This book covers about 5,000 years of Near and Middle-Eastern Archaeomusicology. Theprimary sources come from authentic autographic clay tablets mostly written at the time of theirinception, in the Sumerian, Akkadian and Hurrian languages, unlike Ancient Greek musicology,for instance, which only relies on much later copies and translations of elusive originals. It couldeven be said that these original texts offer more accurate details on the nature of musicology 4,000years ago than Western musicology can offer about music of the first centuries of the Common Era.There is evidence that the Gregorian modes came from Babylon 4,000 years ago. The corpus ofMesopotamian musicology includes the oldest ever written song about 3,400 years ago in modernNorthwest Syria and also gives the name of the scribe, the name of the god to whom the song wasdedicated, and most importantly the name of the composer.

REVISED EDITION AND REPUBLISHED ON THE FEAST OF SAINT PAUL, 2023!This method of prayer, namely "the practice of the presence of God" taken from Carmelite Brother Lawrence of the Resurrection, is not new. However, applying it to Mary is practically untrodden. A little over a year following my canonical novitiate, as a Discalced Carmelite nun, a priest from France came to preach our annual eight-day retreat; his chosen topic was Brother Lawrence of the Resurrection's maxims on the presence of God. Before he left, he gave each nun a single sheet of paper containing a list of ten ways to keep Our Lord present, using Brother Lawrence's technique outside of mental prayer, so that one may always remain in the spirit of prayer even in the most chaotic task of the day. I met an all-time low behind the enclosure of Carmel; the only One keeping me afloat was the Woman I had already become accustomed to loving even in the darkest of trials. "I have abandoned all particular forms of devotion, all prayer techniques. My only prayer practice is attention. I carry on a habitual, silent, and secret conversation with Mary that fills me with overwhelming joy."Let us be Saints and martyrs for the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Christ the King and Our Lady of Fatima, FOR THIS IS THE AGE OF MARY."She must increase; I must decrease!~Mary's Secretary~

The book of Judges makes no attempt to be cosmetic. It openly portrays wickedness among the people of God. Since there is essentially one church in all ages, Judges has big implications for us in the 21st century. The numerous offences confronted by the Judges in Israel are in our own family tree. Are we repeating them? With modern examples this book shows why denial is impossible.Although Judges is an old book, thirty centuries removed from us, it speaks powerfully to our generation. We are thrilled as it reveals the amazing grace of God. But that increases our obligation to heed its warnings. It is exactly the message needed by the modern church - compromised and worldly as it often is.Neglecting the lessons of Old Testament history ensures the same mistakes are repeated in our days. The most unpleasant truths are often those most needed. It is vital that we learn from the Judges.Readers will appreciate the writer's fresh and engaging style. With solid Protestant Reformed scholarship he clearly explains and applies the message of Judges. By using the New Testament's covenantal approach rather than a common moralistic grid, he shows how all the Judges provide glimpses of Christ. It is especially evident in relation to Samson.Discussion questions at the end of each chapter will assist Bible study groups to profit further.

Saint Savva the Sanctified was born in the fifth century at Cappadocia of pious Christian parents, John and Sophia, and his father was a military commander. Journeying to Alexandria on military matters, John and Sophia left their five-year-old son Savva in the care of an uncle. When the boy was eight years old, he entered the nearby Monastery of Saint Flavian. The gifted child quickly learned to read and became an expert on the Holy Scriptures. His parents urged Saint Savva to return to the world and enter into marriage, but all in vain.When he was seventeen years old he was tonsured as a monk, and attained such perfection in fasting and prayer that God found him worthy of the gift of working miracles. After spending ten years at the Monastery of Saint Flavian, he went to Jerusalem, and from there to the Monastery of Saint Euthymios the Great (January 20). Saint Euthymios, however, sent the young man to Abba Theoktistos, the head of a nearby monastery with a strict cenobitic Rule. Saint Savva lived in obedience at this monastery until the age of thirty.

Dante Alighieri, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci sono solo alcuni dei personaggi evocati dallo "scrittore straordinario" Preston Whisley, dotato del potere di generare un portale per connettere il mondo antico con quello moderno.Come giudicherebbero i personaggi del passato la società contemporanea se avessero l'occasione di visitarla? Emiliano Forino Procacci prova a rispondere a tale quesito con il suo romanzo ricco di informazioni storiche e di eventi realmente accaduti.Un libro coinvolgente che, così come ci ha abituato l'autore con le sue precedenti opere, vuole mandare un messaggio forte a chi vive nella società moderna, cercando al contempo di sollecitare una riflessione su temi attuali come quelli dell'inquinamento e dell'uso smodato di una tecnologia che lentamente sta allontanando l'essere umano dalla natura da cui egli stesso proviene.
