Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In thirty three years Ive seen a lot of troubled people in the world today. Ive written excerpts on all different topics, ranging from spirits to everyday situations. Most of what Ive written to date is fiction, but all ideas and topics that I write about are derived through dreams that I have had. A Maidens Hell is no different; the Maiden came to me in the night. A girl young and so troubled that all she could say was Please help me over and over. She told a story of abuse and loss of innocence and needed freedom from all that she was enduring, as another girl was holding her in envious nature totally blind to the big picture of what the maidens life portrayed. And the cost it weaves.

Book excerpt: A collection of work from preeminent pop surrealism artist Caia Koopman Among lowbrow and tattoo connoisseurs Santa Cruz-based Caia is recognized as one of the most talented artists working in California. Now with her recent first solo shows in L.A. and San Francisco, she is about to get much more recognition. It's not hard to see why. Her images are sexy but empowered, reference the best iconography from the world of tattoo (Day of the Dead and old school roses), and can be ironically very candypop-pink or have an alluring old-fashioned Art Nouveau quality. What they are is instantly very hip and very now. Raining Pink is a stunning collection of Caia's best work. With this, and recent features in Juxtapoz among others, her reputation is set to grow and grow.

Will we both live to see the day we cherish each other, or will we both suffer in this beautiful hell together? Nikolas Lorenzo “An eye for an eye.

She’s painted as an innocent maiden in his brother’s eyes, but he knows better. He asks her to make a choice. Life or death. She chooses death. But death is too easy of a way out. She needs to experience the hell she put his brother through. And so he constructs the perfect hell for her, one where he has absolute control. But whenever he looks into her amber eyes, he can’t help seeing that innocent soul in her. Is this regret he’s feeling, or will he languish his moments with her in this beautiful hell he created?

Download or read book Maidens Magic and Martyrs in Early Christianity written by Jan N. Bremmer and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, Jan N. Bremmer aims to bring together the worlds of early Christianity and those of ancient history and classical literature - worlds that still all too rarely interlock. Contextualising the life and literature of the early Christians in their Greco-Roman environment, he focusses on four areas. A first section looks at more general aspects of early Christianity: the name of the Christians, their religious and social capital, prophecy and the place of widows and upper-class women in the Christian movement. Second, the chronology and place of composition of the early apocryphal Acts of the Apostles and Pseudo-Clementines are newly determined by paying close attention to their doctrinal contents, but also, innovatively, to their onomastics and social vocabulary. The author also analyses the frequent use of magic in the Acts and explains the prominence of women by comparing the Acts to the Greek novel. Third, an investigation into the theme of the tours of hell suggests a new chronological order, shows that the Christian tours were indebted to both Greek and Jewish models, and illustrates that in the course of time the genre dropped a large part of its Jewish heritage. The fourth and final section concentrates on the most famous and intriguing report of an ancient martyrdom: the Passion of Perpetua. It pays special attention to the motivation and visions of Perpetua, which are analyzed not by taking recourse to modern theories such as psychoanalysis, but by looking to the world in which Perpetua lived, both Christian and pagan. It is only by seeing the early Christians in their ancient world that we might begin to understand them and their emerging communities. (Publisher's description).
