"When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth." (Sherlock HOLMES in "The sign of the Four") ON NOVEMBER 9, 1888, MARY JANE KELLY CHEATED DEATH You are about to find out all of the evidence why Jack the Ripper never murdered her. But first, ask yourself the following question: do you believe in ghosts? Would you consider the possibility that Mary Jane KELLY came back from the dead to help solve the case? Whatever your answer, how to refute the amazing results of an investigation of 20 years? In his book, paranormal investigator Philippe R. WELTE focuses on serious facts and evidence, especially the most disturbing ones, concealed by the police. In addition, his theory, the first and only one to bring a personal motive for each murder, proves that the victims were not randomly selected by the Ripper. Prefaced by French writer and veteran television producer Pierre BELLEMARE, this book unveils a fascinating theory, until then never explored, which delivers the only possible answers about the man behind the mask of the Ripper.

English summary: Unter den Briefen des Apostels Paulus ist der an die Gemeinde in Philippi der einzige, der nicht durch Anfragen oder gar Miastande in der Gemeinde veranlaat ist. So kann Paulus, obwohl er sich in Haft befindet, relativ entspannt uber Themen schreiben, die ihm selbst am Herzen liegen, die aber naturlich fur die Gemeinde wichtig sind. Der Brief ist von der Freude uber das Leben mit Christus, aber auch vom Ernst des Leiden-Mussens fur ihn und von der Mahnung, sich in der Orientierung auf ihn nicht beirren zu lassen, bestimmt. Die Auslegung mochte die geschichtlichen Zusammenhange und die theologischen Themen des Briefes auch Nicht-Fachleuten erschlieaen.Der erste Thessalonicherbrief wird als altester Paulusbrief, der zweite Thessalonicherbrief als pseudepigraphes Schreiben, das auf den ersten Brief Bezug nimmt, behandelt. Das Hauptinteresse der Kommentierung liegt auf einer moglichst klaren Darstellung des Sachgehalts der Texte, ihrer Voraussetzungen, argumentativen Struktur und Zielsetzung. In einem Exkurs zur neutestamentlichen Pseudepigraphie wird versucht, das Verstandnis dieses neutestamentlichen Phanomens unter Berucksichtigung der fruhjudischen Literatur mit neuen Einsichten zu bereichern.Vor dem Hintergrund antiker Rechtstexte werden Anlaa und Situation des Philemonbriefes neu analysiert. Der Brief vermittelt in einem Streitfall, aber es geht nicht auch noch um Sklavenflucht. Das erleichtert das Verstandnis dieses Schreibens, das wertvolle Einsichten uber die rechte Art urchristlichen Zusammenlebens, uber die urchristliche Stellung zur Sklaverei, aber auch uber Paulus' Umgang mit seinem Apostolat vermittelt. So kommt der Seelsorger Paulus in den Blick, aber auch seine rhetorische Kunst, die sich auch psychologisch erlautern laat, ohne daa dadurch der theologischen Dimension etwas genommen wurde.

Christian Mythology

Christian Mythology

pokkari
In this extensive study of the Christian mythology that animated Europe in the Middle Ages, author Philippe Walter reveals how these stories and the holiday traditions connected with them are based on long-standing pagan rituals and myths and have very little connection to the Bible. The author explains how the church fathers knowingly incorporated pagan elements into the Christian faith to ease the transition to the new religion. Rather than tear down the pagan temples in Britain, Pope Gregory the Great advised Saint Augustine of Canterbury to add the pagan rituals into the mix of Christian practices and transform the pagan temples into churches. Instead of religious conversion, it was simply a matter of convincing the populace to include Jesus in their current religious practices. Providing extensive documentation, Walter shows which major calendar days of the Christian year are founded on pagan rituals and myths, including the high holidays of Easter and Christmas. Examining hagiographic accounts of the saints, he reveals the origin of these symbolic figures in the deities worshipped in pagan Europe for centuries. He also explores how the identities of saints and pagan figures became so intermingled that some saints were transformed into pagan incarnations, such as Mary Magdalene's conversion into one of the Celtic Ladies of the Lake. In revealing the pagan roots of many Christian figures, stories, and rituals, Walter provides a new understanding of the evolution of religious belief.

Presents the memories and insights of a great musician-a master of the guitar whose performances and exuberant, caring nature have brought joy to many around the world. Pepe Romero (b. 1944) has been one of the preeminent exponents of classical and flamenco guitar for over sixty years. He is renowned worldwide for his innumerable concerts and many recordings of a wide variety of repertoire, from solos to concertos and works for guitar duet and quartet. Indeed, Celedonio Romero (1913-96) and his three sons, Celin (b. 1936), Pepe, and Angel (b. 1946), formed the first significant guitar quartet in music history. In this memoir, Pepe conveys his views on a variety of topics pertaining to the guitar, including repertoire, technique, teaching, guitar makers, concertizing and the psychology of performance. He also offers fascinating recollections of his early years in Spain, his family life, and his collaborations and friendships with leading musicians, artists and writers. Though the focus is understandably on Pepe and his immediate circle, the reader also gains insights into the sociocultural context in which he grew up, during the dictatorship of Francisco Franco in the wake of a ruinous civil war. The Romeros moved to Southern California in 1957, a locale that proved very conducive to the success of a quartet of Spanish guitarists and one they still call home. This book will both entertain and inform a wide variety of readers and leave a lasting and reliable record of an extraordinary musician's exceptionally rich life.

The Memoir of General Toussaint Louverture

The Memoir of General Toussaint Louverture

Philippe R. Girard

Oxford University Press Inc
2017
nidottu
In June 1802, the Haitian revolutionary hero Toussaint Louverture was captured by special order of Napoléon Bonaparte and deported to mainland France, where he spent the remainder of his life in captivity in the prison of Fort de Joux. But Louverture, who had managed to rise from humble slave to governor of the richest of France's colonies, went down fighting. To defend his name and secure his release, he wrote a vivid account of his career. Historian Philippe Girard presents an annotated, scholarly, multilingual edition of the memoir, based on an original copy in Louverture's hand. Girard's introductory essay, based on archival research in France and the Caribbean, retraces Louverture's career in Haiti and provides a detailed narrative of the last year of Louverture's life. Girard analyzes the significance of the memoirs from a historical, literary, and linguistic perspective. Louverture's writing provides a vivid alternative perspective to anonymous plantation records, quantitative analyses of slave trading ventures, and slave narratives mediated by white authors. Though Louverture kept a stoic façade and rarely expressed his innermost thoughts and fears in writing, his memoirs are unusually emotional. He questioned whether he was targeted because of the color of his skin, bringing racism, an issue that Louverture rarely addressed head on with his white interlocutors, to the fore. The full transcript of these memoirs in both Louverture's idiosyncratic French and English helps paint a powerful yet nuanced portrait of the Haitian Revolution's most famous son as a gifted leader, a passionate advocate of slave emancipation, a loving family man, a compromising politician, a tragic hero, and an evocative author and user of Kreyòl, Haiti's national language.

The Slaves Who Defeated Napoleon

The Slaves Who Defeated Napoleon

Philippe R. Girard

The University of Alabama Press
2011
sidottu
To a contemporary audience, Haiti brings to mind Voodoo spells, Tontons Macoutes, and boat people - nothing worth fighting over. Two centuries ago, however, Haiti, then known as Saint-Domingue, was the “Pearl of the Antilles,” France's most valuable overseas colony, the largest exporter of tropical products in the world, and the United States' second most important trading partner after England.Haiti was also the place where in 1801-1802 Napoléon Bonaparte sent the largest colonial venture of his reign: the Leclerc expedition. His goal was to remove the famous revolutionary Toussaint Louverture from office and, possibly, restore slavery. But within two years, the remnants of Bonaparte’s once-proud army were evacuated in defeated, and Haiti declared its independence. This forgotten yet momentous conflict, in which lives were consumed by the thousands, is this book’s main focus.In this ambitious monograph, Philippe Girard employs the latest tools of the historian’s craft, multi-archival research in particular, and applies them to the climactic yet poorly understood last years of the Haitian Revolution. Haiti lost most of its archives to neglect and theft, but a substantial number of documents survive in French, U.S., British, and Spanish collections, both public and private. In all, The Slaves Who Defeated Napoleon relies on contemporary military, commercial, and administrative sources drawn from nineteen archives and research libraries on both sides of the Atlantic.Due to its extensive archival basis, the book corrects the many factual inaccuracies that have plagued previous accounts. It also offers a more rounded view of the Haitian Revolution, going beyond mere military minutia to include the activities of U.S. merchants; the in-fighting within the French government; the diplomacy between both the French and revolutionaries with the United States, England, and Spain; and the lives of the maroons, women, and children caught up in the revolutionary struggle. This multidimensional work tells not only of barefoot black soldiers ambushing Bonaparte’s columns, but also of Rochambeau’s mixed-race mistresses, French child drummers, Jewish bankers in Kingston, weapon smugglers from Quaker Philadelphia, Polish artillerists, and African-born maroons struggling to preserve their freedom against both white and black opponents.Equally groundbreaking is the book’s willingness to move beyond tidy ideological and racial categories to depict an Atlantic society at the crossroads of African and European influences, where Haitian rebels fought France while embracing its ideals. In the process, the reader is introduced to the extraordinary lives of multifaceted characters such as Wladyslaw Jablonowski, the son of a Polish woman and a black father who died fighting for France and white supremacy.
