Описание: The central theme of the book is the relationship between a hero or cultural icon and the cultures in which he or she is venerated. On one hand, a hero cannot remain a static character if he or she is to appeal to diverse and dynamic communities. On the other hand, a traditional icon should retain some basic features in order to remain recognizable. Joshua son of Nun is an iconic figure of Israelite cultural memory described at length in the Hebrew Bible and venerated in numerous religious traditions. This book uses Joshua as a test case. It tackles reception and redaction history, focusing on the use and development of Joshua’s character and the deployment of his various images in the narratives and texts of several religious traditions. I look for continuities and discontinuities between traditions, as well as cross-pollination and polemic. The first two chapters look at Joshua’s portrayal in biblical literature, using both synchronic (literary analysis) as well as diachronic (Überlieferungsgeschichte and redaction/source criticism) methodologies. The other four chapters focus on the reception history of Joshua in Second Temple and Hellenistic Jewish literature, in the medieval (Arabic) Samaritan Book of Joshua, in the New Testament and Church Fathers, and in Rabbinic literature.

Описание: With a world-vibrating whoosh, a vast saucer-shaped spaceship dipped down through the atmosphere, blotting out the afternoon sun. Ian turned and there she was: Jane, his wife who had passed away 15 years ago... Once upon a time people wore t-shirts that said "Ian is God." In this century, though, Ian Better, 1970s guitar god, is old, alone, and about to lose everything he owns. In order to reclaim his life, Ian has to reunite Blue Smoke, his legendary band, and play a few concerts. But then there were flying saucers and dead wives and everything tilted into mythic confusion. On tour in a world where gods, aliens, imaginary friends, dead relatives, and cartoon coyotes are part of everyday life, the aging members of Blue Smoke discover the government's secret archive, history's greatest pot farms, the Land of the Dead, a town without rock'n'roll, and the secrets of time travel. Legendary Blue Smoke is a crazy psychedelic trip through worlds both perplexing and profound. "Imagination, Insight and the Third I - Irreverence. Phil Farber serves as the hyphen between Science and Fantasy; the 'n' between Rock and Roll. Along with style and wit, the secret ingredient in his prose is magic galore." -Paul Krassner, author of Confessions of a Raving, Unconfined Nut: Misadventures in the Counterculture

Описание: We all know the phrase "When God gives you lemons, make lemonade." But how exactly are we supposed to do that? Do we really need a recipe book to learn how to make lemonade? YES In this soon-to-be-bestseller, Dr. Neil Farber, author of The Blame Game: The Complete Guide to Blaming, reveals 101 recipes to make metaphorical lemonade. Making Lemonade is a guide to turning "bad" things into "good". Lemons have been given a bad rap; sometimes lemons are blessings in disguise. Just like our "problems", lemons aren't inherently good or bad; it's our perception and preconceived ideas that make them so. Each chapter of Making Lemonade describes an apparent negative (lemon), lists ingredients and preparation instructions, and shows you the positive outcome (lemonade). Making Lemonade provides you with the passion, inspiration, knowledge, and practical tools to start on a path to positivity.
