Na Ve

Death at the Nave tells how a quiet school in a quiet English town suddenly becomes a melting pot of sex, violence, arson and death, with mayhem in the lab and love in the conservatory. Starting with a condom in a flower pot, a missing file and a torn test paper, a down-to-earth inspector and a headmaster who is prim and proper outside and surprisingly racy inside painfully sort out the tangle of relationships, ambitions and motivations that have given rise to the horrifying events that they witness.

"Nave's Topical Bible, " the best known of all topical bibles, has been a valuable Bible-study reference and a best-seller for more than 75 years. It is a comprehensive digest of over 20,000 topics and subtopics with more than 100,000 associated Scripture references. The most significant references for each topic actually include the full text of the verse cited--saving the need to separately look up each verse. Because "Nave's "groups verses by "idea" (or "topic"), it offers a better overview of relevant Scriptures than a concordance, which only lists or indexes verses according to specific words. This edition also includes the helpful Scripture index (left out of some other editions), which makes it possible for the reader studying a particular biblical text to locate every topic and grouping of Scripture in "Nave's "whenever a particular verse is included. That way, it is possible for the reader to study either all the verses related to a particular topic "or" all the topics related to a particular verse--it works both ways. For the pastor or teacher interested in saving hours of time but not willing to give their second best, and for anyone wanting to be challenged by what God has to say about a given subject, "Nave's Topical Bible" is the passport that will allow immediate and successful entry to the many points of interest.

La Nave del Recuerdo es una recopilación de varios de los mejores poemas y reflexiones del autor realizadas a lo largo de su dilatada vida. El amor y la familia aparecen como protagonistas del libro.

"This scholarly work fundamentally changes the way we think about the monastic church of Vezelay and its sculptures. Kirk Ambrose provides a new account of the celebrated sculptural ensemble at this important French Romanesque monastic church. Whereas scholarly attention in the past has focused almost exclusively on the Pentecostal portal, Ambrose devotes most of his analysis to the nave capitals. He considers how these works intersect with various aspects of monastic culture, from poetry to a sign language used during observed periods of silence. From this study it emerges how many of the sculptures resonated with communal practices and with interpretive modes in use at the site." "Deeming the attempt to uncover an underlying or unifying program to be an anachronistic project, Ambrose explores historically specific ways this ensemble cohered for medieval viewers. Covering a range of themes, including hagiography, ornament, and violence, he develops alternative approaches for the examination of serial imagery. As a result, this book has broad implications for the study of eleventh- and twelfth-century art in the West."--BOOK JACKET.

In City Nave, Betsy K. Brown explores the architecture of buildings, poems, and souls. Shape makes meaning--in the ornate corridors of cathedrals, the stark expanse of airports, the tidy monastic cells of sonnets, the spiraling stairs of terza rima, and the cluttered corners of memory. City Nave walks the reader through these places in an ongoing search for stories, stability, and sustenance.
