The Role of the Bishop in Late Antiquity

Conflict and Compromise

By: Andrew Fear,José Fernández Urbiña,Mar Marcos Sanchez

Late Antiquity witnessed a major transformation in the authority and power of the Episcopate within the Church, with the result that bishops came to embody the essence of Christianity and increasingly overshadow the leading Christian laity. The rise of Episcopal power came in a period in which drastic political changes produced long and significant conflicts both within and outside the Church. This book examines these problems in depth, looking at bishops' varied roles in both causing and resolving these disputes, including those internal to the church, those which began within the church but had major effects on wider society, and those of a secular nature.

Mark, a Pauline Theologian

A Re-reading of the Traditions of Jesus in the Light of Paul's Theology

By: Mar Pérez I Diaz

Is the wide range of indications in the Gospel of Mark for the influence of Pauline theology the fruit of chance or rather of the will of the Evangelist to unify his work with the thought of the Apostle Paul? In this study, Mar Pérez i Días argues that Mark, rather than being a disciple of Peter who puts in writing what he remembers from his preaching, is a theological disciple of Paul." --

The Art of Loving as Tree. Me, You and Us

Theory and practice for couple relationships

By: María del Mar Cegarra Cervantes

This book is a reflection of the author's clinical and human experience as a Clinical Psychologist and Somatic Psychoterapist for Couples, as well as of heart experience as a Woman. The book is a divided in two parts. The firts part is shaped as a novel and tells us the story of the therapeutic sessions of several couples, their complaits, requests and suffering, as well as their psychoterapist Laura. The second part is more clinical, with ideas, tools, exercises and important figures that can be very useful for Psichotherapists, Psichologists, Doctors and Students of these areas, as wellas to any Professional in the Social Intervention fielt. It is mostly a book which goal is to expand the awareness, by identifying the "mines and traps" that make it difficult for us to find a balance between being "together" and "apart", as well as "giving" and "receiving" Love with Soul, Heart and Simplicity. "Living is simple; the hard thing is to be simple". The goal was to use a less clinical language, more accessible to everyone, so that the message could be better conveyed, by making the reading easier for all of those that are not related to this area. Being a psychotherapist, and especially a body pychotherapist has to be continuously waching himself, since his body is also a work instrument that gives much information about what is happening in the room or with the client... The psychotherapist needs to know how to move, touch, put, be in resonance, tell the difference between what is his tone of voice, gestures and look. Everything can affect the other. It is a very different scenario than the one that Laura got used to when she was only a clinical psychologist. The more she moves forward in her professional career the more she realizes that leaming has no end and that the evolution must be constant. As a psychologist the meeting was more clinical, more with the purpose of diagnosing, mostly using cognitive tools or test betteries...

Short stories to tell

By: Rosario Lisciandro,María del Mar Palenzuela Pérez,Tim Spratt

The origin of this book is due to a short story competition "Short Stories to Tell" on the occasion of the English Language Day, framed within a programme of activities developed by the Language Centre of the University of Almeria and the Vice-Rectorate for Communication and University Extension. Those responsible for this activity are the lecturers of the Department of Philology Rosario Lisciandro and María del Mar Palenzuela Pérez in collaboration with Tim Spratt, teacher of the Language Centre. The book is made up of 29 stories in English whose authors are students and lovers of the English language. The stories are original and have been selected by a jury. The thematic variety of the stories gives the book an interesting, entertaining, heterogeneous and culturally diverse character. Moreover, the cultural and nationality diversity of the authors gives the book a distinctive element.

María Jesús Barrera es una escritora experimentada que sabe utilizar los recursos de la narrativa moderna sin confundir al lector. Con Vetas de pasiones ofrece su obra más madura y nos introduce a un pasado de México, lleno de magia y colorido. Wolfgang Vogt Con Vetas de pasiones, de María Jesús Barreta, Real de Catorce conmemora su abandono con buena literatura Miguel García Ascencio -Todos fueron cómplices del crimen -murmura Lorenzo. Se sostiene en el bastón de alma de hierro con cabeza de oro. Necesita reconstruir la historia de Catorce. En él están las voces de cada uno de los personajes que lo han habitado. Los hechos pasados cobran sentido a través de su tono. El Real es una caja sonora. Lorenzo evoca la sonoridad tersa y cadenciosa de su abuela Pascuala, que fue medio adivina y comadrona. Atendió el parto en el que él llegó al mundo. Auguró -Naciste de pies, Lorenzo; tendrás buena suerte -Lo dijo un cuatro de octubre, día de San Francisco de Asís, durante el festejo de un aniversario más de la fundación de Catorce. A sus seis años las palabras de su abuela produjeron en Lorenzo enorme placer. Feliz vio el chisporrotear de la fogata rodeada de hombres. Ese día Ramón, historiador aficionado, contó como fue el inicio de Catorce...

Witches of America

By: Alex Mar

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Witches of America

By: Alex Mar

Witches are gathering." When most people hear the word "witches," they think of horror films and Halloween, but to the nearly one million Americans who practice Paganism today, witchcraft is a nature-worshipping, polytheistic, and very real religion. So Alex Mar discovers when she sets out to film a documentary and finds herself drawn deep into the world of present-day magic. Witches of America follows Mar on her immersive five-year trip into the occult, charting modern Paganism from its roots in 1950s England to its current American mecca in the San Francisco Bay Area; from a gathering of more than a thousand witches in the Illinois woods to the New Orleans branch of one of the world's most influential magical societies. Along the way she takes part in dozens of rituals and becomes involved with a wild array of characters. This sprawling magical community compels Mar to confront what she believes is possible--or hopes might be. With keen intelligence and wit, Mar illuminates the world of witchcraft while grappling in fresh and unexpected ways with the question underlying every faith: Why do we choose to believe in anything at all?--Adapted from book jacket.

El falso documental

Evolución, estructura y argumentos del fake

By: Mar López Ligero

El falso documental ha pasado de ser una producción anecdótica a convertirse en una categoría cinematográfica reconocida por el gran público. Aunque su popularidadactual es incuestionable, no se trata de una forma nueva, sino que podemos rastrearla desde el inicio del cinematógrafo. Este libro recopila algunos de los títulos más emblemáticos, buscando a través de su estudio las características y la estructura que lo definen como modelo documental.En sus páginas se mantiene que todo fake puede ser estudiado no solo por los códigos tradicionalmente adscritos a los relatos de realidad que parasita, sino también por el contexto de su producción, su recepción y por la actitud mantenida por el texto. Alguno de los aspectos que mejor definen el falso documental es su falta de vocaciónde engaño y su insistencia en retratar los medios de comunicación de una manera subversiva.

The Book of Marganitha (The Pearl)

On the Truth of Christianity

By: Armenia,Mar O'Dishoo Metropolitan of Suwa

This book, originally written in the Aramaic language was translated in the spring of 1964 by His Holiness, Mar Eshai Shimun XXIII, Catholicos Patriarch of the Church of the East. This work was little known since the original printed copies were mostly destroyed. This reproduction represents no changes to the original translation with the exception of spelling corrections and standardizing the protocol from English to American diction. His Holiness Mar Eshai Shimun XXIII, Catholicos Patriarch was the Supreme Head of the Church of the East, its Universal Pastor from 1920 until his assassination in 1975. Born in southern Turkey, His Holiness was raised with care, having received theological and liturgical training in the Middle East and in England at St. Augustines College and later Cambridge University. He worked tirelessly fighting for the Church and his Assyrian people. Often in danger of his life, he met with foreign diplomats and heads of states appealing to the League of Nations and later, the United Nations all the while contacting world leaders and discussing with them the Assyrian Questions. In later years, he was received throughout the Middle East by Islamic Heads of state in a most respectful and amiable of circumstances which speaks to his worldly sophistication and influence as a true leader. His Holiness was a profound scholar, an exemplary writer, a charismatic speaker and was a recognized subject matter expert in Ecclesiastical History and an authority the on History of Christianity in the Middle East and Far East. An innovative leader of the Church and Assyrian people, well schooled in both the ecclesiastical aspects of his vocation, as well as geo-political issues. Attuned to the needs of his flock and nation he mindfully navigated the tenuous landscape with uncompromising ethics, integrity and superior leadership, which were the hallmarks of his character and a truly remarkable Patriarch. His agility in managing both the secular and temporal affairs bespoke his magnificent stewardship of the Assyrian people and the Church of the East.

The Politics of Language in the Spanish-Speaking World

From Colonization to Globalization

By: Clare Mar-Molinero

Spanish is now the third most widely spoken language in the world after English and Chinese. This book traces how and why Spanish has arrived at this position, examining its role in the diverse societies where it is spoken from Europe to the Americas. Providing a comprehensive survey of language issues in the Spanish-speaking world, the book outlines the historical roots of the emergence of Spanish or Castilian as the dominant language, analyzes the situation of minority language groups, and traces the role of Spanish and its colonial heritage in Latin America. The book is structured in four sections: Spanish as a national language: conflict and hegemony Legislation and the realities of linguistic diversity Language and education The future of Spanish. Throughout the book Clare Mar-Molinero asks probing questions such as: How does language relate to power? What is its link with identity? What is the role of language in nation-building? Who decides how language is taught?

Pan's Labyrinth

By: Mar Diestro-Dópido

Guillermo del Toro's cult masterpiece, Pan's Labyrinth (2006), won a total of 76 awards and is one of the most commercially successful Spanish-language films ever made. Blending the world of monstrous fairytales with the actual horrors of post-Civil War Spain, the film's commingling of real and fantasy worlds speaks profoundly to our times. Immersing herself in the nightmarish world that del Toro has so minutely orchestrated, Mar Diestro-Dópido explores the cultural and historical contexts surrounding the film. Examining del Toro's ground-breaking use of mythology, and how the film addresses ideas of memory and forgetting, she highlights the techniques, themes and cultural references that combine in Pan's Labyrinth to spawn an uncontainable plurality of meanings, which only multiply on contact with the viewer. This special edition features an exclusive interview with del Toro and original cover artwork by Santiago Caruso.
