Book Synopsis Elevating the Race by : Albert George Miller
Download or read book Elevating the Race written by Albert George Miller and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a minister in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, an army chaplain, a college professor, and a prolific writer, Theophilus Gould Steward was one of America's leading black intellectuals during the half-century following Emancipation. He was not only a theologian deeply committed to challenging his church's outlook, he also epitomized postbellum efforts to create an African American civil society through religious, educational, and social institutions integral to citizenship. Steward actively constructed a theological discourse that challenged both black and white religious and secular institutions, yet his tenacious pursuit of high standards often led him into conflict with the very community he served. A. G. Miller takes a new look at this key figure in African American history to establish Steward's place among the most influential thinkers and activists of the late nineteenth century. Augmenting what is already known about Steward's life with a thoughtful combination of intellectual and social history, Miller presents Steward's ideas within the context of the social, political, economic, and religious trends of his day. Miller examines Steward's accomplishments and writings--including his unpublished manuscripts and his overlooked Victorian novel--to assess the ideas that he left to posterity and to consider how they shaped his times. The book devotes individual chapters to the key themes that dominated Steward's life: African American education, reconciling theology with modern science, the intersection of rational theology and moral virtues, the contradictions of race, the role of women in African American civil society, and Steward's views on the military and imperialism. With great insight and clarity, Miller discloses in a new and original way the rich life and thought of this extraordinary man. His study is both a groundbreaking analysis of Steward's legacy and an important contribution to the history of American religious thought. The Author: A. G. Miller is assistant professor of religion and Nord Faculty Fellow at Oberlin College and an ordained minister in the Pentecostal Church.
Book Synopsis The Phenomenology of Religious Life by : Martin Heidegger
Download or read book The Phenomenology of Religious Life written by Martin Heidegger and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-26 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Scrupulously prepared and eminently readable,” this volume presents Heidegger’s most important lectures on religion from 1920–21 (Choice). In the early 1920s, Martin Heidegger delivered his famous lecture course, Introduction to the Phenomenology of Religion, at the University of Freiburg. He also prepared notes for a course on The Philosophical Foundations of Medieval Mysticism that was never delivered. Though he never prepared this material for publication, it represents a significant evolution in his philosophical perspective. Heidegger’s engagements with Aristotle, Neoplatonism, St. Paul, Augustine, and Martin Luther give readers a sense of what phenomenology would come to mean in the mature expression of his thought. Heidegger reveals an impressive display of theological knowledge, protecting Christian life experience from Greek philosophy and defending Paul against Nietzsche.

Book excerpt: An arrow narrowly misses Salome but prods her into rescuing a girl from a Roman centurion and pulls her back into intrigue that she tried to leave behind. Once again, she wrestles with conflicting desires: obeying and honoring her family, sabotaging the Romans, and helping the Zealots and Parthians. She also continues to fight her feelings for old flame Nathaniel. Salome is reconnected with Nathaniel when she becomes a secret messenger for the Zealots. Nathaniel also continues to support the cause against the Romans, and as he and Salome cross paths in Nazareth, they rekindle a deep friendship while their marriages bring little comfort— and Salome still struggles with the pressure to be good in order to be loved. Now a mature woman and mother with a stronger sense of identity, Salome faces questions of faith and family she once tried to ignore. As she and Nathaniel navigate their own regrets and dreams, loyalties are tested and tensions mount in the community as new Messianic figures arise in revolt against the brutal Roman regime. A larger battle for freedom rages as Salome and Nathaniel become mentors and gain more profound perspectives of each other. The Good Wife is the second book in a trilogy that’s set in biblical times yet has universal and modern-day relevance. From shame, fear, and regret to love, integrity, and perseverance, Salome continues on a path where love is not necessarily tied to goodness.
Book Synopsis Christian Spirituality by : Arthur Holder
Download or read book Christian Spirituality written by Arthur Holder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-09-10 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Spirituality: The Classics is a unique and comprehensive guide to thirty key Christian spirituality texts. Ranging from Origen and Augustine to Jonathan Edwards, Thérèse of Lisieux and Thomas Merton, it offers a view of the texts which is founded in scholarship, but which also presents them as living documents that invite- even compel -contemplative reflection and existential response. Each chapter briefly describes the classic text’s author and audience, gives a synopsis of its contents, suggests some of its influence in history, and then explores aspects of the text’s meaning for readers today. Key themes include: What is the meaning of life? How can human beings find truth? How can they discover who they really are? How can they live together in peace? How can they live more fully in God’s presence in this world and be united with God in the world to come? The scholars who have written these chapters are all experts on their respective topics, but they wear their learning lightly. Anyone wishing to discover the riches of Christian spirituality will find this the ideal introduction and should be able to progress to a deeper understanding of the texts themselves.

Book Synopsis Seize the Trident by : Douglas R. Burgess
Download or read book Seize the Trident written by Douglas R. Burgess and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2005 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The superliners of the Gilded Age so eclipsed their predecessors in size, splendor, and speed that they remain potent symbols of elegance, arrogance, and industrial might nearly a century after the last ones were built. They carried a flood of immigrants to America even as they reflected and magnified the frightening forces that were pushing Europe blindly into World War I. In a crowning irony, Germany's prize liners were used against her to carry American doughboys to the trenches of Europe." "Seize the Trident is a parable of imperial ambitions and ultimate tragedy set against the ostentatious backdrop of the Edwardian age, when dreams had no limits and the only standard of supremacy was excess."--BOOK JACKET.
