Download or read book Chartreuse written by Joseph Roccasalvo and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-02-06 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically founded on a sixteenth century alchemist ́s elixir of long life (and the basis for the French liqueur), CHARTREUSE is a story of supernatural transformation; of the elixir ́s ingredients on which a Pope ́s life rests; of a young man ́s destiny and the chain of world events that lead to his final, wrenching choice. The central character, Blaise, is summoned to Switzerland once he learns he has inherited a parchment containing the recipe for nothing less than the elixir of life. He ́s directed to a distiller in the French countryside—a Carthusian monk at La Grande Chartreuse—for he alone knows how "to execute the formula to the greater glory of God and humanity." At the same time, someone wants the Pope dead and has infected him with a fatal disease. So the race is on: to save the Pope; to see which woman will accompany Blaise during his travails—his current lover, or a flame from his past; to discover if the culprit can keep the elixir from reaching the Vatican. CHARTREUSE is fast-paced without being frantic. And yet, in the drawing power of the plot ́s twists and turns, so much more than a plot goes on: a romance, a thriller, a source book of homeopathy, miraculous events, a spiritual journey. It ́s a search for a cure; a search for a moral code; a search for identity. With CHARTREUSE, Joseph Roccasalvo has written a novel about the sacred and the profane—a contemporary symbol of our 21st century lives.

Book Synopsis "Agency, Visuality and Society at the Chartreuse de Champmol " by : SherryC.M. Lindquist
Download or read book "Agency, Visuality and Society at the Chartreuse de Champmol " written by SherryC.M. Lindquist and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grounded in archival sources, this interdisciplinary study explores the profound historical significance of the mausoleum of the Valois Dukes of Burgundy - the Chartreuse de Champmol. Although the monument is well known as the site of pivotal works of art by Claus Sluter, Melchior Broederlam, Jean de Beaumetz and others, until now art historians have not considered how these works functioned at the center of a complex social matrix. Sherry Lindquist here considers the sacred subjects of the various sculptures and paintings not merely as devotional tools or theological statements, but as profoundly influential social instruments that negotiated complex interactions of power. Lindquist's sophisticated discussion coordinates analysis of primary sources with the most up-to-date scholarship in the field of art history, not only with respect to late medieval Burgundian art, but also to more theoretical questions pertaining to reception.

They explicitly avoid the present-day trend of filling children's books with endless colored illustrations and one-page sentences that entertain a child, but fail to teach them to read. It is also the author's hope that his stories will contain enough intrigue to encourage parent's to return to the time-honored tradition of reading to their children, especially at bedtime.

Download or read book Chartreuse written by Michael Turback and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-12 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long, long ago, in the foothills of the Chartreuse Mountains of France, a group of monks set out to lead lives of contemplation and solitude. Far removed from contact with the outside world, they built a monastery and established the Order of the Carthusians. The monks mastered the formula for a medicinal brew of herbs, spices and flowers, promised as "an elixir for long life," selling bottles in nearby villages to support the Order. Over the years, the fame of the venerable liqueur spread far and wide, recognized in the modern era as eminently mixable, versatile, and indispensable in cocktails. This book offers a fascinating collection of 88 recipes built on a foundation of Chartreuse, from faithfully re-created pre-Prohibition drinks to inventive, artisan cocktail-inspired notions. Prepare your mind - and your palate - for enlightenment.

Book excerpt: Don’t mess with the hothead—or he might just mess with you. Slater Ibáñez is only interested in two kinds of guys: the ones he wants to punch, and the ones he sleeps with. Things get interesting when they start to overlap. A freelance investigator, Slater trolls the dark side of Los Angeles, rooting out insurance fraud, not afraid to use whatever means necessary to get things done, and not about to hold back with his fists. A queer antihero for a new age, Slater walks the line between ordinary life and the frayed fringes of society, keeping his balance with the back-channel support he gets from his idiot cop ex-boyfriend, Conrad, and regular squeeze Andy. On an insurance job, Slater’s hunt for missing beneficiary Daniel takes him from wrangling the hardscrabble grifters of Skid Row to infiltrating the sleazy pieds-à-terre and private jets of the city’s moneyed elite. Eventually the quest takes Slater to New Mexico, where he rents an old pickup and revisits his equestrian past in pursuit of a shadowy group dedicated to flying saucers. Galliform, an old quarry, pops up in the sprawling desert, and Slater has to navigate around law enforcement, not quite willing to collaborate with them but intent on not winding up in the hoosegow. Hooking up with all the wrong guys and drinking way too much, Slater gradually starts to see what’s really going on. As Galliform increases the pressure and things heat up, Slater has to decide between doing what’s right and preserving his own neck.
Book Synopsis Blue Cats and Chartreuse Kittens by : Patricia Lynne Duffy
Download or read book Blue Cats and Chartreuse Kittens written by Patricia Lynne Duffy and published by Henry Holt and Company. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine a world in which words have colors and sounds have tastes. In his autobiography, Vladimir Nabokov described this neurological phenomenon, which helped inspire David Hockney's sets for the Metropolitan Opera. Richard Feynman experienced it while formulating the quantum theory that won him a Nobel Prize. Sometimes described as a blending of perceptions, synesthesia occurs when only one of the fives senses is aroused but two respond. Journalist Patricia Lynne Duffy draws from her own struggles and breakthroughs with synesthesia to help us better understand the condition, while describing some of the major theories surrounding it. An illuminating examination of the world of synesthetes, Blue Cats and Chartreuse Kittens is a must-read for science and health buffs, as well as for artists, writers, and creative thinkers-or anyone generally intrigued by the brain, the senses, and perception.
