I love Bod and Silas so much for different reasons, of course.Īnd all the strange characters, ghosts, the friendship between Bod and Scarlett. I guess 2,000 years of history does help or so. How do the Brits have such a great literary history. If you don't want to read the whole book, this is a great way to read the story. I can go on and on, but I will leave it at this. This is Gaiman at this best in my opinion. Many people wouldn't have put that in the story, but it takes it to a whole new level and adds something special and magical. I think my favorite part of the whole thing was the Danse Macabrae. I can't wait to finish the story with Vol. I guess I have a bit darker streak than she does at times. We like many of the same stories and she was not a fan. It's funny, my mom read this after I told her how good it was and she did not like the story. He gets lessons and advice from dead people. He is a boy that lives among tombstones and ghosts and other things. Silas is his guardian and he is a Vampire. A few details had already begun to fade from my mind and now they are back.īod is an orphan taken in by residents of a graveyard. What I like about this, is I can read it in much shorter time and enjoy it. Now, it has been adapted into a graphic novel. The book by Neil Gaiman is one of my top 10 all time favorite books.

If you think a policy will cause inflation but not much growth, for instance, you’ll behave accordingly. Yet by raising a big question, and then more of them, he prompted others throughout the economics field to think in fresh ways. In a 1972 paper, he asked, in effect, whether a policy like expanding the money supply made sense if one doesn’t take into account the way people rationally adjust their expectations (and actions) as a result. Even the phrase he’s most associated with – “rational expectations” – wasn’t original to him. And by many accounts, his prescriptions were often wrong as well as right. This thought dates back at least to Socrates, and it’s been reflected in many a great teacher or thinker since.This week Robert Lucas, a University of Chicago economist who died Monday, is being remembered by his peers as perhaps the most important economist of his generation – one who in some ways reframed the entire field of “macro,” researching the economy as a whole. Yet this Nobel laureate is nowhere near as famous as, say, his Chicago colleague Milton Friedman. Sometimes asking questions is as important – maybe even more important – than finding answers.

La sfera di ciò che si denomina « sacrificio » viene pertanto a configurarsi in una luce tutta particolare, come quella che permetterebbe di attingere in maniera più diretta e immediata rispetto ad altri ambiti di espressione del « religioso » quanto di quest ultimo è peculiare e significativo. La stessa pregnanza linguistica del latino sacrificium, da cui le moderne lingue occidentali hanno mutuato il termine in questione, dà ragione in certa misura dell attenzione privilegiata riservata alle realtà religiose corrispondenti, che vengono a definirsi per tale via come un facere sacrum, un azione o un complesso di atti rituali posti in diretto rapporto con quel livello « altro » dall umano che è il « sacro ». Sebbene l uso di questo termine per definire una componente degli innumerevoli fatti riconoscibili all indagine storica come religiosi rivela immediatamente la sua non univocità, ricoprendo esso realtà assai varie, nei contenuti ideologici e nelle modalità rituali, la sua applicazione persiste tuttora nella ricerca storiografica che pure si interroga sulla sua validità e sui suoi significati. Homo Necans (2nd ed.) Interpretationen altgriechischer Opferriten und Mythen Walter Burkert, Click to preview Die Herausforderung religionsgeschichtlicher Forschung besteht darin, die Erschlieung von Quellen in ihren Kontexten und ihre theoriegeleitete Erklrung mit einer historisch-kritischen Reflexion der Wissensproduktion selbst zu verknpfen. Dal testo: Fra i temi di interesse storico-religioso pochi hanno suscitato un dibattito così ampio e interpretazioni tanto numerose e varie come quello del « sacrificio ». Leggermente macchiato, altrimenti buono e pulito.
