Download or read book La generaci n del 98 en sus an cdotas written by José Esteban and published by Editorial Renacimiento. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He aquí a Unamuno, Baroja, don Ramón del Valle-Inclán, Benavente y los hermanos Machado, entre muchos otros. He aquí su ingente labor literaria, sus inesperadas, sus deslumbrantes frases y actitudes. He aquí la atractiva sugestión de sus discursos, sus voces caudalosas que desbordan y enriquecen la realidad, porque la obra de la generación del 98 no sólo fue escrita, sino que fue también oral. Y esta última, por su misma libertad discursiva, por su fugacidad, resulta más personal, más reveladora de sus propias personalidades. Sí, esta obra pasajera, anecdótica, que saltaba en el arco de la ruidosa tertulia, en la discusión ateneísta, en la rabia de un momento de acaloramiento, es de singular significado para conocer a los hombres que nos la ofrecen. Alfonso Reyes escribió en cierta ocasión que «hay que interesarse por las anécdotas», y se refería con esto a que la anécdota es, por esencia, reveladora. Y muestra en primer plano la psicología de sus autores, su perspicacia, su rapidez de respuesta, sus trasfondos, sus certeros diagnósticos ante una situación determinada. También su agudeza y capacidad de respuesta; además de la finura espiritual, el ingenio y el talento literario en una palabra. José Esteban. (Sigüenza, Guadalajara, 1936) ha repartido su vocación literaria entre la edición, la investigación, la crítica y la novela. Como escritor ha cultivado numerosos géneros y en el catálogo de Renacimiento y Espuela de Plata pueden encontrarse una buena muestra de sus trabajos con libros como Vituperio (y algún elogio) de la errata (2002), Judas... ¡Hi... de puta! Insultos y animadversión entre españoles (2003), Las mil y una palabras de casa de putas (2005) o El epigrama español (2008). Su labor como librero y editor de Turner fue fundamental para animar la cultura española durante el postfranquismo y la transición. Desde entonces ha sido responsable y asesor de un sinfín de ediciones, sobre todo de autores bohemios o finiseculares, y actualmente dirige para esta editorial la colección Biblioteca de Rescate, donde han aparecido ediciones suyas de Isidoro López Lapuya, Ciro Bayo o Manuel Ciges Aparicio.

Download or read book A Guide to Early Jewish Texts and Traditions in Christian Transmission written by Gabriele Boccaccini and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jewish culture of the Hellenistic and early Roman periods established a basis for all monotheistic religions, but its main sources have been preserved to a great degree through Christian transmission. This Guide is devoted to problems of preservation, reception, and transformation of Jewish texts and traditions of the Second Temple period in the many Christian milieus from the ancient world to the late medieval era. It approaches this corpus not as an artificial collection of reconstructed texts--a body of hypothetical originals--but rather from the perspective of the preserved materials, examined in their religious, social, and political contexts. It also considers the other, non-Christian, channels of the survival of early Jewish materials, including Rabbinic, Gnostic, Manichaean, and Islamic. This unique project brings together scholars from many different fields in order to map the trajectories of early Jewish texts and traditions among diverse later cultures. It also provides a comprehensive and comparative introduction to this new field of study while bridging the gap between scholars of early Judaism and of medieval Christianity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COMENTARIOS AL LIBRO DE ANECDOTAS DEL ING. MARIO FOYO F. "El hombre para estar completo, debe de plantar un arbol, tener un hijo y escribir un libro." Se me piden unas lineas, lo cual hago como un tributo al amigo. Es un libro lleno de vida, con grandes recuerdos de las epocas desde nino, hasta su madurez, con sus primas y parientes y que el y ellos gozaran de varias travesuras propias de su edad. Nos lleva a sus viajes y a la frontera, que era considerada "La Gomorra Mexicana." Asi como cuando y como fue ascendido en su servicio militar, con el apoyo de su Senora Madre, que si se hacia respetar y su cooperacion de prestarle el carro, que mucho sirvio para sus ascensos. Tambien, como logro subsistir hasta hoy, donde con amenidad, nos deleita con "ajos y cebollas," para aderezar "el guiso" tan alvaradeno. En fin, narraciones de intenso interes humano, salpicados de buen humor y gracia. Felicidades Mario y Lolita................disfrutenlo. RAYMUNDO COBO REYES ESCULTOR"

Download or read book The Efficacy of the Exorcistic Prayers in the Athonite Manuscript of Xiropotamou 98 2260 16 written by Jesmond Micallef and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-06 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 pandemic in the year 2020 exposed a fragility of human consciousness, at all latitudes. In the face of unforeseen threats, we are unable to react, or we become slaves to irrational instincts, which can lead to hysterical and obsessive behaviours, precisely those described by the diabolical possessions against which the Church has been fighting for two thousand years, since Christ entrusted her with power to defeat the devil. Moreover, the activity of exorcism is described in the Gospels as the main manifestation of the divine power of the Lord Jesus, which released from him for the salvation of men. This book presents, for the first time, an edition of the Xiropotamou manuscript 98 preserved at the Library of the Xiropotamou monastery of Mount Athos in Greece. It cushions the liturgical exorcistic prayer of the manuscript between a biblical study of this ancient activity of the Church and an overview of the Rite of Exorcism in Orthodox usage in Early, Middle, and Late Byzantium.
