5-0 out of 5 stars sensational
If you're seeking the definitive Marivaux in English, look no further. This rendition is smart, sexy, contemporary, yet utterly faithful to the spirit of 18th c Paris. Worth every cent.

5-0 out of 5 stars Genius!
Truly one of the great English-language translations of Marivaux. The play seems clear, fresh, dangerous, and hilarious -- perhaps for the first time in English. My only regret is that I didn't see Anne Bogart's production, which sounds extraordinary. More please!

4-0 out of 5 stars One of the more gems forgotten
Marivaux's comedy, The Dispute, is one of those wonderful classics which somehow got lost over time. It is as witty as any Oscar Wilde play and is fertile ground for duologues, perfect for scene auditions. Because of its relatively unknown status, The Dispute makes for a even better choice for a classical piece to present as it is a refreshing break away from overdone Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde plays. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Hymn of the Universe by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
This work describes the power and deep levels of an encounter
with God as told by de Chardin. The reality is that the divine
power of God has influence over the affairs of man.
Here is a popular quotation by de Chardin:
' Blessed be you, universal matter, immeasureable time,
boundless thee triple abyss of stars and atoms and generations; you who by overflow and dissolving our narrow standards or
measurement reveal to us the dimensions of God '

The power of Christ traverses the time line. In addition,
the perfection of the human spirit lies in our personality
not individuality. Love itself brings human beings to perfect
completion in the Divine Order.

5-0 out of 5 stars eternal song
A classic work of mysticism worth returning to time and time again. Explores the interconnectedness of the world in a vibrant, fresh style that proves eternal.

If only more Catholics could give up the dogma and go with the hymn...

5-0 out of 5 stars A More Advanced Read
I have read this book five or six times, and each time i read it, I discover something new that i never noticed before. It talks a lot about relationships between things that happen in the universe, and is a great book... One of the best i have ever read. Allthough, it is a bit more advanced. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars This book fills an important gap!
Thank-you Mr. Shapiro!

Not only for this book, but for your previous translations of LaFontaine, Baudelaire, and Verlaine.

This book makes available to english-bound readers representative poems of three major poets who are otherwise exceedingly scarce in english.

It is good to find a talented translator who is willing to venture a bit off the beaten path of "mainstream" Western Literature and restore to us some of its undeservedly neglected major authors.

If there is any french-english translator reading this: ever since Harold Bloom's "The Western Canon" was published a few years ago, I've been looking for a translation of Bossuet's "Funeral Orations," which Bloom includes in his list of Canonical Works. The genre itself--funeral orations--strikes me as very intriguing, and without any familiarity with Bossuet, I imagine pages and pages of rhetoric like Marc Antony's speech over the body of Julius Caesar in Shakespeare's play! I don't currently have access to a university library, so I cannot definitively say that Bossuet's work has never been translated before, but--with Cambridge's recent, new translation of his philosophical work--it seems that this piece of literature is long, long overdue for its piece of the sunlight.

P.S. Hopefully, despite the fact that this book is undoubtedly for "the happy few," and won't be on the bestseller list anytime soon--hopefully, Yale will publish this as a less expensive paperback! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Radically Changes Our Understanding
Tinker's work is quite effective in exposing the ego-driven selfishness involved in the missionary exploits of Christianity's "main heroic missionaries." The common understanding has been that "they meant well, but were a product of their time." Tinker's keen research into the primary texts of these very missionaries (using their own letters, journals, first hand accounts) exposes the truth: that these missionaries reaped personal gain from the policies of colonial genocide. There are those who would discount Tinker's words and research as hysteria, but in light of Tinkers voluminous citations in the Notes section, it is clear that Tinker has the truth on his side. Also, I appreciated his attention to the existence of "New Age" practices as a not-so-subtle form of neo-colonialism. Wonderful effective piece of research and recovery of the true history of missionary colonialism.

5-0 out of 5 stars The only one around!!
I used this book in my senior thesis paper on Plateau Indian Culture and Presbyterian Missions in the 1830-40's. It did not only help me with understanding impacts of missionary work, but was written in a way that opened my eyes to deep thoughts of humanity, religion, selfishness and ethnocentricity. It is an eye-opener and a gift to any scholar's mind!!! READ IT! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful
This is a lovely book giving us yet more details about the daily life of Therese and those with whom she lived. Her teaching of the novices is an inspiration to all of us, even though, obviously, their situation in life (nuns in 19th century France vs. lay folks in 21st century) is quite different from ours. I loved this little book.

4-0 out of 5 stars Transformative indeed!
I think that the non-religious who reads the things that Therese said and did with her sisters in community at the Lisieux Carmel may occasionally be intimidated. I know I am from time to time. Sometimes I am even confused, for there are some pieces of advice and counsel that would not do for a secular woman such as myself. But I thoroughly enjoyed this work, and the translation was superb. Through the compilation of the reminiscences, I was able to better see what it might have been like to follow Therese around, listen to her, go to her in tears, question my vocation. I am grateful for this glimpse and I believe I have a better understanding of the way Therese taught. Thanks for reading.

5-0 out of 5 stars Splendid study of Therese and her novice and disciple
The appearance of this book in English is a gift to all of Therese's English-speaking friends. Marie of the Trinity tells many stories about Therese not recorded elsewhere, and the study of her relationship with Therese is itself endlessly fascinating. Insights into daily life at Lisieux Carmel; interesting account of life at Carmel from 1897-1944. Read about the dream Therese had about 1896 which she confided to Marie of the Trinity; she dreamt of a celebration for her in a field, like a cemetery, yet festive, and told Marie that sooner or later they would find out what the dream meant. In March 1923, the solemn translation of Therese's relics from Lisieux cemetery to the Carmel took place, and Marie realized the dream had foreshadowed that event, in which 50,000 pilgrims followed the body of Sister Therese in its return to Carmel. It is easy to see why the testimony of Marie of the Trinity was important at the Process. Enjoy. ... Read more
