Download or read book Mahomet written by Philippe Aziz and published by . This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mahomet ne fut pas seulement un envoyé de Dieu chargé d'appeler les Arabes à l'Islam, il fut aussi un stratège, un législateur, un gestionnaire, un guerrier, et surtout un chef d'Etat. A cet homme dont l'action et l'enseignement ont bouleversé l'histoire de l'humanité, on a consacré d'inombrables biographies. Alors pourquoi une de plus ? En vérité, la plupart relèvent davantage de l'hagiographie que de l'histoire : les " miracles " et les légendes ont, au fil des siècles, enseveli le Prophète sous un fatras d'approximations hâtives, tendancieuses et même contraires à la vérité de ce personnage exemplaire. Or des travaux archologiques et biographiques récents ont apporté des éléments nouveaux sur la vie des arabes au temps du Prophète. La Mecque était une véritable métropole financière et marchande. L'image- traditionnelle- de Bédouins faméliques, errant dans une Arabie déserte et arrachés à leur dénuement grâce à l'Islam, est une absurdité historique : l'Islam n'est pas né dans le désert, il est issu d'un milieu urbain hiérarchisé. En outre l'auteur a consulté et traduit lui-même les sources essentielles de la geste prophétique - le Coran et les récits des traditionnistes, premiers biographes du Prophète. Le Prophète est loin d'être cette figure hiératique véhiculée par les manuels religieux musulmans. C'est un homme habité de passions contradictoires, qui a subi des victoires et des défaites, qui a aimé la vie, les femmes et les parfums, qui comme tout homme politique a louvoyé pour asseoir son pouvoir et n'a jamais cessé de rappeler à ses premiers fidèles qu'il était " un homme comme les autres ". En ce sens, le Prophète est d'une formidable modernité.

Book Synopsis Inside Islam by : Anne-Marie Delcambre
Download or read book Inside Islam written by Anne-Marie Delcambre and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In direct, clear language, Anne-Marie Delcambre shows that many of the prohibitions and constraints as well as the problems and difficulties of the Muslim religion in the world today are not simply fundamentalist aberrations but, on the contrary, derive directly from the very essence of Islam itself. Many of the elements of these proscriptions, interdictions, and commands are, in fact, to be found in the Qur'an and in authentic Muslim tradition. This is, indeed, the case in such matters as the discriminatory status assigned to Jews and Christians, the call to Holy War (Jihad) and even to murder, the position of women, the uncritical and anti-historical approach to the fundamental texts of Islam, the place of the Prophet, etc."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis Vie de Mahomet by : Virgil Gheorghiu
Download or read book Vie de Mahomet written by Virgil Gheorghiu and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quelque cent ans à peine après la reddition de l'Empire romain, l'avènement de Mahomet au VIe siècle de notre ère, aura un retentissement profond dans l'histoire de l'humanité. De l'Andalousie aux portes de Vienne, la marche de l'Islam, portée par l'élan de la foi nouvelle, a pénétré l'Europe au cours des siècles. Aujourd'hui, forte de près de huit cents millions d'âmes, cette grande religion monothéiste compte ses adeptes par centaines de milliers, qui pratiquent au cœur des cités occidentales. Virgil Gheorghiu, homme d'église roumain, était désigné pour écrire une histoire de Mahomet le Prophète. Longtemps sous la férule des Ottomans, les Roumains se souviennent de l'empreinte de l'Islam dans leur histoire. Homme de religion et esprit éclairé, libre de préjugés, Mgr Gheorghiu a su percevoir la lumière contenue dans l'enseignement islamique et la foi qui le conduit. On suivra, dans ces pages extrêmement vivantes et souvent émouvantes, l'éveil et la marche d'un des grands mouvements de l'histoire des Hommes. Cette réalité, qui a su céder dans notre actualité à une certaine confusion dans son interprétation, il ne nous est plus permis de l'ignorer si nous voulons mieux comprendre cette communauté d'hommes parmi laquelle nous vivons.

Book Synopsis Montaigne and Bayle by : Craig B. Brush
Download or read book Montaigne and Bayle written by Craig B. Brush and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is traditional in the literature on Pierre Bayle to make some refer ene e to iVlontaigne as one of the masters of skepticism in whose tracks he follows, albeit hardly so eloselyas Charron had. Time and again critics feel the need to mention Montaigne and Bayle in the same context, sometimes to contrast their brands of Pyrrhonism, more often to explain similarities in their ideas and methods, which have frequent ly been regarded as important steps in the gradual evolution of un Christian, even anti-Christian, thought. Their names were already associated during Bayle's life, for example, in the mediocre work by Dom Alexis Gaudin, La Distinction et la Nature du Bien et du MaI, Traite ou l'on combat l'erreur des Manicheens, les sentimens de Jvfontaigne & de Charron, & ceux de J. Vfonsieur Bayle. In the nineteen th century, the author of the Dictionnaire historique et critique wa~ generally elassified as a skeptic; and his name was inevi tably linked with the essayist's. In his Port-Royal, Sainte-Beuve pictured Bayle as one of the avowed skeptics in Montaigne's funeral cortege and spoke of both men as "d'autant pIus fourbes qu'ils ne le sont pas toujours." His later works show that he revised his opinion on each somewhat, l but in this he was unusual for his century.
Book Synopsis The Armenian Gospel of the Infancy by :
Download or read book The Armenian Gospel of the Infancy written by and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-07-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The various versions of the Infancy Gospels illustrate how stories about the Virgin and Child lend themselves to be told and retold - much like the stories in the canonical Gospels. This first translation of the full text of the Armenian Gospel of the Infancy, itself derived from a sixth-century Syriac text that no longer exists, provides two variants of the famous narrative and several recensions or ancient editions. Stories about Jesus, many of them unique to this gospel, are included to show how he exercised his sovereign and divine will even as a child. This edition also contains three early Armenian versions of the Protevangelium of James, which with other ancient sources dependent on it (like the Infancy Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew) constitute the basic tradition in the formation of the later Infancy Gospels. These writings are our earliest sources about the parents of the Virgin Mary (Joachim and Anne) and her miraculous birth. They also form the basis for the dogma of her Immaculate Conception and perpetual virginity after the birth of Jesus, and lay the ground for certain of the Marian feasts celebrated since the fourth century. Terian's engaging introduction and annotation of the texts place this rare document clearly in its cultural and historical context and provide extensive references to the surrounding textual tradition. These extraordinary stories will appeal to all with an interest in the early church.

Book Synopsis The Calendar in Revolutionary France by : Sanja Perovic
Download or read book The Calendar in Revolutionary France written by Sanja Perovic and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most unusual decisions of the leaders of the French Revolution - and one that had immense practical as well as symbolic impact - was to abandon customarily-accepted ways of calculating date and time to create a Revolutionary calendar. The experiment lasted from 1793 to 1805, and prompted all sorts of questions about the nature of time, ways of measuring it and its relationship to individual, community, communication and creative life. This study traces the course of the Revolutionary Calendar, from its cultural origins to its decline and fall. Tracing the parallel stories of the calendar and the literary genius of its creator, Sylvain Maréchal, from the Enlightenment to the Napoleonic era, Sanja Perovic reconsiders the status of the French Revolution as the purported 'origin' of modernity, the modern experience of time, and the relationship between the imagination and political action.

Book Synopsis The Mark of the Sacred by : Jean-Pierre Dupuy
Download or read book The Mark of the Sacred written by Jean-Pierre Dupuy and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-30 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of religion and violence “forces us to reexamine some of our most cherished self-images of modern liberal democratic societies” (Charles Taylor). Jean-Pierre Dupuy, prophet of what he calls “enlightened doomsaying,” has long warned that modern society is on a path to self-destruction. In this book, he pleads for a subversion of this crisis from within, arguing that it is our lopsided view of religion and reason that has set us on this course. In denial of our sacred origins and hubristically convinced of the powers of human reason, we cease to know our own limits: our disenchanted world leaves us defenseless against a headlong rush into the abyss of global warming, nuclear holocaust, and the other catastrophes that loom on our horizon. Reviving the religious anthropology of Max Weber, Emile Durkheim, and Marcel Mauss and in dialogue with the work of René Girard, Dupuy shows that we must remember the world’s sacredness in order to keep human violence in check. A metaphysical and theological detective, he tracks the sacred in the very fields where human reason considers itself most free from everything it judges irrational: science, technology, economics, political and strategic thought. In making such claims, The Mark of the Sacred takes on religion bashers, secularists, and fundamentalists at once. Written by one of the deepest and most versatile thinkers of our time, it militates for a world where reason is no longer an enemy of faith. “The Mark of the Sacred is one of those rare books . . . which, in an enlightened well-organized state, should be printed and freely distributed in all schools!” —Slavoj Žižek
Book Synopsis The Pensées(Illustrated Edition) by : Blaise Pascal
Download or read book The Pensées(Illustrated Edition) written by Blaise Pascal and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-09 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blaise Pascal, the precociously brilliant contemporary of Descartes, was a gifted mathematician and physicist, but it is his unfinished apologia for the Christian religion upon which his reputation now rests. The Penseés is a collection of philosohical fragments, notes and essays in which Pascal explores the contradictions of human nature in pscyhological, social, metaphysical and - above all - theological terms. Mankind emerges from Pascal's analysis as a wretched and desolate creature within an impersonal universe, but who can be transformed through faith in God's grace.
