Book Synopsis The Millennial Renaissance by : Lucy Cohen
Download or read book The Millennial Renaissance written by Lucy Cohen and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millennials are the media's favourites. We can't hold on to jobs. We aren't buying houses. We don't save for retirement. If we go to university, we're racking up debt-and if we don't, we're slackers and dropouts. Here's the thing: if we don't own or achieve the traditional trappings of "adulthood," it's because the baby boomers have ruined it for us. They own the affordable housing. They snagged all the decent pension plans and are staying in the job market longer. They're eating up state-run pension programs-and oh, yeah...they brought the economy to a crashing halt a few years back. So why would we want to "adult" like them? It's not as if their way worked out well. In The Millennial Renaissance, millennial and business entrepreneur Lucy Cohen offers millennials an alternative to the path taken by the boomers-an innovative and attainable approach to both living well and realistically planning for retirement. Nothing you've been taught about retirement planning applies anymore. You're going to have to forge your own path in a world with new financial and career expectations. Your parents might not like it. The media certainly won't. But we're millennials, and we walk our own path.

Download or read book Fast Future written by David D. Burstein and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A millennial examines how his generation is profoundly impacting politics, business, media, and activism They’ve been called trophy kids, entitled, narcissistic, the worst employees in history, and even the dumbest generation. But, argues David Burstein, the millennial generation’s unique blend of civic idealism and savvy pragmatism will enable us to overcome a deeply divided nation facing economic and environmental calamities. With eighty-million millennials (people who are today eighteen to thirty years old) coming of age and emerging as leaders, this is the largest generation in U.S. history, and, by 2020, its members will represent one out of every three adults. They are more ethnically and racially diverse than their elders and have begun their careers at a time when the recession has set back the job market. Yet they remain optimistic about their future and are deeply connected to one another. Drawing on extensive interviews with his millennial peers and compelling new research, Burstein illustrates how his generation is simultaneously shaping and being shaped by a fast-paced and fast-changing world. Part oral history, part social documentary, Fast Future reveals the impact and story of the millennial generation—in its own words.

Book Synopsis Millennial Common Sense: The Philosophy of Liberty and The Cure for Life by : Jeremy Robert Walker
Download or read book Millennial Common Sense: The Philosophy of Liberty and The Cure for Life written by Jeremy Robert Walker and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-05 with total page 814 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Philosophy of Liberty is the highest planetary debate. America is an idea before a state. Truth animates imagination, governs liberty, preserves God's kingdom of life and property on the earth, and defends the gospel of Jesus Christ: the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, my savior, chain-breaker, and Prince of Peace authoring Liberty and governing Death. The enemy seek and destroy what could be; the new Atlantis. Can destiny vanish? How can time amplify season? Does the holy spirit favor reason? Why do men risk their fortune? Must one fear God or man? What if a society sabotage the pursuit of happiness? God molds the men that answer His call to be the defense of, by, and for the people of His kingdom. Honesty treads down the blight of hell. Duty and reverence toward the defense of human liberty establish true civilizational nobility and declare safety to the mankind held captive to the yoke of envy and greed. Perhaps adversity and composure motion for the moral and resilient to keep safe with the love and wisdom of Heaven's instructive understanding. What if Heaven transcends awareness; manifests destiny; seizes that life without slavery; goes home to the promise land; envision the illumination of God? Raising the standard to God razes the pirates. Where goes the heart when the lands go awash? What happens to one's spirit when one can no longer be water or manifest wind? Verily, the heart does not suffer the mind.
Book Synopsis The Millennial Sovereign by : A. Azfar Moin
Download or read book The Millennial Sovereign written by A. Azfar Moin and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the end of the sixteenth century and the turn of the first Islamic millennium, the powerful Mughal emperor Akbar declared himself the most sacred being on earth. The holiest of all saints and above the distinctions of religion, he styled himself as the messiah reborn. Yet the Mughal emperor was not alone in doing so. In this field-changing study, A. Azfar Moin explores why Muslim sovereigns in this period began to imitate the exalted nature of Sufi saints. Uncovering a startling yet widespread phenomenon, he shows how the charismatic pull of sainthood (wilayat)—rather than the draw of religious law (sharia) or holy war (jihad)—inspired a new style of sovereignty in Islam. A work of history richly informed by the anthropology of religion and art, The Millennial Sovereign traces how royal dynastic cults and shrine-centered Sufism came together in the imperial cultures of Timurid Central Asia, Safavid Iran, and Mughal India. By juxtaposing imperial chronicles, paintings, and architecture with theories of sainthood, apocalyptic treatises, and manuals on astrology and magic, Moin uncovers a pattern of Islamic politics shaped by Sufi and millennial motifs. He shows how alchemical symbols and astrological rituals enveloped the body of the monarch, casting him as both spiritual guide and material lord. Ultimately, Moin offers a striking new perspective on the history of Islam and the religious and political developments linking South Asia and Iran in early-modern times.
Book Synopsis Millennial Cervantes by : Bruce R. Burningham
Download or read book Millennial Cervantes written by Bruce R. Burningham and published by University of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millennial Cervantes explores some of the most important recent trends in Cervantes scholarship in the twenty-first century. It brings together leading Cervantes scholars of the United States in order to showcase their cutting-edge work within a cultural studies frame that encompasses everything from ekphrasis to philosophy, from sexuality to Cold War political satire, and from the culinary arts to the digital humanities. Millennial Cervantes is divided into three sets of essays—conceptually organized around thematic and methodological lines that move outward in a series of concentric circles. The first group, focused on the concept of “Cervantes in his original contexts,” features essays that bring new insights to these texts within the primary context of early modern Iberian culture. The second group, focused on the concept of “Cervantes in comparative contexts,” features essays that examine Cervantes’s works in conjunction with those of the English-speaking world, both seventeenth- and twentieth-century. The third group, focused on the concept of “Cervantes in wider cultural contexts,” examines Cervantes’s works—principally Don Quixote—as points of departure for other cultural products and wider intellectual debates. This collection articulates the state of Cervantes studies in the first two decades of the new millennium as we move further into a century that promises both unimagined technological advances and the concomitant cultural changes that will naturally adhere to this new technology, whatever it may be.
Book Synopsis A Millennial in Paradise by : Will Conquer
Download or read book A Millennial in Paradise written by Will Conquer and published by Sophia. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In each generation, heroes of the Faith, whom the Church recognizes as saints, emerge. There are many characteristics that they have in common, but none thus far have used cell phones, played PlayStation video games, or searched for information on Google. That is about to change. A young "computer geek" named Carlo Acutis, who created a website cataloguing every reported Eucharistic miracle in the world and died of leukemia a year later at age fifteen, was beatified in November 2019, after a healing miracle in Brazil was attributed to his intercession. Since the beatification ceremony one year later, solemn crowds have been filing past the exposed relics of the blessed youth in Assisi's Church of Santa Maria Maggiore. Carlo is a sign of contradiction in the modern world who serves as a heroic model for today's young people--a teenager who programmed computers and enjoyed films and comics yet lived as an authentic and sincere disciple of Christ. In these pages, you'll discover how he embraced the Faith as a boy and developed the virtues necessary to live a Christ-centered life in a secular society, how he overcame the vices that plagued him, and how he gracefully dealt with heartaches he could not divulge even to his parents. When he developed leukemia, he offered his suffering both for Pope Benedict XVI and for the Catholic Church, saying: "I offer all the suffering I will have to undergo for the Lord, for the Pope, and the Church." In this surprising and inspiring book, you'll also learn: How Carlo became holy, in only a few short years The young man's unusual loneliness and how he dealt with it His strategy for resisting peer pressure How he had fun without losing control and learned to resist gluttony How he interacted with teen girls who became his friends Why his explanations about the Mass are used in today's catechism classes in Italy How he dealt with friends who were sexually promiscuous and what he told them How he responded to the shocking news that he was dying (which happened two weeks later) His remarkable Eucharistic Miracles Exhibition--made possible by his computer skills--that is now touring churches all over Europe
