Download or read book The Painted Word written by Phil Cousineau and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To untangle the knot of interlocking meanings of these painted words, logophile and mythologist Phil Cousineau begins each fascinating word entry with his own brief definition. He then fills it in with a tint of etymology and a smattering of quotes that show how the word is used, ending with a list of companion words. The words themselves range from commonplace — like biscuit, a twice-baked cake for Roman soldiers — to loanwords including chaparral, from the Basque shepherds who came to the American West; words from myths, such as hector; metamorphosis words, like silly, which evolved holy to goofy in a mere thousand years; and words well worthy of revival, such as carrytale, a wandering storyteller. Whether old-fangled or brand new, all the words included in The Painted Word possess an ineffable quality that makes them luminous.

Download or read book Hesychasm and Art written by Anita Strezova and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Although many of the iconographic traditions in Byzantine art formed in the early centuries of Christianity, they were not petrified within a time warp. Subtle changes and refinements in Byzantine theology did find reflection in changes to the iconographic and stylistic conventions of Byzantine art. This is a brilliant and innovative book in which Dr Anita Strezova argues that a religious movement called Hesychasm, especially as espoused by the great Athonite monk St Gregory Palamas, had a profound impact on the iconography and style of Byzantine art, including that of the Slav diaspora, of the late Byzantine period. While many have been attracted to speculate on such a connection, none until now has embarked on proving such a nexus. The main stumbling blocks have included the need for a comprehensive knowledge of Byzantine theology; a training in art history, especially iconological, semiotic and formalist methodologies; extensive fieldwork in Macedonia, Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, Turkey and Russia, and a working knowledge of Greek, Old Church Slavonic, Macedonian, Russian, Serbian, Latin as well as several modern European languages, French, German, Russian and Italian. These are some of the skills which Dr Strezova has brought to her topic.” Professor Sasha Grishin AM, FAHA Adjunct Professor of Art History School of Literature, Languages and Linguistics The Australian National University

Book excerpt: Poetry can give the readers a chance to make better choices in their lives. Hidden Fields prepares them to examine their self, religion, and philosophy by the spirit of poetry. Charles Ford wants to share his many life experiences with readers, and invite them into his home by his every thought, word, and action. So they may know him, and discover something special and unique about themselves. He wrote poems ¿for¿ people throughout history, rather than ¿to¿ them. Poems offer ¿for¿ people, even ¿for¿ readers who know little poetry. All are unique alive or dead. In Hidden Fields, Charles brings to readers his experiences and his individuations, which he expresses wonderfully by his ever-deepening imagination and understanding that he has about poetry. These poems about self embodied metaphysics of his faith, hope, and love. Charles writes poems about religion and philosophy, they are also in the vein of metaphysics. These poems reveal his profound spiritual growth that he achieved in his life. He experienced a religious conversion at three. He shares this experience and many others with readers; so they may know he writes poems from his heart by inspiration and love he has for God and man.
