Book Synopsis Casa de Cuerva by : Ethan Applegarth
Download or read book Casa de Cuerva written by Ethan Applegarth and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009-05-13 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enter California's remote Santa Rosa range-a region few know or travel. It is a country of cragged peaks, snag-strewn flats and piled bones. It is tended by the solitary crow. These poems were written over one year. In the midst of even the hunt feel compassion for all creatures; find sense in the beautiful injustice of love and death. Treat this as a companion for a lonely desert campfire. These meditations convey the desolate tone of a struck bell stone. They call forth the wizened ghosts that haunt ancestral cactus fields. Curl in the ferns after the rains have fled and listen for the voices that ride the wind. This ancient realm bears wisdom, character and speaks through deathly clarity. Let us explore the concept of the native; that all godly places are charged with foreign power. Transcend fragile understanding and enter the House of the Crow.
Book Synopsis Maria of Austria, Holy Roman Empress (1528-1603) by : Rubén González Cuerva
Download or read book Maria of Austria, Holy Roman Empress (1528-1603) written by Rubén González Cuerva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-10-31 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maria of Austria was one of the longest surviving Renaissance Empresses but until now has received little attention by biographers. This book explores her life, actions, and management of domestic affairs, which became a feared example of how an Empress could control alternative spheres of power. The volume traces the path of a Castilian orphan infanta, raised among her mother’s Portuguese ladies-in-waiting and who spent thirty years of marriage between the imperial courts of Prague and Vienna. Empress Maria encapsulates the complex dynastic functioning of the Habsburgs: devotedly married to her cousin Maximilian II, Maria had constant communication with her father Charles V and her brother Philip II while preserving her Spanish background. Her unique intertwining of roles and positions allows a fresh approach to female agency and the discussion of current issues: the rules of dynastic entente, the negotiation of discreet political roles for royal women, the reassessment of informal diplomacy, and the creation of dynastic networks parallel to the embassies. With chronological chapters discussing Empress Maria’s roles such as infanta, regent, Empress, and a widow, this volume is the perfect resource for scholars and students interested in the history of gender, court culture, and early modern Central Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past twenty years, archaeological research in Spain and Portugal has undergone profound changes in theoretical orientation, changes that parallel the political and social transformations in those countries over the past generation. These Proceedings of the First International Conference in America on Iberian Archaeology demonstrate the increasingly strong implantation of processualist approaches and their useful integration with historicist orientations. Contributions ranging from the Neolithic to the Iron Age provide a representative sample of the current state of archaeological research in Iberia.
Book Synopsis K.C. of a Thousand Trails by : Gay Paris Pratt
Download or read book K.C. of a Thousand Trails written by Gay Paris Pratt and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-03-29 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how one person could have crossed paths with you a convenient time in your life? Some people plan it out, methodically, from childhood. Others were born to serve a mission on earth from God that endures throughout their entire lifetime. My amazing cat, K.C., was one of these beings... Have you ever considered that God’s animal beings have missions on earth, too? This is a true story of one such sentient being—in a cat suit—who was assigned by the angels to pounced upon an unsuspecting woman’s life that was in shambles in a time when internet and smartphones did not exist. This cat helped save her from choosing death, and then devoted his entire life to transforming her into a better human being. This cat had a mission assigned from God. The mission was—me! This story is not to convince you, but rather to enlighten you as to the possibilities of the divine—along with the billions of internet cat and pet videos of people who are trying to share the good news of their intelligence: “animals have souls!” This account is to serve as a comfort to anyone who has lost someone—be it your pet companion or human relation—to a serious illness. No one escapes the pain of heartbreak...but to endure such an obstacle course of anguish brings a light of lasting peace that will anchor your heart with joy that exists past this lifetime—being reunited again with beloved pets in the hereafter... It’s called love.

Book Synopsis Confessional Diplomacy in Early Modern Europe by : Roberta Anderson
Download or read book Confessional Diplomacy in Early Modern Europe written by Roberta Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-14 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confessional Diplomacy in Early Modern Europe examines the role of religion in early modern European diplomacy. In the period following the Reformations, Europe became divided: all over the continent, princes and their peoples split over theological, liturgical, and spiritual matters. At the same time, diplomacy rose as a means of communication and policy, and all powers established long- or short-term embassies and sent envoys to other courts and capitals. The book addresses three critical areas where questions of religion or confession played a role: papal diplomacy, priests and other clerics as diplomatic agents, and religion as a question for diplomatic debate, especially concerning embassy chapels.
Book Synopsis RíOs de Amor y Cuentos Contados Por niñOs... y No Tan niñOs, Ellos TambiéN Tienen Algo Que Contar by : Lourdes Karely Pérez Vargas

This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uno de los grandes problemas de la infinidad que existe, referente a la escasa cultura de la lectura en México es la poca promoción de actividades de sensibilización a la lectura. Me refiero desde luego a las instituciones oficiales que por antonomasia le corresponde realizar todo lo referente a esta área. Por lo mencionado a priori, al no existir espacios o escaparates donde los niños y jóvenes puedan dar a conocer su gran creatividad e imaginación, simple y sencillamente la sociedad deja de evolucionar para quedar en el oscurantismo, como en el Medioevo. En esa patética pasividad, a los niños se les coarta la posibilidad de seguir desarrollando a su máxima capacidad su creatividad. Una vez analizado profundamente durante muchos años y como docente de la Primaria "Josefa Ortiz de Domínguez", de Palenque, Chiapas; México; vi que existía la necesidad imperiosa de hacer realidad todas las actividades del gran proyecto cultural visionario, pero cultura en el amplio sentido de la palabra; que inicié hace aproximadamente veinte años, y precisamente la publicación de la presente obra que contiene las producciones literarias de alumnos de primaria y secundaria, solo es uno de los elementos cristalizados del proyecto. Pero enfatizo algo, no solo es suficiente realizar todo lo mencionado a priori, sino debe existir la necesidad imperiosa de ser filántropo para realizar todo aquello que para la gran mayoría de los entes lo tienen concebido como imposible, es decir; su chip ya se lo programaron para que piensen y actúen como tal. Es nuestra responsabilidad evitar a toda costa que esto le ocurra a las nuevas generaciones.

Book Synopsis A Europe of Courts, a Europe of Factions by : Ruben Gonzalez Cuerva
Download or read book A Europe of Courts, a Europe of Factions written by Ruben Gonzalez Cuerva and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Europe of Courts, a Europe of Factions the contributors offer an analysis of the political groups of the most representative European courts of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Transcending individual cases, this collection presents the first comparative overview of the phenomenon of court factionalism. Through original research and a critical approach, González Cuerva and Koller explore in depth the emergence, coexistence and image of court factions. This contribution to the debate on the nature of early modern policy-making is enriched with a European-wide focus, which allows comparison of the circumstantial and micropolitical factors accounting for the spread of factions and the conditions in which they functioned. It also allows partisan sources to be examined with the necessary caution. Contributors are Stefano Andretta, Janet Dickinson, Luc Duerloo, Pavel Marek, José Martínez Millán, Toby Osborne, David Potter, Jonathan Spangler, Evrim Türkçelik, and Maria Antonietta Visceglia.

Book Synopsis Cosmopolitan Baroque by : Bianca M. Lindorfer
Download or read book Cosmopolitan Baroque written by Bianca M. Lindorfer and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the cultural relations between the Spanish and Austrian Habsburg monarchies in the seventeenth century and explores the central role of transnational aristocratic networks in cultural transfer processes between Spain and Central Europe. It tells the story of Central European aristocrats who embraced new foreign fashions, commodities, and practices to demonstrate their wealth and superior social position, thereby contributing significantly to the emergence of a cosmopolitan aristocratic Baroque culture. It shows that a new type of aristocrat emerged during this period: the cultured and educated aristocratic connoisseur, who knew how to use cultural imports and practices for his own strategic ends. However, the book also shows that not everyone was equally enthusiastic about the growing cultural imports, but that the boundaries between acceptance and rejection were often fluid. Covering a wide range of topics that span from early modern luxury consumption and food culture to collecting painting and the emergence of early modern aristocratic libraries, the book will appeal to a broad academic audience, including social and cultural historians, art historians, and cultural anthropologists alike. With its transnational scope, the book will be relevant to scholars interested in exploring the cosmopolitan nature of the early modern aristocracy also beyond the Austrian Habsburg monarchy.
