VG. ., Boston: Bedford / St. Martin's, 1999. 0312157118, 0, ISBN: 9781840220964Wordsworth Editions Ltd, 05 September 2008Soft cover, 432 pagesWith an introduction by Dr. Laurence Marlow.A spectre is haunting Europe (and the world). Not, in the twenty-first century, the spectre of communism, but the spectre of capitalism. Marx's prediction that the state would wither away of its own accord has proved inaccurate, and he did not foresee the tyrannies which have ruled large parts of the globe in his name. Indeed, he would have been appalled if he had witnessed them. But his analysis of the evils and dangers of raw capitalism is as correct now as when it was written, and some of his suggestions (progressive income tax, abolition of child labour, free education for all children) are now accepted with little question. In a world where capitalism is no longer held in check by fear of a communist alternative, The Communist Manifesto (with Socialism Utopian and Scientific, Engels's brief and clear exposition of Marxist thought) is essential reading.The Condition of the Working Class in England in 1844 is Engels's first, and probably best-known, book. With Henry Mayhew's London Labour and the London Poor, it was and is the outstanding study of the working class in Victorian England., 0, Vintage Classics, 2018-09-01. Paperback.

After the opening essay on the general significance of literature, Eco examines a number of major authors from the Western canon.A stimulating chapter on the poetic qualities of Dante's Paradiso is followed by one on the style of the Communist Manifesto.The next three essays centre on nineteenth - and early twentieth-century literature: one on the French writer Nerval's masterpiece,'Sylvie' (a major influence on Eco and a novella that he translated into Italian), one on Oscar Wilde's love of paradox,and one on Joyce's views on language. The last three pieces deal with the road that leads from Cervantes via Swift to Borges' Library of Babel,then an essay on Eco's own anxiety about Borges' influence on him,and the volume ends with an article on the enigmatic Italian critic and anthropologist Piero Camporesi. On Literature is a provocative and entertaining collection of sprightly essays on the key texts that have shaped Eco the novelist and critic. This volume will appeal to anyone interested in how new light is shed on old masters by a great contemporary mind.

His latest book is It's Okay to Be White, coming soon from Ministry of Truth and available here for preorder and (eventually) at better bookstores around the world.Greg Johnson is one of the most censored writers of our time. His books have been banned from 80% of the global book market. His message has been deemed so dangerous to globalist elites that he has been deplatformed by YouTube and Facebook, stalked and harassed by violent thugs, jailed and deported by the Norwegian government, and economically strangled by banks and payment processors.Isn't it time you learned why? What is the message that politicians, bankers, and Silicon Valley oligarchs are teaming up to suppress?It's Okay to Be White is an ideal introduction to Greg Johnson's writings on race, ethnicity, and politics. It collects twenty-two of his most important essays from his earlier books. It also includes two essays that have not yet appeared in print. "The Very Idea of White Privilege" is the speech that Greg Johnson was supposed to give in Oslo in November of 2019. To prevent him from speaking, he was arrested and deported by the Norwegian government. The title essay, "It's Okay to Be White," explains why the global establishment is hellbent on suppressing even the most innocuous pro-white messages.Defy the censors. Defy the herd.
