Thousands and Thousands of Lovers examines the spiritual significance of community to the Cistercian nuns of Helfta—a concern that lies at the heart of the monastery’s literature. Focusing on a woefully understudied resource and the largest body of female-authored writings in the thirteenth century, this book offers insight into the religious preoccupations of a theologically expert and intellectually vibrant cloister to reveal a subtle interplay between communal practice and private piety, other-directed attention, and inward-religious impulse. It considers the nuns’ attitudes toward community among themselves and with their household members as well as with souls in purgatory and the saints.
Food trucks are something of an institution in American culture and have been around for more than a century. These days there is a huge range of gastronomic treats available, dished up out of an incredible variety of vehicles--from caravans, station wagons and vans to trucks and buses--all decorated in their own distinctive and charismatic style. Each food truck can offer not just something to eat, but a complete gastronomic experience, eighteen exclusive recipes full of creativity and good taste, an essential part of what these fabulous pop-up kitchens on wheels provide for their customers. Image and originality have become as important to the product as the food itself.
