Описание: 1898. New York socialite Emma Harlow agrees to marry well-to-do Montgomery Gilmore, but only if he first accepts her audacious challenge: to reproduce the Martian invasion featured in H. G. Wells s popular novel The War of the Worlds. Meanwhile in London, Wells himself is unexpectedly made privy to certain objects, apparently of extraterrestrial origin, that were discovered decades earlier on an ill-fated expedition to the Antarctic. On that same expedition was an American crew member named Edgar Allan Poe, whose inexplicable experiences in the frozen wasteland would ultimately inspire him to create one of his most enduring works of literature. When eerie, alien-looking cylinders begin appearing in London, Wells is certain it is all part of some elaborate hoax. But soon, to his great horror, he realizes that a true invasion of Earth has indeed begun. As brave bands of citizens converge on a crumbling London to defend it against utter ruin, Emma and her suitor must confront the enigma that is their love, a bright spark of hope even against the darkening light of apocalypse. Palma dazzled readers with his instant New York Times bestseller The Map of Time. In The Map of the Sky, he embarks on an even more thrilling speculative journey, one that links the earth and the heavens, the familiar and the bizarre, the impossible and the inevitable."

Описание: From the New York Times bestselling author of The Map of Time and The Map of the Sky, the final installment in the award-winning trilogy that The Washington Post called "a big, genre-bending delight." When the person he loves most dies in tragic circumstances, the mysterious protagonist of The Map of Chaos does all he can to speak to her one last time. A session with a renowned medium seems to offer the only solution, but the experience unleashes terrible forces that bring the world to the brink of disaster. Salvation can only be found in The Map of Chaos, an obscure, hand-written mathematical treatise that he is desperate to uncover. In his search, he is given invaluable help by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Lewis Carroll, and of course by H.G. Wells, whose Invisible Man seems to have escaped from the pages of his famous novel to sow terror among mankind. They alone can discover the means to save the world and to find the path that will reunite the lovers separated by death. Proving once again that he is "a master of ingenious plotting" (Kirkus Reviews), F lix J. Palma brings together a cast of real and imagined literary characters in Victorian London, when spiritualism is at its height. The Map of Chaos is a spellbinding adventure that mixes impossible loves, nonstop action, real ghosts, and fake mediums, all while paying homage to the giants of science fiction.

Автор: De La Palma Luis Название: The History of the Sacred Passion: new edition with enhanced text ISBN: 0956452647 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780956452641 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 17650.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
The History of the Sacred Passion (also known as The Sacred Passion) by Luis de la Palma (Spain, 1559-1641) was first published in 1624 in Spain, and has been a steady and continuous resource in the 400 years since. It is one of the most influential theological yet accessible reflections on Our Lord's suffering and death and guides the reader into a historical, spiritual and at the same time practical exploration of the week leading up to Jesus Christ's crucifixion, death and burial.
This edition presents de la Palma's classic work for the first time in a clear and improved format in english. Using various enhancements, it brings it closer to the 21st century reader by making its narrative easier to read and follow, but without changing the excellent and enduring 1872 english translation by Henry James Coleridge (save in a very few instances when recourse has had to be made to the spanish original in order to render its proper essence to today's audience).
For example:
- latin texts have been maintained and presented in such a way that they are unobtrusive (in the ebook version, they are shown in red; in the print, in a distinct typeface) and allow the reader to more easily advance and effectively follow the overall narrative; - latin texts originally without english translation, or whose meaning cannot be directly discerned from the contextual english text, have been translated, with the english translation presented between curly brackets; - various english words have been shown in a more relatable spelling where the original might today be confusing; - its chapters have been conveniently separated into sub-chapters with headings, following La Palma's original, to facilitate a more comfortable reading; - praise for La Palma's work has been sourced from the 17th century through to the 20th and presented in the early pages; - typography and layout have been carefully designed such that reading is easier and comfortable on the eye;
and so on. Where the original latin text is a scriptural quote, the Douay-Rheims bible version english translation has been used.
It is hoped that the reader reap the many benefits that this classic work of a wholly accessible Christian theology so engrossingly offers; a significant reason why La Palma's book has remained doggedly relevant to this day.

Автор: Gaetano Di Palma Название: Cristo primizia dei morti e la risurrezione dei credenti: Studio su 1Cor 15 ISBN: 3034315228 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783034315227 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 84480.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Nel libro si commenta il capitolo 15 della Prima Lettera ai Corinzi. I greci ammettevano una risurrezione corporea a condizione che si trattasse di un uomo caro agli dei e con il corpo ancora incorrotto. Si spiega, pertanto, la difficolta di alcuni tra i corinzi: essi accettavano la risurrezione di Cristo, ma non quella dei credenti alla fine dei tempi. Seguendo l’argomentazione che si sviluppa con gradualita nel capitolo 15 di 1Cor, nel saggio si cerca di far emergere con chiarezza la risposta di Paolo, il quale dimostra di non essere ignaro della cultura del proprio tempo e di servirsene per spiegare il «mistero», secondo cui non tutti i cristiani moriranno, ma tutti dovranno essere trasformati. Al termine del libro, infine, sono ripercorsi i primi secoli dell’era cristiana trattando alcuni autori che si sono dedicati a tale tema e, in particolare, hanno citato questo testo paolino.
