Mary on the Eve of the Second Vatican Council (9780268101589)

The Blessed Virgin Mary is uniquely associated with Catholicism, and the century preceding the Second Vatican Council was arguably the most fertile era for Catholic Marian studies. In 1964, Pope John Paul VI published the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, or Lumen Gentium (LG), the eighth chapter of which presents the most comprehensive magisterial teaching on the Blessed Virgin Mary. As part of its Marian Initiative, the Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame invited scholars to a conference held at Notre Dame in October 2013 to reflect the rich Marian legacy on the eve of the Second Vatican Council. The essays unanimously stress that the Blessed Virgin Mary is not merely a peripheral figure in Christian faith and in the panorama of theology. More than fifty years after Lumen Gentium, students of theology as well as Marian devotees take their bearings from this document in order to promote the person of Mary and the study of Mariology, as well as grow in authenti...

Das achte Leben (Für Brilka) (9783627002084)



Georgien, 1900: Mit der Geburt Stasias, Tochter eines angesehenen Schokoladenfabrikanten, beginnt dieses berauschende Opus über sechs Generationen. Stasia wächst in der wohlhabenden Oberschicht auf und heiratet jung den Weißgardisten Simon Jaschi, der am Vorabend der Oktoberrevolution nach Petrograd versetzt wird, weit weg von seiner Frau. Als Stalin an die Macht kommt, sucht Stasia mit ihren beiden Kindern Kitty und Kostja in Tbilissi Schutz bei ihrer Schwester Christine, die bekannt ist für ihre atemberaubende Schönheit. Doch als der Geheimdienstler Lawrenti Beria auf sie aufmerksam wird, hat das fatale Folgen.
Deutschland, 2006: Nach dem Fall der Mauer und der Auflösung der UdSSR herrscht in Georgien Bürgerkrieg. Niza, Stasias hochintelligente Urenkelin, hat mit ihrer Familie gebrochen und ist nach Berlin ausgewandert. Als ihre zwölfjährige Nichte Brilka nach einer Reise in den Westen nicht mehr nach Tbilissi zurückkehren möchte, spürt Niza sie auf. Ihr wird sie die ganze Geschichte erzählen: von Stasia, die still den Zeiten trotzt, von Christine, die für ihre Schönheit einen hohen Preis zahlt, von Kitty, der alles genommen wird und die doch in London eine Stimme findet, von Kostja, der den Verlockungen der Macht verfällt und die Geschicke seiner Familie lenkt, von Kostjas rebellischer Tochter Elene und deren Töchtern Daria und Niza und von der Heißen Schokolade nach der Geheimrezeptur des Schokoladenfabrikanten, die für sechs Generationen Rettung und Unglück zugleich bereithält.

Franny and Zooey (9780316769495)

Perhaps the best book by the foremost stylist of his generation (New York Times), J. D. Salinger's Franny and Zooey collects two works of fiction about the Glass family originally published in The New Yorker. Everything everybody does is so--I don't know--not wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless and--sad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you're conforming just as much only in a different way. A novel in two halves, Franny and Zooey brilliantly captures the emotional strains and traumas of entering adulthood. It is a gleaming example of the wit, precision, and poignancy that have made J. D. Salinger one of America's most beloved writers. Product details Format Paperback ...
