Il y a un an peine, le 10 mai 1860, Florence voyait s' teindre une des plus brillantes intelligences, l'un des plus nobles coeurs qui aient honor l'Union am ricaine: Th odore Parker succombait l'inexorable maladie dont il avait en vain demand la gu rison au doux climat de l'Europe m ridionale. Il n'avait pas cinquante ans. Sa mort pr matur e tait sainte comme celle d'un martyr, car elle avait pour cause l'exc s de son d vouement la v rit religieuse et sociale. Sans jamais calculer, Parker avait prodigu dans la lutte tout ce que sa vigoureuse constitution lui avait donn d' nergie physique. Il mourait avant d'avoir vu se lever le jour qu'il avait tant de fois pr dit, o la r publique am ricaine aurait honte enfin du hideux ulc re que l'esclavage attache ses flancs. Il tait heureusement de ces coeurs de lion qui n'ont pas besoin pour combattre jusqu' la fin d' tre encourag s par le succ s...
... Le voyageur qui longe la c te africaine de la Mer-Rouge et qui n'a eu sous les yeux, depuis Suez, que des dunes ou de petites montagnes fauves, d cousues, monotones d'aspect, voit, en approchant de l' lot madr porique de Massaoua, se profiler l'horizon une sorte de longue et haute muraille que dominent, comme des vigies, trois ou quatre cimes ordinairement perdues dans les nuages. C'est la rampe la plus avanc e d'un immense plateau de deux cents lieues de large sur une longueur encore mal d termin e, et ce plateau, qui surplombe le littoral d'une hauteur moyenne de 2,300 m tres, est toute l'Abyssinie. Jamais tat n'eut ses limites trac es d'une main plus inflexible par la nature. Ce plateau, qui a la temp rature moyenne de l'Europe centrale, et o peine un vingti me du sol demeure sans culture, est compos de terres arables pouvant lutter de f condit avec celles de la Flandre ou de l'Ukraine, sillonn es par deux fleuves et deux cents rivi res ou ruisseaux permanents dont les eaux, habilement am nag es, entretiennent partout la v g tation et la vie...

This book is an autobiography written by Theodore Roosevelt, one of the most impressive figures of the entire American History. Statesman, historian, writer, explorer, soldier and naturalist, Roosevelt leads us through his life discovering at the same time his political ideals and his love of the frontier and the great outdoors. Contents: Boyhood and Youth The Vigor of Life Practical Politics In Cowboy Land Applied Idealism The New York Police The War of America the Unready The New York Governorship Outdoors and Indoors The Presidency; Making an Old Party Progressive The Natural Resources of the Nation The Big Stick and the Square Deal Social and Industrial Justice The Monroe Doctrine and the Panama Canal
Most of the letters in this book were written by Theodore Roosevelt to his children during a period of more than twenty years. A few others are included which he wrote to friends or relatives about the children. He began to write to them in their early childhood, and continued to do so regularly till they reached maturity. Whenever he was separated from them, in the Spanish War, or on a hunting trip, or because they were at school, he sent them these messages of constant thought and love, for they were never for a moment out of his mind and heart. Long before they were able to read he sent them what they called "picture letters," with crude drawings of his own illustrations of the written text, drawings precisely adapted to the childish imagination and intelligence. That the little recipients cherished these delightful missives is shown by the tender care with which they preserved them from destruction. They are in good condition after many years of loving usage. A few of them are reproduced on these pages—written at different periods as each new child appeared in the household.

Theodore Metochites' Sententious notes : Semeioseis gnomikai 61-70 & 72-81 - a critical edition with introduction, translation, notes, and indexes

This volume contains a critical edition, with an English translation and notes, of 20 chapters of the Semeioseis gnomikai ("Sententious notes") of the Byzantine statesman Theodore Metochites (1270-1332). The introduction gives an extensive, partly new, description and assessment of the manuscripts as physical objects and in their relationship to each other. The manuscripts discussed, and used in the edition, are the Par. gr. 2003 (P) and Marc. gr. 532 (M), both of the fourteenth century, and, wherever M is illegible, the Scor. gr. 248 (E), a sixteenth-century copy of M. In the edition, the reading of P (including the corrections by the main copyist, Michael Klostomalles, as well as a manus secunda) is generally adopted as the authoritative text. The volume concludes with a bibliography, an index of passages, and an index of names. The discussion in the essays touches upon several subjects, more or less related to each other. Among these are the ignorance of man and the difficulty to know anything, and the moral side of seeking an active life as opposed to "living hidden".
Theodore Roosevelt presided over the United States as president from 1901 to 1912. For the Republican and Progressive parties, he held the position of party leader. In addition to being a skilled historian, naturalist, explorer, hunter, and author, he was a fantastic performer. Teddy Roosevelt was a sickly youngster who battled asthma and other illnesses before becoming the Bull Moose. Teddy entered politics after earning his Harvard degree, but that didn't stop him from producing The Naval War of 1812 in 1882, which helped him establish himself as a respected author and historian. Young Teddy was given the President after McKinley's murder in 1901.Despite losing the election, the incident appropriately reflected Teddy's reputation as a men's man.Roosevelt's health rapidly deteriorated, and he passed away in 1919, having established himself as an American legend. Teddy is known today for his accomplishments as an explorer, hunter, novelist, soldier, president, and safari adventurer, which collectively form a singular reputation. Get the truth from the Moose about Teddy's life.
