"The Abbot's Ghost, Or Maurice Treherne's Temptation" is a novella written by Louisa May Alcott, recognised for her traditional novel "Little Women." This lesser-recognized work delves into issues of affection, temptation, and redemption. The tale revolves around the protagonist, Maurice Treherne, a talented musician and the inheritor to an own family estate. He is deeply in love with Octavia, a lovely and virtuous female, but his existence takes a tumultuous turn when he encounters the ghost of an abbot who tempts him with wealth and energy. This supernatural entity represents temptation and assessments Maurice's ethical individual. As Maurice navigates this inner conflict, he is likewise entangled in a complex net of circle of relatives secrets and techniques, deceit, and rivalries. The narrative weaves collectively factors of thriller, romance, and the supernatural, growing a gripping tale of inner conflict. Louisa May Alcott's novella explores the undying topic of the human conflict among virtue and vice. It serves as a cautionary story approximately the allure of worldly goals and the importance of staying actual to at least one's moral compass. "The Abbot's Ghost" showcases Alcott's storytelling prowess and her capability to create engaging narratives that resonate with readers, even beyond her most well-known work, "Little Women."

Resignificar la violencia. El pensamiento político de Maurice Merleau-Ponty

SB Editorial

pokkari
Resignificar la violencia es fruto de una investigaci n sobre el pensamiento pol tico de Maurice Merleau-Ponty. En los seis cap tulos del libro, la autora presenta el debate de Merleau-Ponty con otros pensadores (Maquiavelo, Husserl, Hegel, Marx, Sartre, L ckas, entre otros) en un contexto social y pol tico marcado por la violencia de las dos guerras mundiales, la unilateralidad ideol gica de la Guerra Fr a y el colonialismo. El objetivo de esta contextualizaci n es explicitar c mo, desde un an lisis fenomenol gico prereflexivo, el autor franc s elabora una comprensi n de la praxis pol tica, vinculada a otras ideas relevantes en su pensamiento filos fico. De tal modo, surge la necesidad de que el concepto violencia sea puesto "entre par ntesis", para -luego- descubrirlo como parte del entramado de nuestras relaciones colectivas, que anteceden postulados y teor as pol tico-filos ficas. As , la violencia reaparece como un fen meno social fundamental de la vida pol tica y supone atender a una multiplicidad de dimensiones que interact an en nuestra historia.

F. D. Maurice and Unitarianism

F. D. Maurice and Unitarianism

David Young

Clarendon Press
1992
sidottu
F. D. Maurice (1805-72) was one of Victorian Britain's most controversial thinkers. Although he came from a Unitarian family and counted leading Unitarians as his friends, their influence on his work has never been seriously examined. The purpose of this new book is to look at his life and teaching in the light of Unitarianism. Maurice's faith had a distinctly Christological emphasis, but he continued to value his Unitarian heritage. His concern with the Fatherhood of God and the dignity of the human race owes much to his family background. Dr Young's study opens with a compact history of Unitarianism during the lives of F. D. Maurice and his father, a Unitarian minister. A series of biographical sketches draws on hitherto unpublished material to set Maurice's work in its historical context. The final chapters compare the central themes of his theology with the teaching of his Unitarian contemporaries.
