Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) is widely known as the heroine of the Crimean War and the founder of the modern profession of nursing. She was also a scholar and political activist who wrote and worked assiduously on many reform causes for more than forty years. This series will confirm Nightingale as an important and significant nineteenth-century scholar and illustrate how she integrated her scholarship with political activism. Indispensable to scholars, and accessible and revealing to the general reader, it will show there is much more to know about Florence Nightingale

Les moines du Moyen Âge, ainsi que beaucoup de clercs, ont vécu dans l'angoisse de la faute, commise ou à commettre sous l'emprise des démons, qui risquerait de leur faire perdre le bénéfice de leur ascèse. Il leur arrive de livrer au lecteur, souvent par petites touches et parfois d'abondance, l'histoire de leur vigilance et des tentations subies - par où ils se rapprochent un peu, quoique pas totalement, des modernes autobiographies. Le présent recueil réunit onze essais, écrits par des historiens français, allemands et américains, encadrés par une introduction d'André Vauchez et une conclusion de Jean-Claude Schmitt. Chacun de ces essais concerne une oeuvre particulière, parfois très connue (Raoul Glaber, Guilbert de Nogent, Pierre Abélard, objets de lectures novatrices), parfois beaucoup moins (de Valère du Bierzo à Richalm de Schöntal, le lecteur fera des découvertes). Il n'y a pas autant de démons partout, ni de penchant autobiographique, mais cette variété même paraît suggestive. Une étude iconographique sur l'exorcisme, due à Florence Chave-Mahir, complète l'ensemble en présentant et commentant des images saisissantes.

Teaching Places is a tale about a woman's spiritual search, how that search calls her to the land and how the land teaches. The telling spirals, exploring loss of faith, loss of voice, and the finding of a different, broader faith and a deeper, stronger voice. Her journey takes her to many special wilderness areas across Alberta - from the edge of the Canadian Shield to mountains, prairies, boreal forest, and parkland. In the telling of her journey, she interweaves migration, evolution, family, landscape, noise, silence, and song. Remarkable for the breadth of its treatment
