Download or read book Eclairer l Obscurit written by Habeeb Akande and published by Rabaah Publishers. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eclairer l'Obscurité (Illuminating the Darkness en anglais) traite du statut des noirs et des Nord-Africains en Islam. Le livre est divise en deux parties: la premiere partie explore les concepts de race, de "negritude", d'esclavage, de mariages mixtes et de racisme au sein de l'Islam et a la lumiere du Coran, des Hadiths (traditions prophetiques) et de sources historiques anciennes. La seconde partie du livre est composee d'un recueil de courtes biographies de nobles musulmans noirs et Nord-Africains dans l'histoire musulmane, incluant des prophetes, des compagnions du Prophete ainsi que des personnages historiques plus recents.Cela fournit un apercu fascinant de l'ensemble des civilisations africaines, de la resistance violente organisee contre le colonialisme et aussi des brillants savants d'une tradition souvent oubliee qui nourrirent cette histoire. Le lecteur n'a besoin d'aucune precision lors de la lecture de ce livre, si ce n'est celle que l'auteur s'efforce de clarifier tout du long : le din de l'Islam n'est pas seulement exempt de racisme, mais il y est tout a fait oppose, le considerant comme etant la forme la plus aberrante de la jahiliyyah (l'ignorance).

Download or read book Delirious written by Kelly Baum and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can postwar art be understood as an exercise in calculated insanity? Taking this provocative question as its basis, this book explores the art and history of delirium from 1950 to 1980, an era shaped by the brutality of World War II and the rapid expansion of industrial capitalism. Skepticism of science and technology—along with fear of its capability to promote mass destruction—developed into a distrust of rationalism, which profoundly influenced the art of the times. Delirious features work by more than sixty artists from Europe, Latin America, and the United States, including Dara Birnbaum, León Ferrari, Gego, Bruce Nauman, Howardena Pindell, Peter Saul, and Nancy Spero. Experimenting with irrational subject matter and techniques, these artists forged new strategies that directly responded to such unbalanced times. Disturbing and challenging, the works in this book—in multiple media and often, counterintuitively, incorporating highly ordered and systematic structures—upend traditional notions of aesthetic harmony. Three wide-ranging essays and a richly illustrated plates section investigate the degree to which delirious times demand delirious art, inviting readers to “think crazy." p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana}
Download or read book Authority and Authoritative Texts in the Platonist Tradition written by Michael Erler and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All disciplines can count on a noble founder, and the representation of this founder as an authority is key in order to construe a discipline's identity. This book sheds light on how Plato and other authorities were represented in one of the most long-lasting traditions of all time. It leads the reader through exegesis and polemics, recovery of the past and construction of a philosophical identity. From Xenocrates to Proclus, from the sceptical shift to the re-establishment of dogmatism, from the Mosaic of the Philosophers to the Neoplatonist Commentaries, the construction of authority emerges as a way of access to the core of the Platonist tradition.

Download or read book Rambling on Saint Martin written by Gérard M. Hunt and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grard M. Hunt is a man without a country, trying to piece together in essays, editorials and scholarship a country of his own from three quite separate nations: French Colonial by birth and upbringing; United States by military service and higher education; and Canada by profession in teaching and scholarship. The three have by no means come together in a single national unity. His homing tendency seems to be towards St. Martin, but St. Martin is itself an amalgam a clump of volcanic earth still divided, for no good reason, between two independent sovereigns thousands of miles away. He is a unitary citizen without an integrated polity. (...) Many of Grards essays are grave and penetrating trials. Many are sentimental catching up with childhood comrades, sharing grief over a lost friend or relative. Several of these discourses are critiques of the wayward tendencies of French efforts to govern Saint-Martin from Paris through Guadeloupe. The most serious and extensive of essays aim at encouraging a greater sense of historical awareness and of community solidarity among St. Martiners ...

Download or read book Aurores et cr puscules dans la Th ba de de Stace written by Melissande Tomcik and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. Ce livre propose une étude intertextuelle des descriptions d’aurores et de crépuscules dans la Thébaïde de Stace. Les images poétiques de l’Aurore aux doigts de rose ou du char solaire plongeant dans l’Océan cachent un travail minutieux sur la tradition littéraire antérieure. Les remarquables aurores et crépuscules de la Thébaïde illustrent parfaitement la façon dont les caractéristiques traditionnelles du motif peuvent être détournées pour transmettre un nouveau message. Chaque chapitre de cet ouvrage examine en détail un des aspects lié aux aurores et aux crépuscules : expressions formulaires, rôle structurant, fonction lumineuse et temporelle, potentiel métaphorique. This book offers an intertextual study of dawn and dusk descriptions in Statius’ Thebaid. Poetic images such as rosy-fingered Dawn and the fiery chariot of the Sun sinking into the Ocean are the result of learned work on the previous literary tradition. The striking dawn and dusk descriptions in the Thebaid offer a perfect illustration of the way in which the traditional characteristics of the motif can be remodelled to produce new meaning. Each chapter in this monograph examines one of the aspects associated with dawns and dusks: formulaic diction, structuring role, relation to time and light, allegory.
