This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every trilogy needs an ending. It Don’t Matter: Amor Regge Senza Legge (Love Rules Without Rules or Laws) – The Third Novel in the Trilogy After a While You Wonder puts a proper period at the end of this series. Author Norman E. Edelen wraps up the story begun in After a While You Wonder and Tuesday After Next. It Don’t Matter starts with a new “dead or alive” search, this time for married DEA Agent Karen B. Doupchek, reportedly killed at the World Trade Center on 9/11. Doupchek’s single Joint Task Force partner, Treasury Agent Kevin A. Moore, refuses to believe she is dead. Recounting hearing Karen, as an apparition, saying to him on 9/11, “Wait for me, Kevin. I’m coming back to you.” Obsessed to find out what happened to Karen but unable to get help from the inside with government agencies that ought to know if she is dead, Kevin turns to the outside for help. He turns to people connected with the JTF’s target of interest, suspected drug laundering ex-L.A. cop Carl Quincy “Q” Sanes. It’s a very high-risk quid pro quo that seems destined to fail. Beguiling revelations, bizarre circumstances, and consequences with romantic twists make this a most intriguing read.

The agents are instructed to look like lovers as they check out the exclusive boutique hotel, Aubrey of St. Thomas. The hotel is managed by Aubrey Sanes, widow of ex-L.A. cop Carl Quincy “Q” Sanes, who died during church services four years ago. Q was cremated and his ashes thrown into the sea, but there was never an autopsy report or death certificate. The doctor who certified Q’s death in Puerto Rico also died, leaving no records. The widow’s profitable resort was started with a half million dollars that Q left her. The agents want to know how she parlayed that into such a money-making operation. Thinking the boutique is too much of a good thing, Kevin and Karen search for the “dead” Q, the money trail, or both. While sharing their progress on the case, the agents realize they’ve fallen for each other. Tuesday After Next is the second book in an intriguing trilogy

Download or read book Discourse on the State of the Jews written by Simone Luzzatto and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-07-08 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1638, a small book of no more than 92 pages in octavo was published “appresso Gioanne Calleoni” under the title “Discourse on the State of the Jews and in particular those dwelling in the illustrious city of Venice.” It was dedicated to the Doge of Venice and his counsellors, who are labelled “lovers of Truth.” The author of the book was a certain Simone (Simḥa) Luzzatto, a native of Venice, where he lived and died, serving as rabbi for over fifty years during the course of the seventeenth century. Luzzatto’s political thesis is simple and, at the same time, temerarious, if not revolutionary: Venice can put an end to its political decline, he argues, by offering the Jews a monopoly on overseas commercial activity. This plan is highly recommendable because the Jews are “wellsuited for trade,” much more so than others (such as “foreigners,” for example). The rabbi opens his argument by recalling that trade and usury are the only occupations permitted to Jews. Within the confines of their historical situation, the Venetian Jews became particularly skilled at trade with partners from the Eastern Mediterranean countries. Luzzatto’s argument is that this talent could be put at the service of the Venetian government in order to maintain – or, more accurately, recover – its political importance as an intermediary between East and West. He was the first to define the role of the Jews on the basis of their economic and social functions, disregarding the classic categorisation of Judaism’s alleged privileged religious status in world history. Nonetheless, going beyond the socio-economic arguments of the book, it is essential to point out Luzzatto’s resort to sceptical strategies in order to plead in defence of the Venetian Jews. It is precisely his philosophical and political scepticism that makes Luzzatto’s texts so unique. This edition aims to grant access to his works and thought to English-speaking readers and scholars. By approaching his texts from this point of view, the editors hope to open a new path in research into Jewish culture and philosophy that will enable other scholars to develop new directions and new perspectives, stressing the interpenetration between Jews and the surrounding Christian and secular cultures.

Download or read book Petrarch and the Textual Origins of Interpretation written by Teodolinda Barolini and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses one of the most far-reaching aspects of Petrarch research and interpretation: the essential interplay between Petrarch’s texts and their material preparation and reception. The essays look at various facets of the interaction between Petrarchan philology and hermeneutics, working from the premise that in Petrarch’s work philological issues are so authorially driven that we cannot in fact read or interpret him without understanding the relevant philological issues and reapplying them in our critical approach to his works. To read and interpret Petrarch we must come to grips with the fundamentals of Petrarchan philology. This volume aims to show how a Petrarchan hermeneutics must be based on an understanding of Petrarchan philology.
Download or read book The Ideal Life written by Henry Drummond and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2014-09-12 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after the death of Scottish evangelist and scholar Henry Drummond, his family celebrated his life by publishing this collection of his sermons, prefaced with memorials by evangelist W. Robertson Nicoll and theologian Ian Maclaren. Drummond addresses such topics as the nature of Christ, human sin and guilt, and salvation, and he suggests ways in which Christians can lead lives that are pleasing to God. Although determining the will of God for one’s life can often seem difficult, Drummond stresses the importance of prayer in listening for God’s voice and discerning His leading. Especially admired by young people during his life, Drummond’s warm character shines through in these heartfelt messages.
Download or read book Socrates or on Human Knowledge written by Simone Luzzatto and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-08-19 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Socrates, Or On Human Knowledge, published in Venice in 1651, is the only work written by a Jew that contains so far the promise of a genuinely sceptical investigation into the validity of human certainties. Simone Luzzatto masterly developed this book as a pièce of theatre where Socrates, as main actor, has the task to demonstrate the limits and weaknesses of the human capacity to acquire knowledge without being guided by revelation. He achieved this goal by offering an overview of the various and contradictory gnosiological opinions disseminated since ancient times: the divergence of views, to which he addressed the most attention, prevented him from giving a fixed definition of the nature of the cognitive process. This obliged him to come to the audacious conclusion of neither affirming nor denying anything concerning human knowledge, and finally of suspending his judgement altogether. This work unfortunately had little success in Luzzatto’s lifetime, and was subsequently almost forgotten. The absence of substantial evidence from his contemporaries and that of his epistolary have thus increased the difficulty of tracing not only its legacy in the history of philosophical though, but also of understanding the circumstances surrounding the writing of his Socrates. The present edition will be a preliminary study aiming to shed some light on the philosophical and historical value of this work’s translation, indeed it will provide a broader readership with the opportunity to access this immensely complicated work and also to grasp some aspects of the composite intellectual framework and admirable modernity of Venetian Jewish culture in the ghetto.
