Power, Plain English, and the Rise of Modern Poetry

Power, Plain English, and the Rise of Modern PoetryIn this engaging book David Rosen offers a radically new account of Modern poetry and revises our understanding of its relation to Romanticism. British poets from Wordsworth to Auden attempted to present themselves simultaneously as persons of power and as moral voices in their communities. The modern lyric derives its characteristic complexities—psychological, ethical, formal—from the extraordinary difficulty of this effort.

Disney Educational - BN- Flight (VIDEO)How do birds fly? How do planes lift off? What about helicopters? In Bill Nye the Science Guy: Flight, the standup scientist explains the forces that make flight possible.

His bad jokes are entertaining, and his experience as a standup comedian is invaluable for holding kids' attention.

A History of Russia

A History of RussiaA History of Russia

In order to assure brevity and clarity without missing the spirit of Russia or losing a sense of the complexities of life (ever-present complexities which can be unraveled only in retrospect by historians), particular care has been taken to supplement the text with appropriate appendices. The chronological table, for instance, divulges by the very sequence of events the logical and sometimes illogical course of his- tory and its influence on our lives. The maps reveal better than any description the causes and results of major trends. The index provides a biographical dictionary and a glossary of foreign terms, particularly useful.
