Born the fourth child of a family of minor nobility and the great-nephew of Voltaire, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was a well-respected scientist and a Jesuit priest who tirelessly pursued the connection between science and religion. He felt that “only through purity of heart and not pure science, is one ableÂ…to discover, with certainty, a creator behind the forces of nature.” Seek Christ in all of creation. A mystic and visionary, PierreÂ’s spirituality unites what seems to be contradictory experiences—intellect and adoration, science and religion, evolution and creation. Pierre believed that creation was not a single act, but a process that has never stopped; a great continuous gesture which spans across the totality of time; the universe is clay in the hands of the Creator, molded into the infinite possibilities that lay before us. Ultimately, it is here, with open hearts to the world around us, that we find the fundamental energy and the manifestation of God in the universe—love of Christ, love of neighbor and love of all creation. Enjoy your time with Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and be prepared to be surprised as you journey with one of the most engaging spiritual figures of our time.

Book excerpt: In 'All Saints' Day and Other Sermons', readers are presented with a collection of sermons delivered by Charles Kingsley, a man who wore many hats during his lifetime - from a priest of the Church of England, to a professor, social reformer, historian, novelist, and poet. As a Christian socialist, Kingsley's works are of particular interest to those interested in exploring issues of social justice and labor reforms. His efforts to form labor cooperatives may have failed, but they paved the way for later successes. Furthermore, Kingsley's friendship and correspondence with Charles Darwin adds another layer of intrigue to his life and works.

Download or read book The Cemeteries of New Orleans written by Peter B. Dedek and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Cemeteries of New Orleans, Peter B. Dedek reveals the origins and evolution of the Crescent City’s world-famous necropolises, exploring both their distinctive architecture and their cultural impact. Spanning centuries, this fascinating body of research takes readers from muddy fields of crude burial markers to extravagantly designed cities of the dead, illuminating a vital and vulnerable piece of New Orleans’s identity. Where many histories of New Orleans cemeteries have revolved around the famous people buried within them, Dedek focuses on the marble cutters, burial society members, journalists, and tourists who shaped these graveyards into internationally recognizable emblems of the city. In addition to these cultural actors, Dedek’s exploration of cemetery architecture reveals the impact of ancient and medieval grave traditions and styles, the city’s geography, and the arrival of trained European tomb designers, such as the French architect J. N. B. de Pouilly in 1833 and Italian artist and architect Pietro Gualdi in 1851. As Dedek shows, the nineteenth century was a particularly critical era in the city’s cemetery design. Notably, the cemeteries embodied traditional French and Spanish precedents, until the first garden cemetery—the Metairie Cemetery—was built on the site of an old racetrack in 1872. Like the older walled cemeteries, this iconic venue served as a lavish expression of fraternal and ethnic unity, a backdrop to exuberant social celebrations, and a destination for sightseeing excursions. During this time, cultural and religious practices, such as the celebration of All Saints’ Day and the practice of Voodoo rituals, flourished within the spatial bounds of these resting places. Over the course of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, however, episodes of neglect and destruction gave rise to groups that aimed to preserve the historic cemeteries of New Orleans—an endeavor, which, according to Dedek, is still wanting for resources and political will. Containing ample primary source material, abundant illustrations, appendices on both tomb styles and the history of each of the city’s eighteenth- and nineteenth-century cemeteries, The Cemeteries of New Orleans offers a comprehensive and intriguing resource on these fascinating historic sites.
