Sinopse

In 'The Works of Napoleon Bonaparte', the collection spans a diverse array of literary styles and themes, capturing pivotal moments from Napoleonic eras and offering a rich narrative canvas that speaks to both the historical and the philosophical. From meticulously crafted personal writings by Napoleon himself to critical examinations by contemporaries and later historians, the anthology showcases a range of perspectives on leadership, governance, and the struggles of wielding power. The anthology is particularly significant for its holistic approach and includes standout pieces that probe into lesser-known aspects of Bonaparte's rule and his personal reflections on warfare and diplomacy. The contributing authors, each with their deep expertise, offer a multifaceted portrayal of Napoleon. From his closest aide, Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne, providing an insider's view, to distinguished historians Ida M. Tarbell and Charles Downer Hazen, who analyze his impact through the lens of broader socio-economic and political transformations, this collection aligns with, and contributes to, the rich literary and historical discourse on one of Europe's most iconic leaders. This convergence of firsthand accounts and scholarly analysis enriches the reader's understanding of Napoleonic times. 'The Works of Napoleon Bonaparte' serves not only as a historical anthology but as a vital educational tool, offering readers an opportunity to explore a nexus of narratives shaped by varying interpretations and styles. This book is recommended for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of historical figures and the ways in which their legacies are constructed through literature. Dive into this engaging volume to appreciate the breadth of insights and dialogues it fosters among the differing yet complementary interpretations of Napoleon's life and works.

    C.S. Lewis For Beginners is a thorough examination of C. S. Lewis, the greatest Christian apologist of the twentieth century, throughout his career as an author and as a professor at Oxford University. A Christian apologist defends Christianity as a consistent and coherent worldview that squares with human reason, history, and desire. It offers answers to every facet of our lives on earth as well as answers to our questions about what happens after we die. What makes C.S. Lewis unique as an apologist is the way he balanced so perfectly reason and imagination, logic and intuition, and head and heart. In addition to writing such non-fiction apologetics books as Mere Christianity, The Problem of Pain, and Miracles, he wrote eleven novels: the seven Chronicles of Narnia, a trilogy of science-fiction adventures, and a haunting retelling of an old myth set in the ancient world. All eleven tell wonderful, captivating stories that stand on their own as fiction but that also support and bring to life the kinds of apologetical arguments he makes in his non-fiction. He also wrote two utterly unique works of fiction, The Screwtape Letters and The Great Divorce, that offer a fresh, highly original take on sin and temptation, angels and devils, and heaven and hell. And that’s not all. Lewis the apologist and novelist had a day job. He was a celebrated English professor at Oxford, and then Cambridge, University who wrote works of literary criticism that are still famous today. C.S. Lewis For Beginners takes the reader through the wardrobe of his complete catalog of writing.

    In 1981, just nine years old, Jennifer Cardy was abducted and murdered, her bicycle found standing where she had left it. 
     
     
     
    There followed dark days for the Cardy family, days of searching for their missing daughter, grieving her death, wrestling with the questions. It would be thirty years before they would find any answers; thirty years before her killer, Robert Black, would face any kind of justice. 
     
     
     
    Yet, incredibly, through it all the Cardy family found comfort in God. They discovered that God's love is greater than even the worst tragedy that can befall us and can be our strength through even the darkest of days.
