O Come Emmanuel
This beautifully illustrated, full-colour daily Advent companion explores the ancient biblical names and images for the coming Messiah familiar to most people from the hymn, ‘O come, O come Emmanuel’. Well-known writers offer a total of twenty-four reflections, one for each weekday of the four weeks of Advent. The writers each offer three reflections on one of the seven antiphons: O Wisdom, O Adonai, O Root of Jesse, O Key of David, O Morning Star, O King of the Nations, O Emmanuel. Lastly, there are three reflections on the Magnificat – Mary’s Song – which the antiphons have been heard alongside since at least the eighth century. Each day includes the text of the antiphon from Common Worship, a Scripture reading exploring its biblical roots, paintings of the antiphon as a focus for meditation, a reflection, a challenge to ponder and an Advent prayer. The volume also includes an introduction explaining the rich history of the antiphons, recommendations for further resources including musical settings as well as suggestions for how to use the antiphons in local worship and study groups.
Reconstruction in Mississippi, 1862-1877
Throughout the ten-year period following the end of the Civil War, Mississippians responded to broader movements in the country, to changes in the national and international economy, and to congressional and presidential initiatives as they worked to recover from the devastation of war and pursue new expressions of freedom. Reconstruction in Mississippi, 1862–1877 is a compelling account of how Black Mississippians embraced this freedom and how white Mississippians could not. Recording the mechanics of how the Confederate states were allowed to resume representation in Congress, the restoration of civil governments, and the political freedoms the formerly enslaved people acquired, Reconstruction in Mississippi, 1862–1877 documents the ways economic freedoms, such as the acquisition of land and the negotiation of fair labor contracts, evolved. Jere Nash begins this exploration with how the formerly enslaved men and women changed the political landscape for Abraham Lincoln by taking matters into their own hands as the Union Army moved into Mississippi in 1862. Nash then traces the federal occupation of the state, the adoption of the infamous Black Codes by the state legislature in 1865, the drafting and approval of the new constitution in 1869, the selection of the first two Black men to ever serve in the United States Senate, and the use of terror and fraud by white Democrats to steal the election of 1875 and regain political power. Reconstruction in Mississippi, 1862–1877 is a detailed and comprehensive history of this turbulent and eventful era in Mississippi.
Black, British and De-churched
Why are some black people leaving mainstream churches and joining alternative Black Bible Religions? With increasing numbers of Black Brits becoming attracted to Afroasiatic Diasporic Religions such as Rastafari and the Holy Qubtic Church, there is an urgent need to explore the various questions, experiences, and ideas of these individuals.In Black, British and De-churched, Dr Eleasah Louis argues that these trends illuminate significant gaps in mainstream UK church life where there is a failure to respond meaningfully to racism. In response to this challenge, she provides insights to challenge and support evangelism, discipleship, teaching and reconciliation in British churches.
After Savagery
Written during a genocide, After Savagery reveals the ethical bankruptcy of “Western philosophy” and how it undergirds the erasure of the colonized.The death toll in Gaza continues to rise?a cold, lifeless number representing entire communities crushed under the weight of settler colonialism.What remains of the theories we use to understand our world? With lyrical and lucid fury, Hamid Dabashi exposes the racist roots of Western philosophy, demanding that readers overcome its pernicious phantom of relevance. Rather than perceiving “the West” as giving carte blanche to Israel, Dabashi insists that Israel must be understood as its quintessence.If Israel is the West and the West is Israel, then Palestine is the world and the world is Palestine. Holding to glimmers from revolutionary works of literature and film, Dabashi argues, in grief and love, that the wretched of the earth need poetry after barbarism—and that Palestine is the site of a liberated imagination.

Behind The Lines with The SBS
Formed in 1940 as Special Boat Section and later amalgamated into 1st SAS Regiment as part of Colonel David Stirling’s expansion, the famed SBS were a commando unit designed to carry out amphibious raids on Axis occupied territory during WW2.Originally referred to by Stirling as the ‘Folboat Section’ and reconstituted as the Special Boat Squadron under the command of Captain Earl George Jellicoe, the SBS set about causing havoc in the enemy held islands of the Aegean.This is the personal account of one man, Desmond Marshall, who in late 1943 was recruited as a signaller into L Squadron SBS.Written in the years following the war and undiscovered until over half a century later, it is only now this unique account of wartime life in the SBS is being revealed in his own words.Join Des and L Squadron on their daring adventures behind enemy lines in this detailed and riveting, never before told story.
Saint Dominic and His Mission
Saint Dominic had dedicated himself to a life of prayer and study as a canon regular at the Cathedral of Osma, Spain in 1197. When on a diplomatic mission through southern France, Dominic and his bishop, Diego, encountered the Cathar heresy. The Spaniards were filled with compassion and sought to counter this heresy by preaching and the example of their holy life. In the ensuing years, and with ecclesiastical approval, Dominic would gather around him a group of men, living a common life in evangelical poverty and dedicated to preaching for the salvation of souls, these were the first members of the Order of Preachers, commonly known as Dominicans. In Saint Dominic and His Mission, two of Saint Dominic's spiritual sons present a portrait of this Preacher of Grace using extensive research from the archives of the Order to present Dominic and his brethren in their historical context. The first section comprises two parts: a biographical sketch and an evaluation of hagiographic and historical accounts of the life of St. Dominic. It is said that St. Dominic's gift to the Church is not extensive writings, but a way of life. The second section describes aspects of this distinctly evangelical form life including study and preaching, fraternal life, choral office and the rosary, democratic government, and living in the heart of the Church. In the third section, the authors enlist the help of art historians who present multiple pieces of artwork, ancient and modern, to better know and understand this Doctor of Truth. The final section is a chronology of the life of St. Dominic based on the work of the renowned English Dominic Simon Tugwell, OP. Readers will find that Saint Dominic, whose life and preaching was centered on the Word Incarnate, is a perfect friend and guide to us today as we experience a revival in reverence for the Eucharist and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
In Pursuit of the Inconceivable
In Pursuit of the Inconceivabl? s a compelling exploration of fundamental questions about existence, reality, and the meaning of life that challenges the traditional scepticism of Western thought. It presents evidence for a systematic, comprehensive, and fundamental world-theory, and places the reader in a position to judge its merits and plausibility for themselves. Peter G. Jones explains the ongoing failure of Wester? hilosophers to comprehend metaphysics as a consequence of no? ngaging with the only world-theory that survives analysis, the on? ndorsed by the writers of the Indian Upanishads,?the Buddha, Lao Tzu, Meister Eckhart and, many would say, Jesus and Muhammad. The findings of philosophers in the Western analytical ?rational? tradition are compared with the teachings of the Perennial tradition and shown to be in complete harmony. In Pursuit of the Inconceivabl? resents a philosophical explanation of mysticism, an apology for Abrahamic religion, a solution for all metaphysical problems, and an appeal for a significant change of attitude in the academic and scientific communities.
The Remarkable Madame Pandit
A pioneering politician and diplomat, Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit (1900–1990) was an Indian icon, admired worldwide for her brilliance and glamour. Eleanor Roosevelt called her “the most remarkable woman” she had ever met. Madame Pandit, as she was widely known, moved in elite global circles even as she worked to improve the lives of millions. She traded quips with Winston Churchill, worked alongside Albert Einstein, and was detained for the attempted assassination of Benito Mussolini. She even came out of retirement to campaign against her own niece, Indira Gandhi, to stop an authoritarian takeover and save Indian democracy. The Remarkable Madame Pandit is the definitive biography of India’s greatest modern diplomat. Manu Bhagavan chronicles Pandit’s life and times, from her upbringing in an illustrious family to her role in her country’s fight for independence and through her globe-trotting career bridging East and West. Pandit was India’s first woman cabinet minister, an ambassador to the United States and the Soviet Union, and the first woman elected president of the UN General Assembly. Her influence extended well beyond these formal roles: she became one of the most prominent international voices for peace while paving the way for women in many fields. Based on eight years of research using material in five languages from seven countries, this book tells Madame Pandit’s gripping story in full—and in so doing, retells the history of India and the world in the twentieth century.

The Making of Cossack Ukraine
Both modern Ukrainian nationhood and the historical preconditions of the country’s contemporary conflict with Russia are rooted in a complex period of development in Cossack Ukraine. The Making of Cossack Ukraine traces the evolution of early modern Ukrainian political thought and culture from their sixteenth-century origins to 1714. Early modern Ukraine was home to a multitude of interrelated political cultures, including those of the Ruthenian nobility, the Kyivan clergy, and the Cossacks. Zenon Kohut shows how constant interplay between these cultures contributed to the development of political, territorial, religious, ethnic, and national collective visions that reflected early modern concepts of nation, state, and identity. Two persistent narratives – the idea of Ukrainian autonomy and perpetual rights, and the idea of a continuous “Russian” tsardom stemming from medieval times – formed the foundation for not only Ukrainian state and nation building but also Russia’s modern identity and sense of nationhood, creating the ideological underpinning for Russian imperialism. Based in a classical analysis of ethnic, religious, and political ideas developed by early modern Ukrainian intellectuals, The Making of Cossack Ukraine brings to light the origins of present-day Ukrainian political thought.
Lady Constance Lytton
Prisons, as you know, have been my hobby wrote the prominent suffragette Lady Constance Bulwer-Lytton. An influential British activist as well as a writer, speaker and campaigner for votes for women - and not forgetting prison reform - Constance Lytton was born in Vienna and spent the first eleven years of her life in India (her father was the Viceroy). After meeting a number of suffragettes, particularly at the Esperance Club and including Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence, Constance took on the 'hobby' of prison reform. She later demonstrated at the House of Commons, along with fellow suffragettes and was arrested, imprisoned, but subsequently released due to her social position and health. Whilst in Holloway Prison in March 1909, she carved the outline of a V on her chest. Outraged by the treatment of fellow suffragettes of a lower class, in January 1910 she took on the pseudonym of Jane Warton to avoid release and suffered much mistreatment, including forcible feeding, at the hands of the prison warders. She was to include these experiences in her book, Prisons and Prisoners. Constance Lytton died in 1923 after many health complications, but with the knowledge that (some) women over the age of 30 had finally been given the right to vote.
Progressive Women's Movements in Austria and Hungary
At the dawn of the twentieth century, three trailblazing women's associations emerged from the Austro-Hungarian middle class: Vienna's Allgemeiner österreichischer Frauenverein (AöF) and Budapest's closely linked Notisztviselok Országos Egyesülete (NOE) and Feministák Egyesülete (FE). Spearheaded by educated professional women, these groups championed progressive and often radical ideals, forging robust international connections with other women's movements. However, the shifting political landscapes in Austria and Hungary eventually led to their decline and near-erasure from history. In Progressive Women's Movements in Austria and Hungary, Dóra Fedeles-Czeferner dives deeply into these movements, transcending conscribed national narratives to uncover the daily workings of these Austrian bourgeois-liberal and Hungarian feminist organizations. She reveals how they both influenced and were influenced by international activism. Unlike their contemporaries in the Christian-Social and Socialist Democratic women's movements, the AöF, NOE, and FE operated independently of official political parties, leveraging the influential connections of their leaders and using strategic publicity to garner support. Despite their mutual inspirations and connections, these organizations had significant differences. They varied in their origins, their ability to engage rural members, and their strategies for achieving their goals. Fedeles-Czeferner employs entangled history methodologies to examine these organizations' foundations, key figures, memberships, objectives, and activities from the beginning of the 20th century until the beginning of the 1920s. By challenging regional narratives that have marginalized these radical women's movements, she reconnects Austria-Hungary's pre-war feminist past to its transnational roots, revealing their true historical significance.
Anatomické kartičky - Kosti, ligamenta

Šťastné náhody
Koľkokrát sme už niečo hľadali a našli sme niečo úplne iné? Partnerku, partnera, prácu či nejakú vec. Vedcom sa to stáva často, že pracujú na konkrétnom experimente a objavia niečo neočakávané, čo sa zvyčajne ukáže ako veľmi dôležité alebo prevratné. Tento fascinujúci úkaz sa v angličtine nazýva serendipity, podľa názvu bájneho Serendipu, miesta, z ktorého sa podľa perzskej bájky traja princovia vybrali objavovať svet, pričom sa im počas cesty pošťastilo urobiť náhodné objavy. V histórii vedy sa týmto spôsobom uskutočnilo mnoho veľkých objavov. V tejto knihe však nenájdete zvyčajný zoznam anekdot od penicilínu po röntgenové lúče, od Krištofa Kolumba až po mikrovlnnú rúru. Najprekvapivejšie príbehy o náhode odhaľujú hlboké aspekty logiky vedeckého objavu. Nie je to len šťastie, náhoda vzniká zmesou zvedavosti a prefíkanosti, prezieravosti, predstavivosti a náhodných udalostí. Šťastné náhody nám predovšetkým prezrádzajú, že sme nevedeli, že nevieme. Po viacerých svojich úspešných publikáciách nás Telmo Pievani sprevádza pútavým príbehom nápadu. Od Zadiga po Sherlocka Holmesa nás mnohí hrdinovia šťastných náhod učia, že príroda tam vonku je vždy väčšia ako naše vedomosti.

Autori spracovali prehľadnú učebnicu reagujúcu na spomínané legislatívne zmeny a pri jej tvorbe vychádzali z dlhoročných teoretických a praktických skúseností. Pri tvorbe učebnice autori rešpektovali systematiku Trestného zákona, ako aj systematiku a pozitívne skúsenosti z doteraz vydaných slovenských a českých učebníc trestného práva hmotného. Systematika učebnice vychádza z obsahu predmetu trestné právo hmotné. Autori v jednotlivých kapitolách zrozumiteľným spôsobom vysvetľujú jednotlivé trestnoprávne inštitúty. Výklad je doplnený aj o názory zahraničných autorov. Pre didaktické účely autori predkladajú čitateľovi praktické príklady a výklad dopĺňajú aj relevantnou judikatúrou.

Obnova konania v trestnom procese
...Monografiu možno označiť za podrobnú sondu do inštitútu obnovy konania, ktorá prináša ucelený pohľad na problematiku tohto v aplikačnej praxi pomerne často využívaného mimoriadneho opravného prostriedku. Navyše ide o potrebnú monografiu, ktorá doposiaľ na odbornom trhu absentovala, pretože inštitút obnovy konania je jedným z mála právnych prostriedkov, ako zvrátiť už právoplatné rozhodnutie súdu či orgánu činného v trestnom konaní.
JUDr. Peter Šamko
...Monografia predstavuje vzhľadom na vysokú kvalitu jednotlivých kapitol, odbornosť koncipovania textu a precíznosť jej spracovania zdroj cenných informácií pre odbornú verejnosť, pričom môže prispieť k rozvoju právnej vedy v analyzovanej oblasti a vzhľadom na svoj značne praktický charakter má mimoriadnu hodnotu a prínos aj pre aplikačnú prax.
doc. JUDr. Eva Szabová, PhD.
...Osobitne vyzdvihujem, že autori spracovali aj špecifické otázky, ako napr. obnovu konania pri niektorom z trestných činov, za ktoré bol právoplatne uložený úhrnný trest alebo súhrnný trest.
doc. JUDr. et PhDr. mult. Libor Klimek, PhD., Dr. h. c.
