Mussolini's Greek Island

Fascism and the Italian Occupation of Syros in World War II

By: Sheila Lecoeur

A powerful and unique study of the realities and long-term impact of occupation, "Mussolini's Greek Island" reveals the Italian dictator's imperial vision, the mechanisms of Italian occupation and its tragic consequences. The small island of Syros is a vital entry-point illuminating Italian imperialism - its ethos, fascist connection, pretension and administrative achievements, marred by famine. Here Lecoeur examines the devastating effects of war and occupation on the local community - starvation, corruption and survival - and, drawing on local archives and interviews with survivors, offers new insight into this crucial but little known episode. Enriching our understanding of Mussolini's hegemonic visions and the mechanisms of occupation, a key issue of our times, this path-breaking book will appeal to scholars of fascism, World War II and military occupation in general.

Montesquieu’s Idea of Justice

By: Sheila Mary Mason

Part One of Montesquieu's Idea of Justice comprises a survey of the currency in philosophical, ethical and aesthetic debate during the second half of the 17th century of the terms rapport and convenance, which are central to the enigmatic definition given to justice by Mon tesquieu in Lettres Persanes LXXXllI. In this survey, attention is concen trated on the way in which the connotations of these terms fluctuate with the divergent development of the methodological and speculative outgrowths of Cartesian ism into two schools of thought, materialist and idealist, often widely at variance in their views of the nature and orga nization of the universe. In Part Two, Montesquieu's definition of justice is set against this background, whose doctrinal conflicts, because of the characteristic as sociations of its key terms, it may be taken to reflect, just as it may be held to epitomize, by virtue of its elaboration in the opening chapter of De l' Esprit des Lois and its close terminological affinities with the defini tion of law there given, an undoubtedly related conflict between the implications of causal determinism and the aspirations of idealist meta physics surviving at the heart of Montesquieu's outlook, and, remaining unresolved, often said to impair the coherence if not the validity of his theory of society.

You Are Dearly Loved

By: Sheila S. Dempsey Ph.D.

You Are Dearly Loved was written to help you feel Spirit’s love for you—no matter who you are in the eyes of society, no matter what you’ve done or neglected to do. The author recounts the story of her awakening to Spirit’s love, beginning with a mystical experience where an energy of such immense power and love burst through her that, for the first time in her life, she felt truly loved. In a life filled with chronic illness and depression, it was a miraculous moment and she would never be the same again. After years of meditating, she began to receive messages of love from Spirit for others, and there are several “Messages from Spirit” for you throughout the book. You Are Dearly Loved also addresses the issue of how the culture can make it difficult to remember who we really are—infinite awareness and infinite love.
