kassidor, and one of only two where there was a long delay in bringing the benefits to nearly all of society. We follow the lives of six people thru the forty years when that transition occurred, 11ad. To 51ad. Two of them have made the transition long ago, three are affluent enough that they knew they would live on even when they were young and one of them longed to stay young but was too poor to ever suspect he would make it.</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。 756円

Pieces of Me【電子書籍】[ Lee Willard ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Memory fades with time. Ephemeral humans remember few details of their childhood when they are old. When people live many centuries, nothing of their earlier lives remains. When this story takes place, it is two centuries since someone marketed an enhancement to memory that improved capacity and length by a factor of one hundred, allowing those who use it to remember clearly for centuries.<br /> Memory is a powerful thing. One with it can put one without it at a disadvantage. Sudden recall can be staggering in the right time and place. When this story takes place (941ad.). it has been four centuries since a drug was available that allows one to recall the past so vividly they live in it, and suddenly remember all the details they remembered at the time.<br /> In this story we follow the adventures of Taron, who has enhanced memory but suffers flashbacks that bring her into the past as a side effect; and Deneb, who has not enhanced his memory so he can’t remember the times they shared. But neither of them remembers the secret they share, a secret that puts them in danger today.<br /> This story happens in Kassidor's 45th century, just before the Instinct reaches the Norbin basin so there is the possibility of violence. The flashbacks take us to the 35th century when violence was almost as common as on Earth today. The 45th century is also before the suntowers so there is less communication with other parts of the planet and many areas were unknown to each other. In many other ways the 45th century was modern. There was amplified and recorded music, grown housing and many other things that made the world, and Norbin in particular, look a lot like it does today.<br /> The memory problems of eternal youth are real, and this story explores a few of them. The main one Deneb and Taron came up against is something many will face when aging is cured, probably just as unknowingly as the characters in this tale. When eternal youth is possible, society will face the same problem Norbin did in the 35th century, and we will go thru the same trouble they went thru. We may already be starting it now because we can all be VERY sure that the cure will be hoarded by the wealthy as it was there.</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。 606円

<p>This edition of the book is unique:<ul> <li>formatting improvements (beautifully formatted, easy to read, and the font can be easily enlarged);</li> <li>contains rare illustrations and photographs;</li> <li>includes a functional table of contents.</li> </ul></p> <p>“What Nietzsche Taught” is for the beginnerーfor the student who desires a survey of Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy before entering upon a closer and more careful study of it.</p> <p>It is the errors which have arisen from the vicious and inept dissemination of his teachings, that Willard H. Wright has striven to rectify in the present book. The Author has hoped to accomplish this by presenting the whole of Nietzsche’s philosophy, as far as possible, in Nietzsche’s own words. Nietzschean thought developed consistently and logically in straight-away, chronological order so that at the conclusion of each book we find ourselves just so much further along the route of his thinking.</p> <p>The Author has taken Nietzsche’s writings chronologically, beginning with his first bookー“Human, All-Too-Human”ーand has set down every important conclusion throughout the entire works. In this way one may follow Nietzsche throughout every step in the development of his teachingsーnot only in his abstract theories but also in his application of them.</p> <p>The Author has preceded each chapter with a short account of the book and its contents. In these brief essays, each book has been reviewed, set down the circumstances under which it was written, and attempted to weigh its individual importance in relation to the others. “What Nietzsche Taught” draws on the following works:<ul> <li>“Human, All-Too-Human”</li> <li>“The Dawn of Day”</li> <li>“The Joyful Wisdom”</li> <li>“Thus Spake Zarathustra”</li> <li>“The Eternal Recurrence”</li> <li>“Beyond Good and Evil”</li> <li>“The Genealogy of Morals”</li> <li>“The Twilight of the Idols”</li> <li>“The Antichrist”</li> <li>“The Will to Power” Vol. I and II.</li></ul></p> <p>The book also contains the Introduction, Nietzsche’s Biographical Sketch, Bibliography, and the Editor's note “About the Author.”</p> <p><em>It's a gorgeous book.
