A Populist, a Pope, and the Soul of a Nation

Fratelli Tutti in an Age of Global Trumpism

By: Jacqueline Murray Brux

Finally, a political economist with the lived experience and academic background necessary to explain Pope Francis’s disdain for today’s rightwing ideologies of populism, nationalism, authoritarianism, and unrestrained capitalism, as expressed in his encyclical Fratelli Tutti. Written for both Catholics and non-Catholics, for those of any faith and no faith, and for academics and non-academics, this is the book you’ve been waiting for if you want to understand the intersection of politics and religion in the era of global Trumpism and to comprehend the suffering caused by these ideologies in the world today. Recognizing the deep divide on matters of truth and the profound hurt caused by our polarized society, Murray Brux explains how compassionate encounters and truth-telling can bring healing to a broken world and its suffering people. Written in a fully comprehensible manner, this is a book in the tradition of Catholic social justice at its best!

Poetry as Window and Mirror

Positioning the Poet in Hellenistic Poetry

By: Jacqueline Klooster

Hellenistic Poetry has enjoyed a notable re-appreciation in recent years and received ample scholarly discussion, especially focusing on its reception and innovation of Greek poetic tradition. This book wishes to add to our picture of how Hellenistic poetry works by looking at it from a slightly different angle. Concentrating on the interaction between contemporary poets, it attempts to view the dynamics of imitation and reception in the light of poetical self-positioning. In the courtly Alexandrian surroundings, choosing a poetic model and affiliation determines one's position in the cultural field. This book sets out to chart, not only the well-known complexities of handling the poetic past, but especially their relation to the poetic interaction of the Hellenistic, in particular Alexandrian poets.

The Archive of Thotsutmis, Son of Panouphis

Early Ptolemaic Ostraca from Deir el Bahari (O. Edgerton)

By: Jacqueline E. Jay,Brian Muhs,Foy D. Scalf

The Archive of Thotsutmis, Son of Panouphis presents for the first time one of the largest collections of Demotic ostraca to have been discovered intact by archaeologists in the twentieth century. Rarely have such deposits been found in situ. Excavated by Ambrose Lansing on behalf of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1915-16 at the site of Deir el-Bahari, the integrity and context of this find are critical to the proper understanding of the texts it contained. Through the publication and analysis of this archive of Demotic and Greek texts recorded on ostraca, Muhs, Scalf, and Jay reconstruct the microhistory of Thotsutmis, son of Panouphis, and his family, who worked in Egypt on the west bank of Thebes as priests in the mortuary industry during the early Ptolemaic Period in the third century BC. The forty-two ostraca published in this volume provide a rare opportunity to explore the intersections between an intact ancient archive of private administrative documents and the larger social and legal contexts into which they fit. What the reconstructed microhistory reveals is an ancient family striving to make it among the wealthy and connected social network of Theban choachytes and pastophoroi, while they simultaneously navigated the bureaucratic maze of taxes, fees, receipts, and legal procedures of the Ptolemaic state.

Economic Issues and Policy

By: Jacqueline Murray Brux,Janna L. Cowen

This text presents basic economics through a lively, non-biased, student-friendly discussion of economic issues and of the policy perspectives surrounding them. It effectively balances liberal and conservative viewpoints and incorporates solid international coverage. Student understanding is enhanced through an exceptionally clear writing style, and by leaving out or relegating to appendices complex topics more appropriate for a Principles of Economics course.

All Too Human

The Love Story of Jack and Jackie Kennedy

By: Edward Klein,John Fitzgerald Kennedy,Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

The animations of Japan’s Studio Ghibli are amongst the highest regarded in the movie industry. Their delightful films rank alongside the most popular non-English language films ever made, with each new eagerly-anticipated release a guaranteed box-office smash. Yet this highly profitable studio has remained fiercely independent, producing a stream of imaginative and individual animations. The studio’s founders, long-time animators Isao Takahata and Hayao Miyazaki, have created timeless masterpieces. Although their films are distinctly Japanese their themes are universal—humanity, community, and a love for the environment. No other film studio, animation or otherwise, comes close to matching Ghibli for pure cinematic experience. All their major works are examined here, as well the early output of Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, exploring the cultural and thematic threads that bind these films together.
