Classical World: All That Matters

By: Alastair Blanshard

Modern Western European culture would have been impossible without the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome. The disciplines of philosophy, drama, history, art, and mathematics all owe an immense debt to these two Mediterranean cultures. At the same time, there are aspects of this legacy that are less worthy of celebration. Slavery went hand in hand with democracy. The pursuit of beauty coexisted with breathtaking acts of brutality. Ancient writers have been used to support everything from colonial expansion and the trade in human flesh to the rejection of female franchise. Women suffered for centuries at the hands of doctors who were guided by bizarre notions found in ancient gynecological treatises. This book attempts to address two questions. Firstly, what are the distinctive features of the cultures of Greek and Roman that separate them out from other ancient civilizations? Secondly, why have these cultures been so influential on subsequent societies? It is this dual focus that makes this book distinctive. This book is not just about Greece and Rome. It is equally about why Greece and Rome mattered to people in the past, and why they should matter to us today. Each chapter in the book begins with a story or an incident that is designed to illustrate these themes. The first three chapters of the books (Homer, Athens, and Rome) are intended to give a chronological overview of the period. They will orientate the reader to the key places, actors, and historical trends. The remaining chapters focus on some of the most important and influential aspects of Greco-Roman culture.

Memoir

Honey in My Blood

By: Susan Blanshard

PAPERBACK INCLUDES FREE DOWNLOAD OF THE KINDLE EBOOK Susan Blanshard's poetic narrative is a literary love story of deep abiding love, sexual desire, sensuality and creative art. Impressions of love and life are given through use of extended figurative language. More literary weight is given to thoughts - her impressions are born from the surrounding context which provides the reader with a sense of love and art that has been 'processed' by the mind through the heart. And vice-versa. Where a definable border exists between memoir and literary prose, Susan Blanshard crosses the boarder with her literature. While prose writers concentrate mainly on sense, some crossover authors have experimented with prose that utilized sound and image: Baudelaire, Verlaine, Rimbaud, Apollinaire, Elliot, Rilke, Borges, Solzhenitsyn, Williams. Blanshard uses exquisite prose for the communication of feeling. In a sense she images on the reader's mind. Through shades of language, she allows us to see into the poet's life. She uses "impressionism" in prose; her literary style is characterized by the use of details and mental associations to evoke subjective and sensory impressions rather than a re-creation of objective reality. When you let the lines of the narrative blur, they reveal meaning on a deeper level; the whole world of two, a love for life and a life for love.She does not achieve this by photographs or description of techniques: she simply draws us in through her prose. Confessional and reflective. It is Susan Blanshard's ineffable heart that feels, and paints the phrase, or words, onto the window of the psyche.
