Reflections on San Francisco Bay: A Kayaker's Tall Tales: Vol 15

Reflections on San Francisco Bay: A Kayaker's Tall Tales: Vol 15

John Boeschen

Independently Published
2020
nidottu
For a group of San Francisco Bay Area residents, Thursday nights are reserved for kayaking on the bay. Islands, bights, caves, and more . . . no corner of the bay and its history are left unexplored. While the tales in this volume chronicle only the paddles in 2014, they are part of a longer time flow, starting in 2000. Better than any travel guide on San Francisco Bay, these volumes capture the flavor of one of the world's most renown bodies of water.

My Collection of Recipes from Across America and Germany

This is not a professionally written cookbook, but is a representation of homegrown family cooking. Minus a few corporate inspired recipes and one professional carrot cake recipe, My Little Book of Kitchen Recipes is a collection of hand-me-down family recipes from one generation to the next.The design of this book has been left plain, because in the author's opinion, too many illustrations cause distractions in the kitchen. It is his hope that, by providing the space to enter a recipe or alter an existing one, more people will take up cooking again and continue to pass these and other recipes on to future generation.

The Stolen Bones of St. John of Matha

The Stolen Bones of St. John of Matha

A. Katie Harris

Pennsylvania State University Press
2023
sidottu
On the night of March 18, 1655, two Spanish friars broke into a church to steal the bones of the founder of their religious institution, the Order of the Most Holy Trinity. This book investigates this little-known incident of relic theft and the lengthy legal case that followed, together with the larger questions that surround the remains of saints in seventeenth-century Catholic Europe.Drawing on a wealth of manuscript and print sources from the era, A. Katie Harris uses the case of St. John of Matha’s stolen remains to explore the roles played by saints’ relics, the anxieties invested in them, their cultural meanings, and the changing modes of thought with which early modern Catholics approached them. While in theory a relic’s authenticity and identity might be proved by supernatural evidence, in practice early modern Church authorities often reached for proofs grounded in the material, human world—preferences that were representative of the standardizing and streamlining of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century saint-making. Harris examines how Matha’s advocates deployed material and documentary proofs, locating them within a framework of Scholastic concepts of individuation, identity, change, and persistence, and applying moral certainty to accommodate the inherent uncertainty of human evidence and relic knowledge.Engaging and accessible, The Stolen Bones of St. John of Matha raises an array of important questions surrounding relic identity and authenticity in seventeenth-century Europe. It will be of interest to students, scholars, and casual readers interested in European history, religious history, material culture, and Renaissance studies.

From Barebones to Old Bones. John St Nicholas (1604-1698)

From Barebones to Old Bones. John St Nicholas (1604-1698)

Latimer Trust

pokkari
John St Nicholas was a Leicestershire puritan minister, ejected after the Restoration in 1660. Subsequent to his ejection, he lived on for a further 38 years. How he used his time during his lengthy 'retirement' provides a helpful model for today's Christians seeking to continue serving God as they get older. This study considers the various activities St Nicholas undertook in his retirement years such as reflection on his life, relationships and hospitality, intellectual study and faithful ministry."John St Nicholas died aged 94 in 1698. He was a Puritan who thus lived through the turmoil of the seventeenth century. The particular interest of this lecture lies in his ministry in 'retirement' following his ejection from Lutterworth at the Restoration. Here we see the opportunities as well as the perils of such a ministry."Revd Mark Burkill, Chair of Latimer TrustDr Lesley A. Rowe is an independent church historian, lecturer and author, specialising in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English religious history. Her 2009 PhD from the University of Warwick focused on the ministry and works of Arthur Hildersham (1563-1632). She is also the author of The Life and Times of Arthur Hildersham: Prince among Puritans (Reformation Heritage Books, 2013) and has edited two of Hildersham's works (published by Reformation Heritage Books, in 2017 and 2019).
