Beschreibung

In 'Richard Lepsius, a Biography,' Georg Ebers masterfully navigates the life and contributions of one of the 19th century's foremost Egyptologists, Richard Lepsius. Ebers employs a rich narrative style that intertwines biographical detail with insightful historical context, emphasizing Lepsius's groundbreaking explorations and contributions to our understanding of ancient Egypt. Through meticulous research and eloquent prose, Ebers brings to life not only Lepsius's passion for archaeology but also the intellectual currents of modernity that influenced his work, allowing readers to appreciate the significance of his discoveries within both scholarly and cultural frameworks. Georg Ebers, a prominent novelist and Egyptologist himself, was deeply impacted by the socio-political and scientific revolutions of his time, including advancements in archaeology. His extensive studies in ancient civilizations, coupled with his own travels in Egypt, are reflected in the profound respect and admiration he holds for Lepsius. Ebers's background enables him to communicate the complexities of archaeological study while capturing the fervor and intrigue surrounding 19th-century discoveries. This biography is highly recommended for both enthusiasts of Egyptology and those interested in the hermeneutics of historical narrative. Ebers's work not only serves as a testament to Richard Lepsius's legacy but also enriches our understanding of the formative phases of modern archaeology, making it an essential addition to the libraries of scholars and general readers alike.

    Jim Morrison, the enigmatic frontman of the iconic rock band The Doors, lived a life filled with artistic expression, rebellion, and introspection. Born in 1943, Morrison's raw talent as a singer, songwriter, and poet was matched only by his charismatic stage presence and unconventional lifestyle. His music, poetry, and provocative persona continue to captivate audiences, making him an enduring figure in rock and roll history. 
     
    Morrison's legacy lies in his ability to push boundaries and challenge societal norms through his art. As the lyricist and vocalist of The Doors, he explored themes of love, darkness, freedom, and the human condition with profound intensity. Songs like "Light My Fire," "Break On Through (To the Other Side)," and "Riders on the Storm" showcased Morrison's poetic prowess and his willingness to delve into the depths of the human psyche. His performances were characterized by a raw, uninhibited energy that captivated audiences, establishing him as one of rock's most iconic and controversial figures. 
    In addition to his music, Morrison's poetry and writings reflected his profound introspection and artistic vision. He published two collections of poetry, "The Lords and the New Creatures" and "An American Prayer," which revealed his talent for blending vivid imagery, introspective musings, and social commentary. Morrison's exploration of themes such as identity, mortality, and spirituality added depth to his artistry and provided insight into his complex worldview. 
     
    Jim Morrison's life was cut tragically short when he passed away at the age of 27, joining the infamous "27 Club" alongside other legendary musicians. However, his impact on music, poetry, and the counterculture of the 1960s continues to resonate.

    Every year, more than a million women find themselves grappling with the devastating loss of a life partner—a loss that shatters their present and leaves their future in doubt. At 65, Margaret Mandell faces this heart-wrenching reality when she loses her husband of 45 years to a fast-moving disease. The bed is now half-empty, her body betrays her, and laughter seems elusive. 
    In the depths of longing and haunted by memories, Mandell embarks on a journey of healing through the written word. She begins to write letters to the man she loved in a poignant process of retracing their shared history. But when a tender-hearted college professor steps quietly into her life and listens attentively as Mandell reads her accumulating stack of letters out loud, her world is transformed in profound and unexpected ways. 
    And Always One More Time is a story that delves deep into the human experience, reminiscent of C.S. Lewis's A Grief Observed in its wisdom and Joyce Carol Oates's A Widow's Story in its suspense. It offers universal truths about love, loss, and resilience, much like Steve Leder's The Beauty of What Remains. With potent and swift-moving words, this book can be devoured in a single sitting. It is a beacon of hope for those navigating the aftermath of the greatest loss. 
    ------ 
    "A moving, insightful, and beautifully crafted story of losing one great love and finding another." 
    -- Kirkus Reviews 
    ------ 
     "Margaret Mandell’s AND ALWAYS ONE MORE TIME is a warm, personable memoir of love, loss, and hope. With both its heartfelt epistolary style and friendly, clear reading reflecting the precise, embodied attention of the author’s lifelong yoga practice, Mandell’s text is a reminder that not only frailty and mortality, but also love, lust, and joy, are ever-present, natural components of the human condition."

    John Joseph Kelly—the quintessential Good Samaritan—changed the lives of thousands of people in need, first as a devoted Catholic priest; then as a champion of the poor and a father figure to troubled minority youth; and finally, as a one-on-one mentor offering hope and guidance to hardcore San Quentin inmates. 
     
     
     
    Kelly was a spiritual superstar and a role model for anyone who truly desired to make a difference in their own community. When he died in 2019 at age ninety, thousands who knew him recalled the credo that marked his life: "We need to take what God has given us, discover it, and use it for justice and good." 
     
     
     
    Father Kelly did exactly this when he traded his Catholic collar for a work shirt in 1979. He dropped his cassock in dramatic fashion after his final mass to pursue "justice and good" for the next forty years. Kelly showed the courage of his convictions when he struggled with Church bureaucracy, hypocrisy, internal politics, silk vestments, and processions, ultimately deciding he could help more people by being less faithful to Catholic dogma, and do more as a lay person devoted to the teachings of Jesus, Muhammad, and Krishna. Kelly then dedicated his life to inspiring others to become instrumental in helping thousands of people—many of them homeless—who were hungry and needed food, shelter, and adequate clothing.
