Book Synopsis Divine Names on the Spot by : Fabio Porzia
Download or read book Divine Names on the Spot written by Fabio Porzia and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Ancient Greek and Semitic languages resorted to a large range of words to name the divine. Gods and goddesses were called by a variety of names and combinations of onomastic attributes. This broad lexicon of names is characterised by plurality and a tendency to build on different sequences of names; therefore, the Mapping Ancient Polytheisms project focuses on the process of naming the divine in order to better understand the ancient divine in terms of a plurality in the making. A fundamental rule for reading ancient divine names is to grasp them in their context - time and place, a ritual, the form of the discourse, a cultural milieu...: a deity is usually named according to a specific situation. From Artemis Eulochia to al-Lat, al-'Uzza and Manat, from Melqart to "my rock" in the biblical book of Psalms, this volume journeys between the sanctuary on Mount Gerizim and late antique magical practices, revisiting rituals, hymnic poetry, oaths of orators and philosophical prayers. While targeting different names in different contexts, the contributors draft theoretical propositions towards a dynamic approach of naming the divine in antiquity.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Staging Holiness. The Case of Hospitaller Rhodes (ca. 1309-1522) Sofia Zoitou offers a study of the history of relic collections, devotional rituals and sites invested with special meaning in Rhodes, during a time when the island became one of the most frequented ports of call for ships carrying pilgrims from Venice to the Holy Land. Scrutinizing late medieval travel reports by pilgrims from all over Europe along with extant historical, archaeological, visual and material evidence, Sofia Zoitou traces the various forms of the Rhodian cultic sites' evolution and perception, ultimately considered as an overall artistic strategy for the staging of the sacred"--

Following high losses in Russia, the need for replacement troops was very great. As a consequence, Bosnians, Arabs, Asians, Trans-Caucasians and Indian soldiers were all enlisted in the Wehrmacht and even in the Waffen-SS. More than a million such men served.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One evening some friends were gathered at the home of one of our most celebrated writers. Having dined sumptuously, they were discussing murder—apropos of what, I no longer remember probably apropos of nothing. Only men were present: moralists, poets, philosophers and doctors—thus everyone could speak freely, according to his whim, his hobby or his idiosyncrasies, without fear of suddenly seeing that expression of horror and fear which the least startling idea traces upon the horrified face of a notary. I—say notary, much as I might have said lawyer or porter, not disdainfully, of course, but in order to define the average French mind. With a calmness of spirit as perfect as though he were expressing an opinion upon the merits of the cigar he was smoking, a member of the Academy of Moral and Political Sciences said: “Really—I honestly believe that murder is the greatest human preoccupation, and that all our acts stem from it... “ We awaited the pronouncement of an involved theory, but he remained silent. “Absolutely!” said a Darwinian scientist, “and, my friend, you are voicing one of those eternal truths such as the legendary Monsieur de La Palisse discovered every day: since murder is the very bedrock of our social institutions, and consequently the most imperious necessity of civilized life. If it no longer existed, there would be no governments of any kind, by virtue of the admirable fact that crime in general and murder in particular are not only their excuse, but their only reason for being. We should then live in complete anarchy, which is inconceivable. So, instead of seeking to eliminate murder, it is imperative that it be cultivated with intelligence and perseverance. I know no better culture medium than law.” Someone protested. “Here, here!” asked the savant, “aren't we alone, and speaking frankly?” “Please!” said the host, “let us profit thoroughly by the only occasion when we are free to express our personal ideas, for both I, in my books, and you in your turn, may present only lies to the public.” The scientist settled himself once more among the cushions of his armchair, stretched his legs, which were numb from being crossed too long and, his head thrown back, his arms hanging and his stomach soothed by good digestion, puffed smoke−rings at the ceiling: “Besides,” he continued, “murder is largely self−propagating. Actually, it is not the result of this or that passion, nor is it a pathological form of degeneracy. It is a vital instinct which is in us all—which is in all organized beings and dominates them, just as the genetic instinct. And most of the time it is especially true that these two instincts fuse so well, and are so totally interchangeable, that in some way or other they form a single and identical instinct, so that we no longer may tell which of the two urges us to give life, and which to take it—which is murder, and which love. I have been the confidant of an honorable assassin who killed women, not to rob them, but to ravish them. His trick was to manage things so that his sexual climax coincided exactly with the death−spasm of the woman: 'At those moments,' he told me, 'I imagined I was a God, creating a world!”

Book Synopsis Juifs et chrétiens en Arabie aux Ve et VIe siècles by : Joëlle Beaucamp
Download or read book Juifs et chrétiens en Arabie aux Ve et VIe siècles written by Joëlle Beaucamp and published by ACHCByz. This book was released on 2010 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans les annees 520 de l'ere chretienne, l'Arabie meridionale fut le theatre d'un evenement exceptionnel dans l'histoire universelle: le massacre d'une population chretienne par un souverain juif. Depuis pres de 150 ans, les rois de Himyar (le Yemen actuel et une grande partie de l'Arabie seoudite) accordaient leur soutien au judaisme. Les Ethiopiens du royaume d'Aksum avaient reussi, vers le debut du VIe siecle, a faire de Himyar un royaume tributaire. Mais en 523, le prince qu'ils avaient peut-etre installe sur le trone se rebella. Il entreprit d'eliminer les chretiens de son royaume qu'il estimait allies aux Aksumites. L'episode le plus celebre de cette entreprise - le massacre des chretiens de la grande oasis de Najran (en Arabie seoudite aujourd'hui, pres de la frontiere du Yemen) - est connu par une multitude de sources; inscriptions sudarabiques et ethiopiennes, recits syriaques, textes grecs historiques ou hagiographiques. La plus importante de ces sources, le Martyre d'Arethas, deja publie dans les Monographies, existe aussi dans de nombreuses versions orientales, en armenien, en georgien, en arabe et en ethiopien. Le colloque de novembre 2008 dont les actes sont publies ici visait a comprendre le contexte dans lequel ces ecrits ont ete produits et a demeler leurs rapports: les versions arabes et ethiopiennes, par exemple, offrent quelque donnees absentes du grec. Le colloque a egalement permis des progres dans la comprehension des recits syriaques, qu'il s'agisse de leur auteur suppose ou des rapports entre les differentes versions d'un meme recit. Le colloque avait aussi pour but de replacer les evenements de Najran dans un contexte plus large, en etudiant la ville et son histoire, le developpement du monotheisme en Arabie du Sud et le role, tant politique que religieux, joue par l'Ethiopie, pour qui le Yemen representait une chasse gardee.

Book Synopsis The Truth Will Set Us Free by : George Jerjian
Download or read book The Truth Will Set Us Free written by George Jerjian and published by Greenleaf Book Group Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a powerful combination of a touching family story, a compelling legal argument and a visionary olive branch solution to one of history's most intractable dilemmas. This book is a catalyst to ignite dialogue between Armenians and Turks. Reconciliation can only take place when truth and truce are declared. What has happened cannot be undone, but we need not be prisoners of the past. The truth will set us -- Armenians and Turks -- free. The book shows that while the truth is not negotiable, the terms of reconciliation are. For nearly a hundred years the truth has been held hostage. In the final analysis, if Turks and Armenians cannot resolve this between themselves, no one else can. Now the truth may be rescued. Turks and Armenians need a new vision; a new vision to demolish the wall; a new vision for a new century.
