This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kohlbrugge schrijft over de 13e Psalm: De rechte toepassing hiervan is wel duidelijk. Daarin wordt aangetoond dat het voor degenen die in angst, tegenspoed, wederwaardigheid, in sterke aanvechtingen en in zwarigheden van lichaam en ziel verkeren en daarbij hun hart niet tevreden kunnen stellen, nuttig is, deze Psalm te bidden. Want hier hebben zij niet alleen een voorbeeld hoe zij God hun nood bekend maken en om hulp bij Hem moeten aanhouden, maar zij vinden hier ook zulke woorden, waaruit zij troost voor hun geweten en vrede voor hun geest scheppen en krijgen mogen. Zodat dus deze Psalm niet alleen een klaaglied is, maar ook een onderwijzing en vertroosting. Hoewel de zelfvoldane geesten, de eigengerechtige mensen en die in de wereld hun genoegen hebben; dit niet kunnen verstaan of merken. Maar wie in kruis, lijden, zonde en nood verkeert en Gods hulp ondervonden heeft, of deze nog van harte in het geloof begeert, die ziet, gevoelt en ondervindt wat voor kracht en troost in deze Psalm ligt opgesloten.

Book excerpt: Kohlbrugge besluit zijn preken over Psalm 51: "Wie de Naam van Christus noemt, heeft afstand gedaan van alle ongerechtigheid, van alle leugen in de rechterhand. Wie de Heere Jezus begeert, die heeft ook de Geest van heiligmaking begeerd. 'Want zo iemand de Geest van Christus niet heeft, die komt Hem niet toe.' Het zij ons gebed: 'Vergeef ons onze zonden en geef het goede, zo zullen wij offeren de varren onzer lippen.' En wie een arm, begenadigd zondaar is, worde niet moede met David te roepen: 'Doe wel bij Sion naar Uw welbehagen!' Al moest hij ook voor een korte tijd daarom door Gods volk zelf miskend worden; wie zich voor dit volk in de bres en in de diepte werpt, wordt ten laatste voor zijn Heere een gelukkig visser van mensen. En hij ziet ook, als verhoring van zijn gebed, als loon van zijn strijd voor de gerechtigheid, de voorspoed van Jeruzalem, zijn leven lang. Amen."
Book Synopsis Beghinae in Cantu Instructae by : Pieter Mannaerts
Download or read book Beghinae in Cantu Instructae written by Pieter Mannaerts and published by Brepols Pub. This book was released on 2009 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beguinages ('begijnhoven') are unique to the Low Countries. Originally, beguine communities were disseminated over a large area comprising the northern and southern Low Countries, northern France, and parts of present-day Germany and Switzerland. The typical 'court' beguinages, however, are represented most strongly in the southern Low Countries, where a considerable number of them still exist. On account of their historical, architectural, and socio-religious value, a selection of thirteen beguinages was recognized as World Heritage by Unesco in 1998. Only recently, research has paid closer attention to the material culture of beguinage life, including literacy and book culture among beguines. Beguinae in cantu instructae focuses on another 'new' aspect of this musical culture, and for the first time describes and studies the sources of the beguines' musical life. The volume fills a void in current musicology and beguine scholarship, sketching the previously unassessed quality, quantity, stylistic diversity, and historical and geographical dissemination of the repertory. On the one hand, a number of source studies yield a deeper insight into several aspects of the preserved patrimony, which proves to be both rich and diverse. The 'story behind the music' provides the context necessary for a full understanding of the sources. On the other hand, this book aims at stimulating further exploration of the music by providing a repertory of all music manuscripts and prints that have been found thus far. Beguinae in cantu instructae will inform the general reader on new aspects of beguine life; furthermore, it will provide amateur and professional musicians with new material (from the Middle Ages to the late 18th century) and historians and musicologists with a basis for further study and research.
Book Synopsis GETROUW TOT DE DOOD, 15 PREKEN DEEL 1 by : Dr. H. F. KOHLBRUGGE
Download or read book GETROUW TOT DE DOOD, 15 PREKEN DEEL 1 written by Dr. H. F. KOHLBRUGGE and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-01-03 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: H.F. Kohlbrugge was een Gereformeerd theoloog die dikwijls wordt beschuldigd dat hij de heiligmaking - theologisch - miskende. In een preek over Lukas 7: 47 zegt hij: ... En daarbij grijpt de Heere Jezus de liefde van de zondares als middel aan om tegelijkertijd Zijn heerlijkheid en eer als Middelaar te openbaren door deze gevolgtrekking te maken: "Daarom zeg Ik u: Vergeven zijn haar zonden, die vele waren, want zij heeft veel liefgehad." Met deze woorden rechtvaardigt de Heere Jezus de zondares voor de mensen en openbaart Hij, wat Hij doen kan uit eigen machtsvolkomenheid, waarvan de Farizeeër echter niets had willen zien. Wat ik hier opmerk is niet iedereen terstond duidelijk, namelijk, dat de Heere Jezus hier de zondares rechtvaardigt uit haar werken, en dat Hij op zulk een wijze Zijn eigen machtsvolkomenheid en heerlijkheid openbaart, dat, - terwijl Hij de zondares rechtvaardigt uit haar werken, - Hij haar de vergeving der zonden, dat is de gerechtigheid voor God zonder werken, schenkt.
Book Synopsis Disasters and History by : Bas van Bavel
Download or read book Disasters and History written by Bas van Bavel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disasters and History offers the first comprehensive historical overview of hazards and disasters. Drawing on a range of case studies, including the Black Death, the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 and the Fukushima disaster, the authors examine how societies dealt with shocks and hazards and their potentially disastrous outcomes. They reveal the ways in which the consequences and outcomes of these disasters varied widely not only between societies but also within the same societies according to social groups, ethnicity and gender. They also demonstrate how studying past disasters, including earthquakes, droughts, floods and epidemics, can provide a lens through which to understand the social, economic and political functioning of past societies and reveal features of a society which may otherwise remain hidden from view. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Hazards and Disaster Risk Reduction by : Ben Wisner
Download or read book Handbook of Hazards and Disaster Risk Reduction written by Ben Wisner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 1191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook provides a comprehensive statement and reference point for hazard and disaster research, policy making, and practice in an international and multi-disciplinary context. It offers critical reviews and appraisals of current state of the art and future development of conceptual, theoretical and practical approaches as well as empirical knowledge and available tools. Organized into five inter-related sections, this Handbook contains sixty-five contributions from leading scholars. Section one situates hazards and disasters in their broad political, cultural, economic, and environmental context. Section two contains treatments of potentially damaging natural events/phenomena organized by major earth system. Section three critically reviews progress in responding to disasters including warning, relief and recovery. Section four addresses mitigation of potential loss and prevention of disasters under two sub-headings: governance, advocacy and self-help, and communication and participation. Section five ends with a concluding chapter by the editors. The engaging international contributions reflect upon the politics and policy of how we think about and practice applied hazard research and disaster risk reduction. This Handbook provides a wealth of interdisciplinary information and will appeal to students and practitioners interested in Geography, Environment Studies and Development Studies.
Book Synopsis The Cultural Life of Catastrophes and Crises by : Carsten Meiner
Download or read book The Cultural Life of Catastrophes and Crises written by Carsten Meiner and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catastrophes and crises are exceptions. They are disruptions of order. In various ways and to different degrees, they change and subvert what we regard as normal. They may occur on a personal level in the form of traumatic or stressful situations, on a social level in the form of unstable political, financial or religious situations, or on a global level in the form of environmental states of emergency. The main assumption in this book is that, in contrast to the directness of any given catastrophe and its obvious physical, economical and psychological consequences our understanding of catastrophes and crises is shaped by our cultural imagination. No matter in which eruptive and traumatizing form we encounter them, our collective repertoire of symbolic forms, historical sensibilities, modes of representation, and patterns of imagination determine how we identify, analyze and deal with catastrophes and crises.This book presents a series of articles investigating how we address and interpret catastrophes and crises in film, literature, art and theory, ranging from Voltaire’s eighteenth-century Europe, haunted by revolutions and earthquakes, to the 1994 genocide in Rwanda to the bleak, prophetic landscapes of Cormac McCarthy.
Book Synopsis Memory in Early Modern Europe, 1500-1800 by : Judith Pollmann
Download or read book Memory in Early Modern Europe, 1500-1800 written by Judith Pollmann and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-05 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For early modern Europeans, the past was a measure of most things, good and bad. For that reason it was also hotly contested, manipulated, and far too important to be left to historians alone. Memory in Early Modern Europe offers a lively and accessible introduction to the many ways in which Europeans engaged with the past and 'practised' memory in the three centuries between 1500 and 1800. From childhood memories and local customs to war traumas and peacekeeping , it analyses how Europeans tried to control, mobilize and reconfigure memories of the past. Challenging the long-standing view that memory cultures transformed around 1800, it argues for the continued relevance of early modern memory practices in modern societies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised edition features a new chapter analyzing the failed response to Hurricane Katrina.

He reveals how business and government decisions have paved the way for the greater losses of life and property.
Book Synopsis The Illustrated History of Natural Disasters by : Jan Kozák
Download or read book The Illustrated History of Natural Disasters written by Jan Kozák and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-14 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of the Earth itself, explaining the interplay of its gradual geologi- levolution, presented as a generally slow and safe process, with the sudden manifestations of natural hazards, which involve disasters that affect the environment and lead to huge material damage and human losses. The natural forces at play, whether they are violent explosions ofvolcanic eruptions or almost imperceptible deformations of subsurface rock strata, nally- sulting in devastating earthquakes, all control the existence and destiny of a certain part of the global population. The development of man’s existence down through history has depended upon his understanding of the world in which he lives, and upon his ability to turn to his own best use the materials that were there for the taking. However, he has had not only to furnish himself with food, water, building materials, and energy to protect himself against occasional natural adversities. Protecting himself from them meant comprehending their causes, and the essential core of his understanding was in recording and depicting them. This book is written for anyone interested in the Earth in general, and in natural disasters in particular, presenting a unique collection of historical illustrations of volcanic eruptions and earthquake events and their repercussions. The book represents a golden mean between sci- ti c and popular works.
Book Synopsis Local Places, Global Processes by : Peter Coates
Download or read book Local Places, Global Processes written by Peter Coates and published by Windgather Press. This book was released on 2016-02-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an age of unprecedented environmental change: global, interconnected and universal. Yet though our lives are inextricably connected to global processes, and increasingly mobile, we still live in particular places. Our perceptions of change, and what kind of change might be for good or ill, are shaped by the interaction of localised experience and the wider forces of transformation. Local Places, Global Processes examines how these relationships have been shaped in Britain over time in three ways. First, through essays addressing influential ways of understanding and debating questions of ‘the state of nature’. These are complemented by case studies on conservation, landscape change and management, and how perceptions of environmental change have emerged or been discarded over time. Chapters also draw on a series of site-based workshops that brought together historians, landscape managers and artists to discuss and reflect on particular sites: Wicken Fen in Cambridgeshire, owned by the National Trust and the first British nature reserve; the Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Somerset, England’s first AONB and a landscape enriched by Romantic association; and the landscape of Kielder Water and Forest, a land of superlatives in Northumberland in north-eastern England – the largest planted forest and artificial lake in northern Europe. The multi-disciplinary approach draws together the exchanges, artworks and writing assembled at these workshops and afterwards. This opens up how being in a place, and engaging with ideas attached to it, shape perceptions of the environment. It provides resources with which landscape managers can think about their tasks and engage various publics in discussion about future environments in light of these histories of place. Rather than a history of these three places, this is history written from them.
Book Synopsis Disaster Studies by : Janki Andharia
Download or read book Disaster Studies written by Janki Andharia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers several dimensions of disaster studies as an emerging discipline. It is the inaugural book in the series ‘Disaster Studies and Management’ and deals with questions such as “Is disaster management a field of practice, a profession, or simply a new area of study?” Exploring intersectionalities, the book also examines areas of research that could help enhance the discourse on disaster management from policy and practice perspectives, revisiting conventional event-centric approaches, which are the basis for most writings on the subject. Several case studies and comparative analyses reflect a critical reading of research and practice concerning disasters and their management. The book offers valuable insights into various subjects including the challenge of establishing inter- and multi-disciplinary teams within the academia involved in disaster studies, and sociological and anthropological readings of post-disaster memoryscapes. Each of the contributors has an enduring interest in disaster studies, thus enriching the book immensely. This book will be of interest to all the students and scholars of disaster studies and disaster management, as well as to practitioners and policymakers.

Book Synopsis Linking Destinies by : Peter Boomgaard
Download or read book Linking Destinies written by Peter Boomgaard and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade flows, cities and kinship relations can all be seen as elements of complex networks. In this collection of essays, all of which deal with Asia, we argue that there are good reasons to envisage them as various dimensions of the same networks. Nevertheless, it is fairly rare to find trade, cities and kinship relations as intimately linked as we have portrayed them in this volume, because they are usually classified within different sub-disciplines of history, whose practitioners are all too often not inclined to talk to people outside their own field. The Australian born historian Heather Sutherland, who recently retired from the VU university in Amsterdam, is an exception in this respect because most of her work gravitates towards an approach which aims to integrate this trinity of topics. This collection of essays, written by a number of her students and close colleagues, has taken its cue from her approach. It is not the case that all the contributions deal with all three topics but they as a collective demonstrate how flows of trade, cities—both as urban centres and nodes in wider networks—and kinship relations hang together, and how the study of one topic opens new vistas on the other two, revealing causal links that otherwise would have remained hidden. Thus, the essays in this collective volume support the idea that trade, towns and kin—although often dealt with quite separately—can be viewed as various aspects of the same networks, connecting people, places and commodities.
