Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 42nd Edition By Publisher. 469 pages.** 230 Grams; (by HOMER author of he Odyssey) The Iliad is Homer's other great epic, and it's very different from The Odyssey. ** The Iliad is an ancient Greek epic poem attributed to Homer, set during the Trojan War. It focuses not on the whole war, but on a short, intense period near its end, exploring themes of honor, rage, mortality, fate, and the cost of war. ** The poem centers on Achilles, the greatest Greek warrior, whose anger (menis) drives the plot. After a dispute with Agamemnon, Achilles withdraws from battle, leading to devastating consequences for the Greeks. When his close companion Patroclus is killed by Hector, Achilles returns to battle, kills Hector, and ultimately confronts the human cost of his rage. ** Plot: ? Quarrel between Achilles and Agamemnon Achilles refuses to fight after Agamemnon dishonors him. The Greeks suffer without Achilles Hector leads the Trojans to major victories. Patroclus's death Wearing Achilles's armor, Patroclus is slain by Hector. Achilles's return Consumed by grief and fury, Achilles kills Hector. Priam's plea King Priam bravely visits Achilles to beg for Hector's body. Achilles, moved by shared grief, returns it-one of the poem's most powerful moments. ** Major Themes: Rage and honor Achilles's anger shapes the entire narrative. Mortality vs. glory Heroes seek eternal fame knowing life is short. War's brutality The Iliad is unflinching about violence and loss. Fate and the gods Divine intervention constantly alters human plans.** Minor Creasing to covers; indents to front cover; Size: 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. cover shows a detail from 'Jove Stiking the Greeks with lightning' by Giovanni Demin, in the Palazzo Papafava, Padua.

Paperback. Condition: New. Family law is a site of social conflict and the erasure of non-traditional families. This book explores how conservative religious and progressive queer groups can cooperatively work together to expand family law's recognition beyond the traditional state-sponsored family. Various religious groups have shown an interest in promoting alternative family structures. For example, certain Muslim and Mormon communities have advocated for polygamy, thereby aligning with queer groups' interest in overcoming the engrafting of monogamy into state law. Advocacy by North American religious conservatives for reforms in favor of non-conjugal families and against same-sex marriage overlaps with certain queer efforts to legitimize friendships and non-traditional families more generally.This book explores these potential areas of queer and religious political cooperation-including limitations and principled reservations to such cooperation. It then looks at additional future arenas of queer and religious political cooperation going beyond family law. …

Rilegato. Condition: new. A cura di Bimbi A. e Natali A.Firenze, 2015; ril., pp. 72, ill. col., cm 22x24.(Le Colonne. 1). Pubblicato in occasione della mostra allestita nel Municipio di Pontassieve (Firenze) dal 16 maggio all'11 luglio 2015, il volume riproduce una trentina di dipinti di Piero Vignozzi accompagnati da una lunga intervista all'artista realizzata da Giovanni Pallanti e integrata da immagini d'epoca. "La poetica di Vignozzi", scrive Antonio Natali, "è rimasta stabile pur nel mutare della sua stessa lingua. Le sue diafane epifanie - ora d'erbe e foglie, ora di muri sbreccati, ora d'angoli di orti - sono tuttora sottese da impianti grafici di così lenticolare e perspicuo disegno da rasentare il virtuosismo".
