Tarith, a man who has always led a very responsible and orderly life, is attuned to the Terrakia, the living, mystical energy that flows in one degree or another through every being in the realm of Quinnterra. He has always looked for that special person who could take up the fight that is on the horizon. But first, he needs the Council's permission to take in an apprentice. If Tarith fails, he will be imprisoned in the Terrafreeze for the reckless use of resources. Tarith believes Zodiak is that right one for the job, but he's been wrong before. Zodiak has had a lot of experience as one of the galaxy's greatest heroes, but he's about to see he has no idea what being a true hero is all about. Zodiak has been asked to leave his current life behind and join a universal battle that will reach across space and time. He will have to learn how to adapt to his new home and the people who have been there far longer than him. After bringing Zodiak to Quinnterra, Tarith discovers Zodiak comes with some evil baggage--information that must be kept from reaching the Council. What's more, Zodiak faces a threat that has been right in front of him for a long time: love.

In 1524, Pope Clement VII gave two condemned criminals to his physician to test a promising new antidote. After each convict ate a marzipan cake poisoned with deadly aconite, one of them received the antidote, and lived—the other died in agony. In sixteenth-century Europe, this and more than a dozen other accounts of poison trials were committed to writing. Alisha Rankin tells their little-known story. At a time when poison was widely feared, the urgent need for effective cures provoked intense excitement about new drugs. As doctors created, performed, and evaluated poison trials, they devoted careful attention to method, wrote detailed experimental reports, and engaged with the problem of using human subjects for fatal tests. In reconstructing this history, Rankin reveals how the antidote trials generated extensive engagement with “experimental thinking” long before the great experimental boom of the seventeenth century and investigates how competition with lower-class healers spurred on this trend. The Poison Trials sheds welcome and timely light on the intertwined nature of medical innovations, professional rivalries, and political power.

This fast-moving and vividly illustrated narrative is set against the life of the Jesuit scientist and cosmologist, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, who inspired much of the New Age Movement in the 60s and 70s, and whose concepts drive many thinkers today. Sparked by favorable remarks made by Pope Benedict in 2009, Teilhard's ideas go viral. In a world beset by wars, economic crises, and hopelessness, Teilhard's vision sweeps the Christian world - Europe and the Americas. Recalling Teilhard's historical skirmishes with Rome, the Vatican panics, and the Roman Curia persuade a faltering Pope to authorize a modern heresy trial as the only way of stamping out the infection. The trial proceeds with flashbacks to Telhard's extraordinary life. We see his discovery of science and the mystical impact of years spent in the midst of the horrors of the First World War. Two lively Jesuits, one Mexican and one Irish, defend him with wit. The drama concludes with a twist that presages the election of Pope Francis and realizes a triumph denied to Telhard throughout his life.

Exterranean written by Phillip John Usher and has been published by Fordham Univ Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2019-03-05 with Literary Criticism categories.

Exterranean concerns the extraction of stuff from the Earth, a process in which matter goes from being sub- to exterranean. By opening up a rich archive of nonmodern texts and images from across Europe, this work offers a bracing riposte to several critical trends in ecological thought. By shifting emphasis from emission to extraction, Usher reorients our perspective away from Earthrise-like globes and shows what is gained by opening the planet to depths within. The book thus maps the material and immaterial connections between the Earth from which we extract, the human and nonhuman agents of extraction, and the extracted matter with which we live daily. Eschewing the self-congratulatory claims of posthumanism, Usher instead elaborates a productive tension between the materially-situated homo of nonmodern humanism and the abstract and aggregated anthropos of the Anthropocene. In dialogue with Michel Serres, Bruno Latour, and other interdisciplinary work in the environmental humanities, Usher shows what premodern material can offer to contemporary theory. Examining textual and visual culture alike, Usher explores works by Ronsard, Montaigne, and Rabelais, early scientific works by Paracelsus and others, as well as objects, engravings, buildings, and the Salt Mines of Wieliczka. Both historicist and speculative in approach, Exterranean lays the groundwork for a comparative ecocriticism that reaches across and untranslates theoretical affordances between periods and languages.
