Fearing for his life, Charlie strikes a deal with Cap’n Buck and agrees to track down some folks accused of stealing from the cap’n and his boss.

Download or read book The Journey of a Book written by Elizabeth Keen and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De proprietatibus rerum, ‘On the properties of things’, has long been referred to by scholars as a medieval encyclopedia, but evidence suggests that it has been many things to many people. The sheer number of extant manuscript copies and printed editions, along with translations, adaptations, and mentions in poems and sermons, testify to its continuous significance for Europeans of all estates and different walks of life, from the thirteenth to the seventeenth centuries. While first compiled soon after the time of St Francis by a humble continental friar to meet the needs of his expanding religious brotherhood, by 1600 English men of letters had claimed Bartholomew as a noble compatriot and national treasure. What was it about the work that propelled it through a progression of medieval cultures and into an exalted position in the world of English letters? This reception history traces evidence for the journey of ‘Properties’ over four centuries of social, political and religious change.

Download or read book Stations on the Journey of Inquiry written by Mary Budde Ragan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection, Stations on the Journey of Inquiry, David Burrell launches a revolutionary reinterpretation of how any inquiry proceeds, boldly critiquing presumptuous theories of knowledge, language, and ethics. While his later publications, Analogy and Philosophical Language (1973) and Aquinas: God and Action (1979), elucidate Aquinas's linguistic theology, these early writings show what often escapes articulation: how one comes to understanding and "takes" a judgment. Although Aquinas serves as an axial figure for Burrell's expansive corpus of scholarship spanning more than fifty years, this selection of essays presents other positions and counterpositions to whom his own philosophical theology is beholden: Plato, Aristotle, Cajetan, Kant, Peirce, Moore, Wittgenstein, Sellars, Weiss, Ross, McInerny, and Lonergan. With renewed interest in philosophy of language by postmodern thinkers as well as in the wake of Mulhall's Stanton Lectures on Wittgenstein and "Grammatical Thomism," the publication of these formative writings proves timely for the academy at large. Burrell invites us to reconsider not only the way in which we conduct an inquiry, but what it is we take language to be and how we take responsibility for what we say.

Book excerpt: This collection of poems is inspiring and heartwarming. Written with uncanny simplicity, Dr. Mbongo tackles profound and complex themes that have dogged humankind throughout its existence. Readers are compelled into invoking their own experiences on this journey. A must read. CHRISTIAN AKALE, Ph.D. Dr. Mbongo's poems evoke spontaneous eloquence. Like Robert Frost, vivid, graphic and persuasive; and Maya Angelou, articulate, symbolic and meaningful. JERRY DOMATOB, Ph.D. In The Journey, the author uses a poetic lens to look at the paths all mortals use to journey to hell or to eternity. The simplicity in his presentation and articulation unveil the perplexing questions that all humans must one day answer as they forge through this undulating experience, here called The Journey. The poet affirms that there is one true God, all of whose attributes no human can fully understand. In the poem entitled "Two ways," he shows how humans may choose to exercise their freedom as they lead their lives: "Two ways to touch every heart...two to remember my yesterday; To be angry, unforgiving, and defiant...to be understanding, merciful and a blessing." GAHLIA GWANGWA'A, Ph.D. With distinct honor and pleasure, I recommend Dr. Mbongo's poetry. This humble parishioner and servant of God writes from a heart filled with the Holy Ghost, and it shows.
