Boys’ Day (Dzień Chłopaka)
On this day girls in Poland are encouraged to give presents to boys. This unofficial holiday seems to be popular among high school students; gifts such as chocolates, cards and trinkets are presented by girls to the young men they like. Though there is no Girls’ Day in the country, there is a Woman’s Day. Other countries such as Trinidad and Tobago, Brazil and Japan have similar celebrations on different days.
We have sunk to a depth in which re-statement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men.
— George Orwell
In order that all men may be taught to speak truth, it is necessary that all should learn to hear it.
–Samuel Johnson
The Theodosian Press is an e-publishing venture that will bring to the reading public new works of history, theology, and literature, as well as reintroducing forgotten classics. We aim to combine scholarly integrity with popular readability and to make our imprint synonymous with entertaining and educational digital books.
The press is named after two emperors of Late Antiquity: Theodosius I defeated the Arian heresy, ended the bloodthirsty gladiatorial games, and rescued enslaved children; Theodosius II invented the university and built the mighty land walls that protected Constantinople for a thousand years.
