Atlanta and Environs

A Chronicle of Its People and Events, 1820s-1870s

By: Franklin M. Garrett

Atlanta and Environs" is, in every way, an exhaustive history of the Atlanta Area from the time of its settlement in the 1820s through the 1970s. Volumes I and II, together more than two thousand pages in length, represent a quarter century of research by their author, Franklin M. Garrett--a man called "a walking encyclopedia on Atlanta history" by the "Atlanta Journal-Constitution." With the publication of Volume III, by Harold H. Martin, this chronicle of the South's most vibrant city incorporates the spectacular growth and enterprise that have characterized Atlanta in recent decades. The work is arranged chronologically, with a section devoted to each decade, a chapter to each year. Volume I covers the history of Atlanta and its people up to 1880--ranging from the city's founding as "Terminus" through its Civil War destruction and subsequent phoenixlike rebirth. Volume II details Atlanta's development from 1880 through the 1930s--including occurrences of such diversity as the development of the Coca-Cola Company and the Atlanta premiere of Gone with the Wind. Taking up the city's fortunes in the 1940s, Volume III spans the years of Atlanta's greatest growth. Tracing the rise of new building on the downtown skyline and the construction of Hartsfield International Airport on the city's perimeter, covering the politics at City Hall and the box scores of Atlanta's new baseball team, recounting the changing terms of race relations and the city's growing support of the arts, the last volume of "Atlanta and Environs" documents the maturation of the South's preeminent city.

Women, Reform and Community in Early Modern England

Katherine Willoughby, Duchess of Suffolk, and Lincolnshire's Godly Aristocracy, 1519-1580

By: Melissa Franklin-Harkrider

Katherine Willoughby, duchess of Suffolk, was one of the highest-ranking noblewomen in sixteenth-century England. She wielded considerable political power in her local community and at court, and her social status and her commitment to religious reform placed her at the centre of the political and religious developments that shaped the English Reformation." "By focusing on her kinship and patronage network, this book offers an examination of the development of Protestantism in the governing classes during the period. The importance of gender in the process of spiritual transformation emerges clearly from this study, showing how the changing religious climate provided new opportunities for women to exert greater influence in their society."--BOOK JACKET.

Age of Transition

Byzantine Culture in the Islamic World

By: Edward Bleiberg,Lisa R. Brody,Steven Fine,Arnold E. Franklin,Alan Gampel,Claus-Peter Haase,Lyle Humphrey,Hieromonk Justin of Sinai,Annie Montgomery Labatt,Lawrence Nees,Robert Schick,Carol Snow

Building on the groundbreaking 2012 exhibition “Byzantium and Islam: Age of Transition,” which explored the transformations and continuities in the Byzantine Empire from the seventh to the ninth century, the present volume extends the exhibition catalogue’s innovative investigation of cultural interaction between Christian and Jewish communities and the world of Islam. Eleven essays by internationally distinguished scholars address such topics as the transmission of Christian imagery to the Mediterranean, icons preserved in The Holy Monastery of Saint Catherine at Sinai, interaction between Jewish communities and the Muslim world, the purposeful mutilation of figurative floor mosaics in places of worship, the evolution of classical and Byzantine motifs in a new cosmology for Muslim rulers, and interconnections in the realm of music. Each essay provides compelling evidence that the era of transition from Byzantine to Islamic rule in the eastern Mediterranean and North Africa resulted in unprecedented cultural cross-fertilization and significantly affected the development of the Mediterranean world for centuries to come.

When "The" Church Rides the Beast

An Antichrist-Centered Mystery!

By: Franklin S. Fowler Jr.

This book candidly unfolds Revelation 13, 17, and 18, which describe who the apocalyptic antichrist is! In the very heart of Johns end-time prophetic narrative comes stunning imagery of the final three phases of this powerful being and his church. They are the fulfillment of Daniels prophecies of the little horn, vile person, and king of the north! With unreserved clarity, John is told that this religious power would be centered in the city of the seven hills with stunning geopolitical ties to the leaders of the world. The clues of when it begins are amazing. It is inaugurated at a time when a woman and a beasta church and a statehave merged. There is no other conclusion that can be drawn than that this is when the Roman Catholic Church was awarded the Vatican City State in 1929. The papal leaders from that point on, with its final forty-two months of history, are given in vivid detail. In arresting detail, God discloses the horrifying suppressive power this church will soon wield and the worlds gullible worship of its falsehoods. This amazing document mines the very depths of truths God has revealed, as never before, for us today.
