cm. 17 x 24, xx-242 pp. Fondazione Carlo Marchi - Quaderni L?opera si propone di delineare l?immagine femminile tramandata dagli intellettuali vissuti alla corte di Costantinopoli tra la fine del secolo XI e il secolo XII, allorch? sotto l?impulso della dinastia comnena la societ? bizantina conobbe un accentuato processo di aristocratizzazione, i cui influssi si esercitarono anche su quelle consuete e diffuse rappresentazioni della donna che traevano tradizionalmente forza e legittimit? dal modello biblico e testamentario. How did aristocratic Byzantine women live? What were their feelings, desires and ambitions? This work aims to portray the picture of women created by Byzantine intellectuals who lived at the court of Constantinople from the end of the eleventh century through the twelfth century. Special attention has been given to famous and to less well-known women who have left their testimony both as public figures and in their private life. 568 gr. xx-242 p.

216 pages including bibliography. Moderate wear. Light soiling. Some yellowing to contents. Gives a first hand description of the Moonies Boonville indoctrination camp, which the aughor himself visited; and it tells Benji Miller's story of his own indoctrination - a powerful nightmarish account of a human mind taken apart then put back together at someone else's direction. It tells the thrilling, moving, sometimes funny story of a six week transcontinental odyssey to rescue a friend. Describes the deprogramming of Benji Miller; an eye-witness account of a virtual exorcism. Looks behind the mask of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon and his growing political and financial empire. Above all, offers a serious, penetrating look at cult 'brainwashing' techniques and their relationship to our society. The first book to look at what cults do to people... and how it can be undone. Book
