Read’s book describes the basic elements of composition and rhetoric: narrative form, eloquence, rhythm, and other important elements of what he asserts is valuable, worthwhile prose. The book is clearly dated, but it will be of especial interest to those studying works published before the Modernist movement in literature. – Summary by KevinS

E-book: Valerio Di Stefano – Complete Concordances of the King James Bible – Volume I (A-Azzur) (English Edition) – Amazon – Kindle
I made, in 2014, the General Concordances (or Biblical Keys) of the King James Bible. Now is the time to arrange for their publication. I cannot say, at the time of publishing these introductory notes, whether the work will be published in its complete form and what solutions will be adopted. But this first volume (A-Azzur) constitutes a first orientation towards the realization of the project. Following words/forms are not indexed, due to editorial exigences. However, numer of occurrences are indicated: a, about, above, after, again, against, all, also, am, among, an, anothe, another’, any, anything, as, at. I leave this work to my scrupulous readers. These concordances were created using the DBT 2.0 software, created by Eugenio Picchi and Pasquale Stoppelli for the Institute of Computational Linguistics of the CNR in Pisa. And I have nothing to add, at the moment. Valerio Di Stefano March, 2025
E-book: The Word “Jesus” in the King James Bible – Complete Concordances and Biblical Key (English Edition) – Amazon – Kindle
I made, in 2014, the General Concordances (or Biblical Keys) of the King James Bible. Now is the time to arrange for their publication. I cannot say, at the time of publishing these introductory notes, whether the work will be published in its complete form and what solutions will be adopted. But these concordances of the word “God” constitute a first orientation towards the realization of the project. The word “Jesus” occurs 983 times in the original text of the King James Translation, but the possible interpretations of this numerical data are numerous and extremely complex. I leave this short work to my scrupulous readers. These concordances were created using the DBT 2.0 software, created by Eugenio Picchi and Pasquale Stoppelli for the Institute of Computational Linguistics of the CNR in Pisa. And I have nothing to add, at the moment. Valerio Di Stefano March, 2025
Some Psalms: Three Classic English Translations by King James Version (KJV), Douay-Rheims Version (DRV) et al.
The Psalms, traditionally ascribed to David the King, are regarded in the Christian tradition as the voice of Christ speaking through His ancestor David. They are 150 laments, hymns, and prayers whose origins span 8 centuries before Christ and continue to be prayed by Jews and Christians in virtually all languages, including the original Hebrew, and the once dominant Latin of St. Jerome. This LibriVox recording presents 3 classic English translations: that of Myles Coverdale (16th Century) included in the Anglican Book of Common Prayer; the King James Version (early 17th Century); and the contemporaneous 17th Century Roman Catholic translation by the exiled English scholars at Douai (later Rhiems), France, as revised by Bp. Richard Challoner in 1752. – Summary by Fr. Richard Zeile
Note: This project contains Psalms 1-73 and Psalm 90.

Arithmetic (261 videos)So you’re ready to have some arithmetic fun? You’ve come to the right spot! It’s the first “official” math topic and chalked full of fun exercises and great videos which help you start your journey towards math mastery. We’ll cover the big ones: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, of course. But we don’t stop there, We’ll get into negative numbers, absolute value, decimals, and fractions, too. Learning math should be fun, and we plan on having some with you. Ready to get started?
-
Pre-algebra (383 videos)No way, this isn’t your run of the mill arithmetic. This is Pre-algebra. You’re about to play with the professionals. Think of pre-algebra as a runway. You’re the airplane and algebra is your sunny vacation destination. Without the runway you’re not going anywhere. Seriously, the foundation for all higher mathematics is laid with many of the concepts that we will introduce to you here: negative numbers, absolute value, factors, multiples, decimals, and fractions to name a few. So buckle up and move your seat into the upright position. We’re about to take off!
-
Algebra basics (198 videos)Algebra is a beautiful and important area of study with unlimited applications. One can spend a lifetime studying and exploring it (and some people do). If you’re not one of them, and are looking to learn, review or practice the most core ideas in Algebra, you’ve found your home. This subject is ideal for anyone looking to prepare for a high school or college placement exam. It covers all of the foundational ideas in algebra and related topics in pre-algebra and geometry. If you’re looking for more exhaustive coverage, then the Algebra I & II s{subjects may be better for you.
-
Algebra I (589 videos)Algebra is the language through which we describe patterns. Think of it as a shorthand, of sorts. As opposed to having to do something over and over again, algebra gives you a simple way to express that repetitive process. It’s also seen as a “gatekeeper” subject. Once you achieve an understanding of algebra, the higher-level math s{subjects become accessible to you. Without it, it’s impossible to move forward. It’s used by people with lots of different jobs, like carpentry, engineering, and fashion design. In these tutorials, we’ll cover a lot of ground. Some of the topics include linear equations, linear inequalities, linear functions, systems of equations, factoring expressions, quadratic expressions, exponents, functions, and ratios.
-
Geometry (244 videos)We are surrounded by space. And that space contains lots of things. And these things have shapes. In geometry we are concerned with the nature of these shapes, how we define them, and what they teach us about the world at large–from math to architecture to biology to astronomy (and everything in between). Learning geometry is about more than just taking your medicine (“It’s good for you!”), it’s at the core of everything that exists–including you. Having said all that, some of the specific topics we’ll cover include angles, intersecting lines, right triangles, perimeter, area, volume, circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, analytic geometry, and geometric constructions. Wow. That’s a lot. To summarize: it’s difficult to imagine any area of math that is more widely used than geometry.
-
Algebra II (308 videos)Your studies in algebra 1 have built a solid foundation from which you can explore linear equations, inequalities, and functions. In algebra 2 we build upon that foundation and not only extend our knowledge of algebra 1, but slowly become capable of tackling the BIG questions of the universe. We’ll again touch on systems of equations, inequalities, and functions…but we’ll also address exponential and logarithmic functions, logarithms, imaginary and complex numbers, conic sections, and matrices. Don’t let these big words intimidate you. We’re on this journey with you!
-
Trigonometry (89 videos)Big, fancy word, right? Don’t be fooled. Looking at the prefix, tri-, you could probably assume that trigonometry (“trig” as it’s sometimes called) has something to do with triangles. You would be right! Trig is the study of the properties of triangles. Why is it important? It’s used in measuring precise distances, particularly in industries like satellite systems and sciences like astronomy. It’s not only space, however. Trig is present in architecture and music, too. Now you may wonder…how is knowing the measurement and properties of triangles relevant to music?? THAT is a great question. Maybe you’ll learn the answer from us in these tutorials!
-
Probability and statistics (172 videos)We dare you to go through a day in which you never consider or use probability. Did you check the weather forecast? Busted! Did you decide to go through the drive through lane vs walk in? Busted again! We are constantly creating hypotheses, making predictions, testing, and analyzing. Our lives are full of probabilities! Statistics is related to probability because much of the data we use when determining probable outcomes comes from our understanding of statistics. In these tutorials, we will cover a range of topics, some which include: independent events, dependent probability, combinatorics, hypothesis testing, descriptive statistics, random variables, probability distributions, regression, and inferential statistics. So buckle up and hop on for a wild ride. We bet you’re going to be challenged AND love it!
-
Precalculus (165 videos)You may think that precalculus is simply the course you take before calculus. You would be right, of course, but that definition doesn’t mean anything unless you have some knowledge of what calculus is. Let’s keep it simple, shall we? Calculus is a conceptual framework which provides systematic techniques for solving problems. These problems are appropriately applicable to analytic geometry and algebra. Therefore….precalculus gives you the background for the mathematical concepts, problems, issues and techniques that appear in calculus, including trigonometry, functions, complex numbers, vectors, matrices, and others. There you have it ladies and gentlemen….and introduction to precalculus!
-
Differential calculus (155 videos)How would you like to follow in the footsteps of Euclid and Archimedes? Would you like to be able to determine precisely how fast Usain Bolt is accelerating exactly 2 seconds after the starting gun? Differential calculus deals with the study of the rates at which quantities change. It is one of the two principle areas of calculus. The fathers of modern calculus, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz, independently formulated the fundamental theorem of calculus relating differentiation and integration. Differential calculus and integral calculus are connected by the fundamental theorem of calculus, which states that differentiation is the reverse process to integration.
Science
-
Biology (79 videos)Covers topics seen in a first year college or high school biology course.
-
Physics (202 videos)Projectile motion, mechanics and electricity and magnetism. Solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry necessary.
-
Chemistry (84 videos)Videos on chemistry (roughly covering a first-year high school or college course).
-
Cosmology and astronomy (87 videos)Videos attempting to grasp a little bit about our Universe (many of the topics associated with “Big History”)
-
Health and medicine (531 videos)The medical world can be a confusing place. Patients and their families might feel overwhelmed by the large vocabularies and complicated explanations they get from their health care providers. Students entering health care also struggle to grasp the complexity of health sciences, and are forced to memorize huge amounts of information. We hope to make understanding the medical world a bit easier. Look around! These videos do not provide medical advice and are for informational purposes only. The videos are not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Always seek the advice of a qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read or seen in any Khan Academy video.

Johann Sebastian Bach – Works for Harpsochord – Janine Johnson
A visual artist who adorns world class harpsichords with intricate artwork, the multitalented Janine Johnson is also a gifted musician and is known for her elegant yet extremely agile style of playing. This album of Johann Sebastian Bach by Johnson was recorded on an instrument commissioned specifically for the performance of his work; her selections were chosen to show off the unusual “organ-like colors” of this remarkable harpsichord.

William Shakespeare – Sonnet 1: From Fairest Creatures We Desire Increase
From fairest creatures we desire increase,
That thereby beauty’s rose might never die,
But as the riper should by time decrease,
His tender heir mught bear his memeory:
But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes,
Feed’st thy light’st flame with self-substantial fuel,
Making a famine where abundance lies,
Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
Thou that art now the world’s fresh ornament
And only herald to the gaudy spring,
Within thine own bud buriest thy content
And, tender churl, makest waste in niggarding.
Pity the world, or else this glutton be,
To eat the world’s due, by the grave and thee.
