Comrades and Christians by David I. Kertzer Pdf

This book examines the popular bases of Communist influence in Italy, focusing on the struggle between the Catholic Church and the Communist Party for the allegiance of the Italian people. The author details the ways in which the citizens resolve the central paradox of Italy, which lies in its beings the home both of the Vatican and of the largest Communist party of any non-Communist nation. He discusses the local structure of the Party, including its many allied organisations and the nature of participation in Party affairs, and stresses its role in local social life. In this study, Professor Kertzer draws upon the experiences and observations of a year spent in a working-class quarter of Bologna, the capital of Italian Communism. While the national Communist Party calls for conciliation with the Church, there is an ancient tradition of anti-clericalism in this area. Moreover, the official Church position excludes the possibility of people being both Catholic and Communist. The implications of this situation for local-level tactics of Church and Party, and how people divide their allegiances between the competing claims, form the primary theme of the book.

Comrades in Arms by Rob Fischer Pdf

As followers of Christ, God has ordained that we should each team up with other men around us. In warfare, the one who goes off by himself and leaves his unit is AWOL. He's a deserter. The victors team up together. They stand and fight together. They care for and support one another. This book is a practical book on how to do that in everyday life. Comrades in Arms challenges men to pursue Christ in the company of other men. We call this spiritual partnership. Spiritual partnership with other men who are following Christ is one of the most powerful, yet most neglected means for deepening our relationship with Christ and experiencing spiritual transformation. Over the past eleven years, God has leveraged my spiritual partnerships with men to move me closer to Jesus Christ and change my life profoundly. Today, I wouldn't be without a spiritual partner—a comrade in arms! – Rob Fischer

An Iron Wind by Peter Fritzsche Pdf

A vivid account of German-occupied Europe during World War II that reveals civilians' struggle to understand the terrifying chaos of war In An Iron Wind, prize-winning historian Peter Fritzsche draws diaries, letters, and other first-person accounts to show how civilians in occupied Europe tried to make sense of World War II. As the Third Reich targeted Europe's Jews for deportation and death, confusion and mistrust reigned. What were Hitler's aims? Did Germany's rapid early victories mark the start of an enduring new era? Was collaboration or resistance the wisest response to occupation? How far should solidarity and empathy extend? And where was God? People desperately tried to understand the horrors around them, but the stories they told themselves often justified a selfish indifference to their neighbors' fates. Piecing together the broken words of the war's witnesses and victims, Fritzsche offers a haunting picture of the most violent conflict in modern history.

The Island; Or, Christian and his Comrades by Lord George Gordon Byron Pdf

George Gordon Byron (aka Lord Byron), later Noel, 6th Baron Byron of Rochdale FRS was a British poet and a leading figure in Romanticism. He is regarded as one of the greatest British poets and remains widely read and influential, both in the English speaking world and beyond. Byron was profoundly impressed by Mariner's report of the scenery and folklore of the Friendly Islands, he was "never tired of talking of it to his friends," and, in order to turn this poetic material to account, finally bethought him that Bligh's Narrative of the mutiny of the Bounty would serve as a framework or structure "for an embroidery of rare device" - the figures and foliage of a tropical pattern. This early work by Lord Byron was originally published in 1823 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography.

Comrades in Arms by Tom Smith Pdf

Without question, the East German National People’s Army was a profoundly masculine institution that emphasized traditional ideals of stoicism, sacrifice, and physical courage. Nonetheless, as this innovative study demonstrates, depictions of the military in the film and literature of the GDR were far more nuanced and ambivalent. Departing from past studies that have found in such portrayals an unchanging, idealized masculinity, Comrades in Arms shows how cultural works both before and after reunification place violence, physical vulnerability, and military theatricality, as well as conscripts’ powerful emotions and desires, at the center of soldiers’ lives and the military institution itself.
