  The Aesthetic and Decadent Movement of the late 19th century spawned the idea of "Art for Art's Sake," challenged aesthetic standards and shocked the bourgeosie. From Walter Pater's study, "The Renaissance to Salome, the truly decadent collaboration between Oscar Wilde and Aubrey Beardsley, Karl Beckson has chosen a full spectrum of works that chronicle the British artistic achievement of the 1890s. In this revised edition of a classic anthology, "The Ballad of Reading Gaol" has been included in its entirety; the bibliography has been completely updated; Professor Beckson's notes and commentary have been expanded from the first edition published in 1966. The so-called Decadent or Aesthetic period remains one of the most interesting in the history of the arts. The poetry and prose of such writers as Yeats, Wilde, Symons, Johnson, Dowson, Barlas, Pater and others are included in this collection, along with sixteen of Aubrey Beardsley's drawings.

  THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND WASHINGTON POST BESTSELLERA call to action from three of Washington's premier political scholar-journalists, One Nation After Trump offers the definitive work on the threat posed by the Trump presidency and how to counter it.American democracy was never supposed to give the nation a president like Donald Trump. We have never had a president who gave rise to such widespread alarm about his lack of commitment to the institutions of self-government, to the norms democracy requires, and to the need for basic knowledge about how government works. We have never had a president who raises profound questions about his basic competence and his psychological capacity to take on the most challenging political office in the world.Yet if Trump is both a threat to our democracy and a product of its weaknesses, the citizen activism he has inspired is the antidote. The reaction to the crisis created by Trump’s presidency can provide the foundation for an era of democratic renewal and vindicate our long experiment in self-rule.The award-winning authors of One Nation After Trump explain Trump’s rise and the danger his administration poses to our free institutions. They also offer encouragement to the millions of Americans now experiencing a new sense of citizenship and engagement and argue that our nation needs a unifying alternative to Trump’s dark and divisive brand of politics—an alternative rooted in a New Economy, a New Patriotism, a New Civil Society, and a New Democracy. One Nation After Trump is the essential book for our era, an unsparing assessment of the perils facing the United States and an inspiring roadmap for how we can reclaim the future.

  The Korean Famine of 1950-1953 -...

  Before the Korean War and the subsequent famine that gripped the Korean Peninsula from 1950 to 1953, Korea was a land marked by centuries of history, cultural development, and foreign influence. In the early 20th century, the Korean people were under the harsh rule of Japanese colonialism, which lasted from 1910 to 1945. During this period, the Japanese occupation had devastating effects on the Korean economy, agriculture, and society. The Japanese implemented policies that restructured the land distribution system, forced farmers to increase rice production for export, and destroyed much of the local economy in the process. This left the Korean Peninsula struggling with a weakened agricultural system and an economy dependent on Japan. 
  After Japan’s defeat in World War II, Korea was liberated in 1945. However, this newfound freedom came with its own set of challenges. The peninsula was divided along the 38th parallel into two zones of occupation, with the Soviet Union controlling the north and the United States occupying the south. This division set the stage for the creation of two separate Korean states: the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) in the north, and the Republic of Korea (South Korea) in the south. Both nations had vastly different political systems, economies, and ideologies, leading to a growing tension between the two that would ultimately culminate in the outbreak of the Korean War in 1950. 
  In the years leading up to the war, both North and South Korea were in a fragile state. The land was still reeling from the effects of the Japanese occupation, and the infrastructure was damaged and underdeveloped. The North, under the leadership of Kim Il-sung, began implementing communist policies and land reforms that were intended to restructure the economy. Meanwhile, the South, under the leadership of Syngman Rhee, leaned toward a more capitalist and democratic system.
