Book Synopsis The Human Condition by : Joe M. Kapolyo
Download or read book The Human Condition written by Joe M. Kapolyo and published by Langham Global Library. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human beings are complex. For all our contemporary knowledge and ability, however wonderful and widely available, people around the world face a crisis of human identity that calls into question the meaning of existence and the basis of moral behaviour. Responding to these challenges, Joe Kapolyo recognizes both the authority of the Bible, which teaches that people are created in the image of God but also corrupted by rebellion and sin, and the relevance of distinctly African perspectives on what it means to be human. Although he reads these perspectives critically, they lead him to reaffirm the biblical vision of redeemed human life in community in Christ. This vision offers a solution to the crisis of identity experienced by people who have forgotten who they are - and whose they are.

Book Synopsis AFRICANS IN BONDAGE BONDAGE by : Dipo Toby Alakija
Download or read book AFRICANS IN BONDAGE BONDAGE written by Dipo Toby Alakija and published by Calvary Rock Resource. This book was released on with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BOOK ONE: AFRICANS STILL IN FETTERS Patrice Emery Lumumba, Congo’s First Prime Minister and President said at All-African Conference in 1960, “The Colonialists care for nothing for Africa for her own sake. They are attracted by African riches and their actions are guided by the desire to preserve their interests in Africa against the wishes of the African people. For colonialists allmeans are good if they help them to possess these riches.” An African adage says; “if you close your eyes to facts, you will learn through accidents.” The above and so many other quotes which are used as emphases on the results of research works into the claims of some notable African leaders indicate that Western Nations are not as friendly as they seemright from the time of slave trade. The playwright attempts to present the results of his research works on why African nations are never free from conflicts, economic, social and political servitude through the use of different academic papers that are treated in educational dramas with the titles “Grand Conspiracies Against Africa”, “The Speeches Of Discord”, “The Conspiracy Theory Of History”, “The Brain Development Of A Child”, “The Problem With Technology”, “The Handover Of Legacy”, “The Warmongering Nations”, “The Slave Masters In Africa” and “Mothers: The DeterminantsOf Destinies” in book one. BOOK TWO: SPIRITUAL BONDAGE With studied cases that are peculiar to Africa, the author attempts to explain some mysteries relating to cultism; witchcraft; black magic and others. These dramas titled: “The Threats Of Cult Members On Campus”, The Choice Of Death”, “Lagidi: The Spirit Husband”, “The Mirage Of A Marriage”, “Truth Is The Weapon Of Freedom”, “The Enemies Of Marriage”, “The Wrath Of An Accuser” and “House Of God In A Mess” are mostly based on real life experiences. They paint vivid pictures of how thespirit realm can influence the physical world.
Book Synopsis Story of the Eye by : Georges Bataille
Download or read book Story of the Eye written by Georges Bataille and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-09-26 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bataille’s first novel, published under the pseudonym ‘Lord Auch’, is still his most notorious work. In this explicit pornographic fantasy, the young male narrator and his lovers Simone and Marcelle embark on a sexual quest involving sadism, torture, orgies, madness and defilement, culminating in a final act of transgression. Shocking and sacreligious, Story of the Eye is the fullest expression of Bataille’s obsession with the closeness of sex, violence and death. Yet it is also hallucinogenic in its power, and is one of the erotic classics of the twentieth century.
Book Synopsis Patrick van Rensburg by : Kevin Shillington
Download or read book Patrick van Rensburg written by Kevin Shillington and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patrick van Rensburg (1931–2017) was an anti-apartheid activist and self-made ‘alternative educationist’ whose work received international recognition with the Right Livelihood Award in 1981. Born in KwaZulu-Natal into what he described as a ‘very ordinary South African family that believed in the virtue of racism’, Van Rensburg became a self-styled rebel who tirelessly pursued his own vision of a brighter future for emerging societies in post-colonial southern Africa. His emotional and intellectual struggle against his upbringing and cultural roots led him to reject his life of white privilege in South Africa. Determined to prevent the emergence of a privileged black elite in post-colonial society, he devoted his life to implementing an alternative, egalitarian approach to education, focusing on quality and functional schooling for the majority. Rewarded with the internationally prestigious Right Livelihood Award for his unique contribution to education, he saw this work as a ‘necessary tool of development’. Exiled from South Africa in 1960 because of his involvement in the London boycott campaign that gave birth to the Anti-Apartheid Movement, Van Rensburg moved to Botswana (then Bechuanaland). There he founded cooperatives, provided vocational training and was among the earliest educationists to espouse the discipline of development studies. Perhaps his best-known legacy is the Swaneng Hill School, which he founded to provide an educational home for primary school ‘dropouts’ through a curriculum that combined theory and practice, and academic and manual labour. He involved his pupils in building their school, running it, providing their own food, and making their own equipment and furniture. Van Rensburg was an innovative and charismatic visionary who captured the zeitgeist of the late twentieth century, and whose work and vision still have resonance for debates in educational policy today.
Book Synopsis Suicide of a Superpower by : Patrick J. Buchanan
Download or read book Suicide of a Superpower written by Patrick J. Buchanan and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times–bestselling conservative author explains why he believes certain social trends will lead to the downfall of the United States. America is disintegrating. The “one Nation under God, indivisible” of the Pledge of Allegiance is passing away. In a few decades, that America will be gone forever. In its place will arise a country unrecognizable to our parents. This is the thrust of Pat Buchanan’s Suicide of a Superpower, his most controversial and thought-provoking book to date. Buchanan traces the disintegration to three historic changes: America’s loss of her cradle faith, Christianity; the moral, social, and cultural collapse that have followed from that loss; and the slow death of the people who created and ruled the nation. And as our nation disintegrates, our government is failing in its fundamental duties, unable to defend our borders, balance our budgets, or win our wars. How Americans are killing the country they profess to love, and the fate that awaits us if we do not turn around, is what Suicide of a Superpower is all about. Praise for Suicide of a Superpower “Suicide of a Superpower traces the changes in governance and culture in America that foreshadow a decline of epic proportions. . . . Buchanan is no stranger to controversy. Nor is he prone to exaggerate. The crises he describes are real, and he is not afraid to say they ‘may prove too much for our democracy to cope with.’” —Jack Kenny, The New American Magazine “Progressives may recoil at these assertions as well as his positions on immigration, affirmative action and morality, though they may share his sentiments regarding war and America’s unnecessary military presence around the world. Not to disappoint his loyal followers, Buchanan reveals the essence of conservative thought and its origins with clarity and precision.” —Publishers Weekly

Book Synopsis Colonialism to Cabinet Crisis by : Andrew C. Ross
Download or read book Colonialism to Cabinet Crisis written by Andrew C. Ross and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2009 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late Andrew C. Ross was a Scottish missionary in Malawi between 1958 and 1965 and one of the founding members of the Malawi Congress Party. Like many other Scottish missionaries of the period, he deeply opposed the Central African Federation, and was a strong supporter of the emerging Malawian nationalist movement. When, following the declaration of a State of Emergency in March 1959, many of the political leaders of the Nyasaland African Congress were detained, Andrew regularly visited those held at Kanjedza near Limbe - visits which helped to deepen both his friendship with them, and his commitment to their cause. Thus, when Orton Chirwa was released from detention later in 1959, and persuaded to become the temporary leader of the newly formed Malawi Congress Party, Andrew Ross was one of the first to join, becoming the proud holder of MCP card number six. This book covers the period 1875-1965 and includes a Foreword by Professor George Shepperson.
