Book Description
All she thought she ever wanted was freedom. Desperate for the chance to make her mark upon a world, Ariagne sneaks aboard the shuttle of the new justiciar of Elysion, intent on persuading him to accept her terraforming services in exchange for escape from her step-mother. All he thought he had was law and the dispensation of order. Aidoneus is used to being the rational one, the cold one. Serving as justiciar on an icy mining planet seems apropos for a man such as he. Turns out that wasn't the full truth for either of them. Together, they will discover that there can be joy to being bound, and that even the most logical of justiciars can fall to love. A re-telling of the myth of Hades and Persephone.

Corinth in Context
Author: Steve Friesen
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004190619
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
This volume is the product of an interdisciplinary conference held at the University of Texas at Austin. Specialists in the study of inscriptions, architecture, sculpture, coins, tombs, pottery, and texts collaborate to produce new portraits of religion and society in the ancient city of Corinth. The studies focus on groups like the early Roman colonists, the Augustales (priests of Augustus), or the Pauline house churches; on specific cults such as those of Asklepios, Demeter, or the Sacred Spring; on media (e.g., coins, or burial inscriptions); or on the monuments and populations of nearby Kenchreai or Isthmia. The result is a deeper understanding of the religious life of Corinth, contextualized within the socially stratified cultures of the Hellenistic and Roman periods.
