Book Synopsis Holy Hitchhiking Foreign Highways by : Vernon G. Elgin
Download or read book Holy Hitchhiking Foreign Highways written by Vernon G. Elgin and published by Author House. This book was released on 2010-04-13 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOLY HITCHIKING FOREIGN HIGHWAYS relates an odyssey on four Continents. Vernon Elgin began hitchhiking rural dirt roads in Pennsylvania when he was an adolescent. He graduated from dirt and asphalt to concrete, from Armstrong County Route 210, to Pennsylvania Route 422, to U.S. Route 66. Most of his hitchhiking conveyed him to work or college; all of it afforded him pleasure and adventure. He frequently broached religion as a topic of conversation with the driver. More often than not he received a stimulating response. He credits his education on the road for contributing to his future clergy profession.
Download or read book Hitchhiking written by Patrick Laviolette and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English-language social science book to comprehensively explore hitchhiking in the contemporary era in the West, this volume covers a lot of ground—it goes to and fro, in an echo of the modus operandi of most hitchhiking journeys. As scarification, piercings, and tattoos move from the counter-culture to popular culture, hitchhiking has remained an activity apart. Yet, with the assistance of virtual platforms and through its ever-growing memorialisation in literature and the arts, hitchhiking persists into the 21st century, despite the many social anxieties surrounding it. The themes addressed here thus include: adventure; gender; fear and trust; freedom and existential travel; road and transport infrastructures; communities of protest and resistance; civic surveillance and risk ecologies.
Book Synopsis Gods, Spirits, and Worship in the Greco-Roman World and Early Christianity by : Craig A. Evans
Download or read book Gods, Spirits, and Worship in the Greco-Roman World and Early Christianity written by Craig A. Evans and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-24 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greco-Roman religions and superstitions, and early Christianity's engagement with them, are explored in 12 unique studies. The beliefs and fears with regard to demons (or daimons), their origins, and threatening behavior are examined, both in their pagan and Judaeo-Christian contexts. These new studies look at the Greco-Roman heroic gods, how they faced death, and how James and John, the “sons of Thunder,” may well have been viewed in some circles as the equivalent of the “sons of Zeus”, Castor and Pollux. The contributors also explore Roman omens, especially as they relate to Rome's legendary founder Romulus and what light they shed on the omens that accompany the birth and death of Jesus of Nazareth. Particular focus is placed upon Paul, binding spells, women and hymns of exaltation, along with atheism in late antiquity, with special consideration of the charlatan Alexander. Finally, there is a re-visitation of the confusion, misinformation and legends surrounding the discovery of the Qumran caves, including fear of jinn. This book provides invaluable resources for precisely how early Christians interacted with different ideas and traditions around gods and spirits - both benevolent and malevolent - in the Greco-Roman world.

Book Synopsis Alpha Status by : Nathan Ikon Crumpton
Download or read book Alpha Status written by Nathan Ikon Crumpton and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-12-26 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If capitalism were a person, who would it be? Where would it live? Who, how, and what would it love? Dive into the salacious world of hedge funds, high finance, and penthouse sex dungeons. This raucous tale of a wildly successful New York fund manager and his globetrotting adventures reflects the stark new reality of contemporary uber-wealth, and the capitalist system which created it. Become enraptured with - or repulsed by - the heinously opulent world of the anonymous protagonist and his class of modern billionaires. But challenging the protagonist's high-flying escapades in finance and sexual conquest is his twin brother, a maudlin comparative literature professor and single father. With a life defined by tragedy, the brother becomes the countervailing voice of reason and social tranquility. Filled with equal parts fictitious plotline and broadly researched non-fiction sources, this book offers pointed analysis of the 21st century socio-economic landscape, and begs critical questions about how capitalism can try to reconcile its avaricious nature with a world demanding a more equitable division of resources. Enlightening yet critical. Serious yet absurd. Fictitious yet factual. This non-fiction novel provides graphic and unapologetic scrutiny from both extremes of the contemporary socio-economic spectrum.
