El largo río de las almas

Autor: Moore, Liz

Número de Páginas: 538

El barrio de Kensington, situado en las afueras de Filadelfia, es el lugar donde se ubica El largo río de las almas. Allí, el alcohol y la heroína tienen gran demanda. La autora Liz Moore retrata, a través de la relación entre dos hermanas, a una deprimente sociedad cuyo único futuro está puesto en conseguir la próxima dosis. Michaela Fitpatrick, Mickey o Mick, es una policía de esa zona de la ciudad. Recorre a diario su avenida principal, de la cual salen múltiples callejones en los que se cometen todo tipo de delitos. Una mañana, su compañero Eddie Lafferty y ella encuentran el cadáver de una joven. Un cuerpo sin vida, sin nombre y sin un ser querido que lo reclame. Esta chica le recuerda a su hermana Kacey. Ésta abandonó su casa atraída por el mundo de las drogas. Vagabundea, como tantas otras, por las calles del barrio sin otro sitio donde refugiarse que las casas abandonadas. Quisiera ayudarla a desintoxicarse, sin embargo, hace tiempo que perdieron el contacto. Por eso, le angustia pensar que la próxima vez que la vea pueda estar muerta.

Autor: Jacob Neusner

Número de Páginas: 166

The history of Jews from the period of the Second Temple to the rise of Islam. From 'A History of the Mishnaic Law of Appointed Times, Part 1' This volume introduces the sources of Judaism in late antiquity to scholars in adjacent fields, such as the study of the Old and New Testaments, Ancient History, the ancient Near East, and the history of religion. In two volumes, leading American, Israeli, and European specialists in the history, literature, theology, and archaeology of Judaism offer factual answers to the two questions that the study of any religion in ancient times must raise. The first is, what are the sources -- written and in material culture -- that inform us about that religion? The second is, how have we to understand those sources in reconstructing the history of various Judaic systems in antiquity. The chapters set forth in simple statements, intelligible to non-specialists, the facts which the sources provide. Because of the nature of the subject and acute interest in it, the specialists also raise some questions particular to the study of Judaism, dealing with its historical relationship with nascent Christianity in New Testament times. The work forms the...

HUSBANDS LOVE YOUR WIVES

HUSBANDS LOVE YOUR WIVES

Autor: Edward D. Andrews

Número de Páginas: 177

In an era where marriages face challenges from all sides, "HUSBANDS LOVE Your WIVES: How Should Husbands Treat Their Wives?" offers a Scriptural roadmap for men striving to emulate the love and leadership demonstrated by Christ. As the Apostle Paul has outlined, the husband is the head of the wife just as Christ is the head of the church. This headship is not one of tyranny or arbitrary rule but one characterized by love, respect, and spiritual guidance. In this comprehensive guide, each chapter focuses on a distinct principle or practice crucial for husbands to internalize. The book begins by laying the foundation with "The Head of a Woman Is the Man," where the Biblical view of a husband’s role is carefully examined. Following chapters delve into gaining deep respect from one's spouse, the two keys to a lasting marriage, and how to build a strong and happy marital relationship. Through chapters like "Husbands—Recognize Christ’s Headship," the book underscores the essentiality of acknowledging the ultimate Headship of Christ over every Christian institution, including the family. Understanding the weight of this responsibility, the book provides "Wise Guidance for Married...

Close to Home

Close to Home

Autor: Christine Delphy

Número de Páginas: 257

Classic analysis of gender relations and patriarchy under capitalism Close to Home is the classic study of family, patriarchal ideologies, and the politics and strategy of women’s liberation. On the table in this forceful and provocative debate are questions of whether men can be feminists, whether “bourgeois” and heterosexual women are retrogressive members of the women’s movement, and how best to struggle against the multiple oppressions women endure. Rachel Hills’s foreword to this new edition explores how Christine Delphy’s analysis of marriage as the institution behind the exploitation of unpaid women’s labor is as radical and relevant today as it ever was.

The Aristocracy in the County of Champagne, 1100-1300

The Aristocracy in the County of Champagne, 1100-1300

Autor: Theodore Evergates

Número de Páginas: 424

Theodore Evergates provides the first systematic analysis of the aristocracy in the county of Champagne under the independent counts. He argues that three factors—the rise of the comital state, fiefholding, and the conjugal family—were critical to shaping a loose assortment of baronial and knightly families into an aristocracy with shared customs, institutions, and identity. Evergates mines the rich, varied, and in some respects unique collection of source materials from Champagne to provide a dynamic picture of a medieval aristocracy and its evolving symbiotic relationship with the counts. Count Henry the Liberal (1152-81) began the process of transforming a quasi-independent baronage accustomed to collegial governance into an elite of landholding families subordinate to the count and his officials. By the time Countess Jeanne married the future King Philip IV of France in 1284, the fiefholding families of Champagne had become a distinct provincial nobility. Throughout, it was the conjugal community, rather than primogeniture or patrilineage, that remained the core familial institution determining the customs regarding community property, dowry, dower, and partible...

Considering Alan Ball

Considering Alan Ball

Autor: Thomas Fahy

Número de Páginas: 191

Academy Award-winning screenwriter of the film American Beauty and creator of the HBO series Six Feet Under, Alan Ball has consistently probed the cultural forces shaping gender, sexuality, and death in the United States. Through gritty dialogue and edgy humor, Ball centers much of his social critique on the illusory promises of the American Dream. For many of his characters, a belief in the American Dream--including idealized notions of the family, heterosexual norms, and the acceptance of prescribed gender roles--proves stifling and self-destructive. This is the first book to explore Ball's writings for theater, television and film, with an emphasis on his best-known work. These essays offer insight into both the captivating and problematic dimensions of Ball's work, while drawing connections among his diverse writings. An interview with Ball is included.

Sexual Divisions and Society

Sexual Divisions and Society

Autor: Sheila Allen , Diana Leonard Barker

Número de Páginas: 415

Originally published in 1976, Sexual Divisions and Society argues that mainstream sociology has neglected to incorporate the notion of sexual divisions as an integral part of its theoretical underpinnings. It suggests that sociology has often included women completely within the term of ‘men’, or as a part of their husbands, rather than asking how and when the relationship between the sexes is pertinent to the explanation of social structure and behaviour. The volume is composed of papers brought together from the 1974 British Sociological Association Conference on Sexual Divisions.

Henry Fielding at Work

Henry Fielding at Work

Autor: L. Bertelsen

Número de Páginas: 234

As a writer, businessman and magistrate, Henry Fielding was in a singular position to textualize eighteenth-century English cultural conditions and materially to author the text of his society. Not only did he extol employment, he co-owned an employment agency. Not only did he commit fictional criminals to paper, he committed actual criminals to prison. And he could and did commit actual criminals to prison and paper simultaneously. Henry Fielding at Work examines the intersections of Fielding's practice as magistrate, businessman, and writer, and explores the ways Fielding's experience in those capacities affected the conception, form and articulation of his final literary works.
