Download or read book Creativity and Time A Sociological Exploration written by Juan A. Roche Cárcel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book defends that the pursuit of originality constitutes one of the most important characteristics of creativity, but that originality refers, etymologically, to both origin and originary. Hence, the book is structured into two parts, dedicated, respectively, to the creative categories of origin and the creative categories of originary. Within the former are creation myths, games – the origin of all cultural activity, the dialectic chaos-order, axial civilizations – the germ of our time, and the struggle between generations – a factor of social transformation, and, within the second, creative capitalism, creative work in the context of the global economy of risk and uncertainty, and representative democracy. However, these two concepts are not isolated, but deeply interrelated, in a way that explains how creative originality builds a temporal narrative. It has been dislocated in late modernity and, with it, creativity has been broken.

Download or read book The Bible Unearthed written by Israel Finkelstein and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2002-03-06 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking work that sets apart fact and legend, authors Finkelstein and Silberman use significant archeological discoveries to provide historical information about biblical Israel and its neighbors. In this iconoclastic and provocative work, leading scholars Israel Finkelstein and Neil Asher Silberman draw on recent archaeological research to present a dramatically revised portrait of ancient Israel and its neighbors. They argue that crucial evidence (or a telling lack of evidence) at digs in Israel, Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon suggests that many of the most famous stories in the Bible—the wanderings of the patriarchs, the Exodus from Egypt, Joshua’s conquest of Canaan, and David and Solomon’s vast empire—reflect the world of the later authors rather than actual historical facts. Challenging the fundamentalist readings of the scriptures and marshaling the latest archaeological evidence to support its new vision of ancient Israel, The Bible Unearthed offers a fascinating and controversial perspective on when and why the Bible was written and why it possesses such great spiritual and emotional power today.

Download or read book Cato s return written by Matilde Asensi and published by Matilde Asensi. This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What could the Silk Road, the Sewers of Istambul, Marco Polo, Mongolia and Holy Land have in common? That's what the main characters of " The Last Cato", Ottavia Salina and Farag Boswell, will have to find out, putting their lives at risk yet again to solve a mystery that begins in the first century AD. Written with accuracy and a rhythm that keeps readers in suspense page after page, chapter after chapter until the very end, " Cato's Return" is an ingenious combination of adventure and history with which Matilde Asensi once again draws us in and doesn't let us go until the last word.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Después de muchos intentos de concepción, Callie finalmente pudo quedar embarazada. Pero al inicio del embarazo ella tuvo hemorragias. Había peligro de que perdiera al bebe y posiblemente su propia vida. Después de que varios doctores de grandes hospitales le recomendaron interrumpir el embarazo del niño que aun no conocían; ella y su esposo Henry decidieron continuar y encontraron ayuda y confort en el hospital del condado de Los Ángeles. Ellos sabían que si ese bebe no nacía, entonces no habría otro. La pareja había sido advertida por los doctores que naciera o no el bebe, ella debía hacerse una histerectomía permanente para poder detener la hemorragia que atentaba con su vida. Esto terminaría con toda esperanza de tener una maternidad natural para los Wares. El bebe Donald nació, pero desarrolló Polio a una edad muy temprana, aun así pude superar este desafío para convertirme en un bailarín profesional. Fui criado en un vecindario pobre pero cambie esa situación convirtiéndome en un doctor reconocido y agente de cambio. Fui desde mi pobre vecindario hasta New York, Washington, DC, y Cambridge MA; y luego regresar a casa para enfrentarme con la oposición de doctores en un hospital local y en uno de las corporaciones hospitalarias más grandes del mundo. Sobre la marcha, en plena lucha, el Espíritu Santo se me reveló en voz, visiones, señales físicas y maravillas en mi vida. Estos acontecimientos me dieron la victoria sobre la tiranía, para el beneficio de todos nosotros. Esta historia de viada es sobre la victoria sobre todas las adversidades. Dice que Dios vive, y se interesa por las vidas de todos, e intervendrá en nuestras vidas por el bien de todos nosotros.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set against the backdrop of Roman imperial history, The Message and the Kingdom demonstrates how the quest for the kingdom of God by Jesus, Paul, and the earliest churches should be understood as both a spiritual journey and a political response to the "mindless acts of violence, inequality, and injustice that characterized the kings of men." Horsley and Silberman reveal how the message of Jesus and Paul was profoundly shaped by the history of their time as well as the social conditions of the congregations to whom they preached.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Features: Analysis of geographical chapters of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Chronicles Study of the Hasmonean period in the late second century BCE Unique arguments regarding chronology and historical background

Download or read book Psalm 23 written by Steven Anderson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-02 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the many books published on Psalm 23, it is somewhat surprising that there has not been one which uses photographs to elucidate the historical and cultural setting of this ancient psalm. Psalm 23: A Photo Commentary fills this gap by illustrating Psalm 23 with more than 60 high-quality photographs. The photographs include traditional cultural scenes, modern landscapes, and museum artifacts. The accompanying text explains the visual information in the photographs and relates it to Psalm 23 through a verse-by-verse commentary. The authors hold PhDs from Dallas Theological Seminary and have written extensively on the Bible and its cultural world.
