Though a staple in high school English classes, Julius Caesar is
not a simple play. Seemingly irreconcilable forces are at work:
fate and free will, the changeableness and stubbornness of
ambitious men, the demands of public service and the desire for
private gain. Drawn from history as recorded by Plutarch, the major
characters-Caesar, Brutus, Cassius, and Mark Antony-are complex, as
are the twists and turns of their fortunes. What kind of man rises
to power? What price does he pay when he becomes a politician?
These questions raised by Shakespeare are relevant in every age,
whether ancient Rome, Elizabethan England, or even in our own day.

Discover the Christian meaning in " The Hobbit. "
In " Bilbo\'s Journey " go beyond the dragons, dwarves, and elves,
and discover the surprisingly deep meaning of J.R.R. Tolkien\'s
classic novel " The Hobbit. "
Bilbo\'s quest to find and slay the dragon Smaug is a riveting
tale of daring and heroism, but as renowned Tolkien scholar Joseph
Pearce shows, it is not simply Bilbo\'s journey, it is our journey
too.
It is the Christian journey of self-sacrifice out of love for
others, and abandonment to providence and grace.
In " Bilbo\'s Journey: Discovering the Hidden Meaning of The
Hobbit " you will relive the excitement of Tolkien\'s classic tale,
while discovering the profound Christian meaning that makes " The
Hobbit " a truly timeless adventure.
New insight into the Catholicism in C S Lewis's writings.
It's time for the way we think about our families, our schools, and our lives to evolve.This passionate and provocative critique of the way we raise our children and undermine our society's future delineates the ways in which we thart our creative progess, and reveals a new landscape of possibilities for the next step in human evolution. Brilliantly synthesizing twenty years of research into human intelligence, Joseph Chilton Pearce -- author of the bestsellers The Crack in the Cosmic Egg and Magical Child -- show how: • contemporary childbirth and daycare create a dangerous sense of alienation from the surrounding world
• TV impedes vital neurological development
• synthetic hormones in our foods foster premature sexual development, increasing the likelihood of pregnancy and rape
• premature schooling contributes to potentially explosive frustration and rebellionThese everyday aspects of modern life have a cumulative effect, contributing to violence, child suicide, and deteriorating family and social structures. Proposing crucial yet simple solutions, Pearce persuasively argues that we have the power to get out of our own way and unleash, instead, our "unlimited", awesome, and unknown" human potential as the culmination of three billion years of evolution.
