Jesus in Our Wombs: Embodying Modernity in a Mexican Convent By Rebecca J. Lester (editor)
2005 | 358 Pages | ISBN: 0520242688 | PDF | 1 MB
In Jesus in Our Wombs, Rebecca J. Lester takes us behind the walls of a Roman Catholic convent in central Mexico to explore the lives, training, and experiences of a group of postulants-young women in the first stage of religious training as nuns. Lester, who conducted eighteen months of fieldwork in the convent, provides a rich ethnography of these young women's journeys as they wrestle with doubts, fears, ambitions, and setbacks in their struggle to follow what they believe to be the will of God. Gracefully written, finely textured, and theoretically rigorous, this book considers how these aspiring nuns learn to experience God by cultivating an altered experience of their own female bodies, a transformation they view as a political stance against modernity. Lester explains that the Postulants work toward what they see as an "authentic" femininity-one that has been eclipsed by the values of modern society. The outcome of this process has political as well as personal consequences. The Sisters learn to understand their very intimate experiences of "the Call"-and their choices in answering it-as politically relevant declarations of self. Readers become intimately acquainted with the personalities, family backgrounds, friendships, and aspirations of the Postulants as Lester relates the practices and experiences of their daily lives. Combining compassionate, engaged ethnography with an incisive and provocative theoretical analysis of embodied selves, Jesus in Our Wombs delivers a profound analysis of what Lester calls the convent's "technology of embodiment" on multiple levels-from the phenomenological to the political.

Jesus the Mediator By William L. Brownsberger
2013 | 192 Pages | ISBN: 0813221196 | PDF | 1 MB
In Jesus the Mediator, William L. Brownsberger offers an account of the human psychology assumed by the Second Person of the Trinity in light of its salvific significance. Instead of focusing directly on classical understandings of how salvation is accomplished, this book draws attention to the Person and human nature that soteriology must presuppose. The book follows a classical psychological taxonomy (intellect, will, sensitive appetites) of human nature, presupposing a traditional articulation of the hypostatic union as background for this reflection. The book begins by considering Christ's human intellect. The distinct, but complementary, perspectives of Maurice Blondel and St. Thomas are combined to argue in favor of a Christological maximalism regarding the extent of Jesus' human knowledge from the character of his saving mission. This is followed by a two-part reflection on the gulf between finite and infinite being that is bridged by the mediator. In this vein, one chapterfocuses on Christ's active mediatorship in voluntary action, while another approaches the integration of the finite and Infinite in his personal constitution. The final chapter treats Jesus' anger as suggestive of the role that his emotional life plays in salvation.Brownsberger supports the main theses of St. Thomas's Christology, while also providing key insights from the philosophical tradition of the past two centuries and from the Christological debates of the 1940s - 1960s. Many of the discoveries of the latter became obsolete in the post-conciliar shift in theological emphases before they could be developed and applied. By means of such insights, the author seeks to draw the identity of Jesus Christ into a tight, organic unity with his redemptive mission of mediation.

Jesus Tried and True By H. H. Drake Williams lll
2013 | 190 Pages | ISBN: 161097526X | EPUB | 1 MB
Are the gospels found within the New Testament superior to others? Has the church unfairly chosen Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John while leaving out many others? Are there truly lost Christianities that would enrich our understanding of Jesus? Would modern-day seekers as well as followers of Jesus be better served by including gospels outside of the New Testament in their understanding of Jesus? Jesus Tried and True answers these questions by examining the date, source, and reception of the canonical gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John and then comparing this data with the other gospels. It assesses this information by looking within these gospels and also evaluating early church history, examining the writings of early church writers such as Papias, Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, and Eusebius. It then compares these findings with the date, source, and reception of the non-canonical gospels that have received the most attention lately such as the Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Mary, Gospel of Judas, Gospel of Philip, and Gospel of Peter. There is also a brief survey of thirteen of the most important non-canonical gospels. The survey provides an opinion on the dependence of these upon the gospels within the New Testament. Jesus Tried and True affirms the superiority of the New Testament gospels. It concludes by addressing whether non-canonical gospels are "lost Christianities" and also whether the designation "apocryphal" is appropriate for other gospels.

Jesus, with Style: Luke's Literary and Theological Genius By M Rastoin
2023 | 162 Pages | ISBN: 9042952121 | PDF | 1 MB
The essays of this book show that we do not have to choose between Luke as a theologian and Luke as a writer, between a Greek and a Jewish Luke, between a conservative Luke and an innovative and creative one, between the Luke of the Gospel and the Luke of Acts. Luke's literary qualities are universally recognized, from the sophistication of his composition and writing, to the way he combines allusions to the Scriptures of Israel and to Hellenistic culture. In both his works, Marc Rastoin argues, Luke shows his knowledge of the historiography of his time, all the while never ceasing to be a theologian. Acts, often considered to be simply an interesting account of the early church, has just as much theological value as the Gospel. It was a key ecclesiological, and thus pneumatological, decision for Luke to have written such a narrative in two parts of equal weight.

Jewish Perspectives on Hellenistic Rulers By Tessa Rajak; Sarah Pearce; James Aitken; Jennifer Dines (editors)
2008 | 380 Pages | ISBN: 0520250842 | PDF | 1 MB
This volume gathers sixteen essays on monarchy and power in the Hellenistic period and charts a new approach to Hellenistic history by focusing attention on biblical and Jewish evidence and reading that evidence in new ways. The essays consider the kings, queens, and power figures of the Hellenistic dynasties, as well as ancient Israelite kings, the Babylonian and Persian rulers of the Bible, Parthians, and Romans. The volume also represents a new kind of interpretation of the Greek Bible (Septuagint) and of the Jewish literature of the period, setting them in the context of Hellenistic political thought and practice.

Mara W. Cohen Ioannides, "Jewish Reform Movement in the US: The Evolution of the Non-Liturgical Parts of the Central Conference of American Rabbis"
English | ISBN: 3110501376 | 2017 | 216 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
This volume examines the development of the non-liturgical parts of the Central Conference of American Rabbis' Haggadot. Through an understanding of the changes in American Jewish educational patterns and the CCAR's theology, it explores how the CCAR Haggadah was changed over time to address the needs of the constituency. While there have been many studies of the Haggadah and its development over the course of Jewish history, there has been no such study of the non-liturgical parts of the Haggadah that reflect the needs of the audience it reaches. How the CCAR, the first and largest of American-born Judaisms, addressed the changing needs of its members through its literature for the Passover Seder reveals much about the development of the movement. This in turn provides for the readers of this book an understanding of how American Judaism has developed.

Jimmy Carter: The Last Interview and Other Conversations (The Last Interview Series) by Melville House
English | January 30, 2025 | ISBN: 1685891527, 9781612191534 | True EPUB | 240 pages | 0.5 MB
"We can choose to alleviate suffering. We can choose to work together for peace. We can make these changes-and we must." -Jimmy Carter

James Earl Carter Jr. came from a background of farming and military service to forge an unlikely political career, first as governor of Georgia, and then as the 39th president of the United States.
The interviews collected here-four of them never published in book form before-span the arc of Carter's long career as a politician, a public servant, and a citizen diplomat. They range from an early joust with conservative commentator William F. Buckley Jr. to his final interview, a moving joint conversation with his wife Rosalynn on the occasion of their 75th wedding anniversary ... and, of course, it includes the notorious 1976 Playboy interview wherein Carter remarked that he had "committed adultery in my heart many times."
The result is a fascinating look into the mind and soul of one of our most admirable and principled presidents ever.

Job: An Introduction and Study Guide: Where Shall Wisdom Be Found? (T&T Clark's Study Guides to the Old Testament) By Katharine J. Dell
2017 | 128 Pages | ISBN: 0567670937 | PDF | 1 MB
In the light of dramatic new interpretative approaches to the Bible this guide to Job follows not only a range of new approaches to the text but also addresses the traditional historical questions and other topical issues. Dell particularly highlights the problem of genre in understanding Job. She shows how problematic the term 'wisdom' is for this unique book, and argues that its radical sentiments earn it, rather, the title of 'parody'. Of all the biblical books it comes closest to tragedy, raising profound questions about its nature and place in the biblical canon. Job's relationship to its ancient Near Eastern counterparts, notably in ancient Mesopotamia, are also closely examined and key theological themes that characterize the book are explored. Finally different approaches - feminist, liberationist, ecological and psychological - are outlined so as to illuminate and inform our own personal readings and generate ever fresh understandings of this enigmatic text.

Johann Friedrich Herbart, Umriß pädagogischer Vorlesungen By Eva Matthes, Carsten Heinze
2003 | 168 Pages | ISBN: 3534159624 | PDF | 1 MB
Johann Friedrich Herbart (1776-1841) war Professor für Philosophie und Pädagogik, u.a. von 1809 bis 1833 als zweiter Nachfolger auf dem Lehrstuhl Kants in Königsberg. Herbart ist als Begründer der wissenschaftlichen Pädagogik anzusehen, die die zu seiner Zeit gängige pädagogische Praxis und Theorie korrigieren und der Pädagogik dabei den Status einer eigenständigen Wissenschaft verschaffen sollte. Herbarts Zugang zur wissenschaftlichen Begründung der Pädagogik besteht in der Annahme des Menschen als individuelles und freiheitsbestimmt Wesen, das an vielseitige Interessen gebunden ist. Ethik und Psychologie fundieren die Pädagogik, Bildsamkeit und Freiheit sind ihre grundlegenden Voraussetzungen, die freie sittliche Persönlichkeit ist ihr Ziel.

Johann Heinrich Pestalozzis 'Meine Nachforschungen über den Gang der Natur in der Entwicklung des Menschengeschlechts' By Dieter J Löwisch
2002 | 159 Pages | ISBN: 3534151968 | PDF | 1 MB
Die Werkinterpretationen pädagogischer Klassiker führen über eine Kombination von Quellentext und texterschließender Interpretation zu erziehungswissenschaftlichen Auseinandersetzungen mit tradiertem pädagogischen Schrifttum hin. Sie geben dem Leser sowohl Texteinstiegs- wie auch Verständnishilfen für eine eigenständige Erschließung von Quellentexten an die Hand. Die Werkinterpretationen widmen sich je nach Eigenart des Quellentextes dem Inhalt und der Absicht des Textes, den Erklärungen leitender Begriffe, der Erörterung des historischen und geistesgeschichtlichen Kontextes, der Herausarbeitung der das Werk leitenden Ideen, gegebenenfalls der Wirkungsgeschichte und der gegenwärtigen Bedeutung des Werkes. Die Bände der Reihe sind von ausgewiesenen Kennern der pädagogischen Klassiker verfasst. Pestalozzis "Nachforschungen." erweisen sich im Bereich der Pädagogik als "eines der schonungslosesten und erregendsten Werke" über den Menschen (Heinrich Ost). Sie sind eine theoretisch gemeinte anthropologische Aufklärungsschrift, die gefühlsgetragen und persönlich gehalten, oft weitschweifig und unsystematisch in der Darstellung ist. Wenngleich der Text nicht theoretisch-philosophisch orientiert ist, so wird doch eine komplexe Anthropologie für pädagogisches Handeln entwickelt, die die Handlungsbefähigung des Menschen zum Gegenstand hat. Weiterhin charakterisieren strukturbezogenes Denken, pragmatisch motiviertes Nachforschen und ein starker Aufklärungsimpetus die Ausführungen und machen zugleich ihre Zeitgeistaktualität aus.

John Cowper Powys and the Afterlife of Romanticism: Re-imagining William Wordsworth and John Keats
by Kim Wheatley
English | 2025 | ASIN: B0D2WH1Q5K | 251 Pages | True PDF | 9.57 MB

This study bridges the chronological divide between the Romantic era and the first six decades of the 20th century, interpreting John Cowper Powys (1872-1963) as a major, under-recognized contributor to the cultural transmission of Romanticism.
Kim Wheatley's John Cowper Powys and the Afterlife of Romanticism uncovers the surprising extent to which this multi-faceted Modernist-era author reworked key concerns of the Romantic poets. Wheatley shows how Powys's prose rewritings of Romantic poetry contribute to the story of the posthumous life of Romanticism, especially its environmental legacy. In particular, the book expands our understanding of the early 20th-century reception of William Wordsworth and John Keats.
Wheatley argues that Powys anticipates and presciently interrogates recent revisionary critical approaches to the Romantics, primarily materialist eco-critical approaches, and therefore invites a fresh environmentalist criticism open to the transcendental and the supernatural. Chapters range across Powys's extensive oeuvre, investigating his treatment of Wordsworth and Keats in his works of fiction, autobiographical writings, popular philosophical books, and essays of literary appreciation, including his Autobiography (1934), his four major Wessex novels - Wolf Solent (1929), A Glastonbury Romance (1932), Weymouth Sands (1934), and Maiden Castle (1936) - and his later Welsh historical novels Owen Glendower (1941) and Porius (1951). Wheatley demonstrates how Powys uniquely combines sense-based nature-worship, the leveling of animate and inanimate, and care for disabled human beings, along with mystical and magical themes, into an all-encompassing ecological vision more capacious than any imagined by the Romantics themselves.
