Book Synopsis Rescuing Socrates by : Roosevelt Montas
Download or read book Rescuing Socrates written by Roosevelt Montas and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Dominican-born academic tells the story of how the Great Books transformed his life—and why they have the power to speak to people of all backgrounds What is the value of a liberal education? Traditionally characterized by a rigorous engagement with the classics of Western thought and literature, this approach to education is all but extinct in American universities, replaced by flexible distribution requirements and ever-narrower academic specialization. Many academics attack the very idea of a Western canon as chauvinistic, while the general public increasingly doubts the value of the humanities. In Rescuing Socrates, Dominican-born American academic Roosevelt Montás tells the story of how a liberal education transformed his life, and offers an intimate account of the relevance of the Great Books today, especially to members of historically marginalized communities. Montás emigrated from the Dominican Republic to Queens, New York, when he was twelve and encountered the Western classics as an undergraduate in Columbia University’s renowned Core Curriculum, one of America’s last remaining Great Books programs. The experience changed his life and determined his career—he went on to earn a PhD in English and comparative literature, serve as director of Columbia’s Center for the Core Curriculum, and start a Great Books program for low-income high school students who aspire to be the first in their families to attend college. Weaving together memoir and literary reflection, Rescuing Socrates describes how four authors—Plato, Augustine, Freud, and Gandhi—had a profound impact on Montás’s life. In doing so, the book drives home what it’s like to experience a liberal education—and why it can still remake lives.

Book Synopsis The People and the Books: 18 Classics of Jewish Literature by : Adam Kirsch
Download or read book The People and the Books: 18 Classics of Jewish Literature written by Adam Kirsch and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible introduction to the classics of Jewish literature, from the Bible to modern times, by "one of America’s finest literary critics" (Wall Street Journal). Jews have long embraced their identity as “the people of the book.” But outside of the Bible, much of the Jewish literary tradition remains little known to nonspecialist readers. The People and the Books shows how central questions and themes of our history and culture are reflected in the Jewish literary canon: the nature of God, the right way to understand the Bible, the relationship of the Jews to their Promised Land, and the challenges of living as a minority in Diaspora. Adam Kirsch explores eighteen classic texts, including the biblical books of Deuteronomy and Esther, the philosophy of Maimonides, the autobiography of the medieval businesswoman Glückel of Hameln, and the Zionist manifestoes of Theodor Herzl. From the Jews of Roman Egypt to the mystical devotees of Hasidism in Eastern Europe, The People and the Books brings the treasures of Jewish literature to life and offers new ways to think about their enduring power and influence.

Book excerpt: Extending the discussion of critical content analysis to the visual realm of picturebooks and graphic novels, this book provides a clear research methodology for understanding and analyzing visual imagery. Offering strategies for "reading" illustrations in global and multicultural literature, chapter authors explore and bring together critical theory and social semiotics while demonstrating how visual analysis can be used to uncover and analyze power, ideologies, inequity, and resistance in picturebooks and graphic novels. This volume covers a diverse range of texts and types of books and offers tools and procedures for interpreting visual images to enhance the understandings of researchers, teachers, and students as they engage with the visual culture that fills our world. These methods are significant not only to becoming a critical reader of literature but to also becoming a critical reader of visual images in everyday life.

Book Synopsis The Influences That Moulded Him: People And Books by : Zacharias Tanee Fomum
Download or read book The Influences That Moulded Him: People And Books written by Zacharias Tanee Fomum and published by ZTF Books Online. This book was released on 1901 with total page 749 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Zacharias Tanee Fomum never claimed to be a self-made man. Self-made people may end up as spiritual men, but not spiritual leaders. Spiritual leaders are a concatenation of kaleidoscopic influences. When God determines to use a man for His glory and for the advance of His kingdom, He moulds him through manifold human, angelic, spiritual and normal life influences. He finally becomes an ordinary man with an extraordinary life. "FROM HIS LIPS: THE INFLUENCES THAT MOULDED HIM" delves into the plethora of influences that moulded Him into the spiritual leader of his generation. From among his own people, he was influenced by his own family, parents, siblings, teachers, university lecturers and colleagues. He was influenced constructively by people across the board from every culture. From the Western World, there were such influential figures in his life like Professor Landor, John Wesley, Charles Finney and Charles Spurgeon, just to name a few. Watchman Nee from the Oriental World was like a spiritual father and main influence to him. He read many of his books from cover to cover on his knees. African and academic influences such as Professor Sundengam, Ruth Sengat Kouo and Bishop Festo Kivengere, among a host of others, made him a citizen of heaven in the world. With such an equilibrium of diverse cultural and spiritual influences, the Lord used him to speak to every manner of culture without fear or favour and without mincing words. These human and printed page influences moulded him and, he, in turn, was used by the Lord to mould and transform the lives of multitudes around the world. Read this book and that transformation will be yours
