View Rights PortalTeresa von Avilas Schriften sind überraschend modern. Nicht nur, was sie sagt, sondern auch, wie sie es sagt. Sie schrieb spontan, ungekünstelt und nur über Dinge, die sie aus eigener Erfahrung kannte: über Alltagssorgen, zwischenmenschliche Probleme und über die Bewältigung geschäftlicher Unternehmungen. Ihre Schriften sprühen vor geistreichen Ausdrücken, Scherzen, humorvollen Anspielungen, kleinen boshaften Bemerkungen, eindringlichen Sprachbildern und sehr menschlichen Beobachtungen und Ratschlägen. Ihre wichtigste Botschaft aber – vor allem an Frauen – ist, sich selbst kennenzulernen, ein selbstbestimmtes und aktives Leben zu führen und die Spiritualität im Alltag zu leben – und so bedeutet Liebe auch, achtsam mit sich selbst zu sein. Alois Prinz hat aus dem umfangreichen Werk Teresa von Avilas all die Gedanken ausgewählt, die uns auch heute noch als Wegweiser für ein erfülltes und zufriedenes Leben dienen können.

This book provides a detailed analysis of women's involvement in litigation and other legal actions within their local communities in late-medieval England. It draws upon the rich records of three English towns - Nottingham, Chester and Winchester - and their courts to bring to life the experiences of hundreds of women within the systems of local justice. Through comparison of the records of three towns, and of women's roles in different types of legal action, the book reveals the complex ways in which individual women's legal status could vary according to their marital status, different types of plea and the town that they lived in. At this lowest level of medieval law, women's status was malleable, making each woman's experience of justice unique.
This book uniquely provides both the scientific basis of equine nutrition and the translation of that science into practical, day-to-day feeding advice. It summarises the latest research to provide readers with the evidence base needed to both confidently advise those who want to understand the science behind equine nutrition, and apply that evidence into practical advice for anyone who just wants to know how to feed horses. Both veterinary and animal science courses struggle to provide adequate nutrition training within their syllabuses. Much of the general information available is poorly explained and not evidence based. This book fills that gap, with the author team relaying over 50 cumulative years' experience teaching equine nutrition to both practising clinicians and students. Find answers to the most common queries and challenges encountered during nutritional consultations across 17 informative chapters, using typical case-based examples as experienced by the authors. Fully supported throughout with visual aids and photographic illustrations, they show how to easily increase compliance and understanding. Key topics covered include: How to take a diet history, including which forage and concentrates are most appropriate, and how to interpret the information on feed labels; How to take the horse's history, including workload, body weight and body fat scoring; Supporting achievable and sustainable fat loss in overweight horses; Appropriate rations across a range of performance disciplines and for breeding horses; Appropriate feeds and supplements for competition, including how to recognise potential hazards, signs of quality and issues of feed safety; How to use ration programmes, including a range of frequently asked questions for horses with specific nutritional requirements from allergies to obesity. A recommended resource to support the teaching of veterinary nutrition, this book should also be found on the bookshelf of all veterinarians, animal scientists, trainers, nutritionists, and nutritional advisors. This book includes forewords by Carl Lester, Honorary Fellow of the British Horse Society and recipient of an MBE for his services to Equestrianism, and Tim Mair, former President of the British Equine Veterinary Association.
