Sinossi

The Empire and the Papacy, 918–1273 by T. F. Tout is a landmark work that explores the fierce contest for supremacy between the Holy Roman Emperors and the medieval Papacy. First published in 1909, this classic study traces the rise of the Ottonian dynasty, the dramatic Investiture Controversy, and the final clash between Frederick II and the papal power that shaped the fate of medieval Europe. With clear, engaging prose, Tout reveals how this prolonged struggle defined the political and spiritual landscape of Christendom for centuries to come.      Tout’s balanced and accessible narrative examines both the ambitions of emperors seeking to consolidate authority and the Papacy’s efforts to assert moral and political leadership. He brings to life the tangled alliances, ideological battles, and human dramas that lay behind some of Europe’s most consequential conflicts. Readers will gain a vivid understanding of the complex forces—religious, social, and political—that forged European identity and shaped its institutional traditions.     This Classicus edition offers T. F. Tout’s enduring study in a beautifully crafted volume designed for modern readers. Ideal for students, scholars, and anyone fascinated by medieval history, The Empire and the Papacy remains an essential introduction to the defining power struggle of the Middle Ages. Discover a compelling narrative that explains not only the rivalry of emperors and popes but the birth of Europe’s enduring balance of secular and spiritual authority.

    A Nation Fermented - Beer...

    How did beer become one of the central commodities associated with the German nation? How did a little-known provincial production standard—the Reinheitsgebot, or Beer Purity Law—become a pillar of national consumer sentiments? How did the jovial, beer-drinking German become a fixture in the global imagination? 
     
     
     
    While the connection between beer and Germany seems self-evident, A Nation Fermented reveals how it was produced through a strange brew of regional commercial and political pressures. Spanning from the late nineteenth century to the last decades of the twentieth, A Nation Fermented argues that the economic, regulatory, and cultural weight of Bavaria shaped the German nation in profound ways. Drawing on sources from over a dozen archives and repositories, Terrell weaves together subjects ranging from tax law to advertising, public health to European integration, and agriculture to global stereotypes. 
     
     
     
    Offering a history of the Germany that Bavaria made over the twentieth century, A Nation Fermented both eschews sharp temporal divisions and forgoes conventional narratives centered on Prussia, Berlin, or the Rhineland. In so doing, Terrell offers a fresh take on the importance of provincial influences and the role of commodities and commerce in shaping the nation.

    We all have moments, hours, days when our minds are stuck somewhere unpleasant that we can't get out of and it feels like we're living in a constant state of worry. We may be thinking about what is happening tomorrow or five minutes ago. We may wonder about things that happened in the past and regret them. As a result, we lose sight of what's happening now-now-now. And because we're so focused on our worries rather than the current moment, these anxious thoughts just continue to feed off each other as they go 'round and round in circles in our heads. 
    As a result, we may feel that our minds are always racing and it's impossible for us to slow them down. This takes us away from the present moment.
