Although there is abundant evidence that silent reading existed in antiquity, the question remains as to when it became widespread. Silent Reading and the Birth of the Narrator asserts that, due to a rise in the late-seventeenth and early-eighteenth centuries in the number of parents who could afford to let their children read freely, widely, and for prolonged periods, an entire generation grew into fluent, silent readers in the later 1700s. At that point in time, the reader ceased to be a mouthpiece of the writer, becoming instead a silent hearer of an imagined writer's words.Elspeth Jajdelska uses historical, linguistic, and literary evidence to discuss the reorientation of the text and reader towards one another. She specifically investigates changes in punctuation, sentence structure,... Less

The Eve of Spain demonstrates how the telling and retelling of one of Spain’s founding myths played a central role in the formation of that country’s national identity.

Jardine, Matheson & Co. was founded in Canton in 1832, and built up to become an international trading house with business interests throughout the world.

The result is a fascinating miscellany of scholarship and anecdote that tells an exciting tale of merchant adventure, of how wealth and influence were accumulated in the early days of trading, and of the special relationship forged by 'the Princely Hong' with China and her people.

After reading this stunning nonfiction book, which was featured in Allure Magazines December 22, 2006 issue, you will realize that lies are the deadliest sins in our lives. To believe the words of these Evangelists, will surely cause you to die; it is astonishing how much they lie to us about God. The Churches deceived the whole world, and are now responsible for teaching us Eve ate the “Apple,” although this was never written in the Bible. Believing in lies about God caused Adam, Eve and all of us to become “naked” (unprotected), and exposed to death. Death entered into our world, because Eve ate (believed) the words of someone who lied to her about God; they called him “Satan”. Would you trust another liar to teach you about God? The story Garden of Eden is a parable that teaches us not... Less
