Download or read book Emerging Conversations on Theofiliation written by Kenneth Ameke and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is in honour of the silver jubilee of Most Rev. Anthony J. V. Obinna’s episcopacy that this book is put together in this first volume titled Emerging Conversations on Theofiliation: Essays in Honour of Archbishop Anthony J. V. Obinna. This volume discusses and enlarges insights inherent in Archbishop Obinna’s theological thinking on theofiliation. Therefore, the contributors to this volume critically examine his idea of theofiliation from their areas of speciality as a further exploration of this theological term. The willingness of the contributors has resulted in a collection that envisage the eclectic and heterogeneous scholarly vision of its honouree. Besides, the contributors to this maiden edition encompass both illustrious theologians and promising researchers in theology, philosophy, psychology, and management. The themes discussed by the contributors are grouped into biblical/comparative study, systematic/pastoral, ethical/management, philosophical/political, and anthropological issues. The enriching and diverse collections of this volume have five thematic sections of nineteen chapters that theofiliation brings together. “This Festschrift in honour of Amarachi Obinna is a compendium of usable knowledge. The authors have dealt with various themes largely inspired by the theology and practice of the archbishop. This conviction leads to the reflections on theofiliation, the reinGodment of all creation. The Festschrift is truly a treasure” (Prof. John Obilor, Imo State University Owerri). “This book is an insightful reading which will serve as an inspirational theological wellspring for emerging scholars engaged in articulating a robust African contextual theology to which it breathes fresh air. The spirit of dynamism in Archbishop Obinna’s novel brainchild of theofiliation is manifested in its applicability to wide-ranging academic disciplines” (William Odeke Owire, KU Leuven).

Download or read book Justification by Faith in African and Western context written by Jude Okocha and published by Tectum Wissenschaftsverlag. This book was released on 2012-03-28 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his Apostolic Exhortation "Evangelii Nuntiandi", Pope Paul VI explores the connections between the practises of evangelization and the social, economic and political advancement of human affairs. The author, Jude Okocha, agrees with Paul VI that the church should not ignore the importance of the problems in the society in which we live, namely those concerning justice, liberation, development and peace in the world. Okocha points out that in evangelizing one takes very seriously the social context of the evangelized, since, after all, this is the whole issue of inculturation or contextualization of theology. This way, the content of theology - God - remains the same. Only the manner of expression differs. One can approve the contextualization of theology, but that does not imply compromising the deposit of faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Path to Progress, was originally written in the African language, Igbo. Now, it is translated into the global language, English.

For example, the seven phenomenal steps, and even the eight tremendous blessings, are among the liberating forces that would fight to free the shackled from financial bondage. The eight forms of wealth are so woven through the pages of the book’s fifteen chapters ... among them: desire, talent, hope, learning, encouragement, determination, work, innate experience, etc. These citadels of wisdom are not only the forces of enrichment, the mirrors of pure paths to clear wealth, but even the very clouds of the coming rain of eternal progress.

Download or read book A Biafran Odyssey written by Chidi Giniji and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-03 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the turn of the year, 1966, Nigeria was thrown into an awful turmoil by a military coup that exacerbated the existing but cryptic ethnic resentments, precipitating the hostile environments, which necessitated the secession of Biafra, and a year later, ushered in a bloody three-year-war! A Biafran Odyssey is the story of a Biafran youngster, Chidi, who, convinced about the unequivocal legitimacy of Biafra's claim to self-determination, left home to join the army, but returned two years later, at the end of the war, with many unanswered questions and a sobering notion about his world. Chidi tells his story of Biafra, the way it was never told, featuring the emotional vagaries to which his comrades and himself were subjected to; their woes, their cries and, ironically, their laughs too, revealing some of the weird aspects of one of the most brutal ethnic conflicts of post- colonial Africa. With short poems and love scenes like the short-lived affair between himself and Bernadette, Chidi portrays, without being too salacious, albeit unique with African stories, some of the discomfits of transforming from adolescent into adulthood on a fast lane.

Download or read book Republic of Biafra Once Upon a Time in Nigeria written by Onyema G. Nkwocha and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not quite four months after the Western Region's election of October 10, 1965, did the localized mayhem in that Region find its way furiously into the center of the nation on January 15, 1966! It was like a whirl-wind of nothing but anarchy and lawlessness. The serious aftermath of the marred and rigged election was that it acted as the last straw that broke the Carmel's back, providing immediate reason for the army to overthrow the government of Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe. Anarchy ensued; a counter coup led to the death of Major-General Ironsi. Callous barbarous massacre of thousands of easterners in the North followed. With their lives in jeopardy, easterners fled for safety to eastern region; refugee crisis followed. To guarantee their safety, easterners seceded from Nigeria and on May 30th 1967, formed an independent and sovereign nation of the Republic of Biafra. Determined to bring Easterners back, on July 6, 1967 Nigeria invaded Biafra; waged a gruesome thirty-month-civil war against Biafra. Nigeria blockaded Biafra on land, sea and air, to prevent food from entering Biafra. A malnutrition disease, Kwashiorkor that caused the deaths of thousands of Biafrans, followed. Nigeria bombed Biafran civilians, killing thousands. On January 12, 1970 the war ended leaving more than three million people dead in a war that was totally avoidable!

Download or read book Theology and Social Issues in Africa written by Francis Anekwe Oborji and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-11-22 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Volume speaks to us from the heart and engages the socio-political concerns in the Nigerian context through the lens of a theological approach. The author reflects historically the numerous consequences of the amalgamation of the ethnic groups of different orientations in Nigeria into one socio-political structure of the colonizers interests. This sociopolitical structure raises several questions than answers it pretends to offer the indigenous people. From a Nigerian point of view, the articles in this volume critically challenge the unjust formation of any nationhood in the Africa context. It points out how the sustenance of an unjust nation formation betrays the creed on which such a nation is established. “Truth conquers all” is the spirit with which this Volume is written. It is the truth that will set a nation like Nigeria free from the spirit of confusion and unperceived religio-socio-political syncretism. The awareness emanating from this volume suggests liberating steps from the unsuspicious colonial interests and the sustained feigned relationship with the colonizers which militate against the socio-political and economic growth, and theological orthodoxy of such a growing nation.

Download or read book Reframing the Black Atlantic written by Aretha Phiri and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commemorating the thirtieth anniversary of Paul Gilroy’s seminal text, The Black Atlantic: Modernity and Double Consciousness, this book offers fresh interpretations of established black Atlantic scholarship from the perspective of those typically elided from its ideological purview and existential narrative. The application of queer and/or feminist lenses in each essay attempts to mediate these elisions and to advance potentially transformative, democratising readings of the black Atlantic from both complex and complicating African and diasporic viewpoints. With the aim of realigning black Atlantic scholarship in this way, the edited volume proposes an interventionist approach that is concerned with problematizing ethnic/ cultural universalisms and challenging geographic and gendered hierarchizations. Underlining the importance of aesthetic and creative cultural archives, Reframing the Black Atlantic’s focus on transnational African diasporic literature and other intersecting popular cultural forms probes the (imaginative) limits and possibilities of the black Atlantic, conventionally conceived. To this end, this book intends not just to complicate and enhance established views of black Africa; inviting the reader to locate and perceive black life lived otherwise, it points towards more inclusive and expansive global understandings and visions of blackness. This volume will be of particular use to researchers and students in the fields of race/gender, diaspora/transnational, literary and cultural studies. The chapters of this book were originally published in Cultural Studies.

Download or read book Comparative Studies in African Dirge Poetry written by Gloria Monica T. Emezue and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2001 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comparative Studies in African Dirge Poetry is an important contribution to research in African literature by Nigerian scholar GMT Emezue. Emezue sets out to portray the role and function of African dirge. Moving from the general (African milieu) to the specific (Igbo heritage) she explores written and oral modes of poetic expressions. Emezue also posits a theory of the African dirge with features comparatively distinctive from the formalised structures of western art. GMT Emezue's interest in traditional African dirge songs and modern poetry is borne from her conviction that nowhere in the corpus of oral poetry have there been more works of heightened creativity than the dirge forms.

Download or read book Against All Oddsagainst All Odds written by Funké Michaels and published by Author House. This book was released on 2011-07-25 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In fulfillment of an old Dahomeyan prophesy, the 7th generation of the lineage must return to the place of ancestral birth; to the beginning of an uneasy journey. Nearly two centuries later, the `Anchor' who is the 7th Amazon, must respond to that internal call despite the rigorous demands of modern living. To find her own 'place', she must complete the cycle of her 'mothers' and make an oar for the next generation. AGAINST ALL ODDS is the tale of 7 generations of a royal line whose strong women stand their ground; defying social norms and tribal stereotypes; defending forbidden love and unwittingly fulfilling the predictions of the ancient oracle. This fictional biography takes flight from the pre-colonial campaigns of the Amazons of Dahomey (female warriors whose codes defined a matriarchal society) through the years of slavery in the Americas, leading to the Abolition and subsequent `return'; into unfolding socio-economic drama and evolving religious beliefs, all the way to the harsh realities of modern day West Africa. Written with a poetic tone, this book will take you on a journey across the many cultures and different experiences that come together to define today's African.
