The Commentary of Albertus Magnus on Book 1 of Euclid's Elements of Geometry
"The Commentary of Albertus Magnus on Book I of Euclid's Elements of Geometry" is the third in Lo Bello's series on the Elements. Lo Bello provides the first modern translation of a key Latin text of the Elements in the Middle Ages, the commentary of the Dominican scholastic philosopher Albertus Magnus (d.1280), the teacher of Thomas Aquinas. The volume includes a translation, notes on the translation, and a critical examination of the mathematical content of the three commentaries on Euclid's Elements of Geometry thus far treated in this series.

Magnus Felix Ennodius (474-521), deacon of Milan and bishop of Pavia in the turbulent years after the fall of the Roman Empire in the West, was a prolific writer of letters, poetry, speeches, and pamphlets on the controversies that beset the church in his day. In the Middle Ages, he was read as a model of style and source of canon law. More recently, however, Ennodius' writings have been denigrated as the vapid product of a frivolous mind more concerned with form than content. Magnus Felix Ennodius: A Gentleman of the Church sets the record straight by restoring Ennodius to his social and literary context. Ennodius stands revealed as a man on the cusp of the ancient and medieval worlds, his thought still shaped according to classical norms, but his writings informed with a sensibility that prefigures that of the Christian Middle Ages. As the only book-length study of Ennodius, here the author explores all aspects of Ennodius' life and literary production to augment the collective understanding of him on two major fronts, rhetoric and meaning, so that he can take his place as an important author and historical figure. Deeply insightful, and refreshingly original, the author breaks new ground in studying this period of history, so often overshadowed by the classical and middle ages that immediately precede and succeed it.S.

It has been a rough winter, heath-wise. Nancy is looking for a dog to help her get out, meet people, and get her life back. A friend who breeds some kind of big dog has her meet one of her seniors, and asks if she'd like to take him home on trial. Nancy thinks he's adorable and says yes. Her neighbors don't think he's so adorable. Probably because he lunges and snarls and barks at them. Evidently Nancy is going to have to learn how to manage a big alpha guy. She's also going to have to learn a lot about elder care-fast. But who cares? She's already in love. "This is a moving, funny, sad, and revealing story about a great, life-changing friendship. Yes, one of the friends is a dog. That doesn't matter..." Lisa Gluskin "A lot of fun to read." Sherry W. "...any easy sentimentality is relieved by Bernard's wit, wry self-knowledge and wads of acquired insight on caring for canines." Barbara Amiel Black
