Download or read book Dialogues on Miracle written by Robert A. Larmer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores, in a manner that is readily accessible to those with little or no formal training in philosophy or theology, important questions concerning the rationality of belief in miracles. This book employs the time-honored literary device of dialogue, a practice that dates as far back as Plato. Done well, this form of philosophical investigation puts forward a thesis, yet genuinely engages with the views its author opposes. These dialogues are intended to provide a philosophical defense of the possibility of rationally justified belief in miracles. Such a defense can legitimately dispense with much of the paraphernalia that professional scholars in a discipline use in writing for other professional scholars in their discipline--some scholarly texts seem to be more references than argument--but it must not "dumb down" the material by oversimplifying the issues, or presenting "straw man" versions of the arguments it seeks to refute. My hope is that not only those who are already convinced of the rationality of belief in miracles will read this book, but also those who are unconvinced.

Download or read book Present into Past written by Dennis McCormack and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-08-02 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his memoir, Present into Past: My Journey through Darkness and Light, Dennis McCormack shares anecdotes and poems that describe his time as a student at the Halifax School for the Blind and his later work at the Atlantic Braille Press and the Canadian National Institute for the Blind—with the hope of helping others find contentment and reach their potential. By offering essays that illustrate McCormack’s own life lessons, he provides a stepping stone for anyone ready to embark on their own journey to discovering happiness. McCormack begins with the story of how he entered the Halifax School for the Blind in September 1953, where, for the next thirteen years, he would study in an environment where teachers and students did not allow anyone to blame failure on their visual difficulties. As he progresses through his compelling life story, including the founding of the Atlantic Braille Press and marrying his soul mate, McCormack provides insight into how faith, love, and determination helped him find his way from the darkest days to the light. Present into Past: My Journey through Darkness and Light is a poignant memoir sharing the lesson that love is our birthright and that our true destiny is happiness.
Download or read book Pioneer Players written by Peter Fitzpatrick and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a dual biography, the story of Louis Esson, the distinguished playwright who has been called 'the father of Australian drama', and his wife Hilda, who did her own pioneering in the theatre and in public health. The plays they wrote and performed reflected the drama of their lives: creative angst, intellectual conflict, untimely death, romantic entanglement, jealousy and despair. Yet Peter Fitzpatrick's book is more than a good read. As a critical appraisal of Louis Esson's plays and an exploration of the relationships the Essons had with well-known literary and theatrical figures in Australia and overseas, the book is an exploration of a developing Australian culture and identity. It is also about the dynamics of a marriage between two brilliant people, reflecting not only the patterns of gender relationships in their own time, but universal passions and strategies.

Download or read book Where Paralytics Walk and the Blind See written by Mary Dunn and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of early modern accounts of sickness and disability—and what they tell us about our own approach to bodily difference In our age of biomedicine, society often treats sickness and disability as problems in need of solution. Phenomena of embodied difference, however, have not always been seen in terms of lack and loss. Where Paralytics Walk and the Blind See explores the case of early modern Catholic Canada under French rule and shows it to be a period rich with alternative understandings of infirmity, disease, and death. Counternarratives to our contemporary assumptions, these early modern stories invite us to creatively imagine ways of living meaningfully with embodied difference today. At the heart of Dunn’s account are a range of historical sources: Jesuit stories of illness in New France, an account of Canada’s first hospital, the hagiographic vita of Catherine de Saint-Augustin, and tales of miraculous healings wrought by a dead Franciscan friar. In an early modern world that subscribed to a Christian view of salvation, both sickness and disability held significance for more than the body, opening opportunities for virtue, charity, and even redemption. Dunn demonstrates that when these reflections collide with modern thinking, the effect is a certain kind of freedom to reimagine what sickness and disability might mean to us. Reminding us that the meanings we make of embodied difference are historically conditioned, Where Paralytics Walk and the Blind See makes a forceful case for the role of history in broadening our imagination.
