Book Synopsis Comics and Sacred Texts by : Assaf Gamzou
Download or read book Comics and Sacred Texts written by Assaf Gamzou and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributions by Ofra Amihay, Madeline Backus, Samantha Baskind, Elizabeth Rae Coody, Scott S. Elliott, Assaf Gamzou, Susan Handelman, Leah Hochman, Leonard V. Kaplan, Ken Koltun-Fromm, Shiamin Kwa, Samantha Langsdale, A. David Lewis, Karline McLain, Ranen Omer-Sherman, Joshua Plencner, and Jeffrey L. Richey Comics and Sacred Texts explores how comics and notions of the sacred interweave new modes of seeing and understanding the sacral. Comics and graphic narratives help readers see religion in the everyday and in depictions of God, in transfigured, heroic selves as much as in the lives of saints and the meters of holy languages. Coeditors Assaf Gamzou and Ken Koltun-Fromm reveal the graphic character of sacred narratives, imagining new vistas for both comics and religious texts. In both visual and linguistic forms, graphic narratives reveal representational strategies to encounter the sacred in all its ambivalence. Through close readings and critical inquiry, these essays contemplate the intersections between religion and comics in ways that critically expand our ability to think about religious landscapes, rhetorical practices, pictorial representation, and the everyday experiences of the uncanny. Organized into four sections—Seeing the Sacred in Comics; Reimagining Sacred Texts through Comics; Transfigured Comic Selves, Monsters, and the Body; and The Everyday Sacred in Comics—the essays explore comics and graphic novels ranging from Craig Thompson’s Habibi and Marvel’s X-Men and Captain America to graphic adaptions of religious texts such as 1 Samuel and the Gospel of Mark. Comics and Sacred Texts shows how claims to the sacred are nourished and concealed in comic narratives. Covering many religions, not only Christianity and Judaism, this rare volume contests the profane/sacred divide and establishes the import of comics and graphic narratives in disclosing the presence of the sacred in everyday human experience.

Download or read book iNTELLYJELLY-Junior_Apr'21 edition. written by Animesh Tiwari and published by Prerna Publication. This book was released on with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once, there was a colony of ants who worked very hard to make an anthill. One day, it rained heavily, and the rainwater entered the anthill. The ants were hopeless and gave up on what they thought was their destiny approaching them. One of the ants looked out of the anthill and noticed a giant tree adjoining the top of the anthill. He called to the other ants to follow him, but they refused. The ant alone crawled up the tree trunk all the way to a leaf. It bit on the leaf, and the leaf lightly floated down to the ground, safely bringing the ant down as well. The clever ant looked back at the ruined anthill and wished that his friends had not given up so soon. This month's iNTELLYJELLY edition is designed to have our children learn the very same fundamental, as Sir Dhirubhai Ambani has put it, 'I am deaf to the word NO.'
