Book Paragon of Excellence

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dennis Ngien
  • Publisher : Fortress Press
  • Release : 2023-09-26
  • ISBN : 1506488196
  • Pages : 272 pages

Download or read book Paragon of Excellence written by Dennis Ngien and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars routinely describe how Martin Luther prioritized the books of the New Testament that he believed most truly represented the gospel, the Living Word of Jesus Christ. Luther adored the Gospel of John and the Pauline epistles. Less well known is the admiration he had for the pastoral epistle of 1 Peter. Dennis Ngien's careful explication brings 1 Peter into the light of Lutheran biblical scholarship, demonstrating its standing for Luther alongside the Gospel of John and the Pauline epistles as the "true kernel and marrow of all books." Ngien rejects caricatured portrayals of Peter disappearing halfway through the book of Acts. Instead, Ngien demonstrates that, for Luther, Peter stands alongside John and Paul as a master of the majestic doctrine of justification. Luther variously describes 1 Peter as "the paragon of excellence" and "the genuine and pure gospel." Ngien uses the epistle's five chapters as thematic frames for describing the depth and breadth of regard Luther had for Peter. Indeed, for Ngien the sermons on 1 Peter present the most comprehensive early expression of Luther's mature thought and reflect the reformer's vocational maturation as "care-taker of the soul." Proclaiming Christ as gift and example, 1 Peter preached "genuinely evangelical words" that helped Luther understand his call as a theologian and, more importantly, as a minister.

Book The Rustle of Paul

    Book Details:
  • Author : Scott S. Elliott
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2020-02-20
  • ISBN : 0567676366
  • Pages : 168 pages

Download or read book The Rustle of Paul written by Scott S. Elliott and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-20 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scott S. Elliott reconsiders the autobiographical statements Paul makes throughout his letters (particularly Philippians 3:4b-6; Romans 7:14-25; 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 and 2 Corinthians 12:1-10) in light of the theoretical work of Roland Barthes. Elliott draws particularly on Barthes' later poststructuralist writings, many of which touch either directly or indirectly on self-narration (e.g., Roland Barthes by Roland Barthes, Mourning Diary, Camera Lucida, and A Lover's Discourse: Fragments). These provide fruitful dialogue partners with which Elliott can interrogate and examine Paul's own writings and consider the ways in which Paul saw himself and how the application of this theory can yield a greater understanding of Paul's letters.

Book Sources of Holocaust Insight

Download or read book Sources of Holocaust Insight written by John K. Roth and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sources of Holocaust Insight maps the odyssey of an American Christian philosopher who has studied, written, and taught about the Holocaust for more than fifty years. What findings result from John Roth’s journey; what moods pervade it? How have events and experiences, scholars and students, texts and testimonies—especially the questions they raise—affected Roth’s Holocaust studies and guided his efforts to heed the biblical proverb: “Whatever else you get, get insight”? More sources than Roth can acknowledge have informed his encounters with the Holocaust. But particular persons—among them Elie Wiesel, Raul Hilberg, Primo Levi, and Albert Camus—loom especially large. Revisiting Roth’s sources of Holocaust insight, this book does so not only to pay tribute to them but also to show how the ethical, philosophical, and religious reverberations of the Holocaust confer and encourage responsibility for human well-being in the twenty-first century. Seeing differently, seeing better—sound learning and teaching about the Holocaust aim for what may be the most important Holocaust insight of all: Take nothing good for granted.

Pull up a Chairry and enjoy” (Michael Musto, Village Voice). Between 1986 and 1991, a pandemic swept the nation. Symptoms included talking to furniture, checking the refrigerator for signs of life, and a desire to SCREAM REAL LOUD every time a “secret word” was spoken. For five years, Saturday morning television infect nearly ten million people a week with Pee-wee Fever.

Come on in and take a look Inside Pee-wee’s Playhouse. “With his inspired, lunatic Pee-wee’s Playhouse, Paul Reubens showed a generation of television viewers that it’s okay to be different. Caseen Gaines has crafted a meticulously researched look at the origin, production, and legacy of this landmark series that is every bit as educational and entertaining as the show it chronicles.” —Jeremy Kinser, senior editor, The Advocate “Caseen not only reveals the genius behind Paul Reubens’ pop culture creation, but also takes us inside Pee-wee’s Playhouse to meet the fascinating team that brought it to life.” —Noah Levy, senior news editor, In Touch Weekly “A must for any Pee-wee fan. Gaines unearths a significant moment in pop culture with the care of an archaeologist, and the vibrant humor of Pee-wee himself.” —John Ortved, author of The Simpsons: An Uncensored, Unauthorized History This book is not affiliated with Pee-wee’s Playhouse nor is it endorsed or approved by Paul Reubens

Book Cosmopolitanism  Educational  Philosophical and Historical Perspectives

Download or read book Cosmopolitanism Educational Philosophical and Historical Perspectives written by Marianna Papastephanou and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses perspectives on cosmopolitanism, as well as concepts and the work of key figures. For example, it examines educational, philosophical and historical perspectives, deals with such issues as citizenship, internationalism, patriotism, globalization, hegemony and many other topics. It brings together works on Alain Badiou, Giorgio Agamben, Ernesto Laclau, Bruno Latour and Homi Bhabha with works on Whitman, Kant, Martha Nussbaum, Thomas Pogge, Onora O’Neill and Philippe Van Parijs. The book engages in the new dialogue on cosmopolitanism from a variety of outlooks. It advances that dialogue and problematizes it through as yet unexplored paths. Its chapters respond to the intricacies of current discourses on cosmopolitanism and related notions and take into account both affirmative and negative stances to cosmopolitanism and its educational significance. Overall, the book relies on such stances as background material in order to transcend them and offer fresh perspectives on cosmopolitan stakes. It makes use of a recent tendency in political philosophical and cultural-critical debates that opens a possibility of more nuanced approaches to old ‘-isms’.

Book Refiguring East Asian Religious Art

Download or read book Refiguring East Asian Religious Art written by Wu Hung and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Refiguring East Asian Religious Art consists of twelve chapters organized in four sections, titled "Death of the Buddha and Buddhist Icons," "Kinship and Commemoration," "Filial Piety and Politics," and "Constructing Ritual Space." Instead of designating self-contained entities, these subtitles point to four general themes of the volume, around which the authors address interrelated issues from different perspectives. Co-editors Paul Copp and Wu Hung have brought together these essays (richly illustrated with images and photos) by leading scholars to compose an outstanding text. This book reflects on the roles that the integration and interpenetration of Buddhist devotion and ancestor veneration played in creating images, objects, and architectural forms in premodern East Asia. These reflections are occasioned by specific historical cases, not motivated by abstract theoretical agendas. The case analyses, in turn, revolve in various degrees around the phenomenon and concept of death, whether the passing of the Buddha, the departure of family members, or the destruction of religious icons"--
