Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful Ring-Witches, Mayra and Wolfe have fled their kingdom with the dragons they rescued, accompanied by their witch-warrior friends. But once they reach the dragon’s icy homeland, they find an empty Aerie. Where are the female dragons and their younglings? Barely do the witches have time to rest before they are winging their way to rescue the stolen dragons. But the dragons are keeping a secret from Mayra and Wolfe, and the witches quickly find themselves trapped in a vast system of caverns with Hagan, an evil, fanatical dragon. Having found a powerful talisman so horrifying that Mayra can scarcely believe it, Hagan knows he has the upper claw, and Mayra is running out of time. The female dragons and their tiny offspring will be killed unless Mayra permits Hagan to collect his terrible treasure from its hiding place. But if she doesn’t wrest the talisman from Hagan before he can use it, he will take control of all the dragons. Can Mayra and Wolfe rescue the dragons—large and small—and find the talisman before all that the mighty dragons hold dearest to them is destroyed? Mayra and Wolfe once battled with dragons at their sides and easily won against humans. But they know the tides have turned; Hagan is a wielder of dark dragon magic. And he dares the humans to battle him—the most savagely horrific dragon ever hatched—a dragon that even other dragons fear.
Download or read book Catherine of Siena written by Guiliana Cavallini and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2005-03-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From her earliest years, Catherine of Siena (1347-80) was griped by the mystery of God incarnate. This was the beginning of a life-long love story, a life-long conversion in which Christ spoke to Catherine and she communicated the truth of his being to the world of her time. Creation itself, she says, is an act of love, and Christ is the bridge by which human beings come to realize their full humanity, their inmost nature, which is to love. Mystic, champion of the poor and Church reformer, Catherine was declared a Doctor of the Church in 1970. She was unable to write until she was thirty, but she corresponded with Popes, Cardinals, scholars and civic authorities. She was a true daughter of the fourteenth century, famous in her own life time, and yet her thinking and her work seem entirely relevant in the political and ecclesial context of our own time. When Pope Paul VI was asked whether she should be considered a politician, his answer was yes, but in a thoroughly spiritual way; this, he said, is why 'the teaching of this singular woman politician is still meaningful and valuable'.

Download or read book Miracles of the Virgin in Medieval England written by Adrienne Williams Boyarin and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2010 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First book-length study of hagiographical legends of the Virgin Mary in medieval England, with particular reference to her relationship with Jews, books, and the law. Legendary accounts of the Virgin Mary's intercession were widely circulated throughout the middle ages, borrowing heavily, as in hagiography generally, from folktale and other motifs; she is represented in a number of different, often surprising, ways, rarely as the meek and mild mother of Christ, but as bookish, fierce, and capricious, amongst other attributes. This is the first full-length study of their place in specifically English medieval literary and cultural history. While the English circulation of vernacular Miracles of the Virgin is markedly different from continental examples, this book shows how difference and miscellaneity can reveal important developments withinan unwieldy genre. The author argues that English miracles in particular were influenced by medieval England's troubled history with its Jewish population and the rapid thirteenth-century codification of English law, so that Maryfrequently becomes a figure with special dominion over Jews, text, and legal problems. The shifting codicological and historical contexts of these texts make it clear that the paradoxical sign"Mary" could signify in both surprisingly different and surprisingly consistent ways, rendering Mary both mediatrix and legislatrix. ADRIENNE WILLIAMS BOYARIN is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Victoria (British Columbia).

Book excerpt: #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • In this electrifying thriller from the author of Police and The Snowman, Inspector Harry Hole hunts down a serial murderer who targets his victims—on Tinder. The murder victim, a self-declared Tinder addict. The one solid clue—fragments of rust and paint in her wounds—leaves the investigating team baffled. Two days later, there’s a second murder: a woman of the same age, a Tinder user, an eerily similar scene. The chief of police knows there’s only one man for this case. But Harry Hole is no longer with the force. He promised the woman he loves, and he promised himself, that he’d never go back: not after his last case, which put the people closest to him in grave danger. But there’s something about these murders that catches his attention, something in the details that the investigators have missed. For Harry, it’s like hearing “the voice of a man he was trying not to remember.” Now, despite his promises, despite everything he risks, Harry throws himself back into the hunt for a figure who haunts him, the monster who got away. Don't miss Jo Nesbo's latest Harry Hole novel, coming May 2023!
Download or read book Balancing the Scales written by Marie A. Conn and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2003 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Balancing the Scales, a book of essays by faculty members of Chestnut Hill College in Philadelphia, is an exploration of the manipulation and transformation of symbolic concepts of women. A multidisciplinary collection, representing Art History, English, Spanish Language and Literature, Psychology, and Theology, this book hopes to raise awareness of the historical perception of women before and after the so-called patriarchal revolution. In the eighth century BCE, the Greek poet Hesiod changed the character of Pandora, a manifestation of the Great Earth Mother, into Pandora, the bringer of evil. This fundamental change in the nature of the female archetype influenced the biblical writers and their depiction of Eve. In the medieval period, artistic renderings of the Whore of Babylon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun resulted in cultic images of women as either whore (Eve) or pure virgin (Mary). The apparitions and miraculous images of the Black Madonna at Montserrat and Guadalupe show the persistence of the divine feminine in popular culture even as institutional religion denies her existence. The story of Cleopatra breaks open the question of why strong women are seen as frightening. The essays conclude with psychological study of the imbalance induced by millennia of patriarchal domination, resulting in the loss of the sacred feminine.

Book excerpt: Deep in the heart of the beast, Taj finds himself a slave in more ways than one and yet, he is still unyielding in his attempt to end the madness of Corvana. Corvana initially pledged war for fear that the southern pantheon of Runethedian didnt know how to control itself and/or the magic it managed to uncover and/or otherwise harness. The war Corvana waged against the entire pantheon came to be known as The White War by Corvanians. Nearly all those that have walked alongside Taj Odin Xavier have fallen. Only Malakai and Giovanni remain and Giovanni is not always the most accountable person. Allies from the Northern land, from Corvana are made and a united people under new leadership fight together, refusing to be divided by a common enemy far greater than even Raino Shadowblood, the last Forsaken. In the end, Thedia is forever changed and the lands of the world become even more calloused. Are the sins of the father truly past to the son? When the door on Tajs quest is finally shut, another opens when his sons Legion and Dauge and his daughter Dusk set out on an adventure of their own. Perhaps they seek fame and fortune or perhaps the answer to the lone question. Do we belong in the Republic of New Magic or Eternis? After all, they were all raised in the Republic but their origins are divided. Will Taj see them grow and live to guide them through the mistakes he made or will he die somewhere amidst the smoke of a scarred land, never to see home again? Perhaps he will live to an old ripe age and laugh at the thought of his fathers words to him when he was a child? Or, will it be the legacy of a fallen hero left behind guiding them? Or, maybe just maybe Falling Star proves too great of a threat for the scarred world of Thedia and the entire plane is hurled into a state of Darkness, where the shadow reigns supreme forever?
