The book of requiems
from the earliest ages to the present period
Few western musical repertories speak more to the imagination than the Requiem mass for the dead. Yet, surprisingly, despite the significance of Requiem settings for our musical culture, the literature concerning them is sparse. The Book of Requiems presents essays on the most important works in this tradition, from the origins of the genre up to the present day. Each chapter is devoted to a specific Requiem, and offers both historical information and a detailed work-discussion. Conceived as a multi-volume...

Epicureanism and scientific debates
antiquity and late reception
Epicureanism is not only a defence of pleasure: it is also a philosophy of science and knowledge. This edited collection explores new pathways for the study of Epicurean scientific thought, a hitherto still understudied domain, and engages systematically and critically with existing theories. It shows that the philosophy of Epicurus and his heirs, from antiquity to the classical age, founded a rigorous and coherent conception of knowledge. This first part of a two-volume set examines more specifically...

Fabio Bolzonar Catholicism and the welfare state in secular France
Even though the policy impact of Catholicism has increasingly been acknowledged, existing scholarship lacks a coherent view on its changing influence over time and in different political contexts. In this book, Fabio Bolzonar investigates the influence of Catholicism on developments in French social protection from World War II to the mid-2010s. He discusses the factors that have favoured or inhibited it and explores the hybridization between Catholic values and secular principles in the social engagement...

Jaap Jan Zeeberg Five journeys
through the Arctic and a new Russia in search of Willem Barents
This is a book about the amazing journey of people discovering the Arctic island of Novaya Zemlya, looking for traces of a small historical event against the backdrop of the ending of the Soviet Union.

Mohamad Mostafa Fakhri The Reign Of Solomon
The Second Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan in 1402 Anno Hegirae
The Jews believe that they will be spared suffering, pain and oppression because they have lived the norms and values through legislation that they have jointly drafted. Christians believe that they cannot be executed on Judgment Day because, on rather dubious reasoning, they crucified Jesus of Nazareth and made him pay the ultimate price, as it were, for the sins of subjects of Christian societies. The Muslims, with their different denominations, believe that salvation comes from the recognition...
