Book Synopsis Imagining the Kingdom by : James K. A. Smith
Download or read book Imagining the Kingdom written by James K. A. Smith and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2013 Word Guild Award (Academic) How does worship work? How exactly does liturgical formation shape us? What are the dynamics of such transformation? In the second of James K. A. Smith's three-volume theology of culture, the author expands and deepens the analysis of cultural liturgies and Christian worship he developed in his well-received Desiring the Kingdom. He helps us understand and appreciate the bodily basis of habit formation and how liturgical formation--both "secular" and Christian--affects our fundamental orientation to the world. Worship "works" by leveraging our bodies to transform our imagination, and it does this through stories we understand on a register that is closer to body than mind. This has critical implications for how we think about Christian formation. Professors and students will welcome this work as will pastors, worship leaders, and Christian educators. The book includes analyses of popular films, novels, and other cultural phenomena, such as The King's Speech, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest, and Facebook.

Book Synopsis Contrast Between the Earthly Kingdom and the Heavenly Kingdom by : Arthur Chingwaru
Download or read book Contrast Between the Earthly Kingdom and the Heavenly Kingdom written by Arthur Chingwaru and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is meant to guide us in our daily lives, to understand that instead of looking for something to come from somewhere, it is us who have to make it happen. Instead of looking for good thing to happen, start it by being good yourself then other things will be following your example. We have to realize that what we are asking for is not something tangible but something spiritual, so we have to transform ourselves to conform to the things that are before us. It takes us time to understand that we are dealing with two different things, meaning that some have geographical boundaries and things that do not have geographical boundaries. This book is leading us to the spiritual world, instead of trying to go against the realities it will be wise to submit ourselves and then generous providence may guide us into the spiritual realms. The coming of the Son of Man meant that the kingdom had come and will always be here. When a man was made in the image of God it meant that spiritually we have to be like Him, if He is spirit that mean we have to be like Him spiritually. Sometimes we will try to look at it narrowly instead of looking at it broadly.
Book Synopsis Symphonies of Creation by : Oskar Kürten
Download or read book Symphonies of Creation written by Oskar Kürten and published by Temple Lodge Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘No true understanding of the world is possible without an understanding of the elementary kingdoms.’ – Oskar Kürten A hidden gem for students of Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual-scientific research, Symphonies of Creation offers a breathtaking overview of the physical and metaphysical development of the world and humanity. In describing the elementary kingdoms, Kürten elucidates the exalted spiritual realms out of which all creation has arisen. These are the formative forces that provide successive life-waves of being with the subtle and physical forms through which their evolution becomes possible. He traces the beginnings of creation – an unformed ‘thought seed’ in the elementary kingdoms that is elaborated by hierarchical beings at all levels, through the planes of the spiritual, soul and physical worlds – to the manifold and evolving aspects of the human being. What emerges is a picture of astonishing complexity and beauty in which all spiritual beings connected with the earth, from the highest to the lowest, work together in symphonic harmony. Rudolf Steiner spoke on many occasions and in different places of these elementary kingdoms and the multiple processes that take place within them. Kürten has sought out these references, meditated on their content and re-presents it here in an inwardly coherent synthesis. Even for those who have been studying anthroposophy for decades, this book can offer startlingly fresh insights. Symphonies of Creation is the life’s work of a man who, due to severe deafness, led a retiring existence. His inner work, however, was full of life – the results of which are presented in this inspiring study.

Book Synopsis Why Civil Resistance Works by : Erica Chenoweth
Download or read book Why Civil Resistance Works written by Erica Chenoweth and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-09 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, from 1900 to 2006, campaigns of nonviolent resistance were more than twice as effective as their violent counterparts in achieving their stated goals. By attracting impressive support from citizens, whose activism takes the form of protests, boycotts, civil disobedience, and other forms of nonviolent noncooperation, these efforts help separate regimes from their main sources of power and produce remarkable results, even in Iran, Burma, the Philippines, and the Palestinian Territories. Combining statistical analysis with case studies of specific countries and territories, Erica Chenoweth and Maria J. Stephan detail the factors enabling such campaigns to succeed and, sometimes, causing them to fail. They find that nonviolent resistance presents fewer obstacles to moral and physical involvement and commitment, and that higher levels of participation contribute to enhanced resilience, greater opportunities for tactical innovation and civic disruption (and therefore less incentive for a regime to maintain its status quo), and shifts in loyalty among opponents' erstwhile supporters, including members of the military establishment. Chenoweth and Stephan conclude that successful nonviolent resistance ushers in more durable and internally peaceful democracies, which are less likely to regress into civil war. Presenting a rich, evidentiary argument, they originally and systematically compare violent and nonviolent outcomes in different historical periods and geographical contexts, debunking the myth that violence occurs because of structural and environmental factors and that it is necessary to achieve certain political goals. Instead, the authors discover, violent insurgency is rarely justifiable on strategic grounds.

Book Synopsis Modernism and Copyright by : Paul K. Saint-Amour
Download or read book Modernism and Copyright written by Paul K. Saint-Amour and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-09 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How was modernism shaped, from its beginning, by intellectual property law? What role did the law's imperial and transatlantic asymmetries play in modernism's dissemination? How did various modernists exploit, reform, anoint, and evade copyright? And how is the study of modernism today being affected by expanding copyright regimes? Modernism and Copyright is the first book to take up these questions. A truly multi-disciplinary study, it brings together essays by scholars of literature, theater, cinema, music, and law as well as by practicing lawyers and caretakers of modernist literary estates. Its contributors' methods are as diverse as the works they discuss: Ezra Pound's copyright statute and Charlie Parker's bebop compositions feature here, as do early Chaplin films, EverQuest, and the Madison Avenue memo. As our portrait of modernism expands and fragments, Modernism and Copyright locates works such as these on one of the few landscapes they all clearly share: the uneven terrain of intellectual property law.
