Elemental, Not Obsessive Is insubordination impassioned? Perhaps it is the greatest feel of all What thou doth not sublet Feasts holding thy goblet She leaves thou unscathed Lift up not kick down Only if thee is dismissed Opinion loses stature You've become a minion Learn, I think anything but Supplanted by controlled desire Or at least mutual force Intertwined when permission is initiated Imperfection is never to be begat When one is not berating Acts of Novelty Are Unburdened Truths showcases general poetic structure and also delves into the realm of unstructured poems. With myriad subjects, some tied together by zany topics that could fit on an episode of Seinfeld, author Richard Rampello still touches on the more serious side of life. But most importantly, he wants people to view the world through the eyes of a young man. From religion to music, Acts of Novelty Are Unburdened Truths never fails to grab your attention.

Whether you’re a recently minted graduate seeking advantage in the long game of life or you’re further along in your journey and questioning whether you’re best applying yourself to desired outcomes, my book likely contains your answer. In it I detail a simple self-management discipline structured around six common truths. Adhere to a personalized adaptation of them, and you’ll ultimately enjoy their rich promise of happiness, peace, and a life of consequence far more easily and sooner than me! Indeed, mine is an uplifting story of personal triumph, about how, after a frustrating period of confidence-robbing self-doubt, I regained my footing with this simple self-management hack which—among other things—memorialized precisely what success looked like for me. And now, after benefiting for the better part of my adult life from the self-management process I cobbled together, I’m ready to share its recipe. I’ll open up in greater depth about what motivated my search for and eventual identification of our six simple truths, give my take on what I view as a more-complete form of success, and identify and define each of the truths. Each truth is presented along with a small collection of my formative defining (and reinforcing) experiences, recounted in forty-one short, historically accurate stories. It’s through these stories that I show how my six simple truths crystalized for me so that you might also be moved (and equipped) to mine the lessons of your own formative experiences. From those lessons, and with my coaching, you too will be able to easily craft and realign with your very own custom-tailored truths. I’ll show you how. Imagine! A fulfilling and (mostly) regret-free life in which you confidently pursue all that is unequivocally identified and reaffirmed daily as priority for you—those people, activities, and things you just can’t imagine being without. After all, if “we are,” as Buddha suggests, “what we think,” it’s critical that we be thoughtful and strategic about that with which we fill our minds. As an everyman with a simple secret to share, I wrote my book such that mapping one’s long game (and gaining reassuring clarity for one’s daily choices) would be within easy reach for all. Remaining true then to the resultant affirmations of one’s six simple truths—with intention and application—assures we can all enjoy their rich promise of happiness, peace, and a life of consequence.

Hannah Arendt's (1906-1975) writings, both in public magazines and in her important books, are still widely studied today. She made original contributions in political thinking that still astound readers and critics alike. The subject of several films and numerous books, colloquia, and newspaper articles, Arendt remains a touchstone in innumerable debates about the use of violence in politics, the responsibility one has under dictatorships and totalitarianism, and how to combat the repetition of the horrors of the past. The Bloomsbury Companion to Arendt offers the definitive guide to her writings and ideas, her influences and commentators, as well as the reasons for her lasting significance, with 66 original essays taking up in accessible terms the myriad ways in which one can take up her work and her continuing importance. These essays, written by an international set of her best readers and commentators, provides a comprehensive coverage of her life and the contexts in which her works were written. Special sections take up chapters on each of her key writings, the reception of her work, and key ways she interpreted those who influenced her. If one has come to Arendt from one of her essays on freedom, or from yet another bombastic account of her writings on Adolph Eichmann, or as as student or professor working in the field of Arendt studies, this book provides the ideal tool for thinking with and rediscovering one of the most important intellectuals of the past century. But just as importantly, contributors advance the study of Arendt into neglected areas, such as on science and ecology, to demonstrate her importance not just to debates in which she was well known, but those touched off only after her death. Arendt's approaches as well as her concrete claims about the political have much to offer given the current ecological and refugee crises, among others. In sum, then, the Companion provides a tool for thinking with Arendt, but also for showing just where those thinking with her can take her work today.

Our nation's founding document, the Declaration of Independence, confidently declares, "These truths we hold to be self-evident" And yet, America today seems mired in a truth crisis. Postmodern relativism has cast doubt on the Enlightenment notion of shared, self-evident truths held by all; technologies have made the swift proliferation of untruths commonplace; political sensibilities have become so partisan as to tolerate public personalities who brazenly lie. Many Americans, Jews among them, are understandably concerned for the future of truth as we once knew it. With this book, These Truths We Hold: Judaism in an Age of Truthiness, the editors and HUC-JIR have demonstrated a commitment to full engagement in the contemporary moment as well as to our Jewish heritage as a repository of complex and deep truths. We have assembled an impressive list of contributors who address the subject of truth in Jewish tradition and in contemporary Jewish life from several important perspectives: biblical, talmudic, liturgical, scientific, philosophical, satirical, pluralistic, and poetic. The articles are meant to shore up faith and to serve as a bank of resources to orient readers to Judaism's rich, multi-faceted and morally edifying teachings about truth.
