【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】God's Scofflaws【電子書籍】[ Dakota Franklin ]

＜p＞? Dakota Franklin WINS Best Action/Adventure at Best Independent EBook Awards＜/p＞ ＜p＞? Dakota Franklin's series RUTHLESS TO WIN has already won awards and enthusiastic reviews for fascinating characters and rivetting action. All have all been international bestsellers.＜/p＞ ＜p＞GOD’S SCOFFLAWS by Dakota Franklin＜/p＞ ＜p＞Grant Scarfe, a mathematician of genius, steadily on his way to the top as an engineer at Porsche, has led a protected life of privilege. It follows naturally that when Armitage, the premier racing house of the world, decides to throw a million dollar party at the Tourist Trophy on the Isle of Man, they should ask Grant if he wants to spend his sabbatical year building motorbikes for Billy Crawshaw to race.＜/p＞ ＜p＞'A dead engineer would crawl out of the grave to race Billy Crawshaw in the TT.'＜/p＞ ＜p＞But Lydia Simpresi, Armitage’s treasured sponsor, to whom no one ever says no, decides that the once-modest party at the TT will be a homage to her late father. That piles on the pressure. And then Billy decides, on a whim, that Grant should put the team in Northern Ireland where road racing is the national sportーright after terrorism. That makes the pressure intolerable, because each of the opposing terrorist groups, and their equally violent splinters, views Armitage as ‘on our patch’, couriers of drugs and money to fight the forthcoming electionーand of detonators for bombs.＜/p＞ ＜p＞'It was only a small bomb. A warning that the next one will kill some of us.'＜/p＞ ＜p＞Then there is the police, traffic cops bumped up for their political allegiance, incapable of protecting Grant’s staff, more interested in ensuring that the Harringtons sent to beef up his security don’t cause a renewed outbreak of The Troubles.＜/p＞ ＜p＞‘Joanne and those ex-commandos all by themselves are a moving small-scale war.’＜/p＞ ＜p＞Patton, the only competent cop, is a British anti-terrorist plant. He intends to force Grant to go along with both groups of terrorists and then to testify against them, clearly a suicide mission.＜/p＞ ＜p＞That isn’t all. The internal politics of Armitage are such that if Grant in his motorbike ‘sideshow’ puts a scratch on Billy, Armitage’s Le Mans 24 Hours starter and star, Mallory and Jack Armitage will ruin his career.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Grant’s only solace is his growing love affair with Harry Bingham, his Operations Director.＜/p＞ ＜p＞'In her red leather team jacket she looks like Vogue’s idea of a biker’s moll.'＜/p＞ ＜p＞On the Isle of Man for the TT, Grant discovers that his racing team’s trucks will be used to carry detonators for bombs into Britain. But he has a plan to put all his tormentors at each other’s throats ー as soon as he has survived the dangerous TT with Billy intact.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Then the terrorists take Harry to force Grant to carry their bomb into position for them, and everything explodes in uncontrolled violence on the Snaefell Mountain between the competing terrorist groups, Patton and his anti-terrorist police, and the Harringtons helping Grant recover Harry.＜/p＞ ＜p＞***＜br /＞ “I thought the characters were great.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu【電子書籍】[ Sax Rohmer ]

＜p＞The Mystery of Dr. Fu Manchu is the first novel in the Dr. Fu Manchu (sometimes "Fu-Manchu") series by Sax Rohmer. It collates various short stories published the preceding year. The novel was also published in US under the title The Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu.＜br /＞ We meet first Dr Petrie who is immediately surprised by a late night visitor, "a tall, lean ... square cut ... sun baked" man who turns out to be his good friend (Commissioner Sir Denis) Nayland Smith of Burma, formerly of Scotland Yard, who has come directly from Burma. We then learn that various men associated with India are the target of assassination by the Chinese Dr Fu Manchu, who seems to have been active in Burma (as distinct from India), in places such as Rangoon, Prome, Moulmein and the "Upper Irrawaddy" and who comes to England with dacoits and thuggees.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Fu Manchu is pursued from the opium dens of Limehouse in the East End of London to various country estates. We learn that Dr Fu Manchu is a leading member not of "old China", the Mandarin class of the Manchu dynasty, or "young China", a new generation of "youthful and unbalanced reformers" with "western polish" ? but a "Third Party". Nayland Smith is outwitted several times by Fu Manchu, and thus he reflects more the narrow escapes of the later Bulldog Drummond rather than the "logical" superior approach of the earlier Sherlock Holmes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Fu Manchu is a master poisoner and chemist, a cunning member of the Yellow Peril, "the greatest genius which the powers of evil have put on the earth for centuries", though his mission is not exactly clear at this stage. He appears to be trying to capture and take back to China the best engineers of Europe, for some larger criminal purpose.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞This book won the Dan Poynter 2011 First-place GOLD Global eBook Award in the Fiction/Mystery category.＜/p＞ ＜p＞An L.A.P.D. detective named Tony is attorney Peter Sharp's dock neighbor, and aside from being a racist cop on suspension while several incidents of alleged police brutality he's been accused of are being investigated, he seems like pretty nice guy.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Like other boat owners on the dock, Peter avoids eye contact with Tony... whose only friend in the marina appears to be Peter's 12-year old legal ward Suzi, an adorable Chinese computer genius.＜/p＞ ＜p＞She spends time on Tony's boat and enjoys his version of baby-sitting, which entails teaching her the fine art of re-loading the shells for his huge 50-caliber Smith & Wesson revolver, a $1,400 piece of hand-held artillery that's the most powerful production handgun in the world and would undoubtedly make even Dirty Harry think twice about going up against it.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Suzi isn't allowed to handle this 15-inch long monster that weighs almost 7 pounds loaded, but she is rapidly becoming a ballistic expert in the re-loading field and when Tony is arrested for suspicion of first-degree murder merely because he was found standing over the body of a Black man who Tony was seen arguing with, Suzi convinces Peter to become the defense lawyer.＜/p＞ ＜p＞When the bullet that killed the victim is determined to have been fired by Tony's gun, the case takes another turn for the worse, and if you're at all interested in law, murder, police procedure and/or ballistics, you'll enjoy reading this book and seeing if you can beat Suzi in a race to find out if Tony is innocent - and if he's not - who the real guilty party is.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】CAPTAIN BOLDHEART and THE LATIN-GRAMMAR MASTER - An illustrated children's story by Charles Dickens【電子書籍】[ Charles Dickens ]

＜p＞From The Pen Of Lieutenant Colonel Robin Redforth, Aged Nine ? but in reality written by Charles Dickens as book III of IV in a series titled a Holiday Romance.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The subject of our present narrative, Captain Boldheart, would appear to have devoted himself to the Pirate profession at a comparatively early age, although we are not informed exactly how early. Nevertheless, we find him in command of a splendid schooner of one hundred guns, loaded to the muzzle, and he was yet to celebrate a party in honour of his tenth birthday!＜/p＞ ＜p＞It seems that our hero, considering himself spited by a Latin Grammar Master, demanded the satisfaction due from one man of honour to another. Not getting it, he privately withdrew his haughty spirit from such low company, bought a second hand pocket pistol, folded up some sandwiches in a paper bag, made a bottle of Spanish liquorice water, and enbarked on a career of valour.＜/p＞ ＜p＞What actually happened to Captain Boldheart and his crew? Was his honour assuaged or did he have to take more drastic action to obtain satisfaction? Just how far did he and his crew have to go? Did they visit any strange and exotic far-off lands on the way? Well, you’ll just have to download and read this book to find out!＜br /＞ ＜strong＞=================＜br /＞ Charles John Huffam Dickens＜/strong＞ (7 February 1812 ? 9 June 1870) was an English writer and social critic. He created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. Dickens's literary success began with the 1836 serial publication of The Pickwick Papers and he went on to be regarded as the literary colossus of his age. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the twentieth century critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories enjoy lasting popularity.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Chess Artist Genius, Obsession, and the World's Oldest Game【電子書籍】[ J. C. Hallman ]

＜p＞＜strong＞In the tradition of ＜em＞The Professor and the Madman＜/em＞, ＜em＞Longitude＜/em＞, and ＜em＞The Orchid Thief＜/em＞, Hallman transforms an obsessive quest for obscure things into a compulsively readable and entertaining weaving of travelogue, journalism, and chess history.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the tiny Russian province of Kalmykia, obsession with chess has reached new heights. Its leader, a charismatic and eccentric millionaire/ex--car salesman named Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, is a former chess prodigy and the most recent president of FIDE, the world's controlling chess body. Despite credible allegations of his involvement in drug running, embezzlement, and murder, the impoverished Kalmykian people have rallied around their leader's obsession---chess is played on Kalmykian prime-time television and is compulsory in Kalmykian schools. In addition, Kalmyk women have been known to alter their traditional costumes of pillbox hats and satin gowns to include chessboard-patterned sashes.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Chess Artist＜/em＞ is both an intellectual journey and first-rate travel writing dedicated to the love of chess and all of its related oddities, writer and chess enthusiast J. C. Hallman explores the obsessive hold chess exerts on its followers by examining the history and evolution of the game and the people who dedicate their lives to it. Together with his friend Glenn Umstead, an African-American chessmaster who is arguably as chess obsessed as Ilyumzhinov, Hallman tours New York City's legendary chess district, crashes a Princeton Math Department game party, challenges a convicted murderer to a chess match in prison, and travels to Kalmykia, where they are confronted with members of the Russian intelligence service, beautiful translators who may be spies, seven-year-old chess prodigies, and the sad blight of a land struggling toward capitalism.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Symposium【電子書籍】[ Plato ]

＜p＞Written sometime during the 4th century BC, “Symposium” is one the most poetic and sublime works by the Greek philosopher Plato. The action of the dialogue is set during a party hosted by the poet Agathon to celebrate his first victory in a dramatic competition. The title ‘Symposium’, or ‘Banquet’ refers to the setting of the work, however the more literal translation from the Greek is a ‘drinking party.’ At this party several notable figures from classical antiquity, including Phaedrus, Pausanias, Eryximachus, Aristophanes, Agathon, Alcibiades, and Socrates in turn give speeches in praise of Eros, the god of love. The work at its core is an examination of the genesis, purpose, and nature of love. While it is possible that the circumstances of the work may be based on actual events known to Plato, scholars believe it most likely to be the sole invention of its author. An intriguing dialogue on the subject of love, “Symposium” is a preeminent example of Plato’s philosophical genius and a must read for any student of classical antiquity. This edition is translated with an introduction by Benjamin Jowett, includes a preface by Friedrich Schleiermacher, and a biographical afterword.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The shooting party【電子書籍】[ Anton Pavlovich Chekhov ]

＜p＞Chekhov's works have probably never enjoyed such a degree of popularity in his own country as they do in England to-day. There is an ever increasing demand for his admirable short stories, and his plays, despite their gloomy and depressing characterーso contrary to all that English audiences require when they go to the theatreーhave attained great success and attracted large numbers of people to the little theatre at Barnes, as well as to the West End houses where they have been given.＜br /＞ Deeming that the time has now come when readers, who have shown so much admiration for his works, would like to have a deeper insight into the development of this remarkable genius, we are here offering, for the first time in English, a translation of one of his early works, which is perhaps his most ambitious effortーat least with regard to length and to complexity of plot. “The Shooting Party” was written in 1885, in the early and difficult period of Chekhov's life. While still a student at the University, he found himself obliged to support his family with his pen, and when he wrote this novel he was only beginning to make his way to the forefront of literature.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Shakespeare as a Man, or a Poet【電子書籍】[ Leslie Stephen ]

＜p＞Great men are more distinguished by range and tent than by originality. If we require the originality which consists in weaving, like a spider, their web from their own bowels; in finding clay and making bricks and building the house; no great men are original. Nor does valuable originality consist in unlikeness to other men. The hero is in the press of knights and the thick of events; and seeing what men want and sharing their desire, he adds the needful length of sight and of arm, to come at the desired point. The greatest genius is the most indebted man. A poet is no rattle-brain, saying what comes uppermost, and, because he says everything, saying at last something good; but a heart in unison with his time and country. There is nothing whimsical and fantastic in his production, but sweet and sad earnest, freighted with the weightiest convictions and pointed with the most determined aim which any man or class knows of in his times...＜/p＞ ＜p＞Shakespeare's youth fell in a time when the English people were importunate for dramatic entertainments. The court took offence easily at political allusions and attempted to suppress them. The Puritans, a growing and energetic party, and the religious among the Anglican church, would suppress them. But the people wanted them. Inn-yards, houses without roofs, and extemporaneous enclosures at country fairs were the ready theatres of strolling players. The people had tasted this new joy; and, as we could not hope to suppress newspapers now,- no, not by the strongest party,- neither then could king, prelate, or puritan, alone or united, suppress an organ which was ballad, epic, newspaper, caucus, lecture, Punch and library, at the same time.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜em＞＜strong＞"Delaney...chides white Masons for refusing to deal with black Masons on equal terms." - Martin R. Delany: A Documentary Reader (2003)＜/strong＞＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞＜strong＞"Black Mason's embrace of this gloriously gendered and racialized narrative of the Masonic genesis is attributable to...

Delaney bolsters the image of black freemasonry by establishing the roots of masonry date back to black men which included King Solomon among their ranks.＜/p＞ ＜p＞About the author:＜/p＞ ＜p＞Martin Robison Delany (May 6, 1812 - January 24, 1885) was an African-American abolitionist, journalist, physician, soldier, and writer, and arguably the first proponent of black nationalism. Delany is credited with the Pan-African slogan of "Africa for Africans."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Born as a free person of color in Charles Town, Virginia, now West Virginia (not Charleston, West Virginia) and raised in Chambersburg and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Delany trained as a physician's assistant. During the cholera epidemics of 1833 and 1854 in Pittsburgh, Delany treated patients, even though many doctors and residents fled the city out of fear of contamination. In this period, people did not know how the disease was transmitted.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Delany traveled in the South in 1839 to observe slavery firsthand. Beginning in 1847, he worked alongside Frederick Douglass in Rochester, New York to publish the North Star. In 1850, Delany was one of the first three black men admitted to Harvard Medical School, but all were dismissed after a few weeks because of widespread protests by white students.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Delany dreamed of establishing a settlement in West Africa. He visited Liberia, a United States colony founded by the American Colonization Society, and lived in Canada for several years, but when the American Civil War began, he returned to the United States. When the United States Colored Troops were created in 1863, he recruited for them. Commissioned as a major in February 1865, Delany became the first African-American field grade officer in the United States Army.＜/p＞ ＜p＞After the Civil War, Delany went to the South, settling in South Carolina. There he worked for the Freedmen's Bureau and became politically active, including in the Colored Conventions Movement. Delany ran unsuccessfully for Lieutenant Governor as an Independent Republican. He was appointed as a trial judge, but he was removed following a scandal. Delany later switched his party affiliation.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Once Bitten【電子書籍】[ Adrian Hunter ]

＜p＞It isnt easy being an evil genius. Just ask Donovan Grant, author of the Internets first foolproof copyright-protection software. Hollywood adores him, but hes no hero to the millions who loved downloading free copies of their favorite TV shows. Insanely rich, or maybe just insane, he blew his royalties on a private island in the Caribbean where he pursues his not-so-private obsessions, like photographing young ladies bound in expensive leather and posting the results on his no-cost web site, exsx.org.＜/p＞ ＜p＞But when your sexual preference is dominance, nothing less than world domination will do. With the help of a wide-eyed apprentice from Glasgow, a ganja-sucking bodyguard, a jaded hacker, and a surly cheerleader-turned-dominatrix named Sindie, Grant is getting ready to launch his revenge on everyone who thinks hes nothing but a one-trick ponyboy who got lucky.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Like Carroll Farmer, the take-no-prisoners tech reporter with a few axes to grind, preferably on whomevers tied to her bed tonight. Sparks (and other implements) fly when her editor/former flame sends her across the Atlantic to profile the reclusive Mr. Grant. Carroll is determined to uncover Donovans secrets, but events and emotions conspire to expose a few of her own, resulting in a wild ride through the dark side of dreams made real.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dazzling, occasionally depraved and inevitably breathless, ＜em＞Once Bitten＜/em＞ reads like a turbocharged duet between Carl Hiassen and the Marquis de Sade. Award-winning authors Adrian Hunter and Chelsea Shepard have concocted a seriously-sexy caper that spans the globe in search of nice vice, twisted truths, cruel love and freedom in restraint.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Waging an Unwinnable War The Communist Insurgency in Malaysia (1948?1989)【電子書籍】[ Lim Cheng Leng ]

＜p＞Chairman Mao Tse-tung declared: "Every Communist must grasp the truth, 'Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun'..." Mao's dictum provided the guiding principle for the protracted armed struggle of the Communist Party of Malaya/Malaysia over a 40-year period, from the start of its guerrilla war in mid-1948 to the signing of the peace agreement to conclude the futile conflict in early December 1989. Although the CPM saw its contention for power as one continuous and non-stop campaign, the Government side recorded the Communist insurgency as Emergency I (1948-60), punctuated by a somewhat indetermnate interval, and then followed by "undeclared" Emergency II (1968-80). Emergency I ended in abject failure for the Communists. For the winning side, the unprecedented success in counter-insurgency wasthen described as "the only true complete victory over communist insurgency won by a former colonial power (Britain) and a newly emergent nation (Malaya) since 1945 (after World War II). While the first-round insurrection was reportedly initiated by a directive from Moscow, the second round was planned and directed as well as financed in Peking. Following Mao's demse in September 1976, the new paramount ruler in China Deng Xiaoping consigned the banner of revolution to history. It spelled the end of the Commuunist Revolution in Malaya/Malaysia. Rather than a narrative, this book offers an analytical study of the unwinnable war waged by Malayan/Malaysian disciples of the great revolutionary genius and grandmaster Mao Tse-tung.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Albert Einstein: A Short Biography Father of the Theory of Relativity【電子書籍】[ Doug West ]

＜p＞For a man that would be known the world over for his genius, Albert Einstein had a rather unimpressive childhood. It would not be until his mid-twenties that his insight into nature and its connection with mathematics became apparent. Working as a Swiss patent clerk, he would squirrel away his research papers in his desk and work on them when no one was looking. During his “miracle year” of 1905, Einstein would produce four papers that would revolutionize theoretical physics. One of the masterworks would later earn him a Nobel Prize and another paper covering his Special Theory of Relativity would upset the foundations of physics set forth by Sir Isaac Newton.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Though Einstein’s professional career lead to world renown, his personal like was often in shambles ? a failed marriage, estrangement from his children, and his time wondering as a refugee. After the rise of the Nazi party in Germany, his Jewish ancestry forced him to flee to the United States with his second wife to find a new homeland. Einstein finished his brilliant career at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton working on his “theory of everything” or a unified field theory ? with no success.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This readable, compact biography surveys in concise terms the life and times of this towering figure. By the end of this short book, you will not only understand how the genius of Albert Einstein shaped our past, but how it continues to subtly influence the world in which we all live.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

In ＜em＞Neutrino Hunters＜/em＞, the renowned astrophysicist and award-winning writer Ray Jayawardhana takes us on a thrilling journey into the shadowy world of neutrinos and the colorful lives of those who seek them. Demystifying particle science along the way, Jayawardhana tells a detective story with cosmic implicationsーinterweaving tales of the sharp-witted theorist Wolfgang Pauli; the troubled genius Ettore Majorana; the harbinger of the atomic age Enrico Fermi; the notorious Cold War defector Bruno Pontecorvo; and the dynamic dream team of Marie and Pierre Curie. Then there are the scientists of today who have caught the neutrino bug, and whose experimental investigations stretch from a working nickel mine in Ontario to a long tunnel through a mountain in central Italy, from a nuclear waste site in New Mexico to a bay on the South China Sea, and from Olympic-size pools deep underground to a gigantic cube of Antarctic iceーcalled, naturally, IceCube.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As Jayawardhana recounts a captivating saga of scientific discovery and celebrates a glorious human quest, he reveals why the next decade of neutrino hunting will redefine how we think about physics, cosmology, and our lives on Earth.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Hitler: Philosopher King【電子書籍】[ Mark Morris ]

＜p＞Hitler and the NSDAP (Nazi party) are a social and historical phenomenon, Hitler’s Aspergic personality and postmodern philosophy combined to enable both his personal political success and then the postmodern power state that he constructed. By refracting the issues through leadership, psychiatric, sociological and philosophical disciplinary prisms, the hypothesis in this book proposes a synergy between Hitler's autistic leadership genius and the contemporaneously emergent radical postmodern ideas.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The collective insanity that seemed to sweep over the whole of the German nation with the Hitler phenomenon requires an additional explanation to the traditional version of the proud nation humiliated in Versailles. The extremity of the collective delusion, the racist, grandiose and murderous ideas of Hitler and the NSDAP that can emerge in small, paranoid, fanatic sects; these were adopted, embraced by, and then fought for by a whole nation, and perhaps the most educated, civilised, and cultured nation globally at that time. This phenomenon requires an explanation additional to the historical and structural accounts that currently prevail.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book constructs such an explanation as a hypothesis; an account to bridge this conceptual gap. It argues that Hitler and the NSDAP as a phenomenon were different. Hitler and his NSDAP were not just another political party lead by another charismatic demagogue. Hitler and the NSDAP were a product of a unique moment in the cultural and philosophical evolution of human kind. Part of the tragedy of the Great War was the Generals catching up with the paradigm shift in the lethal effectiveness brought about by progress in the military technology. This thesis argues that the Hitler and NSDAP phenomenon was brought about by humanity as a whole catching up with the paradigm shift in the human condition brought about by the developments in philosophy and culture over the turn of the 19th and 20th century that later came to be known as postmodernism. Hitler and the NSDAP were able to opportunistically surf the tsunami of these new ideas as they crashed through western cultural givens and beliefs, allowing Hitler and the NSDAP to create their New Order in its wake.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hitler was an Aspergic savant-genius in in his achievement of Chancellorship with a party that had 30 or 40 members a mere decade before; in the innovation of his political campaigns and strategies, then in his manipulation of other national leaders when he obtained a place on the world stage. On questions of values, ethics, relationships, the emotional and kinship bonds and cultural assumptions that comprises the fabric of societies and social groupings; on these issues he was an empty autistic vessel. But this was also a strength, in that he was able to reinvent a structure of ethics, value and assumptions, unencumbered by relationships, emotional ties, that would have given him pause in his pursuit of his aim.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hitler's Asperger’s enabled him to single-mindedly pursue personal and political power. The postmodern state created did not rest on historical, religious or cultural traditions. Nietzsche’s crystallization of the previous century and a half of German idealism in a rigorous moral and cultural nihilism, could be reified and rolled out with Weberian bureaucratic and Prussian militaristic efficiency. Ideology could be shaped instrumentally in order to yield the maximal amount of the only currency that survives the caustic deconstruction of postmodernism, namely power itself＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】History of the Scottish Regiments in the British Army【電子書籍】[ Archibald K. Murray ]

＜p＞Our last chapter closed the dark record which unhappily clouds the early history of the Royal Scots Dragoons, and it is with pleasure we turn from the record of these unnatural and suicidal wars to narrate the nobler deeds of the regiment on a nobler field. The accession of William, Prince of Orange, to the throne, is not to be regarded merely as the triumph of the Protestant party, but as involving the dawn of freedom to an oppressed people; as the guarantee of liberty of conscience; and as the harbinger of peace, especially to distressed Scotland. In 1694, the Royal Scots Dragoons, accompanied by Cunningham’s Scots Dragoonsーnow the Seventh (Queen’s Own) Hussarsーand associated with the First (Royal English), the Third (King’s Own Hussars), the Fourth (Queen’s Own Hussars), and the Fifth (Royal Irish Lancers) Dragoons, were sent over to the Netherlands against the French. Here they represented the nation with credit, especially at the siege of Namur, until the conclusion of peace, four years afterwards, permitted their return. Unfortunately, the peace was not of long duration, and afforded but a short respite, during which the regiment was remounted on grey horses, as a corps ?lite. The question of the Spanish succession rousing the ambition of France, the flames of war were again rekindled. Accordingly, in 1702, the regiment was called to maintain the honour of their country on the plains of Holland. The earlier campaigns were chiefly made up with a variety of siegesーVenloo, Ruremonde, Stevenswaert, Liege, Bonn, Huy, Limburg, &c., in all of which the regiment had a part. Lord Hay, afterwards Marquis of Tweeddale, this year (1704) purchased the colonelcy of the regiment. The daring spirit and rising genius of Marlborough, who then commanded the British army, aspiring to something mightier, turning his eye towards Germany, selected a grander field of actionーplanned a campaign, which, taking Europe by surprise, fell like a thunderbolt upon the foe, and produced the most glorious results. The soldierly bearing of the Royal Scots Dragoons had already attracted the keen eye of the Commander-in-Chief, and won for them this tribute to their fidelity and worth, inasmuch as they were selected to be his own body-guard. They were, moreover, destined to lead the van, or, at all events, to assume a first place in the memorable actions of the campaign. Their firmness and valour helped their great commander to a great renown, as they were honoured to share with him the dangers and the glories of the campaign, and so “win laurels that shall never fade.” Not less brave, although not so favoured, were the gallant troops which accompanied the Royal Scots Dragoons in the marvellous march from the Netherlands to Germany, and who alike contributed to the success of the expedition. These comprised the First (King’s), the Third (Prince of Wales’), the Fifth (Princess Charlotte of Wales’), the Sixth (Carabineers), the Seventh (Princess Royal’s) Dragoon Guards, and the Fifth (Royal Irish Lancers) Dragoons; besides the infantry which followed, including the Foot Guards, the First (Royal Scots), the Third (East Kent Buffs), the Eighth (the King’s), the Tenth (North Lincoln), the Fifteenth (York, East Riding), the Sixteenth (Bedfordshire), the Eighteenth (Royal Irish), the Twenty-first (Royal North British Fusiliers), the Twenty-third (Royal Welsh Fusiliers), the Twenty-fourth (Warwickshire), the Twenty-Sixth (Cameronians), and the Thirty-seventh (North Hampshire) regiments of Foot. Marlborough having successfully accomplished with rapidity and secrecy this masterly man?uvre, and united his army to the Imperialistsーhardly allowing the French and Bavarians time to know, far less to recover from their surpriseーimmediately prepared for action.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Bravest of the Brave, or, with Peterborough in Spain【電子書籍】[ George Alfred Henty ]

＜p＞There are few great leaders whose lives and actions have so completely fallen into oblivion as those of the Earl of Peterborough. His career as a general was a brief one, extending only over little more than a year, and yet in that time he showed a genius for warfare which has never been surpassed, and performed feats of daring worthy of taking their place among those of the leaders of chivalry. The fact that they have made so slight a mark upon history is due to several reasons. In the first place, they were overshadowed by the glory and successes of Marlborough; they were performed in a cause which could scarcely be said to be that of England, and in which the public had a comparatively feeble interest; the object, too, for which he fought was frustrated, and the war was an unsuccessful one, although from no fault on his part. But most of all, Lord Peterborough failed to attain that place in the list of British worthies to which his genius and his bravery should have raised him, because that genius was directed by no steady aim or purpose. Lord Peterborough is, indeed, one of the most striking instances in history of genius and talent wasted, and a life thrown away by want of fixed principle and by an inability or unwillingness to work with other men. He quarreled in turn with every party and with almost every individual with whom he came in contact; and while he himself was constantly changing his opinions, he was intolerant of all opinions differing from those which he at the moment held, and was always ready to express in the most open and offensive manner his contempt and dislike for those who differed from him. His eccentricities were great; he was haughty and arrogant, hasty and passionate; he denied his God, quarreled with his king, and rendered himself utterly obnoxious to every party in the state.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
