Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE NETERU OF KEMET: An Introduction2010 version (reprint of the rare 1994 text)"If you are looking for a good introductory book to the Gods of ancient Egypt, The Neteru of Kemet is the best I have read. The author is a graduate student of ancient religions and a priestess of the House of Netjer. Thus, she writes of the Gods (Neteru) with both scholarly background and personal experience. This combination gives her material that sense of truth so often lacking in other recent books on this subject.The introduction deals principally with the religious practices of Kemet (ancient Egypt) and touches on those of the House of Netjer. The bulk of the book consists of 13 vignettes devoted to the most universally known Neteru. Each vignette contains Kemetic texts, visualizations/ meditations, illustrations, and a discussion of the Neter being described. Following these is an excellent bibliography and a brief glossary...."Reviewed by Shawn Fields-Berry Obsidian Magazine

Download or read book Encyclopedia of African Religion written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2008-11-26 with total page 920 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Numerous titles focusing on particular beliefs in Africa exist, including Marcel Griaule's Conversations with Ogotemmeli, but this one presents an unparallelled exploration of a multitude of cultures and experiences. It is both a gateway to deeper exploration and a penetrating resource on its own. This is bound to become the definitive scholarly resource on African religions." — Library Journal, Starred Review "Overall, because of its singular focus, reliability, and scope, this encyclopedia will prove invaluable where there is considerable interest in Africa or in different religious traditions." –Library Journal As the first comprehensive work to assemble ideas, concepts, discourses, and extensive essays in this vital area, the Encyclopedia of African Religion explores such topics as deities and divinities, the nature of humanity, the end of life, the conquest of fear, and the quest for attainment of harmony with nature and other humans. Editors Molefi Kete Asante and Ama Mazama include nearly 500 entries that seek to rediscover the original beauty and majesty of African religion. Features · Offers the best representation to date of the African response to the sacred · Helps readers grasp the enormity of Africa's contribution to religious ideas by presenting richly textured concepts of spirituality, ritual, and initiation while simultaneously advancing new theological categories, cosmological narratives, and ways to conceptualize ethical behavior · Provides readers with new metaphors, figures of speech, modes of reasoning, etymologies, analogies, and cosmogonies · Reveals the complexity, texture, and rhythms of the African religious tradition to provide scholars with a baseline for future works The Encyclopedia of African Religion is intended for undergraduate and graduate students in fields such as Religion, Africana Studies, Sociology, and Philosophy.
Download or read book Beyond the Nile written by Sara E. Cole and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From about 2000 BCE onward, Egypt served as an important nexus for cultural exchange in the eastern Mediterranean, importing and exporting not just wares but also new artistic techniques and styles. Egyptian, Greek, and Roman craftsmen imitated one another’s work, creating cultural and artistic hybrids that transcended a single tradition. Yet in spite of the remarkable artistic production that resulted from these interchanges, the complex vicissitudes of exchange between Egypt and the Classical world over the course of nearly 2500 years have not been comprehensively explored in a major exhibition or publication in the United States. It is precisely this aspect of Egypt’s history, however, that Beyond the Nile uncovers. Renowned scholars have come together to provide compelling analyses of the constantly evolving dynamics of cultural exchange, first between Egyptians and Greeks—during the Bronze Age, then the Archaic and Classical periods of Greece, and finally Ptolemaic Egypt—and later, when Egypt passed to Roman rule with the defeat of Cleopatra. Beyond the Nile, a milestone publication issued on the occasion of a major international exhibition, will become an indispensable contribution to the field. With gorgeous photographs of more than two hundred rare objects, including frescoes, statues, obelisks, jewelry, papyri, pottery, and coins, this volume offers an essential and inter-disciplinary approach to the rich world of artistic cross-pollination during antiquity.
Book Synopsis The History of Africa by : Molefi Kete Asante
Download or read book The History of Africa written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a paradox about Africa: it remains a subject that attracts considerable attention yet rarely is there a full appreciation of its complexity. African historiography has typically consisted of writing Africa for Europe—instead of writing Africa for itself, as itself, from its own perspectives. The History of Africa redresses this by letting the perspectives of Africans themselves take center stage. Authoritative and comprehensive, this book provides a wide-ranging history of Africa from earliest prehistory to the present day—using the cultural, social, political, and economic lenses of Africa as instruments to illuminate the ordinary lives of Africans. The result is a fresh survey that includes a wealth of indigenous ideas, African concepts, and traditional outlooks that have escaped the writing of African history in the West. The new edition includes information on the Arab Spring, the rise of FrancAfrica, the presence of the Chinese in Africa, and the birth of South Sudan. The chapters go up to the present day, addressing US President Barack Obama's policies toward Africa. A new companion website provides students and scholars of Africa with access to a wealth of supporting resources for each chapter, including images, video and audio clips, and links to sites for further research. This straightforward, illustrated, and factual text allows the reader to access the major developments, personalities, and events on the African continent. This groundbreaking survey is an indispensable guide to African history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ReAffirmation Of The Revelation In life; some men hunt for food and Truth; while others hunt for resources and power and of the two the man whom hunts for power makes the hunter of Truth the hunted wherein there is no knowledge that is not power; and no power like the Truth and as Lawry S. Taylor states, The True glory of the hunt is not complete until you ve heard the lion s side of the story and in regard to his words indeed men whom hunt for food as lions hunt for food are now hunted as lions are hunted by men and of these hunted men; the glory of the hunt is not complete; because the True glory of the hunted; whom rarely live to tell the secrets of their survival that the hunters take with their lives has not been heard because history is written by the victor; who keeps all the spoils and maintain their victory by riding the dark horse whom is one with the mentally-dark people which calls for enlightened survivors to tell the account of their history themselves because for centuries it has been told by the children of the victor; whom were compelled by their grandee of darkness to hate the God of light; whose face for centuries shined on all flesh; and made all ancestors shades of dark to light in complexion; resulting in all people; regardless of color-of-skin; whether spirit made or dust made whom over time were made brothers and sisters and children of this same God; whom is a Father from eternity to eternity; and begot humanity through Mother-Nature; whom is with God in Spiritual union; as one Maternal-Soul and one Paternal-Soul who said Let us make Adam in our image after our likeness resulting with the spirit-made natural humans of all nations as Their children whose presence is marked in the book of life of the pages of time; with an account to be told; that was lived and passed on to the children of GOD from GOD; whom as the source is the oldest where from the source of GOD GOD s oldest children then passed their knowledge on to us; whom as their progeny; once did the same for our children; whom like us and GOD S oldest; are gods but as a people whom have been hunted; have forgotten what this means.

Book excerpt: In our world, in the 12th century BCE the Late Bronze Age Collapse devastated the Near East, putting an end to many prosperous civilizations, and beginning the dark ages, setting the region back by centuries. But not in this timeline. Here, disaster is averted. The civilizations survive - Egyptians, Hittites, Assyrians, Kassites in Babylonia, Elamites, and Mycenaean Greeks retain their kingdoms and continue prospering and advancing in all ways. Technological, political, economic, and social progress continues rapidly, and in some areas even begins approaching our modern world, despite barely a century passing from the divergence point. But not all is as well as it seems. Tensions still run as high as ever, with the world being in a cold war between two factions, led by the Egyptians and the Hittites, with them and their allies ardent on imposing their order on the rest of the region. It is the year 22 of the reign of the pharaoh Ramesses X and the Great Powers' Club Conference is about to commence, where the most important rulers will meet to discuss the future of the known world. Many are hoping that this will finally usher in an era of eternal peace, yet with every king having his own interests and willing to go to great lengths to achieve them, nothing is certain...

Book Synopsis "Au Set of Kemet" by : Sharon Desruisseaux
Download or read book "Au Set of Kemet" written by Sharon Desruisseaux and published by Sharon Desruisseaux. This book was released on 2011-10-03 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine your life's purpose predetermined before you were even born? Before Au Set was born her mother had planned all she was to be. As the first born of an ancient legacy in a land called Eshnunna her life was all designed theologically before she was even born as the oldest daughter of a Goddess Representative of the temple for Inanna named Ninnuit. She was born to a land older than Babylon and even older than Sumer. The first in line to an ancient destiny older than recorded history. However, the world had something different planned. As a tribe of men came down with a vengeance to destroy all of the Goddess cults and all those involved, Au Set and her family knew their numbers alone would not assure their survival. To keep their world and legacy alive her mother Ninnuit had to think fast to save them all. What she came up would not only save their family and their traditions but to line her family up in the creation of a culture that would shake the world-that of a land far to the south. A land of a long and endless river that provided life inside a vast desert. Au Set and her siblings were sent to create a new dynasty in hopes of preserving her family legacy. They went to a land called Kemet. And there, Au Set and her siblings would learn to fight to protect all they have ever known and cherished and to forge creatively something new and possibly more powerful than ever their heritage had ever been. Her siblings became as legendary as she in the pages of history for they created what we know of Egypt and its mystery of a culture that lasted almost untouched for over three thousand years. She and her twin sister Neb Het (Nepthys) each took half of the strange and raw land of Kemet to rule over with their brothers Set (Suti) and Au Sar (Osiris). They had to leave their impact over a dying ancient tradition that they arrived to while still very young and afraid from all they left behind. They saw a rough world of ritual and religious cannibalism and animal worship. Together they conquered the first and built on the second and made it their own as temple and tomb paintings had been found of such. Their brother Tehuti (Thoth) founded writing and Au Sar brought Kemet agriculture and many more things were brought to light to this land untouched that would last millenniums after. The children of a lost culture alone in a vast wilderness striving to survive and to start something the world would never forget-Egypt. Revised November 2012

Book Synopsis Man, God, Religion, and State by : Desmond Clarke
Download or read book Man, God, Religion, and State written by Desmond Clarke and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2023-08-18 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man, God, Religion, and State, is a reflection on our physical, philosophical, and political, past, present, and possible future. This book may challenge the religious views of some readers, but it is not my intention to cause offence to any religious believer. We are all living in a time of anxiety and insecurities, which may prevent us from embracing our humanity. But we should never allow either the pain and sorrow of the past or the threats and fears of the present to obscure our vision of what is just and truthful. Our present socioeconomic relationships are based on injustice and falsehood, which is unsustainable. We must therefore adjust our level and rates of consumption before we cross the line of no-return. In this sense, Man, God, Religion, and State is a warning to us all.
