Pestgold. El Oro de la Peste.
Bohemia a principios del siglo XV: la epidemia de peste ha terminado y los habitantes de un pequeño pueblo regresan de las cuevas donde se escondieron de la peste y sobrevivieron. Pero están en la más completa miseria, ya que nadie ha sembrado ni cosechado, y el invierno está a la vuelta de la esquina. Su noble señor en el castillo cercano también sufre de carencias. Afortunadamente, todavía tiene el tesoro que robó con otros barones ladrones antes de la plaga. Cuando va a buscar algo, descubre con horror que los cofres con oro y joyas ya no están. ¡Aquello podría costarle la cabeza! Mientras tanto, los aldeanos siguen encontrando objetos de valor en el bosque y afirman que provienen de un troll que tiene buenas intenciones con ellos.

He repeatedly told his unforgettable memory to his young children, but for his son, Avremele, the tale served as inspiration. Sea of Lights is the story of Avraham Binder, a perceptive boy who came of age in a time of strife and social chaos, but thanks to his sensitivity to beauty, noticed the loveliness of his universe and the goodness of man. Sea of Lights author, Yael Remen, takes you to the Jewish ghetto in Vilnius, Lithuania, in the opening years of the twentieth century. Avremeles devout mother expected him to be a rabbi, and his father hoped he would be...
Experimental Selves
Drawing on the generous semantic range the term enjoyed in early modern usage, Experimental Selves argues that 'person, ' as early moderns understood this concept, was an 'experimental' phenomenon--at once a given of experience and the self-conscious arena of that experience. Person so conceived was discovered to be a four-dimensional creature: a composite of mind or 'inner' personality; of the body and outward appearance; of social relationship; and of time. Through a series of case studies keyed to a wide variety of social and cultural contexts, including theatre, the early novel, the art of portraiture, pictorial experiments in vision and perception, theory of knowledge, and the new experimental science of the late-seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the book examines the manifold shapes person assumed as an expression of the social, natural, and aesthetic 'experiments' or experiences to which it found itself subjected as a function of the mere contingent fact of just having them.
