ROMA LO EXIGE TODO. EN ROMA TODO ESTÁ EN VENTA. MALDITA SEA POR SIEMPRE ROMA. Mare Internum, año 75 a. C. Un barco mercante navega rumbo a la isla de Rodas. A bordo, Julio César acompañado sólo por su fiel Labieno. Obligado por sus enemigos a exiliarse de Roma, se dirige al encuentro con el maestro Apolonio para aprender oratoria y de este modo, a su regreso, iniciar una feroz pugna para ingresar en el Senado y enfrentarse allí al temido Cicerón. Así arranca la extraordinaria segunda entrega de la saga dedicada a Julio César por Santiago Posteguillo.

Comprenderemos los hábiles manejos de César para ascender en política y asistiremos, incluso, al nacimiento de la reina Cleopatra a orillas del Nilo. Una novelamagistral que nos habla sobre el auténtico precio del poder. Y es que Julio César está a punto de aprender que Roma lo exige todo, hasta su bien más preciado, lo único que él no está dispuesto a entregar. Pero Roma no negocia con nadie. Ni con César.

Download or read book Paul Corinth and the Roman Empire written by Panayotis Coutsoumpos and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul's letter to the Corinthians provides an exclusive quick look into the social and political life of a young Christian congregation in a Greco-Roman environment during the early decades when Christianity was emerging. The letter provides a range and richness of information regarding the early church that is unparalleled by any other writing in the New Testament. Much effort has gone into reconstructing the Christian church at Corinth; more recently, attention has focused on the Corinthian congregation itself and its influence towards the community of the Roman Empire. The scholarly picture of the Corinthian community throughout the period of modern interpretation has been far from constant. It has been continually altered as interpretative fashions have changed.

Download or read book Sua Sponte written by Dick Couch and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sua Sponte Latin for “Of Their Own Accord” The 75th Ranger Regiment’s Motto Army Rangers are not born. They are made. The modern 75th Ranger Regiment represents the culmination of 250 years of American soldiering. As a fighting force with our nation’s oldest and deepest tradition, the Regiment traces its origins to Richard Rogers’s Rangers during the prerevolutionary French and Indian War, through the likes of Francis Marion and John Mosby, to the five active Ranger battalions of the Second World War, and finally, to the four battalions of the current Ranger regiment engaged in modern combat. Granted unprecedented access to the training of this highly restricted component of America’s Special Operations Forces in a time of war, retired Navy captain Dick Couch tells the personal story of the young men who begin this difficult and dangerous journey to become Rangers. Many will try, but only a select few will survive to serve in the 75th Ranger Regiment. Sua Sponte follows a group of these aspiring young warriors through the crucible that is Ranger training and their preparation for direct-action missions in Afghanistan against America’s enemies, anywhere, any time, and under any conditions.

Download or read book Reckless Life The Guns n Roses Graphic Novel written by Marc Olivent and published by Omnibus Press. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the writer of Gabba Gabba Hey! The Graphic Story of The Ramones and Metallica: Nothing Else Matters comes an explosive new graphic novel about The Most Dangerous Band in the World: Guns N' Roses.
Having sold over 100 million albums, recorded the most expensive album ever, endlessly courted controversy with their lyrics and a full-on hedonistic lifestyle, Guns N' Roses are well acquainted with rock 'n' roll excess. And it's all here in Reckless Life: the feud between Axl Rose and Kurt Cobain, the riots during concerts, Rose's interest in Charles Manson, the acrimonious departure of Slash, the drugs, the groupies and, of course, the music.
Marc Olivent's stunning artwork and Jim McCarthy's incisive script perfectly capture the rollercoaster tale of Axl Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan, Steve Adler and the many others who have passed through the Guns N' Roses story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intimate story of an Italian peasant community’s unique conversion to the Jewish faith, and its links to major changes that swept twentieth-century Europe Not many people know of the utterly extraordinary events that took place in a humble southern Italian town in the first half of the twentieth century—and those who do have struggled to explain them. In the late 1920s, a crippled shoemaker had a vision where God called upon him to bring the Jewish faith to this “dark corner” in the Catholic heartlands, despite his having had no prior contact with Judaism itself. By 1938, about a dozen families had converted at one of the most troubled times for Italy’s Jews. The peasant community came under the watchful eyes of Mussolini’s regime and the Catholic Church, but persisted in their new belief, eventually securing approval of their conversion from the rabbinical authorities, and emigrating to the newly founded State of Israel, where a community still exists today. In this first fully documented examination of the San Nicandro story, John A. Davis explains how and why these incredible events unfolded as they did. Using the converts’ own accounts and a wide range of hitherto unknown sources, Davis uncovers the everyday trials and tribulations within this community, and shows how they intersected with many key contemporary issues, including national identity and popular devotional cults, Fascist and Catholic persecution, Zionist networks and postwar Jewish refugees, and the mass exodus that would bring the Mediterranean peasant world to an end. Vivid and poignant, this book draws fresh and intriguing links between the astonishing San Nicandro affair and the wider transformation of twentieth-century Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La gran trilogía sobre Julio César. La leyenda acaba aquí. En Hispania se librará la batalla que cambiará para siempre la Historia. A pesar de la gran victoria de Farsalia y la muerte de Pompeyo, la guerra civil no ha terminado para Julio César. Sus oponentes se han atrincherado en África y desde allí están preparando la revuelta. Así, después de haber aniquilado la amenaza de Farnaces, el rey del Ponto, y sofocada la revuelta de los soldados, el dictador no tiene más remedio que enfrentarse a sus enemigos. La campaña africana será agotadora, también porque Julio César se verá obligado a lidiar con su propio declive: desgastado por años de guerra y luchas. Una vez más, sin embargo, gracias a su suerte y, sobre todo, a la ayuda de quienes lo apoyan -desde el fiel Ortwin, hasta sus lugartenientes más secretos-, el dictador logra ganar la guerra, eliminar a la mayoría de los oponentes y regresar a Roma triunfante. Sin embargo, algunos enemigos aún sobreviven... Y es en Hispania donde se produce el enfrentamiento entre el dictador y los que aún se niegan a aceptar su poder. En esta la última y dramática batalla de la trilogía Dictator confluyen los destinos de Pompeyo el Joven, Quinto Labieno, hijo de Tito, y los alemanes Ortwin y Veleda.

Download or read book The Only Girl in the World written by Maude Julien and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of Room and The Glass Castle, an astonishing memoir of one woman's rise above an unimaginable childhood. Maude Julien's parents were fanatics who believed it was their sacred duty to turn her into the ultimate survivor -- raising her in isolation, tyrannizing her childhood and subjecting her to endless drills designed to "eliminate weakness." Maude learned to hold an electric fence for minutes without flinching, and to sit perfectly still in a rat-infested cellar all night long (her mother sewed bells onto her clothes that would give her away if she moved). She endured a life without heat, hot water, adequate food, friendship, or any kind of affectionate treatment. But Maude's parents could not rule her inner life. Befriending the animals on the lonely estate as well as the characters in the novels she read in secret, young Maude nurtured in herself the compassion and love that her parents forbid as weak. And when, after more than a decade, an outsider managed to penetrate her family's paranoid world, Maude seized her opportunity. By turns horrifying and magical, The Only Girl in the World is a story that will grip you from the first page and leave you spellbound, a chilling exploration of psychological control that ends with a glorious escape.
