The works of Roman writers and historians gave historians large amounts of information of Rome’s history, rulers, and other famous citizens. Much less, however, was known about the lives of ordinary Romans as few left any records of their lives. This changed following the rediscovery of the city of Pompeii during the 1700s.. Mount . Vesuviusis. a located on the Gulf of Naples in Campania, Italy, about 9 km (5.6 mi) east of Naples. It is one of several volcanoes which form the Campanian volcanic arc. Vesuvius consists of a large cone partially encircled by the steep rim of a summit caldera caused by the collapse of an earlier and originally much higher structure.. Kitchens are used frequently in every home, but they are often the one room that individuals and family members hate having to clean. That said, if you are preparing food in your kitchen, then it’s important for many reasons that you try to keep it clean, even if you don’t give it a top to bottom clean every day. Here are a few quick and easy tips for cleaning your kitchen; some of these should be followed daily, while others will be weekly: It can be hard to keep your bathroom smelling fresh all year round, or even all day, for that matter! Even if you alone use your bathroom, or a family of ten, it can quickly begin smelling grotty, and since some of the smelliest activities in the home take place in it, it really is little surprise. There are the lingering odours of toilet activities, and then there are the other aroma’s that build up over time, and which are no less easy to eliminate. Many people who suffer from depression begin to find that keeping up with everyday chores and tasks such as cleaning, becomes increasingly difficult, and they lack the motivation and energy to really care about keeping their homes and living spaces clean and tidy. Sadly, not taking care of these things, serves only to exasperate the symptoms of depression, and it becomes a vicious cycle that can be harder and harder to get out of. When we teach our kids to clean up after themselves, we’re helping to instill some important values in them, such as how to contribute to the family unit, how to keep a clean home ready for when they move out (eventually!) and understanding the importance of having responsibilities.

Dust: The Archive and Cultural History considers our stubborn set of beliefs about an objective material world inherited from the nineteenth century with which modern history writing and its lack of such a belief, attempts to grapple. Drawing on her own published and unpublished writing, Carolyn Steedman has produced a sustained argument about the way in which history writing belongs to the currents of thought shaping the modern world.Steedman begins by asserting that in recent years much attention has been paid to the archive by those working in the humanities and social sciences she calls this practice archivization. By definition, the archive is the repository of that which will not go away, and the book goes on to suggest that, just like dust, the matter of history can never go away or be erased.This unique work will be welcomed by all historians who want to think about what it is they do. The New Orleans mayor who removed the Confederate statues confronts the racism that shapes us and argues for white America to reckon with its past. A passionate, personal, urgent book from the man who sparked a national debate.There is a difference between remembrance of history and reverence for it. When Mitch Landrieu addressed the people of New Orleans in May 2017 about his decision to take down four Confederate monuments, including the statue of Robert E. Lee, he struck a nerve nationally, and his speech has now been heard or seen by millions across the country. In his first book, Mayor Landrieu discusses his personal journey on race as well as the path he took to making the decision to remove the monuments, tackles the broader history of slavery, race and institutional inequities that still bedevil America, and traces his personal relationship to this history. His father, as state senator and mayor, was a huge force in the integration of New Orleans in the 1960s and 19070s. Landrieu grew up with a progressive education in one of the nation\'s most racially divided cities, but even he had to relearn Southern history as it really happened.Equal parts unblinking memoir, history, and prescription for finally confronting America\'s most painful legacy, In the Shadow of Statues will contribute strongly to the national conversation about race in the age of Donald Trump, at a time when racism is resurgent with seemingly tacit approval from the highest levels of government and when too many Americans have a misplaced nostalgia for a time and place that never existed.
