Download or read book Panorama written by Steve Kistulentz and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard MacMurray, a cable news talking head, is paid handsomely to pontificate on the issues of the moment. On New Year's Day he is scheduled to be a guest on a prominent morning talk show. As he awaits the broadcast, the network interrupts with news that a jet airliner has crashed in Dallas and that everyone aboard has perished. Within an hour, amateur videotape surfaces of the plane's last moments, transforming the crash into a living image: familiar, constant, and horrifying. Richard learns that his sister, Mary Beth, was aboard the doomed flight, leaving behind her six-year-old son, Gabriel. Richard is the boy's only living relative. When he is given an opportunity to bring Gabriel home, it may be that the loss of his sister will provide him with the second chapter he never knew he wanted. In this powerful debut, Steve Kistulentz captures the sprawl of contemporary America -- its culture, its values, the workaday existence of its people -- with kaleidoscopic sweep and controlled intensity. Yet within the expansive scope of Panorama lies an intimate portrait of human loss rendered with precision, humanity, and humor.

This book will be welcomed by seasoned Bible students as well as newcomers to the study of God’s Word.” -Jean Nystrand Executive Director, BSF International (Retired) "Sanders surveys the scope of the Bible from a dispensational viewpoint in a single volume. He is to be commended for his work." -Dr. Stanley D. Toussaint Senior Professor Emeritus of Bible Dallas Theological Seminary “For years I have seen Ron Sanders’ passion for God's word, and for the nations as he has partnered with our ministry in Cambodia. We appreciate Ron's heart as he has partnered with a number of our indigenous leaders to see them thrive in Advancing Christ's Kingdom in Cambodia.” -Garth Gustafson Indo-China Regional Director YWAM “I have known Ron Sanders for 20 years, since we first worked together on Okinawa, Japan. He is something of a Christian “father” to my wife and I--trusted friend and wise advisor. I am honored to endorse his scholarly book and pray each reader enjoys it, is challenged, and grows in their understanding and love of our Lord.” -Colonel Cornelius Jacobs (USAF, Ret) Overseas Missionary with Anglican Frontier Missions From the Author In writing, my purpose has been to show that God not only has been active in human history, but also desires a relationship with men and women, and the accounts about Him in the Bible are trustworthy. My wife suggested that something was needed that a present day audience could relate to. She suggested "God in Imax", an all surrounding view of God. Thus the final title: GOD IN IMAX: A Panorama of Divine History. It is our hope that this book will help many to better relate to God.

Download or read book The Panorama written by Stephan Oettermann and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The significance of panorama painting in the nineteenth century is frequently cited in contemporary debates about visuality and the emergence of the modern spectator. Stephan Oettermann's The Panorama is the first major historical study to appear in English of the rich phenomenon of the panorama, one of the most influential forms of visual entertainment in the nineteenth century. In this richly illustrated book Oettermann gives readers a concrete sense of the structural and experiential reality of the panorama, and the many forms it took throughout Europe and North America--a crucial task given that very few of the original nineteenth-century panoramas survive. At the same time, he outlines the many ways in which these remarkable and often immense 360-degree images were part of a larger transformation of the status of the observer and of popular culture. Thus, the panorama is treated not only as a new kind of image but also as an architectural and informational component of the new urban spaces and media networks.

Download or read book On the Viewing Platform written by Katie Trumpener and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wide-ranging study of the painted panorama’s influence on art, photography, and film This ambitious volume presents a multifaceted account of the legacy of the circular painted panorama and its far-reaching influence on art, photography, film, and architecture. From its 18th-century origins, the panorama quickly became a global mass-cultural phenomenon, often linked to an imperial worldview. Yet it also transformed modes of viewing and exerted a lasting, visible impact on filmmaking techniques, museum displays, and contemporary installation art. On the Viewing Platform offers close readings of works ranging from proto-panoramic Renaissance cityscapes and 19th-century paintings and photographs to experimental films and a wide array of contemporary art. Extensively researched and spectacularly illustrated, this volume proposes an expansive new framework for understanding the histories of art, film, and spectatorship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While every character, story, and book of Scripture is significant in itself, stepping back for a broad, panoramic view of the entire Bible helps us to take in and understand God’s single, unified plan for human history. In this first of a two-part panorama of the Bible, noted Scripture scholar Stephen Binz shows us how all of the Bible’s many parts fit together in a grand and awesome narrative.

Download or read book Panorama written by H. G. Adler and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2012-01-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only recently available for the first time in English, Panorama is the newly rediscovered first novel of H. G. Adler, a modernist master whose work has been compared to that of Kafka, Joyce, and Solzhenitsyn. A brilliant epic told in ten distinct vignettes, Panorama is a portrait of a place and people soon to be destroyed, as seen through the eyes of the young Josef Kramer. It moves from the pastoral World War I–era Bohemia of Josef’s youth, to a German boarding school full of creeping prejudice, through an infamous extermination camp, and finally to Josef’s self-imposed exile abroad, achieving veracity and power through a stream-of-consciousness style reminiscent of our greatest modern masters. The author of six novels as well as the monumental account of his experiences in a Nazi labor camp, Theresienstadt 1941–1945, H. G. Adler is an essential author with unique historical importance. Panorama is lasting evidence of both the torment of his life and the triumph of his gifts.
