In Israel and the West, it is called the Six Day War. In the Arab world, it is known as the June War or, simply, as "the Setback". Never has a conflict so short, unforeseen, and largely unwanted by both sides so transformed the world. The Yom Kippur War, the war in Lebanon, the Camp David accords, the controversy over Jerusalem and Jewish settlements in the West Bank, the intifada, and the rise of Palestinian terror are all part of the outcome of those six days.

Dive into The Art of Controversy (or The Art of Being Right) (Die Kunst, Recht zu Behalten), a thought-provoking treatise penned by German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer in 1831. In this insightful work, Schopenhauer unveils thirty-eight strategies designed to give you an edge in arguments, allowing you to triumph in debate—even when you’re not in the right. He advocates for the importance of dialectical reasoning, which he believes has been overlooked in favor of pure logic. Schopenhauer also explores the divide between our conscious intellect and our underlying will. This classic text ...

There was entertainment at the Republican Gala on Sunday night. The climax was a full marching band of bagpipers. They must have been hired for the week since one kept hearing them on the following days, and at all odd times, heard them even in my hotel room at four am for a few were marching in the streets of San Francisco, sounding through the night, giving off the barbaric evocation of the Scots, all valor, wrath, firmitude, and treachery - the wild complete treachery of the Scots finding its way into the sound of the pipes.

The Russian invasion of Crimea in 2014, subsequent war in Eastern Ukraine, and economic sanctions imposed by the West transformed European politics. The conflict did not escalate to the levels originally feared but nor was either side able to bring it to a definitive conclusion. Ukraine suffered a loss of territory but was not forced into changing its policies away from the Westward course adopted as a result of the EuroMaidan uprising of February 2014. President Putin was left supporting a separatist enclave as Russia's economy suffered significant damage.

E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India (1924) stands tall among the greatest literary masterpieces of the 20th century, earning its place on Time magazines list of the top 100 English-language novels of all time. Set against the backdrop of a crumbling British Raj, the novel explores the deep-rooted religious and cultural rifts between India’s Hindu and Muslim populations, which historically undermined the local powers needed to challenge colonial rule. Forster skillfully illustrates how these divisions are challenged by a growing collective resistance to the racism, oppression, and ...

King Coal, penned by Upton Sinclair and first published in 1917, shines a stark light on the grim working conditions faced by coal miners in the western United States during the 1910s. Like his earlier masterpiece, The Jungle, Sinclair articulates his socialist beliefs through the eyes of Hal Warner, a protagonist ensnared in the relentless machinations of an oppressive capitalist system. This compelling narrative draws inspiration from the real-life Colorado coal strikes of 1914-1915, revealing the harsh realities of labor struggles and the fight for justice.

Story0
Lucans sole surviving masterpiece, De Bello Civili, more widely recognized as the Pharsalia, is an epic poem that delves into the fierce civil war between Julius Caesar and Pompey the Great. Named after the pivotal Battle of Pharsalus, which unfolded in 48 BC near the ancient city of Pharsalus in Thessaly, this work stands as a significant example of Roman Historic Epic. Unlike many of its contemporaries, divine intervention is notably absent from the narrative, and supernatural occurrences are few and far between. Lucans portrayal of the Civil War serves as a powerful expression of Neronian ...

In a bold stand against the endless wars ravaging Greece, Lysistrata has had enough. Determined to bring peace, she rallies women from across the Greek cities to vow an oath of abstinence from their husbands and lovers. Her belief? That men, driven by desire, will do anything to regain their lost intimacy, even put aside their pride to negotiate peace. As the Athenian women take refuge in the sacred Acropolis, the men gather outside, embroiled in heated debates about their next move. This iconic play by Aristophanes, first performed in 411 BCE, offers a captivating glimpse into the dynamics ...

Both sprang from her early, bitter experience of life under Communism, and became among the most deeply enduring of her messages, attracting a diverse audience of college students and intellectuals, business people and Republican Party activists, libertarians and conservatives.

The inaugural performance took place in Newcastle upon Tyne on March 15, 1899, with a notable London production at the Savoy Theatre in 1907. Shaw presents a compelling argument that it was not passion, but rather political ambition, that drew Cleopatra to Julius Caesar. He draws parallels between the Roman occupation of ancient Egypt and the British ...
