Download or read book Tel Aviv Ramallah written by Yossi Yonah and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-21 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoav and Tali, a young Israeli couple, are at a crossroads. While conflicting offers for PhD studies in the US put their relationship to the test, Yoav is called in for army reserve service at a checkpoint near Ramallah - just as an old flame comes back into his life. Meanwhile, in the Palestinian city of Ramallah, longtime differences in professional success have driven a wedge between married couple Hadil and Hisham - she a Christian, he a Muslim. When Hisham's brother is kidnapped by Palestinian security forces, however, the relationship takes a surprising turn. As the couples navigate their seemingly disparate lives, their worlds draw inexorably towards a life-changing collision. Former member of Israeli parliament Prof. Yossi Yonah has written a hope-filled tragedy that deals with normal people's daily lives in a place where nothing is normal. Yonah's command of both Hebrew and Arabic language allows for a subtle and profound peek at the fascinating characters who currently call Israel and Palestine home. Endorsements ★★★★★ Tel Aviv Ramallah is a surprising novel, considering the time and place in which it was written. The author of Tel Aviv Ramallah dares to go against the current, to paint a different reality with his pen. This is not a utopian novel; it merely directs its attention to ordinary protagonists - an Israeli couple and a Palestinian couple - who engage in the pursuit of their banal yet personally-cherished goals: fulfilled personal relationships and rewarding family life. Although Jewish Israeli, the author has impressive command of Arabic, and displays remarkable familiarity with the subtleties of Palestinian culture and norms. Thus, the novel is indeed an inspiring achievement in literary border-crossing. Tel Aviv Ramallah is an endearing demonstration of the intractable human drive to lead a meaningful and rewarding life despite the heavy clouds filling the sky. Sami Michael, author, Victoria 1993; A Trumpet in the Wadi 1987 ★★★ TEL AVIV RAMALLAH is a novel narrated from four different complementary perspectives, and grounded in two different social and cultural backdrops - Israel and Palestine. With a steady hand and virtuosic grasp of history, culture, and language (both Hebrew and Arabic), Yossi Yonah unfolds four lifespans in Ramallah and Tel Aviv. The trajectories of the two couples intermesh unexpectedly, attesting to the power of political reality to invade and divert the courses of people's lives. This is a powerful story of the physical and mental barriers that separate Israel and Palestine, the heavy toll that these barriers exact, and the hope - which this forceful novel defiantly suggests - to cross them. - Judith Katzir, author. Her latest novel, Dearest Anne (2008) is available from The Feminist Press ★★★ A charming, profound, and intriguing novel. I'm already eager to read more of Yonah's novels. The craftily-narrated life stories of Yonah's protagonists, Israeli and Palestinian alike, offer hope, encouraging one to believe that this life force can eventually be used towards a peaceful solution to the conflict. - Yossi Beilin, Israeli politician and scholar, co-chair of the Geneva Initiative ★★★ Though heart-wrenching, I love this book! The novel is written with an abiding appreciation for the human drama - the drama of life and death, love, family, friendship, jealousy, betrayal, and suffering. Yonah writes with great competence and sensitivity, rendering this powerful novel unlike any other. - Zehava Gal-On, former chairman of Israel's Meretz party

Download or read book Jerusalem written by Michael Avi-Yonah and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerusalem: The Saga of the Holy City is for lovers of ancient maps and world history. Jerusalem is among the most ancient of cities, a city of sanctity and refuge that the world's major religions venerate. Jerusalem is the city of faith. In 1954 three eminent Israeli archaeological scholars from the Hebrew University published an encyclopedic compendium of Jerusalem's history and geography, from prehistoric times to 1947. Now, Overlook presents this richly linen bound book with full color illustrations and a slipcase. Jerusalem: The Saga of the Holy City chronicles the rich history of this city in concise, straightforward segments. The ten color plates of maps that depict the city through the centuries are extraordinary works of art, dazzling in their detail. Two additional freestanding maps are pocketed in the back. One is a large map of the Old City, the other a map showing the city's principal Jewish, Christian, and Moslem holy places.
Book Synopsis The Music and Mythocracy of Col. Bruce Hampton by : Jerry Grillo
Download or read book The Music and Mythocracy of Col. Bruce Hampton written by Jerry Grillo and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Col. Bruce Hampton was a charismatic musical figure who launched and continued to influence the jam band genre over his fifty-plus years performing. Part bandleader, soul singer, storyteller, conjuror, poet, preacher, comedian, philosopher, and trickster, Col. Bruce actively sought out and dealt in the weird, wild underbelly of the American South. The Music and Mythocracy of Col. Bruce Hampton is neither a true biography in the Boswellian sense nor a work of cultural studies, although it combines elements of both. Even as biographer Jerry Grillo has investigated and pursued the facts, this life history of Col. Bruce reads like a novel—one full of amazing tales of a musical life lived on and off the road. Grillo’s interviews with Hampton and his bandmates, family, friends, and fans paint a fascinating portrait of an artist who fostered some of the best music ever played in America. Grillo aims not so much to document and demystify the self-mythologizing performer as to explain why his fans and friends loved him so dearly. Hampton’s family history, his place in Atlanta and southeastern musical history, his significant friendships and musical relationships, and the controversies over personnel in his Hampton Grease Band over the years are all discussed. What emerges is a portrait of a P. T. Barnum of the musical world, but one who included his audience and invited them through the tent door to share his inside joke, with plenty of joy to go around.
Book Synopsis The Morality of Terrorism by : David C. Rapoport
Download or read book The Morality of Terrorism written by David C. Rapoport and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Morality of Terrorism: Religious and Secular Justifications examines ""terrorist tradition"" from its origin in the revealed religions to its present manifestations, which are largely secular though not exclusively so. Important common themes running through all the essays are the moral climate that produces terrorism, the doctrines terrorists used to justify themselves, and the moral predicaments terrorists create. The book is organized into three parts. The essays in Part I focus on religious terror. Topics covered include the successful efforts of Jewish terrorists in the first century to provoke a popular uprising; the myths of Prometheus and Satan; and the myths and fantasies in the minds of terrorists and how these myths are related to the ramshackle world of Western civilization. Part II deals with various forms of state terror. It includes essays such as the French Reign of Terror and Nazi terrorism. Part III, devoted to rebel terror, includes essays such as terrorists' justifications and their abilities to demonstrate sincerity though suffering; and responses to rebel terrorism by communities deeply committed to protecting individual rights.

Book Synopsis On the Side of the Persecuted by : Elisabeth Kesten
Download or read book On the Side of the Persecuted written by Elisabeth Kesten and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2000-08-29 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jody Myers, Ph.D. (Coordinator, Jewish Studies Program / Professor, Department of Religious Studies, California State University, Northridge): On the Side of the Persecuted ... is a very interesting book that will engage readers on a number of different levels.I enjoyed the book very much and I recommend it wholeheartedly. On the level of its story line, On the Side of the Persecuted has a plot that keeps the reader guessing.The book is set in late 14th - early 15th century Germany and Italy, and it illustrates the daily lives of the nobility, physicians, peasants, and Jews.It opens with a brief look at a few stark incidents in the childhood of Prince Leon, the protagonist, that shape him into a persecutor of Jews.We follow Leons personal journey - which is never predictable - as he wrestles with his sins and attempts to redeem himself as a human being. ...The personal relationships ... are sensitively developed by the author, and it is easy to be drawn into Leons dilemmas, losses, and victories.It is quite a moving tale. On the Side of the Persecuted makes history come alive.The author sets the story into the late medieval period, with its groundbreaking political and religious changes: the growth of nation-states, schism within the Catholic church, the Black plague, expulsion of Jews, etc.She weaves together the story with just enough history to make the story line plausible and to make the history relevant.As a teacher of Jewish history, I can testify that the book is very good at driving home the influence on the Jews of medieval economic practices and political systems, the Church hierarchy, and Christian insecurities vis a vis heretics and Jews.It also enlightens the reader about the internal workings of the Jewish community....The author describes Leons training and occupation as a physician and we learn fascinating tidbits about medical education, the common versus professional concepts of disease and treatment, and the many religious obstacles in the way of advancing medical knowledge.This information is conveyed in short segments or details woven into the story, so it is never boring. I think this book is particularly good for teaching Jewish moral and religious concepts.Without being preachy or pedantic, the reader learns about the importance of teshuva (repentance), establishing a disciplined way of life, doing deeds of loving kindness, honoring peoples privacy, and keeping ones pride in check.The author shows that these are really quite complex and sophisticated matters. ... It is easy to get absorbed in On the Side of the Persecuted.The book conveys a great deal while telling a good story.Those knowledgeable about Judaism, as well as those less familiar, would find it insightful and thought-provoking.History buffs would enjoy it immensely.I would recommend it those of high school age and older.It would be an excellent choice for a book club, and it would also work well as a supplement to a history class or a course on Jewish ethics.It is obvious that Elisabeth Kesten crafted her book with a lot of care and painstaking research, and her work deserves wide recognition. Association of Jewish Libraries Newsletter, September/October 2001: Prince Leon of Germany, destined for greatness and power, creates a new path for himself, one that has been trod by few others before him.Born of Christian nobility, Prince Leon is gr
Book Synopsis Dealing with the Fragmented International Legal Environment by : Turki Althunayan
Download or read book Dealing with the Fragmented International Legal Environment written by Turki Althunayan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-02 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taxes are sometimes so fundamental to domestic systems that they are almost impossible to change, as when the tax system is part of a nation's majority religion or is linked to another value deeply rooted in local communities, such as housing or farming. There is a danger in the WTO, a Geneva-based entity, making decisions for people living in distant locations with regard to tax issues related to their local needs and wants. The Saudi Arabian tax system exemplifies the tension between religion, tax and trade, because tax has a role in the country's religion and is an essential part of its laws. Therefore, there is a need for maintaining a delicate balance between local needs and international commitments with respect to taxation. This book aims to show directions in which legal order can be preserved as much as possible from within each country, and yet not imposed upon them, and which will help build a peaceful bridge between local and international factors that are important to shaping the global order.

Download or read book Acharit-Hayamim written by Erica Karas and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One night in March 2012, the Ruach HaKodesh (the Holy Spirit) aroused me from sleep and told me to write a book about acharit-hayamim, which means end-times in Hebrew. I am a Messianic Jew. The Ruach HaKodesh has been leading me to scriptures about the acharit-hayamim for many months prior to giving me this message. As always, I did not question the Ruach HaKodesh. I must be obedient to the Holy One of Isra'el! Miraculously, I completed this book in three weeks with the guidance of the Ruach HaKodesh. The Ruach HaKodesh was with me the entire time. I give all praise and glory to the Holy One of Isra'el, who is the only true living G-d. Without the Holy One of Isra'el I can do nothing. I am just a worm of a vessel who will return to the dust of the ground. Hallelu-YAH!
