Death's Deceiver: The Life of Joseph P. Machebeuf

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bridgers, Lynn, PUBLISHER: University of New Mexico Press, Joseph Machebeuf has been overshadowed for more than a century by his friend and fellow priest, Jean Baptiste Lamy. In this biography Machebeuf comes into his own, emerging as a major figure in the spread of European Catholicism through the American West. Although not physically robust, Machebeuf's nickname "Trompe la Mort" ("Death's Deceiver") reflected his optimistic nature and indomitable will. During his lifetime spent in Ohio, Santa Fe, and Denver, Machebeuf survived typhoid, cholera, dysentery, and malaria. Immortalized as Father Vaillant in Willa Cather's "Death Comes for the Archbishop," Machebeuf reminds us of the frequently overlooked French influence in New Mexico culture. Initially hated because of conflicts with local priests, Machebeuf soon developed a broad understanding and love of Hispanic culture. In his role as pastor he faced many challenges that resonate today--the friction of diverse cultures, the secularization of society, and a spectacular growth in the population of the West.

Essential Cavafy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cavafy, C. P. / Cavafy / Keeley, Edmund, PUBLISHER: Ecco Press, Cavafy's mythical world presents us with an image of the good life--the life of exquisite sensuality, refined tastes, and mixed faiths--that more often than not carries within it the ripening prospect of its own death; yet in his work there appears to be no other life more worthy of celebration.... As ironist and realist, his vision is readily translatable into the language of contemporary experience; and the commitment to hedonism, to political skepticism, and to honest self-awareness... anticipates the prevailing aura of our times.
