Two Brothers

In the late fifties, as more and more immigrants migrated to the U.S., in a way it was kind of disheartening for them because they had to go through some kind of physical checkup and some were held in quarantine until the authorities were satisfied with the outcome of whatever the illness was. The percentage of these cases, were very low and eventually they were accepted into this country, which today that is not the case. This particular family had no such problems and that made the transition much enjoyable. These two particular brothers were unique in their own ways and accepted what life put in front of their paths. They faced the problems and the pleasures of life, without having someone else take responsibility for their actions, even though at times the actions that they took were not the most favorable ones. It was rare that they disagreed on whatever they had to do, but as human beings, we have our moments where we as individuals are never wrong. Even though age between two brothers as they grow up makes a difference, there comes that special moment when at a certain age, equality just introduced itself to them and they handled it very well.

A Unifying Enlightenment

This book contains a systematic study of economic institutions during the Spanish Enlightenment in the areas of print culture (the press, merchants’ handbooks, teaching materials), education (university chairs in political economy and commerce) and the organisation of financial matters at state level (economic societies, trade consulates and the official statistics agency). A Unifying Enlightenment is a fresh interpretation of political economy’s contribution to the development of the European Enlightenment. Jesús Astigarraga shows that, far from being a straightforward intellectual phenomenon, this new science played a crucial role in both the circulating and institutionalisation of Enlightenment culture and the process of political unification and articulation undergone by the Spanish monarchy, which culminated in a constitutional culture.

Michel learns that his father is dying. This news precipitates a nostalgic journey into the past--a childhood spent on a dairy farm in French Québec. As a sensitive boy secluded from the world, Michel wavers between forbidden exploits and heartbreaking tribulations. Catholic school is a culture shock, but it's the huge pumpkin-shaped teacher with a bad temper who terrorizes his brain most. On the farm, his young life abounds with fun and danger--mad bulls, dynamite sticks, runaway darts, lethal ice cubes, and hazardous farm equipment. After struggling with a dismal economy, his family is forced to abandon their home. They desert their isolated farmhouse and move into a cockroach-infested apartment in an English-speaking city one mile from the seductive United States border. There, Michel copes with bullies, Russian spies, and ghosts. Little Canuck recounts the humorous, and at times, heartrending memoirs of a young boy on his journey through a colorful landscape of emotion. Along the way, young Michel uncovers the mysteries of female anatomy, and learns poignant truths about mortality. His most profound lessons are not learned at school.
