![]() Biblical Epics in Late Antiquity and Anglo-Saxon England: "Divina in Laude Voluntas" By Patrick McBrine 2017 | 398 Pages | ISBN: 0802098533 | PDF | 3 MB Biblical poetry, written between the fourth and eleventh centuries, is an eclectic body of literature that disseminated popular knowledge of the Bible across Europe. Composed mainly in Latin and subsequently in Old English, biblical versification has much to tell us about the interpretations, genre preferences, reading habits, and pedagogical aims of medieval Christian readers."Biblical Epics in Late Antiquity and Anglo-Saxon England" provides an accessible introduction to biblical epic poetry. Patrick McBrine's erudite analysis of the writings of Juvencus, Cyprianus, Arator, Bede, Alcuin, and more reveals the development of a hybridized genre of writing that informed and delighted its Christian audiences to such an extent it was copied and promoted for the better part of a millennium. The volume contains many first-time readings and discussions of poems and passages which have long lain dormant and offers new evidence for the reception of the Bible in late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. ![]() N/A, "Beyond Alice" English | ISBN: 1760879657 | 2021 | 328 pages | EPUB | 31 MB From the happiness and freedom of her bush childhood, Tanya Heaslip is sent to a boarding school sixteen hundred kilometres away from everything and everyone she loves.

In Battling Miss Bolsheviki Kirsten Marie Delegard argues that they were undercut during the 1920s by women conservatives who spent the first decade of female suffrage linking these reformers to radical revolutions that were raging in other parts of the world. In the decades leading up to the Nineteenth Amendment, women activists had enjoyed great success as reformers, creating a political subculture with settlement houses and women's clubs as its cornerstones. Female volunteers piloted welfare programs as philanthropic ventures and used their organizations to pressure state, local, and national governments to assume responsibility for these programs. ![]() Battle of the Atlantic: Gauntlet to Victory by Ted Barris English | September 20, 2022 | ISBN: 1443460796 | 457 pages | PDF (Converted) | 14 Mb The Battle of the Atlantic, Canada's longest continuous military engagement of the Second World War, lasted 2,074 days, claiming the lives of more than 4,000 men and women in the Royal Canadian Navy, the Royal Canadian Air Force and the Canadian merchant navy ![]() Basic Concepts of Intercultural Communication: Paradigms, Principles, and Practices By Milton J.
