Book Description
Esme, a twenty-year-old Fairy, encounters a wounded man in the forest during one of her flying escapades and decides to help him escape from the Jaguars, a dangerous sect of mages. She thinks she will never see him again, except she does... on the first day of the new academic year at the Institute of Magic she attends. It turns out he is the new professor her father has hired to search for a magical artifact that grants wishes. The heads of the Institute are her father and grandmother. But she has only known them for a year, and not just them, but the entire Ethereal Realm, a magical world that exists above the reality we know. What are the chances that the stranger is the first link to her mother's disappearance? After all, she has been missing for two months, and the magical artifact the stranger was looking for in the forest was discovered by mages around the same time. But is he revealing the whole truth? And why will not Esme's grandmother - the Evelyn Avram - help her at all? Finding the answers to these questions and setting out with her best friend Alanna to find her mother is only the beginning of Esme's new life, from which she can never return.

Book Description
The Song of Songs, traditionally attributed to Solomon, is a collection of lyrics that celebrate in earthly terms the love of a bridegroom and a bride. Throughout the course of early Christian history, the Song of Songs was widely read as an allegory of the love of Christ both for the church and for its individual members. In reading the Song this way, Christians were following in the steps of Jewish exegetes who saw the Song as celebrating the love of God for Israel. In The Song of Songs, the inaugural volume of The Church's Bible, Richard A. Norris Jr. uses commentaries and sermons from the church's first millennium to illustrate the original Christian understanding of Solomon's beautiful poem. In recent times, the Song of Songs has been more a focus of literary than of religious interest, but Norris's work shows that for early Christians, this text was counted, with the Psalms and the Gospels, among those Scriptures that touched most deeply on the believer's relation to God. All in all, Norris's Song of Songs is a masterful work that aptly acquaints contemporary readers with the church's traditional way of discerning in this text a guide to the character of Christian belief and life. This volume -- and the entire Church's Bible series -- will be welcomed by preachers, teachers, students, and general readers alike.

Book Description
What does it mean for poetry and music to turn to each other, in the shadow of the Holocaust, as a means of aesthetic self-reflection? How can their mutual mirroring, of such paramount importance to German Romanticism, be reconfigured to retain its validity after the Second World War? These are the core questions of Axel Englund's book, which is the first to address the topic of Paul Celan and music. Celan, a Jewish Holocaust survivor who has long been recognized as one of the most important poets of the German language, persistently evoked music and song in his oeuvre, from the juvenilia to the posthumous collections. Conversely, few post-war writers have inspired as large a body of contemporary music, including works by Harrison Birtwistle, György Kurtág, Wolfgang Rihm, Peter Ruzicka and many others. Through rich close readings of poems and musical compositions, Englund's book engages the artistic media in a critical dialogue about the conditions of their existence. In so doing, it reveals their intersection as a site of profound conflict, where the very possibility of musical and poetic meaning is at stake, and confrontations of aesthetic transcendentality and historical remembrance are played out in the wake of twentieth-century trauma.
