Fate seems to be pointing a finger at him when a priest topples to his death—from a statue of none other than Tutankhamun himself.

Using her scholarship to penetrate the inner precincts of court and temple, she has written a complex and exciting narrative that reflects the twisted machinations of politicians—royal and otherwise.” —The New York Times Book Review

Between Lord Meren and the truth lie dangerous mysteries--in the city's back alleys and in the bosom of his own noble family. . . .

This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume originates as a continuation of the previous volume in the CEMP series (1.1) and aims at furthering scholarly interest in the nature and function of theatrical paradox in early modern plays, considering how classical paradoxical culture was received in Renaissance England. The book is articulated into three sections: the first, “Paradoxical Culture and Drama”, is devoted to an investigation of classical definitions of paradox and the dramatic uses of paradox in ancient Greek drama; the second, “Paradoxes in/of Elizabethan and Jacobean Drama” looks at the functions and uses of paradox in the play-texts of Shakespeare and his contemporaries; finally, the essays in “Paradoxes in Drama and the Digital” examine how the Digital Humanities can enrich our knowledge of paradoxes in classical and early modern drama.

Book Synopsis The Murder of William of Norwich by : E. M. Rose
Download or read book The Murder of William of Norwich written by E. M. Rose and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2015 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title examines the ritual murder accusation (or blood libel), one of the most heinous charges against the Jews in the history of medieval antisemitism. It traces the origins to the circumstances surrounding the death of William of Norwich in 1144 and the text of the 'Life and Passion' composed by the monk Thomas of Monmouth in 1150, in the period immediately following the English civil war, the Anarchy under King Stephen, and the Second Crusade. The charge arose as the result of a trial of an indebted knight, Simon de Novers, for killing his Jewish banker Deulesalt.
Book Synopsis THE TESTIMONY OF JOHN: 1907 Biblical Study Notes on the Gospel of John by : George N.H. Peters
Download or read book THE TESTIMONY OF JOHN: 1907 Biblical Study Notes on the Gospel of John written by George N.H. Peters and published by BookLocker.com, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From cover to cover, conception to completion this book is about Jesus. It addresses and answers the fundamental question of His identity, and mission. The book never waivers from this original purpose and structure. Who better to inform us of Jesus than John, "the discipline whom Jesus loved," the person to whom Jesus often confided in and to whom He ultimately entrusted with His own future "Revelation?" And who better to expose these truths than Mr. George N.H. Peters, gifted Bible teacher and faithful steward of the Word of God throughout his lifetime. Composed in the form of study notes, the author directs attention away from modern mystical interpretations of this Gospel towards what John intended to accomplish, i.e. confront the reader with the predicted Messiah, Jesus, and in so doing provide reasons to "believe" and through believing find the very promise of eternal life. John calls this work his "testimony," like a witness pleading before a jury of his peers he lays out a selection of evidence. He claims that he could easily have written volumes but these "things" he wrote so that the reader might believe. The beauty of this book lies in the evidence John chooses to put forth, the impact of the book (slightly over 100 years old) stems from the ability of Mr. Peters to point out these things and then allow the testimony to speak for itself. Over the last century many able men and women have undertaken to expound the Gospel of John. The reader will not find a more plainly written account than what Mr Peters penned during the last years of his life.
