Book excerpt: Based on nearly four years of research among semi-cloistered Christian monastics and a dispersed network of non-monastic Christian contemplatives around the United States, The Monk's Cell shows how religious practitioners in both settings combined social action and intentional living with intellectual study and intensive contemplative practices in an effort to modify their ways of knowing, sensing, and experiencing the world.

Download or read book A Decade of Italian Women written by Thomas Adolphus Trollope and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features the biographical accounts of ten women selected by the author not so much with any intention of bringing together the best, greatest, or most admirable, nor even the most remarkable women Italy has produced, as with a view of securing the greatest amount of variety, in point of social position and character. Each figure of the small gallery was intended to illustrate a distinct phase of Italian social life and civilization: the canonized Saint, that most extraordinary product of the "ages of faith," highly interesting as a social, and perhaps more so still as a psychological phenomenon; the feudal Châtelaine, one of the most remarkable results of the feudal system, and affording a suggestive study of woman in man's place; the high-born and highly-educated Princess of a somewhat less rude day, whose inmost spiritual nature was so profoundly and injuriously modified by her social position; the brilliant literary denizen of "La Bohème", etc. All these were curiously distinct manifestations of womanhood, and if any measure of success has been attained in the endeavor to represent them duly surrounded by the social environment which produced them, while they helped to fashion it, some contribution will have been made to a right understanding of woman's nature, and of the true road towards her more completely satisfactory social development.

His writing style is engaging, with a perfect balance of description and analysis that keeps the reader hooked until the very last page.

His personal experiences living among the Italian people shine through in the authenticity of his portrayal of Italian women. For readers interested in Italian history, gender studies, or 19th-century literature, 'A Decade of Italian Women' is a must-read.

Book excerpt: "When Ann Stilwell arrives in New York City, she expects to spend her summer working as a curatorial associate at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Instead she finds herself assigned to The Cloisters, a gothic museum and garden renowned for its medieval art collection and its group of enigmatic researchers studying the history of divination. Desperate to escape her painful past, Ann is happy to indulge the researchers' more outlandish theories about the history of fortune telling. But what begins as academic curiosity quickly turns into obsession when Ann discovers a hidden 15th-century deck of tarot cards that might hold the key to predicting the future. As the dangerous game of power, seduction, and ambition at The Cloisters turns deadly, Ann becomes locked in a race for answers as the line between the arcane and the modern blurs."--Provided by publisher.

Book excerpt: Now with a new afterword by Pope emeritus Benedict XVI! In a time when technology penetrates our lives in so many ways and materialism exerts such a powerful influence over us, Cardinal Robert Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence. The modern world generates so much noise, he says, that seeking moments of silence has become both harder and more necessary than ever before. Silence is the indispensable doorway to the divine, explains the cardinal in this profound conversation with Nicolas Diat. Within the hushed and hallowed walls of the La Grande Chartreux, the famous Carthusian monastery in the French Alps, Cardinal Sarah addresses the following questions: Can those who do not know silence ever attain truth, beauty, or love? Do not wisdom, artistic vision, and devotion spring from silence, where the voice of God is heard in the depths of the human heart? After the international success of God or Nothing, Cardinal Sarah seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance. "Silence is more important than any other human work," he says, "for it expresses God. The true revolution comes from silence; it leads us toward God and others so as to place ourselves humbly and generously at their service."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The heavenly peace of the monastery of Santa Caterina is under threat: construction work in the old walls is making quiet comtemplation almost impossible. There’s something a little peculiar about the new nun, Sister Donna, too. Before Sister Isabella can get to the heart of Sister Donna’s oddities, she’s found dead in the cloisters. The nuns are terrified and fear for their lives. Can Sister Isabella and Carabiniere Matteo find the kill before another disaster...? But there are bigger fish to fry than Donna's odd behaviour. The convent is undergoing renovations and Isabella has to supervise them. And as if that wasn’t enough, an unexpected guest has arrived - Gina Bellucci. Is she really seeking a getaway of peace and contemplation or is there more to her than meets the eye? Something is definitely afoot... But before Sister Isabella can get to the bottom of it, there's a murder Monastery, Murder and Dolce Vita - a crime series like a holiday under the Italian sun. Fans of Richard Osman's 'Thursday Murder Club' will love this humorous cosy crime read. Benvenuto a Santa Caterina! This picturesque village in the heart of Tuscany is where Sister Isabella lives and works. But out of the blue, she suddenly finds herself investigating a murder case! From then on, this curious nun makes it her life's work to solve the crimes, large and small, that are committed in the village. Carabiniere Matteo is grateful for this heavenly help, because after all, as Santa Caterina's only policeman, he has his hands full... Valentina Morelli is a bestelling German author. With the Sister Isabella Series, she pays homage to her spiritual homeland and captures the unique feel of life in Tuscany. For her, murder mysteries are the true way of telling human stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates an almost unknown musical culture: that of cloistered nuns in one of the major cities of early modern Europe. These women were the most famous musicians of Milan, and the music composed for them opens up a hitherto unstudied musical repertory, which allows insight into the symbolic world of the city. Even more importantly, the music actually composed by four such nuns, Claudia Scossa, Claudia Rusca, Chiara Margarita Cozzollani, and Rosa Giacinta Badalla - reveals the musical expression of women's devotional life. The two centuries' worth of battles over nuns' singing of polyphony, studies here for the first time on the basis of massive archival documentation, also suggest that the implementation of reform in the major centre of post-Tridentine Catholic renewal was far more varied; incomplete, subject to local political pressure and individual interpretation, and short-lived than any religious historian has ever suggested. Other factors that marked nuns' musical lives and creative output - liturgical traditions of the religious orders, the problems of performance practice attendant upon all-female singing ensembles - are here addressed for the first time in the musicological literature.
