Still, Loredana believed that Trenton, New Jersey, would be their forever home. So why was Loredana back in Bologna? Not Within the StarsIn a world where everyone was a survivor-some survived more. Silvia Marchese, daughter of a Rimini fishing family, forced to grow up before her time, found herself before the age of sixteen responsible for a house and her younger brother, after their parents and two older brothers died when their fishing boat was bombed-collateral damage of WWII. After the death of grandmother, Silvia finds herself ostracized by her remaining family, only able to count on only her brother Donni and their boarder, Gregorio, for companionship and friendship. Silvia marries Gregorio and they build a life in Rimini, Italy. Silvia appreciates the maturing influence the vivacious Mariangela, a young woman he met at a Rimini beach, exerts on Donni. Silvia is all too happy to witness her brother's marriage to Mariangela, happier still at the birth of their first child, Valentina. Yet tragedy is never far from Silvia's side, causing her to wonder if she might ever know true happiness. At least, until the track & field championships in Torino. Is Torino where Silvia finally finds lasting happiness? The Lovely Face of LightLose your heart-and find your soul-in Lebanon. Aisha, born a Shia Muslim in the Beqaa Valley of Lebanon, moved with her parents to the mountain town of Harissa as a teenager. There, she discovered the world was not just far bigger but far different than anything she'd imagined. Aisha finally found Allah but on a different path... a path that also led her to Marco. Marco Bracco, a native of the Puglia region of Italy, had come to Harissa on behalf of his Italian construction firm to manage a significant project for his company. Marco had expected to be in Lebanon for a year or so-and he hadn't expected to meet anyone like Aisha. And just as unexpectedly, Marco soon found himself wondering if Lebanon was meant to be his home. But how was Marco supposed to convince a Lebanese Shia Muslim father that a Roman Catholic man-an Italian foreigner, no less-was a worthy suitor for his daughter Aisha? Perhaps Basi could help.

In modern times, the phrase "till death do us part" transcends its religious origins and is now often included in wedding vows as a customary expression of commitment and endurance in marriages. Many couples, regardless of their religious beliefs or practices, choose to include this phrase in their wedding ceremonies as a symbol of their intent to maintain a lifelong commitment to one another. The inclusion of this phrase can also serve as a reminder of the seriousness, and depth, of the commitment being made; even when divorce is legally recognized as an option. It is also important to note that though the inclusion of the phrase "till death do us part" in wedding ceremonies does not necessarily reflect a strict adherence to the religious beliefs or doctrines associated with it, it does, however, represent a deeper commitment/dedication to the lifelong union between two individuals. The biblical principle of "until death do us part" emphasizes the solemnity and permanence of the marital bond. Couples may express their intention to remain faithful and committed to one another throughout their lives, regardless of the challenges and obstacles they may face. The phrase signifies a promise to uphold the marriage covenant until death separates them. It reflects the understanding that marriage is a sacred and enduring bond that requires love, sacrifice, and ongoing dedication. This book guides couples in their keeping of those sacred vows through enlightened direction stemming from years of marriage conferences - filled and led with God's wisdom. The reader will receive counsel in everything from recognizing who they are and what they will be bringing to the union; building a marriage after the ceremony; the significance of communication; and the sacrifices needed to be made in order to maintain and grow a healthy marital relationship.

Vilhelm Grønbech was a preeminent professor of the history of religion at the University of Copenhagen in the early twentieth century. His vast breadth of knowledge of world cultures and religions had profound effect on Danish academic thought, and in The Culture of the Teutons, Grønbech turns his keen analysis toward his own culture, that of Germanic Europe.Grønbech draws upon a rich panoply of sources in the Norse sagas, legal rulings, and historical figures both living and mythological to deliver for us a compelling thesis of the tribes that harried Rome, of the Viking Age, of pagan rituals and later widespread adoption of Christianity as much more than the sum of bloodthirsty plundering, as less charitable historians have condemned them. Instead, we delve into a culture alien to that of Tacitus or the Greeks, misunderstood for hundreds if not thousands of years. In seeming contradiction, the pagan worldview is foreign compared to our own today, or to the culturally imperialistic Romans who documented their "barbarian" foes, yet one cannot be truly estranged from his own ancestors. The genius of The Culture of the Teutons lies in Grønbech's ability to weave together what at first glance appear polar opposites, but in reality are inexorably linked.The various Germanic tribes of Europe, the Teutons, place unshakeable value on honor, family, and religion to create a society perplexingly carnal yet sophisticated, advanced yet close to nature. And nowhere is this clearer than in their settlement of inhospitable lands such as Iceland or the Faroe Islands, in which they brought order to a seemingly untamable environment. The impact of the peoples of Northern Europe on world history today is so vast no amount of spilled ink can pay it justice.Antelope Hill Publishing is proud to bring this expansive tome back into the limelight for a modern English-speaking audience, now complete with a substantial glossary, index, and hundreds of footnotes to confer important cultural context that would have been assumed common knowledge to its intended Danish audience. Volume II, published in 1912, hones in on the mystic aspects of paganism, the customs of gift giving, the buying and selling of land, and a deep exploration into the various Norse gods.
