La vestale【電子書籍】[ A. Klitsche de la Grange ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Guardiane del Fuoco Sacro del tempio di Vesta, le sacerdotesse Vestali hanno un ruolo importante nell'immaginario collettivo dell'Antica Roma. Basti ricordare che Rea Silvia, madre di Romolo e Remo, era anche lei sacerdotessa del tempio. Figure sacre e allo stesso tempo tragiche, costrette a rinunce oltremodo gravose e a regole severissime, la vita delle Vestali ha offerto negli anni innumerevoli spunti letterari. "La vestale", scritto sul tramonto del diciannovesimo secolo, si sofferma proprio sulla dimensione drammatica della vita di una di queste sacerdotesse. Andando oltre la concezione dorata di una Roma perfetta, la protagonista di questo romanzo si far? carico e portavoce di un'esistenza complicata e profondamente umana.-</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,600円

For anyone that has any doubt about the truth of the matter, it becomes abundantly clear that the war on drugs is really a war on people, ? good wholesome people that care for their children and make a positive contribution to their community. This is a must read. The War on Drug’s: An Old Wives’ Tale lays bare the absurdity of Marijuana Prohibition, the lies and injustice of our Legal System, and the unscientific, unethical nature of 'The Recovery Industry.' Read it. Believe it. And be warned."</p> <p>Another reviewer wrote: "I live in the county this book takes place in. I drive by the courthouse mentioned often. I never knew anything like this was going on in my area. It was devastating to read, but devastating in the way we need to be devastated in order for our nation to see progress. I appreciated the ability to step inside a real family going through this. That personal connection made the book feel relatable, and it was easy, as a fellow mother, to picture myself living this nightmare if my life had gone a different direction. The day by day format of the book works well for demonstrating the struggle as a daily battle rather than one big event. It was hundreds of bad events. Lots of bad policies, lots of injustice, lots of anger and fear. I highly recommend this to those who think drugs are something only found in 'that part of town' or that all those involved are 'that sort of people.'

Rohingya Camp Narratives Tales From the ‘Lesser Roads’ Traveled【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book presents thirteen chapters which probe the “tales less told” and “pathways less traveled” in refugee camp living. Rohingya camps in Bangladesh since August 2017 supply these “tales” and “pathways”. They dwell upon/reflect camp violence, sexual/gender discrimination, intersectionality, justice, the sudden COVID camp entry, human security, children education, innovation, and relocation plans. Built largely upon field trips, these narratives interestingly interweave with both theoretical threads (hypotheses) and tapestries (net-effects), feeding into the security-driven pulls of political realism, or disseminating from humanitarian-driven socioeconomic pushes, but mostly combining them. Post-ethnic cleansing and post-exodus windows open up a murky future for Rohingya and global refugees. We learn of positive offshoots (of camp innovations exposing civil society relevance) and negative (like human and sex trafficking beyond Bangladeshi and Myanmar borders), as of navigating (a) local?global linkages of every dynamic and (b) fast-moving current circumstances against stoic historical leftovers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 7,292円

Ole Wives Tales And Church Doctrine【電子書籍】[ Forrest Davis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>I define Ole Wives Tales, as a belief or practice that is not completely supported by the bible. Have you ever heard someone say: I dont care what the bible says; I know what Ive been taught? If so, you were a witness to an Ole Wives Tale in action. I used the word completely in the first sentence because most of the ole tales rely on excerpts from scripture to support their conclusions. Jesus taught us that the whole bible must be merged into a consensus about any subject that is taught. He illustrated that when He was being tempted by Satan and also when He exchanged views with the Chief Priests and their lawyers. In each of those examples Jesus answered their quoting of scripture by declaring Have you not also heard and went on to quote other scripture that constructed a completely different (consolidated) conclusion. He taught us one cant pick and choose stand-alone excerpts from the bible without verifying them with the balance and consensus of everything else taught about the same subject. Not to believe that is to endorse another Ole Wives Tale.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 468円

Translated as "that which makes one's life worth living," <em>ikigai</em> has also come to mean that which gives a person happiness. In Japan, where the demographic cohort of elderly citizens is growing, and new modes of living and relationships are revising traditional multigenerational family structures, the elderly experience of <em>ikigai</em> is considered a public health concern. Without a relevant model for meaningful and joyful older age, the increasing older population of Japan must create new cultural forms that center the <em>ikigai</em> that comes from old age.</p> <p>In <em>Making Meaningful Lives</em>, Iza Kaved?ija provides a rich anthropological account of the lives and concerns of older Japanese women and men. Grounded in years of ethnographic fieldwork at two community centers in Osaka, Kaved?ija offers an intimate narrative analysis of the existential concerns of her active, independent subjects. Alone and in groups, the elderly residents of these communities make sense of their lives and shifting <em>ikigai</em> with humor, conversation, and storytelling. They are as much providers as recipients of care, challenging common images of the elderly as frail and dependent, while illustrating a more complex argument: maintaining independence nevertheless requires cultivating multiple dependences on others. <em>Making Meaningful Lives</em> argues that an anthropology of the elderly is uniquely suited to examine the competing values of dependence and independence, sociality and isolation, intimacy and freedom, that people must balance throughout all of life's stages.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,487円

Old Wives Tales: Living Our Lives - Becoming Ourselves Twenty-Five Women's Stories【電子書籍】[ Peg Elliott Mayo ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Welcome to a gathering of extraordinary old women. Let me be clear, to us old isn't a dirty word. Old is ripe, self-aware, experienced and accomplished.<br /> The youngest you'll meet here is sixty-seven years and the eldest is thirty years her senior. If you saw any of us in the market, you'd probably offer to help with bags, adapt to a slower pace and open the car door. You might even admonish, "Be careful," as if the evidence before you didn't suggest a responsible driver for longer than you've lived. Sure, some oldsters shouldn't drive, same as some forty-year olds. We know our limits in many dimensions by having tested, learned and applied.<br /> The sense of Self cannot be manufactured. Dignity is as natural as breath and not to be confused with anything hoity-toity. Perspective comes from having a view of the terrain.<br /> Twenty-five of us share our attitudes toward everything from vicissitudes to pleasure, youth, maturity, spirituality, relationships, challenges and, sometimes, unwarranted exuberance. For the fortunate, with sufficient means, health, relationships and insight, age is fulfilling. Those less fortunate must inspire our compassionate respect and help with their troubles.<br /> My choices, writing and editing shaped the loaf. I have chosen to classify Old Wives as a work of fiction based strongly on the factual material thirty women (and couple of men) have provided.<br /> This is not just my book: it is our book. Thank you (choose as many that apply) ladies, mothers, daughters, wives, lovers, leaders, creators, mischief-makers, religious, rebels, lesbians, chairpersons, followers, husbands and partners. Select as many adjectives as suits your need for definition. We are as multifaceted as the finest diamonds. To see who we were, examine the cover.<br /> Had I been born two hundred years ago, I would have been an Irish shenache. A storyteller. The sighs, laughs, groans of the neighbors gathered on a chilly night would have nourished us all and made me useful in old age to family and neighbors.<br /> Here are the Old Wives, and a couple of good men, who have trusted their life learning to your reading.<br /> May ye be in h'aven before the divil knows yer dead!<br /> Peg Elliott Mayo</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 718円

El caso de la vestal enamorada【電子書籍】[ Ray Collins ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>En el a?o 13 d.C. durante las fiestas en honor de Vesta, la diosa guardiana del fuego de los hogares de Roma, servida por v?rgenes vestales, ocurre un crimen pasional que involucra a familiares cercanos al Emperador y a su c?lebre tercera esposa, Livia Drusila. Ambos, que hab?an ordenado una boda sin amor, sin advertirlo, decretaron la muerte de la joven m?s bella de la ciudad, amenazando con desatar el esc?ndalo m?s funesto para la hipocres?a de la alta sociedad romana. En la b?squeda del asesino y de cubrir las apariencias, se recurre a un esclavo egipcio, propiedad de un Prefecto romano, cuyas pretendidas dotes de videncia y brujer?a lo terminan convirtiendo en el m?s perfecto chivo expiatorio para enterrar la verdad de lo sucedido. El improvisado detective, atrapado sin remedio entre amenazas, sospechas y perversidades sexuales, halla, sin embargo, las respuestas desnudando el Templo de las V?rgenes hasta destapar la raz?n del misterio de su oscura existencia. Unidos por la com?n fascinaci?n por las lecciones de la Historia, Ray Collins y el profesor Juan Pablo Alfaro revelan en <em>El caso de la vestal enamorada</em> el d?a a d?a de la curiosamente desolada vida en la Roma imperial.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,300円
