The Poems of Joseph Fletcher, M.A.
Excerpt from The Poems of Joseph Fletcher, M.A., Rector of Wilby, Suffolk: For the First Time Edited and Re-Printed, With Memorial-Introduction and Notes The present Rectory is in part a very ancient building, about a quarter of a mile from the Church - surrounded by. Lofty Scotch firs, and almost every kind of English tree.

Witnesses to the One
An exploration of Judaism's most sacred statement and world-changing idea. "Hear O Israel, the Eternal is Our God, the Eternal is One!"

Testaments of Toluca
Testaments written in their own language, Nahuatl, have been crucial for reconstructing the everyday life of the indigenous people of central Mexico after Spanish contact. Those published to date have largely been from the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. Testaments of Toluca presents a large body of Nahuatl wills (98) from 1652 to 1783 from an important valley not much studied, thus greatly enlarging our perspective on the evolution of indigenous society and culture in central Mexico. Each testament is transcribed, translated, and accompanied by a commentary on the testator's situation and on interesting terminology. A substantial introductory study fully analyzes the testamentary genre as seen in this corpus (a first) and summarizes the content of the documents in realms such as gender, kinship, household, and land. Wills are very human documents, and the apparatus draws out this aspect, telling us much of local indigenous life in central Mexico in the third century after Spanish contact, so that the book is of potential interest to a broad spectrum of readers.
