Beschreibung

"Ancient Law" explores the historical origins of modern legal systems by examining the legal codes, court systems, and concepts of justice in ancient civilizations like Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. It argues that fundamental legal principles such as fairness and the rule of law, often taken for granted today, have roots in these early societies. The book uniquely compares different ancient legal systems, revealing common themes and divergent approaches, and providing a broader understanding of legal evolution.

 
The book traces the evolution of legal principles from rudimentary retribution to more sophisticated justice notions and examines the development of legal institutions from informal dispute resolutions to formalized court systems. For instance, the Code of Hammurabi, one of the earliest known legal codes, reveals much about ancient societal values and punishments.

 
Understanding the social, political, and economic contexts of these ancient laws is crucial, as it sheds light on the assumptions embedded within our current legal structures. The approach taken in "Ancient Law" is academic, utilizing both primary and secondary sources to ensure a comprehensive analysis.

 
The book is structured in three parts, beginning with an introduction to basic concepts such as offenses and punishments, moving to the evolution of court systems, and concluding with an analysis of the lasting influence of ancient law on modern legal systems. This historical and political exploration is intended for those interested in legal history or political science.

    Bringing Hope To Hearts That Are Raw And Fragile 
    Are you in an abusive relationship/marriage? 
    Or have you been able to make the break? 
    Do you feel stripped of your dignity and worth and your right to be safe? 
    Are you grappling with guilt and shame? 
    Are you seeking comfort and validation? 
    Are you in need of strength and support? 
    If so, then this book is for you! 
    Over the 20 year period that I was trapped in an abusive marriage, I left and reconciled with my husband many times before God gave me the courage to break free once and for all. 
    I wanted to find a book that would soothe my troubled spirit and show me clearly the Scriptures that speak of God's heart for hurting and abused women. I could not find such a book and so, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I wrote this 40-day devotional. This devotional aims to comfort and uplift the hurting heart of any woman who, like me, was overwhelmed by the pain of an abusive marriage and drowning in sorrow and regret, guilt and grief, shame, doubt and fear. 
    This beautiful book is Spirit-filled with bite sized morsels to savour and digest. It is a book which ministers to women who have found the courage to break free of the cycle of abuse and are now desperately needing validation for their decision. It is also a book which can help women still in abuse to know that there is a way forward through Jesus, the One who invites us to bathe in His true and tender love; and who brings us freedom and joy, overcoming and healing - and the peace that surpasses all understanding.

    Jane Austen - A Very Short...

    Jane Austen wrote six of the best-loved novels in the English language, as well as a smaller corpus of works unpublished in her day, including three volumes of witty, non-realist juvenilia and the innovative, unfinished, Sanditon. She pioneered new techniques for representing voices, minds, and hearts in narrative prose, and was a penetrating satirist of social tensions and trends. Yet Austen struggled for many years to break into print, and even as she became a published author in the last years of her relatively short life, reading tastes and book-trade expectations constrained as much as they enabled her literary career. 
     
     
     
    This Very Short introduction explores the major themes of Austen criticism through close analysis of her major and minor works, with particular emphasis on the literary, social, and political backgrounds from which the novels emerge, and with which they engage. Thomas Keymer combines critical introductions to each of Austen's six major novels with an exploration of the key themes in her works. The Austen who emerges is a writer shaped by the literary experiments and socio-political debates of the revolution decade, drawn in her maturity to a fundamentally conservative vision of social harmony, yet forever complicating this vision through the disruptive ironies and satirical energies of her prose.

    Coming Full Circle is a detailed, informative guide on using psychedelics to heal that is intertwined with a deeply personal memoir of the authors own journey of healing. It will empower its listeners with a greater understanding of the true potential, limitations, risks, and nuances to the process of using psychedelics to heal trauma. 
    With each passing year, new evidence of the immense healing potential psychedelics offer for anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, and more emerge from credible studies and research groups. As the excitement grows, so too does the often dangerous misinformation generated by profiteers and pseudo experts. A fierce protector of those who are utilizing psychedelics as a way to heal their emotional wounds and trauma, Shannon Duncan knows firsthand the courage, determination, and vulnerability required to approach emotional healing in this specialized way. 
    "Coming Full Circle comes at a time when many are considering trying psychedelics as a means to healing their trauma. This book gives an unflinching, realistic look at what treatment resistant trauma can look like and takes the reader on a journey of healing with a raw, painfully honest delivery. It’s a powerful tale of healing emotional wounds and trauma with the help of psychedelics.” 
    -Rick Doblin, PhD, (Founder and President of MAPS, Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies) 
    “When it comes to psychedelic experiences and the management of trauma, Shannon Duncan has walked the walk. What he shares in Coming Full Circle, the result of years of direct engagement at the heart of the mystery, is both deeply healing and richly informative. Highly recommended.” 
    - Graham Hancock, author of The Divine Spark and Fingerprints of the Gods.
