Book Description
Why did Albert Einstein famously say that Imagination is more important than knowledge? Because flashes of brilliance are possible when we guide our minds outside of their usual pathways, and imagination is our vehicle to get there. That is why Einstein also said, If you want your kids to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. Exploring the territory of imagination is a journey of excitement. And this applies to grown-ups as well at least to those who wish to live a juicy life until the end. GIRL CHOSEN is not your typical fairy tale. It does not whisk you to a land of princesses, dragons and enchanted palaces. And dont expect to find vampires or zombies there, either. Instead, get ready to go to a tropical beach, through the eyes of the relatable Sara James. Expect everything you would hope for, from a good trip to the beach sunlight, romance and the thrill of the ocean. GIRL CHOSEN promises action-packed entertainment and expansive story-telling, sure to awaken the imagination.

Chosen among Women
Author: Mary F. Thurlkill
Publisher: University of Notre Dame Pess
ISBN: 0268093822
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Chosen among Women: Mary and Fatima in Medieval Christianity and Shi`ite Islam combines historical analysis with the tools of gender studies and religious studies to compare the roles of the Virgin Mary in medieval Christianity with those of Fatima, daughter of the prophet Muhammad, in Shi`ite Islam. The book explores the proliferation of Marian imagery in Late Antiquity through the Church fathers and popular hagiography. It examines how Merovingian authors assimilated powerful queens and abbesses to a Marian prototype to articulate their political significance and, at the same time, censure holy women's public charisma. Mary Thurlkill focuses as well on the importance of Fatima in the evolution of Shi`ite identity throughout the Middle East. She examines how scholars such as Muhammad Baqir al-Majlisi advertised Fatima as a symbol of the Shi`ite holy family and its glorified status in paradise, while simultaneously binding her as a mother to the domestic sphere and patriarchal authority. This important comparative look at feminine ideals in both Shi`ite Islam and medieval Christianity is of relevance and value in the modern world, and it will be welcomed by scholars and students of Islam, comparative religion, medieval Christianity, and gender studies.

THE NEW ALEX VERUS NOVEL I don’t publicly advertise that I’m a mage, but I don’t exactly hide it either, and one of the odd things I’ve learnt over the years is just how much you can get away with if you’re blatant enough. Hide something behind smoke and mirrors and make people work to find it, and they’ll tear the place down looking for what’s there. Alex Verus is a diviner who can see probable futures—a talent that’s gotten him out of many a tough scrape. But this time, he may be in over his head. Alex was once apprenticed to a Dark mage, and in his service he did a lot of things he isn’t proud of. As rumors swirl that his old master is coming back, Alex comes face to face with his misdeeds in the form of a young adept whose only goal is to get revenge. Alex has changed his life for the better, but he’s afraid of what his friends—including his apprentice, Luna—will think of his past. But if they’re going to put themselves at risk, they need to know exactly what kind of man they’re fighting for…
