HARDCOVER . (Orig. boards AS NEW). color photographs ; 15 x 15 cm De oorspronkelijk zes Werken van Barmhartigheid zijn een belangrijk thema in de Middeleeuwse schilderkunst. Het zijn de christelijke deugden, die eeuwenlang de grondslag zouden vormen van charitas en diaconaat. Ze zijn gebaseerd op Mattheus 25, 35-36. Ten gevolge van pest -epidemiën voegde in het jaar 1207 paus Innocentius III er een zevende aan toe: de doden begraven, dit naar Tobit 1, 17. In 2013 beriepen vissers van het Italiaanse eiland Lampedusa zich op hun christenplicht om drenkelingen te redden, ondanks een wettelijk verbod asielzoekers te helpen. Zij werden door paus Franciscus van harte gesteund.Kunstenaar Gerard Ursem (*1950), Arnhem heeft er voor gekozen het redden van drenkelingen als achtste werk toe te voegen met een verwijzing naar de Storm op het Meer, naar Mattheus 8,23., Eigen beheer, 2015, 5, London: John Murray, 2009.

[EAN: 9780719562563], Used, very good, [SC: 2.8], [PU: John Murray Press, United Kingdom], JULIET NICOLSON THE GREAT SILENCE 1918 1920 LIVING IN SHADOW OF WAR, Peace at last, after Lloyd George declared it had been 'the war to end all wars', would surely bring relief and a renewed sense of optimism? But this assumption turned out to be deeply misplaced as people began to realise that the men they loved were never coming home. The Great Silence is the story of the pause between 1918 and 1920. A two-minute silence to celebrate those who died was underpinned by a more enduring silence born out of national grief. Those who had danced through settled Edwardian times, now faced a changed world. Some struggled to come to terms with the last four years, while others were anxious to move towards a new future. Change came to women, who were given the vote only five years after Emily Davidson had thrown herself on the ground at Ascot race course, to the poor, determined to tolerate their condition no longer, and to those permanently scarred, mentally and physically, by the conflict. The British Monarchy feared for its survival as monarchies around Europe collapsed and Eric Horne, one time butler to the gentry, found himself working in a way he considered unseemly for a servant of his calibre. Whether it was embraced or rejected, change had arrived as the impact of a tragic war was gradually absorbed. With her trademark focus on daily life, Juliet Nicolson evokes what England was like during this fascinating hinge in history. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged., Books<
