This handbook is a short guide for those who are interested in Roman sites that have something to do with the New Testament, and in particular with Peter and Paul. For more than ten years, Dr. Schmisek has led graduate ministry programs in the Eternal City. This book is informed by the questions, insights, and comments from students over those years. While not addressing each and every claimed New Testament artifact in the city of Rome, the handbook focuses on the more significant churches and locales that have a connection to Petrine and Pauline legends: places such as St. Peter's at the Vatican and St. Paul's outside the Walls are included, but also St. Peter's at Montorio and Tre Fontane. There are two primary parts to this book: the first is a brief survey of what is known (and not known) regarding Peter and Paul's time in Rome. The various sources of Pauline and Petrine legends are included in this survey as those legends are key to interpreting many sites and their significance. The second part of the book is more akin to a tour book laid out in four subsections, generally corresponding to geographical areas of the city. This brief handbook will be a valuable guide to those who seek a greater understanding of the historical and legendary background to Petrine and Pauline sites in Rome. ""In Italian we would say 'It is worth its weight in gold.' This idiomatic expression seems to me particularly apt to translate into words what I think of this book, which is the perfect guide for the readers/travelers who want to rediscover their roots in the Roman Christian history. Tolle et lege - and enjoy your journey "" --Edmondo F Lupieri, Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity, John Cardinal Cody Endowed Chair in Theology, Loyola University Chicago, President of ItalCultura ""The author draws on his intimate knowledge of ancient Rome from having taught summer courses in the city for many years. Blending information from many sources into a continuous narrative, he compares biblical, medieval, and scientific material for a many-layered treatment of names, places, and dates. A perfect remembrance of Catholic Rome for students and other serious travelers, it is a book to read twice--once before traveling to Rome, and again in Rome itself."" --Joseph Martos, Aquinas Institute of Theology, St. Louis, Missouri, author of Doors to the Sacred: A Historical Introduction to Sacraments in the Catholic Church ""Brian Schmisek draws upon his years of leading scholarly pilgrimages to Rome to offer his readers a view of the city through the eyes of its most important Saints. This useful introduction to the city is both accessible and scholarly, and makes a wonderful companion for any visit to the Eternal City."" --Theodore James Whapham, Dean, Ann and Joe O. Neuhoff School of Ministry, University of Dallas ""Brian Schmisek's delightful guide to the Rome of New Testament times (especially that of St. Peter and St. Paul) offers a perfect mix of history, biblical interpretation, spirituality, and faith. Intriguing stories, up-to-date scholarship, and literary and archeological background are spun out in Schmisek's easy-to-read narrative voice. A great book for new visitors to Rome or for Christians interested in their past."" --John M. Norris, Associate Professor of Theology, University of Dallas Brian Schmisek is the Dean of the Pastoral Studies Institute at Loyola University Chicago, where he often teaches in the summer program at the John Felice Rome Center.

Capturing all the pain and glory of this incredible family saga, Surf’s Up is the definitive tribute to a remarkable band - and the genius who made it all possible. If any man in pop history deserved the tag of genius, it was Brian Wilson. As leader, producer and chief composer of the Beach Boys, he displayed an instinctive command of melody, harmony and arranging skills. The result was a run of hits that included many of the most sparkling and creative records of the 1960s. But there was a dark side to this seemingly effortless success, rooted in his tortured family background. No sooner had Brian masterminded such gems as the Pet Sounds album and Good Vibrations than his psychological demons began to derail his life. The Beach Boys were left struggling for survival, grasping for salvation from such bizarre figures as TM guru the Maharishi and cult leader Charles Manson. Their story could have ended there, but somehow the band survived. Ahead lay decades of trauma, triumph and tragedy, as the band members all developed as songwriters but also found themselves increasingly at odds with each other. Through it all the music survived, as Brian’s younger brother Dennis Wilson emerged as an equally creative but troubled presence.Surf’s Up sees lifelong Beach Boys fan Peter Doggett capture all the glory and pain of this complex family saga. He celebrates the band’s array of musical gems, and also explores many of their passionate obsessions , from surfing and cars to politics and food. Filled with drama and pathos, Surf’s Up is the ultimate tribute to a remarkable band - and the genius who made it all possible.

I SANG OG BÆGERKLANG fortæller sanger, visevershusholder, sangskriver, julemand og guitarist Peter Vesth om et langt liv i musikkens tjeneste: om op- og nedture, fis og ballade, fup og fidus, røverhistorier og anekdoter (heraf er langt de fleste sande). Alt sammen fortalt af Peter selv i hans velkendte, veloplagte og humoristiske stil.Peter fortæller også om det mere end 30-årige, tætte samarbejde med sin kære bror, Thorkil, og deres oplevelser som troubadurer, spillestedsledere (bl.a. Tivolis ViseVersHus og Vesthhuset i Sorø), restauratører, bookere og meget mere. Selvfølgelig møder vi også de mange personligheder, som Peter har mødt på sin vej: danske kollegaer (John Mogensen, Erik Grip, Tørfisk, Sebastian og mange flere), amerikanske idoler og samarbejdspartnere (bl.a. John Denver, Janis Ian, Joan Baez, Jess Leary og Julie Burton) – og den hjemlige kulturpolitik får også et par ord med på vejen. SANG OG BÆGERKLANG er også kodeordene, når man omtaler Vesth Vennerne – Peter Vesths fanklub gennem 30 år. Klubben har for tiden cirka 500 medlemmer, som følger Peter Vesth på rejser og koncerter med mere. Historierne bindes sammen af mere end 250 fotos fra Peters karriere, ligesom den vedlagte cd med 23 originale Vesth-indspilninger fra to årtusinder er med til at sætte lyd på sagen.

This is a concise, thematic strategy text which will help students to see organizations from the perspective of the Chief Executive and to understand and debate the challenges, opportunities and issues which constitute the role of the CEO.
This major new text provides an introduction to the interaction of culture and society with the landscape and environment. It offers a broad-based view of this theme by drawing upon the varied traditions of landscape interpretation, from the traditional cultural geography of scholars such as Carl Sauer to the 'new' cultural geography which has emerged in the 1990s. The book comprises three major, interwoven strands. First, fundamental factors such as environmental change and population pressure are addressed in order to sketch the contextual variables of landscapes production. Second, the evolution of the humanised landscape is discussed in terms of processes such as clearing wood, the impact of agriculture, the creation of urban-industrial complexes, and is also treated in historical periods such as the pre-industrial, the modern and the post-modern. From this we can see the cultural and economic signatures of human societies at different times and places. Finally, examples of landscape types are selected in order to illustrate the ways in which landscape both represents and participates in social change.The authors use a wide range of source material, ranging from place-names and pollen diagrams to literature and heritage monuments. Superbly illustrated throughout, it is essential reading for first-year undergraduates studying historical geography, human geography, cultural geography or landscape history.
