»Firman«
Som en enda organism är den nästan, firman. Eller företaget. Så har det alltid varit när Mats varit VD. Eller, i alla fall fram tills amerikanerna köper upp allt. Tills tyska managementkonsulter hyrs in och börjar ändra på saker som inte behöver ändras. Tills hela omorganisationen leder till omfattande massuppsägningar. Tills det bjuds på haschtårta under en teambuildingaktivitet... Lätt blir det inte när de inbitna och stolta tjänstemännen på firman ställs emot okända auktoriteter, stora förändringar och en alltmer absurd arbetsmiljö. Firmans blodomlopp fylls av emotionella och sköra medarbetare, och snart börjar slagen och sparkarna veva i luften. En stegtävling spårar ur, en kaffeautomat blir mördad och säkerhetsvakter kallas in. Var ska detta sluta egentligen? »Firman« är en satirisk roman med hög igenkänningsfaktor och många möjligheter till skratt och reflektion.
The Consumption of Justice
In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, the ideas and practices of justice in Europe underwent significant change as procedures were transformed and criminal and civil caseloads grew apace. Drawing on the rich judicial records of Marseille from the years 1264 to 1423, especially records of civil litigation, this book approaches the courts of law from the perspective of the users of the courts (the consumers of justice) and explains why men and women chose to invest resources in the law. Smail shows that the courts were quickly adopted as a public stage on which litigants could take revenge on their enemies. Even as the new legal system served the interest of royal or communal authority, it also provided the consumers of justice with a way to broadcast their hatreds and social sanctions to a wider audience and negotiate their own community standing in the process. The emotions that had driven bloodfeuds and other forms of customary vengeance thus never went away, and instead were fully incorporated into the new procedures.
St Symeon the New Theologian and Orthodox Tradition
This book is a study of the mystical nature of tradition, and the traditional nature of mysticism, and of St Symeon as both a highly personal and very traditional ecclesiastical writer. The teachings of St Symeon (late tenth to early eleventh century) created much controversy in Byzantium and even led to a short-lived exile to Asia Minor. For the first time in modern scholarship St Symeon's attitude to Scripture and to church worship, his relations with his spiritual father, Symeon the Studite, and the Studite tradition in general are examined. Separate chapters are dedicated to Symeon's cycle of daily reading, to his attitude to hagiographical literature, to his trinitarian theology, ecclesiology, anthropology, and mysticism. Special attention is also paid to the links between Symeon and preceeding authors such as Gregory Nazianzen. In this book Dr Alfeyev aims to redress the balance existing in the modern scholarly approach to Symeon and, more generally, to the Byzantine mystical tradition. By examining Symeon from within the tradition to which both he and the author belong Dr Alfeyev breaks new ground in original research.
