Download or read book Alpha to Omega written by Alexander Humez and published by David R Godine Pub. This book was released on 1983 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first offering of this beloved duo, the Humez brothers take on the twenty-four letters of the Greek alphabet (plus those elusive "dead letters"), and through the device of the abecedarium bring the Greek culture and thought to life. From acoustics to zygote, they provide not only an engaging romp through the Greek language but also a series of glimpses into the world and man's place in it. The historical, philosophical, mathematical, cosmological, and political (all Greek words) approaches we take toward life, its description, elucidation, and evaluation, are all mainly derived from several thousand years of Greek culture. The vocabulary of language is a mirror of the minds of its speakers, and in this book we see the first reflections of the modern world.

Book Synopsis The Mystery of the Alpha and Omega by : John H. Shumaker
Download or read book The Mystery of the Alpha and Omega written by John H. Shumaker and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2007-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do the Scriptures really identify who the Messiah is and what His role is to be? Author John Shumaker takes an in-depth look into the original Hebrew Scriptures in his book The Mystery of the Alpha and Omega and reveals something hidden for our discovery. Proverbs 25: 2 says, It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter. (NASB). God has hidden in the original Hebrew text the role of the Messiah?the role that Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) fulfilled to the very letter recorded in the original text. In his book The Mystery of the Alpha and Omega, Shumaker takes us to eighteen of these verses and reveals to us something hidden within the text of the Tanakh (Hebrew title of the Old Testament) and revealed through the person of the Messiah Yeshua in the New Testament. This is truly a scriptural revelation!
Download or read book Alpha Beta written by John Man and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-10-31 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea behind the alphabet - that language with all its wealth of meaning can be recorded with a few meaningless signs - is an extraordinary one. So extraordinary, in fact, that it has occurred only once in human history: in Egypt about 4000 years ago. Alpha Beta follows the emergence of the western alphabet as it evolved into its present form, contributing vital elements to our sense of identity along the way. The Israelites used it to define their God, the Greeks to capture their myths, the Romans to display their power. And today, it seems on the verge of yet another expansion through the internet. Tracking the alphabet as it leaps from culture to culture, John Man weaves discoveries, mysteries and controversies into a story of fundamental historical significance.

Book Synopsis The Letter and the Cosmos by : Laurence de Looze
Download or read book The Letter and the Cosmos written by Laurence de Looze and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From our first ABCs to the Book of Revelation’s statement that Jesus is “the Alpha and Omega,” we see the world through our letters. More than just a way of writing, the alphabet is a powerful concept that has shaped Western civilization and our daily lives. In The Letter and the Cosmos, Laurence de Looze probes that influence, showing how the alphabet has served as a lens through which we conceptualize the world and how the world, and sometimes the whole cosmos, has been perceived as a kind of alphabet itself. Beginning with the ancient Greeks, he traces the use of alphabetic letters and their significance from Plato to postmodernism, offering a fascinating tour through Western history. A sharp and entertaining examination of how languages, letterforms, orthography, and writing tools have reflected our hidden obsession with the alphabet, The Letter and the Cosmos is illustrated with copious examples of the visual and linguistic phenomena which de Looze describes. Read it, and you’ll never look at the alphabet the same way again.

Book Synopsis The Message of the Book of Revelation by : Charles T. Chapman
Download or read book The Message of the Book of Revelation written by Charles T. Chapman and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no book in the history of the world has been as misunderstood and misappropriated as the Book of Revelation. Those people versed in the methods of scholarly interpretation (exegesis) may understand the symbolism of this work, but what about the general reader? How is he or she to know whether this book is being soundly interpreted or misinterpreted? Father Chapman writes for the general reader, for the many who need to understand the truth of The Message of the Book of Revelation -both its historical message and its message for Christians today. He explains, phrase by phrase, in clear, direct terms what has been learned about the genre of writings called apocalyptic literature - of which Revelation is a part - and how that knowledge can be properly used to interpret the images and symbols of Revelation. Faithful to the teaching of the Church, this explanation of Revelation "reveals" this biblical book to be an inspiring, hope-filled, poetic portrayal of the triumph of Christ and his followers over the powers of evil. The Rev. Charles T. Chapman, Jr., was raised and educated as a Southern Baptist. He joined the Episcopal Church in 1980 and was ordained priest in 1987. He holds degrees from Union University and The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, with further training at the Episcopal Theological Seminary of the Southwest. With Bible teaching and writing among his principle interests, Fr. Chapman offers this commentary in the hopes that reason and scholarship can shed light on a biblical work where baseless, extravagant imagination has long cast its shadow.
Book Synopsis A B C Et Cetera by : Alexander Humez
Download or read book A B C Et Cetera written by Alexander Humez and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 1985 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the Roman alphabet and the people who used it as a medium for the transmission of their civilization. Primarily, this means the Romans and their Italic subjects, speakers of Latin who disseminated the language, and the culture of which it was an expression, throughout Europe and the coasts of the Mediterranean Sea. As speakers, readers, and writers of English, we are greatly indebted to the long line of purveyors of Latin in its various forms. When words are borrowed, concepts come with them. So, if we have borrowed a wide variety of Latin words, it follows that we have also borrowed a great deal of the cultural stuff that they encase. This book takes a look at what the authors consider to be some of the more intriguing cultural/linguistic goodies that have crept willy-nilly into the English language over the ages from the Latin cornucopia. - Preamble.
