Beneath the Moonlight Pale
Old sins cast long shadows… In the late Victorian era, steel magnate Solomon Stanford is a domineering tyrant whose will is as formidable as the metal he creates. He is a hard, cruel man known for his business prowess and feared more than respected. His daughter, Evelyn Stanford, is a kind, intelligent woman using her father’s wealth to create a village school to help the less fortunate children. When her father engages brash young solicitor Rafe Griffin as his general counsel, Evelyn detests the handsome man on the spot. Rafe is too much like her father, ruthlessly determined to have his way. However, Rafe is taken with the young beauty and finds himself drawn to her. But nothing is as it seems. As secrets from the past begin to surface, Evelyn is threatened with the knowledge that her father did something horrific. A shocking murder sets in motion a string of events, and a shadowy figure emerges set on enacting a vengeful plan. Rafe is concerned that Evelyn is the final target, and the list of suspects grows. But as the past encroaches on the present, Rafe vows to protect Evelyn at all costs and identify the killer who is hell-bent on completing their cycle of revenge.
The Persuasive Appeal of the Chronicler
Drawing on ancient rhetorical principles, this work brings a novel approach to the exploration of the literary dynamics of the books of Chronicles. Contrary to those who have viewed the Chronicler as ploddy and dull, Duke maintains that the Chronicler understood the historiographical demands of his day. Utilizing traditions, genealogical material, speeches of authoritative characters and paradigmatic portrayal of events and characters, and moving from a cautious inductive presentation of his thesis to a more propositional form of argumentation, the Chronicler retold the story of Israel with skill and artistry.
Out of the Cloister: Scholastic Exegesis of the Song of Songs, 1100-1250
The Song of Songs was one of the most frequently interpreted biblical books of the Middle Ages. Most scholarly studies concentrate on monastic interpretations of the text, which tend to be contemplative in nature. In Out of the Cloister, Suzanne LaVere reveals a particularly scholastic strain of Song of Songs exegesis, in which cathedral school masters and mendicants in and around 12th and 13th-century Paris read the text as Christ exhorting the Church and clergy to lead an active life of preaching, instruction, conversion, and reform. This new interpretation of the Song of Songs both reflected and influenced an era of far-reaching Church reform and offered a program for secular clergy to combat heresy and apathy among the laity.
