Ermanna Montanari: a minute body that grows enormous on stage and a magnetic visage capable of expressing unlimited intensities; a voice that creates stage figures and becomes a musical instrument; an original language that encompasses every type of performance; microscopic precision and the magma of an infancy still vital in the language of dreams and the enigma of her native dialect. Laura Mariani, subtle analyst of theater and memory, portrays Ermanna in the weaving of art and life and in relation to Marco Martinelli, director and playwright and other pole in a complex alchemy. Mariani interrogates the figure of Ermanna through written and visual sources, unpublished notebooks and traces of the process of creation. A narrative journey—biography, portrait of the artist, chronicle of becoming—to examine in detail the raw material of an actress and of theater as it unfolds.

In this sexy installment of the Miles High Club series from bestselling author T L Swan, a billionaire playboy goes incognito on a backpacking trip in Europe. But how long can he hide from love? I'm wealthy, powerful, and able to get any woman I want. So why do I feel so empty inside? In search of a deeper me, I take a sabbatical from my privileged life. One year of backpacking around Europe: a new identity, no contacts, and no money. Not a bad plan, I think. Until I get there. A crowded hostel room, body odor, and beer bongs--there are no words for the fresh hell I've landed in. But amid the chaos, I meet my new roommate, Hayden Whitmore. She sleeps in the bed opposite me, and I openly admit to staring at her more than I sleep. Beautiful, innocent, and smart. Not my usual type but perhaps the perfect woman. There's just one small problem with the divine Miss Hayden. She's totally unaffected by my charm. Nothing is working, and now, I've been friend zoned. What? But the good thing about me is that I'm an incredible problem solver, and I've come up with a diabolical plan. I'm going to slide right in under her friend zone. Be the best damn friend she ever had, hold her hand, make her laugh, and spoon with her in bed. But now there's another problem. Hayden is the one who is sliding under my skin, and maybe friendship isn't enough.

New Directions in Private Law Theory brings together some of the best new work on private law theory, reflecting the breadth of this increasingly important field. The contributions interrogate a wide range of topics including aspects of private law doctrine, its development, ordering and application. The authors adopt a variety of different approaches and contribute to ongoing and important debates about the moral foundations of private law, the individuation of areas of private law and the connections between private law and everyday moral experience. Questions addressed include: Does the diversity identified amongst claims in unjust enrichment mean that the category is incoherent? Are claims in tort law always about compensating for wrongs? How should we understand parties’ agreement in contract? The contributions shed new light on these and other topics, and the ways in which they intersect and open up new lines of scholarly enquiry. The book will be of interest to researchers working in private law and legal theory, but it will also appeal to those outside of law, most notably researchers with an interest in moral and political philosophy, economics and history.

Unlock the Force of Hope in Life's Hardest Fights Imagine the tide turning on your greatest challenges and problems. In a gritty and unique take on the story of Job, Benjamin Windle shows that flourishing does not come from a life devoid of loneliness, trauma, and anxiety. It's one lived with hope engineered for adversity. Along with Job's story, he pulls from J. R. R. Tolkien's fascinating concept of "eucatastrophe," showing that your greatest good starts at your point of deepest pain. True hope is not hype. It's not pretending that everything is fine. Hardship, not perfection, is the starting point of hope. Discover the secret to weathering life's storms, learn how to rise above daily imperfections, find out how to survive crises and come out better, and gain an ultimate perspective on every challenge you face in life. "No cliches. No hype. No psychobabble. Just a breathtakingly honest and fresh perspective on an ancient and life-changing truth."--DRS. LES & LESLIE PARROTT, #1 New York Times bestselling authors
