World War II was one of the defining moments in modern history, a global conflagration that transformed the world through battles, shifting alliances, and horrors unlike anything in recorded history. The story is often told as a series of great campaigns by famous generals, dramatic turning points, and cataclysmic combat. But what about the millions of ordinary people – the citizens and soldiers whose names none of us know but whose impact rippled through every aspect of the war?

Between 1861 and 1865, the clash of the greatest armies the Western hemisphere had ever seen turned small towns, little-known streams, and obscure meadows in the American countryside into names we will always remember. In those great battles, those streams ran red with blood – and the United States was truly born.

Spaceflight is notoriously dangerous. Beyond launch mishaps and equipment failures, astronauts face serious health problems from long-term weightlessness and high-energy radiation. Not to mention, the space environment is a near-perfect vacuum that can quickly kill anyone who is unprotected.

Free Download How Music and Mathematics Relate [TTC Audio]
English | March 06, 2019 | ASIN: B07PD9FVV7 | M4B@128 kbps | 9h 23m | 523 MB
Lecturer: David Kung
Great minds have long sought to understand the relationship between music and mathematics. Both involve patterns, structures, and relationships. Both generate ideas of great beauty and elegance. Music is a fertile testing ground for mathematical principles, while mathematics explains the sounds instruments make and how composers put those sounds together.
Understanding the connections between music and mathematics helps you appreciate both, even if you have no special ability in either field – from knowing the mathematics behind tuning an instrument to understanding the features that define your favorite pieces. By exploring the mathematics of music, you also learn why non-Western music sounds so different, gain insight into the technology of modern sound reproduction, and start to hear the world around you in exciting new ways.

Lecturer: Professor Robert Greenberg
No matter what kind of music we listen to – symphony or string quartet, saxophone solo or vocal ballad, hip hop or Gregorian chant – we feel its impact. But how is such an impact achieved? What are the fundamental processes of musical composition?
Look beneath the surface of music in these 16 fascinating lectures. See how certain musical effects are achieved, and learn to follow the often-intimidating language of key signatures, pitch, mode, melody, meter, and other parts of musical structure used by composers. Professor Greenberg offers a spirited introduction to this magnificent language – nimbly avoiding what for many of us has long been the principal roadblock, the need to read music. While reading musical notation is a necessity for anyone wanting to master music’s language, this course introduces you to music’s language in a way that is similar to the way you learned your own native language – through your ears rather than with pen and paper.

Lecturer: Philip Daileader
Centuries have passed since the last crusader knight laid down his sword, but the Crusades continue to hold sway over our world. Because the Crusades have been so consequential to history, it’s essential to understand the context, motivations, and preconditions of these dramatic military campaigns. In doing so, you’ll not only get a fresher understanding of the Crusades, you’ll discover surprising truths about why (and how) they were fought.
More than just an enriching recount of events, this series of 24 lectures is an intellectually rewarding exploration of how the Crusades shaped the medieval world and laid the seeds for our own. Plunging you into the series of Crusades to the Holy Land and elsewhere – from the calling of the First Crusade in 1095 to the collapse of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, in 1291 – Professor Daileader’s lectures are filled with eye-opening insights and gripping stories that will help you reach your own conclusions about just how important these centuries of warfare were to the story of human civilization.

The Late Middle Ages – the two centuries from c. 1300 to c. 1500 – might seem like a distant era, but students of history are still trying to reach a consensus about how it should be interpreted. Was it an era of calamity or rebirth? Was it still clearly medieval or the period in which humanity took its first decisive steps into modernity?
