"Where shall I start?" asked Minotaur.Ovid made an expansive gesture with both hands. "Where else but the beginning of course."Minotaur nodded his huge head. "Yes," he said. "Yes," his eyes already glazing over with the weight of thousand year old memories.And then he began.So begins the story of Asterion, later known as Minotaur, the supposed half bull creature of Greek legend. Recorded by the famous Roman poet, Ovid, Asterion tells of his boyhood in Crete under the cruel hand of his stepfather Minos, his adventures with his friend, Theseus, and his growing love for the beautiful Phaedra.And of course what really happened in the labyrinth.This is the true story of the Minotaur.

Loyalty has no limits. Raised from a pup by Greek hero, Odysseus, Argos has come to learn the true meaning of love and loyalty. Little does he know that when Odysseus leaves for the Trojan War it will be 20 years before Argos will see his master again. With Odysseus gone, his wife, Penelope, and son, Telemachus, are easy prey for neighboring kings and the Gods themselves. But Argos was tasked to keep them safe until Odysseus returns and that is a promise he is determined to keep-whatever the cost. Told through his eyes, Argos recounts the story of his life-his pain, his joy, his triumphs and failures; his endurance in the face of hardships that are almost too great to believe. Above all else, Argos strives to do what is right, to remain loyal to his King when all others have given up hope, and to live long enough to see his beloved master one more time. This epic myth of love and loyalty proves that a dog really is man's best friend.

Zeus, Father of Gods and men, god of sky and thunder, the Cloud-gatherer, wielder of the mighty thunderbolt.But once, long ago, Zeus was none of those things. He was a young man, blissfully ignorant of his destiny, content to walk the shores of Crete by day and sleep in a cave at night, watched over by his foster mother, the nymph, Almathea. Aided by his cousins, the Titan Prometheus and beautiful Metis, Zeus learns that he is a wanted man and that his brothers and sisters are held captive. His father, the dread Titan King Cronus, wants him dead. Zeus has no choice but to end his isolation and embark on a quest to free his family before Cronus finds him. Their journey will take them to the starlit heavens, the crushing depths of the oceans and to the darkest, bleakest pit of Tartarus itself. There, Zeus will seek to fulfil a prophecy and commit an act condemned by both gods and men for all eternity: To destroy his own father.

The Story of a Great Medieval Book

The Story of a Great Medieval Book

Philipp W. Rosemann

Broadview Press Ltd
2007
pokkari
Peter Lombard, a twelfth-century theologian, authored one of the first Western textbooks of theology, the Book of Sentences. Here, Lombard logically arranged all of the major topics of the Christian faith. His Book of Sentences received the largest number of commentaries among all works of Christian literature except for Scripture itself. Now, notable Lombard scholar Philipp W. Rosemann examines this text as a guiding thread to studying Christian thought throughout the later Middle Ages and into early modern times. This is the second title in a series called Rethinking the Middle Ages, which is committed to re-examining the Middle Ages, its themes, institutions, people, and events with short studies that will provoke discussion among students and medievalists, and invite them to think about the middle ages in new and unusual ways. The series editor, Paul Edward Dutton, invites suggestions and submissions.
Gratia non tollit naturam

Gratia non tollit naturam

Philipp W. Rosemann

ST AUGUSTINE'S PRESS

In this short volume, Phillip Rosemann sets out to articulate the structures of Catholic existence in terms adapted from contemporary philosophy. Using a concept from the last works of Michel Foucault, Rosemann focuses on the liturgy as a "technology of the self." Through language, the liturgy "makes" the world in which the believer lives. But whereas modern philosophers hold that the human mind imposes its structures upon reality, the liturgical self exists in accordance with a cosmin order that stems from the Word. If one dialogue partner is Michel Foucault, the other is Joseph Ratzinger, the late Pope Benedict XVI. Although this pairing may seem surprising, two facts suggest its fruitfulness. First, scholars now speak of a "Christian turn" in the late Foucault, a thinker often denounced - falsely - as the epitome of philosophical decadence. Second, as one of the leading liturgists of our time, Ratzinger incorporated crucial insights from modern philosophy into his liturgical theology. In relation to Ratzinger, too, moreover, some clichés need to be corrected. In the resulting dialogue between Foucault and Ratzinger, the reader discovers what is the specific mode of existence of the "liturgical subject," and how Catholic time and space are constituted liturgically. In the end, the Thomistic adage gratia non tollit naturam turns out to be an excellent way of summarizing how the liturgical subject relates to the cosmos: not by destroying it, but by listening to the words of creation and perfecting them. The University of Dallas Aquinas Lecture for 2024, Gratia non tollit naturam is published here with an introduction by Fr. James Lehrberger, OCist.
Hitler's Bandit Hunters

Hitler's Bandit Hunters

Potomac Books Inc

In August 1942, Hitler directed all German state institutions to assist Heinrich Himmler, the chief of the SS and the German police, in eradicating armed resistance in the newly occupied territories of Eastern Europe and Russia. The directive for "combating banditry" (Bandenbekämpfung), became the third component of the Nazi regime's three-part strategy for German national security, with genocide (Endlösung der Judenfrage, or "the Final Solution of the Jewish Question") and slave labor (Erfassung, or "Registration of Persons to Hard Labor") being the better-known others.An original and thought-provoking work grounded in extensive research in German archives, Hitler's Bandit Hunters focuses on this counterinsurgency campaign, the anvil of Hitler's crusade for empire. Bandenbekämpfung portrayed insurgents as political and racial bandits, criminalized to a greater degree than enemies of the state; moreover, violence against them was not constrained by the prevailing laws of warfare. Philip Blood explains how German forces embraced the Bandenbekämpfung doctrine, demonstrating the equal culpability of both the SS police forces and the "heroic" Waffen-SS combat arm and shattering the contrived postwar distinctions between them. He challenges the traditional view of Himmler as an armchair general and bureaucrat, exposing him as the driving force behind one of the most successful security campaigns in history, and delves into the contentious issue of the complicity of ordinary German police, soldiers, and citizens, as well as the citizens of occupied territories, in these state-sponsored manhunts. This book provokes new debates on the Nazi terrorization of Europe, the blind acquiescence of many, and the courageous resistance of the few.

The 1619 Project Myth

The 1619 Project Myth

Phillip W. Magness

Independent Institute

"There is no one better to pick apart the disastrous 1619 Project than Phil Magness. If every classroom that incorporated the 1619 Project into its curriculum replaced it with this book, the country would be better off." --Coleman Hughes Slavery is part of America's story--its greatest shame. But abolition is part of America's story, too. Ignoring the latter isn't just bad scholarship. It's brazen deceit. And more often than not, it's done for political reasons. But that didn't seem to bother the writers at the New York Times when they launched the 1619 Project in August 2019. Advertised as a journalistic deep dive on the history of slavery, the series promised thematic explorations on a number of topics ranging from the first slave ship's arrival in Jamestown, Virginia, in 1619, to the present day. Independent Institute Senior Fellow and David J. Theroux Chair Phillip W. Magness was intrigued. What he found, though, was something else entirely. To say he was disappointed is putting it mildly. The 1619 Project was riddled with partisan hysteria, sloppy "scholarship," blatant errors of fact and interpretation, and, above all else, an anti-capitalist ideological agenda to make the case for tearing down our free market economy. Worse still, its transformation from intellectual debate to political dogma poisoned discourse on the right and the left. Angry Twitter mobs canceled and called for the censoring of all critics. Civil discourse and rational thinking became almost impossible. Almost impossible. Thankfully, The 1619 Project Myth boldly sounds the alarm on the New York Times' outright ideological warfare against American history. It's the essential guide to the many lies, distortions, and propaganda peddled by the 1619 Project and its defenders. Magness' writing is cool, calm, collected, and firm. An acclaimed academic and historian in his own right, he debunks and dismantles every myth and blunder of the 1619 Project, including: how the 1619 Project's creator Nikole Hannah-Jones twisted history into shallow political propaganda (just in time for election season); why the Project's activist defenders rely on sneering derision instead of historical facts; why capitalism is not racist ... and, in fact, helped free the slaves; why reparations are a moral and logistical dead end; how the American Historical Association fumbled a chance to protect its institutional integrity and defend real scholarship; how Hannah-Jones responded to her critics by ignoring their corrections and making her message even more partisan, political, and anti-capitalist; and so much more... In these pages, Magness delivers a long-overdue rebuke to "scholars" who treat history as a political weapon. History isn't a tool for scoring points. It's a long, complicated, and morally nuanced story that demands humility, intelligence, and moral courage from every scholar who dares plumb its depths. This is a must-read book on slavery, freedom, and the true American story.
