Martie 1938. Fizicianul italian Ettore Majorana dispare in largul Siciliei si, odata cu el, proiectul secret la care lucra de ani de zile. Toamna anului 1955. Ca prin minune, insemnarile fizicianului disparut ies la iveala si ii dau parintelui Ernetti o idee nebuneasca: sa construiasca o masinarie care sa surprinda imagini din trecut. Un cronovizor. La ordinul Papei Pius al XII-lea, preotul se intoarce cu doua mii de ani in trecut, cu un obiectiv simplu: sa dovedeasca existenta lui Hristos. Astfel incepe o cursa nebuneasca intre Vatican, CIA, KGB si Mossad - caci ceea ce va descoperi parintele Ernetti, in plin Razboi Rece, ar putea tulbura insasi ordinea mondiala. Construit ca un serial de t...
This book contains eleven carefully selected papers, all discussing negative constructions in English. The aim of this volume is to bring together empirical research into the development of English negation and analyses of syntactic variations in Present-day English negation. The first part "Aspects of Negation in the History of English" includes six contributions, that focus on the usages of the negative adverbs ne and not, the decline of negative concord, and the development of the auxiliary do in negation. Most of the themes discussed here are then linked to the second part "Aspects of Negation in Present-day English". Especially, the issue of negative concord is repeatedly explored by three of the five papers in this part, one related to British English dialects in general, another to Tyneside English, and the other to African American Vernacular English. This book uniquely highlights the importance of continuity from Old English to Present-day English, while, in its introduction, it provides a useful detailed survey of previous studies on English negation.
The volume The Spectacle of the Body in Late Medieval England represents a study on the human body representation in medieval England by approaching the concept of the spectacle as a space of manifestation. The author clarifies the ways of understanding the body as a physical and metaphorical reality, but also the medieval conceptualization of violence. On top of that, the author is making an investigation on the violent character of spectacles' representation in pursuit of picturing this subject more clearly and more relevant. The approach of the volume is dominantly Christian reviewing the representations of the body through outstanding figures of Christianity (crucifixion of Jesus Christ, body of Virgin Mary).
In the present volume, I focus on a few aspects of the role played in your life by applied philosophy, philosophical practices, philosophical counseling and therapy. For this purpose, I am calling on the experience of thinkers devoted to philosophy and philosophical practice such as Lou Marinoff, Emmy van Deurzen, Aurel Codoban and others, as I believe that by presenting their ideas we can support understanding the importance of philosophical counseling in a communication-shaped world.
