<p>After 60 years at Gethsemani Abbey, Br. Paul follows up his recent memoir, <em>In Praise of the Useless Life,</em> with a poetic collection that shows how to do just that ? by writing poetry.</p> <p><em>Amounting to Nothing</em> is both practical and metaphysical, a puzzling over the ultimate things of life, and a descending on the Benedictine ladder of humility to the earthly creatures surrounding a Kentucky monastery. This is less an exploration in self-knowledge than a forgetting of self in the wonders of everything. Quenon treads bare footed on the margins of mortality and immortality, with wit, thought, and hope.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Amounting to Nothing Poems【電子書籍】[ Br.

<p>Submission takes many forms in this collection of 69 short stories, from straining in bondage to taking a spanking, being put on display, and beyond. By turns bratty and worshipful, these submissives will go to great lengths to fulfill their naughtiest fantasies and are rewarded splendidly by their masters and mistresses. A student returns to show his former teacher who’s really in charge, a photo shoot becomes an opportunity for erotic games, and a man revels in his wife’s past as a former dominatrix. These brats, masochists, and hungry-for-sensation subs go above and beyond for the ones they adore, pushing themselves to new limits while their devious dominants put them through their paces. Edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, these short stories sizzle with the tension of erotic power play, commands followed, and service willingly performed.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 The Big Book of Submission 69 Kinky Tales【電子書籍】 2,136 円

<p>You lean, in a dazed way, upon the rail, turning on maudlin grins and waving your cap at no one in particular, until the crowd becomes a moving blur upon the dock-end. The liner's nose points down the river; gentle vibrations tell you she is under way; small craft dip flags and toot as they go by; the man-made mountain of Manhattan's office buildings drops astern; the statue of Liberty, the shores of Staten Island, the flat back of Sandy Hook run past as though wound on rollers; the pilot goes over the side with a bag of farewell letters; the white yacht which has followed down the bay blows a parting blast, dips her ensign, and swings in a wide circle toward New York; the pursuing tug comes up and puts a tardy passenger aboard. Then, suddenly, like a sleep-walking dragon that wakes up, the liner shakes herself; her propellers lash the sea to suds; a wedge-shaped wake spreads out behind her, and the voyage is on in earnest. Reno, Roosevelt, Trusts, Wall Street, High Buildings, High Tariff, High Cost of Living, Graft, Yellow Journals, Family Hotels, the Six Best Sellers, the Sixty Worst Writers, the Four Hundred, the Hundred Million, all the things which go to make home sweet, lie astern, enveloped in the haze at the horizon. You are on the sea at last!ーthe vast and tireless sea which has been the inspiration of painter, poet, and pirate; the cradle of Columbus, Nelson, Paul Jones, Dewey, Hobson, and Annette Kellerman! What is there like the sea? What is there like the free swing of a gallant ship breasting the Atlantic? Nothing! Let's sit down. No, I don't want to go and get my coat. I'm not so terribly cold yet, and my state-room smells of rubber and fresh paint. I like it better up here in the air, don't you? I'm very fond of the fresh air. I really adore it. No, it doesn't always give me a good colour. Not always. If I'm pale it is only because I sat up late last night at that farewell dinner. Perhaps I ate too much. Let's just stay here quietly in our deckchairs and watch the people. But, goodness! How they've changed! Where are all those pretty, fashionable women who were on deck before we sailed? Where, for instance, is the adorable blonde with the seal coat, orchids, low shoes, silk stockings, and cough? A certain cynical friend of mine would answer this inquiry by declaring that all the attractive women go ashore, having only come to see their homely relatives and friends depart. But I don't think so. I believe the pretty ones are here, though in seclusion or disguise.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Ship-Bored【電子書籍】[ Julian Leonard Street ] 640 円

<p>Secretos y tradiciones mapuches es un libro que surge de las conversaciones que Mayo Calvo sostuviera con Felipe Curinao y otros integrantes de la comunidad mapuche en Calafqu?n, novena regi?n. El objetivo principal era recoger las historias de los ancianos que los j?venes mapuches, por all? por los a?os sesenta, estaban dejando de escuchar. Los mayores tem?an que con los cambios que los nuevos tiempos estaban trayendo, los j?venes no recordaran los relatos que conforman esta cultura ancestral. Se trata de un registro riguroso, llevado a cabo con los m?todos de la ?poca, haciendo uso de una grabadora y una m?quina fotogr?fica. Este libro es un legado para la comunidad mapuche y para todos los interesados en su cultura. Hay relatos inolvidables por su tristeza y crueldad; otros que destacan por su profundidad; otros por su simpleza, por su car?cter m?s informativo. Hay de todo, como cuando nos sentamos a conversar durante largo rato. ≪El juego de la chueca≫, ≪El ?ltimo gran nguillat?n≫, ≪C?mo piensa un cacique≫, son solo algunos de los relatos que han estado presentes en la tradici?n oral y que ahora reeditamos para que permanezcan todav?a en nuestra memoria. Esta nueva edici?n incluye fotograf?as que la misma Mayo tomara durante sus estad?as en la comunidad ind?gena que la acogi? y le permiti? participar de su diario vivir, sus celebraciones y ritos. Se incluye tambi?n un glosario de voces araucanas y del castellano de uso en el lenguaje mapuche.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Secretos y tradiciones Mapuches【電子書籍】[ Mayo Calvo ] 2,025 円

<p>When nineteen-year-old Harriett Gold, from a prominent white family in Cornwall, Connecticut, announced in 1825 her intention to marry a Cherokee man, her shocked family initiated a spirited correspondence debating her decision to marry an Indian. Eventually, Gold's family members reconciled themselves to her wishes, and she married Elias Boudinot in 1826. After the marriage, she returned with Boudinot to the Cherokee Nation, where he went on to become a controversial political figure and editor of the first Native American newspaper.</p> <p>Providing rare firsthand documentation of race relations in the early nineteenth-century United States, this volume collects the Gold family correspondence during the engagement period as well as letters the young couple sent to the family describing their experiences in New Echota (capital of the Cherokee Nation) during the years prior to the Cherokee Removal. In an introduction providing historical and social contexts, Theresa Strouth Gaul offers a literary reading of the correspondence, highlighting the value of the epistolary form and the gender and racial dynamics of the exchange. As Gaul demonstrates, the correspondence provides a factual accompaniment to the many fictionalized accounts of contacts between Native Americans and Euroamericans and supports an increasing recognition that letters form an important category of literature.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 To Marry an Indian The Marriage of Harriett Gold and Elias Boudinot in Letters, 1823-1839【電子書籍】 3,405 円

<p>A trav?s de los tres relatos que componen "Las pantuflas de Stalin y otras historias", el autor nos permite leer una versi?n heterodoxa de ese monumental proceso hist?rico que es la revoluci?n sovi?tica. Dos grandes protagonistas (Lenin y Stalin) son retratados por dos actores secundarios. La veterana bolchevique Margarita Vas?lievna Fof?nova (una sobreviviente) cuenta en 1970 episodios desconocidos de la v?spera de la Revoluci?n rusa, cuando dio cobijo clandestino a Lenin en su departamento, en el texto "Lenin conspirando sin pera ni bigote". En "Formaci?n de un acad?mico", a trav?s de una novelesca biograf?a, Varas nos presenta a Jos? Griguli?vich, un heterodoxo intelectual militante que mediante un humor sagaz, punzante y medido, relata una serie de an?cdotas, chistes, rumores, par?bolas y sucesos de su experiencia como agitador, funcionario, agente secreto, diplom?tico, escritor y acad?mico, retratando desde diversas aristas el comunismo sovi?tico. Fue Griguli?vich quien relat? a Varas la "an?cdota" que da origen al cuento "Las pantuflas de Stalin", que inicia el volumen.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Las Pantuflas de Stalin y otras historias【電子書籍】[ Jos?

<p><strong>Challenging the triumphalist narrative of Enlightenment secularism.</strong></p> <p>According to most scholars, the Enlightenment was a rational awakening, a radical break from a past dominated by religion and superstition. But in <em>Let There Be Enlightenment</em>, Anton M. Matytsin, Dan Edelstein, and the contributors they have assembled deftly undermine this simplistic narrative. Emphasizing the ways in which religious beliefs and motivations shaped philosophical perspectives, essays in this book highlight figures and topics often overlooked in standard genealogies of the Enlightenment. The volume underscores the prominent role that religious discourses continued to play in major aspects of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century thought.</p> <p>The essays probe a wide range of subjects, from reformer Jan Amos Comenius’s quest for universal enlightenment to the changing meanings of the light metaphor, Quaker influences on Baruch Spinoza’s theology, and the unexpected persistence of Aristotle in the Enlightenment. Exploring the emergence of historical consciousness among Enlightenment thinkers while examining their repeated insistence on living in an enlightened age, the collection also investigates the origins and the long-term dynamics of the relationship between faith and reason.</p> <p>Providing an overview of the rich spectrum of eighteenth-century culture, the authors demonstrate that religion was central to Enlightenment thought. The term “enlightenment” itself had a deeply religious connotation. Rather than revisiting the celebrated breaks between the eighteenth century and the period that preceded it, <em>Let There Be Enlightenment</em> reveals the unacknowledged continuities that connect the Enlightenment to its various antecedents.</p> <p>Contributors: Philippe Buc, William J. Bulman, Jeffrey D. Burson, Charly Coleman, Dan Edelstein, Matthew T. Gaetano, Howard Hotson, Anton M. Matytsin, Darrin M.

<p>La vida humana es una historia de amor y de pasiones inconclusas, donde situaciones inveros?miles terminan siendo irremediablemente ciertas.<br /> El pasado de nuestros ancestros nos pertenece. De ese crisol venimos. Y por supuesto, lo que ellos vivieron y c?mo lo afrontaron para brindarnos la oportunidad de nacer, nunca aparecer? en los libros de Historia.<br /> V?ctor Labrador, un timonel extraviado que detr?s de un sue?o atraviesa el mundo intentando demostrar lo indemostrable, vive sus pasiones inconclusas al ritmo huracanado de los acontecimientos hist?ricos recientes.<br /> <em>A la hora del chocolate con pandebono</em> que se public? hace algunos meses en esta misma editorial y que tuvo excelente acogida, es parte de esta saga.<br /> La saga es circular (termina donde empieza), y su columna vertebral deja esbozadas las historias que vendr?n despu?s.<br /> El narrador -que explora un estilo hipn?tico y estimula la imaginaci?n del lector para que cada uno lea un libro distinto- saca a flote lo mejor y lo peor de cada personaje de manera imparcial, sin justificarlo ni comprometerse con ?l. Y "con un humor fino e irreverente nos transporta a la cruda realidad que hemos vivido los pueblos latinoamericanos desde nuestra "emancipaci?n". Una saga "para que los lectores maduros recuerden, los j?venes aprendan, y ambos reflexionen". Y si "alguien dijo que el humor es cosa seria", esta saga "demuestra plenamente la exactitud de esa afirmaci?n".<br /> (Apartes de la opini?n de Enrique Hern?ndez, lector de <em>A la hora del chocolate con pandebono</em> )<br /> Es una obra de colores fuertes, climas ardientes y datos precisos, donde cada cap?tulo -como recurso psicol?gico especular- empieza con la frase final del que le precede. La agilidad de la narraci?n se interrumpe con frases contundentes que resumen lo anterior, permitiendo que el lector descanse y reflexione sobre lo le?do.<br /> El libro que ofrecemos hoy, <em>El timonel extraviado</em>, es la primera parte de esta saga que el autor empez? a bordar en su infancia.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 El timonel extraviado【電子書籍】[ Abelardo Ferroi ] 790 円
