Book Synopsis Man in Metanoiacal Dialogue with God by : Krzysztof Leśniewski
Download or read book Man in Metanoiacal Dialogue with God written by Krzysztof Leśniewski and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2022-11-14 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a theological analysis and interpretation of the Great Canon of St Andrew of Crete. The hermeneutic method used in the monograph consists in a comprehensive examination of key Greek concepts and phrases occurring in the analysed hymn in various contexts in which they occur, and on this basis creating a theological-existential synthesis. This method is based on the search for the spiritual and existential meaning of the most important terms and thus refers to the essential assumptions of patristic allegorical exegesis. The hermeneutic analysis of the content of the Great Canon in conjunction with the contextual analysis of the vocabulary used in it was considered the most appropriate, since it is the work of St Andrew of Crete can be compared to a poetic carpet woven from phrases from the Old and New Testament, which are combined with existential confessions and spiritual indications, expressed in Eastern Orthodox hesychastic terms.

Download or read book My Father Calls Me written by Don Marr and published by . This book was released on 1999-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever want to touch God? We've all wondered about life and the existence of God. If you had a chance to ask God anything, what would you ask? In 1992, businessman Don Marr was taking dictation from what he thought were angels or spiritual beings (A Gateway To Higher Consciousness), when, quite by surprise, the conversation took a sudden turn. The spiritual being identified itself as God, Goddess, All That Is. From there, the dialogue got very interesting and Don began to ask the questions that we've always wanted to ask. What's this thing called love? What about sex? What are we doing here? What happens when you die? What about sin, guilt and judgment? Do people exist on other planets? What can you do to improve your intimate relationships? The answers he received may surprise you, they may shock you or they may raise more questions. You may find comfort and a deeper sense of meaning in your life and even answers to your own unanswered questions. My Father Calls Me (One Man's Way Back To God) 'Reviews and News:' 'Don Marr's conversations are delightful. Filled with warmth, wit and humor, he manages to entertain, educate and answer many of the questions I have wanted to ask.' -L. Sterling 'This book caught me by surprise. I felt the struggle from the relative plane of duality to see and understand the metaphysical truths coming from the absolute, the Universal Mind. The dialogue between self and Higher Self was quite profound. All the material seemed rooted in Source and expressed in a way for the greater good of all.' -D. Chan 'Don's book is a great tool to guide you through our ultimate human responsibility. Reading this book has been therapeutic and inspirational. I am thrilled to have read it several times.' -D.C. Leonard 'My Father Calls Me has been a stimulating morning meditation for me. This book gives me a question for my day and helps me remember who I am. It is an exercise for strengthening my spiritual muscle . . ' -K. Walburger 'Your book shifts the directionality of choice from spiritual will imposed on the individual to creation by the individual himself, a provocative sense, both for the evolution of spirituality of the individual and for the evolution of spirit globally.' -J.L.S., MS, CPA 'This book of Don Marr's is great. It's great for those who have very little experience in spiritual reading and is helpful for those who have been on 'a path' for several years. A new look at dilemmas continuing for the human race.' -C. Cunningham 'Don asked questions that subliminally reach the surface of my consciousness continually. The spirit with which I live my life has truly been enhanced, developed and transformed from reading this book. Of course, it was perfect 'synergistic' timing for me ...' -C. Porter 'I enjoyed so much reading the dialogue. It was honest and faced the hardest questions of our Universe . . . It is wonderful seeing yourself in everything without judging . . . I will write the words . . . 'choose who you are' because for me, it was the beginning. Thank you.' -E.

Book Synopsis Christian Charismatic Movements by : Andrzej Siemieniewski
Download or read book Christian Charismatic Movements written by Andrzej Siemieniewski and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Testament shows the early Church as having both stable institutions and dynamic growth in charismatic ministries. In the twenty-first century, although many historically-determined inessentials have changed, the Church’s structure remains fundamentally the same. This study looks at New Testament ministries (Eph 4:11-12), Baptism in the Holy Spirit, and the history of the gift of tongues from the Acts of the Apostles through to the charismatics of our time, to see how these elements contribute to the fast-paced, global phenomenon we call the “pentecostalization” of modern Christianity. Our research shows that much of what appears to be novel in current ecclesial movements is the fruit of charisms that have been poured out from the beginning. The disciples of Christ are still bringing “out of his treasure what is new and old.”
Book Synopsis Rooms for Manoeuvre by : Jerzy Kochanowski
Download or read book Rooms for Manoeuvre written by Jerzy Kochanowski and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume focuses on emerging "rooms for manoeuvre" in the socialist societies of Central and Eastern Europe after the Second World War. Unlike in other works, these areas of activity are not viewed as isolated spheres where citizens could act independently from political and societal constraints. They are rather conceptualized here as geographical, social or institutional spaces whose existence was either outside of political control or more or less intentionally allowed by authorities and other decision-makers. The contributions investigate how East Germans, Poles, Romanians, Slovaks and Czechs coped with the limitations of socialist reality. How did they adopt and successfully adapt given norms to their own specific interests? To what extent were the resulting "rooms for manoeuvre" not only essential aspects of the state socialist system, but even necessary to stabilize it?
Book Synopsis Dance as Third Space by : Heike Walz
Download or read book Dance as Third Space written by Heike Walz and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dance plays an important role in many religious traditions, in rites of passage, processions, healing rituals or festivals. But it is also controversial, especially in Christianity. Colonial European Christian discourses tend to separate dance from religion(s) and spirituality. This volume explores dance as "Third Space", following Homi Bhabha's postcolonial metaphor. The "Inter-Dance approach" combines interdisciplinary theoretical considerations with case studies. International experts examine dance controversies and discourses from the early church to World Christianity, as well as in Hasidic Judaism, Greek mysteries, Islamic Sufism, West African Togolese religions, and Afro-Brazilian Umbanda. Christian dance theologies are unfolded and the boundary-crossing potential of dance in interreligious and intercultural encounters is explored. The volume breaks new ground in how dance as ephemeral performative art, embodied thought and gendered discourse can transform studies of religion.
Book Synopsis Beyond Borders by : Agnieszka Adamowicz-Pośpiech
Download or read book Beyond Borders written by Agnieszka Adamowicz-Pośpiech and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Der vorliegende dreisprachige Band konzentriert sich auf Akte des transgressiven Handelns/Schreibens in ausgewählten Texten europäischer Literaturen, deren Autoren sich durch Geschlecht, Nationalität und Zeitrahmen unterscheiden. So berücksichtigen die hier gesammelten Beiträge eine doppelte Fragestellung: nach der Differenz und Überschreitung von Normen. Beide Begriffe werden zueinander in Beziehung gesetzt, um jeglichen Übergang in kulturell-sozial-historische Kontexte einbetten zu können. Die in chronologischer Reihenfolge präsentierten Analysen und Interpretationen von ausgewählten Texten deutscher, französischer, polnischer, russischer sowie antiker Literatur zeigen exemplarische Akte der Transgression in verschiedenen Kulturen und unter sich verändernden Zeitumständen und dokumentieren ästhetische Versuche, die bestehende Ordnung zu revidieren und eine neue zu schaffen. This trilingual volume focuses on acts of transgressive acting/writing in selected texts of European literatures whose authors differ in gender, nationality and time frame. Thus, the contributions collected here consider a double questioning: of difference and transgression of norms. Both concepts are set in relation to each other in order to be able to embed any transition in cultural-social-historical contexts. The analyses and interpretations of selected texts from German, French, Polish, Russian and ancient literature, presented in chronological order, show exemplary acts of transgression in different cultures and under changing time circumstances and document aesthetic attempts to revise the existing order and create a new one.
Book Synopsis Loyalty and Citizenship by : Gozde Yazici Corut
Download or read book Loyalty and Citizenship written by Gozde Yazici Corut and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gozde Yazici Corut unfolds the details of everyday life and represents the local people as active agents - active, moreover, in relation both to the changing nature and effectiveness of the Ottoman state's assertion of territorial authority and also to the differences between policies and practices of the Russian and Ottoman Empires. Overall, she focuses on the end-of-empire border politics and the issue of Ottoman citizenship not only from the perspective of macro-level political developments and central state power but also in terms of the peripheral specificities of administration and the movements and subjecthood choices of people inhabiting the Russo-Ottoman borderland. The author presents a new type of multi-faceted account of borderland development in which ethno-religious considerations came to inform a somewhat messy production of sovereignty in the context of the modernizing transition between empire and nation-state.
Book Synopsis The Political Cult of the Dead in Ukraine by : Guido Hausmann
Download or read book The Political Cult of the Dead in Ukraine written by Guido Hausmann and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ukrainian Euromaidan in 2013–14 and the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war in the Eastern part of the country have posed new questions to historians. The volume investigates the relevance of the cults of the fallen soldiers to Ukraine's national history and state. It places the dead of the Euromaidan and the forms and functions of the emerging new cult of the dead in the context of older cults from pre-Soviet, Soviet and post-Soviet times from various Ukrainian regions until the end of the presidency of Petro Poroshenko in 2019. The contributions emphasize the importance of the grassroot level, of local and regional actors or memory entrepreneurs, myths of state origin and national defense demanding unity, and the dynamics of commemorative practices in the last thirty years in relation to pluralist and fragmented processes of nationand state-building. They contribute to new conceptualizations of the political cult of the dead.
Book Synopsis Jewish Literatures and Cultures in Southeastern Europe by : Renate Hansen-Kokoruš
Download or read book Jewish Literatures and Cultures in Southeastern Europe written by Renate Hansen-Kokoruš and published by Böhlau Wien. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume offers an overview of the diverse Jewish experiences in Southeastern Europe from the 19th to the 21st centuries, and the various forms and strategies of their representation in literature, the arts, historiography and philosophy. Southeastern Europe is characterized by a high degree of ethnical, religious and cultural diversity. Jews, whether Sephardim, Ashkenazim or Romaniots – settling there in different periods – experienced divergent life worlds which engendered rich cultural production. Though recent scholarly and popular interest in this heterogeneous region has grown impressively, Jewish cultural production is still an under-researched area. The volume offers an overview of the diverse Jewish experiences in Southeastern Europe from the 19th to the 21st centuries, and the various forms and strategies of their representation in literature, the arts, historiography and philosophy, thus creating a dialogue between Jewish studies, Balkan studies, and current literary and cultural theories.
Book Synopsis Defects of Consent in Consumer E-Commerce from the Polish Law Perspective by : Katarzyna Południak-Gierz
Download or read book Defects of Consent in Consumer E-Commerce from the Polish Law Perspective written by Katarzyna Południak-Gierz and published by V&R unipress. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The regulation on defects of consent loses its usefulness and should be replaced by special regulations, more suited to the requirements of consumer e-commerce. The study’s main objective is to verify whether, due to the evolution of the concept of the declaration of intent, the emergence of non-individual consumer protection instruments, and technological developments the code regulation of defects in the declaration of will remains useful in the case of contracts concluded by consumers on the Internet. The impact of the development of the Internet environment on the applicability and effectiveness of this traditional private institution is analyzed. Mechanisms that, in practice, displace the regulation of vice of consent are indicated.
Book Synopsis Edwards, Germany, and Transatlantic Contexts by : Rhys Bezzant
Download or read book Edwards, Germany, and Transatlantic Contexts written by Rhys Bezzant and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan Edwards engaged in notable ways with the church in Germany through his writings on spirituality, theology and missiology, but this contribution has rarely been acknowledged in academic publications. In this book scholars who have an interest in both Edwards and the church in Europe offer contributions to a significant worldwide conversation on Edwards's texts and teachings. He found an ally in Martin Luther, sought out encouragement from German Pietists, and engaged with Western traditions of philosophy which proved useful in sharpening subsequent reflection on God's work in the world. Edwards was not just a remote colonial American pastor, but an active participant in the transatlantic republic of letters and contributed to the birth of the global missions movement, for which the church in Germany was itself a significant base.
Book Synopsis The Reformed and Celibate Pastor by : Seth D. Osborne
Download or read book The Reformed and Celibate Pastor written by Seth D. Osborne and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Baxter (1615–1691) was arguably the greatest English Puritan of the seventeenth century. He is well known for his ministerial manual "The Reformed Pastor", in which he expressed the unusual conviction that parish ministers were better off unmarried. And yet, Baxter seemed to contradict himself by marrying one of his parishioners, Margaret Charlton. Though Baxter claimed to be happily married, he continued to champion celibacy for the rest of his life. This book explores Baxter's argument for clerical celibacy by placing it in the context of his life and the turbulent events of seventeenth-century England. His viewpoint was shaped by several factors, including the Puritan literature he read, the context of his parish ministry, his burdensome model of soul care, and the formative life experiences shaping his theology and perspective. These factors not only explain why Baxter became the only Puritan to champion clerical celibacy but also why he continued to do so even after marrying.
Book Synopsis James Owen and the Defense of Moderate Nonconformity by : Jason Matossian
Download or read book James Owen and the Defense of Moderate Nonconformity written by Jason Matossian and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period of Revolution and Toleration in England was filled with rapid change, political uncertainty, and ecclesiastical volatility. Still recovering from the strife of Civil War and a divisive Restoration, the relationship between the Church of England and Nonconformists remained deeply strained. Although Dissenters were granted the right to gather for worship under Toleration, their legitimacy was regularly challenged. Within this context, a variety of significant controversies arose in which James Owen, a Welsh Presbyterian minister, played a prominent role and was a leading voice for moderate Nonconformity. Along with a group of moderate Nonconformist friends like Edmund Calamy, Philip and Matthew Henry, and Francis Tallents, Owen defended a version of Protestant ecumenism. This was a theological conviction that (1) the unity of the Protestant Church was indispensable and (2) this unity was to be found in agreement on essential doctrines, not in sharing ecclesiastical structures. Owen, along with his associates, defended the Dissenters' separation from the Church of England as biblically sanctioned and at the same time emphasized that such separation was not schismatic. Owen's clear, biblically articulate, and historically informed writing made his contribution to the period of Toleration significant and influential.
Book Synopsis FrC 22.2 Nikostratos II – Theaitetos by : Andrew Hartwig
Download or read book FrC 22.2 Nikostratos II – Theaitetos written by Andrew Hartwig and published by Verlag Antike. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is part of the Fragmenta Comica series which aims to provide commentaries and translations to all the surviving fragments and testimonia of the comic poets of ancient Greece. This volume offers the first scholarly commentary and sustained study of several late fourth-century BCE poets of the so-called New Comedy – among them Philippides of Athens, a writer and dramatist highly esteemed in antiquity, known especially for his acrimonious clashes with Athenian demagogues and his influential friendship with foreign kings. All fragments are subject to close textual, linguistic and stylistic analysis, and are interpreted against the wider literary, social and historical background of the period. This volume will be a valuable reference work for scholars and students of ancient comedy, as well as anyone interested in ancient literature more generally and the broader historical and cultural contexts in which these texts were written.
