    About this series

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    This work explores a generational history from America under the English and Spanish empires, to the United States of contemporary times. A novel historical approach relies on generational markers every 15th  year, rather than yearly astronomical dates. This method makes history more accessible and its patterns more apparent. The phases of history, identified from cultures presented in an earlier volume, are: 1) "Invisible" Beginnings; 2) Establishment and Testing; 3) Novel Consolidation and Opening Up, 4) Crisis and Creativity; 5) Empire and Inclusion, and 6) Rigidification or Renewal. This history does not seek to hide or obscure the shadow side of America, nor does it fail to present the considerable beauty and light present, especially during the 30s generational phase. Come journey with us and experience historical events and people's lives generation by generation, and see how they resonate with an historical phasing. Such awareness, the author contends, will help us make the generational choice of our times.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. This work explores the use of a time chart based on generations as a way to understand history. A sole reliance on yearly dating tends to obscure the historical reality and deter us from further exploration. However, patterns are revealed if we number generations, and we become intrigued by the connections and hypotheses raised. The author uses 15-year intervals to date events and mark when people turn 30 and tend to enter history. The 15-year generational interval was first used by the medieval historian, Bede, and later advocated by Ortega E Gasset, a leading Spanish philosopher of the 20th century. In brief, the phases of history found are: 1) A partly invisible beginning phase; 0-15 generations; 2) An establishment phase at 15/20 generations; 3) A consolidating and opening up stage at 30 generations; 4) A crisis and creativity phase at 40 generations; 5) An empire and inclusionary phase at 50 generations; and 6) Renewal or rigidification phase at the 60 generational node. Importantly, special attention is given to the often neglected 30th generational period, in which an openess to beauty and light prevade. Interestingly, these phases also resonate with the human life cycle. The tour of cultures covered includes ancient Egypt, Israel-Judah, Rome, and the Medieval-Modern. Taking us into contemporary times, America/United States is addressed in a second volume to this work.You are invited to go on an intriguing journey in which generational patterning becomes a Rosetta key for understanding history.
