F carolyn graglia5/30/2023 Finally, after exposing feminism’s totalitarian impulse and its contribution to the “tangle of pathologies” that have left marriage and family life in tatters, she argues for a renewed appreciation of the transforming experience of motherhood and the value of the domestic vocation. Turning to the feminist understanding of sexuality, now pervasive in our culture, she shows how it has distorted and impoverished sex by stripping it of its true significance. In a masterly analysis of seminal feminist texts, she reveals a conscious campaign of ostracism of the housewife as a childish “parasite”. Graglia traces the origins of modern feminism to the post-war exaltation of marketplace achievement, which bred dissatisfaction with women’s domestic roles.

The radetzky march by joseph roth5/30/2023 “One need fear no danger indeed, there is none to fear,” he thinks. He proudly, defiantly imagines showing the permit to policemen who might stop him on the street. He’s issued a barrel organ, and a permit to play it anywhere he’d like in the city so he can make a living.

He learns that the government will favor those returned soldiers who have shell shock - a condition suffered by only one of the 156 men at the hospital. We first see Andreas at a military hospital, preparing to re-enter an unnamed German-speaking society.
