The Christian Life. Part II. Wherein That Fundamental Principle of Christian Duty, ... Volume II. By John Scott, ... The Sixth Edition. of 2; Volume 2
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Walter Scott on Monarchy

Walter Scott on Monarchy

This book situates Walter Scott's novels on monarchy within both their historical contexts and biopolitical theory, particularly regarding the King's Two Bodies, a notion that, according to Ernst H. Kantorowicz, raises 'the spectre of an absolutism. . .in an abstract physiological fiction.' It attends to Scott's careful calibration of the historical record behind each novel while noting that his reflections on the seismic shifts caused by the French Revolution and the Napoleonic era culminating in The Life of Napoleon Buonaparte (1827) informs his representations of monarchy in the novels. While each novel's consideration of the rights and limitations of royal prerogatives is deeply grounded in its own historical context, Scott's fiction and the Life demonstrate keen awareness of the nineteenth-century shift to what Michel Foucault calls 'governmentality' that is, the sovereign power's project to control and protect subjects, often through surveillance, policing, and the strategic exercise of mercy.

A city girl through and through - how will she cope with country life? 'Amber is a gorgeous character to spend time with, and it's a real treat to find a genuinely funny, uplifting book' Fiona WalkerAmber Scott loves her city life - a terrific job working on a glossy magazine, and a fiancé, Ed, she's known since Uni. Even if Ed doesn't take her job seriously (as a solicitor, he doesn't have much time for women's magazines!), it is Amber's dream job. So Ed's news that he has taken a job in the West Country turns Amber's world upside down. The new life in Cornwall does not get off to the best start. The huge house Ed was so keen on is, well, huge - what is Amber going to do with four acres? And do M&S make Aga-ready meals? And when a handsome, if surly, man leads the local hunt over her land, it's more than Amber can stand. So how is it that, before long Amber is friends with the local eccentric Lady of the Manor, making love potions at her mother's recommendation - and answering the door naked to strangers...?
