Samuel Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was a literary titan who straddled the American 19th and 20th centuries. More than just a humorist, Twain was a multifaceted author, essayist, social critic, and entrepreneur whose legacy transcends mere entertainment. His prose shimmered with wit, his satiric scalpel deftly exposing the societal hypocrisies of his time. Yet, his empathy for the marginalized and disenfranchised pulsed beneath the surface, lending depth and nuance to his narratives. Twain's literary landscape is vast and varied. He immortalized the idyllic boyhood ...

Meine Lieben, das Buch, das ich euch vorlese, wurde vor etwa sechzehn Jahren unter dem Titel Doppel-Ich veröffentlicht. Es war eine Auftragsarbeit für das Gütersloher Verlagshaus. Der Verlag war durch meine Talkshow "Guildo und seine Gäste" auf mein zerklüftetes Treiben im pädagogischen Kontext aufmerksam geworden. Bestellt wurde ein Buch über meinen Ansatz zum Thema Inklusion. Ich habe das Ganze dann in einen autobiografischen Roman gepackt und bin dafür in Bereiche meiner Vergangenheit vorgedrungen, die mich zum Teil vor mir selbst erschaudern ließen.

POVERTY: WHAT'S SOCIAL SCIENCE GOT TO DO WITH IT? Sixty years after Lyndon B. Johnson initiated the "War on Poverty," the number of children living in poverty today is higher than of any time in our nation's history. Doug Wallace and his seven siblings barely survived childhood, fleeing in the night from landlords, scrambling for food, and burning down the only house they ever owned to collect insurance money. Wallace digs deeper into the language and behavioral barriers faced by generational poverty victims, combining personal anecdotes and compelling personal experiences to establish new ...

Teachers for Life introduces us to two educators who seize this very opportunity.

This book tells the story of a time when society was divided and Harvard was becoming what it is today. It is not an exhaustive biography, but it has family information which puts things in perspective, and tells how he and Mather, who were about the same age, lived through the Salem witch trials. Leverett was busy writing logic textbooks in Latin at the time, but didn't dare speak out against the leader of the colony.

Richard Brantley’s culminating monograph knits intellectual and spiritual autobiography with literary criticism. His measuring of faith in experience (empiricism) versus the experience of faith (evangelicalism)—fostered by parents steeped in literature—prefigured his career-long approach. A combination of personal commitment and professional dynamism sets a model for subjective as well as objective interpretation. Grappling with the sources of both taste and judgment seems called for in these dangerous times. Brantley’s memoir/lit-crit hybrid delivers art and life alike. What Others...
