What is the church to make of the many new expressions of worship springing up across the nation and the world? A gathering of academic theologians, New Worshiping Community practitioners, and leaders from within Presbyterian councils met at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary to start the conversation. New Worshiping Communities documents those discussions and provides theological and biblical foundations to the 1001 New Worshiping Communities movement in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).

Описание:
[Wright's] penetrating and ravishingly gorgeous lyrical poems are at once classically philosophical and freshly revealing (Booklist)
Never has Charles Wright's vision been more closely aligned with the work of the ancient Chinese painters and writers who inform his poetry than in his newest collection. Wright's short lyrics, in Charles Simic's words, achieve a level of eloquence where the reader says to himself, if this is not wisdom, I don't know what is (The New York Review of Books). The poems in Buffalo Yoga are pristine examples of the Tennessee poet's deft, painterly touch-crows in a caterwaul are scored like black notes in the bare oak-and his oblique, expansive, and profound interrogation of mortality, as in the title sequence, where the soul is a rhythmical knot. / That form unties. Or reties.

In this incisive, satirical collection of three autobiographical novels--which the New York Times hailed as "malevolent, bitter, glittering"--by Charles Wright, whom Ishmael Reed hailed as "Richard Pryor on paper," a young, black intellectual from the South struggles to make it in New York City--with a foreword by Mat Johnson.
As fresh and poignant as when originally published in 1963 to 1973, The Messenger, The Wig, and Absolutely Nothing to Get Alarmed About form Charles Wright's remarkable New York City trilogy.
By turns brutally funny and starkly real, these three classic American novels create a memorable portrait of a young, working-class, black intellectual--a man caught between the bohemian elite of Greenwich Village and the dregs of male prostitution and drug abuse. Wright's fiction is searingly original in bringing to life a special time, a special place, and the remarkable story of a man living in two worlds.
With a foreword by acclaimed novelist Mat Johnson, this updated edition not only reintroduces Wright's fans to his darkly humorous, satirical, and eloquent prose, but also brings his unique literary talent to a host of new readers, as it shines a spotlight once again on this important writer--a writer whose work is so crucial to our times.
"Reading Wright is a steep, stinging pleasure."--Dwight Garner
