Download or read book Black Inked Pearl written by Ruth H. Finnegan and published by Imagination and the Human Spirit. This book was released on 2015 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An epic romance about the naïve Irish girl Kate and her mysterious lover, whom she rejects in panic and then spends her life seeking. After the opening rejection, Kate recalls her Irish upbringing, her convent education, and her coolly-controlled professional success, before her tsunami-like realisation beside an African river of the emotions she had concealed from herself and that she passionately and consumingly loved the man she had rejected.Searching for him she visits the kingdom of beasts, a London restaurant, an old people's home, back to the misty Donegal Sea, the heavenly archives, Eden, and hell, where at agonising cost she saves her dying love. They walk together toward heaven, but at the gates he walks past leaving her behind in the dust. The gates close behind him. He in turn searches for her and at last finds her in the dust, but to his fury (and renewed hurt) he is not ecstatically recognised and thanked. And the gates are still shut.On a secret back way to heaven guided by a little beetle, Kate repeatedly saves her still scornful love, but at the very last, despite Kate's fatal inability with numbers and through an ultimate sacrifice, he saves her from the precipice and they reach heaven. Kate finally realises that although her quest for her love was not vain, in the end she had to find herself - the unexpected pearl.The novel, born in dreams, is interlaced with the ambiguity between this world and another, and increasingly becomes more poetic, riddling and dreamlike as the story unfolds. The epilogue alludes to the key themes of the novel - the eternity of love and the ambiguity between dream and reality.

Download or read book Blackthorn Poems written by Ruth Finnegan and published by . This book was released on 2022-04-06 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ruth Finnegan's prize-winning epic romance novel, The Black Inked Pearl, was inspired by her own dreams. Perhaps these dreams grew from her subconscious or were somehow shreds of memories from past lives, dating back to the Middle Ages or beyond. Either way, heroine Kate was born: a young Irish girl who runs from her mysterious lover, changes her mind, and, in a heartbreaking search, spends the rest of her life trying to find his love again. The poems show us the torments, delights, and travails of love as Kate travels through them - most searingly perhaps in the image of the locked- up heart or, in a different way, the agonising sudden doubt of the last line of "If". They can bring it home to ourselves as well as we, too, experience the highs and lows of passion. And more than this. Like other poetry in the mystic tradition they carry deep metaphoric weight too, speaking not just of human life and love but, through them, of the mysteries of eternity and of our human journey within it. Love may be the sweetest, simplest, thing in the world, but as poignantly traced in these moving poems, its path can be long and hard.

Book Synopsis Oral-Scribal Dimensions of Scripture, Piety, and Practice by : Werner H. Kelber
Download or read book Oral-Scribal Dimensions of Scripture, Piety, and Practice written by Werner H. Kelber and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 2008 a conference was convened at Rice University that brought together experts in the three monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The papers discussed at the conference are presented here, revised and updated. The thirteen contributions comprise the keynote address by John Miles Foley; three essays on Judaism and the Hebrew Bible; three on the New Testament; three on the Qur'an; and two summarizing pieces, by the Africanist Ruth Finnegan and the Islamicist William Graham respectively. The central thesis of the book states that sacred Scripture was experienced by the three faiths less as a text contained between two covers and a literary genre, and far more as an oral phenomenon. In developing the performative, recitative aspects of the three religions, the authors directly or by implication challenge their distinctly textual identities. Instead of viewing the three faiths as quintessential religions of the book, these writers argue that the religions have been and continue to be appropriated not only as written but also very much as oral authorities, with the two media interpenetrating and mutually influencing each other in myriad ways.
Download or read book Live Literature written by Ellen Wiles and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-21 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking book explores the phenomenal growth of live literature in the digitalizing 21st century. Wiles asks why literary events appeal and matter to people, and how they can transform the ways in which fiction is received and valued. Readers are immersed in the experience of two contrasting events: a major literary festival and an intimate LGBTQ+ salon. Evocative scenes and observations are interwoven with sharp critical analysis and entertaining conversations with well-known author-performers, reader-audiences, producers, critics, and booksellers. Wiles’s experiential literary ethnography represents an innovative and vital contribution, not just to literary research, but to research into the value of cultural experience across art forms. This book probes intersections between readers and audiences, writers and performers, texts and events, bodies and memories, and curation and reception. It addresses key literary debates from cultural appropriation to diversity in publishing, the effects of social media, and the quest for authenticity. It will engage a broad audience, from academics and producers to writers and audiences.
Download or read book Tattoo written by Makiko Kuwuhara and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1830s, missionaries in French Polynesia sought to suppress the traditional art of tattooing, because they believed it to be a barbaric practice. More than 150 years later, tattooing is once again thriving in French Polynesia. This engrossing book documents the meaning of tattooing in contemporary French Polynesian society. As a permanent inscription, a tattoo makes a powerful statement about identity and culture. In this case, its resurgence is part of a vibrant cultural revival movement. Kuwahara examines the complex significance of the art, including its relationship to gender, youth culture, ethnicity and prison life. She also provides unique photographic evidence of the sophisticated techniques and varied forms that characterize French Polynesian tattooing today.Winner of The Japanese Society for Oceanic Studies Award 2005.
