Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The Religion of the Heart,' Campbell provides a critical but sympathetic analysis of the European and British pietistic movements of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

Download or read book Boulainvilliers and the French Monarchy written by Harold A. Ellis and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suspicious of the French monarchy, and scornful of the new elites that served it, Henri de Boulainvilliers (1658–1722) has been considered one of the Old Regime's paradigmatic aristocratic reactionaries, a founder of modern racist theory. Some scholars, however, have admired his "constitutionalism" and judged him a progenitor of an enlightened aristocratic liberalism now commonly held to have been a major force in shaping the ideology of the French Revolution. In a close contextual study of the writings of this enigmatic, pivotal thinker, Harold A. Ellis persuasively rethinks both images of Boulainvilliers, finding him a controversialist who interpreted French history as a self-consciously political writer seeking to address an emergent political public.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Works of Saint Francis of Assisi is a profound collection of writings by the influential Italian friar and preacher. This book showcases Saint Francis' deep spirituality and devotion to God, as seen through his poignant prayers, sermons, letters, and rules for his religious order. The literary style is simple yet profound, reflecting Saint Francis' own humility and his emphasis on living a life of poverty, peace, and service to others. This work is a vital piece of medieval literature and provides insight into the religious context of the time. Readers will be captivated by Saint Francis' timeless teachings and his commitment to living a life of love and compassion. St. Francis of Assisi, known for his radical commitment to poverty and his love for nature, was driven by a deep spiritual connection to God. His writings reflect his desire to live a life of simplicity and devotion to God, as well as his concern for the marginalized and downtrodden. His experiences with poverty and his encounters with lepers and the poor influenced his profound spiritual insights and teachings. I highly recommend The Complete Works of Saint Francis of Assisi to readers interested in Christian spirituality, medieval literature, or the life of Saint Francis. This book provides a valuable glimpse into the mind and heart of a revered saint who continues to inspire people around the world.

Download or read book The Writings of Saint Francis of Assisi written by St. Francis of Assisi and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saint Francis is considered the first Italian poet by some literary critics. He believed commoners should be able to pray to God in their own language, and he often wrote in the dialect of Umbria instead of Latin. Francis' writing fully reflects his personality and spirituality, making them at once formidably mystic and exquisitely human. They combine great elevation of thought with much picturesqueness of expression. Through his prayers, correspondence and regulas readers will connect and unite with one of the most beloved saints of the Catholic Church.
Download or read book History of the Reformation in Europe in the Time of Calvin Vol 1 8 written by J. H. Merle d'Aubigne and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-24 with total page 2239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Henri Merle d'Aubigné presents the comprehensive scope of religious reform during the sixteenth century through Calvin's life and the church in Geneva. He outlines the people, places, and ideas that shaped the Reformation in France, England, Spain, Germany, Italy, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and the Netherlands. According to the author, the main theme of this book is the "renovation of the individual, of the Church, and of the human race." Following this thought, the whole book proves that Reformation resulted in political emancipation and brought about a new understanding of human freedom, which influenced the history of the three following centuries.
Download or read book Jalayirids written by Patrick Wing and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-18 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the origins, history, and memory of the Jalayirid dynasty, a family that succeeded the Mongol Ilkhans in Iran and Iraq in the 14th and early 15th centuries. The story of how the Jalayirids came to power is illustrative of the political dynamics that shaped much of the Mongol and post-Mongol period in the Middle East. The Jalayirid sultans sought to preserve the social and political order of the Ilkhanate, while claiming that they were the rightful heirs to the rulership of that order. Central to the Jalayirids' claims to the legacy of the Ilkhanate was their attempt to control the Ilkhanid heartland of Azarbayjan and its major city, Tabriz. Control of Azarbayjan meant control of a network of long-distance trade between China and the Latin West, which continued to be a source of economic prosperity through the 8th/14th century. Azarbayjan also represented the center of Ilkhanid court life, whether in the migration of the mobile court-camp of the ruler, or in the complexes of palatial, religious and civic buildings constructed around the city of Tabriz by members of the Ilkhanid royal family, as well as by members of the military and administrative elite.
