Excerpt from Herald of the Cross, 1907, Vol. 3 The day has also come when those who have made their dwelling amid the graves of the City of Jerusalem, should again hear the Voice of the Divine, and come forth unto newness of Life. They must hear His voice break upon their ears whom they knew as the Redeemer, even as of one who has been sent forth to purify the House of Levi. They must learn that the Divine Love knows them all by name, and calls them by it. They must learn that, when He calls, they should make ready to enter into the King dom. They must learn that to refuse to enter that Kingdom will mean for them to choose to remain as one of the dwellers amid the graves. They must assuredly know that to so remain amid these graves, is to choose the path whose ending is death to the Soul. They must learn from their own sad history which we are about to restore unto them, What Spiritual Death means. They have known the meaning of Divine Life, and so have often sought during the long ages of their captivity, to find it again. They have known the meaning of oppression at the hands of both the Egyptian and the Assyrian - the body with its passions, and the mind of that body with its false ambitions. They have long mourned in captivity because they were unable to find the life they sought. They have for ages and ages been languishing for those Streams of Life which they once knew, and that Bread of Life which was once their strength. They have many a time cried out.for both bread and water for their Soul, when they were dwellers amid the arid land of the desert. They have many a time yearned and even cried out for the Redeemer to come and deliver them from their sad estate. They have often looked for that Redeemer amid the false lights kindled from the kingdom of the enemy. They have often mistaken these lights for the true signs of the coming of the Redeemer, and, through following them, have again been deceived. They have many a time been ensnared by these false lights, into the same conditions as those from which they sought to escape. They have frequently followed mere mirages, until they have found themselves even amid the streams of Babylon. They have often been held in bondage by these streams, until their very Soul languished in unspeakable sorrow. They have thus Spent the long ages of their captivity.

This groundbreaking study explores the later lives and late-life writings of more than two dozen British women authors active during the long eighteenth century. Drawing on biographical materials, literary texts, and reception histories, Devoney Looser finds that far from fading into moribund old age, female literary greats such as Anna Letitia Barbauld, Frances Burney, Maria Edgeworth, Catharine Macaulay, Hester Lynch Piozzi, and Jane Porter toiled for decades after they achieved acclaim -- despite seemingly concerted attempts by literary gatekeepers to marginalize their later contributions. Though these remarkable women wrote and published well into old age, Looser sees in their late careers the necessity of choosing among several different paths. These included receding into the background as authors of "classics," adapting to grandmotherly standards of behavior, attempting to reshape masculinized conceptions of aged wisdom, or trying to create entirely new categories for older women writers. In assessing how these writers affected and were affected by the culture in which they lived, and in examining their varied reactions to the prospect of aging, Looser constructs careful portraits of each of her Subjects and explains why many turned toward retrospection in their later works. In illuminating the powerful and often poorly recognized legacy of the British women writers who spurred a marketplace revolution in their earlier years only to find unanticipated barriers to acceptance in later life, Looser opens up new scholarly territory in the burgeoning field of feminist age studies.
A brilliant work from the most influential philosopher since Sartre. In this indispensable work, a brilliant thinker suggests that such vaunted reforms as the abolition of torture and the emergence of the modern penitentiary have merely shifted the focus of punishment from the prisoner's body to his soul.
Patrice Gueniffey is the leading French historian of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic age. This book, hailed as a masterwork on its publication in France, takes up the epic narrative at the heart of this turbulent period: the life of Napoleon himself, the man who—in Madame de Staël’s words—made the rest of “the human race anonymous.” Gueniffey follows Bonaparte from his obscure boyhood in Corsica, to his meteoric rise during the Italian and Egyptian campaigns of the Revolutionary wars, to his proclamation as Consul for Life in 1802. Bonaparte is the story of how Napoleon became Napoleon. A future volume will trace his career as emperor. Most books approach Napoleon from an angle—the Machiavellian politician, the military genius, the life without the times, the times without the life. Gueniffey paints a full, nuanced portrait. We meet both the romantic cadet and the young general burning with ambition—one minute helplessly intoxicated with Josephine, the next minute dominating men twice his age, and always at war with his own family. Gueniffey recreates the violent upheavals and global rivalries that set the stage for Napoleon’s battles and for his crucial role as state builder. His successes ushered in a new age whose legacy is felt around the world today. Averse as we are now to martial glory, Napoleon might seem to be a hero from a bygone time. But as Gueniffey says, his life still speaks to us, the ultimate incarnation of the distinctively modern dream to will our own destiny.
This book develops the idea that since decolonisation, regional patterns of security have become more prominent in international politics. The authors combine an operational theory of regional security with an empirical application across the whole of the international system. Individual chapters cover Africa, the Balkans, CIS Europe, East Asia, EU Europe, the Middle East, North America, South America, and South Asia. The main focus is on the post-Cold War period, but the history of each regional security complex is traced back to its beginnings. By relating the regional dynamics of security to current debates about the global power structure, the authors unfold a distinctive interpretation of post-Cold War international security, avoiding both the extreme oversimplifications of the unipolar view, and the extreme deterritorialisations of many globalist visions of a new world disorder. Their framework brings out the radical diversity of security dynamics in different parts of the world.
