Book Synopsis A Womanist Reading of Hebrew Bible Narratives as the Politics of Belonging from an Outsider Within by : Vanessa Lovelace
Download or read book A Womanist Reading of Hebrew Bible Narratives as the Politics of Belonging from an Outsider Within written by Vanessa Lovelace and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-05-29 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Declaration of Independence of 1776 decreed that all men were created equal and were endowed by their Creator with “certain unalienable Rights.” Yet, U.S.-born free and enslaved Black people were not recognized as citizens with “equal protections under the law” until the passage of the Fourteenth Amendment. Even then, White supremacists impeded the equal rights of Black people as citizens due to their beliefs in the inferiority of Black people and that America was a nation for White people. White supremacists turned to biblical passages to lend divine justification for their views. A Womanist Reading of Hebrew Bible Narratives as the Politics of Belonging from an Outsider Within analyzes select biblical narratives, including Noah’s curse in Genesis 9; Sarah and Hagar in Genesis 16 and 21; Mother in Israel in Judges 5; and Jezebel, Phoenician Princess and Queen of Israel in 1 and 2 Kings. This analysis demonstrates how these narratives were first used by ancient biblical writers to include some and exclude others as members of the nation of Israel and then appropriated by White supremacists in the antebellum era and the early twentieth century to do the same in America. The book analyzes the simultaneously intersecting and interconnecting dynamics among race, gender, class, and sexuality and biblical narratives to construct boundaries between “us versus them,” particularly the politicization of motherhood to deny certain groups’ inclusion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading Prophetic Voice Reveals New Insight on Defeating an Ancient Evil According to leading prophetic voice Jennifer LeClaire, the subversive Jezebel spirit continues to deceive many. She shows, with keen biblical insight, that Jezebel does much more than most believers thought--and that it's time to expose the deceit and defeat the spirit's insidious work. By pulling back the curtain on this seducing principality, LeClaire picks up where other books on Jezebel leave off. She demonstrates biblically not only that the Jezebel spirit uses control as a weapon but that it is a mastermind of immorality and outright idolatry. She also gives spiritual warriors the real-world strategies needed for defeating this dark spirit in the lives of God's people.

The first work of its kind, this encyclopedia approaches African American literature from a Women's Studies perspective. While Yolanda Williams Page's Encyclopedia of African American Women Writers provides biographical entries on more than 150 literary figures, this book is much broader in scope.

Download or read book Endgame written by Chad McCoy and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2005-03-01 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploding onto the eschatalogical scene with a deafening roar, Endgame shatters the status quo with respect to endtime Bible prophecy, detonating centuries' worth of assumption and subjective "fact." By providing the Bible space to interpret itself, the key which unlocks the mysteries of Revelation is revealed to have been within the possession of mankind all along, hidden for millennia in "plain sight." Although Man has long preferred to lean upon his own understanding, the logic of mortals is not equal to the task of assembling the pieces of a Divinely-constructed image, a fact which accounts for the numerous conflicting views and failed predictions of establishment experts. The true account has been set down in God's own hand, scattered throughout His Word which the prophets were inspired to utter, and which holy men of old were moved to record. Includes a bonus Tribulation Survival Guide

Book Synopsis From Panem to the Pandemic: An Introduction to Cultural Studies by : Michael Butter
Download or read book From Panem to the Pandemic: An Introduction to Cultural Studies written by Michael Butter and published by Narr Francke Attempto Verlag. This book was released on 2023-10-30 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, virtually all BA programs in English at German universities place a strong focus on Cultural Studies. However, textbooks that introduce first-year students to the subject are rare, and the few existing ones are too complicated or not comprehensive enough. By contrast, this textbook introduces the key theories and concepts of Cultural Studies systematically and thoroughly. It puts particular emphasis on their application, aiming to enable students to do their own analyses of cultural artefacts and practices. The author draws on many examples, mostly taken from American culture, but in each chapter, he applies the ideas introduced to The Hunger Games franchise and the coronavirus pandemic to show how different theories can lead to very different interpretations of the same phenomenon. Each chapter ends with exercises that allow students to apply what they have learned.
