Salo Solo. El patrullero del amor
by Mauricio KartunSalomón, un viudo de mediana edad, decide salir a la aventura de encontrar pareja sentimental. Y no sentirse solo. «-Circule, Salomón. Circule. En los lugares de siempre no va a encontrar nada: con las que tenía que pasar ya pasó, y con las otras no va a pasar nunca. Ábrase y circule.» Salomón Goldfarb es viudo y ha pasado largo los sesenta. Cerró su localcito de cueros y vive del alquiler. Intenta seguir con su vida pero la soledad lo abruma. Entra en aquel círculo -literalmente vicioso- del ansiolítico y el desvelo; y una tarde, en busca rutinaria de la receta mensual, un médico nuevo de la prepaga lo lanza a circular. Salo, bajito, inseguro siempre, decide salir a la conquista y comienzan allí sus aventuras. Frecuenta teatros, talleres literarios, seminarios de filosofía. Abre una cuenta en Tinder; recupera el contacto con su prima, a quien no ve hace décadas; se acerca a su vecina del piso de abajo; se va de camping; baila; hace de extra en una película y hasta se une a un grupo de activistas provida. Sin demasiado éxito, pero decidido a lograrlo como sea, Salo se convierte en el patrullero del amor. Mauricio Kartun, con el humor irreverente que conocemos de su teatro, despliega en esta novela su finísimo oído, su habilidad para contar historias y su maestría para crear esos personajes inolvidables, que siempre nos recuerdan lo patético, pero también lo sensible de la condición humana. La crítica dijo... Sobre Terrenal. Pequeño misterio ácrata: «La felicidad de la obra teatral perfecta.»Analía Melgar, Perfil «Una obra de excelencia sobrenatural que logró convertirse en el mayor éxito del teatro alternativo argentino de los últimos años.»Juan Carlos Antón, La Prensa «Uno de esos textos que se van a estudiar por siempre, que van a ser joyas, clásicos de la dramaturgia nacional.»Pablo Gorlero, La Nación Sobre La vis cómica «Un despliegue de talento que me dejó sin palabras.»Osvaldo Quiroga, El refugio de la cultura Sobre Salomé de chacra «Un delicioso cóctel de clasicismo griego, gore, diablada, tabladillo telúrico y barricada de insurgencia. Este es un Kartun desatado y en estado de gracia.»Luis Mazas, Veintitrés Sobre Ala de criados «Una obra que roza la perfección teatral y literaria.»Olga Cosentino, Noticias
Salonica, City of Ghosts: Christians, Muslims and Jews 1430-1950
by Mark MazowerSalonica, located in northern Greece, was long a fascinating crossroads metropolis of different religions and ethnicities, where Egyptian merchants, Spanish Jews, Orthodox Greeks, Sufi dervishes, and Albanian brigands all rubbed shoulders. Tensions sometimes flared, but tolerance largely prevailed until the twentieth century when the Greek army marched in, Muslims were forced out, and the Nazis deported and killed the Jews. As the acclaimed historian Mark Mazower follows the city's inhabitants through plague, invasion, famine, and the disastrous twentieth century, he resurrects a fascinating and vanished world.
Salsa Dancing Into The Social Sciences: Research In An Age Of Info-glut
by Kristin LukerYou might think that dancing doesn't have a lot to do with social research, and doing social research is probably why you picked this book up in the first place. But trust me. Salsa dancing is a practice as well as a metaphor for a kind of research that will make your life easier and better. Savvy, witty, and sensible, this unique book is both a handbook for defining and completing a research project, and an astute introduction to the neglected history and changeable philosophy of modern social science.

Salted with Fire (The Cullen Collection #36)
by George MacDonaldThe Scottish literary master&’s final full-length realistic novel—his prodigal son tour de force. MacDonald&’s 1897 novel, Salted with Fire, is replete with dense Scottish dialect and spiritual themes. The repentance (through fire) of young minister James Blatherwick, who recognizes the sham of his pretended spirituality, is reminiscent of Thomas Wingfold&’s spiritual journey. It also embodies in fictional form one of MacDonald&’s signature themes from his first volume of Unspoken Sermons, &“The Consuming Fire.&” Along with these themes, the return of one of MacDonald&’s favorite character &“types,&” the humble Scottish peasant bard, in the person of cobbler John MacLear, establishes Salted with Fire as a work of lasting importance in the MacDonald corpus. It arguably offers a fitting climax to MacDonald&’s life message. This new edition by MacDonald biographer Michael Phillips streamlines the occasionally ponderous Victorian narrative style and updates the thick Doric dialect into readable English.

Salty Wives, Spirited Mothers, and Savvy Widows: Capable Women of Purpose and Persistence in Luke's Gospel
by F. Scott SpencerEngaging feminist hermeneutics and philosophy in addition to more traditional methods of biblical study, Salty Wives, Spirited Mothers, and Savvy Widows demonstrates and celebrates the remarkable capability and ingenuity of several women in the Gospel of Luke. While recent studies have exposed women's limited opportunities for ministry in Luke, Scott Spencer pulls the pendulum back from a negative feminist-critical pole toward a more constructive center. Granting that Luke sends somewhat "mixed messages" about women's work and status as Jesus' disciples, Spencer analyzes such women as Mary, Elizabeth, Joanna, Martha and Mary, and the infamous yet intriguing wife of Lot -- whom Jesus exhorts his followers to "remember" -- as well as the unrelentingly persistent women characters in Jesus' parables.
Salud y Shalom: Conversations with Jewish Veterans of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade
by Joseph ButwinJewish volunteers made up almost one-third of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade (ALB) during the Spanish Civil War. Most belonged to a Communist Party focused on the antifascist goals of the Popular Front and faithful to the internationalist idea of erasing ethnicity, including Jewish ethnicity. Joseph Butwin’s oral history presents conversations with ten Jewish veterans of the ALB. Recorded from 1992–94 in the wake of European communism’s collapse, the interviews explore the milieus that formed the volunteers. Immigrants established the secular Yiddish-speaking socialism that became a part of many Jewish American communities. Their children, reacting to economic depression and the rise of fascism, enlisted in the ALB. Butwin follows their stories from their youthful motives and choices through their lives as Jews and leftists, and records the reckonings that took place as they reflected on their past. Insightful and revealing, Salud y Shalom explores the forces of identity and history that led young Jewish leftists to fight fascism.

Salvaje de corazón: Descubramos el secreto del alma masculina
by John EldredgeDios diseñó al hombre para arriesgarse, dice John Eldredge. Si no, mire los sueños y anhelos escritos en el corazón de todo muchacho: Ser héroe, ser guerrero, vivir una vida de aventura y riesgo. Tristemente, la mayoría abandona esos sueños y anhelos... con la ayuda de un cristianismo que al parecer solo lo presiona a ser «un buen chico». No en balde muchos hombres evitan la iglesia, y los que no a menudo son pasivos y en extremo aburridos. En este provocativo libro, Eldredge ofrece a las mujeres una mirada al verdadero corazón del hombre, y permite a los hombres ser lo que Dios quiso que fueran al diseñarlos: arriesgados, apasionados, vivos y libres.

Salvar a los Judíos Lo que los Judíos no saben acerca de Jesús
by Bernard Levine Priscila OviedoQué triste y qué terrible tragedia es que la nación judía, la 'Gente del Libro' no crea en Jesús. Los judíos están obsesionados con seguir, guardar y obedecer todas las muchas leyes y tradiciones hechas por el hombre que sus rabinos han compilado. Debido a que los sacrificios de sangre del Antiguo Testamento han sido eliminados y ya no se observan, los judíos no pueden purificar sus pecados y perdonarlos sin sangre. Hay tanto acerca de Jesús que los judíos nunca han escuchado, y no saben ... ¿Les dirás a los judíos acerca de Jesús?

Salvation
by Valerie Martinnspired by the great frescoes of St Francis of Assisi, the highly-praised author of ITALIAN FEVER has written a new and wholly original biography. Composed in a series of vividly realised 'panels', SALVATION begins with the dying Francesco - and the rivalry for his body among the towns of medieval Italy - and moves back in time toward his mystical conversion. The old friar, exhausted by illness and division among his brotherhood, gives way to the zealous missionary who joins the Fifth Crusade, confident that he can convert Sultan al-Kamil in Egypt. Later, we see the unwashed and innocent revolutionary, unafraid to lecture a pope on Christ's message, and finally the frivolous young Francesco on the deserted road where his encounter with a leper leads him to an ecstatic embrace of God. SALVATION is a window into a medieval world whose physicality and purity have rarely been rendered with such visceral power. Most important, it is a unique, immediate portrait of the great mystic, whose legend has resonated through the centuries in both religious and secular realms.

Salvation and Sovereignty: A Molinist Approach
by Kenneth KeathleyIn Salvation and Sovereignty, Kenneth Keathley asks, “What shall a Christian do who is convinced of certain central tenets of Calvinism but not its corollaries?” He then writes, “I see salvation as a sovereign work of grace but suspect that the usual Calvinist understanding of sovereignty (that God is the cause of all things) is not sustained by the biblical witness as a whole.” <p><p>Aiming to resolve this matter, the author argues that just three of Calvinism’s five TULIP points can be defended scripturally and instead builds on the ROSES acronym first presented by Timothy George (Radical depravity, Overcoming grace, Sovereign election, Eternal life, Singular redemption). In relation, Keathley looks at salvation and sovereignty through the lens of Molinism, a doctrine named after Luis Molina (1535-1600) that is based on a strong notion of God’s control and an equally firm affirmation of human freedom.
