Описание:
Born in the late 19th century, jazz gained mainstream popularity during a volatile period of racial segregation and gender inequality. It was in these adverse conditions that jazz performers discovered the power of dress as a visual tool used to defy mainstream societal constructs, shaping a new fashion and style aesthetic. Fashion and Jazz is the first study to identify the behaviours, signs and meanings that defined this newly evolving subculture.
Drawing on fashion studies and cultural theory, the book provides an in-depth analysis of the social and political entanglements of jazz and dress, with individual chapters exploring key themes such as race, class and gender. Including a wide variety of case studies, ranging from Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald to Louis Armstrong and Chet Baker, it presents a critical and cultural analysis of jazz performers as modern icons of fashion and popular style.
Addressing a number of previously underexplored areas of jazz culture, such as modern dandyism and the link between drug use and glamorous dress, Fashion and Jazz provides a fascinating history of fashion's dialogue with African-American art and style. It is essential reading for students of fashion, cultural studies, African-American studies and history.

Описание: James Wm. McClendon, Jr. (1924a2000) was the most important "baptist" theologian of the twentieth century. McClendon crafted a systematic theology that grew out of the immediacy of preaching the text, refused to succumb to the pressures of individualism, and lamented the stunted public witness of a fractured Protestant ecclesiology. This third and final volume of his Collected Works provides a compendium of McClendons sermonsaexamples of what he called "first-order" theology in action. While McClendon was predominantly known as a philosophical theologian, he persisted in the belief that the theology that mattered most occurred in ordinary congregations seeking to bear faithful witness in the world. The sermons in this collectionamany rarely seen and never before publishedaprovide an important window into McClendons own theology and witness to his convictions about theologys purpose and end. This third volume serves as an invaluable resource for ministers, students, and theologians who seek a fuller understanding of McClendons "baptist" theology.

Описание: James Wm. McClendon, Jr. was the most important "baptist" theologian of the twentieth century. McClendon crafted a systematic theology that refused to succumb to the pressures of individualism, grew out of the immediacy of preaching the text, and lamented the stunted public witness of a fractured Protestant ecclesiology. This two-volume set mixes previously unpublished and published lectures and essays with rare and little known works to form a representative collection of the essential themes of McClendons work. The first volume focuses on the philosophical and theological shifts leading to McClendons articulation of the baptist vision. The second volume specifically elucidates the more philosophical themes that informed McClendons work, including ways in which these themes had immediate theological import. Taken together, the set provides the most comprehensive presentation of McClendons work now available, revealing the sustained and systematic character of his vision over the course of his life. These two volumes will provide scholars, preachers, and students with McClendons radical, narrative, and connective theology.

The sixth member of their walking tour is a law colleague, Gillian Sargent.

When Gillian finds an injured dog along the roadside and wants to keep it for her own, the idyllic summer trip of sisterly bonding and wine-drinking turns dark and dangerous. Who else is after this dog? Why is she so special? And what secret is Gillian Sargent keeping so close to her chest that her co-workers call her 'The Girl in the Empty Dress?'

All she wants is to unwind in the golden light of France. But France has a few tricks up its sleeves again. Thanks to a sad, dirty little dog and a woman with too many secrets.

Описание: It's the phone call that every parent dreads. When the ringing awakened Jackie Carpenter on that black Georgia night, she found everything she had ever known or believed or trusted ripped from her. Jackie's gentle son Jason was in jail, accused of murder, and Jason's wife and six year old son were shaken and helpless. What began as a nightmare grew into an ordeal. The story caught fire, grabbed headlines, and polarized a community. As she spiraled deeper into night, Jackie found herself adrift. Jason sat, terrified, in jail. Jackie began to fight with the ferociousness of a mama tiger, to save her sanity, her family, and hold on to her faith. What Jackie found in the darkness was a treasure that now empowers her. For though she was lost, she was never alone. And her message is now one of hope, and of the eternal light that cuts through the darkest night.
