Resistance also served as part of Thoreau's metaphor comparing the government to a machine: when the machine was producing injustice, it was the duty of conscientious citizens to be "a counter friction" (i.e., a resistance) "to stop the machine". Nonetheless, Thoreau was initially inspired by the Christian anarchist ideals espoused by Ballou and Garrison. The latter title distinguished Thoreau's program from that of " non-resistants" or Christian anarchists like Adin Ballou and William Lloyd Garrison, as Thoreau argued that their insistence on nonresistance as praxis against the state was grossly ineffectual. This formed the basis for his essay, which was first published under the title Resistance to Civil Government in an 1849 anthology by Elizabeth Peabody called Æsthetic Papers. In 1848, Thoreau gave lectures at the Concord Lyceum entitled "The Rights and Duties of the Individual in relation to Government". in Biblical and Theological Studies, an M.Div., specializing in Apologetics and Theology, and a Th.M.

This is Ireland before the boom and bust of the Celtic Tiger before the insidious, everyday power of the Catholic church began to be eroded by the exposure of multiple abuse scandals before its population voted overwhelmingly in favour of marriage equality and access to abortion. Claire Keegan’s tiny, cataclysmic novel takes us into the heart of small-town Ireland a few decades ago, creating a world that feels in certain respects dead and buried but whose legacy the country is still processing. It’s a heart-stopping book with twists, turns, and encounters with characters long since forgotten about, expanding the Riordanverse and driving the main plot of Heroes of Olympus forwards. In The House of Hades, these characters are split up into multiple parties, with one pair of characters making their way through Tartarus to close the Doors of Death while the rest of the group travels to meet them on the other side, encountering monsters and side quests of their own along the way. Once you get used to the dynamic, this novel is incredibly enjoyable, with characters old and new traveling to Italy and Greece to save the world once more. One of the most enjoyable things about the Heroes of Olympus series is the way in which a handful of Greek demigods and a handful of Roman demigods are thrown together to fulfill a quest, and their differing backgrounds are shown to be both a benefit and a hindrance.
