Sinopse

In the annals of history, the reigns of Mary, Queen of Scots, and Elizabeth I of England stand as a captivating tale of power, rivalry, and resilience. This book delves into the enthralling saga of these two iconic monarchs, shedding light on their triumphs, their trials, and the enduring impact of their reigns.

Mary, Queen of Scots, ascended to the throne at a tender age, inheriting a kingdom divided by religious strife and political turmoil. Her reign was marked by a series of challenges, including rebellion and the machinations of ambitious nobles. Yet, she displayed remarkable strength and resilience, earning the admiration of her people.

Across the border, Elizabeth I ascended to the English throne in 1558, inheriting a nation on the brink of transformation. A Protestant monarch in a predominantly Catholic country, Elizabeth faced numerous threats to her authority, including plots by Catholic conspirators and the ambitions of foreign powers. With her intelligence, wit, and unwavering determination, she steered England through a period of unprecedented prosperity and power.

The relationship between Mary and Elizabeth was a complex interplay of rivalry, suspicion, and grudging respect. Both women were intelligent, resourceful, and fiercely independent, and they recognized in each other a formidable adversary. Their struggle for supremacy would shape the course of history, leaving an indelible mark on their nations and the world.

Their stories are a testament to the complexities of power, the vagaries of fate, and the enduring legacy of two of history's most remarkable women. This book explores the intricate web of events that shaped their lives, their triumphs and defeats, their moments of glory and their hours of despair. Through their stories, we gain a deeper understanding of the human experience in the face of adversity and the profound impact of leadership on the course of history.

Immerse yourself in this captivating historical narrative and witness firsthand the drama, intrigue, and power struggles that defined the era of Mary, Queen of Scots, and Elizabeth I. This book promises a journey through time, offering a fresh perspective on two of history's most iconic figures and the enduring legacy of their reigns.

    "As a major fan and promoter of Julian of Norwich, whom I call 'my favorite mystic', it is genuinely exciting to find such a faithful but freeing translation of Julian's long-lost Showings. Now they are no longer lost—for anyone!" —Fr. Richard Rohr, O.F.M., Center for Action and ContemplationIn this contemporary translation of one of the most beloved and influential mystical texts of all time, Julian of Norwich: The Showings brings the message and spirituality of this 14th-century mystic to 21st-century readers. Revelations of Divine Love, the first book published in English attributed to a woman, is also included.Julian of Norwich, a contemporary of Geoffrey Chaucer, was an English anchoress in East Anglia. At the age of 30, suffering from a severe illness and believing she was on her deathbed, Julian had a series of intense visions of Jesus, which she recorded and then expanded on later in her life. In her visions, God was not angry and wrathful. Instead, the three properties of God were presented as life, love, and light, and all of His creation was good, including his servant, man. In Julian's version, man is not to blame for his sin; sin is something that he must experience and overcome in his spiritual journey with God.Her message for today's readers is simply this:She reveals the feminine face of the Divine and reminds us to see God there.All our failings are an opportunity to learn and grow; they should be honored, but not dwelled upon.God's love has nothing to do with love and retribution and everything to do with love and compassion.In spite of all appearances, all is well. This book contains some of the most profound spiritual writing ever written and remains a perennial favorite among Christians.This book was previously published as The Showings of Julian of Norwich. This new edition includes a foreword by Richard Rohr, author of Falling Upwards.

    Deborah Dundas is a journalist who grew up poor and almost didn’t make it to university. In On Class, she talks to writers, activists, those who work with the poor and those who are poor about what happens when we don’t talk about poverty or class—and what will happen when we do.
    		 
    Growing up poor, Deborah Dundas knew what it meant to want, to be hungry, and to long for social and economic dignity; she understood the crushing weight of having nothing much expected of you. But even after overcoming many of the usual barriers faced by lower- and working-class people, she still felt anxious about her place, and even in relatively safe spaces reluctant to broach the subject of class. While new social movements have generated open conversation about gender and racism, discussions of class rarely include the voices of those most deeply affected: the working class and poor. 
    On Class is an exploration of the ways in which we talk about class: of who tells the stories, and who doesn’t, which ones tend to be repeated most often, and why this has to change. It asks the question: What don’t we talk about when we don’t talk about class? And what might happen if, finally, we did?
