Into a Paris Quartier: Reine Margot's Chapel and Other

Into a Paris Quartier: Reine Margot's Chapel and Other

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Johnson, Diane, PUBLISHER: National Geographic Society, As a child, Diane Johnson was entranced by "The Three Musketeers, " dashing 17th-century residents of the famous romantic quartier called St.-Germain-des-Pres. Now, the paperback edition of her delightful book will take even more Americans to the richly historic part of the city that has always attracted us, from Ben Franklin in the 18th-century to raffish novelist Henry Miller in the 20th. Modern St.-Germain is lively and prosperous, and fifty years ago its heady mix of jazz and existentialism defined urbane cool, but Johnson takes a longer view. "Beside the shades of Jean-Paul Sartre and Edith Piaf," she writes, "there is another crowd of resident ghosts... misty figures in plumed hats whose fortunes and passions were enacted among these beautiful, imposing buildings." From her kitchen window, she looks out on a chapel begun by Reine Margot, wife of Henri IV; nearby streets are haunted by the shades of two sinister cardinals, Mazarin and Richelieu, as well as four famed queens and at least five kings. Delacroix, Corot, Ingres, David, and Manet all lived in St.-Germain; Oscar Wilde died there; and everybody who was anybody visited sooner or later. With her delicious imagination and wry, opinionated voice, Diane Johnson makes a companionable and fascinating guide to a classic neighborhood as cosmopolitan as it is quintessentially French.

Gospel Tracks Through Texas: The Mission of the Chapel Car

Gospel Tracks Through Texas: The Mission of the Chapel Car

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Taylor, Wilma Rugh, PUBLISHER: Texas A&M University Press, In a different kind of railroad car rolled into Texas, bringing the "good news" of the evangelical Gospel to transient railroad workers and far-flung communities alike. A ministry to railroad men and their families lay at the heart of chapel car work, which over a period of fifty years saw thirteen rail chapel cars minister to thousands of towns, mainly west of the Mississippi. Author Wilma Rugh Taylor's portrayal of this ministry for the one car, Good Will, which served Texas, provides a view of life in towns such as Denison, Texline, Marshall, San Antonio, Laredo, Abilene, and Dalhart. The railroads that carried the Texas chapel car included the Texas & Pacific; the Missouri, Kansas & Topeka; the Southern Pacific; the International & Great Northern; and the Mexican International. Taylor writes about the travels of Good Will with fondness and an eye for detail. She describes the car itself (its living area was just nine by eighteen feet with a decorative rococo stencil on the ceiling), the missionary couples who traveled in it, and the services they held. She considers the philanthropists who supported the mobile chapel and the guilt and other motives that moved them. She looks at the issues the chapel car faced as it rolled into town: temperance, turbulent religious rivalries, racism and immigration, the role of Masons and other lodges in rural society, and even the devastating Great Storm of in Galveston. A novel window into Texas and railroad history, this book tells a warmly human story set on a larger stage of charitable works, evangelical fervor, and social change.

The Impressionists: The Origins of Modern Painting

The Impressionists: The Origins of Modern Painting

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Salvi, Francesco / Salvi, Fransesco / Galante, L. R., PUBLISHER: Peter Bedrick Books, The art world of the nineteenth century Paris was thrown into turmoil when a group of young painters first exhibited their work.

This book presents their stories and the work that made them famous. It describes their personal life and their relationships with each other, and their difficulties with official institutions and the conservative art world of the time. It also analyses their techniques, materials and subjects which ushered in a whole new way of looking at the world. Featuring the life and work of Manet, Monet, Renoir, Degas, Cezanne, Pissaro, Sisley, Morisot, Cassatt, Guillaumin, and Caillebotte.

Bushido: The Soul of Japan

Bushido: The Soul of Japan

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Nitobe, Inazo, PUBLISHER: Kodansha USA, A century ago, when Japan was transforming itself from an isolated feudal society into a modern nation, a Japanese educator queried about the ethos of his people composed this seminal work, which with his numerous other writings in English made him the best, known Japanese writer in the West during his lifetime. He found in Bushido, the Way of the Warrior, the sources of the virtues most admired by his people: rectitude, courage, benevolence, politeness, sincerity, honor, loyalty and self-control. His approach to his task was eclectic and far-reaching. On the one hand, he delved into the indigenous traditions, into Buddhism, Shintoism, Confucianism and the moral guidelines handed down over hundreds of years by Japan's samurai and sages. On the other hand, he sought similarities and contrasts by citing not only Western philosophers and statesmen, but also the shapers of European and American thought and civilization going back to the Romans, the Greeks and Biblical times. This book is a classic to which generations of scholars and laymen alike have long referred for insights into the character of the Japanese people. And all of its many readers in the past have been amply rewarded, as will be all those who turn to its pages in the next and future decades.

A Furious Place

A Furious Place

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hardie, Kerry, PUBLISHER: Gallery Books, Kerry Hardie's first collection makes maps of places familiar to her. "These days I want to trace/ the shapes of every townland in this valley". Her maps are scrutinized and filled with characters -- a young woman considers her childless state, a farm girl remembers home, a husband reflects upon his wife facing an operation, a daughter-in-law regrets her jealousy. These, and other people, are recorded in their own landscapes which, in turn, permeate their lives and ease them. Other poems dwell on the hardships and lessons of a punishing illness -- her own. Hardie's defiant gestures offer insights into experience. Her insistent, necessary reports achieve "some other country. To be entered/ like sorrow, and passed through". Kerry Hardie was born in Singapore in and grew up in County Down, Ireland.
