Higham, N. J.
THE CONVERT KINGS Power and Religious Affiliation in Early Anglo-Saxon England
Manchester University Press. Very Good. 1997. Softcover. 0719048281 . A bit of foxing to textblock. Minor shelfwear. ; The story of the conversion of the English to Christianity traditionally begins with Augustine's arrival in 597. This text offers a critical re-evaluation of the process of conversion which assesses what the act really meant to new converts who was responsible for it and why particular figures both accepted conversion for themselves and threw their influence behind the spread of Christianity. The conversion has often been seen as something which missionaries did to the English. The book restores responsibility to the English and in particular King Aethelbert Edwin Oswald and Oswin and it is their religious policies that form the focus of this text. ; 8.4 X 5.4 X 0.9 inches; 304 pages . Manchester University Press paperback

THE LAST CASTRATO AWARD WINNER
New York NY U.S.A.: Saint Martin's Press LLC 1995. 1st ed. page edges lightly dusted date at inside cover else near fine in dust jacket. Author's first mystery introduces poet-policeman who must solve a series of murders in Florence Italy . WINNER of the ARTHUR ELLIS AWARD for Best First Novel. "Cordelia Sinclair from Evanston Illinois takes up temporary residence in the Italian city of Florence not only to research early Italian opera for a doctoral thesis but also to start life anew putting her failed marriage behind her. Simultaneous to Cordelia's arrival in this sublime metropolis Umberto Cardinal Cafferelli is found murdered in one of Florence's most famous churches. Detective Inspector Carlo Arbati a poet like P. D. James' Adam Dalgliesh suspects a connection between the cardinal's brutal death and two previous ones with similar characteristics; readers know his hunch is correct early on--in fact we meet the murderer almost right away but what we don't know for a long time is his motive. Cordelia's scholarly research leads her to the body of the next victim and of course from that point on she's involved in Detective Arbati's investigation and her role is pivotal to the solution of the crimes which concerns a group of individuals who years ago wanted to restore Italian opera to its Renaissance roots including the reintroduction of castrati." -- Booklist.
