Book Queer Roma

    Book Details:
  • Author : Lucie Fremlova
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2021-10-04
  • ISBN : 1000486567
  • Pages : 150 pages

Download or read book Queer Roma written by Lucie Fremlova and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-10-04 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers in-depth insight into the lives of queer Roma, thus providing rich evidence of the heterogeneity of Roma. The lived experiences of queer Roma, which are very diverse regionally and otherwise, pose a fundamental challenge to one-dimensional, negative misrepresentations of Roma as homophobic and antithetical to European and Western modernity. The book platforms Romani agency and voices in an original and novel way. This enables the reader to feel the individuals behind the data, which detail stories of rejection by Romani families and communities, and non-Romani communities; and unfamiliar, ground-breaking stories of acceptance by Romani families and communities. Combining intersectionality with queer theory innovatively and applying it to Romani Studies, the author supports her arguments with data illustrating how the identities of queer Roma are shaped by antigypsyism and its intersections with homophobia and transphobia. Thanks to its theoretical and empirical content, and its location within a book series on LGBTIQ lives that appeals to an international audience, this authoritative book will appeal to a wide range of readers. It will a be useful resource for libraries, community and social service workers, third-sector Romani and LGBTIQ organisations, activists and policymakers; an invaluable source of information for scholars, teachers and students of bigger modules in undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate courses in a cross section of academic disciplines and subject areas. These include, but are not limited to, LGBTIQ/Queer Studies; Women’s, Gender and Sexuality Studies; Romani Studies; Sociology; Anthropology; Human Geography; Area Studies; Cultural Studies; Social Movement Studies; Media Studies; Psychology; Heath Science; Social Science; Political Science.

Book 50 A  os en la iglesia de Roma

Download or read book 50 A os en la iglesia de Roma written by Charles Chiniquy and published by Chick Publications. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La conversión de Charles Chiniquy, un ex sacerdote católico He aquí la hermosa y conmovedora historia de un sacerdote que no pudo permanecer en la Iglesia Católica Romana. Te reirás y llorarás con Chíniquy, y tu corazón se conmoverá con un profundo deseo de obedecer a Cristo y solamente a Él. Siendo niño, Chíniquy memorizaba las Escrituras en el regazo de su madre y desarrolló un profundo amor a Dios. Al llegar a ser sacerdote, desesperadamente quería poner su confianza plena en su “Iglesia”, pero lo inundaban olas de dudas porque su “Iglesia” profesaba adhesión al Evangelio; sin embargo, lo violaba continuamente. Sus superiores celosos le acusaron falsamente, pero Abraham Lincoln lo defendió y salvó su reputación. Chíniquy prueba que fueron los Jesuitas quienes más tarde asesinaron a Abraham Lincoln y explica por qué. Finalmente, su obispo demandó que desechara su preciosa Biblia y prometiera obediencia ciega a la “Iglesia”. Después de una noche oscura de lucha interior, salió gloriosamente salvo y guió casi a toda la población de St. Anne, Illinois, a confiar solamente en Cristo. Esta es la mejor obra que se haya escrito para mostrar, desde adentro, lo que el Catolicismo realmente es.

Book James Joyce   Roma y Otras Historias

Download or read book James Joyce Roma y Otras Historias written by Giuseppe Cafiero and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "James Joyce, Roma e altre storie" descrive i mesi in cui scrittore irlandese James Joyce ("Ulisse", "Finnegans Wake", "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man"), ha vissuto a Roma, tra il 1906 e il 1907. E' un rendiconto degli incontri tra Joyce e il detective Herr David Mondine, delle lettere scritte dal Mr. Joyce al suo fratello Stanislaus e di un diario tenuto da Herr Mondine, che costruisce una coinvolgente narrazione di quei giorni. Joyce, frustrato dalla vita che conduceva a Trieste - allora parte dell'Impero d'Austria-Ungheria - fugge, con Miss Nora Barnacle, una moglie non sposata, e con il loro figlioletto Giorgio, a Roma per una nuova avventura pur detestando questa città così devota a un ritualismo volgare e a una smodata pompa liturgica. Mr. Joyce si aggirerà per la città di Roma come un spaesato visitatore catturato da luoghi che trova orribili e spettrali e che si accontenta di sostare piacevolmente in taverne e locande per mangiare e bere. Nel suo vagabondare Joyce tratteggia sovente affascinanti analogie tra la sua nativa Dublino e Roma, fra una città legata a vecchi e bizzarri miti e un'altra segnata da glorie mummificate tra maestose rovine e orribili edifici eretti in onore di un nuovo secolo. "Il libro è arricchito da ben 140 foto d'epoca che mostrano personaggi e luoghi frequentati da James Joyce e da Mr. Davide Mondine, il suo alter ego" +++ "James Joyce, Roma y otras Historias" describir los meses en que el autor irlandés James Joyce ("Ulises", "Finnegans Wake", "Retrato del Artista como un Hombre Joven") vivió en Roma, entre 1906 y 1907. Narraciones de los encuentros entre Mr. Joyce y el detective Herr David Mondine, y las cartas escritas por Mr. Joyce a su hermano Stanislaus, así como el diario escrito por el Sr. David Mondine constituyen una emocionante reconstrucción de esos días. Joyce se siente frustrado con su vida en Trieste -entonces parte de Austria-Hungría y hoy parte de Italia-así que, acompañado por su mujer Nora Barnacle y su pequeño hijo Giorgio, sale huyendo de esa ciudad puerto en el Adriático en busca de nuevas aventuras en Roma, esa capital tan Católica, a la que llega a aborrecer por su vulgar ritualismo e inmoderada pompa litúrgica. Mr. Joyce vaga como un nómada de corazón capturado por una ciudad que encuentra horrenda y fantasmal y pasa el tiempo en tabernas y hosterías, comiendo y bebiendo. El artista encuentra fascinantes similitudes entre su nativa Dublín y Roma, hija legítima de una ciudad de mitos viejos y glorias momificadas, establecida entre ruinas majestuosas y edificios ridículos erigidos en honor de un nuevo siglo. El libro se enriquece con unas 140 fotografías antiguas que muestran a personas y lugares frecuentados por James Joyce y el Sr. David Mondine, su alter ego.

Book Roma in the Medieval Islamic World

Download or read book Roma in the Medieval Islamic World written by Kristina Richardson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2022 Dan David Prize for outstanding scholarship that illuminates the past and seeks to anchor public discourse in a deeper understanding of history In Middle Eastern cities as early as the mid-8th century, the Sons of Sasan begged, trained animals, sold medicinal plants and potions, and told fortunes. They captivated the imagination of Arab writers and playwrights, who immortalized their strange ways in poems, plays, and the Thousand and One Nights. Using a wide range of sources, Richardson investigates the lived experiences of these Sons of Sasan, who changed their name to Ghuraba' (Strangers) by the late 1200s. This name became the Arabic word for the Roma and Roma-affiliated groups also known under the pejorative term 'Gypsies'. This book uses mostly Ghuraba'-authored works to understand their tribal organization and professional niches as well as providing a glossary of their language Sin. It also examines the urban homes, neighborhoods, and cemeteries that they constructed. Within these isolated communities they developed and nurtured a deep literary culture and astrological tradition, broadening our appreciation of the cultural contributions of medieval minority communities. Remarkably, the Ghuraba' began blockprinting textual amulets by the 10th century, centuries before printing on paper arrived in central Europe. When Roma tribes migrated from Ottoman territories into Bavaria and Bohemia in the 1410s, they may have carried this printing technology into the Holy Roman Empire.

Book The Triggering Procedure of the International Criminal Court

Download or read book The Triggering Procedure of the International Criminal Court written by Héctor Olásolo and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rome Statute, unlike the statutes of the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda, creates a permanent court whose dormant jurisdiction covers the territory and includes the nationals of States Parties and is universal in cases where the Security Council makes a referral. Besides, unlike the "ad hoc" tribunals, which have jurisdiction over specific crisis situations whose personal, territorial and temporal parameters have been defined in their respective statutes by the UN Security Council, in the case of the ICC it is not possible to determine a priori in which situations the ICC will be involved. As a result, the most relevant activity of the Court is the determination of those situations regarding which the dormant jurisdiction of the Court will be triggered. The book "The Triggering Procedure of the International Criminal Court" constitutes the first comprehensive analysis of the proceedings that, prior to any criminal investigation, aim to make such a fundamental determination.
