Book Synopsis Babylon Under Western Eyes by : Andrew Scheil
Download or read book Babylon Under Western Eyes written by Andrew Scheil and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Babylon under Western Eyes examines the mythic legacy of ancient Babylon, the Near Eastern city which has served western culture as a metaphor for power, luxury, and exotic magnificence for more than two thousand years. Sifting through the many references to Babylon in biblical, classical, medieval, and modern texts, Andrew Scheil uses Babylon's remarkable literary ubiquity as the foundation for a thorough analysis of the dynamics of adaptation and allusion in western literature. Touching on everything from Old English poetry to the contemporary apocalyptic fiction of the "Left Behind" series, Scheil outlines how medieval Christian society and its cultural successors have adopted Babylon as a political metaphor, a degenerate archetype, and a place associated with the sublime. Combining remarkable erudition with a clear and accessible style, Babylon under Western Eyes is the first comprehensive examination of Babylon's significance within the pantheon of western literature and a testimonial to the continuing influence of biblical, classical, and medieval paradigms in modern culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meisje is no ordinary dog. She's a gardag, a cybernetically enhanced, living weapon. She's also lost, hungry, and lonely.

As she closes in on the gardag, Elke finds her admiration for Meisje growing. And Meisje, weak with hunger, begins to wonder if she could trust the woman who is hunting her.

Book Synopsis Enter the Babylon System by : Rodrigo Bascunan
Download or read book Enter the Babylon System written by Rodrigo Bascunan and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-06-18 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A docu-style investigation of our fascination with the gun, from the perspective of the hip-hop generation. The 2003 shooting death of Toronto community-centre worker Kempton Howard put the spotlight on hip hop’s fixation with guns. Media and police soon blamed rap music and its tales of gang life on bullet-ridden US streets for the rising use of firearms in Canadian crime. Were these songs artful accounts of a terrible truth, or a self-fulfilling prophecy? Rodrigo Bascunan and Christian Pearce have interviewed many of the major players in the hip-hop world. As publishers of an award-winning magazine of urban culture, they’d watched rap music become a scapegoat for society’s much older and widely spread fascination with guns. What follows is their international adventure to deconstruct modern gun culture in all its manifestations. Bascunan and Pearce seek out hip-hop artists, illegal gun runners, firearms aficionados and manufacturers, museum curators, academics, politicians, video-game creators, activists, victims of gun violence and the family and friends left behind. Somewhere between Fast Food Nation, No Logo and a Michael Moore documentary, featuring sly sidebar material and original artwork, Enter the Babylon System is part outrageous journalistic pursuit and part passionate cri de coeur for sanity in the face of a society’s obsession.
Book Synopsis America, the Daughter of Babylon by : Allen Bonck
Download or read book America, the Daughter of Babylon written by Allen Bonck and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-11-10 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America, the Daughter of Babylon deals with the prophetic future of the United States of America. The Bible reveals that there will be a second nation of Babylon, which is described in detail throughout scripture and can be identified as America. The bible not only identifies America, but also gives detailed accounts of future events concerning her. God has much to say to us today about our relationship to Babylon and the Babylonian religion. This book reveals that many of the symbols of the Babylonian religion that was created by Lucifer himself, King of Babylon, are displayed as American symbols throughout her Capitol. The American Capitol itself is linked directly to the founding of Babel by its cornerstone.

Download or read book The Navarre Bible written by and published by Scepter Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 908 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the language of the Bible, the words "prophet", "prophecy" etc. have quite a broad meaning, but all refer, primarily, to the idea of "speaking in the name of God". The entire Old Testament could be said to be prophetical, but some books carry the names of four "major" prophets or teachers - a distinction based on the length of the texts. The books of the major prophets - Isaiah, Jeremiah (with Lamentations and Baruch), Ezekiel and Daniel - go to make up this volume of the Navarre Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you hire C.Card, you have scraped the bottom of the private eye barrel. And when Card is hired to steal a body from the morgue, he needs to stop dreaming, find bullets for his gun and get there before someone else does. Not since Trout Fishing in America has Brautigan so successfully combined his wild sense of humour with his famous poetic imagination. In this parody of the hard-boiled crime novel, the adventures of seedy, not-too-bright C.Card are a delight to both the mind and the heart.
