Lucy Smith

This inspirational guide explains how a botanical sketchbook can take many forms and hold different meanings. It shows how a sketchbook can be used as a workbook to study plants through drawing and painting in a variety of media. It includes examples of preliminary work for finished pieces, experiments in colour and exploration of plant anatomy, and shows how these studies can be made away from the pressure of creating the perfect, polished piece of final botanical artwork. It goes on to feature sketchbooks created for their own sake as a curated space for an artist to draw and record plants over a period of time, or a particular place.

Historia del profeta José, por su madre se presenta como una relectura íntima del ciclo josefino, articulada desde la voz materna para reordenar la narración bíblica en clave afectiva y doméstica. El contenido enfatiza la infancia, la perdida y la resiliencia, alternando episodios conocidos los sueños, la venta, el ascenso en Egipto con una focalizacion que privilegia la experiencia del hogar y el duelo. El estilo es sobrio y didactico, cercano a la prosa devocional, con un tono exhortativo que busca extraer lecciones morales sin renunciar a la densidad simbolica del relato original; su contexto remite a tradiciones de reescritura religiosa y a la literatura edificante. De Lucy Smith, el libro sugiere una autora interesada en la pedagogia espiritual y en la recuperacion de voces marginales dentro de narrativas canonicas. La eleccion de la madre como narradora apunta a una sensibilidad por la perspectiva femenina y por la mediacion familiar de la fe, probablemente alimentada por practicas de lectura biblica, enseñanza comunitaria o un entorno confesional donde la ejemplaridad historica se concibe como guia etica. Recomendaria esta obra a lectores de estudios religiosos, educacion moral o reinterpretaciones biblicas, pues ofrece una entrada accesible y, a la vez, conceptualmente sugerente: desplaza el heroismo hacia la afectividad y permite reconsiderar providencia, sufrimiento y memoria desde una perspectiva raramente central.

History of Joseph Smith, by His Mother is a biography of Joseph Smith, founder of the Latter Day Saint movement, according to his mother, Lucy Mack Smith. Shortly following the death of Joseph Smith in 1844, and into 1845, Lucy Mack Smith dictated her recollections and family story to Nauvoo schoolteacher Martha Jane Coray who compiled these books of notes and other sources into a manuscript. Publication of the book came with the great controversy. After its publication, Brigham Young declared the book to be a "tissue of lies" and wanted corrections made. Young possibly opposed the book because of his own conflicts with its publisher, Orson Pratt. Lucy Smith portrayed the Smith family as the legitimate leaders of the church, which Young may also have seen as a challenge to his leadership.
