The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

"Kriminaalse raamatukogu" neljandas raamatus ilmub kaks kriminaalnäidendit, mida on mitmel suvel edukalt etendatud Kuressaare teatris. Näidendi "Testamenditäitjad" keskmes on dilemma õigusemõistmise ja moraali vahekorrast. Mida peab tegema inimene, kes usub, et toime on pandud kuritegu, aga tõendeid ei ole enam võimalik koguda ja puuduvad igasugused seaduslikud võimalused kurjategija karistamiseks? Saaremaal, Tagamõisa poolsaare üksildases talus kogunevad sugulased, et mälestada nende tädi esimest surma-aastapäeva. Üks neist on veendunud, et keegi sugulaste hulgast on süüdi tädi surmas. Ta on otsustanud astuda meeleheitliku sammu ja seadnud üles lõksu, et mõrtsukas paljastada. Näidendi "Trimmerdaja surm" tegevus toimub Riigikogu liikme Ott Pärgmaa sünnipäevapeol. Pidulised tuvastavad suure ehmatusega, et keegi nende seast peab olema tapnud trimmerdaja, kes nende koosviibimist valju trimmerdamisega segas. Kuna mõrvalooga seostamine võib hävitada nende avaliku maine ja ühiskondliku staatuse, otsustavad nad kuritegu varjata. Ainult üliõpilane Ursula ei suuda sellega leppida ja tahab kurjategija ise üles otsida. Sarjas "Kriminaalne raamatukogu" ilmub järgmisena Indrek Hargla romaan "Mõisa köis", milles 19. sajandi lõpu Eestis lahendab mõrvalugusid Juhan Liiv.

The Character of a Trimmer and Other Writings
George Savile Halifax
Oxford University Press
2025
nidottu
To know when to let things alone is a high pitch of good sense. George Savile, Marquess of Halifax was among the greatest statesmen of late seventeenth-century England and was a central figure in the Glorious Revolution of 1688. His pursuit of moderation during a time of fierce political controversy earned him the nickname The Trimmer. Halifax took this intended insult as a badge of honour, arguing that all good things trim between extremes and exist healthily between varieties of excess. His pamphlets, published anonymously during his lifetime, make the case for moderate and pragmatic action rooted in caution and compromise. They stand as an abiding critique of extremism and political tribalism. Halifaxs works on the nature of politics rest upon a practical and extensive experience of government. His detached and often jaded view of life lends a markedly distinctive quality to his thoughts on government, political parties, morality, marriage, and the human condition in general. This edition presents Halifaxs published works, including his political testament The Character of a Trimmer, a remarkable sketch of the character of King Charles II, and various sets of Thoughts and Reflections. An introductory essay sets Halifaxs work within the context of his time and emphasizes the continuing relevance of his thought.

Silicon Valley's blue collar "tree genius" Ari Stepp, an award winning arborist, author, videographer, inventor, researcher and citizen scientist, takes us on a delightful forestland journey that painlessly reveals some of the latest scientific discoveries about our astounding universe, in a thoughtful and entertaining way. He also takes us for a closer look "behind the curtain" of too much information and hyperbole, at the truer state of our current world, and how the latest innovations in technology could even help us to save our planet. Along the way we also explore the mysteries of life, consciousness, where we have come from, and where we as a species will most likely soon be. But beware, because you might never look at the universe in quite the same way after reading this provocative and informative book
This book was written in 1881 by William N. FitzGerald, a veteran of the carriage industry, was the most comprehensive addition to trade literature on the subject at the time of its publication. Rare, hard-to-find and long out of circulation, it is now back in print to inspire a new generation of carriage enthusiasts. For curators and carriage collectors, this in-depth and practical book is an invaluable resource that provides descriptive text and illustrations of numerous carriage interiors: from the everyday model to those suited for royalty. Furthermore, the book describes the complexity of materials leathers, silks, laces and range of skills (upholstering, tufting, stitching and binding, cutting enameled leathers, making leather sockets, welting, fabric selection, etc.) required for this branch of the carriage trade. It also includes recipes for cleaning, oiling and blacking leather, polishing metals and restoring ivory, among others. For conservators, restorers and dealers in antique furniture (especially upholstered 19th century furniture), this is an indispensable guideline and instructive manual for the upholstery trade in general. Tool collectors will benefit from the descriptions and illustrations of trimmers' tools such as stuffing sticks, round knives and shears.
