Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In 1898 the United States went to war to free Cuba from a colonial empire and ended the year ruling the Philippines by force. A republic founded in revolt against empire now had to decide whether to become one. Against Empire: Patriotic Dissent at 250 gathers the writers, statesmen, and reformers who fought that decision - and who insisted they were not betraying the republic but defending it.The opposition came from the height of American life. Mark Twain, Andrew Carnegie, Carl Schurz, William Jennings Bryan, William James, Jane Addams, and W. E. B. Du Bois turned the founders' own words against the empire-builders, warning that the force required to rule subject peoples abroad would corrode the Constitution at home. Their essays, speeches, satires, and poems - including Twain's The War Prayer and King Leopold's Soliloquy - form the core of the anthology, set against Albert Beveridge's 'The March of the Flag,' the imperialist case stated in full. Alongside the polemics stand the literary answers of the period: the verse of William Vaughn Moody, William Dean Howells's story 'Editha,' and Finley Peter Dunne's Mr. Dooley dialogues.This edition adds a section seldom heard in an American collection: the Filipino voices of Emilio Aguinaldo, Apolinario Mabini, and Clemencia López, writing from the receiving end of empire and translated from the original Spanish for this volume.Edited by Lee Raymond for Time Warp Editions, the book follows the anti-imperialist movement from 1898 to 1905 and closes with an essay tracing American empire to the present day. It includes an original critical introduction, 'Patriotic Dissent is the Highest Form of Loyalty,' a biographical directory of every contributor, a historical timeline of the movement, and a guide to further reading.Published for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Against Empire recovers the patriotism the anniversary forgot.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Electricity is the Great Slave. Breath of the universe, fluid running through the Earth's veins. It wanders in space in dazzling zigzags, scratching the immensities of the ether. Now it has been seized, chained, and tamed.' The Electric Life (1893).Step into the retro-futuristic world of Albert Robida (1848-1926), the astonishingly prolific French visionary who created 60,000+ illustrations and authored or contributed to nearly 80 books. Part Jules Verne, part Voltaire, Robida's witty satire imagines a 1950s where flying machines dock atop cathedrals and families argue via video-telephones, while bodies waste away from 'electric life' exhaustion.Here is a new and original translation from the French, refined and expanded for maximum readability for an English-speaking audience, alongside over 100 of Robida's delightfully provocative illustrations, conspiring to create what is arguably the first ever science fiction literary graphic novel - originally penned in 1893, now modernized for 2025.With delightful humor masking serious warnings, he depicts women running stock exchanges and scientists deploying germ warfare for profit-all while pollution chokes cities and citizens retreat to recreated 19th-century villages for respite. A masterpiece that entertained Belle Époque readers while prophetically warning them of modernity's seductive perils.In this updated and expanded version you will be delighted by:100+ original illustrations, sharpened and brightened for best print viewingImproved translation and readability to enhance the story and character interactionsExtensive chapter notes to contextualize Robida's biting satire and historical referencesNew introduction, author biography and full bibliographyTime Warp Editions is committed to preserving and refining classic works of literature and making them accessible and enjoyable for a modern audience. …
