Generation WTF: From What the #$%&! to a Wise, Tenacious, and Fearless You: Advice on How to Get There from Experts and WTFers Just Like You - PDF
نویسندگان: Christine B. Whelan خلاصه: We all know what “WTF” usually stands for: it’s an exclamation of frustration and anger, and it’s an understandable reaction to the tough new economic realities that have hit young adults harder than any other group. WTF happened to promises of a bright future? What happened to the jobs? And what do we do now that the rules have changed?Recent college grads were raised in a time of affluence and entitlement, lulled into thinking that a golden future would just happen. With few role models to teach values like thrift, perseverance, and self-control, young adults are ill-equipped to cope with sacrifice and failure, and their dismal employment prospects are merely the most visible symptom of greater challenges.Fortunately, it’s not too late to change course. This optimistic, introspective, and technologically savvy generation already possesses many of the tools they need to thrive—if only they learn to harness the necessary skills for success.In Generation WTF, Christine Whelan does just that. Dr. Whelan, one of the foremost authorities on the history of the self-help genre, worked with more than one hundred young people to test and tweak the very best old-school advice and personalize it for the modern twenty-something. After a decade of researching the industry—and years advising “WTFers” as they struggle to make their way in the “real world”—Dr. Whelan knows firsthand what advice works and what Generation WTF has to offer.Rather than focusing on the frustration that “WTF” usually stands for, Dr. Whelan leads the charge to reclaim the acronym as a battle cry for a positive future: Generation WTF will be a wise, tenacious, and fearless generation, strengthened by purpose and hope. This practical new guide will show these WTFers the way to success and instill lasting habits that will serve them well in both good times and bad.

“I clothed you in purple”: The Rabbinic king-parables of the third-century Roman Empire - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Appelbaum, Alan. خلاصه: Abstract"I Clothed You in Purple"The Rabbinic King-Parables of the Third-Century Roman EmpireAlan AppelbaumMay 2007This is an analysis of comparisons the Rabbis made with kings, limited toRoman Palestine and to the ninety-year period beginning with the accession ofthe Emperor Septimius Severus in 193 C.E. and ending with the accession ofDiocletian. Based primarily on the original rabbinic texts, it also draws ontraditional Greek and Latin sources of imperial history and brings contemporarytheory to bear.A major part of the study re-examines current scholarly views aboutking-parables and finds them wanting - including the still prevalentpresupposition that "the king" is usually modeled on the emperor; the idea,recently renewed by Daniel Boyarin, that the Rabbis told the parables to makeTorah accessible to non-Rabbis; and, most important, the idea, championed byDavid Stern, that "the king," no matter what earthly ruler he is modeled on, isa stand-in for God. The study also supplements the ongoing work on king-parables being done by Clemens Thoma and his colleagues in Switzerland.As the study attends to the king-parables' form, structure, functions,settings and characters, it emphasizes the Rabbis' distinctive ideas about therelationship of humanity to God.Since the parables were produced by an intellectual elite in a countryoccupied by a world-empire, the study considers them as resistance literatureand explores what contemporary post-colonial theory and James C. Scott'swork concerning "hidden transcripts" may have to say about them.And since scholars of Roman history traditionally bemoan the paucity ofsources for the period, it poses the hypothesis that making comparisons to"kings" modeled on emperors or their representatives involves at least thinkingone knows something about them. The Rabbis' accounts of such "kings" notonly shed light on the attitudes of a group of literate citizens in a particulareastern province toward living, breathing emperors but also provideinformation about third-century imperial history, sometimes confirminggenerally accepted readings of traditional sources, sometimes supportingsources that have been regarded as questionable, and sometimes helping toresolve open issue
