Описание:
Resistance brings together the voices of writers whose personal experience and testimonies of human rights abuses and conflict are transmuted into powerful poetry and memoir. The book includes the work of renowned writers and writers who have experienced torture, or prison, or loss of their homelands. Their poems and prose lay bare the realities of persecution and war and the pain of displacement. In so doing, their searing art becomes a form of protest and illumination

Описание: This vibrant collected volume considers the question: how, exactly, did the relationship between trade and religion develop historically? Examining a wide range of commercial exchanges across religious boundaries around the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic and Indian Oceans during the second millennium, it offers a variety of perspectives on this intriguing and surprisingly neglected subject.
Описание: This book is a comprehensive study of one of the most insightful and fertile but also most neglected philosophers of the twentieth century, Susanne Langer.
Failure to recognise Langer’s seminal philosophical sources has led to frequent misinterpretations and misunderstandings of her unique philosophical thought. Beginning with an overview of Langer’s life and education, this study provides a much-needed explanation of how Langer’s thinking was shaped by four seminal sources: her mentors Henry Sheffer and Alfred North Whitehead and the European philosophers Ernst Cassirer and Ludwig Wittgenstein. Langer’s ability to unite seemingly disparate fields such logic, art, and embodied cognition around the notion of symbolic form, places aesthetics not at the margins of philosophy but at its very centre. By locating Langer’s work in the broader context of major developments in twentieth-century European and American philosophy, Dengerink Chaplin shows how she was often ahead of her time.
Shedding new light on Langer as an American philosopher whose innovative thought crosses the customary boundaries between analytic and continental philosophy, this book confirms why she continues to have relevance today.

Описание: In today`s polarized context, Christians often have committed, biblical rationales for very different positions. How can Christians navigate disagreements with both truth and love? Tim Muehlhoff and Rick Langer provide lessons from conflict theory and church history on how to negotiate differing biblical convictions in order to move toward Christian unity.
Hemispheric Indigeneities is a critical anthology that brings together indigenous and nonindigenous scholars specializing in the Andes, Mesoamerica, and Canada. The overarching theme is the changing understanding of indigeneity from first contact to the contemporary period in three of the world’s major regions of indigenous peoples.
Although the terms indio, indigène, and indian only exist (in Spanish, French, and English, respectively) because of European conquest and colonization, indigenous peoples have appropriated or changed this terminology in ways that reflect their shifting self-identifications and aspirations. As the essays in this volume demonstrate, this process constantly transformed the relation of Native peoples in the Americas to other peoples and the state. This volume’s presentation of various factors—geographical, temporal, and cross-cultural—provide illuminating contributions to the burgeoning field of hemispheric indigenous studies.
Hemispheric Indigeneities explores indigenous agency and shows that what it means to be indigenous was and is mutable. It also demonstrates that self-identification evolves in response to the relationship between indigenous peoples and the state. The contributors analyze the conceptions of what indigeneity meant, means today, or could come to mean tomorrow.

John Langer shares insights and wisdom from the Word
The choices we make in life can result in joy or sadness, depending on the resulting actions. With candor, John Langer describes some of the decisions he has made, a few with disasterous outcomes that only God's miraculous intervention could resolve. With insight, John shares the lessons he has learned, those teaching moments when God reveals more of Himself to us.
God has given us wisdom in how to live through the example of His Son, Jesus. Through various biblical stories, John shares the truths God taught him about making better decisions, and how to recover when we stumble. Yes, God Does Teach will open your eyes to seek God in all you do
"John is a man of great faith..." -Mike Ostblom, Yutan, NE
"This book will make you yearn for a stronger walk with God, like it does me." -James Langer, oldest son of John Langer
Make me to know your ways, O LORD; teach me your
paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the
God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long.
(Psalm 25:4-5)

Описание:
When you hear God and obey, He'll do remakable things
Have you ever been on a plane that had an engine blow out and realize quickly that this might be it, that you might die? Have you ever had a gun aimed at your head or been asked by God to give all your money away? Have you ever heard the voice of God tell you to go places where you would be asked to do things that seemed crazy at the time?
God put John Langer in those very situations and in Yes, God Does Speak, John tells why he did these "crazy" things. Crazy or not, John's stories will cause you to want a much deeper relationship with the God you love. But if you don't currently know and love God, you'll soon learn that He is waiting to know you and to speak to you.
God is alive and well and the words of this book will shake your view of God. It will open new possibilities to a better relationship with Him than you ever thought possible. You will realize you can hear God speak.
For those who have wondered if God still speaks today, the answer is yes He does. This book will help you enter into God's presence at a place where He's been waiting to speak to you.
