The key themes tackled by this book provoked a lot of thought. □ Exploration of power, revolution, and free will. Phalue’s beliefs, in particular, are challenged as she faces the greed and corruption of her own father. As they both strive to work out their personal issues, Phalue and Ranami are forced to confront larger ills on the island they live in. Their differences in social standing contribute to the rough patches of their relationship. Specifically, Phalue is the vastly privileged daughter of a corrupt governor, while Ranami belongs to the poorest sector of society. There is an established romantic relationship between two women, who come from opposing social classes. □ Sapphic goodness and addressing class privilege. In fact, shards under strenuous use can cause citizens to fall into shard-sickness, which eventually becomes fatal. These shards are used to create and power terrifying magical constructs that carry out their maker’s commands. In The Bone Shard Daughter, magic is performed through the use of bone shards, which are forcibly taken from the kingdom’s children through a tithing ceremony.

Socrates too compares himself to some of the greatest: Hercules, Achilles, and Theseus, all of whom faced great trials without fear and slew many enemies, though they died most unhappy deaths. Plato is fond of likening Socrates to the great heroes at the dawn of Greek and Athenian civilization. I mean it to remind us of the monsters our hero must vanquish, his monsters and ours. But ‘hero’ is a strong word, and I mean it to conjure up images of the great trials a hero must face in life, including the final trial we all must face when we see the end approaching. John’s College, a model of radical inquiry, the embodiment of the liberally educated person, and a man who faced his own death well, even beautifully. Plato’s Socrates is a local hero to many of us at St. I am speaking now only of the Socrates we come to know through the dialogues of Plato, and particularly through the three dialogues concerning the trial and final days of Socrates, the Apology, Crito, and Phaedo. Of course, it’s not every life that is told through the story of its death, but I think this is particularly appropriate in the case of Socrates. I am grateful for the opportunity to have reflected on the life of Socrates as I wrote this evening’s lecture. The body of Socrates may be gone but the Real Socrates has stayed with Phaedo, his friends and with all of us who will take up a life devoted to philosophy. We have more advanced detection capacity now with genetic analysis and other kinds of ways that we can see where these invisible microbes are spreading and changing. we know there's certain places that have higher risk of pathogens emerging, and we can do kind of active surveillance in those places by mapping the microbes that are there, by surveilling people or animals who are more likely to spread or to have spill-overs of microbes into their bodies. That's kind of after the fire has started, then we rush in with our fire extinguishers.īut to really prevent them would mean stepping it way farther back, and that is possible now, because. But that's not actually preventing these pathogens from emerging and from causing outbreaks. How?Ī lot of times when we talk about being more prepared in preventing pathogens from spreading or preventing pandemics, what we're really talking about is first response, stepping up our first response, so that when we have outbreaks of disease that our hospitals are prepared and we have vaccines stockpiled and we are able to fly our experts around really quickly to get to the scene of the outbreak, and things like that.

The Argonauts is, likewise, resistant to summary, though describing it as a love story might come closest. They float across categories, now memoir, now poetry, now philosophy, now criticism, too fleet and witty and subtle to be pinned down. These books never quite settle into a fixed form. Previous works include a philosophical survey of heartbreak and the colour blue ( Bluets), two volumes about the abduction and murder of her aunt ( Jane: A Murder and The Red Parts), and the magnificently invigorating The Art of Cruelty, a study of avant-garde art that turns by degrees into an unflinching investigation into the nature of violence itself. If you haven’t heard of her, it’s because she is yet to be published in the UK, from which one might conclude that British publishing is becoming too timid for its own good. Born in 1973, she has so far produced nine books, four of poetry and five of non-fiction, knitting together what might in heavier hands be abstruse theory and humid confession to create an exhilarating new language for considering both the messiness of life and the meanings of art. Maggie Nelson is one of the most electrifying writers at work in America today, among the sharpest and most supple thinkers of her generation.

This one remained unknown to me until I was able to buy this 1976 reprint from Dover Books. Baum wrote many other fantasy novels for young readers, but I didn’t know about most of them until later when I began to find them at used book sales and stores in my twenties. Granted, Baum’s first Oz book was not as good as the movie, in my opinion then and now, but the second one of the series, “The Marvelous Land of Oz,” was even better, and many later titles were equally fun to read. Baum’s Oz from the 1939 MGM film, but came to love his Oz books when my grade school librarian lent me her own childhood editions of many of them in the early 1960s when I was about 12. Every year around this time I reread something related to the season, and this is it for 2020. |
