Porfirio Díaz. Su vida y su tiempo narra la historia de uno de los personajes más fascinantes en la historia de México. Héroe para unos, villano para otros, su vida de soldado ilustra en plenitud una novela de aventuras del siglo XIX. Es el tema que aborda La guerra. Díaz nació en un mundo donde la gente despertaba a las cuatro de la madrugada para rezar el Rosario; formó parte de la generación que derribó a sablazos aquel mundo durante la Reforma y destacó como nadie en la lucha contra la Intervención y el Imperio.

What if God has been speaking through voices the religious world was too quick to ignore? In a world filled with noise, many people have lost the ability to recognize the voice of God when it comes through unexpected places. Let My People Flow makes a bold but careful claim: God has always made sure His people could hear His voice—even when religious leaders failed. Drawing from Isaiah 28, Scripture, history, Black music, and hip hop culture, Cellus Hamilton explores how God often speaks through what the religious establishment considers strange, foreign, or unworthy.

Al triunfar la República contra la Intervención y el Imperio, los liberales conquistaron el poder en México, pero fueron consumidos por la discordia, divididos con respecto de la reelección del presidente Juárez. Unos estaban a favor; otros estaban en contra. Los que estaban en contra postularon la candidatura de Porfirio Díaz, el general más popular del Ejército de la República, hasta entonces amigo y aliado de don Benito.

In this powerful and passionate memoir - his final work - Cone describes the obstacles he overcame to find his voice, to respond to the signs of the times, and to offer a voice for those - like the parents who raised him in Bearden, Arkansas, in the era of lynching and Jim Crow - who had no voice. Recounting lessons learned both from critics and students, and the ongoing challenge of his models King, Malcolm X, and James Baldwin, he describes his efforts to use theology as a tool in the struggle against oppression and for a better world. 

Al volver a la Presidencia en 1884, Porfirio Díaz ya era parte de la historia de México. Había luchado contra la dictadura de Santa Anna; combatió con los liberales en la guerra de Reforma; había vencido a los franceses en Puebla; triunfó contra Maximiliano al frente del Ejército de la República. La revolución de Tuxtepec lo llevó a la Presidencia. Al volver al poder, su prioridad ya no era la democracia y la justicia, como antes, sino la paz y el progreso de la República.

Within that story is the incredible tale of the human conflict between Robert Oppenheimer, Ernest Lawrence, and Edward Teller—the scientists most responsible for the advent of weapons of mass destruction. How did science—and its practitioners—enlisted in the service of the state during the Second World War, become a slave to its patron during the Cold War?

Après l’immense succès de L’HISTOIRE NOUS LE DIRA, Laurent Turcot récidive et propose de nouveau son regard unique et passionnant sur l’histoire du Québec. De la Nouvelle-France à aujourd’hui, en passant par la Conquête, le patrimoine bâti, les lieux signifiants et quelques-unes des affaires judiciaires qui ont secoué la province, l’historien explore certains marqueurs de l’identité collective qui permettent de mieux comprendre notre héritage social, culturel et politique.

Qu’est-ce qui fait que le Québec est tel qu’on le connaît ? Nous pourrions dire que c’est grâce à sa culture, entre autres choses. Mais de quelle culture parle-t-on, exactement ? Il y a notre langue avec ses sacres, ses accents, ses expressions. Il y a aussi notre gastronomie avec sa poutine, son sirop d’érable et son fameux pâté chinois, qui, on s’en doute, ne vient pas de Chine. Ensuite, il y a le sport. Par exemple, le hockey, aves ses grandes rivalités et les émotions fortes qu’il suscite chez les Québécois. Nous n’avons qu’à penser à la fameuse Bataille du Vendredi saint en 1984!

The United States was founded in the late 18th century, as the first republic based on modern democratic rules. The texts of The Constitution and The Bill of Rights dominated the ruling of the country with separation of powers to legislature, executive, and judiciary. What the Founding Fathers learned from the Greeks and Romans shaped this country. America created the model for modern democracy, which was later copied by countries around the world.
