Book Synopsis The Jewish-Christian Encounter in Medieval Preaching by : Jonathan Adams
Download or read book The Jewish-Christian Encounter in Medieval Preaching written by Jonathan Adams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the complexity of preaching as a phenomenon in the medieval Jewish-Christian encounter. This was not only an "encounter" as physical meeting or confrontation (such as the forced attendance of Jews at Christian sermons that took place across Europe), but also an "imaginary" or theological encounter in which Jews remained a figure from a distant constructed time and place who served only to underline and verify Christian teachings. Contributors also explore the Jewish response to Christian anti-Jewish preaching in their own preaching and religious instruction.
Book Synopsis Constantino, ¿el primer emperador cristiano? Religión y política en el siglo IV by : Josep Vilella Masana
Download or read book Constantino, ¿el primer emperador cristiano? Religión y política en el siglo IV written by Josep Vilella Masana and published by Edicions Universitat Barcelona. This book was released on 2015-11-17 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La victoria de Constantino en la batalla del Puente Milvio adquirió gran trascendencia casi desde el mismo año 312, principalmente porque cristianos y paganos la relacionaron con su conversión a la Christianitas. Desde entonces, la conducta procristiana del monarca comportó relevantes cambios en el registro histórico, entre los que destacan el apoyo tutelado a las iglesias y, en general, el fenómeno de la «cristianización» del mundo antiguo. Vinculados al congreso internacional que se celebró en Barcelona y Tarragona del 20 al 24 de marzo de 2012 para conmemorar el 1700.º aniversario de tal efeméride, los estudios que conforman este volumen examinan diferentes y complementarias cuestiones relativas a la trayectoria de este poliédrico emperador y aspectos político-religiosos de su época, prestando asimismo atención a los «Constantinos» mostrados por el ingente y secular acervo documental alusivo a su figura. En el análisis y la contextualización del proceder de Constantino, resulta axial su actuación en el ámbito confesional, caracterizada tanto por el favor al cristianismo como por la conservación de la tradición pagano-imperial, aunque más empobrecida. Mediante una atenta valoración crítica de los testimonios existentes, el presente libro profundiza en la dimensión histórica y legendaria de un personaje clave en el paso del poder pagano al poder cristiano y, en consecuencia, fundamental en el decurso del Imperio romano y de nuestra Europa, en la cual el cristianismo sigue manteniendo un notable protagonismo.

Download or read book Symposiacs written by Plutarch and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-12 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Symposiacs By Plutarch Plutarch (Lucius Mestrius Plutarchus), was a Greek historian, biographer, and essayist, known primarily for his Parallel Lives and Moralia. He is considered today to be a Middle Platonist. He was born to a prominent family in Chaeronea, Boeotia, a town about twenty miles east of Delphi. Symposiacs is one of Plutarch's less known essays. Has it happens to many works of antiquity like this one, small pieces of the book are missing. Unfortunately because of that, some "questions" made in the Symposiacs are forever missing an answer. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
Book Synopsis The Aesthetics of the Greek Banquet by : François Lissarrague
Download or read book The Aesthetics of the Greek Banquet written by François Lissarrague and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In deepening our understanding of the symposium in ancient Greece, this book embodies the wit and play of the images it explains: those decorating Athenian drinking vessels from the sixth and fifth centuries B.C. The vases used at banquets often depict the actual drinkers who commissioned their production and convey the flowing together of wine, poetry, music, games, flirtation, and other elements that formed the complex structure of the banquet itself. A close reading of the objects handled by drinkers in the images reveals various metaphors, particularly that of wine as sea, all expressing a wide range of attitudes toward an ambiguous substance that brings cheer but may also cause harm. Not only does this work offer an anthropological view of ancient Greece, but it explores a precise iconographic system. In so doing it will encourage and enrich further reflection on the role of the image in a given culture. Originally published in 1990. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.

Download or read book Memory, Mourning, Landscape written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume sheds twenty-first-century light on the charged interactions between memory, mourning and landscape. A century after Freud, our understanding of how memory and mourning function continues to be challenged, revised and refined. Increasingly, scholarly attention is paid to the role of situation in memorialising, whether in commemorations of individuals or in marking the mass deaths of late modern warfare and disasters. Memory, Mourning, Landscape offers the nuanced insights provided by interdisciplinarity in nine essays by leading and up-and-coming academics from the fields of history, museum studies, literature, anthropology, architecture, law, geography, theology and archaeology. The vital visual element is reinforced with an illustrated coda by a practising artist. The result is a unique symbiotic dialogue which will speak to scholars from a range of disciplines.

Download or read book Greek Lives written by Plutarch and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1998-11-05 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lycurgus, Pericles, Solon, Nicias, Themistocles, Alcibiades, Cimon, Agesilaus, Alexander `I treat the narrative of the Lives as a kind of mirror...The experience is like nothing so much as spending time in their company and living with them: I receive and welcome each of them in turn as my guest.' In the nine lives of this collection Plutarch introduces the reader to the major figures and periods of classical Greece. He portrays virtues to be emulated and vices to be avoided, but his purpose is also implicitly to educate and warn those in his own day who wielded power. In prose that is rich, elegant and sprinkled with learned references, he explores with an extraordinary degree of insight the interplay of character and political action. While drawing chiefly on historical sources, he brings to biography a natural story-teller's ear for a good anecdote. Throughout the ages Plutarch's Lives have been valued for their historical value and their charm. This new translation will introduce new generations to his urbane erudition. The most comprehensive selection available, it is accompanied by a lucid introduction, explanatory notes, bibliographies, maps and indexes. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
