Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Believing Again Roger Lundin brilliantly explores the cultural consequences of the rather sudden nineteenth-century emergence of unbelief as a widespread social and intellectual option in the English-speaking world. / Lundin's narrative focuses on key poets and novelists from the past two centuries Dostoevsky, Dickinson, Melville, Auden, and more showing how they portray the modern mind and heart balancing between belief and unbelief. Lundin engages these literary luminaries through chapters on a series of vital subjects, from history and interpretation to beauty and memory. Such theologians as Barth and Balthasar also enter the fray, facing the challenge of modern unbelief with a creative brilliance that has gone largely unnoticed outside the world of faith. Lundin's Believing Again is a beautifully written, erudite examination of the drama and dynamics of belief in the modern world.

Download or read book Herman Melville's Malcolm Letter written by Hennig Cohen and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Malcolm Letter was written by Melville in 1849 on the birth of his son. This letter is one of thirty-six to be retrieved since the publication of The Letters of Herman Melville (1960) and has earned a place in the New York Public Library's Gansevoort-Lansing Collection. Addressed to Melville's brother, the letter entices critics to read it on several levels. It reveals Melville's serious consideration of his own father's influence on his upbringing as he anticipates undertaking the role of father himself. It is not a literary work, but a deeply personal outpouring distinguished by dark underpinnings barely hidden by his light-hearted tone. In a bit of dramatic irony, Melville reflects on the responsibility looming ahead of him as the reader notes the tragedy that Melville cannot possibly foresee - his son Malcolm's suicide eighteen years later. Cohen's and Yannella's careful study relives for the reader this and other events which shaped the clannish Melville family history. They also show how the author's struggle with these pressures are manifested in his writing. This volume is published in cooperation with the New York Public Library.

Download or read book Law and Morality written by David Dyzenhaus and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 1095 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its first publication in 1996, Law and Morality has filled a long-standing need for a contemporary Canadian textbook in the philosophy of law. Now in its third edition, this anthology has been thoroughly revised and updated, and includes new chapters on equality, judicial review, and terrorism and the rule of law. The volume begins with essays that explore general questions about morality and law, surveying the traditional literature on legal positivism and contemporary debates about the connection between law and morality. These essays explore the tensions between law as a protector of individual liberty and as a tool of democratic self-rule, and introduce debates about adjudication and the contribution of feminist approaches to the philosophy of law. New material on the Chinese Canadian head tax case is also featured. The second part of Law and Morality deals with philosophical questions as they apply to contemporary issues. Excerpts from judicial decisions as well as essays by practicing lawyers are included to provide theoretically informed legal analyses of the issues. Striking a balance between practical and more analytic, philosophical approaches, the volume's treatment of the philosophy of law as a branch of political philosophy enables students to understand law in its function as a social institution. Law and Morality has proved to be an essential text in both departments of philosophy and faculties of law and this latest edition brings the debates fully up to date, filling gaps in the previous editions and adding to the array of contemporary issues previously covered.

Download or read book Correspondence written by Herman Melville and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 948 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Consequently, to fill the gaps within the correspondence, 542 editorial entries are chronologically interspersed for letters both by and to Melville for which no full text has been located but for which some evidence survives. These entries, like the editorial headnotes for the known letters, flesh out the specific historical and biographical contexts for the unlocated letters. Both supply Horth's full annotations, placing circumstances, persons, and allusions, from a wide range of documentary and scholarly sources, and drawing upon family archives of both Melville and his wife, including the recently recovered portion, now in the New York Public Library, of a trove preserved by his sister Augusta." "The aim of this edition, volume fourteen in the Northwestern-Newberry Edition of The Writings of Herman Melville, is to present a text as close to the author's intention at the time of inscription as his difficult handwriting or other surviving evidence permits. On this basis, the texts earlier presented in The Letters of Herman Melville (1960), edited by Merrell R. Davis and William H. Gilman, have been revised, with differences in almost every letter in spelling and punctuation, and some forty-five differences in wording. Fifty-two newly discovered letters by Melville, more than half of which are first published here, are added to those printed in the 1960 edition. This text of Correspondence is an Approved Text of the Committee on Scholarly Editions (Modern Language Association of America)."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Reading America written by Matthew Guillen and published by Academica Press,LLC. This book was released on 2007 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a unique visual infrastructure that keeps and defines a culture? Professor Guillen discusses a culture built entirely on the visual modality and, most significantly, on that province of the visual we negotiate through the written word. Although this work analyzes features critical to the American legal tradition from its origins in Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence to recent Supreme Court decisions---substantially exploring Judge Scalia's "originalist" movement and Posner's law and economics theories---the presiding agency remains the power of the written language to provide scaffolding to American culture. Writing, it is argued, contours: our worldview, our laws, morality, science, social problems, and affects film, media, broadcasting, comics and literary criticism. The effects of our national formation and the literature that sprung up to discuss the new nation and define its people have directly led to the evolution of our idiosyncratic legal and philosophical perspectives. The title of this work purposely carries a double meaning since it proposes to deal with a "reading of" American culture through its legal and cultural legacy as well as concluding with questions revolving around a well informed American "readership" essential for the preservation of the culture as well as the continued existence of a national collective conscience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Giving advice just goes with the territory of being a father. Gathered here from private letters, notes, postcards, and memoirs is a remarkable and revealing collection of fatherly wisdom, given to and by more than a hundred of history's most distinguished dads, including: Bob Dylan, Harry Truman, Warren Buffett, John F. Kennedy, Walt Disney, Isaac Asimov, George Lucas, Charlie Chaplin, Theodore Roosevelt, and many others. Whatever their theme -- money, career, relationships, or self-development -- these thoughtful and insightful nuggets offer a rare glimpse into the minds of some of our most influential fathers. Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. Instead, we rely on advice -- bits of knowledge and experience freely proffered. A father's words can be of immense value, providing guidance, giving comfort, and strengthening the links of memory that connect one generation to the next. The Book of Fathers' Wisdom is a collection of heartfelt writings from history's most famous fathers. The topics featured include faith and community, love, the responsibilities of family, coping with illness and tragedy, work, having respect for others, keeping a sense of humor, and much more. Discover timeless observations from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on overcoming prejudice, John Butler Yeats to his son William on the price of artistic achievement, Jack London on truth, and Charles Dickens and Mahatma Gandhi on success. There are tips for more effective writing from Henry James and C. S. Lewis, plus many other witty and wise lessons from unforgettable dads. The letters, cards, and other writings gathered here make up an extraordinary collection of smart counsel and good advice. The words of biblical figures and Roman statesmen are presented alongside those of modern-day writers, entrepreneurs, and rock stars, each offering his unique, fatherly perspective on living a successful life. As relevant today as when they were first written, their words speak to us -- concerned, intelligent, and perceptive, with the warmth and empathy of a father's welcoming embrace. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1924, the Virginia State Legislature passed the Racial Integrity Act. The act banned interracial marriage down to "a single drop" of African blood. Just three months later, Curtis W. Harris was born in Dendron, Virginia. Harris was the sixth child of impoverished sharecroppers, living in a desolate outpost of the Commonwealth, but in time he would lead the fight against the Racial Integrity Act and many other racially restrictive laws. Despite being arrested multiple times and beaten, Rev. Harris would help reverse centuries of racial discrimination that began when slaves first arrived in Virginia in 1619. Author William Paul Lazarus tells the story of Harris' determination in the face of intense hostility, which took him to the forefront of America's Civil Rights Movement, arm-in-arm with the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
