Book Infamia  3

Download or read book Infamia 3 written by Daniel Augusson and published by Caliber Comics. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For fans of GLADIATOR and SPARTACUS! Before Rome was an empire, it was a city and a people born from legend. The Roman kings began a legacy of triumph and conquest that would last for centuries. However, as they grew in power, the priests of the city realized the danger of their tyranny. Members of the secretive Cult of Angerona dedicated their lives to serve as the city's protectors. Men and women from the underbelly of Roman society were enlisted to be their agents. The best of them formed an elite team that could go where soldiers could not and citizens dared not. These Infamia were the very people that society had turned its back on: actors, gladiators, prostitutes, and gamblers. They would operate, unseen and unthanked, to fend off the forces which threatened Rome. The first Infamia predate the Republic. With each new threat, a team emerges from the shadows to do what the great and the good cannot. THIS ISSUE: "The Enemy of My Enemy is My Enemy" -- The Infamia used the funeral of Julius Caesar to stir up the people of Rome condemning his assassins and giving their uneasy ally Octavian time to recruit support away from Caesar's lieutenants: Marc Antony and Lepidus. Octavian has grown confident in his position and is tightening his grip on power. He has organized a spectacle to further win over the people to his cause and has called the Infamia to attend him. He still needs them but they are not used to taking orders. A Caliber Comics release.

  • Author : Thelma Fenster
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2018-08-06
  • ISBN : 150171810X
  • Pages : 239 pages

Download or read book Fama written by Thelma Fenster and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In medieval Europe, the word fama denoted both talk (what was commonly said about a person or event) and an individual's ensuing reputation (one's fama). Although talk by others was no doubt often feared, it was also valued and even cultivated as a vehicle for shaping one's status. People had to think about how to "manage" their fama, which played an essential role in the medieval culture of appearances.At the same time, however, institutions such as law courts and the church, alarmed by the power of talk, sought increasingly to regulate it. Christian moral discourse, literary and visual representation, juristic manuals, and court records reflected concern about talk. This book's authors consider how talk was created and entered into memory. They address such topics as fama's relation to secular law and the preoccupations of the church, its impact on women's lives, and its capacity to shape the concept of literary authorship.

Book Shame  Blame  and Culpability

Download or read book Shame Blame and Culpability written by Judith Rowbotham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking collection of research-based chapters addresses the themes of shame, blame and culpability in their historical perspective in the broad area of crime, violence and the modern state, drawing on less familiar territories such as Russia and Greece, not just on material from familiar locations in western Europe. Ranging from the early modern to the late twentieth century, the collection has implications for how we understand punishments imposed by states or the community today. Shame, blame and culpability is divided into three sections, with a crucial case study part complementing two theoretical parts on shame, and on blame and culpability; exploring the continuance of shaming strategies and examining their interaction with and challenge to 'modern' state-sponsored blaming mechanisms, including allocations of culpability. The collection includes chapters on the deviant body, capital punishment and, of particular interest, Russian case studies, which demonstrate the extent to which the Russian, like the Greek, experience need to be seen as part of a wider European whole when examining ideas and themes. The volume challenges ideas that shame strategies were largely eradicated in post-Enlightenment western states and societies; showing their survival into the twentieth century as a challenge to state dominance over identification of what constituted 'crime' and also over punishment practices. Shame, blame and culpability will be a key text for students and academics in the fields of criminology and crime, gender or European history.
