The Love Songs of Sappho - Sappho - Bog - Prometheus Books - Plusbog.dk

The Love Songs of Sappho - Sappho - Bog - Prometheus Books - Plusbog.dk

Called the "Tenth Muse" by the ancients, Greece''s greatest female lyric poet Sappho (ca. 610-580 b.c.e.) spent the majority of her life on the famed island of Lesbos. Passionate and breathtaking, Sappho''s poems survive only in fragments following religious conspiracies to silence her. Sappho penned immortal verse on the intense power of the female libido; on the themes of romance, love, yearning, heartbreak, and personal relationships with women. This work retains the standard numerical order of the fragments and has been arranged in six sections. Distinguished poet and lecturer Paul Roche''s translation of The Love Songs of Sappho is enhanced with his brilliant essay, "Portrait of Sappho," as well as a lucid historical introduction by celebrated feminist and classicist Page duBois.

Stothert & Pitt: Cranemakers to the World - Stuart Burroughs - Bog - The History Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Stothert & Pitt: Cranemakers to the World - Stuart Burroughs - Bog - The History Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

When Stothert & Pitt announced, in January 1989, the closure of its engineering works, 580 local people lost their jobs and the city of Bath lost its single largest manufacturer. For over 250 years the heavy engineering and metalworking business had employed local people (over 2,000 in 1945) and supplied a wide variety of products from bedsteads to boilers and cement mixers to cranes. Today, when Bath is renowned for an ''industry-free'' elegance, refined and displayed for tourists, this opportunity to remind us that heavy industry has played its part in the city''s evolution could not be more timely. In 1980 the director of the Science Museum claimed that the work of Stothert & Pitt, as a supplier of heavy engineering across the world, was Bath''s greatest contribution to world history. This apparently surprising remark reveals an acknowledgement of the company''s significance, locally, nationally and internationally.

In the Stillness Waiting - Nicholas Worssam - Bog - Canterbury Press Norwich - Plusbog.dk

In the Stillness Waiting - Nicholas Worssam - Bog - Canterbury Press Norwich - Plusbog.dk

Many are familiar with the Orthodox ‘Jesus prayer’, but there is much more to discover about its tradition of contemplation as a grounding both for the interior spiritual life, and for compassionate action in the world. The author, an Anglican Franciscan friar and theologian, reflects on the wealth of Orthodox spirituality through the teachings of its key figures and texts: · Evagrius of Pontus (345 – 399) One of the first Orthodox theologians and desert father. · John of Sinai (c. 579 – 649) Abbot and writer of the highly influential The Ladder of Divine Ascent. · Isaac of Syria (7th century) A much-loved hermit · Maximos the Confessor (580 – 662) A philosopher, theologian, martyr and teacher. · Symeon the New Theologian (949 – 1022) A monastic reformer, with deep mystical experiences of God’s radiant light. · Gregory Palamas (1296 – 1359) A theologian, monk, and teacher of practice of silent prayer. The aim is to enable readers to gain a sense of connection with the saints of Eastern Christianity as spiritual guides for today.
