Minunea de Craciun a lui Jonathan Toomey - Susan Wojciechowski, P.J. Lynch (9786068544991)



Jonathan Toomey este cel mai bun cioplitor in lemn din vale. Dar este intotdeauna posac si morocanos. Zambeste rareori si nu rade niciodata. Nimeni nu stie ca o batista de dantela, o paturica alba de copil si o schita in carbune a unei femei care tine in brate un prunc nou-nascut zac parasite intr-un sertar pe care Jonathan Toomey nu-l mai deschide deloc. Dar intr-o zi de inceput de iarna, vaduva McDowell impreuna cu baietelul ei, Thomas, ii bat la usa cu o rugaminte pe care numai el le-o poate indeplini.
 
Dupa o buna bucata de vreme, Thomas isi drese glasul si sopti:
- Domnule Toomey, va rog, pot sa va intreb ceva?
Cioplitorul in lemn il privi pe Thomas pe sub sprancene, ridica din umeri si mormai. Thomas se gandi ca asta trebuie sa insemne "da" si continua:
- Asta, la care ciopliti acum, e oaia mea?
Cioplitorul in lemn incuviinta din cap mormaind din nou. Dupa inca o bucata buna de vreme, Thomas sopti:
- Domnule Toomey, iertati-ma, dar nu ciopliti bine oaia mea.
Tacanitul andrelelor vaduvei McDowell inceta. Dalta lui Jonathan Toomey se opri din cioplit. Dar Thomas continua sa vorbeasca:
- E o oaie foarte frumoasa, dragalasa si creata, dar pe oaia mea se vedea ca-i fericita.
- Mofturi, i-o-ntoarse domnul Toomey. Oaia-i oaie. Oile n-au cum sa arate fericite.
- Ba ale mele asa aratau, il contrazise Thomas. Stiau ca sunt cu pruncul Iisus si asta le facea fericite.

My Lai : Vietnam, 1968, and the Descent into Darkness (9780190056704)

On the early morning of March 16, 1968, American soldiers from three platoons of Charlie Company (1st Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment, 11th Brigade, 23rd Infantry Division), entered a group of hamlets located in the Son Tinh district of South Vietnam, located near the Demilitarized Zone and known as "Pinkville" because of the high level of Vietcong infiltration. The soldiers, many still teenagers who had been in the country for three months, were on a "search and destroy" mission. The Tet Offensive had occurred only weeks earlier and in the same area and had made them jittery; so had mounting losses from booby traps and a seemingly invisible enemy. Three hours after the GIs entered the hamlets, more than five hundred unarmed villagers lay dead, killed in cold blood. The atrocity took its name from one of the hamlets, known by the Americans as My Lai 4. Military authorities attempted to suppress the news of My Lai, until some who had been there, in particular a h...

The Origins of Beowulf : and the Pre-Viking Kingdom of East Anglia (0859914720)

Where did Beowulf, unique and thrilling example of an Old English epic poem come from? In whose hall did the poem's maker first tell the tale? The poem exists now in just one manuscript, but careful study of the literary and historical associations reveals striking details which lead Dr Newton to claim, as he pieces together the various clues, a specific origin for the poem. Dr Newton suggests that references in Beowulf to the heroes whose names are listed in Anglo-Saxon royal genealogies indicate that such Northern dynastic concerns are most likely to have been fostered in the kingdom of East Anglia. He supports his thesis with evidence drawn from East Anglianarchaeology, hagiography and folklore. His argument, detailed and passionate, offers the exciting possibility that he has discovered the lost origins of the poem in the pre-Viking kingdom of 8th-century East Anglia. SAMNEWTON was awarded his Ph.D. for work on Beowulf. Product details ...
