Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. If you could talk to your younger self, what would you tell her? If you could equip her for the challenges she would face rocky, with the Church plagued by scandal and the culture on the verge of collapse, what would you say? In Letters to Myself from the End of the World, Emily Stimpson Chapman answers those questions, weaving Catholic theology, biblical wisdom, and her own life experience into forty-five "letters" to her twenty-five-year-old self. Both personal and practical, Chapman's letters reflect upon sin and grace, the Church's sacraments and saints, scandals and injustice, social media and prayer, suffering, adoption, motherhood, and much more. Letters to Myself from the End of the World is a faithful guide for pursuing holiness and spiritual maturity in a world broken by sin. It's also a testimony to the power of grace to heal our hearts, renew our minds, and transform our lives. Book jacket.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Around 1350 BC, the king of Babylon wrote to Pharaoh with a complaint: the gold you sent came up short when we melted it down. Also, my sister was married into your court years ago and no one has heard from her since. Send someone who can recognize her.In the 1880s, a woman digging for fertilizer in the ruins of an abandoned Egyptian city struck a cache of clay tablets covered in cuneiform. Dismissed as forgeries, sold in dealer lots, partly ground to powder in transit, the roughly 350 tablets that survived turned out to be something unrepeatable: the diplomatic inbox of the Egyptian court at the height of the Bronze Age - incoming mail from the kings of Babylon, Assyria, Mitanni, Hatti, and Cyprus, and from dozens of small rulers in Canaan begging for help that rarely came.These are not treaties. They are letters, and they read like it. Kings call each other 'brother' and quarrel like family - over underweight gold, late festival invitations, daughters sent as brides and never seen again. The king of Cyprus apologizes for a small copper shipment: plague has killed his coppersmiths. And on the empire's frontier, Rib-Hadda of Byblos writes more than sixty increasingly desperate letters - send fifty archers, send ten, send anyone - while his city is stripped away town by town.The reader knows what the writers do not: within a century and a half, nearly every kingdom in this correspondence will be gone. These letters are the last intact snapshot of the world before the Bronze Age collapse - the 'before' picture of the most famous ending in ancient history.What you'll learn: - How a real international system worked 3,300 years ago - protocol, gift exchange, dynastic marriage, extradition- Why every court wrote in Akkadian, a language none of them natively spoke- What the gold complaints reveal about Bronze Age finance and the price of respect- Why Egypt took foreign princesses but never sent one abroad - and the resentment it bred- Who the Apiru were, and the honest state of the argument connecting them to the Hebrews- How a minor vassal named Aziru played Egypt and the Hittites against each other - and won- What the letters could not see coming: the collapse that erased their worldThis book is for you if: - You want the Bronze Age with the voices intact - kings complaining, flattering, and lying, not just ruins and pottery- You've read about the Bronze Age collapse and want to see the system that fell while it still worked- You're drawn to diplomacy and statecraft - how strangers built trust across a thousand miles- You like history told through people: a wheedling king, a desperate governor, a queen asking her enemy for a husbandMeet the great kings of the Bronze Age - petty, funny, desperate, and completely alive - in the last letters before the world ended.…

Dust jacket is tidy with faded spine. "More than fifty years after the Second World War, the scars left by the atomic bombing of Hiroshima refuse to heal. This compelling account of one man's experience gives a human face to the events of August 6, 1945. For a week after the bombing, the author, who was an assistant professor at Hiroshima University, wandered the decimated streets of the city, searching for his wife and his youngest son. He finally located them, but his wife died just days later. Grief-stricken, the author wrote her a series of letters over the next year outlining the things he had seen and heard during her last days on earth. In 1948, the letters became the first eyewitness account of an atomic bombing ever published. This powerful record shows how one family's future was altered in an instant. Comprised of correspondence, diary entries and drawings, Letters from the End of the World presents the events surrounding the close of World War II in terms so personal they will not soon be forgotten.".…
