Historical Archives and the Historians' Commission to Investigate the Armenian Eve...

Historical Archives and the Historians' Commission to Investigate the Armenian Events of 1915 By Yücel Güçlü
2015 | 356 Pages | ISBN: 0761865667 | EPUB | 1 MB
Historical Archives and the Historians' Commission to Investigate the Armenian Events of 1915 demonstrates the vital importance of Ottoman and other relevant archives in Turkey for the study of the Armenian question. Historians, assisted by newly discovered or recently published materials, must continually reassess events of the past in order to achieve a rounder view. The Armenian events of 1915 are certainly no exception. This study encourages further engagement between the policy-making and the scholarly communities by indicating the continued importance of past records and documents for today's pressing debates. In order to give a fuller picture, this survey also looks at some major relevant archival sources outside Turkey, including the state of archives of the First Republic of Armenia and those of the Dashnak Party. Yücel Güçlü's inquiry sheds light on some of the British records relating to the First World War and its immediate aftermath locked at the National Archives in Kew, London, and he examines the special relevance of repositories in Moscow and St. Petersburg in understanding the Turkish-Armenian conflict. Güçlü assesses Turkey's proposal to establish an international historians' commission to investigate the Armenian events of 1915 and reviews in-depth the meanings and implications of the protocols of cooperation signed between Turkey and Armenia on 10 October 2009. By turning a modern eye on historical events, this study gives great and necessary attention to discovering the precise chronology, meaning, and development of the continuing negotiations between Turkey and Armenia.

Historical Dictionary of the Netherlands

Historical Dictionary of the Netherlands By Joop W. Koopmans
2015 | 498 Pages | ISBN: 1442255927 | EPUB | 1 MB
The Kingdom of the Netherlands is a small, but heavily populated country with almost 17 million inhabitants. It is one of the last kingdoms in Europe and in 2015 it celebrated its 200 years anniversary. The Netherlands became a kingdom after the Napoleonic era. During this period it was transformed into a centralized state. Before those years it had been one of few republics in Europe for about two centuries. That state was a confederacy, which emerged in the 1580s during its independence struggle against the Spanish Habsburgs. Although the present state is still monarchial, the Netherlands functions as a modern constitutional democracy, in which the king's position is almost comparable with a ceremonial presidency. The majority of the Dutch population, however, appreciates the hereditary political presence of the House of Orange-Nassau, regarding this dynasty as a symbol of national unity and connection with the country's past. This third edition of Historical Dictionary of the Netherlands contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 900 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Netherlands.

History of a Six Weeks' Tour (Oxford World's Classics)

History of a Six Weeks' Tour: Through a Part of France, Switzerland, Germany, and Holland: with Letters Descriptive of a Sail Round the Lake of Geneva, and of the Glaciers of Chamouni (Oxford World's Classics) by Mary W. Shelley, Percy Bysshe Shelley, edited by Cian Duffy, Anna Mercer
English | 12 Jun. 2025 | ISBN: 0192858270 | True EPUB | 192 pages | 1.3 MB
'I never knew-I never imagined what mountains were before.'

History of a Six Weeks' Tour (1817) is a volume of travel-writing by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley and Percy Bysshe Shelley, two of the best-known authors of the English Romantic period. Comprising prose narrative, correspondence, and poetry, it is a highly engaging account of their 'adventures and feelings' during two journeys from England to Switzerland.
The first part of History describes the titular 'tour' made by the not-yet married Mary and Percy in July-September 1814, when mainland Europe was once again accessible to British travellers at the end of the Napoleonic wars. The long descriptive letters which make up the second part of History recall the so-called 'Frankenstein summer' of 1816, some of which the Shelleys spent with Byron on the shores of Lake Geneva. This part of History also provides significant biographical and historical context for Mary's novels Frankenstein (1818) and The Last Man (1826), key sections of which are set in the Alps, and for two of Percy's most canonical poems, 'Hymn to Intellectual Beauty' and 'Mont Blanc', the second of which was published for the first time in History. This edition includes an introduction, detailed notes, maps, and appendices, placing the book in its historical and cultural context and showcasing the Shelleys' collaborative writing process.

Hitler An Illustrated Life

Robin Cross, "Hitler: An Illustrated Life"
English | 2013 | pages: 303 | ASIN: B07V7S55FY | EPUB | 7,7 mb
As Chancellor of Germany between 1933 and 1945, Adolf Hitler exercised unrestricted power over his country's social, political and economic life. Hitler's belligerent re-armament programme, his imposition of anti-Semitic legislation and his territorially aggressive policies led to genocide and worldwide conflict on an unprecedented scale. Although the subject of numerous biographies and fictional portrayals, there have hitherto been few succinct, factual narratives of Hitler's life. Hitler is a short chronicle of the Fuhrer's career, amplified with numerous rare photographs and artefacts from the period. Second World War expert Robin Cross offers a clear outline of Hitler's progress: from his unhappy childhood as the son of a minor Austrian official in Braunau, to his inglorious early occupation as a jobbing Viennese artist; from his formative experiences as a corporal in the First World War, to his emergence as leader of the National Socialist Workers' Party in the 1920s; from his extraordinary rise to supreme power in 1933, to his suicide amidst the ruins of Berlin in 1945. Commanding, informative and stylish, and written by a scholar who is steeped in knowledge of the period, Hitler is an essential companion for anyone with a fascination for the twentieth century, the Second World War or the age of dictators.

Hollywood Faith Holiness, Prosperity, and Ambition in a Los Angeles Church

Hollywood Faith : Holiness, Prosperity, and Ambition in a Los Angeles Church By Gerardo Martí
2008 | 250 Pages | ISBN: 0813543487 | PDF | 1 MB
In Christianity, as with most religions, attaining holiness and a higher spirituality while simultaneously pursuing worldly ideals such as fame and fortune is nearly impossible. So how do people pursuing careers in Hollywood's entertainment industry maintain their religious devotion without sacrificing their career goals? For some, the answer lies just two miles south of the historic center of Hollywood, California, at the Oasis Christian Center. In Hollywood Faith, Gerardo Marti shows how a multiracial evangelical congregation of 2,000 people accommodates itself to the entertainment industry and draws in many striving to succeed in this harsh and irreverent business. Oasis strategically sanctifies ambition and negotiates social change by promoting a new religious identity as "champion of life"-an identity that provides people who face difficult career choices and failed opportunities a sense of empowerment and endurance. The first book to provide an in-depth look at religion among the "creative class," Hollywood Faith will fascinate those interested in the modern evangelical movement and anyone who wants to understand how religion adapts to social change.

Hollywood High A Totally Epic, Way Opinionated History of Teen Movies

Hollywood High: A Totally Epic, Way Opinionated History of Teen Movies by Bruce Handy
English | May 20, 2025 | ISBN: 1501181173 | True EPUB | 384 pages | 4.99 MB
From a longtime Vanity Fair writer and editor, a delightfully entertaining, intelligent, and illuminating history and tribute to teen movies-from Rebel Without a Cause to Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and on to John Hughes, Mean Girls, The Hunger Games, and more.

What influence did Francis Ford Coppola have on George Lucas's American Graffiti? And Lucas on John Singleton's Boyz n the Hood? How does teenage sexuality in Fast Times at Ridgemont High compare to Twilight? Which teen movies pass the Bechdel test? Why is Mean Girls actually the last great teen film of the 20th century?
In the same way that Peter Biskind's Easy Riders, Raging Bulls connects the films of the 1970s to the period's cultural upheaval, and David Hadju's Positively 4th Street tells the story of the sixties through the emergence of folk music, Bruce Handy's Hollywood High situates iconic teen movies within their times and reveals the intriguing stories, artists, and passions behind their creation. These films aren't merely beloved stories; they reflect teens' growing economic and cultural influence, societal panics, and shifting perceptions of youth in America.
Much more than a nostalgia trip, Hollywood High is a lively, provocative, and affectionate cultural history, spanning nearly one hundred years. Handy, an acclaimed journalist and critic who spent two decades at Vanity Fair, examines the defining films of each generation and builds connections between them. From the Andy Hardy classics (1937-1946) to the iconic Rebel Without a Cause (1955); Beach Party series (1963-1968); American Graffiti (1973); Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982); the John Hughes touchstones Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1984-1986); Boyz N the Hood (1991); Mean Girls (2004); the Twilight saga (2008-2012); and The Hunger Games series (2012-2015); this is a captivating deep dive into the world of teen movies that captures their sweeping history and influence. We'll hear from icons James Dean, Annette Funicello, George Lucas, Amy Heckerling, John Hughes, Molly Ringwald, John Singleton, Tina Fey, and Kristen Stewart, and discover why the most timeless teen movies resonate across generations.

Home Ground and Foreign Territory Essays on Early Canadian Literature

Janice Fiamengo, "Home Ground and Foreign Territory: Essays on Early Canadian Literature "
English | ISBN: 0776621394 | 2014 | 308 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
The first multi-disciplinary collection of essays to focus exclusively on early Canadian literature with the aim of reassessing the field and proposing new approaches. Home Ground and Foreign Territory is an original collection of essays on early Canadian literature in English. Aiming to be both provocative and scholarly, it encompasses a variety of (sometimes opposing) perspectives, subjects, and methods, with the aim of reassessing the field, unearthing neglected texts, and proposing new approaches to canonical authors. Renowned experts in early Canadian literary studies, including D.M.R. Bentley, Mary Jane Edwards, and Carole Gerson, join emerging scholars in a collection distinguished by its clarity of argument and breadth of reference. Together, the essays offer bold and informative contributions to the study of this dynamic literature. Home Ground and Foreign Territory reaches out far beyond the scope of early Canadian literature. Its multi-disciplinary approach innovates literal studies and appeals to literature specialists and general readership alike.

Homeownership vs. Renting Financial Freedom or Financial Burden

Homeownership vs. Renting: Financial Freedom or Financial Burden? (Banking & Economics) by Keith M Gilbert
English | January 27, 2025 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0CW1BJ4XF | EPUB | 1.11 Mb
Cost of living factors play a crucial role in determining whether individuals choose to rent or buy. The expenses associated with homeownership extend beyond mortgage payments, encompassing property taxes, maintenance, and utilities. For renters, these costs can also escalate, particularly in areas experiencing rapid growth or gentrification. Rising utility costs can further strain rental budgets, making it increasingly difficult for families to maintain their quality of life. The intersection of these costs often leads to difficult financial choices, with many individuals finding themselves unable to afford basic necessities while trying to keep up with housing payments. Which are you a Buyer or Renter?

Hope from the Ashes Insights and Resources for Welcoming Lenten Visitors

Paul E. Jarzembowski, "Hope from the Ashes: Insights and Resources for Welcoming Lenten Visitors"
English | ISBN: 0809155753 | 2022 | 224 pages | EPUB | 1103 KB
Each year on Ash Wednesday, millions of people ―many who are not particularly active in the practice of their faith for one reason or another - return to church to receive ashes, including a significant amount of young adults in their 20s and 30s. Even more of them engage in some form of Lenten tradition in their personal lives during the forty days that follow. However, after Easter, studies show that their participation wanes and their connection to the church is often lost (at least until Christmas or the next Ash Wednesday). This momentary experience, though, is an occasion of hope for the Church. As the world moves through uncertain times, this annual phenomenon seems to touch the heart and soul of so many people, as it has for centuries. For ages, the Lenten season has been a source of refuge and stability in the midst of anxiety and crisis. More importantly, though, is the hope that comes from active Catholics and church leaders who respond to this experience in a spirit of compassion, pastoral care, and intentional accompaniment. Through the lens of the Scripture readings heard every Ash Wednesday, this book will help readers understand what they can do in their annual preparation for Lent, as well as what they can do on Ash Wednesday, throughout the Lenten season, and beyond. The goal for the reader is to find practical ways to be responsive and engaging― in their homes, within their local communities, and at their local parish― and be a part of the movement to transform moments of return into milestones along the journey of faith. †
