Описание: Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948) was born and raised in a Hindu family in Western India. The honorific title 'Mahatma', meaning 'great-souled' and 'venerable', was applied to him in 1914. Mahatma Gandhi became an Indian lawyer, and was an anti-colonialist and political ethicist. He led a nonviolent resistance movement, successfully campaigning for India's independence from British Rule. As a result, he inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. In 1921, he adopted the loin cloth, with a shawl to wear in the winter to identify with the poor of India. Known for his campaigns to ease poverty, expand women's rights, building bridges across races and religions and peacefully achieving Swaraj ('self-rule'), he earned worldwide respect and admiration. Revered for his wisdom, this extensive collection of over 400 quotes made by the great man during his lifetime inspires, endures and evokes a depth of insight that few great men can match.

Описание:
Dennis Dalton's classic account of Gandhi's political and intellectual development focuses on the leader's two signal triumphs: the civil disobedience movement (or salt satyagraha) of 1930 and the Calcutta fast of 1947. Dalton clearly demonstrates how Gandhi's lifelong career in national politics gave him the opportunity to develop and refine his ideals. He then concludes with a comparison of Gandhi's methods and the strategies of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, drawing a fascinating juxtaposition that enriches the biography of all three figures and asserts Gandhi's relevance to the study of race and political leadership in America. Dalton situates Gandhi within the "clash of civilizations" debate, identifying the implications of his work on continuing nonviolent protests. He also extensively reviews Gandhian studies and adds a detailed chronology of events in Gandhi's life.

Описание: The second volume of a unique collection of bizarre tales from a master of the genre Richard Marsh was the pseudonym of British born author Richard Bernard Heldman (1857-1916). His most famous work of supernatural fiction, The Beetle, was published in 1897, the same year as Bram Stoker's tale of the vampire Count Dracula, and it is believed that initially Marsh's book, which also features a bizarre and sinister figure capable of 'shape shifting, ' was even more popular with readers than Stoker's. Today Marsh's book is still widely regarded as a classic of its genre. Although a prolific author who wrote in a number of genres including adventure fiction under his real name, Marsh is principally remembered as a writer of supernatural thrillers and his output in this field was prodigious. Most aficionados of the genre have heard of The Beetle, but this special Leonaur collection of the author's excursions into the other worldly and strange extends to six satisfyingly substantial volumes containing many tales that will be unfamiliar to modern readers. Volume two contains three novels, The Devil's Diamond, The Mahatma's Pupil and The Goddess a Demon, and four short stories of the strange and unusual. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.
