Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lavin's study of the Pierro della Francesca "Flagellation" at Urbino, as befits this exquisite masterpiece, is a model of lucid and precise exposition as well as being an exciting exercise of scholarship. Informed with the intellectual rigour of Scholastic exegesis, it deserves to be placed with the classic readings of fifteenth and sixteenth century works by Erwin Panofsky and Edgar Wind."—Spectator "[Lavin] leaves the picture more wondrous than before, a simultaneous triumph of the theological and biographical, as well as pictorial, imagination."—Rackstraw Downes, New York Times Book Review

Download or read book Frank and I written by Anonymous and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scandalous book behind the movie "Lady Libertine." An aristrocrate named Charles meets a young man called Frank, whom he invites to come home with him. Frank is remarkably beautiful and well-mannered - and to Charles' big surprise, Frank turns out to be a woman! A young, sexy woman ... who loves to be spanked. A relationship filled with sex and flagellation begins ... Before internet porn, before porn videos, before porn movies, people lusting for raunchy, X-rated entertainment read pornographic books and magazines. Victorian and Edwardian England had its own adult entertainment industry - countless erotic novels were put out by shady publishers, some books were printed by the authors themselves, and most of the writers were anonymous. Many of these 19th century books are surprisingly kinky, and some of them may be quite offensive to modern day readers - in more ways than one. The anonymously written "Frank and I," first published in 1902, is a great example of vintage sadomasochistic erotica. The author is still unknown. In 1984, British producer Harry Alan Towers and French director Gérard Kikoïne turned the book into a movie, "Lady Libertine," starring Christopher Pearson and Jennifer Inch as Charles and Frank.

Download or read book Why He Is a Saint written by Slawomir Oder and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2010-10-19 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available in English for the first time, this engaging and enlightening biography of John Paul II argues the case that the late pope’s life and deeds make him a worthy saint. A number-one best seller in Italy, Why He Is a Saint is an account of the late pope’s life, highlighting his deep Christian faith, his dedication to the Church, and his role in bringing down communism. This book delves deeply into Pope John Paul’s spiritual essence, through the unprecedented light of the investigation into whether he merits sainthood. Why He Is a Saint reveals the pope’s life through vivid, intimate anecdotes. Among the book’s startling revelations are his thoughts of retirement as his health declined, and the fact that he practiced the ancient ritual of daily self-flagellation. The book includes both unpublished as well as public correspondence, such as the “open letter” of forgiveness to Ali Agka, his attempted assassin. It also examines the pope’s severe acts of penitence and documents his miracles. This impassioned plea in favor of canonizing the pope as a saint has proven to be of profound interest to Catholics worldwide, as well as to anyone interested in faith and spirituality.

Download or read book Flagellation and the Flagellants written by William M. Cooper and published by . This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The line between pain and pleasure is as thin as the tail of a whip, and this classic work is the definitive history of flagellation through the ages. As it shows, flagellation is much more than a punishment -it is also intimately tied to discipline and eroticism, has a romantic and even comic side, and has also been used for medical purposes. No one is above the bite of the birch or rod- convent nuns were chastised severely, queens have been flogged, and even favorites of the sultan have had to endure the whip in the great seraglios. The author deals in great detail with whipping in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, the favorite parts of the body for whipping, flagellation and discipline in monasteries and convents, whipping in prisons, the rod in Russia, flagellation in America, whipping in Europe and the Far East, the flogging of slaves, military flogging, school punishments, and the birch in the boudoir, all enlivened with colorful anecdotes. There is a chapter on the instruments of whipping, a selection of ribald and erotic poems on whipping, a section on eccentric forms of whipping such as that practiced on prostitutes, many detailed line drawings, descriptive accounts, and a full index. The work shows the fundamental place whipping has always played in human history, both publicly and in private, and continues to play today.The late Reverend William M. Cooper was an expert on the history of flagellation and discipline.

Download or read book Hail Orisha written by Peter McKenzie and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-08-14 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orisha worshippers who were not subjected to forced migration to the Americas in the nineteenth century remained their own masters, inhabiting cities, towns and farm villages in their West African kingdoms. This study uses documentation from Yoruba writings and from the written record of European missionaries to describe the various facets of their religious life. Arranged in the form of a phenomenology, the work deals with such matters as the veneration of the environment; carved images of the divine; the orisha celebrated in festival, worship and sacrifice; systems of divination; female and male religious specialists; and the protean divinities themselves. The comprehensive use of archival material will ensure the abiding value of this historical picture of the orisha, useful for comparisons with the present day.
