Modernity has been target of permanent criticism since its inception by what has become a traditionalist or antimodern way of thinking. This book exhibits three variations of it, focusing on the ideas of Hannah Arendt, Leo Strauss and Philip Rieff. The approach is critical, stressing the prejudices existing inside their commentaries of our age, but at the same time it argues they originally highlight some of its deepest problems....

When you read the labels of commercial shower soaps, you will discover all kinds of chemicals and if you are lucky a small amount of coconut oil. Most of it is palm oil!!! You are probably used that soap dries your skin out and you need to use lotion afterwards. This is not the case when you make your own shower (and hand-washing) soap. A proper handmade traditional herbal soap will hydrate and nurture your skin. The internet is full of recipes for such soaps. Do your own research and develop your own recipe based on the basic one given above. The washing soap will take stains away very well and your clothes will be very clean. I used it in a top-loader cold water washing machine with good results (on very dirty children clothes!). To my surprise whites didn't grey and on the other hand colors stayed bright. I made the soap to save costs and was very positively surprised by its quality. It is much better than locally available washing detergents (Thailand) and costs less. You can play with the amount of coconut oil. When reduced to 50 g it will still be a good washing soap. Even the 100% palm oil sopa cleans well and can be used ...

The most classic of his adventures must have been with the bull. Every evening, a cowherd would herd his bulls and cows along the road in front of the house on the way to their grazing pasture. Every time Shadow saw the cattle, he would bark non-stop until they were out of sight. Early one Sunday, Daddy and Mommy took Shadow for a walk. They walked quite a distance until they reached a lonely stretch of road with woods on one side and a pasture on the other. Daddy noticed that the cattle were already there and since he was wearing red, told Mommy that they had to turn back – and then the fun really started! Shadow suddenly noticed his least-loved enemies, the cattle. He started barking non-stop as Daddy tried unsuccessfully to shut him up. There was a bull that was closest to them that suddenly looked up into the distance as if thinking, “I know that bark!” Then, he turned his head slowly towards Daddy, Mommy and Shadow and his eyes grew huge with recognition, as if he was saying, “You! I know you!” Daddy tried to muzzle Shadow with his hands, but Shadow wouldn’t stop barking. The bull, growing angrier by the second, started d...
