Between the Avant-garde and the Everyday
The wave of anti-authoritarian political activity associated with the term “1968” can by no means be confined under the rubric of “protest,” understood narrowly in terms of street marches and other reactions to state initiatives. Indeed, the actions generated in response to “1968” frequently involved attempts to elaborate resistance within the realm of culture generally, and in the arts in particular. This blurring of the boundary between art and politics was a characteristic development of the political activism of the postwar period. This volume brings together a group of essays concerned with the multifaceted link between culture and politics, highlighting lesser-known case studies and opening new perspectives on the development of anti-authoritarian politics in Europe from the 1950s to the fall of Communism and beyond.
Second Timothy
Second Timothy encourages pastors to guard, entrust, suffer for, and above all, preach the gospel. Yet it is also full of encouragement for Christians living in a hostile world. Like Timothy, we need reminding that “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” We need to “be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus” and confident in the Scriptures, which are “given by inspiration of God.” And we need to hope in Christ’s return, when He will award the crown of righteousness “to all who have loved His appearing.” Michael G. Brown’s exposition of 2 Timothy is not only Christ-centered, redemptive-historical, and gospel focused, but ...
Confirmatory Factor Analysis for Applied Research, Second Edition
This accessible book has established itself as the go-to resource on confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) for its emphasis on practical and conceptual aspects rather than mathematics or formulas.

The text shows how to formulate, program, and interpret CFA models using popular latent variable software packages (LISREL, Mplus, EQS, SAS/CALIS); understand the similarities ...
Sixties Europe
This history of emancipatory left-wing politics examines the border-crossing uprisings of the 1960s, on both sides of the Cold War divide.
Weimar Radicals
Exploring the gray zone of infiltration and subversion in which the Nazi and Communist parties sought to influence and undermine each other, this book offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between two defining ideologies of the twentieth century. The struggle between Fascism and Communism is situated within a broader conversation among right- and left-wing publicists, across the Youth Movement and in the “National Bolshevik” scene, thus revealing the existence of a discourse on revolutionary legitimacy fought according to a set of common assumptions about the qualities of the ideal revolutionary. Highlighting the importance of a masculine-militarist politics of youth revolt operative in both Marxist and anti-Marxist guises, Weimar Radicals forces us to re-think the fateful relationship between the two great ideological competitors of the Weimar Republic, while offering a challenging new interpretation of the distinctive radicalism of the interwar era.
Poetic Madman
I am an adult male who lives with a psychiatric disorder called paranoid schizophrenia. "Poetic Madman" showcases the creativity of a man with an oft time deadly illness. "Poetic Madman" opens up the minds of those who don't understand the illness. Hopefully it will help dispel some of the stigmas. Hopefully persons such as myself won't be vilified, persecuted and avoided. Hopefully some of the mysteries surrounding it can eventually be understood. You may find yourself empathizing for those living with the illness. This work of art is not written to separate. Rather it is written to hopefully unite a world full of differences. Identification is the key. Come take this journey of thought, perceptions, unapologetic, unadulterated madness. Explore the experiences of a man such as myself. Indulge yourselves in the knowledge, wisdom and understandings uniquely expressed through my work. Revere the faith, hope and love instilled in my heart, mind and soul. Respect the man who dares to expose himself to the world! Enjoy the ride! Timothy Paul Brown

Psalms and Consolations

The Faith of Men
First published in 1904, this volume contains some of Jack London's best short stories, including: “A Relic of the Pliocene”, “A Hyperborean Brew”, “The Faith of Men”, “Too Much Gold”, “The One Thousand Dozen”, “The Marriage Lit-lit”, “Batard”, and “The Story of Jees Uck”. John Griffith London (1876 – 1916), commonly known as Jack London, was an American journalist, social activist, and novelist. He was an early pioneer of commercial magazine fiction, becoming one of the first globally-famous celebrity writers who were able to earn a large amount of money from their writing. London is famous for his contributions to early science fiction and also notably belonged to "The Crowd", a literary group an Francisco known for its radical members and ideas. These fantastic stories are highly recommended for lovers of the form and constitute must-reads for fans of London's writing. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
