Pudentiana Deacon

Printed Writings 1500–1640: Series I, Part Three, Volume 4

By: Frans Blom

Delicious entertainments of the soule is a translation of a collection of conferences which Francis de Sales held for the Order of the Sisters of the Visitation. This order took the form of an institute for young girls and widows who wanted to enter a convent but lacked the strength or the inclination for the physical austerities of the great orders. It was for these sisters that Francis held conferences or 'familiar conversations' on religious topics at regular intervals. These conversations were not written out by Francis himself but were noted down and collected by the sisters. Pudentiana Deacon's translation of these transcripts gives the reader an idea of the personality of the speaker. De Sale comes across as a humane, commonsensical, practical man with an occasional sense of humour and a shrewd idea of the specific worries and temptations of his audience.

Elizabeth Evelinge, I

Printed Writings 1500–1640: Series I, Part Three, Volume 3

By: Frans Korsten

The history of the angelicall virgin glorious S.Clare (Douai 1635) is a translation by 'Sister Magdalen' of a work by the Franciscan priest François Hendricq, Vie admirable de madame S. Claire fondatrice des Pauvres Clairesses (1631). In its turn Hendricq's book is largely a translation of parts of Luke Wadding's Annales ordinis minorum ('Annals of the Franciscan Order'). These volumes include an account of the activities of the young woman, Clara Offreduccio di Favarone, one of the many followers of St. Francis of Assisi. In 1212 Clara was advised by St. Francis to withdraw to the monastery at San Damiano in Assisi. In this way St. Francis founded his Second Order, an order of religious women known as the Poor Clares. 'Sister Magdalen' has been identified as Elizabeth Evelinge who belonged to a dissident group of Poor Clares that left their English convent at Gravelines in 1627 and started a new convent at Aire in May 1629. The copy of her translation reproduced in this volume is that of Heythrop College, University of London.

Supernatural Culture

By: Frans Du Plessis

Signs and wonders are not a gift but a promise to all believers. For over 40 years Frans has walked in the miraculous. His life is a stirring testimony to the power of God's supernatural provision, revelation, intervention, healing and, most of all, His loving, abiding and never failing presence, not only for himself and his family, but for many others as well. Contrary to the views of many, Frans insists, signs and wonders should be as normal for the church today as they were for the New Testament church in the days of the apostles. Miracles are not reserved for the super-spiritual, but should be the bread and butter of daily life for the ordinary believer. In a season for miracles, Frans proves his point through powerful vignettes drawn from his own life experiences and testimonies that will have you laughing, crying, shouting, praising, and worshiping in awestruck silence the God of miracles, mercy, and grace. Most importantly, Frans' stories will strengthen your faith, building up in you that confident conviction that you too can walk in the miraculous.

Revealing God's Intended Finish

By: Frans Du Plessis

We need a fresh revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ to accurately understand the end, for Christ is the beginning and end of all things. This apostolic season is bringing a fresh interest in the study about the end (eschatology), and it is changing the paradigm of the Church forever. God’s intended end (eschatology) is to have a corporate, many-membered Son who inherits and rules over all creation. Fullness is Christ the Son bringing many sons to glory, manifesting His eternal Kingdom through a corporate Son who reveals His love, righteousness, and goodness in the earth. If you are ready for a radical change, this book is for you. If you are tired of going around the mountain and tired of unfulfilled prophecies and promises, then this book is surely for you. God is seeking a mature, corporate son in the earth who will manifest Christ to the world—not only one facet of Him, but Christ in all His fullness. Discovering the truth about the end will shake the religious systems of this world. To be effective and relevant today, we must understand the end. The birth of Jesus announced the end of the “night” and the beginning of a glorious new “day”—the day of the New Covenant that will shine brighter and brighter until the end.

Our Inner Ape

A Leading Primatologist Explains Why We Are Who We Are

By: Frans de Waal

Visit the author's Web site at www.ourinnerape.com It’s no secret that humans and apes share a host of traits, from the tribal communities we form to our irrepressible curiosity. We have a common ancestor, scientists tell us, so it’s natural that we act alike. But not all of these parallels are so appealing: the chimpanzee, for example, can be as vicious and manipulative as any human. Yet there’s more to our shared primate heritage than just our violent streak. In Our Inner Ape, Frans de Waal, one of the world’s great primatologists and a renowned expert on social behavior in apes, presents the provocative idea that our noblest qualities—generosity, kindness, altruism—are as much a part of our nature as are our baser instincts. After all, we share them with another primate: the lesser-known bonobo. As genetically similar to man as the chimpanzee, the bonobo has a temperament and a lifestyle vastly different from those of its genetic cousin. Where chimps are aggressive, territorial, and hierarchical, bonobos are gentle, loving, and erotic (sex for bonobos is as much about pleasure and social bonding as it is about reproduction). While the parallels between chimp brutality and human brutality are easy to see, de Waal suggests that the conciliatory bonobo is just as legitimate a model to study when we explore our primate heritage. He even connects humanity’s desire for fairness and its morality with primate behavior, offering a view of society that contrasts markedly with the caricature people have of Darwinian evolution. It’s plain that our finest qualities run deeper in our DNA than experts have previously thought. Frans de Waal has spent the last two decades studying our closest primate relations, and his observations of each species in Our Inner Ape encompass the spectrum of human behavior. This is an audacious book, an engrossing discourse that proposes thought-provoking and sometimes shocking connections among chimps, bonobos, and those most paradoxical of apes, human beings.

Cape Baroque

and the contribution of Anton Anreith

By: Frans Hansen

The material culture of the old Cape Colony has been well enough documented in largely descriptive studies and ÿpublications. There are comprehensive books on ?Cape Dutch? architecture, on furniture, silver, copper, and on what was the outstanding practitioner towards the end of the 18th century, Anton Anreith. What Hans Fransen has done in this new volume, is to investigate whether, and to what extent, the surprisingly rich body of Cape material culture ? the decorative gables of its homesteads, the city mansions with their ornate entrances and cornices, the superbly crafted armoires, can be seen as part and parcel of the international Baroque: that ebullient style of painting, architecture and design that swept across Europe and some of its spheres of influence.

Strategy and Tactics for Social Innovation

By: Sanderijn Cels,Jorrit de Jong,Frans Nauta

A Brookings Institution Press and Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation publication While governments around the world struggle to maintain service levels amid fiscal crises, social innovators are improving social outcomes for citizens by changing the system from within. In Agents of Change, three cutting-edge thinkers and entrepreneurs present case studies of social innovation that have led to significant social change. Drawing on original empirical research in the United States, Canada, Japan, Germany, Denmark, and the Netherlands, they examine how ordinary people accomplished extraordinary results. Sanderijn Cels, Jorrit de Jong, and Frans Nauta offer lively illustrations and insightful interpretations of how innovators, social entrepreneurs, and change agents are dealing with powerful opponents, the burdens of bureaucracy, and the challenge of securing resources and support. This book will appeal to anyone who is intrigued by imaginative, cross-boundary thinking and transformative change. It will be of particular interest to those who want to know how exactly innovators pull it off. With practitioners, scholars, and students of public policy and management in mind, the authors dissect the strategies and tactics that social innovators employ to navigate the risky waters of their institutional environments.
