Time has added to its value. The remarkable progress in the realm of Science has not abated man's yearning for the call of the quest. ![]() Free Download Bernard Fay, "Revival: Roosevelt and His America" English | 2019 | ISBN: 1138569097 | EPUB | pages: 360 | 0.6 mb President Roosevelt gave an opportunity to study American energy and initiative and its freedom from all formulas and methods. During the eventful months of 1933 the President and the people of the United States proved that they were able to discard the past entirely - everything, even the most valuable and cherished tradition - to keep life and activity in the country, to keep the nation alive, working and going ahead. ![]() Free Download Ludwig Henrich Friedlaender, "Revival: Roman Life and Manners Under the Early Empire" English | 2018 | ISBN: 1138557579 | EPUB | pages: 726 | 1.3 mb Every attempted delineation of the manners and customs of Imperial Rome must necessarily include a survey, as exhaustive as may be, of the spectacles, as the best measure of her grandeur, and as indicative in many ways of her moral and intellectual condition. ![]() Free Download Prem Chand Lal, "Revival: Reconstruction and Education in Rural India: In the light of the Programme Carried on at Sriniketan the Institute of Rural Reconstruction" English | 2018 | ISBN: 1138552593, 1138565172 | EPUB | pages: 262 | 0.8 mb This book explores the problems present in Bengal villages specifically, which represent problems found within the rest of rural India, therefore the same measures with very little modification could be employed in the work of rural reconstruction and rural education in those parts. ![]() Free Download Ford Madox Ford, "Revival: Provence from Minstrels to the Machine: From Minstrels to the Machine" English | 2018 | ISBN: 1138554073 | EPUB | pages: 370 | 2.6 mb "Provence" may perhaps be described as the crystallisation of the main idea running through the Great Trade Route, which we published a year ago. Of that book Mr A.G. McDonnell wrote in the Observer: "It is an Indictment, a Philipic....I know of no books to compare with this since Winwood Reade's Martyrdom of Man" But if "The Great Trade Route" was the destructive onslaught on dubious aspects of contemporary civilisation, "Provence" is the celebration of what might have been and what, according to Mr. Ford, may still yet be - contrasted with what is. For in that triangle of sun-baked , wind-swept, austere yet generous land, bounded as to its base by the Mediterranean and as to its sides, by the Rhone and the Alps, Mr Ford sees all the pride of past European splendour, the small healthy core of Europe's ailing present, the only promise for her future. How and why he sees all this his book alone can reveal, with its history, its moralisings, its descriptions vitalised and clarified by art. ![]() Free Download E G Liberman, Arlo Schultz, "Revival: Economic Methods & the Effectiveness of Production" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1138045845, 1138045837 | EPUB | pages: 240 | 0.9 mb This title was first published in 1971: Aims to provide an exciting and psychologically penetrating account of the life of Russia's 18th century tsar/reformer and the theme of progress through violence in Russia. ![]() Free Download S. Radhakrishnan, J. H. Muirhead, "Revival: Contemporary Indian Philosophy" English | 2019 | ISBN: 1138565296, 1138553034 | EPUB | pages: 384 | 0.5 mb The book includes essay which are all written by philosophers of or about forty -five years of age. They fall into two main groups: those in which the writer devotes himself chiefly to the exposition of the great Vedic tradition as he has apprehended it and made it the basis of his own life's work; and those in which the writer, while on the whole remining true to the spirit of that tradition, has sought to give new interpretations of it, either by instituting comparisons of it with the Western doctrines most closely allied to it or by treating of modern problems in a way which, though suggested by what he has learned from the West, is yet stamped with the mark of his own racial sympathy. Western readers will naturally find the latter group more attractive; but this volume will have failed of its purpose if it does not give them some sense of the truth that underlies even the essays with which, owing to the presuppositions ion which these are founded, they find themselves least in sympathy. ![]() Free Download Virginia De Castro E Almeida, Bernard Miall, "Revival: Conquests and Discoveries of Henry the Navigator: Being the Chronicles of Azurara" English | 2019 | ISBN: 1138565253, 1138551260 | EPUB | pages: 266 | 1.9 mb A preface from the pen of the late Marshal Lyautey introduces this book, which is an abridged translation of the Chronicales of Gomes Eannes de Azura, recording the siege and capture of Ceuta by the Portuguese, and the discovery of Guinea. Ceuta was captured because of the sons of John I-who had married the daughter of John of Gaunt-were ripe for knighthood , and rebelled against the bourgeois notion of receiving the acolade during a series of State banquets. Nothing less than the taking of a city from the Infidels would serve their turn; their knighthood must be truly earned and so Portugal became posessed of Ceuta. The second part of the book deals with the discovery of Guinea, Senegal, and Sierra Leone by Lancarote and others. The Chronicles, which made most excellent reading, have been edited by Senhora Virgina de Castro e Almeida, who is compiling an anthology of contemporary accounts of the great Portuguese navigators and colonists of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. ![]() Free Download David Churchill Somervell, B.
