عالم الأمس - ستيفان زفايغ
الكتاب يتوفر مطبوعا والكترونيا (يرجى متابعة الرابط للتفاصيل)
"عالم الأمس، مذكرات أوروبي" هو سيرة الكاتب النمساوي الشهير، ستيفان زفايغ، بمثل ما هو سيرة أوروبا التي عرفها ما بين 1895 و1941، العام الأخير الذي كتب فيه زفايغ ذكرياته، وأرسلها إلى ناشره قبل أن يُقدم على الانتحار في 23 فبراير/ شباط 1942. الكتاب الذي نُشر في السنة نفسها هو بمثابة وصيةٍ أخيرةٍ يروي الكاتب فيها قصة تدهور قارة بأكملها (انتحار أوروبا)، انهيار السلم العالميّ، وانكسار جيل بفعل الزلازل القوية التي تناوبت عليه، متمثّلة بالحربين العالميتين، الأولى والثانية، وبمجيء هتلر وصعوده. يقول: "لقد كنتُ شاهدا على أفظع هزيمة للعقل".
بداية، يروي زفايغ حنينه إلى "العصر الذهبي"، كما عاشه في أثناء العقود الأخيرة لحكم سلالة هابسبورغ، في فيينا، عاصمة الثقافة والموسيقى والجمال آنذاك، مع زمرةٍ من الأصدقاء الذين لمعت أسماؤهم لاحقا في مختلف المجالات، فالشاب الذي ولد في "مجتمع استقرار"، أي في عائلة يهودية بورجوازية، وفي أجواء تتميّز بالرخاء وبنزعة سياسية محافظة، سيكون شاهدا على مشاركة بلاده في الحرب العالمية الأولى، وما تلاها من إنهاك، وهزيمة ودمار وفوضى اقتصادية ومالية، وتنامي العداء للسامية، وانتشار الفاشية والتوسّع الهتلري، واستسلام الديمقراطيات الغربية،.. إلخ.

December Book Club/White Elephant Book Exchange
Welcome, readers! ❄️
Our December read is **_A Quiet Life by Ethan Joella._**
A Quiet Life by Ethan Joella is a tender, character-driven novel that follows three people in a small Pennsylvania town as they each cope with loss and seek connection. Chuck, a widower, struggles to find meaning after his wife’s death; Ella, a young woman, faces the heartbreak of her missing daughter; and Kirsten, a veterinary technician, grieves her father while contemplating her future. Their stories intertwine gently, revealing how grief and hope coexist—and how even small acts of kindness can help people rediscover purpose and peace in the aftermath of tragedy.
Looking forward to discussing with everyone!
At this meeting, our third annual White Elephant book exchange will take place!
If you'd like to participate, bring a gift-wrapped book that you already own. On the gift wrap, write the genre of the book.
We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.**
Happy reading! 📖
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!
This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
