Описание: What is `truth` in today`s freewheeling, pluralistic world, without certainties or fixed ideas? Does it lie in the Reason of Descartes and Kant? Is it Derrida`s idea of an event, still being made? Or, according to Nietzsche, an ensemble of fictions? Internationally renowned philosopher John D. Caputo explores truth in the postmodern age.

Описание:
Do you wish you could feel closer and more connected to your mom, dad, or other family members? Do you have a family member who served in the military, who perhaps saw war, and wondered what their experience was really like? Do you suspect there are traumas in their past that might be affecting their ability to open up? If yes, Flying with Dad will be an eye-opening read. At 10, she thought Dad's bite was worse than his bark. At 20, they fought about race. At 60, she struggled to talk with him about what mattered. In 2008, when it was almost too late, one phone call changed everything. Flying With Dad is the true story of a daughter, a father, and how his stories of World War II bridged their worlds. As a father, Michael Caputo could be distant and brusque. Growing up, Yvonne and her siblings had a roof over their heads and food on the table. But what Yvonne wanted was a deeper connection with her Dad. In Flying With Dad, Yvonne Caputo charts her journey to her father through the re-telling of why he went from repairing to flying planes, how heavy German flak led to post-war nightmares, and why he suffered guilt over one particular bombing run. As she learned to meet him where he was, instead of where she wanted him to be, the result was an intimacy, a deep abiding respect, and a no-regrets final goodbye. Even after his death, Yvonne's relationship with this ordinary and extraordinary man continues to blossom: in the milky vapor trails in the sky, the blooms of the Christmas Cactus, and the Blue Jay that appears just as she thinks of another question she'd like to ask her dad. A DAUGHTER. A FATHER. AND THE HIDDEN GIFTS IN HIS STORIES FROM WORLD WAR II.
Flying with Dad is the moving story of a daughter striving to understand her father and him sharing his harrowing experiences with her as a B-24 navigator in WWII.
James Bradley, author, Flags of Our Fathers
Yvonne Caputo's remarkable, extended 'interview' of her late father, World War II B-24 Navigator Captain Michael Caputo, is a nuanced and authentic window on one man's personal experience of combat. Beyond enriching the historical record, father and daughter offer welcome insight on the veteran's humility and stoicism, and how character framed the combatant's experience of mortal adversity but is also forever changed by it.
Brian Mahoney, World War II researcher and co-author of Reluctant Witness: Memoirs for the Last Year of the European Airwar 1944- 1945
What grabs you in this engrossing family saga is the fierce connection forged slowly between father and daughter - a long, solo journey of small steps carried out with sensitivity and guts. Captivating The man who loved a good story would appreciate what his daughter has done in Flying with Dad - as readers will too.
Jane LaTour, author of Sisters in the Brotherhoods: Working Women Organizing for Equality in New York City
Having worked with thousands of clients who long for even one deep conversation with their parent, grandparent, or uncle about their World War II experience, this book will feel very relatable. For anyone who had a difficult relationship with their silent generation dad, this will be a comfortable and comforting read. If you're lucky enough to have a World War II relative still living, this might give you the courage to ask the questions you've been wanting to ask.
William L. (Bill) Beigel, author of Buried on the Battlefield: Not My Boy
For anyone who has an interest in the events leading up to and including World War II and beyond, this superb book is a must read. Yvonne Caputo brings everything to life in this very moving story.

Описание:
A comprehensive archaeological study of the ceramic finds from a house in Amheida The House of Serenos: Part I: The Pottery (Amheida V) is a comprehensive full-color catalog and analysis of the ceramic finds from the late antique house of a local notable and adjacent streets in Amheida. It is the fifth book in the Amheida series. Amheida is located in the western part of the Dakhla oasis, 3.5 km south of the medieval town of El-Qasr. Known in Hellenistic and Roman times as Trimithis, Amheida became a polis by 304 CE and was a major administrative center of the western part of the oasis for the whole of the fourth century. The home’s owner was one Serenos, a member of the municipal elite and a Trimithis city councillor, as we know from documents found in the house. His house is particularly well preserved with respect to floor plan, relationship to the contemporary urban topography, and decoration, including domestic display spaces plastered and painted with subjects drawn from Greek mythology and scenes depicting the family that owned the house. The archaeology from the site also reveals the ways in which the urban space changed over time, as Serenos’s house was built over and expanded into some previously public spaces. The house was probably abandoned around or soon after 370 CE. The pottery analyzed in this volume helps to refine the relationship of the archaeological layers belonging to the elite house and the layers below it; it also sheds light on the domestic and economic life of the household and region, from cooking and dining to the management of a complex agricultural economy in which ceramics were the most common form of container for basic commodities. The book will be of interest to specialists interested in ceramology, Roman Egypt, and the material culture, social history, and economy of late antiquity.
Описание: After an important statement entitled "What is Radical Theology?" written as an introduction to the present volume, in which Caputo spells out what he means by radical theology, what follows is a series of recently essays addressed to audiences both academic and non-academic. Under the flag of what he calls a "radicalization of the Catholic Principle," he offers an account of the resistance Catholicism throws up against its own idea of tradition and places it in juxtaposition Tillich's "Protestant Principle." Several essay examine the implications of Derrida for theology. Caputo argues that Derrida, who is his "favorite unofficial theologian" and "a devilish knight of faith," is a perfect model for radical theology. Another piece takes up the unorthodox interest continental philosophers show in Augustine. Caputo addresses two camps of critics here, some charging him with being an atheist, insinuating that radical theology does not take "real" religion seriously, while the other accuses him of not being an atheist, of just being Augustine redux. One point running through all the essays is that, unlike modernist dismissals of religion, as a form of deconstruction, radical theology does not debunk but reinvents the theological tradition. Radical theology is a double deconstruction - of supernatural theology on the one hand and of transcendental reason on the other, and therefore of the settled distinctions between the religious and the secular. He also address the challenge for radical theology to earn a spot in the curriculum, given that the "radical" makes it suspect among the confessional seminaries and the "theology" renders it suspect among the university seminars. There is a presentation of radical political theology which discusses theology in Trumptime. Another essay describes radical theology as a radicalization of hope, and the whole thing concludes with a eulogy to Derrida, written shortly after his death (2004), "to Jacques, who loosened my tongue," Caputo says.

I felt the same way. So I created this Midwest native plant guide to help you easily discover a native plant to suit your garden needs.

This makes the cumbersome task of garden planning much easier. My hand-painted illustrations and maps accompany each entry, making this a unique and lovely addition to your garden book collection. You can help save the bees, and you get flowers in return. How amazing is that?

Historians of religion face complex interpretive issues when examining religious texts, practices, and experiences. Faithful Narratives presents the work of twelve eminent scholars whose research has exemplified compelling strategies for negotiating the difficulties inherent in this increasingly important area of historical inquiry. The chapters range chronologically from Late Antiquity to modern America and thematically from the spirituality of near eastern monks to women’s agency in religion, considering familiar religious communities alongside those on the margins and bringing a range of spiritual and religious practices into historical focus.Focusing on Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, the essays address matters central to the study of religion in history, in particular texts and traditions of authority, interreligious discourse, and religious practice and experience. Some examine mainstream communities and traditions, others explore individuals who crossed religious or confessional boundaries, and still others study the peripheries of what is considered orthodox religious tradition. Encompassing a wide geographical as well as chronological scope, Faithful Narratives illustrates the persistence of central themes and common analytical challenges for historians working in all periods.Contributors: Peter Brown, Princeton University; Nina Caputo, University of Florida; Carlos Eire, Yale University; Susanna Elm, University of California, Berkeley; Anthony Grafton, Princeton University; Susannah Heschel, Dartmouth College; Phyllis Mack, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey; Kenneth Mills, University of Toronto; David Nirenberg, University of Chicago; Mark A.
