Forever Faithful
This is the third in a series of genealogical studies of German families that emigrated to the Kingdom of Hungary in the early 18th century and settled in Somogy County. Kötcse is the oldest of the three major German Lutheran parishes that evolved and numerous families from Kötcse were instrumental in the establishment of the other two. The family histories of those who settled in the parish of Somogydöröcske are included in the volume: Dörnberg: In the Shadow of the Josefsberg; and those from the parish of Ecsény in From Toleration to Expulsion that both preceded this publication. In addition to the genealogical information the author provides the historical context and other information vital to an understanding of the lifestyle, traditions and ultimate destiny of their sojourn in Hungary and beyond.
Digressions and the Human Imagination
Digressions and the Human Imagination makes a significant contribution to our anthropological knowledge about human creativity. The creative force of the human imagination is widely considered as a key ingredient in understanding how social and cultural transformations occur. And yet, what we know about the nature of creative processes is surprisingly limited. Taking their cue from literary studies, the contributors to this volume explore digression as human creativity’s main impulse. They offer a series of experimental explorations of digression in different arenas of social life – literature, conversations, myths, humour, art, and wayfinding. In their examination of the relationship be...
From Toleration to Expulsion
On April 6, 1948, a significant portion of the population of the village of Ecsny in Somogy County, Hungary, was expelled from their homeland. This was the result of Protocol XIII of the Potsdam Declaration of 1945 calling for the orderly and humane transfer of German populations now living in Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. The families involved were descendants of German settlers who began to arrive in what would become the village of Ecsny as early as 1754. They formed an Evangelical Lutheran congregation at the outset that would survive as an underground movement until the Edict of Toleration promulgated by the Emperor Joseph II of Austria in 1782. These two governmental actions tak...

A greatly expanded supplements package now accompanies the text.
Field Guide to Now
A Field Guide To Now is a reference manual for creating an extraordinary life out of ordinary moments. This collection of illustrated essays and field notes explores the tenuous line between survival and thriving; between wanderlust and making a home; between being and becoming; and about how these things inevitably converge in the scarce, haphazard, simple moments of right now. It is both an invitation to create whatever opportunity your heart yearns for, and proof that it is possible. Reinvent the way you engage with the moment and explore the texture of your present tense. Imagine if you could look for the present moment in a field guide, the way you might look up the name of a tree you s...
Cold Pizza for Breakfast
As one of the top folk musicians in the country, Christine Lavin has seen it all--and she still loves the music and the life she feels privileged to lead. Published in honor of her twenty-fifth anniversary as a full-time, independent touring musician, Cold Pizza for Breakfast: A Mem-wha? is a memoir of road stories and adventures across the United States, Canada, and Australia. ''I've changed a few names to spare hurt feelings,'' Christine notes, ''but all these stories are true. Hey, I have eight brothers and sisters--you think they'd let me make things up?'' Cold Pizza for Breakfast is rich with details from two-plus decades of songwriting and performing. The memoir begins with the hysteri...
Duszpasterstwo szkolne dla wszystkich!
W Polsce, od lat 90, daje się zaobserwować szybkie przemiany w obrębie państwa, społeczeństwa i Kościoła, wyraźnie uwidaczniaj ące potrzebę wzbogacenia polskiego systemu oświaty o programy duszpasterstwa szkolnego. Działalność pastoralna na rzecz szkół wymaga nie tylko określenia ram teoretycznych, ale także silnego zakotwiczenia instytucjonalnego. Sprawdzone koncepcje "Schulpastoral" w Niemczech mog ą dostarczyć w tym zakresie cennych sugestii i stać się źródłem inspiracji. Głównym zadaniem niniejszej pracy jest zatem stworzenie praktycznej, sytuacyjnej i zorientowanej na przyszłość koncepcji duszpasterstwa szkolnego dla Kościoła w Polsce, na przykładzie Diecezji Łomżyńskiej. Nie chodzi tutaj jednak o konstruowanie takiej wizji duszpasterstwa szkolnego, która - w obliczu nasilaj ących się procesów sabnięcia więzi między (modymi) ludźmi a instytucjonalnym Kościoem - byaby czymś w rodzaju "chrystianizacji" środowiska szkolnego za pomoc ą nowych metod, ale o przedstawienie projektu dziaalności duszpasterskiej na rzecz humanizacji szkó.
