Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Convent’s Assassin A nun has been murdered. In the room a sleeping body offers its uncovered throat. In a split second, the murder-ous arm rises and strikes its target two times. The weapon pierces the throat to the right and to the left. The body convulses for a moment before surrendering to death. The door closes and the shadow slips back into the darkness. The deceased is Mother Notre-Dame-Des-Pins, the Mother Guardian of the Convent. One could say that she was a mean and cruel woman. Many lives were held captive in her hands. All feared destruction by her vengeful nature. She had to die. However, who possessed the courage to administer justice? Was the killer a nun or her young paramour? Or rather, these two lovers surprised in action by the terrible woman? Or perhaps this good chaplain with a heavy conscience? Just what goes on behind the closed doors of Convents? Set in the 1950s, this spell-binding murder mystery holds its secrets until the very end.
Download or read book Not Quite Us written by Kevin P. Anderson and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In twentieth-century Canada, mainline Protestants, fundamentalists, liberal nationalists, monarchists, conservative Anglophiles, and left-wing intellectuals had one thing in common: they all subscribed to a centuries-old world view that Catholicism was an authoritarian, regressive, untrustworthy, and foreign force that did not fit into a democratic, British nation like Canada. Analyzing the connections between anti-Catholicism and national identity in English Canada, Not Quite Us examines the consistency of anti-Catholic tropes in the public and private discourses of intellectuals, politicians, and clergymen, such as Arthur Lower, Eugene Forsey, Harold Innis, C.E. Silcox, F.R. Scott, George Drew, and Emily Murphy, along with those of private Canadians. Challenging the misconception that an allegedly secular, civic, and more tolerant nationalism that emerged excised its Protestant and British cast, Kevin Anderson determines that this nationalist narrative was itself steeped in an exclusionary Anglo-Protestant understanding of history and values. He shows that over time, as these ideas were dispersed through editorials, cartoons, correspondence, literature, and lectures, they influenced Canadians' intimate perceptions of themselves and their connection to Britain, the ethno-religious composition of the nation, the place of religion in public life, and national unity. Anti-Catholicism helped shape what it means to be "Canadian" in the twentieth century. Not Quite Us documents how equating Protestantism with democracy and individualism permeated ideas of national identity and continues to define Canada into the twenty-first century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Réunissant plus de cent trente lettres et fragments de lettres de la correspondance privée et diplomatique de l'humaniste toulousain Jean de Pins, Jan Pendergrass ouvre une perspective unique sur quelque quarante ans d'histoire française et européenne. Humaniste, juriste, diplomate et homme d'Eglise sous les règnes de Louis XII et François Ier, de Pins fit de longues études en France et en Italie du nord avant de devenir, tour à tour, sénateur aux Parlements de Toulouse et Milan, puis ambassadeur français à Venise et à Rome. Consacré évêque de Rieux en 1524, il se démit de ses fonctions parlementaires et finit ses jours à Toulouse, entouré d'étudiants et de gens de lettres épris de littérature classique. Cette édition de sa correspondance révèle l'étendue considérable de ses rapports, non seulement avec les représentants de l'humanisme européen, mais aussi avec les chefs de la diplomatie française, avec des parlementaires, des gens de loi et d'Eglise exceptionnels.
