Looking for Allen Grebell --Notes --IndexOn a winter night in 1743, a local magistrate was stabbed to death in the churchyard of Rye by an angry butcher. Why did this gruesome crime happen? What does it reveal about the political, economic, and cultural patterns that existed in this small English port town? To answer these questions, this fascinating book takes us back to the mid-sixteenth century, when religious and social tensions began to fragment the quiet town of Rye and led to witch hunts, riots, and violent political confrontations. Paul Monod examines events over the course of the next two centuries, tracing the town's transition as it moved from narrowly focused Reformation norms to the more expansive ideas of the emerging commercial society. In the process, relations among the town's inhabitants were fundamentally altered. The history of Rye mirrored that of the whole nation, and it gives us an intriguing new perspective on England in the early modern period.MurderEnglandRyeCase studiesElectronic books.Murder364.15/23/094225Monod Paul Kl?eber1031441MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452345103321The murder of Mr. Grebell2491418UNINA02076nam 2200337 450 991067405590332120230624060457.0(CKB)4100000000588762(NjHacI)994100000000588762(EXLCZ)99410000000058876220230624d2017 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierMarine Oil Spills /Mervin F. Fingas, editorBasel, Switzerland :MDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute,2017.1 online resource (176 pages)3-03842-504-4 Annotation Major oil spills attract the attention of the public and the media. This was especially the case after the Deepwater Horizon spill. In recent years, this attention has created a global awareness of the risks of oil spills and the damage they do to the environment. Oil is a necessity in our industrial society, however, and a major component of our lifestyle. This means that the risk of major spills continues as does the interest in spills. The Deepwater Horizon spill began a new series of scientific studies that have greatly increased our understanding of oil spills. This book contains 10 such studies. These studies vary from toxicity studies to social studies of human reaction to spills and risk. Importantly, the book is a sampling of important new topics that have become important after the Deepwater Horizon spill. These new topics include new chemical and tracing techniques, new risk perception techniques, perspectives on human health and spills, and discussion on new fuels. This book makes a significant contribution to the understanding of facets of spills and explores 10 very different facets of oil spills.Oil spillsOil spills.628.16833Fingas Mervin F.NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910674055903321Marine Oil Spills3057212UNINA
