The Perfect Wagnerite: A Commentary on the Niblung''s Ring (originally published London, 1898) is a philosophical commentary on Richard Wagner''s Der Ring des Nibelungen, by the Irish writer George Bernard Shaw. Shaw offered it to those enthusiastic admirers of Wagner who "were unable to follow his ideas, and do not in the least understand the dilemma of Wotan. Shaw interprets the Ring in Marxian terms as an allegory of the collapse of capitalism from its internal contradictions. Musicologically, his interpretation is noteworthy for its perception of the change in aesthetic direction beginning with the final scene of Siegfried, in which he claimed that the cycle turns from Musikdrama back towards opera.
George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was an Irish playwright, critic, polemicist and political activist. Born in Dublin, he moved to London when he turned twenty. Having rejected formal schooling, he educated himself by independent study in the reading room of the British Museum; he also began his career there by writing novels for which he could not find a publisher. His first success was as a music and literary critic, but he was drawn to drama and authored more than sixty plays during his career. Typically his work is leavened by a delightful vein of comedy, but nearly all of it bears earnest messages. He remains the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize (1925) for his contribution to literature and an Oscar (1938) for Pygmalion.

Anna Katharine Green (1846-1935) was an American poet and novelist. She was one of the first writers of detective fiction in America and distinguished herself by writing well plotted, legally accurate stories (no doubt assisted by her lawyer father). Born in Brooklyn, New York, her early ambition was to write romantic verse, and she corresponded with Ralph Waldo Emerson. When her poetry failed to gain recognition, she produced her first and best known novel, The Leavenworth Case (1878). She became a bestselling author, eventually publishing about 40 books. She was in some ways a progressive woman for her time-succeeding in a genre dominated by male writers-but she did not approve of many of her feminist contemporaries, and she was opposed to women''s suffrage.
Margaret Sidney was the pseudonym of Harriett Mulford Stone (1844-1924). She was an American author, born in New Haven, Connecticut. In 1878, at the age of 34, she began sending short stories to Wide Awake, a children''s magazine in Boston. Two of her stories, Polly Pepper''s Chicken Pie and Phronsie Pepper''s New Shoes, proved to be very popular with readers. The success of Harriett''s short stories prompted her to write the nowfamous Five Little Peppers series. This series was first published in 1881, the year that Stone married Daniel Lothrop. Daniel had founded the D. Lothrop Company of Boston, who published Harriett''s books under her pseudonym, Margaret Sidney. Harriett eventually wrote over 30 books; in addition to the Five Little Peppers.

John Ruskin (1819-1900) was the leading English art critic of the Victorian era, as well as an art patron, draughtsman, watercolourist, philosopher, prominent social thinker and philanthropist. He wrote on subjects as varied as geology, architecture, myth, ornithology, literature, education, botany and political economy. His writing styles and literary forms were equally varied. He wrote essays and treatises, poetry and lectures, travel guides and manuals, letters and even a fairy tale. He also made detailed sketches and paintings of rocks, plants, birds, landscapes, architectural structures and ornamentation. The elaborate style that characterised his earliest writing on art gave way in time to plainer language designed to communicate his ideas more effectively. In all of his writing, he emphasised the connections between nature, art and society.

¿Qué requiere Dios de nosotras? Es una pregunta con la que todas lidiamos, creyendo que hay algo que deberíamos hacer por Dios para ganar Su aprobación de una vez por todas. Lo único que Dios nos pide es nuestra fe."Y Abram creyó en el Señor, y Él se lo reconoció por justicia."¿¿Génesis¿ ¿15:6¿ ¿Dios siempre ha pedido solo nuestra fe. Les pidió a Adan y Eva que creyeran que Sus mandamientos eran buenos y dignos de seguir. Le pidió a Noé que confiara en Él y construyera un arca para salvar a su familia. Y le pidió a Abram que dejara su hogar y su familia y fuera a la tierra que Él le mostraría.Hoy, Dios nos pide que pongamos nuestra fe en la obra salvadora de Su Hijo, Jesucristo, para nuestra salvación y cada necesidad que tengamos. Nos pide que le confiemos nuestra eternidad y nuestra vida diaria. Cuando creemos que Jesús murió en la cruz para salvarnos del pecado y obedecemos Sus mandamientos, caminamos en fe. Dios no exige nuestra perfección; Él solamente desea que caminemos en fe con Él.Cuando renunciamos a entender lo que Él nos pide, podemos estudiar la vida del pueblo de Dios, y observar los ejemplos de su fe. Fe sobre la Perfección analiza la vida de fe de Abram (quien será llamado Abraham) y su hijo Isaac. Abraham e Isaac no fueron perfectos. Dios les hizo una gran promesa, pero ellos tuvieron muchos momentos en los que sus acciones no se alineaban con su fe. Dios presentó a Abraham como justificado ante Él, mucho antes de que requiriera de él algo que no fuera fe. Acompáñanos en nuestro estudio en línea de seis semanas o en nuestra aplicación Love God Greatly app ( en inglés). Allí encontrarás el contenido correspondiente de Fe sobre la Perfección en nuestros artículos complementarios de Lunes, Miércoles y Viernes, junto con nuestros devocionales diarios y además, una comunidad amorosa que te animará a estudiar la vida de Abraham e Isaac y lo que significa vivir una vida de fe.

Robert Louis Stevenson (born Robert Lewis Balfour Stevenson; 13 November 1850 - 3 December 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer, most noted for Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and A Child''s Garden of Verses. Born and educated in Edinburgh, Stevenson suffered from serious bronchial trouble for much of his life, but continued to write prolifically and travel widely in defiance of his poor health. As a young man, he mixed in London literary circles, receiving encouragement from Andrew Lang, Edmund Gosse, Leslie Stephen and W. E. Henley, the last of whom may have provided the model for Long John Silver in Treasure Island.

Les monades de Leibniz ont fait du chemin depuis leur père. Par diverses voies indépendantes elles se glissent, à l''insu des savants eux-mêmes, dans le cœur de la science contemporaine. Il est remarquable que toutes les hypothèses secondaires impliquées dans cette grande hypothèse en ce qu''elle a d''essentiel, sinon de leibnizien, sont en train d''être établies scientifiquement. Elle implique, en effet, d''abord la réduction à une seule de ces deux entités, la matière et l''esprit, confondues dans la seconde, et en même temps la multiplication prodigieuse des agents tout spirituels du monde.

Sir Hugh Seymour Walpole, CBE (13 March 1884 - 1 June 1941) was an English novelist. He was the son of an Anglican clergyman, intended for a career in the church but drawn instead to writing. Among those who encouraged him were the authors Henry James and Arnold Bennett. His skill at scene-setting and vivid plots, as well as his high profile as a lecturer, brought him a large readership in the United Kingdom and North America. He was a best-selling author in the 1920s and 1930s but has been largely neglected since his death. After his first novel, The Wooden Horse, in 1909, Walpole wrote prolifically, producing at least one book every year. He was a spontaneous story-teller, writing quickly to get all his ideas on paper, seldom revising.
