Edith Wharton's haunting classic Ethan Frome is set in a small, isolated town in Massachusetts, exploring the depths of human emotion and the profound impact of choices made in the face of societal constraints. The story revolves around the titular character, Ethan Frome, a worn-down and introverted farmer whose life is bound by duty and responsibility. Trapped in a loveless marriage with his sickly and bitter wife, Zeena, Ethan's life takes an unexpected turn when his cousin, Mattie Silver, arrives to help with household chores. As Mattie's presence breathes new life into Ethan's monotonous existence, a powerful attraction blossoms between them. This volume is part of the Mothers of the Macabre series, celebrating the gothic horror masterpieces of pioneering women writers who played a pivotal role in shaping and advancing the genre. Edith Wharton's masterful prose paints a vivid portrait of the harsh and unforgiving New England landscape, mirroring the emotional turmoil and restraints placed upon her characters. Ethan Frome is an essential read for fans of classic gothic horror.

Antes de que fuera una santa, ella fue una gran filosofa. Pero como era mujer sus contribuciones fueron ignoradas. Este libro plantea la pregunta: " Dio Edith Stein contribuciones importantes a la filosof a, y de ser as , que implicaciones tienen para nosotros hoy?" El libro inicia con una biograf a de Stein hasta cuando su tesis doctoral sobre "El Problema de la Empat a" fue aprobada en 1916. Luego, en una nueva y din mica investigaci n, se demuestra sus contribuciones a la filosof a del siglo veinte como un todo. Finalmente, se analiza el pensamiento feminista de Stein y su conexi n directa con "La Teolog a del Cuerpo" del papa Juan Pablo II. Basado en una galardonada tesis, aqu hay un libro que finalmente va m s all de ver como curiosidad el pensamiento de Stein y que m s bien plantea un fuerte argumento sobre sus contribuciones a la filosof a, feminismo y "La Teor a del Cuerpo".
