Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeologist Martin Day thinks he has escaped from real life when he buys a house on the Greek island of Naxos. Events prove him mistaken. He plans to write a book about a local historian called Nikos Elias and quickly realises that Elias had secrets which might lead to an exciting discovery. Then a man is murdered in a Naxos hotel, a mild-mannered American called Michael Moralis whom Day once met. Inspector Andreas Nomikos suspects that Moralis was connected to antiquities smuggling, but Day cannot believe it of the man. Nor can he leave well alone. While trying to get to the bottom of Elias's secret obsession, he also starts making his own investigations into who killed Michael Moralis. Rich local colour, a clever plot and an eccentric archaeologist make this first book in the Naxos Mysteries series an absorbing read.

Book excerpt: Inexplicably, Dr Michael Moralis, a scholar of Mycenaean Greece from New York, has just been murdered in his hotel room on the beautiful and crime-free island of Naxos in the Cyclades. Archaeologist Martin Day already had plans for the summer. He owns a house on Naxos where he writes and researches, and is about to start work on a biography of local historian Nikos Elias, who for the last years of his life had a single obsession: to find a Mycenaean tomb which he was convinced still lay undiscovered on Naxos. Day's friend Helen Aitchison arrives to stay with him for a few months to work on her latest novel and avoid thinking about her former disastrous marriage. Neither Day nor Helen anticipates the newspaper article from which they learn of Moralis's death. The local police are relieved when Day offers some insights into the dead scholar, but have little evidence until they are joined by a senior man from the Athens force. The unconventional Inspector Andreas Nomikos believes the murder is linked to some antiquities smugglers he has tracked to the Cyclades, and plans to use Day, with his international contacts in the world of archaeology, to help him prove it. Day has his own ideas. It looks to him like Moralis had other reasons entirely for being on Naxos, involving people whom the police have not yet considered. Day loves a good intellectual challenge, such as Nikos Elias's obscure tomb theories and Michael Moralis's puzzling murder. He loves his platonic friendship with Helen, and all the delightful food and drink that Greece has to offer. He may even be slightly in love with the unobtainable Deppi Kiloziglou. However, when he and Helen find the body of a young man in a stone hut in the hills, Day puts his easy life on hold until he has resolved the mystery in his own maverick way. It turns out he's rather good at it, although his approach is not without risk.

Book Synopsis The Friday Mosque in the City by : A. Hilâl Uğurlu
Download or read book The Friday Mosque in the City written by A. Hilâl Uğurlu and published by Critical Studies in Architecture of the Middle East. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume explores the dynamic relationship between the Friday mosque and the Islamic city, addressing the traditional topics through a fresh new lens and offering a critical examination of each case study in its own spatial, urban, and socio-cultural context. While these two well-known themes--concepts that once defined the field--have been widely studied by historians of Islamic architecture and urbanism, this compilation specifically addresses the functional and spatial ambiguity or liminality between these spaces. Instead of addressing the Friday mosque as the central signifier of the Islamic city, this collection provides evidence that there was (and continues to be) variety in the way architectural borders became fluid in and around Friday mosques across the Islamic world, from Cordoba to Jerusalem and from London to Lahore. By historicizing different cases and exploring the way human agency, through ritual and politics, shaped the physical and social fabric of the city, this volume challenges the generalizing and reductionist tendencies in earlier scholarship.

Download or read book Fasting written by Scot McKnight and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2010-12-27 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Fasting is the body talking what the spirit yearns, what the soul longs for, and what the mind knows to be true.” — Scot McKnight Christianity has traditionally been at odds with the human body. At times in the history of the church, Christians have viewed the body and physical desires as the enemy. Now, Scot McKnight, best-selling author of The Jesus Creed , reconnects the spiritual and the physical in the ancient discipline of fasting. Inside You'll Find: In-depth biblical precedents for the practice of fasting; How to fast effectively—and safely; Different methods of fasting as practiced in the Bible; Straight talk on pitfalls, such as cheating and motivation. Join McKnight as he explores the idea of “whole-body spirituality,” in which fasting plays a central role. This ancient practice, he says, doesn’t make sense to most of us until we have grasped the importance of the body for our spirituality, until we can view it as a spiritual response to a sacred moment. Fasting—simple, primitive, and ancient—still demonstrates a whole person’s earnest need and hunger for the presence of God, just as it has in the lives of God’s people throughout history. The Ancient Practices There is a hunger in every human heart for connection, primitive and raw, to God. To satisfy it, many are beginning to explore traditional spiritual disciplines used for centuries . . . everything from fixed-hour prayer to fasting to sincere observance of the Sabbath. Compelling and readable, the Ancient Practices series is for every spiritual sojourner, for every Christian seeker who wants more.

Download or read book Calendar written by Laurence Hull Stookey and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A probing but clearly written book, Calendar will find an appreciative audience beyond academia and clergy to the laity of the church: choirs and their directors, worship planners, adult study groups, and others who want to understand better the church's times of preparation and celebration. Calendar centers largely on theological meaning and parish practice in relation to liturgical time. Deliberately, almost no attention is given to detailed historical development, much of which is exceedingly complex in its origins and technical in its detail. An appendix entitled "Forgetting What You Were Always Taught (Or, This Book in a Nutshell)" aptly describes the radical reordering that Stookey believes occurs when our understanding of time and the story of Jesus takes its bearings from the Incarnation. So, just as the Christian week begins with Sunday, the day of Resurrection, Stookey follows the Christian year beginning with the season of Easter, and only then Lent; Christmas, then Advent. Illuminating discussions of Ordinary and Extraordinary Time, and the Sanctoral Cycle follow.
