Download or read book 万神说·上册(不可知论的“神学”)A Theory of Ten-Thousand Gods(part 1) written by Xuanjun Xie and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-02-05 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 谢选骏此书通过对于世界各种神话与宗教的梳理,说明这样一个观点:和其它的"有神学支持的神话不同",贯穿《圣经》的,其实是一种"不可知论的神学"。圣经的神是没有名字的,圣经的神也没有可以把握的确切内涵。圣经的神不像其它神话里的神那样,具有系列的故事。圣经所讲述的,是神与人的关系,而不是神的自身──因为"不可知论的神学"否决了人类能够知道神自身的秘密,而最多只能透露一些"神与人相关的启示"。Synopsis: This book of Xie Xuanjun's attempts to, through cardings of various mythologies and religions in this world, illustrate this point: unlike other mythologies corroborated by a theology, what is inherent in the Bible is actually a mythology of the agnostic. God in the Bible does not have a name, and does not really have a definite, graspable connotation. There are no series of stories about the Biblical God as about gods of other mythologies. The Bible is about the relationship between God and the humans. Mythology of the agnostic rejects the idea of humans' ability to know secrets about God, and what it can offer is, at the most, "some revelations about the relationship between God and the humans".

Book Synopsis In the Land of a Thousand Gods by : Christian Marek
Download or read book In the Land of a Thousand Gods written by Christian Marek and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A monumental history of Asia Minor from the Stone Age to the Roman Empire In this critically acclaimed book, Christian Marek masterfully provides the first comprehensive history of Asia Minor from prehistory to the Roman imperial period. Blending rich narrative with in-depth analyses, In the Land of a Thousand Gods shows Asia Minor’s shifting orientation between East and West and its role as both a melting pot of nations and a bridge for cultural transmission. Marek employs ancient sources to illuminate civic institutions, urban and rural society, agriculture, trade and money, the influential Greek writers of the Second Sophistic, the notoriously bloody exhibitions of the gladiatorial arena, and more. He draws on the latest research—in fields ranging from demography and economics to architecture and religion—to describe how Asia Minor became a center of culture and wealth in the Roman Empire. A breathtaking work of scholarship, In the Land of a Thousand Gods will become the standard reference book on the subject in English.
Book Synopsis Ten Thousand Saints by : Eleanor Henderson
Download or read book Ten Thousand Saints written by Eleanor Henderson and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Eleanor Henderson is in possession of an enormous talent which she has matched up with skill, ambition, and a fierce imagination. The resulting novel, Ten Thousand Saints, is the best thing I’ve read in a long time.” —Ann Patchett, bestselling author of Bel Canto and State of Wonder A sweeping, multigenerational drama, set against the backdrop of the raw, roaring New York City during the late 1980s, Ten Thousand Saints triumphantly heralds the arrival a remarkable new writer. Eleanor Henderson makes a truly stunning debut with a novel that is part coming of age, part coming to terms, immediately joining the ranks of The Emperor’s Children by Claire Messud and Jonathan Lethem’s The Fortress of Solitude. Adoption, teen pregnancy, drugs, hardcore punk rock, the unbridled optimism and reckless stupidity of the young—and old—are all major elements in this heart-aching tale of the son of diehard hippies and his strange odyssey through the extremes of late 20th century youth culture.

Book Synopsis The Ten Thousand by : Michael Curtis Ford
Download or read book The Ten Thousand written by Michael Curtis Ford and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of war, mighty Athens has been ravaged-- its navy destroyed, its city walls toppled, its army disbanded. The fierce military state of Sparta has triumphed, but passions and hate linger on. Thousands of battle-hardened veterans from both sides in the conflict remain scattered across the Greek islands, restless and dangerous-- until the young Persian prince Cyrus issues a call to arms from his base in Asia Minor. The rogue nobleman is raising an enormous mercenary army to wrest control of all of Persia, the most powerful empire on earth, from his half-brother the king. The young philosopher-warrior Xenophon, scion of a noble Athenian family and follower of Socrates, risks his father's wrath and embarks on the adventure with high hopes for glory. Joining his cousin Proxenus, the war-maddened Spartan general Clearchus, and a huge body of Cyrus' native troops, he and ten thousand Greek mercenaries depart on an astounding march of a thousand miles, across the searing desert. Their near-deadly journey culminated in a massive, bloody battle at the very threshold of Babylon-- a battle that proves disastrous for them. Their leaders are betrayed and murdered, their supply lines cut, and their route home across the desert blocked by the furious Persian king, bent on revenge. The Fates call on Xenophon to lead the devastated Greek soldiers in their escape, though he has little experience in commanding men. As the army flees toward the snowy north, its situation appears desperate. Months later, ten thousand battered, half-starved soldiers stagger out of the frozen mountains of Armenia into a small Greek trading post on the Black Sea. Their true tale of survival, and of the heroic expedition Xenophon led through the heart of an enemy empire, astonished the incredulous natives and has been the stuff of legend ever since. Michael Curtis Ford combines his expertise on fifth-century B.C. Greek warfare with explosive page-turning action to give us an epic novel of struggle and survival. Not since Steven Pressfield's Gates of Fire has any book so vividly captured the glory, beauty, and savage bloodshed that was ancient Greece.
