Meanwhile, in the nearby country estate of Drozdovka, one of the prized white Bulldogs - prized because of its one brown ear, and its propensity to drool - belonging to the cantankerous lady of the house has been poisoned. The old widow has taken to her bed, sick with fear that her two remaining dogs may face a similar fate, and the many potential beneficiaries of her will wait fretfully to see whether or not she will recover.Sister Pelagia: bespectacled, freckled, woefully clumsy and astonishingly resourceful is summoned by the Bishop of Zavolzhsk to investigate the bulldog's death. But her investigation soon takes a far more sinister turn when two headless bodies are pulled out of the river on the edge of the estate.

Fans of Sister Pelagia and the White Bulldog, the first book in Akunin's Pelagia trilogy, will be instantly mesmerized-and frightened-by this latest foray into Zavolzhsk' s spiritual underworld. In the middle of the night, a disheveled and badly frightened monk arrives at the doorstep of Bishop Mitrofanii of Zavolzhsk, crying: "Something's wrong at the Hermitage " The Hermitage is the centuries-old island monastery of New Ararat, known for its tradition of severely penitent monks, isolated environs, and a mental institution founded by a millionaire in self-imposed exile. Hearing the monk's eerie message, Mitrofanii's befuddled but sharp-witted ward Sister Pelagia begs to visit New Ararat and uncover the mystery. Traditions prevail-no women are allowed-and the bishop sends other wards to test their fates against the Black Monk that haunts the once serene locale. But as the Black Monk claims more victims-including Mitrofanii's envoys-Pelagia goes undercover to see exactly what person, or what spirit, is at the bottom of it all. Praise for Sister Pelagia and the Black Monk "For all his status as a globe-circling bestseller, Akunin keeps faith in his sleekly engineered and allusive whodunnits with the classical virtues of Russian prose. . . . That polish lends his books a peculiar charm."-The Independent (London) "Readers can hear echoes of Leo Tolstoy, Fyodor Dostoevsky and Anton Chekov in whodunits that, because of their literary overtones, can be guiltlessly consumed as entertainment."--Los Angeles Times

Isis Pelagia: Images, Names and Cults of a Goddess of the Seas

Isis Pelagia: Images, Names and Cults of a Goddess of the Seas

Laurent Bricault

BRILL
2019
sidottu
In Isis Pelagia: Images, Names and Cults of a Goddess of the Seas, Laurent Bricault, one of the principal scholars of the cults of Isis, presents a new interpretation of the multiple sources that present Isis as a goddess of the seas. Bricault discusses a wealth of relatively unknown archaeological and textual data, drawing on a profound knowledge of their historical context. After decades of scholarly study, Bricault offers an important contribution and a new phase in the debate on understanding the “diffusion” as well as the “reception” of the cults of Isis in the Graeco-Roman world. This book, the first English-language monograph by the leading French scholar in the field, underlines the importance of Isis Studies for broader debates in the study of ancient religion.

Deregulierung des Crowdlendings in Deutschland

Deregulierung des Crowdlendings in Deutschland

Paulina Pelagia Julia Jähnigen

Springer
2023
nidottu
Das Crowdlending galt als große Chance zur alternativen Finanzierung von kleineren und mittleren Unternehmen. Aufgrund der strengen nationalen Regulierung konnten die Möglichkeiten dieser Art der Finanzierungsform in Deutschland allerdings nicht ausgeschöpft werden. Vielmehr stellten die hiesigen Ausformungen des Crowdlendings einen versteckten Bankkredit dar. Die Autorin versucht die Vorteile des Crowdlendings mittels eines nationalen Gesetzesentwurfs für die Wirtschaft auszuspielen ohne gleichzeitig die Finanzmärkte zu destabilisieren. Der erarbeitete Gesetzesentwurf kann trotz europäischer Neuregelung des Crowdlendings noch immer als Ansatzpunkt einer generellen Deregulierung und agileren Ausformung der Regelungen der Finanzaufsicht verstanden werden.
