Download or read book The Book of Memory written by Mary Carruthers and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-05-01 with total page 875 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Carruthers's classic study of the training and uses of memory for a variety of purposes in European cultures during the Middle Ages has fundamentally changed the way scholars understand medieval culture. This fully revised and updated second edition considers afresh all the material and conclusions of the first. While responding to new directions in research inspired by the original, this new edition devotes much more attention to the role of trained memory in composition, whether of literature, music, architecture, or manuscript books. The new edition will reignite the debate on memory in medieval studies and, like the first, will be essential reading for scholars of history, music, the arts and literature, as well as those interested in issues of orality and literacy (anthropology), in the working and design of memory (both neuropsychology and artificial memory), and in the disciplines of meditation (religion).

Furthermore, cherished memories enrich our lives with a sense of gratitude and appreciation for the moments of beauty and joy that we have been fortunate enough to experience. They are imbued with the warmth of nostalgia, the sweetness of gratitude and the power of love. They remind us that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. Amidst the hustle and bustle of life, it’s vital to pause and honor these cherished moments, recognizing their significance and embracing their transformative power. They teach us to embrace the present, cherish the bonds we share and find solace in the beauty of life's simplest pleasures. In the grand tapestry of our existence, cherished memories are the threads that weave together a narrative of love, resilience and profound human connection, leaving an indelible imprint on our hearts and minds for eternity.

Download or read book A Most Felt Life The Memories and Lessons of a Successful Dreamer written by Mihalis Philotimo and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-04-29 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mihalis Philotimo, a native of Greece, wasn't born with riches, but he inherited what many of us lack: a fierce determination to succeed. The author pays homage to the values he was taught growing up in a small village in Greece in the 1940s and 1950s, including calculated action, presence of mind, attentiveness, and mental agility during fluid times. On a shepherd's mountaintop across the ocean and a world apart from the United States of America, he dreamt of a better life. In 1961, he left for Germany to work in a factory so he could earn money and acquire an education. Then he headed to Canada-a move that brought him one step closer to his dream of living in the United States. Once there, he began his quest to achieve his version of the American Dream. The first part of this book is filled with autobiographical entries from the author's diary-handwritten in his native Greek tongue and translated by the acclaimed film critic and professor, Constantine Santas, a fellow Hellene.

Download or read book Fiction Memory and Identity in the Cult of St Maurus 830 1270 written by John B. Wickstrom and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores one of the most significant medieval saints’ cults, that of St. Maurus, the first known disciple of Saint Benedict. Despite the centrality of this story to the myth of medieval Benedictine culture, no major scholarly work has been devoted to Maurus since the late nineteenth century. Drawing on memory studies, this book investigates the origins and history of the cult, from the ninth-century Life of St. Maurus by Odo, abbot of Glanfueil, to its appropriation and re-shaping by three powerful abbeys through to the thirteenth century—Fossés, Cluny, and Montecassino. It traces how these institutions deployed caches of mostly forged documents (many translated here for the first time) to adapt the cult to their aspirations and, moreover, considers how the cult adapted itself further, to face the challenges of the modern world.
