Everyone knows Benjamin Franklin was an important statesman, inventor, and a signer of the Declaration of Independence. But did you know he started the first public library in America?Ben Franklin was always a “bookish” boy. The first book he read was the Bible at age five, and then he read every printed word in his father’s small home library. Ben wanted to read more, but books were expensive. He wanted to go to school and learn, but his family needed him to work. Despite this, Ben Franklin had lots of ideas about how to turn his love of reading and learning into something more. First he worked as a printer’s apprentice, then he set up his own printing business. Later, he became the first bookseller in Philadelphia, started a newspaper, published Poor Richard’s Almanac, and in 1731, with the help of his friends, organized the first subscription lending library, the Library Company.Ruth Ashby’s fast-paced biography takes young readers through Franklin’s life from his spirited, rebellious youth through his successful career as an inventor and politician and finally to the last years of his life, surrounded by his personal collection of books.

A revealing biography of Anne Frank, exploring both her life and the impact of her extraordinary diary “With sensitivity and assiduous research, [Franklin] constructs a vivid cultural history that advocates for a reevaluation of Frank.”—New Yorker, “Best Books of the Year” “Trenchant. . . . An essential look at the diarist’s legacy.”—Publishers Weekly In this innovative biography, Ruth Franklin explores the transformation of Anne Frank (1929–1945) from ordinary teenager to icon, shedding new light on the young woman whose diary of her years in hiding, now translated into more than seventy languages, is the most widely read work of literature to arise from the Holocaust.  Comprehensively researched but experimental in spirit, this book chronicles and interprets Anne’s life as a Jew in Amsterdam during World War II while also telling the story of the diary—its multiple drafts, its discovery, its reception, and its message for today’s world. Writing alongside Anne rather than over her, Franklin explores the day-to-day perils of the Holocaust in the Netherlands as well as Anne’s ultimate fate, restoring her humanity and agency in all their messiness, heroism, and complexity.  With antisemitism once again in the news, The Many Lives of Anne Frank takes a ...

In 1845 Captain Sir John Franklin led a large, well equipped expedition to complete the conquest of the Canadian Arctic, to find the fabled North West Passage connecting the North Atlantic to the North Pacific. Yet Franklin, his ships and his men were fated never to return. The cause of their loss remains a mystery. In Franklin, Andrew Lambert presents a gripping account of the worst catastrophe in the history of British exploration, and the dark tales of cannibalism that surround the fate of those involved.Shocked by the disappearance of all 129 officers and men, and sickened by reports of cannibalism, the Victorians re-created Franklin as the brave Christian hero who laid down his life, and those of his men. Later generations have been more sceptical about Franklin and his supposed selfless devotion to duty. But does either view really explain why this outstanding scientific navigator found his ships trapped in pack ice seventy miles from magnetic north?In 2014 Canadian explorers discovered the remains of Franklin''s ship.

The incredible story of Benjamin Franklin’s parting gift to the working-class people of Boston and Philadelphia—a deathbed wager that captures the Founder’s American Dream and his lessons for our current, conflicted age.Benjamin Franklin was not a gambling man. But at the end of his illustrious life, the Founder allowed himself a final wager on the survival of the United States: a gift of two thousand pounds to Boston and Philadelphia, to be lent out to tradesmen over the next two centuries to jump-start their careers. Each loan would be repaid with interest over ten years. If all went according to Franklin’s inventive scheme, the accrued final payout in 1991 would be a windfall. In Benjamin Franklin’s Last Bet, Michael Meyer traces the evolution of these twin funds as they age alongside America itself, bankrolling woodworkers and silversmiths, trade schools and space races. Over time, Franklin’s wager was misused, neglected, and contested—but never wholly extinguished. With charm and inquisitive flair, Meyer shows how Franklin’s stake in the “leather-apron” class remains in play to this day, and offers an inspiring blueprint for prosperity in our modern era of growing wealth disparity and social divisions.

Benjamin Franklin''s writings represent a long career of literary, scientific, and political efforts over a lifetime which extended nearly the entire eighteenth century. Franklin''s achievements range from inventing the lightning rod to publishing Poor Richard''s Almanack to signing the Declaration of Independence. In his own lifetime he knew prominence not only in America but in Britain and France as well. This volume includes Franklin''s reflections on such diverse questions as philosophy and religion, social status, electricity, American national characteristics, war, and the status of women. Nearly sixty years separate the earliest writings from the latest, an interval during which Franklin was continually balancing between the puritan values of his upbringing and the modern American world to which his career served as prologue.

During his 84-year life Benjamin Franklin was America's best scientist, inventor, publisher, business strategist, diplomat, and writer. He was also one of its most practical political thinkers. America's first great publicist, he carefully crafted his own persona, portrayed it in public and polished it for posterity.In this riveting new biography Walter Isaacson provides readers with a full portrait of Franklin's public and private life - his loyal but neglected wife, his bastard son with whom he broke over going to war with England, his endless replacement families and his many amorous, but probably unconsummated, liaisons. But this is not just a biography of Benjamin Franklin but rather a fascinating look at American and European political history at that time. Isaacson examines the run up to the Revolutionary War, the intimate relations between Britain, France and the colonies and the decisive events that led to America's independence.Just as David McCullough brought life to the historic figure of John Adams, Isaacson portrays Franklin in the flesh, showing readers how this radical man helped define America's national character and personality.

During the mid-1980s, a brutal killing spree began in Los Angeles as several women were murdered, having been sexually assaulted and shot in the chest with a .25 calibre gun. The man responsible was Lonnie David Franklin Jr. However, his identity wouldn't be revealed for almost thirty years, by which time he had become one of America's most prolific serial killers. At the time, Los Angeles was a city struggling under the weight of racial inequalities and a crack cocaine epidemic that was sweeping through its most deprived areas. Many in the communities of South Central felt that this caused a lack of interest on the part of the LAPD in properly investigating the these murders. In 2010, Franklin's escape from justice finally came to an end, and he was eventually convicted of the killings of nine women and one teenage girl in 2016, although it is suspected that he could be responsible for killing many, many more.

We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life-daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual.When Man''s Search for Meaning was first published in 1959, it was hailed by Carl Rogers as "one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last fifty years." Now, more than forty years and 4 million copies later, this tribute to hope in the face of unimaginable loss has emerged as a true classic. Man''s Search for Meaning--at once a memoir, a self-help book, and a psychology manual-is the story of psychiatrist Viktor Frankl''s struggle for survival during his three years in Auschwitz and other Nazi concentration camps. Yet rather than "a tale concerned with the great horrors," Frankl focuses in on the "hard fight for existence" waged by "the great army of unknown and unrecorded."

Blessed with enormous talents and the energy and ambition to go with them, Franklin was a statesman, author, inventor, printer, and scientist. He helped draft the Declaration of Independence and later was involved in negotiating the peace treaty with Britain that ended the Revolutionary War. He also invented bifocals, a stove that is still manufactured, a water-harmonica, and the lightning rod. Franklin''s extraordinary range of interests and accomplishments are brilliantly recorded in his Autobiography, considered one of the classics of the genre. Covering his life up to his prewar stay in London as representative of the Pennsylvania Assembly, this charming self-portrait recalls Franklin''s boyhood, his determination to achieve high moral standards, his work as a printer, experiments with electricity, political career, experiences during the French and Indian War, and more.

''Sensitive, moving and finely textured'' Guardian''Fantastic'' Dan SnowFor the great majority of his long life, Benjamin Franklin was a loyal British royalist. In 1757, having made his fortune in Philadelphia and established his fame as a renowned experimental scientist, he crossed the Atlantic to live as a gentleman in the heaving metropolis of London. With just a brief interlude, a house in Craven Street was to be his home until 1775. From there he mixed with both the brilliant and the powerful, whether in London coffee house clubs, at the Royal Society, or on his summer travels around the British Isles and continental Europe. He counted David Hume, Matthew Boulton, Joseph Priestley, Edmund Burke and Erasmus Darwin among his friends, and as an American colonial representative he had access to successive Prime Ministers and even the King.The early 1760s saw Britain''s elevation to global superpower status with victory in the Seven Years War and the succession of the young, active George III.

In the world of ASH, fairies are an older race of people who walk the line between life and death, reality and magic. As orphaned Ash grows up, a servant in her stepmother's home, she begans to realise that her beloved mother, Elinor, was very much in tune with these underworld folk, and that she herself has the power to see them too. Against the sheer misery of her stepmother's cruelty, greed and ambition in preparing her two charmless daughters for presentation at court, and hopefully royal or aristocratic marriage, Ash befriends one of these fairies - a mysterious, handsome man-who grants her wishes and restores hope to Ash's existence, even though she knows there will be a price to pay. But most important of all, she also meets Kaisa, a huntress employed by the king, and it is Kaisa who truly awakens Ash's desires for both love and self-respect... ASH is a fairy tale about possibility and recognizing the opportunities for change. From the deepest grief comes the chance for transformation.

Tato kniha je výsledkem série přednášek, kterou měl autor v letním semestru roku 1966 na Jižní metodistické univerzitě v texaském Dallasu. Ústředním pojmem přednášek je logoterapie – psychoterapie zaměřená na hledání smyslu lidského života. Frankl zde zdůrazňuje systematickou povahu logoterapie, která předpokládá svobodu vůle, vůli ke smyslu a smysl života. Zaměřuje se na konkrétní logoterapeutické techniky a také na aplikační oblasti logoterapie, jež léčí různé typy neuróz. Logoterapie je kladena do kontextu jiných psychoterapeutických škol a závěrečná kapitola knihy se věnuje i jejímu vztahu k teologii. Viktor E. Frankl (1905–1997) byl profesorem neurologie a psychiatrie na Vídeňské univerzitě a profesorem logoterapie na United States International University v Kalifornii a dalších amerických univerzitách. Je tvůrcem tzv. logoterapie a existenciální analýzy jakožto „třetího vídeňského směru psychoterapie“, který se zaměřuje na hledání smyslu v lidském životě. Ve svých knihách Frankl mj. využil své zkušenosti vězně nacistických koncentračních táborů. V Portále vyšly jeho knihy Utrpení z nesmyslnosti života a Teorie a terapie neuróz. Pozor! Kniha Léčba smyslem, vydaná původně anglicky jako The Will to Meaning (1988), vychází česky poprvé.

Jedenásť mesiacov po oslobodení z nacistických koncentračných táborovuskutočnil psychiater a neurológ Viktor E. Frankl vo Viedni sériuverejných prednášok. Profesor Frankl, ktorý sa krátko nato stal známymna celom svete, v nich vysvetlil svoje ústredné myšlienky o zmysle,odolnosti a dôležitosti prijatia života – aj napriek veľmi nepriaznivýmudalostiam. Franklove slová silno rezonujú aj v súčasnosti, keď svet čelíčoraz vážnejším klimatickým a ekologickým hrozbám, prehlbujúcej sasociálnej aj názorovej nerovnosti a veľkej ekonomickej neistote.Autor ponúka zaujímavý pohľad na odporúčanie „žite tak, akobyste dostali druhú šancu“ a odhaľuje svoje základné presvedčenie, žekaždá kríza v sebe zahŕňa príležitosť. Napriek nevýslovným hrôzamkoncentračných táborov Frankl pozorovaním sily svojich spoluväzňovzistil, že vždy je možné „povedať životu áno“. Toto poznanie je hlbokáa nadčasová lekcia pre nás všetkých.

Vůle ke smyslu představuje autorský výbor z Franklových přednášek, které měl mezi lety 1946 a 1980. Jejich základní téma je následující: Člověk je tvor hledající smysl (logos) a poskytnout člověku pomoc v jeho hledání je jedním z úkolů psychoterapie – a to především Franklem koncipované logoterapie. Výbor doplňuje příspěvek Franklovy žačky Elisabeth S. Lukasové o validizaci účinků logoterapie a Logo-test k měření životní smysluplnosti a jejího opaku – existenciální frustrace. Jedná se o jednu z nejznámějších Fraklových knih, která byla v tomto vydání obohacena o stať „Alpinismus a patologie ducha doby“. Viktor E.

Druhá kniha tetralogie Kniha o Ash.Existuje víc než jedna historie světa...V brutální epoše krveprolití a zázraků, kdy temná magie vymazala z oblohy slunce, spočívá osud celé západní Evropy a Afriky - a snad i celého světa - v rukou válečnice jménem Ash.Dosud neporažené legie kartaginské armády plení evropská království. Pod bezslunečným nebem stojí v cestě vizigótským hordám a jejich legendární otrocké generálce Faris osamělé Burgundsko. Hluboko na nepřátelském území se nachází živoucí kamenná modla, vládnoucí děsivou mocí, která musí být zničena, má-li někdo přežít, bytost, která našeptává do duše Ash, vede ji všemi vojenskými taženími, a kterou mohou slyšet právě jen Ash a její nepřítelkyně - její dvojče.Existuje však ještě větší nebezpečí, které číhá v Kartágu, hrozba, která vytvořila kamennou modlu a utvářela život Ash. Cílem jejích vražedných piklů je konečné vyhlazení a vymazání Burgundska z povrchu zemského. Neboť jádrem všeho je Burgundsko - nejbohatší kořist v Evropě a klíč k ovládnutí světa -, klenot, který je cílem kartaginské invaze.Kronika pojednávající o království na zemi, které bylo - a nebylo - a o životě jeho největší válečnice.

Kniha obsahuje přednášky z let 1957–1975, v nichž se jako červená nit táhne otázka člověka po smyslu života. Viktor Frankl je přesvědčen, že utrpení z pocitu hluboké nesmyslnosti a ochromující prázdnoty života je specifickou nemocí naší doby. Vytvořil proto terapeutickou koncepci, s jejíž pomocí toto existenciální vakuum úspěšně léčil. V této knize dává nahlédnout do svého myšlení i praxe a na mnoha příkladech ukazuje, jak se dá utrpení z nesmyslnosti života léčit. „Názory, které profesor Frankl zastává v této a dalších svých knihách, znamenají nejdůležitější přínos pro obor psychoterapie od časů Freuda, Adlera a Junga. A jeho styl je mnohem čtivější.“ (Sir Cyril Burt, předseda British Psychological Society). „Tento svazek je tak zhuštěný, tak prodchnutý žhoucím humanismem, tak bohatý na dokumentaci a jeho kritické postoje jsou tak uvážlivé, že zasluhuje podrobnou četbu stránka co stránka.“ (Annales Médico-psychologiques). Viktor E. Frankl (1905–1997) byl profesorem neurologie a psychiatrie na vídeňské univerzitě a profesorem logoterapie na United States International University v Kalifornii a dalších amerických univerzitách.
