Book excerpt: "Aloysius wants to sing with his grandmother in the church choir - but he can't carry a tune! When Ali asks her why he can't sing, she tells him that singing is a gift from God, so Ali decidees to search for God to ask for the "gift". In this search he meets unusual characters, among them: Virgil, an Indian taxi driver; a rollerblading girl with orange hair who tries to teach him to sing like Elvis; an Italian boatman; two eccentric sisters who run a homeless shelter; a penniless man who thinks he's Humphrey Bogart; and a weeping bride who wants to sing a song about a rattlesnake at her wedding. Ali's odyssey leads him to big truths about the world. Back at home, he wonders if one of those strange people could have been God in disguise. When he sings a song about a rabbit, he sings well - not as well as others - but not too badly. Satisfied at last, he thanks God and goes to sleep." -- Back cover

Book excerpt: Saint Aloysius Gonzaga (1568- 1591) was a prince of the Holy Roman Empire who renounced his titles and wealth to serve God and the Church as a member of the Society of Jesus.

Using the saint's own letters and spiritual reflections, and other historical documents, this book offers unparalleled insights into his life and personality. Woven together with his biography are also portraits of other Jesuits and Reformation saints. The author explains the history of the Society of Jesus and shows how Aloysius Gonzaga played an important part in developing the Jesuit's educational apostolate. For those interested in Jesuit history, the Reformation, or simply this appealing saint, this book offers a unique perspective on an important period of Church history and what it means to pursue God's will without counting the cost.

Download or read book Aloysius Bertrand s Gaspard de la Nuit Beyond the Prose Poem written by Valentina Gosetti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aloysius Bertrand’s Gaspard de la Nuit (1842) is a familiar title to music lovers, thanks to Ravel’s piano work of the same name, and to specialists of French literature, especially those interested in Baudelaire’s prose poetry. Yet until very recently the collection and its author have generally been viewed almost exclusively through the prism of their pioneering role in the development of the prose poem. By placing Bertrand back in his original context, adopting a comparative approach and engaging with recent critical work on the collection, Valentina Gosetti proposes a substantial reassessment of Gaspard de la Nuit and promotes a new understanding of Bertrand in his own terms, rather than those of his successors. Through his playful and ironic reinterpretation of Romantic clichés, and his overt defiance of the boundaries of poetry and beauty, Bertrand emerges as a fascinating figure in his own right. This book is one of the first full-length studies of Bertrand’s work, and it will be of particular interest to specialists of the nineteenth century and of provincial literature, and to students of nineteenth-century poetry or the fantastic.

Download or read book Aloysius the Great written by John Maxwell O'Brien and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-25 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aloysius the Great is the story of Aloysius Gogarty, a young alcoholic American professor, pressured into becoming resident director of his college's study-abroad program in England. He departs resentful of the task foisted upon him, and disturbed at having to leave behind a woman he's recently become infatuated with. In England, Gogarty finds himself on a runaway roller-coaster of rebellious students, drugs, sex and academic politics. He continues to court his inamorata from afar and his alcoholism spirals out of control. Gogarty gets help in coping with his kaleidoscopic problems from an Oxford counterpart who is a wickedly witty and stalwart companion. They consume epic quantities of alcohol while concocting outlandish schemes to address these challenges. Miraculously, Gogarty not only survives this mayhem, but emerges a hero and crowns his achievements by coming to grips with his alcoholism. Gogarty's transatlantic courting also yields surprising results. Aloysius the Great is a treasure trove for admirers of James Joyce. Most of its chapters parallel episodes in Joyce's Ulysses. Many of its characters come from Ulysses and/or individuals significant in Joyce's life. Words and phrases from Ulysses (all within the public domain) are sprinkled harmoniously throughout the text and the reader is treated to a savory sampling of Joyce's prose. A number of novels drawing on classics of literary fiction have recently achieved critical acclaim. In this sense, Aloysius the Great is akin to such works as McBride's A Girl is a Half-Formed Thing (Joyce's A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man), Yanique's Land of Love and Drowning (Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude) and O'Neill's The Dog (Kafka's The Trial).
