Central College

Resumen del Libro

Libro Central College

The area of Amalthea, better known as Central College, was platted by Timothy Lee in 1816. Situated three miles southeast of Westerville, Central College was built along Big Walnut Creek. A college known as the Blendon Institute was formed in 1832. In 1842, the institute was given to the Presbyterian church to form the Central College of Ohio. However, due to financial struggles, the school--later known as Central College Academy--closed in 1894. The Ohio School for the Deaf Alumni Association purchased the defunct school property and created the Ohio Home for the Aged and Infirm Deaf; it was the first home of its kind in the state. The village of Central College filled with excitement when the Cleveland, Mt. Vernon and Delaware Railroad was slated to pass though town in 1873. However, the railroad announced that it would instead pass though Westerville, and because of the lack of public transportation though Central College, the town failed to grow.

Completó su estancia en España como preso político durante tres meses del otoño de...

Afrodita en el trópico

Libro Afrodita en el trópico

Perhaps the opening paragraph from Paul Larson¿s (Baylor University) prologue to the Epistola ad Mahomatem II summarizes what this new Scripta Humanistica volume has to offer to readers of literature and history alike: ¿This new scholarly edition certainly begs the question: how can a fifteenth century letter from the then Pope Pius II to the Muslim conqueror of Constantinople have any relevance for contemporary scholars and students in the early 21st century? Embroiled as we are in chaotic and tumultuous religious and political conflict in Europe and the Middle East, perhaps the answer is...

Breve historia del franquismo

Libro Breve historia del franquismo

¿Se ha dicho todo sobre Francisco Franco? ¿Vivió España con Franco el periodo de paz más largo de su historia? ¿Se sintieron los españoles presos de una dictadura? ¿Era Franco un fascista? ¿Fue el franquismo una dictadura o un régimen unipersonal? ¿Hubo presos políticos? ¿Qué pasó con ellos? Mucho se ha escrito acerca de Franco y el franquismo: biografías del Caudillo, génesis y evolución del régimen, acontecimientos oscuros durante aquellos cuarenta años y otros demasiado diáfanos. Franco y el franquismo continúan siendo recurrentemente invocados en el actual debate...
