Equal Housing Lender NMLS # 354676Corp NMLS #3035 The Marble Faun Nathaniel Hawthorne The Marble Faun is Hawthorne's most unusual romance. Writing on the eve of the American Civil War, Hawthorne set his story in a fantastical Italy. The romance mixes elements of a fable, pastoral, Gothic novel, and travel guide. In the spring of 1858, Hawthorne was inspired to write his romance when he saw the Faun of Praxiteles in a Roman sculpture gallery. The theme, characteristic of Hawthorne, is guilt and the Fall of Man. The four main characters are Miriam, a beautiful painter who is compared to Eve, Beatrice Cenci, Lady Macbeth, Judith, and Cleopatra, and is being pursued by a mysterious, threatening Model; Hilda, an innocent copyist who is compared to the Virgin Mary; Kenyon, a sculptor, who represents rationalist humanism; and Donatello, the Count of Monti Beni, who is compared to Adam, resembles the Faun of Praxiteles, and is probably only half human. (Summary by Wikipedia) Divine Comedy (version 2 Dramatic Reading), The by Dante Alighieri (1265 - 1321) Valerio Di Stefano The Divine Comedy (in Italian, Divina Commedia, or just La commedia or Comedia) is an epic poem written by Dante Alighieri in the first decades of the 14th Century, during his exile from his native Florence. Considered the most important work of Italian literature, the poem has also has enormous historical influence on western literature and culture more generally. Dante represents the three realms of the afterlife in his three canticles (Inferno--Hell; Purgatorio--Purgatory; Paradiso--Paradise) in a way that reflects and, at the same time, goes beyond Christian tradition of the 14th Century. Dante is sometimes called "The father of the Italian language" for the linguistic influence of the Comedy, which helped to elevate his native Florentine Tuscan dialect to the level of national standard. The poem is written in the first person, and tells of Dante's journey through the three realms of the dead, lasting from the night before Good Friday to the Wednesday after Easter in the spring of Every Step of the Way Every Step of the Way Is a discussion forum podcast hosted by a group of twelve brothers that share scriptures, share the gospel, and tie it into real life situations. The idea for this show got started by a Facebook post that was exchanged by two members. The show originally began exclusively on Facebook live and quickly started to gain traction. With the Show popularity growing, the number of group members rose from 3 to 12. In February 2021, (three months before the show’s 1 year anniversary), the group was approached with the idea about becoming a Podcast. In the spring of 2021, Every Step of the Way Bible Discussions officially became a Podcast and is now a part of the Vision Live Network. The show airs once a week on Wednesdays at 8pm and is now available everywhere Podcast can be found.
