In February 2015, Basford released a second book: Enchanted Forest: An Inky Quest & Colouring Book, and a third, Lost Ocean: An Inky Adventure and Colouring Book in October 2015. The book is modelled after the Brodick Castle Gardens on the Isle of Arran where Basford played as a child.By August 2015, Secret Garden had sold 6.8 million copies worldwide and launched the colouring trend for adults. The book's success is frequently cited as starting the adult coloring book trend. However they eventually relented and the first run quickly sold out. Initially the publisher was reluctant to release such an unorthodox book. Basford was inspired by several of her clients joking with her that they would enjoy colouring in her work, which was frequently done in black and white. While the publisher originally wanted a colouring book for children, Basford proposed one for adults. Basford had been approached by Laurence King Publishing in 2011 after the publisher had seen Basford's work online.

Much like The Golden Age, New Frontier is set primarily in the 1950s and depicts Golden Age superheroes Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman meeting Silver Age characters The Flash, Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter. The series was influenced by both DC Comics' long history and series like Kingdom Come, The Golden Age, Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns. The story was adapted into an animated film, Justice League: The New Frontier, which was released on February 26, 2008. The series was collected into two trade paperback volumes in 20, an Absolute Edition in 2006 and a deluxe edition in 2015.

It is a beautiful book told by a beautiful soul. There are as many smiles and poignant sighs as there are tears tucked inside its pages. It’s a love story written by a naturally introverted woman who found herself living a life she never imagined: thrust into the spotlight, she rolled with the punches, and giving as many as she got. It’s unconditional, focused love that brings people through the toughest times.īut I don’t want to leave the impression that the book is a downer, although I cried several times while reading it. There are things in life that simply can’t be “soldiered through” alone, no matter how stoic or disciplined you are. Biden offers no easy answers, but she does offer hope. They have endured fear, pain and unimaginable heartache they’ve witnessed it in other people’s lives, too, and done what they can to alleviate it where they can (especially with military families) while acknowledging it (viscerally) where they can’t.ĭr. The Bidens have been through hell far too many times, for as short a time as they’ve been alive. I ended up living her life right alongside her.

The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right.” Here, Thoreau discusses the point that the majority does not always have the best interest of the minorities at heart. Its is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right. Civil Disobedience: resisting acts of government that are against one’s conscience or morals, or that ultimately contribute to ethically disagreeable actsĢ “After all, the practical reason why, when the power is once in the hands of the people, a majority are permitted, and for a long period continue, to rule is not because they are most likely to be in the right, nor because this seems fairest to the minority, but because they are physically the strongest…I think that we should be men first, and subjects afterward. Thoreau: Transcendentalist living during time of abolition movement, Mexican War, and shortly after Indian Removal Thoreau wrote many essays, most famous include “Walden,” describing his life at Walden Pond, and “Civil Disobedience,” an essay discussing what to do when faced with immoral acts of government and the desire to live and honest life. 1 Henry David Thoreau and Civil Disobedience Kant laid the foundations of his theory of knowledge in his monumental Critique of Pure Reason (1781). Above all, Kant was the philosopher of human autonomy, the view that by the use of our own reason in its broadest sense human beings can discover and live up to the basic principles of knowledge and action without outside assistance, above all without divine support or intervention. He eradicated the last traces of the medieval worldview from modern philosophy, joined the key ideas of earlier rationalism and empiricism into a powerful model of the subjective origins of the fundamental principles of both science and morality, and laid the ground for much in the philosophy of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Immanuel Kant was the paradigmatic philosopher of the European Enlightenment.

The name Eve, for example, is associated with original sin as she is the woman from the Bible who forced humankind out of the beloved garden of Eden when she convinced Adam to bite from the “apple.” However, both Eve and Eden are now popular names!Īs with most things, history is told by those who won or were the perceived “good guys,” and some of these names from powerful and feared women might have been tainted by those who wrote their histories. In some cases, there are modern popular names that have a wicked past long forgotten. However, many of these names are incredibly lovely and have historical, literary, or religious connotations. When considering baby girl names, you may think it odd that some parents would choose an evil or villainous name. Choosing a name for your baby girl is one of the most significant decisions you will make as a parent. |
