Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "John Vassar investigates the intertextual relationship between the Psalter and the Pentateuch, revealing the various markers in the Psalter that guide the reader to the Pentateuch. The initial marker discerned guiding the reader from the Psalter to the Pentateuch is the fivefold division of the Psalter. This study then proceeds to examine the relationship between the initial psalm of each book of the Psalter and then explores this relationship with a text from the five books of the Pentateuch."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis What We Talk About When We Talk About Books by : Leah Price
Download or read book What We Talk About When We Talk About Books written by Leah Price and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reports of the death of reading are greatly exaggerated Do you worry that you've lost patience for anything longer than a tweet? If so, you're not alone. Digital-age pundits warn that as our appetite for books dwindles, so too do the virtues in which printed, bound objects once trained us: the willpower to focus on a sustained argument, the curiosity to look beyond the day's news, the willingness to be alone. The shelves of the world's great libraries, though, tell a more complicated story. Examining the wear and tear on the books that they contain, English professor Leah Price finds scant evidence that a golden age of reading ever existed. From the dawn of mass literacy to the invention of the paperback, most readers already skimmed and multitasked. Print-era doctors even forbade the very same silent absorption now recommended as a cure for electronic addictions. The evidence that books are dying proves even scarcer. In encounters with librarians, booksellers and activists who are reinventing old ways of reading, Price offers fresh hope to bibliophiles and literature lovers alike.

Through the use of disarmingly frank, but wildly fun tactics that offer you simple and effective guidelines that work, you can stop treading water in writing exercises or hiding behind writer's block.

Book Synopsis Medicine and the Ethics of Care by : Diana Fritz Cates
Download or read book Medicine and the Ethics of Care written by Diana Fritz Cates and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 2002-03-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these essays, a diverse group of ethicists draw insights from both religious and feminist scholarship in order to propose creative new approaches to the ethics of medical care. While traditional ethics emphasizes rules, justice, and fairness, the contributors to this volume embrace an "ethics of care," which regards emotional engagement in the lives of others as basic to discerning what we ought to do on their behalf. The essays reflect on the three related themes: community, narrative, and emotion. They argue for the need to understand patients and caregivers alike as moral agents who are embedded in multiple communities, who seek to attain or promote healing partly through the medium of storytelling, and who do so by cultivating good emotional habits. A thought-provoking contribution to a field that has long been dominated by an ethics of principle, Medicine and the Ethics of Care will appeal to scholars and students who want to move beyond the constraints of that traditional approach.

Book Synopsis Children's Language by : K. E. Nelson
Download or read book Children's Language written by K. E. Nelson and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-03-18 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1983. This series, Children’s Language, reflects the conviction that extensive work on entirely new fronts along with a great deal of reinterpretation of old-front data will be necessary before any persuasive and truly orderly account of language. For all volumes in the series there is a common scheme of operation with two tactics. First, to give authors sufficient planning time and freedom to arrive at a chapter-length account of their area of thinking which vividly shows both the progress and the problems in that area, with the author of each chapter free to find a workable proportion of new experimental contributions, review, and theory. The second tactic concerns the selection of topics for each volume. This is Volume 4. Structures about language and thought and children as employed in certain other fields may well be shaken and stimulated, particularly in education, sociology, anthropology, literature, and language remediation.
Download or read book Residue written by Michael Monique and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-03-29 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep in the lush, Louisiana forest, beyond the streets of Lafayette and beyond the imaginations of most locals, lived someone or something as ancient as evil. She had only been a “folktale” or “legend” as many had labeled her, until she decided to make herself known. Cecil thought that life was normal. Normal as it could be for an ER doctor until one night he discovered something in the stomach of a dead patient. Something both awful and unexplainable. Something that would lead him on a trail of horror and mystery and right into the depths of evil itself. A trail as twisted as the tale in which it was woven. From eyewitness accounts of surviving victims, the stories of an exorcising priest friend and to the cultic circle of girls delving in the dark art. Residue is the tale of the residual effect of a curse. A sign, left behind in the victim. The all encompassing question for Cecil is, “why?” “Why was this one a victim?” The question which would soon change to “Why were these victims?” And finally, “Why is Jean-Marie after him?”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: VOGUE • FORBES • BOOKPAGE • NEW YORK POST • WIRED “I have not been as profoundly moved by a book in years.” —Jodi Picoult Even after she left home for Hollywood, Emmy-nominated TV writer Bess Kalb saved every voicemail her grandmother Bobby Bell ever left her. Bobby was a force—irrepressible, glamorous, unapologetically opinionated. Bobby doted on Bess; Bess adored Bobby. Then, at ninety, Bobby died. But in this debut memoir, Bobby is speaking to Bess once more, in a voice as passionate as it ever was in life. Recounting both family lore and family secrets, Bobby brings us four generations of indomitable women and the men who loved them. There’s Bobby’s mother, who traveled solo from Belarus to America in the 1880s to escape the pogroms, and Bess’s mother, a 1970s rebel who always fought against convention. But it was Bobby and Bess who always had the most powerful bond: Bobby her granddaughter’s fiercest supporter, giving Bess unequivocal love, even if sometimes of the toughest kind. Nobody Will Tell You This But Me marks the creation of a totally new, virtuosic form of memoir: a reconstruction of a beloved grandmother’s words and wisdom to tell her family’s story with equal parts poignancy and hilarity.
