![]() By the time touring troupe Cheek by Jowl bring their new version of John Ford's 'Tis Pity She's a Whore to the UK – it is currently darkening summery Sydney – the theatrical murder rate in London will have notched up still further. In recent years, the National Theatre has hosted two more Middletons ( The Revenger's Tragedy and Women Beware Women), then, last summer, Thomas Heywood's A Woman Killed with Kindness, which despite its domestic setting became, in Katie Mitchell's fiercely precise production, every bit as intense. ![]() The Changeling opens in late January, to be followed a month later by John Webster's brilliant – and brilliantly chilling – The Duchess of Malfi, which opens just up the road at the Old Vic. And it seems we can't get enough of them. "Murder, I see, is followed by more sins."Īlthough it is four centuries since revenge tragedies like this first appeared on stage, they have lost little of their charge. ![]() "Vengeance begins," the woman mutters, ominously, later on. ![]()

But in 1619, Saint Francis de Sales recognized the universal call to holiness and in his book he shares how to get there.

Introduction to the Devout Life is far more than just an introduction. In many ways, Saint Francis de Sales was a spiritual director for me at a time when I thought spiritual direction was a thing of history long past that no one did anymore. Many years later, we still send each other messages on his feast day. During my college years, I read it over and over again with my household sisters, and we strived to live his wisdom. Saint Francis and his guidance became a guide for me in my initial days of navigating the Faith. With the word "introduction" in the title, I figured it must be meant for me. ![]() I found it on my brother’s book shelf when I was looking for something to read and hungering to grow in my faith. Saint Francis de Sales' book The Introduction to the Devout Life made its way into my life early in my walk with the Lord. ![]() ![]() Yet dirt itself is the literal base of rural culture. ![]() Nor the love of cleanliness is natural to man, but only the capacity ofĭiscussions of dirt, following the insights of Anthropologist Mary Douglas, position it as a relative value, a conceptual moving target.

Sinek calls this leadership process the “Golden Circle”: It starts with a vision (the “Why”), then moves to implementation (the “How”), and then conquers the product or service (the “What”). The actions they take and what they make is secondary to achieving their mission. He realized that inspirational leaders identify a purpose and follow it. He wondered why some leaders and companies succeeded and others do not. Dead-ended, Sinek thought about what made him happy.

Regarding the state, Lenin discusses Marx and Engels and agrees with their conclusions that there is a caste-system in the governments of the earth. The core argument of the pamphlet is that Marx was basically correct about his ideas surrounding, you guessed it, the state of government and the need for revolution. The central philosophy of Leninism, the theories outlined in The State and Revolution by Lenin himself, is actually a borrowed one. ![]() Written by people who wish to remain anonymous We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own.
