Download or read book A Family Place written by Charles Gaines and published by Skyhorse. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1990, writer Charles Gaines and his artist wife, Patricia, bought 160 acres of wild land on the northeast coast of Nova Scotia. They believed they were simply buying a remote getaway spot, but within a few months a more complex dream for the property developed. By midwinter, they had begun to see the land as a place where family intimacy might be reclaimed, as a home that might heal their recently battered marriage, and as an opportunity to take on a big, risky, long-term project instead of settling into the caution and gradual losses of middle-class middle age. Enlisting their children and their daughter’s carpenter boyfriend, they decided to build a cabin on the land the following summer, to build it with their own hands, as a family venture. A Family Place gracefully mixes a narrative of that summer’s sometimes harrowing, sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking events with passages of the family’s history that show its members as real people and dramatize what is at stake for each of them in Nova Scotia. Gaines describes the process of building a cabin while living in tents without electricity or running water, and the pleasures and limitations of a life so simplified that a week’s biggest social event is a bonfire. He draws a deft portrait of the small, generous, hearth-centered Acadian community of farmers and lobster fishermen surrounding their land, and traces the history of that land to its original French-Acadian owner. And he tracks the mood of his family through the long, difficult summer, from initial enthusiasm to near mutiny, and finally to exhilaration and deep satisfaction at having built something that will last, having rebuilt a family in the process.
Download or read book Through Faith Fire written by Gabriel Bertonière and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fascintating tale of hardship and triumph of THROUGH FAITH & FIRE begins in France, where monastic communities of all kinds found themselves struggling to survive in the wake of the French Revolution. A small band of Trappist monks set out on a years-long quest to find a new home--a quest that took them to Switzerland, Russia, Belgium, Canada and ultimately to New England and their present home among the hills of Spencer, MA. As the story unfolds, a succession of courageous abbots and brothers face travails from poor harvests, diseases, and physical deprivations to their perpetual nemesis of devastating fires. Their ability to rise above it all, against all odds, testifies to the power of their faith and committment to the highest principles. Thoroughly researched and lovingly told, Father Bentoniere brings this compelling history and its cast of characters to life, as generation after generation strives to maintain a life dedicated to prayer, work and contemplation.
Download or read book Rotuli Parisienses 2 vols written by William J. Courtenay and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-03-27 with total page 1166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume continues the edition of the rotuli, or lists of benefice supplications, sent to the papacy by masters, bachelors, and students at the University of Paris in the fourteenth century. It specifically covers the pontificate of the Avignon pope Clement VII (1378-1394). It also contains letters of provision, in abbreviated form, that resulted from those petitions, along with a large number of supplications from individual Parisian scholars either submitted independently or, more frequently, through another sponsor. In contrast to earlier papal beneficial policy, Pope Clement responded favorably to many petitions from students in the faculty of arts at Paris, some of them in the beginning years of their undergraduate education. Thus, in addition to providing important information on Parisian scholars and papal beneficial policy in the early years of the Papal Schism, it documents a portion of the university community otherwise invisible, namely undergraduate students, and reveals the connections between Parisian scholars and social and ecclesiastical patrons at the end of the fourteenth century. The book concludes with an index of the names of scholars and patrons as well as a place-name index locating the parish and collegiate churches mentioned in the texts. Along with the two earlier volumes, this edition represents the largest body of new documentation for the pre-fifteenth century University to appear since the publication of the Chartularium Universitatis Parisiensis at the end of the nineteenth century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couverture indique : "Fondée par saint Bernard en 1115, l’abbaye de Clairvaux connut un rayonnement extraordinaire dans l’Occident médiéval et donna naissance à la branche la plus féconde de l’ordre de Cîteaux, avec plus de 360 maisons d’hommes. Entièrement rebâti au XVIIIe siècle, le monastère fut supprimé en 1790, ses bâtiments vendus comme biens nationaux puis transformés en maison centrale de détention en 1811. Malgré la richesse de ce passé, l’abbaye demeura pourtant dans l’ombre de son fondateur jusqu’à la création de l’association Renaissance de l’abbaye de Clairvaux en 1979, puis l’organisation du premier colloque sur l’histoire de Clairvaux en 1990. Vingt-cinq ans après, le neuvième centenaire de l’abbaye constitue une nouvelle étape dans la production historiographique claravallienne comme en témoigne la publication des Actes de ce deuxième colloque organisé à Troyes et à Clairvaux du 16 au 18 juin 2015. À travers une vingtaine d’essais répartis en quatre axes principaux, les auteurs dressent un bilan des dernières recherches de ce Temps long de Clairvaux et jettent les bases des études à venir : des îles Britanniques au Portugal, en passant par la Catalogne et la Sicile, ils nous conduisent le long de ce rameau si fertile ; de la porterie de l’abbaye-mère aux confins de la Transylvanie, ils racontent l’intégration des moines blancs dans le monde des campagnes et des villes ; de la bibliothèque du monastère aux créations de Le Corbusier, ils interrogent la culture de Clairvaux et l’existence, réelle ou imaginaire, d’un « art cistercien » ; enfin, du XVe au XVIIe siècle, ils nous présentent les figures de deux abbés entraînés dans la tourmente du Grand Schisme et des écueils de la commende."

Download or read book The Aristocracy in the County of Champagne 1100 1300 written by Theodore Evergates and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theodore Evergates provides the first systematic analysis of the aristocracy in the county of Champagne under the independent counts. He argues that three factors—the rise of the comital state, fiefholding, and the conjugal family—were critical to shaping a loose assortment of baronial and knightly families into an aristocracy with shared customs, institutions, and identity. Evergates mines the rich, varied, and in some respects unique collection of source materials from Champagne to provide a dynamic picture of a medieval aristocracy and its evolving symbiotic relationship with the counts. Count Henry the Liberal (1152-81) began the process of transforming a quasi-independent baronage accustomed to collegial governance into an elite of landholding families subordinate to the count and his officials. By the time Countess Jeanne married the future King Philip IV of France in 1284, the fiefholding families of Champagne had become a distinct provincial nobility. Throughout, it was the conjugal community, rather than primogeniture or patrilineage, that remained the core familial institution determining the customs regarding community property, dowry, dower, and partible inheritance. Those customs guaranteed that every lineage would survive, but frequently through a younger son or daughter. The life courses of women and men, influenced not only by social norms but also by individual choice and circumstance, were equally unpredictable. Evergates concludes that imposed models of "the aristocratic family" fail to capture the diversity of individual lives and lineages within one of the more vibrant principalities of medieval France.
