Book excerpt: Mother Earth’s health crisis is no secret. What Awaits Us... does not shy from the truth about Earth’s decline. Instead, through a truly enchanting tale, it expands our understanding of our enormous global challenge, and lays out a solution that every person on the planet can adopt. In astonishing and touching encounters, Nature’s precious representatives telepathically deliver urgent messages that humankind’s inhumanity is at the root of Earth’s failing health. We discover from these sagacious creatures that the negative energy created from our thoughts, words, and deeds is even more destructive to the planet than is our material pollution. Although the messages funneled through this story are heartbreaking, hope is inspired when a diverse group of characters, including wildlife, amiable humans, deceased ancestors, and Those Who Came Before, collaborate in developing a plan to restore Earth’s health. Through simple steps, The Plan, which is a transformative opportunity, teaches us how to release our negative tendencies. The Plan easily fits into our daily lives, and as we make positive changes, the Earth’s health rapidly improves. By participating in The Plan, you will profoundly help the planet while also healing yourself.
Download or read book Awaiting Oblivion written by Maurice Blanchot and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Another of Blanchot's almost-fictions . . . throwing into deliciously baffling high relief the enigmatic condition of a man and woman alone in a sparsely furnished hotel room who try to remember what has happened to bring them there as they apprehensively await whatever will happen next. Their reserved confusion and quiet desperation eventually impress upon them (and us) the realization that imagination (or, if you will, writing) can create reality -- and offer the paradoxical solace that seems to rest at the heart of Blanchot's writing: the sense that even language that expresses meaninglessness can't help but contain and, therefore, convey meaning." -- Kirkus. "This absolutely first-rate translation will not only make Blanchot accessible to many new readers but will also encourage Blanchot scholars and students to reconsider everything they thought they knew about L'Attente l'oubli. . . . This book should be required reading, period." -- Choice. "Awaiting Oblivion is one of [Blanchot's] crowning works . . . a penetrating reflection upon human nature, language, and literature.""--Translation Review. ""Blanchot is a terrifying writer.""--Review of Contemporary Fiction. Maurice Blanchot has been for a half century one of France's leading authors of fiction and theory. Two of his most ambitious nonfiction works, The Space of Literature and The Writing of the Disaster, are also available from the University of Nebraska Press, as is The Most High, his third novel. John Gregg is the author of Maurice Blanchot and the Literature of Transgression.

Download or read book Awaiting the Impossible written by See Seng Tan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-06-08 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book dialogues with deconstruction’s “religion without religion” and its implications for theology. In the view of many, deconstruction is a purely nihilistic force bent on the wanton destruction of long-held philosophical, religious, and moral traditions. However, this perspective ignores the fact that deconstruction—in the hands of its standard bearers like Jacques Derrida, John Caputo, and others—has all along been a religious exercise in demythologization. Furnishing a Christian rejoinder to deconstruction’s claims about and objections to orthodox religion (and particularly to Christianity), the book addresses the following questions: How can deconstruction open a space for an affirmative faith to occur and be professed? Can deconstruction ever be hospitable toward Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah for which it waits?
Download or read book Awaiting Apocalypse written by P. Corcoran and published by Springer. This book was released on 1999-12-03 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current obsession with the 'end of the millennium' illustrates the enduring power of the idea of endings. This fascination cannot be simply dismissed as faulty logic, a form of madness, or a primitive survival of childish thinking. Opening a path of understanding between ancient conceptions of meaning and the sceptical predicates of modern science, Awaiting Apocalypse shows how ordinary and extraordinary endings are inherent in the narrative structure of human experience and the sedimentation of that experience as historical meaning.

Download or read book Awaiting the Heavenly Country written by Mark S. Schantz and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-09-20 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Americans came to fight the Civil War in the midst of a wider cultural world that sent them messages about death that made it easier to kill and to be killed. They understood that death awaited all who were born and prized the ability to face death with a spirit of calm resignation. They believed that a heavenly eternity of transcendent beauty awaited them beyond the grave. They knew that their heroic achievements would be cherished forever by posterity. They grasped that death itself might be seen as artistically fascinating and even beautiful."-from Awaiting the Heavenly Country How much loss can a nation bear? An America in which 620,000 men die at each other's hands in a war at home is almost inconceivable to us now, yet in 1861 American mothers proudly watched their sons, husbands, and fathers go off to war, knowing they would likely be killed. Today, the death of a soldier in Iraq can become headline news; during the Civil War, sometimes families did not learn of their loved ones' deaths until long after the fact. Did antebellum Americans hold their lives so lightly, or was death so familiar to them that it did not bear avoiding? In Awaiting the Heavenly Country, Mark S. Schantz argues that American attitudes and ideas about death helped facilitate the war's tremendous carnage. Asserting that nineteenth-century attitudes toward death were firmly in place before the war began rather than arising from a sense of resignation after the losses became apparent, Schantz has written a fascinating and chilling narrative of how a society understood death and reckoned the magnitude of destruction it was willing to tolerate. Schantz addresses topics such as the pervasiveness of death in the culture of antebellum America; theological discourse and debate on the nature of heaven and the afterlife; the rural cemetery movement and the inheritance of the Greek revival; death as a major topic in American poetry; African American notions of death, slavery, and citizenship; and a treatment of the art of death-including memorial lithographs, postmortem photography and Rembrandt Peale's major exhibition painting The Court of Death. Awaiting the Heavenly Country is essential reading for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of the Civil War and the ways in which antebellum Americans comprehended death and the unimaginable bloodshed on the horizon.

Download or read book Awaiting The Dawn written by Vladimir Husaruk and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-04-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In addition to the atrocities committed by the gestapo against the Jews, thousands of Christians were also arrested and enslaved in German work camps. In 1944, while on a train from Cracow, Poland, to Vienna, Austria, Rev. Vladimir Husaruk was arrested for being a "religious agitator." He was carrying a suitcase with fifty-two New Testaments to distribute to Slavic Christians who had been arrested and enslaved by the German gestapo. He spent the remainder of WWII in two prisons, including Montelupich, known for its tortures and executions, and two Nazi concentration camps, Gross-Rosen and Hersbruck, before being released by American soldiers in April 1945. His story of incredible faith and resilience in the face of death, starvation, and inhumane treatment culminates in a three-hundred-mile bicycle ride through Germany to be reunited once again with his family.

Download or read book Await Your Reply written by Dan Chaon and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lives of three strangers interconnect in unforeseen ways–and with unexpected consequences–in acclaimed author Dan Chaon’s gripping, brilliantly written new novel. Longing to get on with his life, Miles Cheshire nevertheless can’t stop searching for his troubled twin brother, Hayden, who has been missing for ten years. Hayden has covered his tracks skillfully, moving stealthily from place to place, managing along the way to hold down various jobs and seem, to the people he meets, entirely normal. But some version of the truth is always concealed. A few days after graduating from high school, Lucy Lattimore sneaks away from the small town of Pompey, Ohio, with her charismatic former history teacher. They arrive in Nebraska, in the middle of nowhere, at a long-deserted motel next to a dried-up reservoir, to figure out the next move on their path to a new life. But soon Lucy begins to feel quietly uneasy. My whole life is a lie, thinks Ryan Schuyler, who has recently learned some shocking news. In response, he walks off the Northwestern University campus, hops on a bus, and breaks loose from his existence, which suddenly seems abstract and tenuous. Presumed dead, Ryan decides to remake himself–through unconventional and precarious means. Await Your Reply is a literary masterwork with the momentum of a thriller, an unforgettable novel in which pasts are invented and reinvented and the future is both seductively uncharted and perilously unmoored.
