Download or read book Slaving Zones written by Jeff Fynn-Paul and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listen to podcast on “Slaving Zones, Contemporary Slavery and Citizenship: Reflections from the Brazilian Case”. In Slaving Zones: Cultural Identities, Ideologies, and Institutions in the Evolution of Global Slavery, fourteen authors—including both world-leading and emerging historians of slavery—engage with the ‘Slaving Zones’ theory. This theory has recently taken the field of Mediterranean slavery studies by storm, and the challenge posed by the editors was to see if the ‘Slaving Zones’ theory could be applied in the wider context of long-term global history. The results of this experiment are promising. In the Introduction, Jeff Fynn-Paul points out over a dozen ways in which the contributors have added to the concept of ‘Slaving Zones’, helping to make it one of the more dynamic theories of global slavery since the advent of Orlando Patterson’s Slavery and Social Death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empowering Memory and Movement Elisabeth Schssler Fiorenza completes a three volume look across her influential work and career. In Transforming Vision (2011) she drew from a career of pioneering scholarship to offer the contours of a critical feminist hermeneutic. The chapters in Changing Horizons (2013) sketched a theory of liberation. Now, the consequences for a liberating praxis are evident in interviews and essays that look back over personal and movement history, look around at challenges and potentialities, and look ahead to an emancipatory future, the critical engagement with scripture always at the center.

Book excerpt: Manumission is a romance novel set in a fantasy kingdom with gladiator-style action and political unrest. A story of friendship and betrayal fuelled by the forbidden love between two species. Within an old Kingdom, our elven race of female warriors keep humans as slaves, and we thrive. Until the rebellion started, disturbing the peace and hurting the innocent, now I hunt them. My name is General Truda and I will find the hidden rebel base. When my man servant is killed during an ambush, rage for the loss of a slave brings confusion and chaos into my commanding and otherwise structured life. He was so much more, meant more to me than my society allows. But I have no time to grieve, as a new alliance of enemies has emerged from within my city, and they have plans for me, plans I will not succumb to. They may have forced me to take part in a traditional breeding programme, but I am nobody’s breeder, I will defy their rules. Meeting Erik changes everything, he awakens a passion I never knew existed. Now I must choose between obeying the laws of my species or to free the forbidden human, who repairs my heart.

Download or read book Slavery as Moral Problem written by Jennifer A. Glancy and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fact that some early Christians were slaves does not present a moral problem for Christians today. The fact that some early Christians were slaveholders does. Jennifer Glancy tackles questions that continue to haunt contemporary men and women, inside and outside of the churches: Why didn't Jesus speak out forcefully against slavery? Why didn't the early church see slavery as fundamentally incompatible with the gospel? Were there any bright moments when some Christians in fact drew that conclusion, and why don't we know more about them? Why didn't Christianity have more of an impact on slaveholding in the Roman Empire? And what lessons can we learn as we face moral catastrophes in our own day?
