Somos muchas las personas que queremos pensar nuevas y diversas formas de estar en el mundo con otras, otros y otres desde el cuidado, el compromiso y la supervivencia compartida en un planeta cada vez mas herido. Queremos recoger la invitacion de Donna Haraway a crear relaciones de cuidado, interdependencia y responsabilidad compartida entre especies, generaciones, cuerpos y mundos. Porque somos seres interdependientes, porque los modelos de familias tradicionales no dan respuesta a nuestras formas de relacionarnos, y porque queremos reivindicar los vinculos y los afectos mas alla de la biologia y las instituciones.En este volumen hablan las madres, las hijas, las que tuvieron que abandonar su lugar de origen para seguir criando, las amigas, las vecinas En definitiva, las que llevan a cabo y acompañan en los cuidados, las comadres. Porque, como afirma Mar Gallego, autora del epilogo: El comadreo es un acompañamiento silencioso y en la sombra, y queremos visibilizarlo.Coordinado por Silvia Nanclares, con epilogo de Mar Gallego.

Somos muchas personas las que crecimos convencidas de que tendríamos que renunciar a construir una «familia propia» como peaje a pagar por decidir no cumplir con la norma en relación a nuestras orien

Desde el Neolitico, la autora examina mitos fundacionales, codigos, tradiciones, leyes, religiones y relatos que aun resuenan. Desde Lilith hasta la interpretacion cristiana, desde las leyes romanas hasta la educacion de nuestras abuelas o hijas, desde la tutela y las vestales hasta las noticias mas recientes que desvelan aun viejos patrones. Paginas que dan respuesta a por que persisten patrones que nacieron hace miles de años. La raiz del poder es tambien una respuesta frente a las tendencias parciales y reaccionarias que usan el pasado clasico para justificar el sexismo o el racismo. Un libro para quienes buscan respuestas, pero tambien para quienes desean ser parte del cambio.

Originally published by The Kerryman in 1947, this is one of the four titles in the Fighting Stories Series. It records the events of the War of Independence in the words of the people who fought it and those who wrote about it at the time. The book features reports on the Cork City Volunteers, the ambushes at Tureengarriffe, Clonbanin, Rathcoole, Tureen and many others, the murder of Tomas MacCurtain, the disastrous battle of Clonmult and the campaigns of the flying columns around the county from Mitchelstown to Blarney.With a selection of original pictures from the conflict and reports from both Kilmichael and Crossbarry, Rebel Corks Fighting Story is a treasure trove of information and intriguing detail.

A ground-breaking new book that looks back on Irelands struggle for freedom with a refreshingly new perspective and attitude. This is a journey into a turbulent period in Irelands past and covers the exploits of charismatic guerrilla leader Sean Treacy, Tipperarys flying columns and the horrors of Croke Parks Bloody Sunday. Tipperarys role in the War of Independence has been greatly under-played and this book analyses the main events and personalities of the time.

Historian, Thomas Mahon, With the aid of a former FBI code breaker, Jim Gillogly, has spent the past few years breaking the IRAs secret communications code, used to pass messages back and forth between Ireland and America from the 1920s until th e1960s, the results are explosive.From discussions about mundane matters to considerations of deals with the USSR and China, the IRA letters delve into just about every matter concievable for a terrorist organisation.

In volume 1, Professor Verdon sought to identify what crippled social anthropologys original project, that of understanding sociocultural variability. He found its cause in a universal, Aristotelian cosmology that renders groups ontologically variable to their principles of social organization, by defining them in terms of behaviour regulation. In this second volume, he develops a cure to that cosmological malaise: to define groups outside all behaviour regulation, and to define a separate group for every type of activity (unifunctional groups). From these two new cosmological requirements he sets out to define all the main concepts of social anthropology in what he calls an operational language (defined with respect to anthropologys aims, not as entities with intrinsic anthropological attributes): groups, corporations, descent, territoriality, lineages, segmentation, sovereignty and so on.He then applies this language to translate classical ethnographies operationally. He first chose the most famous ethnographies of so-called segmentary lineage societies, the Nuer (Sudan), Tallensi (Ghana) and Tiv (Nigeria), and then added the Berbers from the Rif (Morocco), the Yao (Malawi) and Australian Aborigines. All those societies were described as having descent groups. Translated operationally, ONLY ONE of them retains descent groups (the Tallensi). This leads him radically to transform the ethnographic landscape of social anthropology. Where all ethnographers saw descent groups almost everywhere, he finds them to be rare occurrences, now replaced with clientelistic social formations.Overall, setting out to define a set of etic (objective) concepts, he discovers that this language actually yields much better emic approaches to social organization (an approach closer to the actors subjective experience).

Tadhg Barry was the last high-profile victim of the crown forces during the Irish War of Independence. A veteran republican, trade unionist, journalist, poet, GAA official and alderman on Cork Corporation, he was shot dead in Ballykinlar internment camp on 15 November 1921.Barrys tragic death was a huge, but subsequently largely forgotten, event in Ireland. Dublin came to a standstill as a quarter of a million people lined the streets and the IRA had its last full mobilisation before the Treaty split. The funeral in Cork echoed those of Barrys comrades, the martyred lord mayors Tomas MacCurtain and Terence MacSwiney.The Anglo-Irish Treaty was signed three weeks later, all internees were released and the movement that elevated him to hero/martyr status was ripped asunder in the ensuing civil war. The name of Tadhg Barry became lost in the smoke.This is the first biography of a fascinating activist described by his British enemies as an Utter disloyalist and by a comrade as a characteristic product of Rebel Cork courageous, kindly, generous to a fault, bold and daring, and independent in speech and action. It offers fascinating new perspectives on the dynamics of Irelands long revolution, including glimpses of the roads not taken.

Bridgerton is the runaway Netflix success that has captured the hearts and imaginations of its biggest ever global audience. Producers Chris Van Dusen and Shonda Rhimes have ripped up the Regency drama rulebook to create a series that speaks to a modern audience. Apart from the intense sexual chemistry, inspired casting and a lavish costume budget, what sets Bridgerton apart is the extensive use of location shooting. Step forward Bath: the Georgian architectural jewel gets to play many different parts of fashionable London. Bridgertons Bath takes you on a tour of all these locations from No.1 The Royal Crescent (the Featheringtons house on Grosvenor Square) to Abbey Green (Covent Garden) and the Abbey Deli (Modiste couturier) on Abbey Street. Bridgerton intersects with Jane Austens world at the Assembly Rooms where one of the early balls takes place, while the 18th-century Bath Guildhall also gets a place on the series dance card. A key character in the drama is Lady Danbury, played by Adjoa Andoh, and her grand mansion is Baths former Sydney Hotel, today the Holburne Museum. Gunters Tea Room was a celebrated London patisserie and in Bridgerton it can be found on Trim Street. Many Bath streets feature regularly, including Beauford Square, a place for regular carriage trips and the Royal Crescent, which in Series One, reverberated to the sound of galloping hooves as our heroine (or her stunt double) raced to stop a duel. The book includes a feature on how the series was filmed in the city, and includes a detailed map so you can follow your own Bridgerton Walking Tour of this beautiful city, which has more to offer besides.

What is postulated here is not the dogmatic laying down of a way of working. Rather the aim is to make evident one possible means of access to an experience of the colour world... and guide actual practice to Rudolf Steiners sketch motifs to their eminent educational power for we recognize in them a path that can become of great significance to the developing human soul. From the Introduction This unique workbook describes the early stages of a training for painters, teachers, as well as complete beginners. These stages are based on recommendations Rudolf Steiner gave for the further development of an art of painting suitable for our time. The authors sources are: Steiners indications for the teaching of painting in the first Waldorf School, his colour and art lectures, and the sketches he made for painters. Together they form a self-contained system of exercises for a new art that is spiritually alive.The path that Gerard and Elisabeth Wagner have set forth which leads to experience of the spiritual basis of artistic activity and strengthens the human beings creative potential can serve as the means for a renewal of the art of painting out of the eternal and inexhaustible sources of the spirit.

Designed for those interested in the lore and tradition of a language, spoken until comparatively recently across much of Scotland, this is a compendium of Gaelic sayings and usage. The book includes notes, historical and social, and comparisons with sayings in different languages. Alexander Nicolson, one of the best scholars of his day, has gathered together a wide-ranging collection covering such diverse topics as women and marriage, wise men and fools, friendship and courage, and poverty and wealth. The proverbs appear in Gaelic along with the English translation, carefully preserving the pith of the original. These sayings, which as Nicolson remarks in his Preface, come from thatched cottages and not baronial and academic halls, reflect keen intelligence and a distinct sense of humour. This is a comprehensive and important collection, with a foreword by Ian MacDonald of the Gaelic Books Council.

Are we destined to merge with the machines weve created? What if the Singularity the moment of merger already happened? How would we know?The King and the Swarm argues that we already have. We did so via an always-on and increasingly omnipresent mesh of digital sensing points that spans the world, and of which you almost certainly have one in your pocket. The global transformation this has wrought reaches far beyond economics, reshaping politics, culture, sex, family, and even consciousness itself.

Justice is Gods Righteousness in Action Reclaim what was always meant to be whole. Justice and righteousness are not opposing forces but inseparable pillars of Gods design. But often our minds divide them, even set them in opposition to one another.In What Hath Justice to Do with Righteousness?, Rev. Dr. Charlie E.

True justice cannot exist apart from righteousness, and righteousness is hollow without a commitment to justice. Gods justice restores and reconciles.

A quarter of a century in power has allowed Vladimir Putin to enrich himself. He has done this by plundering Russias resources, confiscated private businesses and persecuted those who stood against him including Boris Berezovsky, Vladimir Gusinsky, Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Bill Browder. Putin put their assets under the control of his friends and cronies, who creamed off billions from nominally-state owned corporations.In 2022 Fortune Magazine estimated Putins personal fortune at $200 billion. The revenues he stole allowed Putin to build up an unparalleled war chest and this he used to pay for the invasion of Ukraine.The people Putin robbed he tortured and murdered. Some tried to fight back. Of these original oligarchs only Roman Abramovich survives.This is the fascinating story of what has happened to the men that Putin dispossessed and where their money went. But revenge is best served with cool heads and sharp minds. A small team of legal experts has spent the last twenty years pursuing Putin in the courts of the world. These legal experts are based in London and they are set on reclaiming this enormous wealth.The effect on the War in Ukraine will be just one result of their determined efforts.

"Sittsers singular study demonstrates that contemporary Christians drink from a deep well of spiritual practices as they become part of the cloud of witnesses to the faith. . . . Sittser concludes each chapter with exercises designed to reflect on ways that certain spiritual practices can be incorporated into contemporary observance."Publishers Weekly Starred Review, 2007 Ancient Faith for Modern Souls In AD 165, two men named Carpus and Papylus stood before the proconsul of Pergamum, charged with the crime of being Christians. Not even torture could make them deny Christ, so they were burned alive.Is my faithfulness as strong?In the fifth century, Melania the Younger and her husband, Pinian, distributed their enormous wealth to the poor and intentionally practiced the discipline of renunciation.Could living more simply deepen my trust in God? In the seventeenth century, Philipp Jakob Speners love for the Word of God and his desire to help people apply the Bible to their daily life moved him to start "Colleges of Piety," or small groups.In what ways could commitment to community make me more like Christ? The history of Christianity has produced models of spiritual life, some very different from our own, that can enrich and enlarge our spiritual lives. These saints believed in the same God, followed the same Christ, read the same Bible, and walked in the same Spirit. And they lived wholeheartedly for God, like Perpetua, an early Christian martyr; Francis of Assisi, a medieval visionary; Philipp Jakob Spener, the founder of fifteenth-century small groups; and Dorothy Day, a servant of the poor.In Water from a Deep Well, Gerald Sittser opens to us the rich history of spirituality, helping us learn from the practices and stories of believers from the past who thirsted for God. These vibrant narratives reveal deep, powerful faith and demonstrate how old ways can bring new life to our spirituality today. These histories are deep waters from which we can drink to become faithful followers of Jesus, like those who came before us.In this revised edition, youll find history, insights, and practical exercises for incorporating spiritual practices into your life; a new chapter and updates throughout the book; and a new afterword from John Mark Comer. Discover the richness of ancient faith practices and renew your spiritual life with Water from a Deep Well. Whether youre discovering spiritual practices for the first time or seeking to deepen your journey with Christ, this book provides timeless guidance for spiritual growth, drawn from the wisdom of those who have walked the path before you.

Gods Providential Work in Creation Before Life Began God has been present and active in creation from the moment he created it ex nihilo. Few Christians would question this claim, but its implications for ongoing theology and science dialogues have not been fully explored.In this pathbreaking and field-advancing work, Ross Hastings brings his expertise in both scientific and theological disciplines to bear on the topic of divine providence in chemical evolution. Based on the latest research in the developing field of chemical evolution and the work of theological giants such as Karl Barth, Hastings shows how God may have been providentially and non-competitively at work in the process by which simple prebiotic molecules gave rise to the complex molecules in the first living organisms.In God and Molecules, Hastings provides cutting-edge theological engagement with the developing scientific field of chemical evolution, advances the discussion in theology and science with this new integrative work, and offers a holistic alternative for thinking about chemical evolution that overcomes the binary of theology versus science. God and Molecules pushes toward new frontiers in theology and science and casts a compelling, integrative, and ultimately healing vision for how God has been lovingly involved in the developmental process of the earliest life on earth.
