The Mother's Truth
The Mother Goddess is the ultimate Matriarch. She knows you very well, even if you do not know her. She is the one taking good care of you always. Why did the Boer Nation lose its two independent states in 1902? How did this happen and who should be blamed? Satan used the name Jesus to draw all prayers to himself, thereby abusing our worship of Jesus. This is all upside down and hidden right in front of our faces, where we don’t even see it. This is why the Goddess planned for tribulations to take place soon, so humanity can get our chance to fulfill our destiny. Otherwise, Satan/Lucifer and his friends will never stop trouble making. Now is our only time to turn things right and grow into being multidimensional again, so there can be no more lying to us. We Boers want our two Republics returned to us right now, where we can live freely and govern ourselves. Thanks to the Goddess, who will make all this happen as prophesized. Satan and his friends will have no chance, because the Goddess is on our side.

2005
Annually published since 1930, the International Bibliography of Historical Sciences (IBOHS) is an international bibliography of the most important historical monographs and periodical articles published throughout the world, which deal with history from the earliest to the most recent times. The IBOHS is thus currently the only continuous bibliography of its kind covering such a broad period of time, spectrum of subjects and geographical range. The works are arranged systematically according to period, region or historical discipline, and alphabetically according to authors names or, in the case of anonymous works, by the characteristic main title word. The bibliography contains a geographical index and indexes of persons and authors.
Winters in the World
Interweaving literature, history, and religion, an exquisite meditation on the turning of the seasons in medieval England—now in paperback. Winters in the World is a beautifully observed journey through the cycle of the year in Anglo-Saxon England, exploring the festivals, customs, and traditions linked to the different seasons. Drawing on a wide variety of source material, including poetry, histories, and religious literature, Eleanor Parker investigates how Anglo-Saxons felt about the annual passing of the seasons and the profound relationship they saw between human life and the rhythms of nature. Many of the festivals celebrated in the United Kingdom today have their roots in the Anglo-Saxon period, and this book traces their surprising history while unearthing traditions now long forgotten. It celebrates some of the finest treasures of medieval literature and provides an imaginative connection to the Anglo-Saxon world.
Creating and Sharing Legal Knowledge in the Twelfth Century
The Decretum Gratiani is the cornerstone of medieval canon law, and the manuscript St Gallen, Stiftsbibliothek, 673 an essential witness to its evolution. The studies in this volume focus on that manuscript, providing critical insights into its genesis, linguistic features, and use of Roman Law, while evaluating its attraction to medieval readers and modern scholars. Together, these studies offer a fascinating view on the evolution of the Decretum Gratiani, as well as granting new insights on the complex dynamics and processes by which legal knowledge was first created and then transferred in medieval jurisprudence. Contributors are Enrique de León, Stephan Dusil, Melodie H. Eichbauer, Atria A. Larson, Titus Lenherr, Philipp Lenz, Kenneth Pennington, Andreas Thier, José Miguel Viejo-Ximénez, John C. Wei, and Anders Winroth.
