Truth can only be spoken by Truth. There is no other way to say It. Likewise does This Book speak for Itself with flowing Words warmed up to paint vivid pictures like a Dream giving one the extrasensory experiences of seeing as no-seeing and doing as no-doing. So exposed to the shadowy light of ones own sublime Theme does the novel Kind sprout up as a Visionary show and tell to demonstrate who You are. Yes, you as the well fed of fantasy, fiction and self-help yet still hungry and sweating it out for Allegory and Metaphor's rich return. And the You standing upon your formative plateau with nothing above and nothing below faced out in the apocalyptic view of I Just Know There Is More Here Than Meets the Eye. And are you ready to take the leap to greet It.
Inklings from Cape Cod is an eclectic mix of traditional and non-traditional writing lessons and the pieces that they inspired. Created primarily during a week at a Cape Cod summer workshop, the book's selections are authored by students in 6th through 12th grade. The writing pieces featured in Inklings span the gamut from six word stories, to dramatic drafts and eclectic exercises to crafty characterizations, private poetry, wordly wonderings, fabulous fiction, noteworthy nonfiction, lively letters, sensational settings, toddler tantrums, articulate alliteration, and trustworthy teaching techniques. This collection, an accolade to the young authors, has something for readers of all ages, writers of all levels, and teachers who like to be wowed. This coffee table text is unique with motivating mini writing lessons accompanied by the inspiringly creative student responses. The editor is a seasoned, award winning teacher and published journalist. Thirty-six extremely motivated, enthusiastic Cape Cod summer writing workshop students inspired teacher Stephanie Boosahda to create this anthology. On the third day of the five day workshop she found herself again saying, "Those pieces were awesome. Seriously, they should be published." Responding with total silence, the students from as far away as Michigan and Kansas joined Cape Cod students in letting Stephanie's words echo, "Those pieces ... should be published." So, adventure into the diverse creative writing of these exceptional 6th through 11th graders, and see why well-know authors have commented:  "A joy to read, and an awesome voyage into the creative minds of young, imaginative writers..." - John Prophet, author of the Casey Miller Mysteries  "Fascinating and fun to read, with everything from six-word stories to longer pieces, "Inklings" demonstrates the many ways an inspired teacher can empower students to discover their creativity and develop their own unique and powerful voices." - Leslie Meier, author of the Lucy Stone Mystery series  " ... If these young writers continue honing their craft, the future of American literature looks very bright, indeed."- Elizabeth Moisan, author of Master of the Sweet Trade  "These collected voices blend together in a chorale of accomplishment. What a treat to read. What a joy to know that future novelists, memoirists, and poets have been fostered in this way to enchant tomorrow's readers." - Kathryn C. Dunlap, Director; Buzzards Bay Writing Project, Nat'l Writing Project; University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth  "Stephanie's design of the Workshop clearly provided an atmosphere of safety, trust, and risk-taking in writing that is obvious in the breadth and depth of the selections in this anthology. A wonderful read and a great resource." -K. Victoria Kazer-Townsend, retired English AP professor Delve into Inklings, enjoy, and be inspired. There's something for everyone in this eclectic read.
The Back Seat Murder, first published in 1931, is a classic, fast-paced ‘golden-age’ mystery, featuring a cast of characters of questionable motive and intent, sure to keep readers guessing as to the identity of the killer. Herman Landon (1882-1960) authored a number of mystery and detective novels, including the popular 1920s detective series “Gray Phantom”.
"Since 1979 China’s leaders have introduced economic and political reforms that have lessened the state’s hold over the lives of ordinary citizens. By examining the growth in individual rights, the public sphere, democratic processes, and pluralization, the author seeks to answer questions concerning the relevance of liberal democratic ideas for China and the relationship between a democratic political culture and a democratic political system. The author also looks at the contradictory impulses and negative consequences for democracy generated by economic liberalism. Unresolved issues concerning the relationships among culture, democracy, and socioeconomic development are at the heart of the analysis. Nonideological criteria are used to assess the success of the Chinese approach to building a fair, just, and decent society."
In The Inklings, the Victorians, and the Moderns, the author examines the dynamics of a small group of twentieth-century traditionalists who reacted in opposition to the spirit of the intellectual movements of the modern age. In particular, he draws on the Inklings (e.g., C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien), Christian humanists such as G.K Chesterton, and other proponents of the Great Books and classical liberal learning to outline a position that eschewed reactionary rejections of modern thought, but sought to transcend its perceived limitations by asserting the continued value of myth, religion, liberal education, and ancient texts. They were more than instigators and wished to reconcile and translate conservative traditional ideas within a progressive modern scientific context. The author magnifies the intellectual trends in modern Western thought in the twentieth-century and provides the historical context for the resistance to the prominent and convincing tenets of modernity. Given the myriad responses, he focuses on a more conservative response to reductive definitions born out of well-intentioned progressivism. The author approaches the subject matter from an historical perspective, but utilizes an interdisciplinary discourse to create a multi-dimensional explanation of the intellectual atmosphere of the twentieth-century.
