Spirit of Capitalism
> "It was the power of religious influence, not alone, but more than anything else, which created the differences of which we are conscious to-day” Max Weber saw reformation as a new form of religion control, not elimination of Church’s ones. His aim focused on finding intimate relationship between asceticism and capitalism. He

Leo Tolstoy's novella, "The Death of Ivan Ilyich," offers an insightful exploration into the relationship between death and the purpose of existence. The story centers on Ivan Ilyich, a lawyer in his mid-forties who lives a self-centered life, preoccupied with mundane matters. Only when he falls ill does he begin to confront his own mortality, prompting him to question the choices he has made and the significance of his life. The narrative starts after Ivan's death, where his acquaintances and family members gather, demonstrating a lack of understanding about death as they perceive it as an external event. The novel then delves into Ivan's past, revealing his pursuit of success and societal status, while stifling his emotions and self-expression. As his illness worsens, a peasant named Gerasim becomes Ivan's companion, offering him compassion and honesty. Through this friendship, Ivan reevaluates his life, realizing that his pursuit of conventional success didn't lead to genuine happiness. He grapples with the existential impact of death and finds moments of contentment before passing away. Tolstoy's narrative emphasizes the agony of reflecting on a life devoid of meaning and underscores how death's finality precludes any chance of rectification. The story urges readers to ponder whether a meaningful life can truly endure the erasure of death.

Very little can prepare you for the wild ride that is Mikhail Bulgakov's "The Master and Margarita," especially if you've read other literature or folklore that have the devil as a character. What will be helpful, I suspect, is knowing a bit about the time and setting of the novel. Bulgakov wrote this book between 1930 and 1940

A Critise About Just Good Friends( this writing can be include spoilers)
I downloaded this book thanks to a friend, this is the first book I have ever read from Penny Hancock. The subject of the book was surprising. I didn't expect this ending but I still loved it. Honesty is all matter. I liked Max and Ruth characters, they were getting along and lovely. But to me, I don't know why, Stephany seemed to far from me. I didn't have problems while I was reading the book, just there were so many miswritings. That made me a little bit angry. I really want to read another books of Penny Hancock. Thanks for this!

Ask The Dust I found Ask the Dust through 1K, which is considered it one of the best books. I read it in one day, LOVED it . A book written in the 1930s but startlingly modern in its sensibilities. It was clearly ahead of its time. It has a powerful ending; a great; haunting ending that leaves a sickness and a longing and a reminder about
