Zug um Zug : Wernes Katholiken im Machtspiel zwischen Berlin und Rom (9783754306413)

Der Kulturkampf, ein Machtspiel zwischen Staat und katholischer Kirche, betraf und bewegte die Empfindungen der Katholiken in Deutschland, vor allem im Königreich Preußen, in den letzten Jahrzehnten des 19. Jahrhunderts wie kein anderes Ereignis. Die Kleinstadt Werne war besonders betroffen von der Auseinandersetzung zwischen Berlin und Rom, zwischen Bismarck und Pius IX.. Priestern wurde unter harten Strafen verboten, ihre pastoralen Aufgaben zu erfüllen. Das Kapuzinerkloster wurde wie alle Klöster aufgelöst. Der Historiker Karl-Heinz Schwarze ordnet die Ereignisse vor Ort in den europaweiten Zusammenhang ein. Die katholischen Gläubigen, die geschlossen ihrer Kirche die Treue hielten, widerstanden dem staatlichen Druck mit zahlreichen Maßnahmen. Reichskanzler Otto von Bismarck hatte den Konflikt ausgelöst.

Journey into Blindness : An Inspirational Story of Overcoming Trauma and Regaining a Valuable Life (9781532028298)



Kent Christy offers his readers the moving story of his gradual loss of vision and the trauma and emotional turmoil this caused in his life. As he notes in his introduction, going totally blind is in many ways not so different from the experience of losing a limb, developing a debilitating illness, or going through the trauma of losing a loved one, or even one's home. A tumor found on his right optic nerve leads to the surgical removal of Kent's eye when he is a toddler. He copes with compromised vision and a prosthesis until his "good eye" begins to fail at sixty-three, eventually leading to blindness. He works through the stages of grief and learns to rebuild his life and find acceptance and hope.

Through sharing his experiences of coping with blindness, the author is testifying to others that it is possible to work through the many ups and downs of a challenging journey. It is possible to move forward and get back to the business of living one's life with joy and purpose. In addition, family, friends, and caregivers will gain insight and understanding of the process of loss and thereby be able to provide better-informed support.

In the summer of 1923, Shoeless Joe Jackson, who was banned from organized baseball in 1921 for his alleged participation in the 1919 Chicago Black Sox World Series scandal, was signed on to play baseball for the Americus, Georgia semi-pro team of the independent South Georgia league. With the Americus club struggling, Joe Jackson came on board and turned things around not only for the team but the entire league. There was controversy with his playing at first, but it soon settled and made way for an astounding run of our national pastime.
