Au Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance, les philosophes vont mener trois combats : les théologiens médiévaux intègrent les valeurs chrétiennes à la philosophie antique ; les philosophes chrétiens et mystiques opposent à la toute-puissance théologique les bienfaits de la philosophie antique ; les humanistes de la Renaissance réenchantent le monde et inspirent le renouveau de la métaphysique. Cet ouvrage cherche à mieux comprendre les relations entre philosophie et christianisme et redécouvre le mystère des penseurs de la Renaissance.

The darkness within me grows stronger every day, threatening to consume the person I once was. I crave the company of Kicks and the others I love—and yet fear to let them close to the monster I am becoming. So when Death calls in her bargain and tells me to go to Scotland, I'm eager to end the debt I owe her. But her vengeance is sure to bring more pain and heartache. Instead of the healing I seek, I'll surely form more enemies and dole out more death. The end of this bargain might destroy any hope of a new beginning…

Wenn die Flammen eine schreckliche Wahrheit verbergen – der 16. Fall für Polizeichefin Kate Burkholder. Mitten in der Nacht wird Polizeichefin Kate Burkholder von einem Anruf geweckt: Bei einem Feuer in einem einsamen Waldstück ist ein amischer Mann umgekommen. Der Verstorbene wurde an einen Pfahl gefesselt und lebendig verbrannt. Kate weiß nur zu gut, dass die Amischen ihre Probleme lieber ohne Einmischung der Außenwelt lösen, doch nach und nach erfährt sie, dass der Tote vor Kurzem aus der Gemeinde ausgeschlossen wurde. Warum wurde er so bestraft?

Since most of the world died on Death Day, I've been on the move with my little brother, trying to find a safe haven. The constant fight for our survival is wearing me down to nothing, as my walls grow higher with each new betrayal. Most days, it takes everything I have to keep it together. So when I finally get to Kicks' pack in Arkansas, the place seems too good to be true. Kicks seems too good to be true. Just when I'm on the verge of accepting that I've found somewhere safe for us, I realize there's one last threat that can't be fixed: me.

I thought I was a fake, a spiritual guide doling out nothing more than a placebo effect to the pack. Turns out I'm more legitimate than anyone realizes—and more deadly. It doesn't matter whether I'm the real thing or not, whether the pack has accepted me or not, because Duncan's mate never will and she's in charge. As long as he still wants me in his bed, she'll want me in a grave.

No warning. No explanation. Few survivors. Now we're all trying to get by as society collapses around us. Survival is a battle and it's getting worse every day. Food is scarce and the shelves are all bare. Finding medication for my little brother is impossible, and my desperation is growing as my options narrow.

Saint Augustine of Hippo (354-430) is one of the titans of church history. Works such as his "Confessions" and "On the Trinity" have earned him a place as one of “the Doctors of the Church,” responsible for shaping and defending Christian doctrine throughout the centuries. Yet Augustine was also pastor. Week by week, year by year, he shepherded his flock by preaching to them the Good News. In this short collection, listeners will find seventeen Advent homilies in which Augustine expounded from his pulpit the wonders of Christ’s incarnation for the everyday Christians in his congregation.

Apportant des réponses aux questions sur la Révélation Divine posées par la philosophie des hommes, le Livre de la Sagesse, autrefois nommé Sagesse de Salomon, est issu de l'Ancien Testament.

In Fatherhood, celebrated historian Augustine Sedgewick explains how this style of parenting emerged in the first place, why it has changed over time, and whether it will endure as we know it, despite its extraordinary costs. Told through the lives of emblematic fathers like Aristotle, Saint Augustine, Henry VIII, Thomas Jefferson, Charles Darwin, and Sigmund Freud, this is an ambitious yet intimate look at how masculinity has evolved and how men have come to hold disproportionate power by expanding and reinforcing the power of fathers in times of crisis.

The Enchiridion is among the latest books of Augustin.

From the Bronze Age fathers whose only use to their families was the food they could hunt, and the moment Aristotle put pen to papyrus and laid the foundations of the patriarchy, to Charles Darwin’s theory of sexual selection and Bob Dylan’s poetic take down of ‘The Man’, Fatherhood is an ambitious exploration of sex, money, power and love, and the story of how men have become fathers and dads in their turn.

Adam Duval was struggling in a typical high school in an average midwestern town. It was not that he lacked intelligence or drive. His difficulty could be attributed to his curious mind and daring demeanor. His short height and proclivity for raising the wrong questions in class made him a pariah to girls seeking to fit the mold. Disciplined for his latest escapade outside the paradigm of accepted thought, he was confined to his bedroom. He sought solace by picking up a book by his favorite western author. Mysteriously, he soon found himself on a three-year journey.

Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth—extreme temperatures and weather patterns wreak havoc, pollutants sour soils and waterways, and fires and floods ravage land and communities. Climate change is just a symptom of a larger ecological crisis. If we want change, we must realize that the solutions to the problems we face cant come through the same systems that created those problems in the first place.

Of all the autobiographies ever written by mere mortals, Confessions by Saint Augustine of Hippo is the greatest. In this masterpiece, you will find a doctor of the church longing for the true doctor of the soul, Christ. Taking us from Augustine’s roots in Africa to his encounters with his spiritual father Saint Ambrose in Milan, from his battle against his concupiscence to his famed conversion, Confessions is itself a veritable pilgrimage to the threshold of the new Jerusalem.

I’m working as a tinker for my mysterious boss Kaden when my past drives a wedge between us, and I’m once again left with nothing. Things are already spiraling out of control when my darkest secret comes to light, and the people of Nowhere turn on me as well.

Confessions is the name of an autobiographical work, consisting of 13 books, by Saint Augustine of Hippo, written in Latin between 397 and 400 AD. The work outlines Saint Augustine's sinful youth and his conversion to Christianity. It is widely seen as the first Western autobiography ever written, and Professor Henry Chadwick wrote that Confessions will "always rank among the great masterpieces of western literature."
