The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve. A story about the fears, desires, and responsibilities of humanity. The tale of Adam and Eve occupies a modest fifty lines in the Scriptures, yet it harbors astonishing paradoxes: a man and... a woman born as adults and unashamed of their nakedness, a talking serpent-tempter, a tree whose fruits grant the knowledge of good and evil. Doctor of Philosophy and Professor of Humanities Stephen Greenblatt narrates a story full of unimaginable scenes and events that have troubled philosophers and thinkers for centuries — it has been analyzed, discussed, and interpreted — both literally and allegorically. The Dark Side of the Sexual Revolution. Rethinking the Era of Erotic Freedom. The detrimental consequences that the sexual revolution brought to women in the 20th century and in the digital age of the 21st century have grown to colossal proportions. In this provocative study, Louise Perry reveals the dark aspects of the sexual revolution, which, in her opinion, has brought liberation more to men than to women. She is not swayed by the trendy buzzwords of liberal feminism — “freedom” and “equality.” Perry defends a new perspective, for it is time to focus on the true interests, desires, and happiness of women. Very Important People. Status and Beauty in the World of Elite Parties. Birthday parties costing millions of dollars, yachts on the French Riviera, and bottles of champagne worth $40,000. In today’s new gilded age, ostentatious consumption has reached new extremes. To make sense of this phenomenon, sociologist and former model Ashley Mears delves deep into the universe of hyper-consumption, closed off to most, to show how beautiful, ambitious, and young women enter this world of luxury only to become yet another accessory among super-rich men. "Very Important People" is a story about extreme gender inequality in the world of seduction.
