 The Rebellion in the Cevennes (Vol. 1&2) Historical Novel (Complete Edition)【電子書籍】[ Ludwig Tieck ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞The Rebellion in the Cevennes is a historical novel that features the life of the young Edmond de Beauvais, who turned from the zealous Catholic to the Huguenot and fought in the ranks of the Camisards against the troops of the Catholic king. Camisards were French Protestants of the rugged and isolated C?vennes region and the Vaunage in southern France. In the early 1700s, they raised an insurrection against the persecutions which followed Louis XIV's Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, making Protestantism illegal. The revolt broke out in 1702, with the worst of the fighting continuing until 1704, then skirmishes until 1710 and a final peace by 1715. "The candles were already lighted, when Edmond stood before a large house, undecided if he should enter or not; "she has company again, the same as ever," said he to himself; "and how shall I in my dusty shooting-dress present myself among well-dressed ladies? However, she is kind and indulgent, I am at a distance from home, the strangers too are already accustomed to this in me." He ascended and laid down his gun and pouch in the anti-chamber, the servant ushered him in, and he found only a small circle, the young lady's two old aunts and a few younger ladies of the town of Nismes, established at two card tables and entertained, as usual, by an old Captain. They were relating to one another the defeat of the Camisards on the preceding day, and how they had assembled again, and how their leaders had escaped."＜/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。 | 150円 |
 The Holy War (Historical Novel)【電子書籍】[ John Bunyan ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞John Bunyan's 'The Holy War' is a historical novel that intricately weaves theological allegory with the context of 17th-century England. Written in Bunyan's characteristic prose style, the book explores the Christian struggle for salvation through the metaphor of a city besieged by the forces of the devil. Bunyan's vivid descriptions and detailed characterizations enrich the narrative, making it a compelling read for both literary enthusiasts and theologians. The book's allegorical nature draws parallels to Bunyan's most famous work, 'The Pilgrim's Progress,' showcasing the author's mastery in blending spiritual themes with engaging storytelling. John Bunyan, a Puritan preacher and writer, drew inspiration from his own religious experiences and beliefs to craft 'The Holy War.' As a figure deeply entrenched in the religious and political turmoil of his time, Bunyan uses his literary talents to convey his thoughts on faith, sin, and redemption through the lens of fiction. I recommend 'The Holy War' to readers interested in exploring the complexities of religious allegory and the historical context of 17th-century England. John Bunyan's insightful narrative offers a unique perspective on spiritual warfare and the eternal battle between good and evil.＜/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。 | 300円 |

 ZADIG - The Book of Faith (Illustrated) Historical Novel - A Story from Ancient Babylonia【電子書籍】[ Voltaire ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This carefully crafted ebook: "ZADIG - The Book of Faith (Illustrated)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Zadig or The Book of Fate is a famous novel and work of philosophical fiction written by Enlightenment philosopher Voltaire. It tells the story of Zadig, a philosopher in ancient Babylonia. Disillusioned with women, Zadig turns to science but his knowledge lands him in prison. Upon his release from prison, Zadig rises in favour with the king and queen of Babylonia and is eventually appointed prime minister, but he is forced to flee the kingdom after his love for queen Astart? is discovered. Having reached Egypt, Zadig kills an Egyptian man while valiantly saving a woman from the attack and this crime means that he must become a slave. After earning his freedom, he begins his journey back to Babylonia in order to discover what has become of Astart? and he is taken captive by a group of Arabs, from whom he learns that king Moabdar has been killed. On his return, the final part of the challenge to be king is taking place. The author does not attempt any historical accuracy, and some of the problems Zadig faces are thinly disguised references to social and political problems of Voltaire's own day. It is philosophical in nature, and presents human life as in the hands of a destiny beyond human control. Fran?ois-Marie Arouet (1694-1778), known by his nom de plume Voltaire, was a French Enlightenment writer, historian, and philosopher famous for his wit, his attacks on the established Catholic Church, and his advocacy of freedom of religion, freedom of expression, and separation of church and state. As a satirical polemicist, he frequently made use of his works to criticize intolerance, religious dogma, and the French institutions of his day.＜/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。 | 300円 |

 The Commonitory For the Antiquity and Universality of the Catholic Faith Against the Profane Novelties of All Heresies【電子書籍】[ St. Vincent of L?rins ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Very little is known of the author of the following Treatise. He writes under the assumed name of Peregrinus, but Gennadius of Marseilles, who flourished a.d. 495, some sixty years after its date, ascribes it to Vincentius, an inmate of the famous monastery of L?rins, in the island of that name, and his ascription has been universally accepted.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Vincentius was of Gallic nationality. In earlier life he had been engaged in secular pursuits, whether civil or military is not clear, though the term he uses, “secularis militia,” might possibly imply the latter. He refers to the Council of Ephesus, held in the summer and early autumn of 431, as having been held some three years previously to the time at which he was writing “ante triennium ferme.” This gives the date of the Commonitory 434. Cyril, bishop of Alexandria, was still living. Sixtus the Third had succeeded to the See of Rome; his predecessor, Celestine, having died in 432. Gennadius says that Vincentius died, “Theodosio et Valentiniano regnantibus.” Theodosius died, leaving Valentinian still reigning, in July, 450. Vincentius’ death, therefore, must have occurred in or before that year.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Baronius places his name in the Roman Martyrology, Tillemont doubts whether with sufficient reason.7 He is commemorated on the 24th of May.＜/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。 | 100円 |
