CONSUELO POLLARD [later Wade]
1908 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A WILD AND WANTON MEMPHIS TEENAGER WHO SURELY GAVE HER MOTHER GRAY HAIR AND ALL THE BOYS A BROKEN HEART
MEMPHIS TENNESSEE TN. Good. 1908. On offer is a super original 1908 manuscript diary handwritten by the extremely popular and very wild Consuelo Pollard a 17 year old girl who lived in Memphis Tennessee with her parents and older brother Thomas. Census info mentions brothers Edwin and William too. No shrinking violet she writes that she was very very popular swamped with admirers and many proposals. Mrs. Pollard had a hard time keeping her teenager in line and was not a happy parent. Here are some snippets: "I ought not put this in this book but can't help it. Mamma got mad at me indeed it is nothing new and raised the ___. Wish I was dead or away off somewhere. She always picks on me anyway. I certainly wish I was a boy. Not that I want her to care for me but so as I could get out and do what I wanted to and would try and never be near so as I would be in the way. It certainly is awful to get the ___ if you do it and if you don't do it. Thurs 12 Stayed at Bonds all day had a good time. Went home to Marias and Judge blessed her out. Then she stayed all night at our house. Dana and I played Tom and Maria at Five Hundred. Fri 13Will came down. Walked home with Maria just as Judge was leaving. We hid behind a tree and let him go. Then raked up everything cooked took magazines "Home Runs" and went to the woods and had a picnic for two.' Her steady boyfriend Leslie was away often and she didn't hesitate to take advantage by going out with other boys but Leslie was not happy with that: 'Leslie came in the evening and Maria also was here. He and I started out driving and old Maria pressed in with us so we came home. Leslie and I had an awful fuss that night asked me to marry him and run off that night. I wouldn't do it so he got mad. I came in and told mamma everything he said. I certainly was blue and didn't sleep a wink that night.' On a much more frightening note her family is devastated by a house fire: 'Retired and about 4 oclock in the morning our house caught on fire. Kate jumped out the back window with her merry widow - had not another thing the cop broke the front window and woke me up.' More trouble comes to the family later in the year: a shooting incident involving the man next door her brother and a black man: 'While he was here there was a shot and I didn't notice it very much. Five minutes later one next door and it was the carpenter shooting at a negro who was stealing lumber five minutes later I heard something and Tom got the pistol and shot at a man.' Tucked in ephemera adds more depth to the 82 page 7" x 4 1/2" diary which overall is G.; Manuscript; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF CONSUELO POLLARD MEMPHIS TENNESSEE ROMANCE DATING WILD TEENAGERS GENDER STUDIES WOMEN'S STUDIES PRE SUFFRAGE SOCIAL STUDIES EARLY 20TH CENTURY SOCIAL HISTORY AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT AUTOGRAPHED AUTHORS AMERICANA MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY ARCHIVE DIARY DIARIES antiquité contrat vélin document manuscrit papier Antike Brief Pergament Dokument Manuskript Papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antigüedad hecho vitela documento manuscrito Papel . unknown

Conte Giuseppe
Maestà Maria Pia di Savoia
ill., br. ... il suo essere donna e regina destavano meraviglia ovunque si recasse e a chiunque la incontrasse. Il suo portamento era diventato a tutti gli effetti regale, il suo modo di vestire, i gioielli che sapeva elegantemente indossare, il tono della voce quasi basso ma sicuro e scandito quando esprimeva i suoi pensieri erano oggetto di ammirazione...

Conte Nico
Tutti a bordo. Oltre le colonne d'Ercole della pandemia
ill., br. Il viaggio inizia nella Primavera 2020, quando Nico, aspirante giornalista, si ritrova chiuso in casa come milioni di altre persone. Il computer diventa la sua nave, la tastiera è il suo timone; poi, spiegate le vele della fantasia, l'autore approda di volta in volta nelle vite di alcuni personaggi del mondo del giornalismo, dello sport, dell'arte, dello spettacolo, della musica. Ventitrè interviste, con introduzione del giornalista sportivo Riccardo Mancini, in cui tante sono le domande che Conte pone ai suoi famosi interlocutori e che, come scrive il preparatore atletico Carlo Nicolini nella postfazione, sono da "leggere tutto d'un fiato".

Conti Stefano
L'apostata tra realtà e leggenda. Il Medioevo cristiano contro Giuliano il pagano
br. Giuliano, prima di essere un imperatore, fu un filosofo e, soprattutto, un uomo. Un uomo e uno scrittore vissuto alla fine dell'impero romano, che nel Medioevo viene trasformato in un mostro infernale; un filosofo tollerante che, dagli autori di tutta Europa, viene additato come un feroce persecutore di cristiani; un imperatore che ha cercato di riformare un paganesimo di stampo neoplatonico e di opporsi alla Chiesa e, proprio per questo, è passato alla storia con un solo epiteto dispregiativo: l'Apostata. Gli autori si sono occupati per secoli di lui, ma quanto c'è del vero Giuliano? Molti episodi furono inventati dagli storici tardo antichi, per poi ingigantirsi in quelli medievali. Giuliano diventa una sorta di Faust ante litteram, che stringe un patto col diavolo per giungere al regno e, una volta al comando, cerca di contrastare l'avanzata del cristianesimo: un crudele tiranno che massacra cristiani innocenti. Una figura storica reale, che tentò di preservare la tradizione religiosa romana, diviene nel Medioevo europeo l'Anticristo.

Conticelli G. (cur.)
Adone Zoli. Cristiano, patriota, avvocato
br. Nell'impegno dell'avvocato Adone Zoli (1887-1960), protagonista nella Resistenza fiorentina, ministro e presidente del Consiglio, si rintracciano i fondamenti della Repubblica democratica: i valori della responsabilità professionale nel ministero forense, la capacità di attuazione della Carta Costituzionale con l'istituzione della Corte Costituzionale e del Consiglio Superiore della Magistratura, la consapevolezza di una politica ispirata alla giustizia sociale nel governo della Nazione. Il presidente emerito della Corte Costituzionale Ugo De Siervo presenta la raccolta di studi di Pier Luigi Ballini, Giulio Conticelli, Piero Roggi, Fabrizio Ariani, che approfondiscono ciascuno un profilo della vita e dell'attività dello statista, insieme con i messaggi inediti di Adone, Angiolo Maria e Gian Carlo Zoli dell'autunno 1943 dal carcere nazifascista della Fortezza da Basso di Firenze, curati da Maria Frunzio e Giorgio Frunzio.

Conybeare, Catherine
PAULINUS NOSTER Self and Symbols in the Letters of Paulinus of Nola
Dustjacket protected in mylar. ; This literate and accessible study examines the profound impact Paulinus had on Christian thought during a crucial period of its development. The letters of Paulinus and his correspondents portray an early Christian 'web' of shared concepts, intellectual discussion, and group development. Catherine Conybeare examines how the very process of writing and transmitting letters between members of a community helped to bind that community together and to aid the creation of ideas that would continue to reverberate for centuries. Paulinus was key to that group iconic as a model of behavior, as a conversion success story, and as an intellectual contributor able to bridge the old world and the new. A subtext shows how neoplatonism was christianized by this network of new converts which included Augustine among others. ; Oxford Early Christian Studies; 200 pages
