Meet Julia Ward Howe, the Remarkable Poet Who Wrote the ‘Battle Hymn of the Republic’ and Fought for Women’s Suffrage

#OTD in 1893 Guy de Maupassant died. He "was a 19th-century French author, celebrated as a master of the short story and associated with the naturalist literary school of thought, depicting human lives, destinies, and social forces in disillusioned and often pessimistic terms."

con l’autore

(Milieu edizioni)
Un romanzo sull’«assalto al cielo» tentato negli anni Settanta nel nostro paese. Un linguaggio essenziale, materico, dinamico, visivo, concentrato in quadri narrativi che di quell’assalto tratteggiano la genesi, lo sviluppo e la tragica sconfitta finale. Una narrazione «a quadri» del «lungo ’68 italiano». Una singola voce che nella fulminea descrizione dei diversi scenari attraversati riesce a divenire voce collettiva. Una sintesi dei sommovimenti sociali, politici, culturali ed esistenziali del decennio Settanta che nulla tralascia dei suoi contenuti fondamentali: l’antiautoritarismo delle prime lotte studentesche, il sentimento della «Resistenza tradita», la grande rivolta operaia nelle fabbriche, il femminismo, la radicalizzazione dei conflitti, la nascita e lo sviluppo della lotta armata, il movimento del ’77, la diffusione nei movimenti delle droghe, la repressione, il carcere, il riflusso e la drammatica presa d’atto della sconfitta del sogno di una trasformazione rivoluzionaria.

Today, the only way to load third party ebooks onto a newly purchased Kindle or Kindle App is to use the “Send-to-Kindle” service which accepts EPUB3 files and loads them into your Kindle Library. We know that MOBI files are being used less and less, but we want to continue to support our readers who still use their old Kindles! So we’d love to hear from you about whether you still use MOBI files. Here’s a 2-question survey form you can use to tell us your opinion:
2/2
MOBI (Mobipocket, labeled as “older Kindles” on our download pages) was introduced in 2007. A couple of years later, Amazon launched an advanced version of MOBI and called it KF8 or AZW3 (it’s the download file we label as “Kindle”).Google Docs
reshared this
Project Gutenberg offers 7 ebook formats (like HTML, EPUB, and MOBI) and plans to add PDF and KEPUB. MOBI was Amazon's early proprietary format for Kindles, which later evolved into KF8. In response, the publishing industry created EPUB, an open format that Amazon eventually accepted.

@dandylover1 Can I ask you one more favor? Since we are seeking ADA II accreditation, a question has arisen regarding the use of straight and curly quotes. I have selected two examples to provide practical examples in this regard. We would appreciate it if you could provide us with feedback so that we can clarify this question.
