Choosing Death Suicide and Calvinism in Early Modern Geneva【電子書籍】[ Jeffrey R. Watt ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In this case study of the Republic of Geneva, Jeffrey R. Watt convincingly argues the early modern era marked decisive change in the history of suicide. His analysis of criminal proceedings and death records shows that magistrates of the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries often imposed penalties against the bodies and estates of those who took their lives. According to beliefs shared by theologian John Calvin, magistrates, and common folk, self-murder was caused by demon possession. Similar views and practices were found among both Protestants and Catholics throughout Reformation Europe. By contrast, in the late eighteenth century many philosophies defended the right to take one's life under certain circumstances; Geneva’s magistrates in effect decriminalized suicide; and even commoners blamed suicide on mental illness or personal reversals, not on satanic influences.</p> <p>Watt uses Geneva's uniquely rich and well-organized sources in this first study to provide reliable evidence on suicide rates for premodern Europe. He places his findings within a wide range of historical and sociological scholarship, and while suicide was rare through the seventeenth century, he shows that Geneva experienced an explosion in self-inflicted deaths after 1750. Quite simply, early modern Geneva witnessed nothing less than the birth of modern suicide both in attitudes toward itーthoroughly secularized, medicalized, and stripped of diabolical undertonesーand the frequency of it.</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。

Great and Horrible News: Murder and Mayhem in Early Modern Britain【電子書籍】[ Blessin Adams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>‘Grimly fascinating … engrossing’ <em>Daily Mail</em></p> <p><strong>NINE HISTORIC CRIMES. ONE FAMILIAR OBSESSION.</strong></p> <p><strong>In early modern England, murder truly was most foul.</strong> Trials were gossipy events packed to the rafters with noisome spectators. Executions were public proceedings which promised not only gore, but desperate confessions and the grandest, most righteous human drama. Bookshops saw grisly stories of crime and death sell like hot cakes.</p> <p>This history unfolds the true stories of murder, criminal investigation, early forensic techniques, high court trials and so much more.</p> <p>In thrilling narrative, we follow a fugitive killer through the streets of London, citizen detectives clamouring to help officials close the net. We untangle the mystery of a suspected staged suicide through the newly emerging science of forensic pathology. We see a mother trying to clear her dead daughter’s name while other women faced the accusations ? sometimes true and sometimes not ? of murdering their own children.</p> <p>These stories are pieced together from original research using coroner’s inquests, court records, parish archives, letters, diaries and the cheap street pamphlets that proliferated to satisfy a voracious public.</p> <p>These intensely personal stories portray the lives of real people as they confronted the extraordinary crises of murder, infanticide, miscarriage and suicide. Many historical laws and attitudes concerning death and murder may strike us as exceptionally cruel, and yet many still remind us that some things never change: we are still fascinated by narratives of murder and true crime, murder trials today continue to be grand public spectacles, female killers are frequently cast as aberrant objects of public hatred and sexual desire, and suicide remains a sin within many religious organisations and was a crime in England until the 1960s.</p> <p><em>Great and Horrible News!</em> explores the strange history of death and murder in early modern England, yet the stories within may appear shockingly familiar.</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。

Dismantling the American Dream How Multinational Corporations Undermine American Prosperity【電子書籍】[ Michael Collins ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>This book is not an academic treatise. It is a concise story that tells what America’s multinationals did to the U.S. economy and how they did it. It is an applied and actionable book which includes many suggested solutions that function as steps the reader can take in their company.</strong></p> <p>This book is based on a promise made by multinationals in 2018 when 181 CEOs signed a commitment letter to lead their companies not just for the benefit of their investors, <em>but for the benefit of all stakeholders: customers, employees, suppliers, communities, and shareholders</em>.</p> <p>During the last 40 years, the American dream has been dismantled by the policies and decisions of the multinational corporations (MNCs). <strong>Instead of benefitting all stake holders, they chose to favor their shareholders over all stake holders and short-term profits over society and country</strong>. To begin this process of change to achieve these new commitments, they must first understand what corporations did wrong since 1980 that didn’t benefit the other stakeholders.</p> <p>This book will provide managers a detailed summary of the problems and obstacles they will need to address and overcome if they are going to make good on their commitment to meet the needs of all stakeholders, including employees, suppliers, communities, and an economy that serves all Americans. It also offers many solutions that will help them improve their job performance.</p> <p><strong>It is in the interest of America’s multinationals to find ways to protect their technologies, reduce outsourcing, and shift their focus to playing in a long-term economic game if they want to be competitive in the future.</strong></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。

The Sacred Architecture of Byzantium Art, Liturgy and Symbolism in Early Christian Churches【電子書籍】[ Nicholas N. Patricios ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The churches of the Byzantine era were built to represent heaven on earth. Architecture, art and liturgy were intertwined in them to a degree that has never been replicated elsewhere, and the symbolism of this relationship had deep and profound meanings. Sacred buildings and their spiritual art underpinned the Eastern liturgical rites, which in turn influenced architectural design and the decoration which accompanied it. Nicholas N Patricios here offers a comprehensive survey, from the age of Constantine to the fall of Constantinople, of the nexus between buildings, worship and art. His identification of seven distinct Byzantine church types, based on a close analysis of 370 church building plans, will have considerable appeal to Byzantinists, lay and scholarly. Beyond categorizing and describing the churches themselves, which are richly illustrated with photographs, plans and diagrams, the author interprets the sacred liturgy that took place within these holy buildings, tracing the development of the worship in conjunction with architectural advances made up to the 15th century.<br /> Focusing on buildings located in twenty-two different locations, this sumptuous book is an essential guide to individual features such as the synthronon, templon and ambo and also to the wider significance of Byzantine art and architecture.</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。

A Copper Harvest; or, The Boys who Worked a Deserted Mine A Tale of Friendship, Perseverance, and Copper Adventures【電子書籍】[ Self-made man ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "A Copper Harvest; or, The Boys who Worked a Deserted Mine," the self-styled author weaves a compelling narrative set against the backdrop of the American West's mining boom. Through a blend of adventure and youthful determination, this tale chronicles the trials and triumphs of a group of boys as they embark on a quest to revive an abandoned mine. The author employs a vivid, descriptive literary style, rich in dialogue and regional vernacular, which serves to immerse the reader in the harsh realities of mining life while also accentuating themes of resilience, camaraderie, and the pursuit of dreams in a rugged environment. The book reflects the cultural ethos of the late 19th century, when American society was fascinated by the allure of self-made success amid untamed landscapes. The identity of the self-made man behind this imaginative work is rooted in an environment characterized by self-reliance and industriousness. Influenced by the frontier spirit, the author likely drew inspiration from tales of his own experiences or those within his community who faced adversity with grit and inventiveness. This personal connection to the world of mining and the struggles of youth imbues the narrative with authenticity and depth, highlighting the transformative power of determination and teamwork. For readers who enjoy gripping tales of adventure and the spirit of youthful enterprise, "A Copper Harvest" offers a rich exploration of the human condition against an exhilarating backdrop. It is a timeless reminder of the potential that lies within each individual, making it not only an entertaining read but also an inspiring one, inviting readers to reflect on their own aspirations and the collective endeavors that define their journeys.</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。

<p><em>That one word has never meant so much.</em></p> <p><strong>Jana</strong><br /> Ballet was my life, but after getting injured, that dream faded. I still needed fast money, so I sucked up my pride and decided to strip. Clubs could use a virgin stripper, right? But from the moment I saw Cole Savage, owner of the strip club I was trying to get in to, all rational thought left me. He was dark and dangerous, and his personality screamed arrogance. I wanted him, and by the way he looked at me, I knew he wanted me as well. But I should keep it strictly business. That's what I told myself anyway.</p> <p><strong>Cole</strong><br /> From the moment I first saw Jana, I wanted her. She needed a job at my club, but the possessive side of me rose up, demanding she was only mine. I might have just met her, but I was already so damn territorial of her. If she wanted a job, I'd give her one, but she'd be keeping her clothes on. I'd been celibate for years, but it was time to change that with her. Jana would soon realize what it meant to be mine.</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。

Retelling the Siege of Jerusalem in Early Modern England【電子書籍】[ Vanita Neelakanta ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This compelling book explores sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English retellings of the Roman siege of Jerusalem and the way they informed and were informed by religious and political developments. The siege featured prominently in many early modern English sermons, ballads, plays, histories, and pamphlets, functioning as a touchstone for writers who sought to locate their own national drama of civil and religious tumult within a larger biblical and post-biblical context. Reformed England identified with besieged Jerusalem, establishing an equivalency between the Protestant church and the ancient Jewish nation but exposing fears that a displeased God could destroy his beloved nation. As print culture grew, secular interpretations of the siege ran alongside once-dominant providentialist narratives and spoke to the political anxieties in England as it was beginning to fashion a conception of itself as a nation.</p> <p>Published by University of Delaware Press.

Conflict Minerals, Inc. War, Profit and White Saviourism in Eastern Congo【電子書籍】[ Christoph N. Vogel ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In the twenty-first century, the relationship between violent conflict and natural resources has become a matter of intense public and academic debate. As a result of fervent activism and international campaigning, the flagship case of ‘conflict minerals’ has captured global attention. This term groups together the artisanal tin, tantalum (coltan), tungsten and gold originating from war zones in Central Africa.</p> <p>Known as ‘digital minerals’ for their use in high-end technology, their exploitation and trade has been singled out in numerous media and United Nations reports as a key driver of violence, provoking an unprecedented popular outcry and prompting transnational efforts to promote ‘conflict-free’, ethical mining. Focusing on the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo,*Conflict Minerals, Inc.*is the first comprehensive analysis of this phenomenon.</p> <p>Based on meticulous investigation and long-term fieldwork, this book analyses why the campaign against ‘unethical’ mining went awry, and radically disrupted eastern Congo’s political economy. It dissects the evolution of the conflict minerals paradigm, the policy responses it triggered and their impact on artisanal miners. Vogel demonstrates how Western advocacy and policy have relied on colonial frames to drive change, and how White Saviourism perpetuates structural violence and inequality across global supply and value chains.</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。

Art, Patronage, and Nepotism in Early Modern Rome【電子書籍】[ Karen J. Lloyd ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Drawing on rich archival research and focusing on works by leading artists including Guido Reni and Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Karen J. Lloyd demonstrates that cardinal nephews in seventeenth-century Rome ? those nephews who were raised to the cardinalate as princes of the Church ? used the arts to cultivate more than splendid social status.</p> <p>Through politically savvy frescos and emotionally evocative displays of paintings, sculptures, and curiosities, cardinal nephews aimed to define nepotism as good Catholic rule. Their commissions took advantage of their unique position close to the pope, embedding the defense of their role into the physical fabric of authority, from the storied vaults of the Vatican Palace to the sensuous garden villas that fused business and pleasure in the Eternal City. This book uncovers how cardinal nephews crafted a seductively potent dialogue on the nature of power, fuelling the development of innovative visual forms that championed themselves as the indispensable heart of papal politics.</p> <p>The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, early modern studies, religious history, and political history.</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。

Walk through Fire The Train Disaster that Changed America【電子書籍】[ Yasmine Ali, M.D. ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>In the tradition of the bestselling <em>Chesapeake Requiem</em>, WALK THROUGH FIRE is the first book to examine the Waverly Train Disaster of 1978, its impact on the rural community of Waverly, Tennessee, and its impact on the United States, as it catalyzed the formation of FEMA. Coinciding with the 45th anniversary of the event, this book is a tribute to the first responders, as well as an examination of the strengths and vulnerabilities in rural America.</strong></p> <p>On the night of February 22, 1978, a devastating freight train derailment drastically altered Waverly, Tennessee, and its place in history. This was one of the worst train explosions of the twentieth century, killing 16 people, injuring hundreds more, and causing millions of dollars in damage.</p> <p>What could have been dismissed as a single community’s terrible misfortune instead became the catalyst for radical change, including the formation of FEMA, much-needed reforms in emergency response training, and the creation and enforcement of national and state safety regulations. Response to the disaster reshaped American infrastructure and laid the groundwork for the future of emergency management and disaster relief . . . and yet most Americans have never heard of Waverly.</p> <p>Dr. Yasmine S. Ali, an award-winning medical writer and Waverly native, sets out to change this in <em>Walk Through Fire</em>, drawing from over a decade of meticulous research and interviews with survivors, first responders, and other firsthand accounts, including those of her own parents, first-generation Americans who were on call at the local hospital that treated the victims. Ali weaves a compelling narrative of small-town tragedy set against the broader backdrop of U.S. railroad history, rural healthcare, and other elements of American infrastructure that played a part in the creationーand the aftermathーof the Disaster.</p> <p>A tribute to resiliency and a call to action, <em>Walk Through Fire</em> tells the harrowing story of the Waverly Train Disaster from the perspectives of those who survived it, and those who still feel its impact today, illuminating how much a nation still has to learn from one small town in Tennessee.</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。

La grande storia di Paul McCartney【電子書籍】[ Carmine Aymone ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Pubblicato in occasione dell’ottantesimo compleanno di Paul McCartney, il libro racconta la vita e la carriera del musicista inglese: dagli esordi a Liverpool alla gavetta delle notti di Amburgo, dal successo travolgente dei Beatles allo scioglimento dei Fab Four. Ma anche dalla costituzione dei Wings alla straordinaria affermazione come solista, fino alle grandi sfide creative della sua lunghissima carriera, passando per i dischi di musica classica e la trance music, le mostre di arte figurativa, il cinema di animazione, la scrittura e le colonne sonore per sfilate e videogiochi. L’omicidio di John Lennon ha diffuso un luogo comune: “Lennon era il genio dei Beatles, l’unico sperimentatore della band”. A oltre quarant’anni da allora si pu? affermare che quel “dogma” appare quanto meno riduttivo e, senza nulla togliere alla straordinariet? artistica di John, ? arrivato il momento di riconoscere senza alcun dubbio che anche Paul McCartney ? un genio. L’opera testimonia inoltre le straordinarie avventure live di Sir Paul, dal Live Aid del 1985 alle Olimpiadi del 2012, fino alle grandi collaborazioni con artisti come Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Elvis Costello, Kanye West, Dave Grohl, Jeff Lynne, Tony Bennett, David Gilmour, George Michael e moltissimi altri. Paul McCartney ? stato un’autentica leggenda vivente del rock e questa ? la sua storia.</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。
