Download or read book Elior Prince of Fae written by Joshuan Rivera Jiménez and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elior of Lempara, the crown prince of fae folk, wakes on the ground and realizes he’s in the human realm—and has no idea how he got there. He remembers his father pointing his staff and a blinding light, but other than that, nothing. Elior needs a portal home, but where is the portal? For the time being, it looks like Elior is stuck in Brooklyn. When mercenaries come after him, the prince becomes entangled with an unsuspecting changeling. Elior and Alex put their heads together to find a portal back to the fae realm and evade the dangerous trio hunting them. However, it’s difficult navigating an unfamiliar world where Elior does not belong. He seeks a human with knowledge of the supernatural, and despite Elior’s protests over dark magic, the pair settle for a witch. Before he finds the portal back, Elior must decide: is he the person he was before losing his memory or has the human realm changed him into someone else? Editorial reviews: A highly compelling read, and one that I would recommend. The action and adventure are continuous throughout Elior: Prince of Fae by Joshuan Rivera Jiménez. I found the obstacles Elior had to overcome brought great tension and excitement to the story. The characters are beautifully created and their personalities are totally unique. I especially loved the changeling characters as they had so many layers to their personalities. ... I loved the dialogue exchanges that were authentic and, at times, hilarious. ... There were some important life lessons scattered throughout too, especially how we all have the power to choose our actions. This was especially highlighted by Tenneh when she said, “There was a life you led, and there is a life you created for yourself. It’s up to you to decide who you want to be going forward. No one person or circumstance can make that choice for you.” This was such a powerful and thought-provoking statement and a great piece of advice for the children reading this book. — Lesley Jones for Readers' Favorite, rated 5 out of 5 stars Elior: Prince of Fae by Joshuan Rivera Jiménez is a breezy, fast-paced fantasy featuring danger, romance, humor and magic. With only about 260 pages, the novel moves at a brisk clip. There are twists and turns and cliffhangers and reveals. Whenever the story slows down, it’s only a matter of time before the bad guys burst through the door. Admittedly, this is a bit clumsy but undoubtedly effective. The story leads to a satisfying showdown that neatly ties up all the plot threads while leaving enough space for a possible sequel. The book has one significant flaw in the way it tries to explain the rules of its fictional world. This challenge is inherent to the genre, and not all authors are up to it. By giving his protagonist amnesia, Rivera Jiménez comes up with an excellent excuse to utilize othercharacters to explain things that may be obvious to them, but not to his readers. ... Despite this weakness, Elior: Prince of Fae is a thoroughly enjoyable read. Joshuan Rivera Jiménez successfully created appealing characters. His fast-paced narrative is accompanied by humor and spiced up with just a touch of romance. Hopefully, one day we might see a sequel. — Danijel triga for IndieReader, rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Download or read book The Unknown History of Jewish Women Through the Ages written by Rachel Elior and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 808 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unknown History of Jewish Women—On Learning and Illiteracy: On Slavery and Liberty is a comprehensive study on the history of Jewish women, which discusses their absence from the Jewish Hebrew library of the "People of the Book" and interprets their social condition in relation to their imposed ignorance and exclusion from public literacy. The book begins with a chapter on communal education for Jewish boys, which was compulsory and free of charge for the first ten years in all traditional Jewish communities. The discussion continues with the striking absence of any communal Jewish education for girls until the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, and the implications of this fact for twentieth-century immigration to Israel (1949-1959) The following chapters discuss the social, cultural and legal contexts of this reality of female illiteracy in the Jewish community—a community that placed a supreme value on male education. The discussion focuses on the patriarchal order and the postulations, rules, norms, sanctions and mythologies that, in antiquity and the Middle Ages, laid the religious foundations of this discriminatory reality.

Susanne Talabardon in: Theologische Literaturzeitung "Wer an der neueren Forschung zur Merkava-Mystik interessiert ist, erhält hier etwa 70 Seiten dichte Informationen, die vor allem auch den von Scholem selbst bereits als Desiderat erkannten Bezug zu den damals erst angfänglich erforschten Qumran-Texten herstellen."

Download or read book The Paradoxical Ascent to God written by Rachel Elior and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of the Habad Hasidism movement, an influential part of the Hasidic Movement, which originated in the eigteenth century. Habad was founded by Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi (1745-1813) who established a Hasidic community in Belorussia and who set forth the new Habad doctrine in a book entitled Tanya (Likutey Amarim). This doctrine expounded the mystical ideas underlying the quest for God. Its essential innovation lay in the formulation of a religious outlook which concentrated upon perceiving the divinity: its essence, its nature, the stages of its manifestation, its characteristics, its perfection, its differing wills, its processes, the significance of its revelation and the possibilities of its perception. This conception generated a profound transformation of religious worship and was the cause of great controversy throughout the Jewish world.

Download or read book Kabbalistic Manuscripts and Textual Theory written by Daniel Abrams and published by Hebrew University Magnes Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kabbalistic Manuscripts and Textual Theory uncovers the unstated assumptions and expectations of scribes and scholars who fashioned editions from manuscripts of Jewish mystical literature. This study offers a theory of kabbalistic textuality in which the material book the printed page no less than handwritten manuscripts serves as the site for textual dialogue between Jewish mystics of different periods and locations. The refashioning of the text through the process of reading and commenting that takes place on the page in the margins and between the lines blurs the boundaries between the traditionally defined roles of author, reader, commentator and editor. This study shows that kabbalists and academic editors reinvented the text in their own image, as part of a fluid textual process that was nothing short of transformative. This book is certainly monumental, offering in its seven hundred pages a wealth of documentation and distilled argument that manages to be both comprehensive in its materials and transparent in its critical insights. It is rare indeed that a work of such formidable scholarship can actually be a pleasure to read and convincing in its elucidation of what are often extremely complex documentary circumstances and editorial traditions.

Download or read book Dybbuks and Jewish Women in Social History Mysticism and Folklore written by Rachel Elior and published by Urim Publications. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How and why a person comes to be possessed by a dybbuk—the possession of a living body by the soul of a deceased person—and what consequences ensue from such possession, form the subject of this book. Though possession by a dybbuk has traditionally been understood as punishment for a terrible sin, it can also be seen as a mechanism used by desperate individuals—often women—who had no other means of escape from the demands and expectations of an all-encompassing patriarchal social order. Dybbuks and Jewish Women examines these and other aspects of dybbuk possession from historical and phenomenological perspectives, with particular attention to the gender significance of the subject.

Download or read book Kabbalistic Metaphors written by Sanford L. Drob and published by Jason Aronson. This book was released on 2000 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kabbalistic Metaphors: Jewish Mystical Themes in Ancient and Modern Thought places the major symbols of the theosophical Kabbalah into a dialogue with several systems of ancient and modern thought, including Indian Philosophy, Platonism, Gnosticism, and the works of Hegel, Freud, and Jung. The author shows how the Kabbalah organizes a series of ancient ideas regarding God, cosmos, and humanity into a basic metaphor that itself reappears in various guises in much of modern philosophy and psychology. Recognition of the parallels between the Kabbalah and modern philosophy and psychology provides us with valuable insight into both the Kabbalah and modern thought, and helps pave the way for a new Kabbalah, one that is spiritually and intellectually relevant to contemporary man.
