Описание: Twenty years after the Tangentopoli corruption scandal, the dissolution of the ruling Christian Democrat party, the emergence of a major new centre-right party and the introduction of a new electoral system, Italy continues to face many of the same social, economic and political problems as before. The dominant discourse has been of a Second Republic, emerging in the 1990s, which was to have delivered major constitutional reform and a more representative relationship between politicians and voters. Since this has not happened, Italy is now said to face transition to a Third Republic. Paul Furlong argues that in fact there has been no Second Republic, only a period of dissolution. He tracks the continuities with the First Republic as well as the major institutional changes in Italian politics, society and political economy since 1994, analysing how and why the Second Republic has gone missing and what can be done about it. He argues that a Republic founded on commitment to European integration needs to find a new way of dealing with Europe and that many of the positive values of the First Republic social equality, representative democracy, pluralist citizenship and regional diversity must be reclaimed for Italy to regain confidence on the European and world stage.
Authentic recipes with origins in the Neapolitan and Abruzzi regions of Italy found their way to southern New Jersey with Italian immigrants settling there around the turn of the twentieth century. The Rodios were among those who established farms, planted their roots in the Jersey soil, and nurtured their families in the New World.
This book is not only a legacy of hand-me-down recipes that were perfected over a century or more, but it is also a memoir about a lost era in Americana culinary history. It chronicles a time when food nourished the heart and soul, a time when love inspired family and friends to have impromptu gatherings, and a time when being with loved ones was as important as the food on the table.
Arranged by seasons and emphasizing the importance of using fresh produce, the pages unveil a cornucopia of Italian classics, as well as some innovative ideas that will whet the palate. Highlighted are seasonal themes where the readers find themselves embraced within the family circle as they eat and enjoy the Easter bread, fire up the summer grill, slaughter the pigs for the harvest festival, and soak the salt cod for the Christmas Eve Feast of the seven fishes.

Описание: In the Appalachian town of Bone Gap, Tennessee, backwoods justice is more than just blind. It's swift, silent, and shockingly personal. Especially for Irish Traveller turned deputy sheriff Brynn Callahan . . . "Hear No Evil." The first message is found in a playground. A few feet away, a pair of human ears hang from the monkey bars. Deputy sheriff Brynn Callahan isn't sure what to make of this grisly scene. Do the ears belong to a murder victim? And if so, where is the body? One thing Brynn is sure of: the earring on one of the earlobes belongs to a man she met at a party the previous night. . . "Speak No Evil." The second message is discovered next to a human tongue on a park pavilion. Once again, no body is found. Brynn can't help but wonder if the crimes are rooted in the town's long-simmering tensions between Bone Gap locals and the barely tolerated Travellers who've settled there. "See No Evil." For Brynn, the investigation hits too close to home--forcing her to confront the demons of her own past. But time is running out. Brynn has to track down the culprit before a third message is delivered--and a third victim is claimed. Rich, atmospheric, and brilliantly chilling, Shattered Justice is the third Bone Gap Travellers novel from the acclaimed author of Splintered Silence and Fractured Truth. "Brynn Callahan is the gutsy heroine of Susan Furlong's gritty series, a real find, if you ask me. The thickly forested setting is gorgeous, once you look past the armed militia encampments pitched in the woods. And the locals are just quirky enough to make you forget they can also be dangerous. But the sturdy wildflower in this treacherous terrain is Brynn, who lives with a dog named Wilco, 'once the best damn HRD (human remains detection) dog in the entire Middle Eastern conflict.' The question is, are these two veterans tough enough to survive on the home front?" --The New York Times Book Review "Furlong carefully interlaces the two story lines as they come together in an unexpected and nail-biting resolution...Readers will hope Brynn and Wilco will be back soon." --Publishers Weekly "A harrowing portrait of addiction, prejudice, and redemption neatly encapsulated in a guileful mystery." --Kirkus Reviews
Описание: This book examines how the identification of John the Evangelist with the Apostle John, the son of Zebedee, from around the third century, gave rise to various conflated narratives. Dean Furlong argues that this culminated in Eusebius`s synthesis of the traditions, which provided the template for the traditional Johannine narrative.

Описание: When the mutilated remains of a young woman are found in an Appalachian Mountain cave, newly sworn-in deputy sheriff Brynn Callahan is forced to track down a killer driven by twisted motives . . . Not long after donning the uniform of the McCreary County Sheriff's department in Bone Gap, Tennessee, ex-Marine Brynn Callahan faces her first official homicide. On a cold February morning, a lone cross-country skier stumbles across the mutilated body of a young woman. Sent to investigate, Brynn is shocked when she recognizes the victim as a fellow Traveller, Maura Keene. Maura held a solid standing both within the Travellers' insular community and among the settled townspeople-a fact that makes her murder all the more disturbing to Brynn, who also straddles the two worlds. After her trained K-9, Wilco, digs up human bones, and then a scrap of paper scrawled with arcane Latin phrases is uncovered, Brynn finds evidence leading her to question those closest to her-and closing the case becomes a deeply personal matter. While trying to suppress local superstitions and prejudices, Brynn discovers that Maura was keeping a dangerous secret. And as the bones Wilco found are analyzed by forensics, Brynn harbors the troubling suspicion that she knows who they belong to. Still struggling with PTSD, Brynn must put her career on the line and her life at risk to find justice for a woman not unlike herself-haunted by her past, and caught in a vicious cycle she may never escape . . .
Описание: This book interrogates the current reputation of Psychology, both as an industry and as part of the academy. It disputes Psychology`s claim to be a science, questions its claims to effectiveness and examines relationships with other disciplines and fields.
