by George McCully (Author) A re-interpretation and strategic overview of philanthropy-its meaning and values, greatest accomplishments, current transformations, and future directions-based on close analysis of historical sources, and 25 years' practical experience in all aspects of philanthropy. Chapter I: " Promethean Fire: the Archetype" - from its first coinage in ancient Greece, in Prometheus Bound, philanthropia meant "the love of humanity", or of what it is to be human, an educational and cultural ideal; Chapter II: " Philanthropy's Finest Hour: the American Revolution" - the Revolution as philanthropy in action-how Classical philanthropy through voluntary associations produced a "purportedly philanthropic nation", created by and for philanthropy; Chapter III: " Philanthropy Yesterday and Today" - how 20th-century growth and professionalization made philanthropy paradigmatic, but neglected Classical values, and how we are now in a paradigm-shift, in which philanthropy is being thoroughly transformed; Chapter IV: " The Future of Philanthropy" - how the paradigm-shift analysis illuminates issues facing Old Paradigm institutions, and current trends suggesting a probable future; Chapter V: " Philanthropy Reborn"- how a possible New Paradigm, uniting Classical ideals with Internet-based operations, might benefit donors, grantmakers, philanthropic advisors, trustees, executive directors, scholars, media journalists, teachers and students, as well as civic, religious and political leaders. Appendix I: "Case Study: the Catalogue for Philanthropy in Massachusetts." Exemplifies the current paradigm-shift. Appendix II: "A Taxonomic Tree of Philanthropy" A donor-friendly presentation of how the fields of philanthropy constitute a coherent whole. Appendix III: "Bibliographical Notes" Suggested further readings. Number of Pages: 148 Dimensions: 0.5 x 9 x 6 IN

William Shakespeare quote about women from Love's Labour's Lost: “From women's eyes this doctrine I derive. They sparkle still the right Promethean fire; They are the books, the arts, the academes, That show, contain, and nourish, all the world, Else none at all in aught proves excellent.”

Different gangs get different tattoos, but the reasoning behind them is usually the same.

Burns wrote prose as well as poetry, but however much we may admire its technical excellence, it does not ring true, and the same may be said of his poems in English. It is far otherwise with the poems and songs in the dialect of his own country, for be the subject ever so trivial, it is touched with promethean fire and becomes immortal. The poetry which we find most satisfying is that which contains the fullest reaction to life, and Burns found inspiration in his own environment. The poet’s response to beauty is readier and more intense than that of less gifted humanity, and in the heritage which he has left us we are able to share vicariously in his heightened awareness and become more fully alive.

by Bruce Lerro (Author) Hard work is important. Innovation drives progress. Truth is derived from evidence. These concepts form the basis of Western thought, but where did they come from? In Forging Promethean Psychology, Bruce Lerro analyzes the origins of Western civilization's most basic values-including individualism, capitalism, and reason-by tracing them back to the Greek myth of Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods and gave it to humanity. Lerro argues that Western civilization developed the way it did by embracing Prometheus's legacy; in other words, we steal fire every day in the form of nonstop technological development and our obsession with progress. Academics, armchair psychologists, and history buffs will find Lerro's thesis compelling; his approach to Western psychology is thorough, thought provoking, and accessible to laypersons. His book offers a clear picture of how European institutions, communities, and philosophies formed the world we know today, with all its vices and virtues. Change is more fundamental than stability. In a time of great technological and social change, it's useful to understand the past to see how we might proceed. This interdisciplinary approach to psychological history offers a unique look at where we came from, where we are, and where we're going. Author Biography In his twenty-seven years as a university professor, Bruce Lerro has developed more than twenty-five classes on Western psychology, propaganda and rhetoric, social evolution, and other subjects. His previous books include Earth-Spirits to Sky-Gods, Power in Eden, and Social Change: Globalization from the Stone Age to the Present (coauthored with Christopher Chase-Dunn). Lerro lives with his partner, Barbara, in Oakland, California. Number of Pages: 538 Dimensions: 1.09 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN
