Sinossi

In "Parish Life in Mediæval England," Francis Aidan Gasquet embarks on a meticulous exploration of the socio-religious landscape of England during the Middle Ages. Through a rich tapestry of historical narratives, Gasquet employs a literary style that merges vivid descriptions with scholarly rigor, illustrating how parishes functioned as vital centers of community life, spiritual growth, and social stability. He deftly analyzes the roles of clerics, laypeople, and religious practices, thereby contextualizing the parish within the broader fabric of medieval society, and drawing from primary sources to enrich his findings. As a prolific historian and a Benedictine monk, Gasquet's deep-rooted religious convictions and profound understanding of ecclesiastical history shaped his scholarly endeavors. His dedication to preserving the nuances of Catholic tradition against the backdrop of changing societal dynamics equips him with a unique perspective, allowing readers to appreciate the interdependencies of faith and daily life in this pivotal era. His passion for history, coupled with his theological insights, infuses the work with an authenticity that is both compelling and informative. "Parish Life in Mediæval England" is an essential read for anyone fascinated by medieval studies, religious history, or the socio-cultural development of England. Gasquet's comprehensive analysis invites readers to consider the integral role of parishes in shaping not only the lives of individual parishioners but also the course of English history. This book is a significant contribution to our understanding of the past and deserves a place on the shelves of scholars and enthusiasts alike.

Social Character in a Mexican...

Erich Fromm

“[A] groundbreaking study combining psychoanalytical and anthropological methods to analyse the impact of industrialization on ‘peasants.’” —Booknews The renowned psychoanalyst Erich Fromm analyzed more than just general society and societal processes. Together with Michael Maccoby, he completed a study of Mexican villagers to empirically illustrate how historical, economic, and social requirements determine behavior.Social Character in a Mexican Village does much more than introduce a new approach to the analysis of social phenomena. It throws new light on one of the world’s most pressing problems, the impact of the industrialized world on the traditional character of the laboring class. Unanimously, the book is an outstanding introduction to Fromm’s concept of social character. “Fromm and Maccoby have written a study of crucial importance.” —Richard J. Barnet, Institute for Policy Studies

Transsexual Apostate - My...

Debbie Hayton

'Brave and deeply considered… Her experience, and Transsexual Apostate, shouldn't be dismissed' The Telegraph
In a compelling first-hand account of what it means to be a transwoman – and where she feels the impulse comes from – Hayton explains why much of gender identity ideology is, in her view, false and damaging. Once a prominent member of the TUC LGBT+ committee, she charts how her views developed and put her at odds with the majority of trans activists. She issues a compassionate call to move beyond ideological conflicts, and to acknowledge the legitimate concerns that many have with an agenda that asserts that transwomen are women.
Hayton's honest, humane and moving book shows that by accepting reality, transwomen can live their best lives based on the truth of who they are – rather than the fantasy of who they are not.
'Brave, unflinching, insightful' - Professor Michael Bailey, author ofThe Man Who Would Be Queen

Quetzalcoatl - The Mesoamerican...

Kelly Mass

It’s a hard name to pronounce, but hey, it’s been the legend of Native American peoples for centuries.
Was it a man? Was it a god? Was it a white person? Or was it some animal or strange thing?
Quetzalcoatl is an Aztec divine being whose name originates from the Nahuatl language and meaning "valuable snake" or "Quetzal-feathered Snake."
"Quetzalcoatl, in its actual sense, means'snake of valuable plumes,' but in the allegorical sense, 'best of men,'" said Ixtlilxóchitl, a descendant of Aztec royalty and history expert of the Nahua people, in the 17th century.
Quetzalcoatl was related to gods of the wind, the world Venus, the early morning, merchants, and arts, crafts, and knowledge amongst the Aztecs, whose beliefs are the best recorded in historic sources.
He was also the Aztec priesthood's client god, and also the god of research study and knowledge.
In addition to the gods Tlaloc, Tezcatlipoca, and Huitzilopochtli, Quetzalcoatl was just one of the most considerable gods in the Aztec temple. Quetzalcoatl's ally Tlaloc (the divine being of rain) and Quetzalcoatl's twin and psychopomp, Xolotl, the dog-headed soul-guide for the dead, are 2 other gods represented by the world Venus.
Apart from that, many people in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints are convinced that Quetzalcoatl was the name for Jesus, who, according to their record, the Book of Mormon, came to the American continent.
In this brief book, we will discuss all those convictions, myths, and background stories, so you can be informed and make up your own mind.
