Memories of Megan by Rita Herron
The development of a modern' form of scientific enquiry occurred in the late Middle Ages and under the umbrella of Christianity, but Leupin argues that the desire to quantify and find empirical bases for things goes back much earlier than Galileo and Copernicus. This study attempts to prove that an epistemological break took place within Christianity and that it can be traced back to one particular dogma that is unique to Christian faith, that of incarnation. Through studying the writings of Cicero, Quintilian, St Augustine and many others, Leupin considers the dogma involving the embodiment of God and the relationship between discourse and literature.Rita Herron, a New York Times bestselling author, fell in love with books when she was eight years old, when she read her first Trixie Belden mystery. She left her profession as a kindergarten teacher for a career as a writer twenty years ago, and she now has more than ninety romantic novels to her credit. She particularly enjoys writing dark romantic suspense stories set in little southern communities. RT Book Reviews gave her a Career Achievement Award for her work in Series Romantic Suspense, as well as the National Readers' Choice Award and a RITA nomination. Her Slaughter Creek novels (Last to Tell and Her Dying Breath) and Graveyard Falls novels (All the Dead Girls, All the Lovely Faces, and All the Gorgeous Brides) have garnered glowing reviews. Rita is a proud mother and grandma who hails from Atlanta, Georgia.
