Ewout Storm van Leeuwen Boreal bushcraft

living in the wild from the wild; novel

What if you disconnect from society altogether? Urban nomads know what that's like, but they continue to live in the city in frayed corners and live on a kind of handouts and what others throw away. In countries with lots of nature and few inhabitants per square kilometer, some daredevils disconnect completely. They make a place where they live and live entirely self-sufficiently. Bushcraft is called that, the skill of living in the wild from the wild. They do have some trade with the "inhabited...

Epicureanism and scientific debates

antiquity and late reception

Epicureanism is not only a defence of pleasure: it is also a philosophy of science and knowledge. This edited collection explores new pathways for the study of Epicurean scientific thought, a hitherto still understudied domain, and engages systematically and critically with existing theories. It shows that the philosophy of Epicurus and his heirs, from antiquity to the classical age, founded a rigorous and coherent conception of knowledge. This first part of a two-volume set examines more specifically...

Fabio Bolzonar Catholicism and the welfare state in secular France

Even though the policy impact of Catholicism has increasingly been acknowledged, existing scholarship lacks a coherent view on its changing influence over time and in different political contexts. In this book, Fabio Bolzonar investigates the influence of Catholicism on developments in French social protection from World War II to the mid-2010s. He discusses the factors that have favoured or inhibited it and explores the hybridization between Catholic values and secular principles in the social engagement...

Hugo Grotius Annals of the war in the Low Countries

The Annals of the War in the Low Countries is one of Hugo Grotius' lesser-known works. Grotius expresses a contrarian view of the early revolt, which he presents not as a united battle for the true faith and the ancient liberties of the land but as a protracted and painful struggle, not only with the great power of Spain, but also with discord, selfishness and religious fanaticism among the Dutch. To convey this complex and controversial vision of the foundational years of the Dutch Republic, Grotius...

through the Arctic and a new Russia in search of Willem Barents

This is a book about the amazing journey of people discovering the Arctic island of Novaya Zemlya, looking for traces of a small historical event against the backdrop of the ending of the Soviet Union. At the start of the age of exploration, the North Pole was believed to be hiding a continent, a land mass warmed by the midnight sun still inspiring today's 'Lost World' fantasies. In the summer of 1596, two ships departed from Amsterdam to sail by its shores. The nine-month struggle for survival of...

Mohamad Mostafa Fakhri The Reign Of Solomon

The Second Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan in 1402 Anno Hegirae

The Jews believe that they will be spared suffering, pain and oppression because they have lived the norms and values through legislation that they have jointly drafted. Christians believe that they cannot be executed on Judgment Day because, on rather dubious reasoning, they crucified Jesus of Nazareth and made him pay the ultimate price, as it were, for the sins of subjects of Christian societies. The Muslims, with their different denominations, believe that salvation comes from the recognition...
