Kaspar Hauser - The Boy Without a Past

Thomas Loki

Sinopsis

In 1828, a teenage boy appeared in the streets of Nuremberg, barely able to walk or speak. He carried a mysterious letter but had no memory of his past, no knowledge of the world, and no understanding of where he had come from. His name was Kaspar Hauser, and his sudden arrival became one of the most baffling mysteries in European history.
 
 
 
Was he a lost prince hidden away to protect a royal secret or an unfortunate orphan subjected to years of isolation? Was he the victim of a cruel experiment or a pawn in a political conspiracy? As scholars, scientists, and nobility tried to unravel his past, Kaspar's story only grew stranger, leading to an eerie and tragic ending that left more questions than answers.
 
 
 
This book explores the life, theories, and legacy of Kaspar Hauser, a boy without a past whose true identity remains an enigma.

Creating Space - Story...

Sacha Pearce, Jan Collis

Creating Space tells a professional and personal story of healthcare chaplaincy and models the way in which practice development emerges from reflecting on the human story. This book reveals to healthcare, the Church and the community, the unique role of the chaplain’s experiences as a resource to others. It is written for professional practitioners, prompting their own contextual learning and development, whether as chaplains, pastoral carers, parish clergy, lay ministers, volunteers in any caring context, those who work in listening therapies, those who provide care and support to others of any kind, or those who use or teach reflective practice.

 
The authors connect in a straightforward way their view of healthcare chaplaincy as a model of practical theology, based on key practical theologians who see the human story as a source of learning. They outline their own reflective practice tool for learning and share the way in which they see each pastoral encounter as a reflective source of learning. They discover how their experiences have developed the discernment process for chaplaincy vocation, urging the Church to see beyond the parish model in today’s world.

Now, Elias must race across continents to evade The Cadre, decipher Vivian’s final, devastating secrets, and confront his creator to save the family he never knew he had.

Shakespeare Without a Life

Margreta de Grazia

A fascinating account of how Shakespeare's works were understood and valued by readers and writers from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century, before Shakespeare's biography came to dominate readings of his plays and poetry. 
 
 
 
For almost two centuries after his death, Shakespeare had no biography. The makings of one were not available. No chronology had been devised by which to coordinate the events in his life with the writing of his works. Nor was there an archive of primary materials on which to base a life. And the only work by Shakespeare written in the first person, the Sonnets, had yet to be critically edited and incorporated into the canon. Without a biography, how could Shakespeare have been valued and understood? 
 
 
 
In Shakespeare Without a Life, Margreta de Grazia looks at aspects of Shakespeare's reception between 1600 and 1800 that have been all but lost to the now still prevailing biographical impulse. It recovers the anecdote as a form of literary criticism, retrieves the ancient category of genre as the canon's organizing rubric, demonstrates how the quest for authentic documents invalidated other forms of literary record, and reveals how the desire to forge connections between Shakespeare's life and the Sonnets occluded his self-presentation as the 'deceasèd I' of a posthumous poet.
