Download or read book Letters of Engagement 1884 1888 written by Adrian Hope and published by Virago Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The archives of the Hope-Troubridge alliance are endless, yet fascinating. Laura Troubridge's early journals dating from 1873 up to her engagement to Adrian Hope in 1884 have already been published as Life Amongst the Troubridges : Journals of a Young Victorian 1873-1884 (0953474607) and now these letters between Adrian and Laura during their long engagement from 2 August 1884 to exactly four years later -- 2 August 1888, continue the story up to their marriage. Laura collected their 'engagement letters' and arranged them in date order to form a continuous running dialogue. They used to think of their letters as being the next best thing to talking face to face and the daily posts being considerably faster and more frequent than those of today, their answers or comments on exchanges of news are near enough to the original questions to make this 'conversational' aspect ring true. Their love letters over this engagement period of four years are equal in length to four average novels and massive cuts were necessary to arrive at a readable package.
Download or read book In the Studios of Paris written by James Frederick Peck and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Bouguereau (1825-1905) was an influential French academic painter, who taught a long succession of gifted students, primarily at the private Acad�mie Julian in Paris. Among them, Bouguereau instructed more than two hundred young American artists. In the Studios of Paris provides a unique look at the history of Parisian art education during the last quarter of the 19th century and its profound influence on American art. This landmark publication--the first to focus exclusively on Bouguereau and his American pupils--presents sixty-five paintings, drawings, and prints by the master and eleven of his most prominent students, including Eanger Irving Couse, Elizabeth Gardner Bouguereau, and Robert Henri. A series of carefully researched essays place the artists’ work in historical context and discuss various American responses to Bouguereau’s painting and pedagogical techniques, along with the subsequent reception and collecting of their work in the United States.

Download or read book Praying the Angelus written by Jared Dees and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2017-03-03 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Angelus is a centuries-old Catholic devotion that recalls the annunciation of Christ’s birth by the Angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary. In Praying the Angelus, popular author and speaker Jared Dees reinvigorates the devotion, shares intimately from his own experience of it, shows us how to get started, and enriches the practice with original meditations to reflect on the words of both the Angelus and the Regina Caeli. Jared Dees was twenty-seven and in his fourth year of teaching religion in a Catholic school when he first experienced the Angelus. The creator of The Religion Teacher website allows the devotion to anchor his prayer life and challenge him to daily conversion of heart and will. Dees introduces the Angelus devotion and explores its rich history and significance for the Church. As spiritual companion and guide, he offers meditations on the words and images of both the Angelus and the Regina Caeli, which is prayed during the Easter season. We find lessons about the power of repetitive prayer, the humility of being a disciple, the importance of admitting time belongs to God, the wisdom of taking time with discernment, and the joy of resting in the Lord’s presence. He shares personal stories of the life-change power of the Angelus and guides both newcomers and those already familiar with the prayer to contemplate the mysteries of salvation that lie at the heart of the devotion—the Annunciation, Incarnation, and Resurrection. Named for the opening words of the devotion's first prayer in Latin, "The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary," the Angelus is typically prayed at 6:00 a.m., noon, and 6:00 p.m. each day. Likewise the Regina Caeli is named for the opening lines of its prayer, "Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia." Praying the Angelus is supported by Dees’s website, TheAngelusPrayer.com, where people can gather online to participate in and share this devotion with others.
