Download or read book Soul Divided written by Thomas Beck and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soul Divided: Gaining Perspective through Poetry consists of a collection of poems written over a wide range of topics including some from my personal life as well as some with a biblical, theological, and psychological focus. These were written because I believe that we all face the same problems, at least at the core, so the solutions would likewise be somewhat similar. I seek to point out some of the problems by using my own experiences and by telling stories that the reader might relate to. Although some of these poems are the problem/solution type, some are not, but all were written to pierce right into the heart of the reader. I also believe that in most of our lives, the answers to our questions are typically right in front of us, but a slight adjustment in perspective is needed in order to see them, which is what I try to make the reader aware of. As the title implies, we are most often torn between the different realities that we experience--things that we want to do and the things that we actually do--highlighting the spiritual battle that goes on internally. I would say that most people want to better their lives but are either too stubborn to admit it, don't know how, or they keep postponing the process, claiming that there is plenty of time in life to change. It is my attempt to persuade the reader in a few of these poems, but all of them offer a different perspective regarding their respective topics, which I think the reader would enjoy.

Book Synopsis Divine Creation in Ancient, Medieval, and Early Modern Thought by :
Download or read book Divine Creation in Ancient, Medieval, and Early Modern Thought written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-03-31 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his academic career Robert Crouse has insisted that the patristic and medieval philosophical and theological traditions, which have so profoundly shaped western culture, cannot be understood apart from the subtle and complex dialogue between Christianity and Hellenic culture out of which these traditions emerged. In this volume in Father Crouse’s honour, twenty-two eminent scholars from across North America and Europe examine various moments within the emergence of the doctrine of creation in the patristic and medieval periods, the Hebraic and Hellenic pre-history of this movement, as well as modern reactions to the partristic and medieval syntheses. Student and specialist alike will appreciate not only the depth of scholarly research clearly evident in the individual essays, but also the broad scope of the volume as a whole. Contributors include: Stephen Andrews, Stephen F. Brown, Mary T. Clark, RSCJ, Kevin Corrigan, Lawrence Dewan, Robert Dodaro, OSA, Wayne J. Hankey, Walter A. Hannam, Michael Harrington, Paige E. Hochschild, Dennis House, Edouard Jeauneau, Angus Johnston, Torrance Kirby, Terence J. Kleven, Marguerite Kussmaul, Matthew L. Lamb, D.

Book Synopsis A Thousand Divided Impressions by : Suzănica Tănase
Download or read book A Thousand Divided Impressions written by Suzănica Tănase and published by ePublishers & Editura Coresi. This book was released on with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a short excerpt from this deeply disturbing novel: “Here, in our dear Iaşi, death order was given. Here we started to die one by one. I say it differently, but to protect sensitivity I use common terms, as we do when we want to cover something shameful. “They clear the land!” For two days “they clear the land” in Iaşi. Do you know, kid, what that means? Does anyone know what this clearing means over years, how obsessively will it follow us, like a never ending nightmare? Iaşi cries, my dear, Iaşi has been bleeding for two days. Our Iaşi smells of pain, panic, rotten people in the streets, death. Houses are overturned, kids mourn murdered parents or parents scream in silence before criminal injustice. They’re all pushed in the streets, lined forcefully, and shot in deafening silence. My dear Hanna, how can I tell you what’s going on here? What to start with? How to continue? We’re locked in the house for two days of fear, and we get news from the hell out there. Only Mr. Popescu visits us and only because they had no courage yet to break our doors. Our friend Isaac was taken from home at night and beaten with the gun grip. He was taken to the station and thrown into cattle train cars, where other people like him died like flies. After being beaten with military boots, he was trampled, stripped naked and left half-conscious on a mound of corpses in a dark swamp. Now, writing these lines, we keep him hidden in the basement and I have a fatidic feeling that Isaac will never be the proud man you’ve known. Isaac managed to flee, but the guy in the basement is no longer Isaac. Many like him failed to flee, and more will be exterminated. After two days of horror, any Jewish family was beaten, denigrated, scorned or killed. We’re all on our knees. There is no hope anymore. How do we get over this, Hanna? How can we ever wipe out the tragedy of these days? I pray to God to help me understand, forgive, to be strong, but I keep thinking of the people lying in the street, over roses in front of the house. I look, every hour to the corner of the street, where only the day before, children and parents, holding hands, were lying in strange positions, faces twisted in terror, as if belonging to other worlds, in oily blood puddles. Every hour, I wait for someone to come, because they forgot to pick up shoes scattered around and cloth dolls. They forgot to clean traces. Further, towards Tei/Linden Trees area, there are still students with books out of their bags, lined up on stones, like slaughtered animals. Only the echo of their pain resounds between breathless walls. Our neighbors, our friends, our brothers, all were taken away, taken from warm beds and driven away to long trains, with monstrous wagons, without windows, with no water and no oxygen. The air darkened with so many cries in Iaşi, and so much blood going to heavens. It’s the beginning of the end for us all. I’m crying without tears, in silence. Everything got frozen inside me, and I’m afraid that when I trip, I’ll break up in thousands of pieces like an icicle that strikes the ground. But I’m writing to you, Hanna, I’m writing to you thinking the truth must be known, however tough and unfair it is. I’m writing to you because you still have a chance. Hanna, now read carefully what I’m writing further, for another letter won’t come to you from us anymore. We all leave tonight. You’ll find a ticket to Palestine in the envelope (that’s all we could buy). That means only you can get rid of this hell. I know you’ll think of your mother, your sisters, but it’s too late now, for God closed his eyes not only on Iaşi, but on the whole country. There is no longer time for us, for the universe has no time and space anymore. A ship leaves for Palestine almost every month; some settle there, others go further to America. Your ticket is for Struma, and hundreds of Jews will be in Constanţa Harbor in just a few months. Hide until then and wait for the unleashed storm to calm down. Romania joined the war.” The Struma ship was torpedoed and almost 800 Romanian Jews—men, women, children—died not far from Istanbul. Read this book... and weep to honor their memory. And to learn that we should fight for humanity in every way we can.

Book Synopsis Divided Legacy by : Harris L. Coulter
Download or read book Divided Legacy written by Harris L. Coulter and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2001-09-28 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divided Legacy (Vols. I-IV) is a history of Western medical philosophy from the time of Hippocrates to the twentieth century, treating it as a unified system of thought rather than a series of fortuitous discoveries. Dr. Coulter interprets the development of medical ideas as the product of a conflict between two opposed systems of thought, Empiricism and Rationalism. This second volume of Divided Legacy analyzes the dispute in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries over the criterion of reliability of medical thought and practice.
Book Synopsis Plato and the Divided Self by : Rachel Barney
Download or read book Plato and the Divided Self written by Rachel Barney and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-16 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plato's account of the tripartite soul is a memorable feature of dialogues like the Republic, Phaedrus and Timaeus: it is one of his most famous and influential yet least understood theories. It presents human nature as both essentially multiple and diverse - and yet somehow also one - divided into a fully human 'rational' part, a lion-like 'spirited part' and an 'appetitive' part likened to a many-headed beast. How these parts interact, how exactly each shapes our agency and how they are affected by phenomena like erôs and education is complicated and controversial. The essays in this book investigate how the theory evolves over the whole of Plato's work, including the Republic, Phaedrus and Timaeus, and how it was developed further by important Platonists such as Galen, Plutarch and Plotinus. They will be of interest to a wide audience in philosophy and classics.

Soulspeak shows that the heart and soul of one can truly capture many.
Book Synopsis Divided by Borders by : Joanna Dreby
Download or read book Divided by Borders written by Joanna Dreby and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Just a phone call away, but what anguish! As employers of migrants who care for our children, clean our houses, work in fast food restaurants--or on the shop floor--we are so often blind to the sacrifices made by parents who see no other choice but to leave their children back home in Mexico and come to the U.S. for work. With passion and insight, Divided by Borders explores the agony that unfolds between husbands and wives, across generation, and the consequences on children left behind and those who cross the border."--Carol B. Stack, author of All Our Kin and Call To Home "In this compelling, intimate, and heartbreaking look into the lives of Mexican migrants who leave children, Dreby brings an impressive blend of ethnography, interviews, and surveys with parents, children, and caregivers--collected over four years on both sides of the border--to bear. This is a story of migration where parental sacrifice is monumental, yet dreams for intergenerational mobility are ultimately dashed. The work is rich with both sociological insight and policy importance. This is the rare academic work that readers will find hard to put down."--Kathy Edin, author of Promises I Can Keep: Why Poor Women Choose Motherhood Before Marriage "Joanna Dreby's excellent book illuminates dimensions of migration and transnational life that have remained too often in the dark. Her focus on what happens inside the 'black box' of the migrant family shows how migrants and their children live their lives in difficult circumstances. She deepens our understanding of many important issues, and does so via intimate, ethnographic research. For example, her work sheds light on the gendered practices and ideologies surrounding parental leave taking, and sheds light on the incompatibility of migrant time and developmental time. Her work on the power children wield in the intra-family negotiations on whether and when to reunite, and the long term human cost of migration, is pathbreaking. Watching Joanna Dreby's work develop into this book over the years has been a great joy, and reading it is even more so."--Robert Courtney Smith, Professor of Sociology, Immigration Studies and Public Affairs, Baruch College School of Public Affairs, and Sociology Department, Graduate Center, CUNY "Family separation brought about by labor migration is not new, but hostile immigration policies have made for prolonged separations for parents and children. How do families cope? In this gripping and acutely observed study of Mexican migrant families, Joanna Dreby reveals the multi-faceted challenges facing the parents, their children and teens (who often harbor resentment against parents), and the grandmothers who serve as caregivers 'back home.' This engagingly written book is ideal for classroom adoption, and it will become a classic contribution to the scholarship on families and contemporary immigration."--Pierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo, author of God's Heart Has No Borders
Book Synopsis Plato and Levinas by : Tanja Staehler
Download or read book Plato and Levinas written by Tanja Staehler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-09-11 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the second half of the twentieth century, ethics has gained considerable prominence within philosophy. In contrast to other scholars, Levinas proposed that it be not one philosophical discipline among many, but the most fundamental and essential one. Before philosophy became divided into disciplines, Plato also treated the question of the Good as the most important philosophical question. Levinas's approach to ethics begins in the encounter with the other as the most basic experience of responsibility. He acknowledges the necessity to move beyond this initial, dyadic encounter, but has problems extending his approach to a larger dimension, such as community. To shed light on this dilemma, Tanja Staehler examines broader dimensions which are linked to the political realm, and the problems they pose for ethics. Staehler demonstrates that both Plato and Levinas come to identify three realms as ambiguous: the erotic, the artistic, and the political. In each case, there is a precarious position in relation to ethics. However, neither Plato nor Levinas explores ambiguity in itself. Staehler argues that these ambiguous dimensions can contribute to revealing the Other’s vulnerability without diminishing the fundamental role of unambiguous ethical responsibility.
