  • Publisher: TAN Books

This wonderful book links all the elements of her life into one intimate, flowing and absolutely enthralling story - relating details of her beautiful, holy mother; her noble and pious father; her great and generous sisters, all of whom entered the convent; plus her own story - from her infancy to her early entrance into Carmel at 15, to her death at age 24. Toward the end of her life, St. Therese came to an understanding of her own spiritual advancement, for she made several predictions that all came true: That her Story of a Soul should be published as soon as possible, that she would let fall a shower of roses on the whole world when she died, that she would assist anyone who called upon her for aid, and finally, that the whole world will love her. And it does! The Little Flower is probably the best known and loved Saint of all time. Also explains St. Therese's devotion to the Holy Face - and shows how it made her a Saint. A great gift!

The Lost Apostle

In The Lost Apostle award-winning journalist Rena Pederson investigates a little known subject in early Christian history—the life and times of the female apostle Junia. Junia was an early convert and leading missionary whose story was “lost” when her name was masculinized to Junias in later centuries. The Lost Apostle unfolds like a well-written detective story, presenting Pederson’s lively search for insight and information about a woman some say was the first female apostle.

To Alpha From Omega

Jason Salvador was found wandering in the wilderness, naked. He was diagnosed with severe retrograde amnesia and his case was assigned to Inspector Sandy Casey, a top Forensic Investigator. What Sandy did not know was that Jason was not suffering from amnesia. He had been sent on a secret mission from planet Omega to study life on Alpha. On no account was he to reveal his origins or interfere in the affairs of the inhabitants of the planet they called Earth. Alpha was just one of twenty three planets Omega had life-seeded millions of years ago and Jason’s twelve month tour of duty was to evaluate human civilization and the viability of the planet’s future. To Alpha From Omega is Jason’...

Dependency and Social Inequality in Pre-Roman Italy

In the past, most studies on Pre-Roman societies in Italy (1st millennium BCE) focused on the elites, their representation and cultural contacts. The aim of this volume is to look at dependent and marginalized social groups, which are less visible and often even difficult to define (slaves, servants, freedmen, captives, 'foreigners', athletes, women, children etc.). The methodological challenges connected to the study of such heterogeneous and scattered sources are addressed. Is the evidence representative enough for defining different forms of dependencies? Can we rely on written and pictorial sources or do they only reflect Greek and Roman views and iconographic conventions? Which social groups can't be traced in the literary and archaeological record? For the investigation of this topic, we combined historical and epigraphical studies (Greek and Roman literary sources, Etruscan inscriptions) with material culture studies (images, sanctuaries, necropoleis) including anthropological and bioarchaeological methods. These new insights open a new chapter in the study of dependency and social inequality in the societies of Pre-Roman Italy.

Turning On the Mind

In 1951, the eight o’clock nightly news reported on Jean-Paul Sartre for the first time. By the end of the twentieth century, more than 3,500 programs dealing with philosophy and its practitioners—including Bachelard, Badiou, Foucault, Lyotard, and Lévy—had aired on French television. According to Tamara Chaplin, this enduring commitment to bringing the most abstract and least visual of disciplines to the French public challenges our very assumptions about the incompatibility of elite culture and mass media. Indeed, it belies the conviction that television is inevitably anti-intellectual and the quintessential archenemy of the book. Chaplin argues that the history of the televising of...

Vicissitudes

Renee set out to be an artist, not a warrior. She’s the consort of a vampire lord, while her former best friend has become a vampire hunter. Awkward. Not even death can stop Renee from using her teleportation ability to protect her community. But her cousin Gil, who has access to their grandfather’s temporal and spatial technology, has also joined the ranks of her enemies. As Renee struggles to accept a profound change in her existence, she finds her family targeted by two separate groups of vampire hunters, as well as enemies of their own kind. Gil and his compatriots vanish by making use of a backwater in the stream of time, only to be replaced by hunters who plunge the already divided vampire enclave of Abbey Keep into chaos through abduction and murder. Meanwhile, Gil is poised to pop back into existence just when he’s not expected, bringing with him a crew of killers determined to turn Abbey Keep into a pile of radioactive rubble.
