Book Synopsis The Unbroken Thread by : Sohrab Ahmari
Download or read book The Unbroken Thread written by Sohrab Ahmari and published by Convergent Books. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We’ve pursued and achieved the modern dream of defining ourselves—but at what cost? An influential columnist and editor makes a compelling case for seeking the inherited traditions and ideals that give our lives meaning. “Ahmari’s tour de force makes tradition astonishingly vivid and relevant for the here and now.”—Rod Dreher, bestselling author of Live Not by Lies and The Benedict Option As a young father and a self-proclaimed “radically assimilated immigrant,” opinion editor Sohrab Ahmari realized that when it comes to shaping his young son’s moral fiber, today’s America is woefully lacking. For millennia, the world’s great ethical and religious traditions have taught that true happiness lies in pursuing virtue and accepting limits. But now, unbound from these stubborn traditions, we are free to choose whichever way of life we think is most optimal—or, more often than not, merely the easiest. All that remains are the fickle desires that a wealthy, technologically advanced society is equipped to fulfill. The result is a society riven by deep conflict and individual lives that, for all their apparent freedom, are marked by alienation and stark unhappiness. In response to this crisis, Ahmari offers twelve questions for us to grapple with—twelve timeless, fundamental queries that challenge our modern certainties. Among them: Is God reasonable? What is freedom for? What do we owe our parents, our bodies, one another? Exploring each question through the lives and ideas of great thinkers, from Saint Augustine to Howard Thurman and from Abraham Joshua Heschel to Andrea Dworkin, Ahmari invites us to examine the hidden assumptions that drive our behavior and, in doing so, to live more humanely in a world that has lost its way.
Book Synopsis Meanings of Old Age and Aging in the Tradition of India by : Yashwant Pathak
Download or read book Meanings of Old Age and Aging in the Tradition of India written by Yashwant Pathak and published by Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh USA. This book was released on 2006 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful aging requires not only internal accommodation to one's own system of needs but also reasonable conformity to the demands of one's community. Like the Faustian ancient Indian aspired to have the full experience of the most diverse possibilities of human life. The Buddha saw in this thirst the basic cause of suffering. But Hindus did not dismiss this basic human instinct so easily. They sought to sample every aspect of human experience (albeit with restraint imposed by dharma and limited to a particular stage of life), which allows humans to exhaust them by plumbing their depths fully.
Book Synopsis The Immediacy of Mystical Experience in the European Tradition by : Miklós Vassányi
Download or read book The Immediacy of Mystical Experience in the European Tradition written by Miklós Vassányi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-19 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines mystical experiences as portrayed in various ways by “authors” such as philosophers, mystics, psychoanalysts, writers, and peasant women. These “mystical authors” have, throughout the ages, attempted to convey the unsayable through writings, paintings, or oral stories. The immediate experience of God is the primary source and ultimate goal of these mystical expressions. This experience is essentially ineffable, yet all mystical authors, either consciously or unconsciously, feel an urge to convey what they have undergone in the moments of rapture. At the same time they are in the role of intermediaries: the goal of their self-expression – either written, painted or oral – is to make others somehow understand or feel what they have experienced, and to lead others toward the spiritual goal of human life. This volume studies the mystical experiences and the way they have been described or portrayed in West-European culture, from Antiquity to the present, from an interdisciplinary perspective, and approaches the concept of “immediate experience” in various ways.
Book Synopsis Spirituality in Nursing: from Traditional to New Age by : Barbara Stevens Barnum
Download or read book Spirituality in Nursing: from Traditional to New Age written by Barbara Stevens Barnum and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2006 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoroughly updated, this award-winning book looks at spirituality and nursing from many perspectives: theoretical, historical, religious, psychological, physiological. In her thoughtful exploration of the reemergence of spirituality as an important factor in nursing practice, Barnum traces nursing's involvement with spirituality from its historical ties with religion to the current interest in New Age and alternative health methods. Nursing theories involving spirituality, such as those presented by Dossey, Newman, and Watson are examined and nursing trends are placed in the larger context of trends in society and other disciplines, including psychology, physics, and philosophy. Information on techniques and therapies for incorporating spirituality into patient care is included in this edition.

Book Synopsis Ezra Pound's Early Verse and Lyric Tradition by : Robert Stark
Download or read book Ezra Pound's Early Verse and Lyric Tradition written by Robert Stark and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traces the lyricism and musicality in Pound's early verse through to his radical Modernist style. Robert Stark argues that Pound learned how to write poetry more or less as if it was a foreign tongue - or poetic 'jargon' - with a unique lexicon, grammar, and even morphology, and that his most innovative poetry is the result of his ambivalent orientation towards different European literary traditions.Stark contextualizes Pound's poetic craft by examining his relationship to the Mediaeval and Classical originators of the methods he employs and by considering the practice and criticism of his immediate Victorian and Romantic predecessors. He explores the influence of poets such as Francois Villon, Guido Cavalcanti, Robert Burns, Robert Browning, Algernon Charles Swinburne and Walt Whitman on Pound's lyrical style. For Stark, Pound's multi-vocalism arises out of his interest in dialect and the acoustic qualities of speech which leads to a 'modern' barbarous language marked by polysemy and heterogeneity.
