Eagles Mere is a remote village which sits at a high point in the Allegheny Mountains of north central Pennsylvania, located in the second least populated county in the state. Tucked in among state game lands and state forest, one side of the mountain drains into the Loyalsock Creek, 1,200 feet lower, and the other side empties 1,300 feet below the summit into Muncy Creek. Although much of surrounding Sullivan County is forested and takes its culture from the eastern mountain region, Eagles Mere has been a retreat for the gentry from Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and Baltimore since the late nineteenth century. Bankers and businessmen built large summer homes in the early 20th century to take advantage of the pristine lake. The other, year-round residents of the region take their recreation in cabins owned by hunting clubs, in search of whitetail deer and black bear in the fall.
Although railroad shareholders built a narrow-gauge railway to the Victorian resort hotels at the summit of the mountain, a federal two-lane highway designated the Appalachian Throughway now runs at its base. U.S. 220 weaves among wooden houses along the creeks. These year-round houses in the valleys represent a practical and traditional eastern mountain architecture. The design of the valley houses differs from the more formal style of the mountaintop cottages, which are often owned by those who live most of the year in cities. Bowhunters and bankers; high mileage four-wheel drive Ford pickup trucks and new Chevrolet Suburbans with high-tech strollers; year-round loggers and seasonal urban refugees, all populate the mountain.
Eagles Mere and Sullivan County are a photographer's delight, blending mountain overlooks, covered bridges, waterfalls, ten-bedroom cottages from the early twentieth century, traditional mountain architecture, lake views, sailboats and kayaks. Go down the back roads in the county, and the landscape looks decidedly Appalachian, as old farm houses with fading paint, big barns, and gravel byways become the norm.
Eagles Mere has been captured well in online digital photography by highly regarded local photographers Julie Stauffer and Rick Liebert. Prints by professional photographer Terry Wild hang prominently in public spaces on the mountain. There are excellent local history books with old Eagles Mere photographs from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
This book is the first generally available publication of contemporary, twenty-first century Eagles Mere photographs. It represents my work from 2014 through 2019, six years of exploring the mountain and the surrounding counties. Having come to Eagles Mere since 1960, I am guilty of some nostalgia for an earlier time of spending two unstructured months every summer, wandering the woods and swimming at the beach. The photos here are all mine, and reflect my judgment of what is arresting, fascinating, or representative. I have mostly chosen the pretty over the gritty, but you will find some backroads selections which show the diversity of the county and suggest the deeper needs of its year-round community. If you choose to look a bit closer in Sullivan County, you will find where Brigadoon's gauzy periphery meets a traditional eastern mountain culture.

Описание: Theresa Welford`s Trans-Atlantic Connections: The Movement and New Formalism is the first book to explore the important connections between the brash young British writers who coalesced into a controversial poetic and critical movement in the 1950s and the brash young American writers who coalesced into an equally controversial movement in the 1980s.
Across the medieval and early modern eras, new rulers were celebrated with increasingly elaborate coronations and inaugurations that symbolically conferred legitimacy and political power upon them. Many historians have considered rituals like these as irrelevant to understanding modern governance—an idea that this volume challenges through illuminating case studies focused on the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Habsburg lands. Taking the formal elasticity of these events as the key to their lasting relevance, the contributors explore important questions around their political, legal, social, and cultural significance and their curious persistence as a historical phenomenon over time.

Lewis: A Guide to Mere Christianity for Small Groups and Mentoring Relationships ISBN: 1543995233 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781543995237 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 24290.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: In Discipleship with C.S. Lewis, Dr. Joel Woodruff, President of the C.S. Lewis Institute has provided a practical guide to understanding and living out the core teachings and practices of the Christian faith through short readings from the Bible and C.S. Lewiss classic, Mere Christianity. Perfect for use by believers and seekers alike, it has been designed for use in mentoring relationships and small group settings. Discipleship with C.S. Lewis, as opposed to more academic or apologetics-oriented studies of Mere Christianity, is written with a view toward practical Christian discipleship of heart and mind. Mere Christianity, named the most influential Christian book of the 20th century by Christianity Today, has often been used as an apologetics and evangelistic tool, but at its core it is a discipleship training manual for followers of Jesus Christ. This engaging study will help participants develop an understanding of the biblical passages behind the main themes and ideas presented in Lewiss writing. Participants will be encouraged to apply the takeaways in each session through concrete steps that influence their daily lives and help them become more faithful and fruitful disciples of Jesus Christ. If C.S. Lewis were present with us today, he would probably take great pleasure knowing that his writings on "mere Christianity" continue to train men and women to spread the love and good news of the Gospel in the midst of "enemy-occupied territory."

The life and times of C. S. Lewis's modern spiritual classic
Mere Christianity, C. S. Lewis's eloquent defense of the Christian faith, originated as a series of BBC radio talks broadcast during the dark days of World War Two. Here is the story of the extraordinary life and afterlife of this influential and inspiring book. George Marsden describes how Lewis gradually went from being an atheist to a committed Anglican--famously converting to Christianity in 1931 after conversing into the night with his friends J. R. R. Tolkien and Hugh Dyson--and how his plainspoken case for Christianity went on to become one of the most beloved spiritual books of all time.
