Catherine of Siena: Living the Truth in Love by Elizabeth A. Dreyer, ISBN 0867163038

In this seven-day retreat, Living the Truth in Love, your director is Catherine of Siena, the fourteenth-century Italian laywoman with the strong will and staunch commitment to carry out what she thought God was directing her to do. Catherine, declared Doctor of the Church in 1970, clung to the truth, lived by the truth and sought after the truth throughout her life. With her we will meet the God whom she called "Gentle Truth", struggle with the sin and glory of our own truth and ponder the fruits of truth -- discernment, freedom and wisdom.

Impersonal Si Constructions: Agreement and Interpretation

This book is a research monograph on impersonal si constructions (ISC) in Italian within the Minimalist program framework. The book offers a new point of view on ISCs, providing a new set of crucial data that were previously unknown, and pointing out many characteristics of ISCs that were overlooked before.

Alamein to Tunis: The Eighth Army's in North Africa by Adrian Turner, ISBN 0850526663

The British victory at El Alamein in November, 1942, while a decisive turning point in the war, did not immediately lead to the collapse of Axis forces in North Africa. While much depleted, the Afrika Korps escaped from the El Alamein battlefield in good order and fell back on strong defensive positions in Tunisia, bolstered by some of the world's most difficult terrain. German paratroopers and Hermann Goring Division panzergrenadiers were sent to North Africa as reinforcements, Italian units were more capable in the defensive role, and Montgomery could not be sure of the loyalty of Germany's nominal Vichy French allies.

Not even the creation of a second front in North Africa with the arrival of the Americans and fresh British units was enough to dislodge the Axis forces. The author describes in detail the hard campaigning and desperate battles that were necessary to bring about final victory in North Africa. A full description is given of the often-neglected air aspect of the campaign....

The Marvel of Maps: Art, Cartography, and Politics in Renaissance Italy

Among the most beautiful and compelling works of Renaissance art, painted maps adorned the halls and galleries of princely palaces. This book is the first to discuss in detail the three-dimensional display of these painted map cycles and their full meaning in Renaissance culture.
Art historian Francesca Fiorani focuses on two of the most significant and marvelous surviving Italian map murals--the Guardaroba Nuova of the Palazzo Vecchio, Florence, commissioned by Duke Cosimo de' Medici, and the Gallery of Maps in the Vatican, commissioned by Pope Gregory XIII. Both cycles were not only pioneering cartographic enterprises but also powerful political and religious images. Presenting an original interpretation of the interaction between art, science, politics, and religion in Renaissance culture, the book also offers fresh insights into the Medici and papal courts.

Objects of Desire: A Portrait of Love and Marriage by Ralph Graves, ISBN 0740740083

This is a love story, told in a completely different way. Eleanor MacKenzie, just graduated from Barnard, and Ralph Graves, just graduated from Harvard, met as brand-new researchers at Life magazine in September 1948. They soon married other people, but the two couples then became closest friends. After seven years of that closeness, Eleanor and Ralph realized that they were profoundly in love. Both went through bitter and punitive divorces to get to each other. It was worth it. They have now been married for 45 years. This book is the story of their love and marriage, told through the myriad objects that have played a significant role in that story. Gifts, homes, cars, painting, books, furniture, jewelry, clothes--all are invested with a deeply emotional value that grew out of what those objects of desire meant to these two people. But the story does not apply only to these two particular people. As Ralph Graves says about these objects of desire, "They have resonance. Each of us, in every...

Charles Rennie Mackintosh: The Complete Furniture, Furniture Design, and Interior Designs

The great Scottish architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh (18681928) has come to be seen as one of the most influential early modern designers. Like Frank Lloyd Wright, whom he rivals in popularity today, Mackintosh viewed the design of furniture and interiors as a vital part of his architectural work. Today, original Mackintosh pieces are fabulously expensive, but reproductions and objects based on his design ideas are still wildly popular.
