Download or read book Modernist Women Writers and Spirituality written by Elizabeth Anderson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-22 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrating on female modernists specifically, this volume examines spiritual issues and their connections to gender during the modernist period. Scholarly inquiry surrounding women writers and their relation to what Wassily Kandinsky famously hoped would be an ‘Epoch of the Great Spiritual’ has generated myriad contexts for closer analysis including: feminist theology, literary and religious history, psychoanalysis, queer and trauma theory. This book considers canonical authors such as Virginia Woolf while also attending to critically overlooked or poorly understood figures such as H.D., Mary Butts, Rose Macaulay, Evelyn Underhill, Christopher St. John and Dion Fortune. With wide-ranging topics such as the formally innovative poetry of Stevie Smith and Hope Mirrlees to Evelyn Underhill’s mystical treatises and correspondence, this collection of essays aims to grant voices to the mostly forgotten female voices of the modernist period, showing how spirituality played a vital role in their lives and writing.

Download or read book Hollywood Mission written by Steve Cha and published by . This book was released on 2014-12-10 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hollywood Mission: Possible" tells the true story of Steve Cha, a Christian who infiltrated Hollywood with the purpose of carrying out one mission: to bring the light of salvation to those entrapped by the powers of darkness. During his three-year journey, Steve evangelized many famous actors, actresses, directors, and aspirants in Tinsel Town. Though he faced obstacles and threats along the way, Steve survived the mission and now opens up his confidential file for the world to see. Steve's revelatory autobiography recounts how the gospel was shared with celebrities such as Steven Spielberg, Brad Pitt, Harrison Ford, Dan Aykroyd, and many other stars. Unprecedented in the genre, "Hollywood Mission: Possible" will enlighten, humor, shock, and ultimately inspire readers. Its evangelism scenarios provide a solid script for Christians willing to answer God's casting call to bring spiritual light to the entertainment industry, and most importantly to the world. Discussion Guide Included. "Here is the story of one man's testimony in Tinsel Town. Reading Steve's candid and compelling account made me wonder what I would say had I moment to share Christ with Brad Pitt, Kiefer Sutherland, or Tori Spelling." - Robert J. Morgan, Author, Speaker, Pastor "Hollywood continues to set the pace in leading millions in Western culture to think and behave in more godless and self-destructive ways. The brokenness and hopelessness that accompanies Hollywood's philosophy is rarely pondered and less frequently exposed by those within its ranks. I am grateful for Steve Cha's heart, which so passionately desires to see those in today's movie and television industry come to realize their need for the gospel of Jesus Christ. How strategic it is to have those within the industry stand up and unabashedly proclaim the Lordship of Christ in such a needful time." - Dr. Mike Fabarez, Focal Point Ministry "You may not agree with Steve's methods, but this book will motivate you to be a more passionate evangelist. Hollywood Mission: Possible is a fast-moving look at Cha's life, as well as his approach to evangelism, but ultimately it ends up making the reader ask this question: 'Am I doing all I can to reach the lost?'" - Jesse Johnson, Professor of Evangelism, The Master's Seminary "After reading actor Steve Cha's account in Hollywood, I was truly convicted on the opportunities that I miss everyday to share the gospel. It takes cheek to witness in Hollywood and a fearlessness to lose your career for Christ. This memoir will help you rethink the way you approach people and to share the message of Jesus Christ, whether it is in your neighborhood or in tinsel town." - Corine Gatti, Editor, Beliefnet "Whether you are a Christian who shares his/her faith, a Christian who doesn't, or simply a seeking unbeliever, I highly recommend this book. Never before have we witnessed firsthand the gospel being preached behind the scenes on actual movie sets and TV shows " - Jonathan Khan, Outreach Trainer, Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, CA

Download or read book Piercing Red written by Lena Platonos and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poetry of groundbreaking Greek artist Lena Platonos takes center stage in Piercing Red: Collected Poems and Lyrics 1984-2008. Best known for her radical electronic music compositions, her innovative work as a poet has been underacknowledged, in no small part due to writing and singing in her native Greek. This book was put together to rectify this lapse, to help encounter her song lyrics on their own as literary work. Collected here are all the poems Platonos put to music over four decades, appearing for the first time in English thanks to loving translations by Stathis Gourgouris. Careful attention was paid to Platonos's phrasing so that the unique voicings and surrealist imagery would come forth intact. With their rapid-fire juxtapositions and dreamlike narrations, these poems are gestural and performative evocations of the artist's vast inner world. They are performances of her soul in the realm of words.
