Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Réunissant plus de cent trente lettres et fragments de lettres de la correspondance privée et diplomatique de l'humaniste toulousain Jean de Pins, Jan Pendergrass ouvre une perspective unique sur quelque quarante ans d'histoire française et européenne. Humaniste, juriste, diplomate et homme d'Eglise sous les règnes de Louis XII et François Ier, de Pins fit de longues études en France et en Italie du nord avant de devenir, tour à tour, sénateur aux Parlements de Toulouse et Milan, puis ambassadeur français à Venise et à Rome. Consacré évêque de Rieux en 1524, il se démit de ses fonctions parlementaires et finit ses jours à Toulouse, entouré d'étudiants et de gens de lettres épris de littérature classique. Cette édition de sa correspondance révèle l'étendue considérable de ses rapports, non seulement avec les représentants de l'humanisme européen, mais aussi avec les chefs de la diplomatie française, avec des parlementaires, des gens de loi et d'Eglise exceptionnels.

Download or read book Fragments written by Marilyn Monroe and published by HarperCollins Canada. This book was released on 2010-10-12 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marilyn Monroe’s image is so universal that we can’t help but believe that we know all there is to know of her. Every word and gesture made headlines and garnered controversy. Her serious gifts as an actor were sometimes eclipsed by her notoriety -- and the way the camera fell helplessly in love with her. But what of the other Marilyn? Beyond the headlines -- and the too-familiar stories of heartbreak and desolation -- was a woman far more curious, searching and hopeful than the one the world got to know. Even as Hollywood studios tried to mold and suppress her, Marilyn never lost her insight, her passion, and her humour. To confront the mounting difficulties of her life, she wrote. Now, for the first time, we can meet this private Marilyn and get to know her in a way we never have before. Fragments is an unprecedented collection of written artifacts -- notes to herself, letters, even poems -- in Marilyn’s own handwriting, never before published, along with rarely seen intimate photos. These bits of text -- jotted in notebooks, typed on paper or written on hotel letterhead -- reveal a woman who loved deeply and strove to perfect her craft. They show a Marilyn Monroe unsparing in her analysis of her own life, but also playful, funny and impossibly charming. The easy grace and deceptive lightness that made her performances so memorable emerge on the page, as does the simmering tragedy that made her last appearances so heartbreaking. Fragments is an event -- an unforgettable book that will redefine one of the greatest stars of the twentieth century and which, nearly fifty years after her death, will definitively reveal Marilyn Monroe’s humanity.

Download or read book Framing Paul written by Douglas A. Campbell and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All historical work on Paul presupposes a story concerning the composition of his letters -- which ones he actually wrote, how many pieces they might originally have consisted of, when he wrote them, where from, and why. But the answers given to these questions are often derived in dubious ways. In Framing Paul Douglas Campbell reappraises all these issues in rigorous fashion, appealing only to Paul s own epistolary data in order to derive a basic frame for the letters on which all subsequent interpretation can be built. Though figuring out the authorship and order of Paul s letters has been thought to be impossible, Campbell s Framing Paul presents a cogent solution to the puzzle.

Download or read book Everything in Common written by Fiona Jane Robertson Gregson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Possessions and how believers handle them are key topics in the NT. In this book, Fiona Gregson examines the practice and theology of sharing possessions in community in the NT by examining six diverse NT examples of sharing. Each example is considered in its historical and cultural context before being compared to one or more non-Christian examples to identify similarities and differences. Gregson identifies common characteristics across the NT examples and consistent distinctives in how the early church shared possessions compared to the surrounding cultures. Gregson's findings demonstrate that Christians subverted Roman patronage expectations; Christian groups were more diverse in their membership and exhibited more flexible, less structured examples of sharing; Christians placed greater emphasis on the free choice of individuals to contribute to sharing; and Christians more frequently participated in eating together and had a greater focus on relational bonds than was common in Graeco-Roman society/culture.
