Lawless Republic - Josiah Osgood
''A vivid, visceral and crucial read for our times'' BETTANY HUGHES''Wonderful and insightful'' ADRIAN GOLDSWORTHYThe collapse of law and order in the last years of the Roman Republic told through the rise and fall of its most famous lawyer, Cicero.In its final decades, the Roman Republic was engulfed by crime. Cases of extortion, murder and insurrection gave an ambitious young lawyer named Cicero high-profile opportunities to litigate and forge a reputation as a master debater with a bright political future. In Lawless Republic, leading Roman historian Josiah Osgood recounts the legendary orator''s ascent and fall, and his pivotal role in the republic''s lurch toward autocracy. Cicero''s first appearance in the courts came shortly after the end of a brutal civil war. After leveraging his fame as a lawyer to become a consul, he ruthlessly crushed a coup by suppressing the liberties of Roman citizens. The premiere legal mind of Rome came to argue that the pursuit of a higher justice could sometimes justify sweeping the law aside, laying the groundwork for Roman history''s most famous act of political violence - the assassination of Julius Caesar. Lawless Republic vividly resurrects the spectacle of the courts in the time of Cicero and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Podpora pozitivního chování - Tony Osgood
Kniha Tonyho Osgooda, britského odborníka na problematiku podpory lidí s mentálním postižením a chováním náročným na péči, vychází z metody podpory pozitivního chování (angl. zkratka PBS). Tato metoda představuje komplexní a etický systém, který napomáhá snižovat výskyt náročného chování u dětí a dospělých s hlubším mentálním nebo vývojovým postižením, včetně autismu.Náročné chování je vždy určitou formou komunikace, která z nějakých důvodů nemůže probíhat standardním způsobem. Osgood nabízí řadu strategií a praktických návodů, jak umožnit lidem s mentálním postižením či autismem, aby k prosazení svých potřeb využívali jiné způsoby než náročné chování. Nabízí možnosti a postupy pro různé situace, ať už v rodině, ve škole, či v prostředí sociálních služeb. Osgood vždy doporučuje přístup zaměřený na člověka a zdůrazňuje potřebu zachovat jeho individualitu. Každá kapitola obsahuje otázky k diskusi nebo zamyšlení. Hlavním cílem této knihy je zlepšit kvalitu života všech zúčastněných, jak osob, které podporu potřebují, tak i těch, kteří jim ji mají poskytovat: pečovatelů i rodičů. Tony Osgood pracoval téměř třicet let v oblasti mentálního postižení, autismu, duševního zdraví a tělesného postižení. Působil jako lektor pro mentální a vývojové postižení v Tizard Centre na univerzitě v Kentu. Od roku 2004 do roku 2019 vyučoval jak na bakalářském stupni studia, tak ...

Citizen Bird - Elliot Coues, Mabel Osgood Wright, Elliott Coues
In the late nineteenth century, American bird lovers faced a crisis. Bird species were becoming endangered or even extinct at an alarming rate, and old methods of hunting and collecting specimens accelerated the process. A new conservationist approach to birding was necessary, and it needed to be taught to the next generation of Americans. Thus 1897’s Citizen Bird, the first birding guide for children, was born. A tremendously influential text in the Progressive-era United States, it inspired in a generation of schoolchildren a love of wild birds and the desire to protect them.   Born of a collaboration between naturalist Mabel Osgood Wright, ornithologist Elliott Coues, and bird artist Louis Agassiz Fuertes, the book is vital to the history of birding and the broader study of nineteenth-century American culture and literature. This new edition of Citizen Bird preserves the original book’s 111 drawings and adds explanatory footnotes, supplemental historical material, and a new introduction. More than a century and a quarter after its original publication, Elizabeth Cherry and Meghan Freeman contextualize the book in the tradition and history of birding and discuss the roles of its authors and illustrator in birding history.

Cesta do Babylonu - Josiah Bancroft
Pokud chce Thomas Senlin zachránit svou ženu, musí se z tichého knihomola proměnit v muže činu. Vznešená a prastará babylonská věž je nejúžasnější div světa, sestávající z nesčetných prstencových říší naskládaných na sebe jako vrstvy svatebního dortu. Je světem géniů a tyranů, vzducholodí a parních strojů, neobyčejných zvířat i záhadných vynálezů. A je to také letovisko, kde chce strávit líbánky ředitel malé venkovské školy Thomas Senlin se svou ženou Maryou. Krátce po příjezdu však Thomas manželku ve víru turistů, starousedlíků a podvodníků ztratí. Ve snaze ji najít se vydává na hrdinskou pouť, během které musí překonat řadu nástrah - zradu, pokus o vraždu i namířené hlavně létající pevnosti. První díl knižní série o Thomasi Senlinovi vydal Josiah Bancroft vlastním nákladem. Cesta do Babylonu si navzdory minimální reklamě získala u čtenářů mimořádnou oblibu, a tak v roce 2018 vyšla znovu, tentokrát již v řádném nákladu. Vřelé přijetí si vysloužila i od kritiků a deník The Washington Post ji zařadil mezi pět nejlepších fantasy knih roku 2018.

The Civic Bargain - Brook Manville, Josiah Ober
A powerful case for democracy and how it can adapt and survive—if we want it toIs democracy in trouble, perhaps even dying? Pundits say so, and polls show that most Americans believe that their country’s system of governance is being “tested†or is “under attack.†But is the future of democracy necessarily so dire? In The Civic Bargain, Brook Manville and Josiah Ober push back against the prevailing pessimism about the fate of democracy around the world. Instead of an epitaph for democracy, they offer a guide for democratic renewal, calling on citizens to recommit to a “civic bargain†with one another to guarantee civic rights of freedom, equality, and dignity. That bargain also requires them to fulfill the duties of democratic citizenship: governing themselves with no “boss†except one another, embracing compromise, treating each other as civic friends, and investing in civic education for each rising generation. Manville and Ober trace the long progression toward self-government through four key moments in democracy’s history: Classical Athens, Republican Rome, Great Britain’s constitutional monarchy, and America’s founding. Comparing what worked and what failed in each case, they draw out lessons for how modern democracies can survive and thrive. Manville and Ober show ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Gendered Republic
An authoritative assessment of the early American republic through the lens of gender What does it mean to study early American history through gender? The essays in this collection, written by the best emerging and established historians in the field, bring together women's history with masculinity studies to showcase the transformative impact of gender history on our understanding of the early American republic. In addition to state-of-the-field historiographical overviews, The Gendered Republic features essays that use gender history to suggest new chronological and geographic frameworks, broaden understandings of politics and citizenship, highlight the complexities of intersectional identities, and explore new approaches that center bodies and sexualities. Collectively, the contributors showcase the vibrancy of gender history as a frame of inquiry, revealing how shifting notions of women's and men's roles shaped the lives of people in the early American republic - White, Black, and Indigenous - and how those people, in turn, experienced and redefined gender and, with it, their communities, cultures, laws, families, and nations.

Lawless - Leah Litman
Something is deeply rotten at the Supreme Court. How did we get here and what can we do about it? Crooked Media podcast host Leah Litman shines a light on the unabashed lawlessness embraced by conservative Supreme Court justices and shows us how to fight back. With the gravitas of Joan Biskupic and the irreverence of Elie Mystal, Leah Litman brings her signature wit to the question of what’s gone wrong at One First Street. In Lawless, she argues that the Supreme Court is no longer practicing law; it’s running on vibes. By “vibes,” Litman means legal-ish claims that repackage the politics of conservative grievance and dress them up in robes. Major decisions adopt the language and posture of the law, while in fact displaying a commitment to protecting a single minority: the religious conservatives and Republican officials whose views are no longer shared by a majority of the country. Dahlia Lithwick’s Lady Justice meets Rebecca Traister’s Good and Mad as Litman employs pop culture references and the latest decisions to deliver a funny, zeitgeisty, pulls-no-punches cri de coeur undergirded by impeccable scholarship.

But also, you’ve been crushed by a house. Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett began writing The Republic of Parenthood in the final weeks of her pregnancy.

''At least in The Handmaid''s Tale they value babies, mostly. Not so in the true stories here'' Margaret Atwood ''[A] furious, necessary book'' Sinéad GleesonUntil alarmingly recently, the Catholic Church, acting in concert with the Irish state, operated a network of institutions for the concealment, punishment and exploitation of ''fallen women''. In the Magdalene laundries, girls and women were incarcerated and condemned to servitude. And in the mother-and-baby homes, women who had become pregnant out of wedlock were hidden from view, and in most cases their babies were adopted - sometimes illegally. Mortality rates in these institutions were shockingly high, and the discovery of a mass infant grave at the mother-and-baby home in Tuam made news all over the world. The Irish state has commissioned investigations. But the workings of the institutions and of the culture that underpinned it - a shame-industrial complex - have long been cloaked in secrecy and silence. For countless people, a search for answers continues.

The Republic and The Laws - Marcus Tullius Cicero
`However one defines Man, the same definition applies to us all. This is sufficient proof that there is no essential difference within mankind.'' (Laws l.29-30) Cicero''s The Republic is an impassioned plea for responsible governement written just before the civil war that ended the Roman Republic in a dialogue following Plato. Drawing on Greek political theory, the work embodies the mature reflections of a Roman ex-consul on the nature of political organization, on justice in society, and on the qualities needed in a statesman. Its sequel, The Laws, expounds the influential doctrine of Natural Law, which applies to all mankind, and sets out an ideal code for a reformed Roman Republic, already half in the realm of utopia. This is the first complete English translation of both works for over sixty years and features a lucid Introduction, a Table of Dates, notes on the Roman constitution, and an Index of Names.

A Republic of Equals - Jonathan Rothwell
Why political inequality is to blame for economic and social injusticePolitical equality is the most basic tenet of democracy. Yet in America and other democratic nations, those with political power have special access to markets and public services. A Republic of Equals traces the massive income inequality observed in the United States and other rich democracies to politicized markets and avoidable gaps in opportunity—and explains why they are the root cause of what ails democracy today. In this provocative book, economist Jonathan Rothwell draws on the latest empirical evidence from across the social sciences to demonstrate how rich democracies have allowed racial politics and the interests of those at the top to subordinate justice. He looks at the rise of nationalism in Europe and the United States, revealing how this trend overlaps with racial prejudice and is related to mounting frustration with a political status quo that thrives on income inequality and inefficient markets. But economic differences are by no means inevitable. Differences in group status by race and ethnicity are dynamic and have reversed themselves across continents and within countries. Inequalities persist between races in the United States because Black Americans are denied equal access to markets and public ... Unknown localization key: "more"
