Best Detective Stories of Cyril Hare

Best Detective Stories of Cyril Hare

Cyril Hare

Faber Faber
2008
nidottu
These thirty stories, selected and introduced by fellow crime writer and lawyer Michael Gilbert, are a terrific introduction to Cyril Hare's inventive and clever Golden Age detective fiction, which often turns on an ingenious use of the law. Born in 1900, Hare was a barrister and judge and only began writing at the age of thirty-six. Some of his first short stories were published in Punch and he went on to write nine novels including his most famous, Tragedy at Law. Two of the stories in this collection feature Francis Pettigrew, a barrister and amateur detective who appeared in several of Hare's novels and was perhaps his best-loved creation.'Dazzlingly ingenious.' Sunday Times 'Of Cyril Hare's detective stories my only complaint is, that they are too infrequent.' Tatler'A master of the short story.' Spectator'Neat, taut and sufficiently dipped in irony to give a sharp tang to the quirks of love and life.' Glasgow Herald

Cyril Connolly

Cyril Connolly

Jeremy Lewis

Pimlico
1998
pokkari
`In one of tje funniest biographies I have ever read, Lewis assembles all the excellently entertaining anecdotes about this deeply loved, much mocked, sometimes reviled figure whose departure has robbed the litarary world of its social smartness and any worthwhile eccentricity . . . [An] excellent, wildly funny and informative biography. `Auberon Waugh, Literary Review. Precociously brilliant in his youth, Cyril Connolly was haunted for the rest of his life by a sense of failure and a romatic yearning to recover a lost Eden. His two great books, The Unquiet Grave and Enemies of Promise, are classics of English prose, combining wit, romanticism and merciless self-knowledge. As witty in person as he as in his prose, he was notoriously slothful and greedy; he was married three times, abd his dealings with women were bedevilled by a lifelong tendency to be in love with two or more people at once.

The Works of Saint Cyril of Jerusalem, Volume 2

The Works of Saint Cyril of Jerusalem, Volume 2

Cyril; Leo P. McCauley

The Catholic University of America Press
2000
nidottu
Cyril of Jerusalem, Bishop of the Holy City in the middle of the fourth century, delivered eighteen catechetical lectures during Lent to his candidates for baptism at Easter; actually, there were nineteen including the preliminary instruction, or Procatechesis. An earlier volume of the Fathers of the Church series contains the preliminary material and the first twelve lectures. The present volume contains Catechetical Lectures 13-18 and Cyril's five Mystagogical Catecheses, which, delivered during the week after Easter, describe and explain the rites of Baptism, Chrismation, and Eucharist, all of which Cyril's newly baptized adult listeners have just experienced. In addition, this volume includes Cyril's only extant sermon (on the paralytic of John 5) and a letter to the newly crowned Emperor Constantius, in which Cyril interprets the apparition of a shining cross in the sky over Jerusalem.

Cyril of Jerusalem, Mystagogue v. 17

Cyril of Jerusalem, Mystagogue v. 17

Alexis James Doval

2001

After centuries of unresolved dispute over the question of whether the Mystagogic Catecheses belongs among the works of St. Cyril of Jerusalem, this book finally settles the controversy. These post-baptismal Easter sermons are a prized witness to the way the rites of initiation (baptism, confirmation, and Eucharist) were celebrated in fourth-century. Jerusalem and for the rich sacramental theology they contain. Uncertain authorship has prevented the text from being fully appreciated as an integral part of Cyril's works. Cyril's reputation as a catechist is time-honored, and his Baptismal Catecheses has served as an invaluable source of early Church doctrine and practice. Scholars can now confidently include the mystagogic sermons in their study of Cyril's doctrinal and sacramental theology and practice. This study addresses much more than the question of authorship. A thorough examination of the Mystagogic Catecheses in conjunction with Cyril's Baptismal Catecheses provides a new view into his life and thought as both catechist and mystagogue. It begins with a survey of those aspects of Cyril's life and his Jerusalem church that are relevant to reassessing the authorship of the Mystagogic Catecheses. It then examines the text's manuscript tradition, literary tradition, and date. There follows the most extensive section, a comparative analysis of the disputed sermons and Cyril's Baptismal Catecheses in the areas of liturgical rites, theology, spirituality, and literary style. The text is then compared to the known works of the contending author, John Il of Jerusalem. Finally, the sermons are subjected to a stylometric analysis, that is, a computer-based statistical analysis of literary style. This book will be welcomed by scholars of early Christianity, especially those interested in the life and works of Cyril of Jerusalem. Of special interest is its treatment of the history and development of liturgy in the Christian East through the fourth century. This is the first volume in the Patristic Monograph Series of the North American Patristic Society to be published by the Catholic University of America Press.

Cyril and Methodius of Thessalonica

Cyril and Methodius of Thessalonica

T Anthony–emil

St Vladimir's Seminary Press,U.S.
2001
nidottu
At the height of the tumultuous developments taking place in Central and Eastern Europe in the ninth century, two Greek missionaries from Thessalonica came to the fore. Through their work of acculturation among the Slavs, these brothers Constantine-Cyril and Methodius wrought far-reaching and lasting changes upon European life. This book looks back over the life and work of these two figures and analyzes their ecclesiastical and cultural mission. Life in ninth-century Thessalonica was strongly affected by the presence of Slav raiders presenting a problem for the Empire. To deal with it the Byzantine policymakers devised the Slavonic project and invited the brothers to play a part in it. They embarked upon careers in the service of the Church and the State, undertaking missions of vital importance to both. Their presence in the Crimea was closely bound up with several aspects of Byzantium's ecclesiastical policy and programme of acculturation, as also with the Russians' first encounter with Christianity. Working intensively, Cyril and Methodius created an alphabet for the Slavs and gave them the written word on a high intellectual level. In presenting the Slavs with an alphabet and the written word, the brothers transmitted to them the world; and thus it was in Cyril and Methodius' time, and thanks to their work, that Great Moravia reached the height of its vigour and prosperity as a central European state. The Cyrillo-Methodian tradition lived on, spreading out among the Slavic peoples and laying the foundations of their spiritual life.

My Life as a Newfoundland Union Organizer The Memoirs of Cyril W. Strong 1912-1987

pokkari
Cyril Strong started work at the Hotel Newfoundland in 1928 at the age of 16. During the war, Newfoundland's economy soared, but the hotel employees were poorly paid. He organized a union in 1942, became its President, and skilfully negotiated a wage increase and other benefits for the hotel workers. After serving on the executives of his local union, of the St. John's Trades and Labour Council, and of the Newfoundland Federation of Labour, he became the Newfoundland organizer for the American Federation of Labour (AFL-CIO) in 1948. As Federation organizer, he travelled the province from coast to coast, helping Newfoundland workers form unions. Travel in Newfoundland in the 1945-65 period was no small part of the job, and justified a separate chapter (10) in this book. With the creation of the Canadian Labour Congress in 1956, Strong became a CLC representative. Although not involved directly with the IWA, Cyril saw the dramatic events of the 1959-60 IWA organizing drive and loggers strike from the inside, a story which he recounts here. This led to him to take a brief stint at provincial politics in 1959, running for the newly-formed Newfoundland Democratic Party (NDP), a name which persuaded Tommy Douglas to adopt in 1961 in place of the federal CCF. Cyril Strong gained the respect of supporters and opponents alike during his career, and should rank among the great Newfoundlanders.

Cyril of Alexandria: Against Julian

Cyril of Alexandria: Against Julian

Cambridge University Press
2025
sidottu
In 362/363 the Roman emperor Julian composed a treatise titled Against the Galileans in which he set forth his reasons for abandoning Christianity and returning to devotion to the traditional Greco-Roman deities. Sixty years later Cyril, bishop of Alexandria, composed a response. His resulting treatise Against Julian would dwarf the size of Julian's original work and in fact serves as our primary source for the fragments of it that have survived. Julian's treatise was the most sophisticated critique of Christianity to have been composed in antiquity and Cyril's rebuttal was equally learned. The Christian bishop not only responded directly to Julian's own words but drew upon a wide range of ancient literature, including poetry, history, philosophy, and religious works to undermine the emperor's critiques of the Christian Bible and bolster the intellectual legitimacy of Christian belief and practice. This is the first full translation of the work into English.
