muu
for SSA and piano or harp This is a beautifully crafted setting of a medieval German text. The composer's simple but effective writing underscores perfectly the quietly wondrous nature of the text, the gentle 'Kyrie eleison' refrain providing a poignant commentary throughout. The harp part (which includes all three carols in the set) is available from Banks Music Publications for sale under the title Three Upper-voice Carols.

Maria W. Stewart was a trailblazing political philosopher and social reformer, who migrated from the Connecticut of her birth, south to Baltimore and then Washington, D.C. on the eve of the Civil War. Stewart was a free-born African American who became a teacher, journalist, lecturer, abolitionist, and women's rights activist. She is the first known American woman to offer political lectures before an interracial audience of men and woman. Maria W. Stewart: Essential Writings of a 19th-Century Black Abolitionist offers the most comprehensive and contextually dynamic collection of Stewart's fascinating corpus to date. In addition to including an intellectual biography on this formidable female historical figure. Douglas A. Jones brings together Stewart's known essays, lectures, and fiction, including recently discovered texts, all of which directly influenced other major black abolitionist contemporaries, including Frederick Douglass and many others. The volume's extended introduction and detailed notes situate Stewart's then-radical political philosophy in the rich intellectual contexts in which she worked, including abolitionism, black nationalism, feminism, and sentimentalism.

This work offers a detailed reconstruction of the campaigns for and trials resulting in the beatification (in 1626) and subsequent canonization in 1169 of the Florentine mystic nun, Maria Maddalena de' Pazzi (1566-1607). Clare Copeland places her findings in the wide context of the politics of saint-making at a time of particular significance for the history of Roman Catholic canonization. The Protestant Reformation had put the Roman Catholic Church on the defensive in this area of devotional practice and the period covered in this volume (ca. 1600-1669) saw far-reaching reforms in the ways in which sanctity was measured and adjudicated by Rome. Copeland shows how these developments need to be seen less in terms of a top-down attempt by the central organs of ecclesiastical control to impose a hegemony of holiness and more in terms of negotiation over the meanings of sanctity--and how it relates to canonization-between the various stakeholders.

All eyes are on Mars. NASA's new lander, InSight, has touched down on the red planet, and in two years Mars 2020 rover will depart Cape Canaveral bound for the red planet. The ultimate challenge is to enable crewed missions to Mars by the 2030s – the next giant leap for mankind. In Mars: A Journey of Discovery, NASA historian and award-winning space writer Rod Pyle takes us through previously uncharted territory to experience the unravelling of the mysteries of Mars first-hand and as they happened. With unparalleled access to NASA's archives, he traces the exploration of the red planet from fleeting telescopic examinations of the first flybys in the 1960s, through the landers of the 1970s, to the increasingly sophisticated rovers and orbiters now exploring every region of the planet. Insider documents from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, including newly found hand-drawn renderings of mission designs and personal annotations, illustrate every aspect of 50 years of discovery. The elaborate plans for the human explorations of Mars are also shown in exquisite detail, including NASA's ambitious designs for crewed missions and some compelling alternative mission plans by experts such as Buzz Aldrin.

Vienna, 1939. Count Wallmoden, an officer and veteran of the First World War, is preparing to take part in a mysterious ‘military exercise’. One evening, while off duty, he meets the austere and beautiful Baroness Pistohlkors, whose secretive nature and elusive circle of acquaintances suggest that things – including the ‘military exercise’ – are not quite what they seem. Forced to leave the Baroness, Wallmoden promises to return for a tryst once his tour of duty is over, only to discover his unit has been mobilised for war. He finds himself over the border, marching across Europe – and, more seductively, stumbling to and fro over the border that separates the living from the dead. One constant remains: in this world or the next, he must keep his tryst with Baroness Pistohlkors.Simultaneously a ghost story drawing on the phantasms of the unconscious mind, a thriller where the erotic and the supernatural converge, and a shockingly realist account of the German Wehrmacht’s invasion of Poland, the novel Mars in Aries was refused a publishing permit by the Nazis, hinting as it did at the existence of an Austrian resistance. The book’s entire print run was put into storage and subsequently destroyed by an Allied air raid. Reprinted from the author’s proofs after the war, Mars in Aries is one of Alexander Lernet-Holenia’s finest and most celebrated novels.

Maria, nemica del peccato. Meditazioni mariane di san Francesco de Geronimo S.I.
San Francesco de Geronimo (1642-1716) e la Madonna: un legame profondo e viscerale; un amore filiale straordinario ed ineffabile. Il taumaturgo gesuita fu l'autore del canto mariano "Dio ti salvi, Regina", che divenne l'inno nazionale della Corsica. Il santo missionario del Regno di Napoli afferm che un cristiano difficilmente si potrebbe salvare se non stato un vero devoto della Madonna, che la chiave d'oro del Paradiso. Per ventidue anni, ogni marted , tenne un ciclo di prediche nella chiesa di "Santa Maria di Costantinopoli", alla quale i napoletani erano particolarmente devoti, in quanto protettrice della citt durante le calamit naturali. Prima di uscire dal "Ges Nuovo" per andare a predicare nei pressi del Maschio Angioino e nei Quartieri spagnoli rivolgeva uno sguardo alla Madonna. Nelle carceri, negli ospedali e nelle galere distribuiva delle medagliette che aveva fatto realizzare e che riproducevano l'effigie della "Mater Divinae Gratiae".

"Maria", e uno dei primi racconti di Stefano Centrone. Autore emergente che vuole dire anche lui la sua attraverso i suoi racconti. Scrittore e poeta tra i piu giovani, entrato da poco nel mondo della letteratura, ha tanto da condividere attraverso i suoi pensieri. Ma qui lo troviamo in veste di scrittore. Attraverso questa veste vuole raccontare le sue storie, i suoi racconti: alcuni inventati, altri con una nota di realta.Il racconto "Maria", e uno di quest'ultimi: un misto di realta e fantasia, dove i personaggi e i luoghi fanno e hanno fatto parte della vita dell'autore.Infatti, il protagonista maschile Stefano non a caso porta il suo nome; mentre il personaggio femminile Maria e tratto dalla sua fantasia.In questo racconto, il terzo protagonista e l'amore, l'amore sotto ogni forma di positivita. Un amore che pero' viene interrotto in modo drammatico e che finira con la morte di uno dei due personaggi della storia.
Maria nell'Islam: Nell’Ebraismo e nei Vangeli Apocrifi
Maria, la madre di Gesu e anche nota nel mondo Islamico. Il Corano la cita 23 volte. Il testo riporta e commenta tutte le citazioni coraniche, le citazioni che abbiamo nei Vangeli Canonici e descrive gli avvenimenti dei Vangeli Apocrifi in cui Maria viene menzionata. I Miracoli propiziati da Maria grazie all'acqua utilizzata per il bagno di Gesu bambino e le bende che lo avvolgevano. Vengono quindi riportati i passaggi presenti nel Talmud e in Toledot Yeshu, ossia le fonti Ebraiche di Maria, oltre al passo che Celso dedica alla madre di Gesu. Viene quindi fatta un'analisi di comparazione dei testi da cui risulta che, nelle linee generali, la vita di Maria del Corano e la medesima descritta nei Vangeli Canonici, dall'annunciazione alla nascita di Gesu anche se narrata in maniera difforme, dall'infanzia passata al Tempio ai rapporti con gli Apostoli. I Vangeli Apocrifi forniscono una grande messe di informazioni che sono alla base della Teologia Cristiana.

This is the first full-length introduction to the life and works of significant American composer Marga Richter (born 1926), who has written more than one hundred works for orchestra, chamber ensemble, dance, opera, voice, chorus, piano, organ, and harpsichord. Still actively composing in her eighties, Richter is particularly known for her large-scale works performed by ensembles such as the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the Civic Orchestra of Chicago and for other pieces performed by prominent artists including pianist Menahem Pressler, conductor Izler Solomon, and violinist Daniel Heifetz. Interspersing consideration of Richter's musical works with discussion of her life, her musical style, and the origins and performances of her works, Sharon Mirchandani documents a successful composer's professional and private life throughout the twentieth century. Covering Richter's formative years, her influences, and the phases of her career from the 1950s to the present, Mirchandani closely examines Richter's many interesting, attractive musical works that draw inspiration from distinctly American, Irish/English, and Asian sources. Drawing extensively on interviews with the composer, Mirchandani also provides detailed descriptions of Richter's scores and uses reviews and other secondary sources to provide contexts for her work, including their relationship to modern dance, to other musical styles, and to 1970s feminism.
