Book Prophecy  Piety  and Profits

Download or read book Prophecy Piety and Profits written by Ayman Reda and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines, in greater depth than the existing literature, the history of Islamic economic thought. It seeks to introduce Islamic views to debates surrounding critical economic concepts, such as scarcity, wealth, poverty, charity, usury, self-interest, rationality, and markets. It does so through a comparative analysis with the views of Judaic, Christian, and secular economic thought. “Prophecy” is meant to signify the theoretical dimension of religion, while “piety” represents its practical element; neither part is feasible without the other. Together, prophecy and piety inform the Islamic view of economic concepts and phenomena. This view seeks to adjust our approach to profits, both in this world and the next, and seeks to reexamine what is truly profitable and worthy of sacrifice.

Book excerpt: Max Webers The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism has been applied to many areas of study, including the Puritans of New England. Many scholars have argued that it was the ascetic and devout Protestantism of the Puritans that led to the rise of capitalism in the New World, yet recently this narrative has come under increased scrutiny. The current study has sought to demonstrate that the rise of capitalism in the Massachusetts Bay Colony came not as a result of the work of the religiously orthodox Puritans who regarded their settlement to be a city on a hill, but rather as a result of the lives and careers of merchant proto-capitalists. These merchants, or prominent men of affairs, established Boston as a major trading port on the international market, inhabiting a trade that in the Bay Colony was dominated exclusively by men. These men possessed links across the transatlantic world, had high views of their own decision-making abilities, and were often religiously unorthodox. Relying upon studies of the development of European and transatlantic capitalism, studies of other New World colonies, the Antinomian Crisis of 1636, and writings of individual merchants, this paper argues for a deeper understanding of the complexities of the early-modern world economy and the rise of merchant capitalism in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Book Performing Piety

  • Author : Elaine A. Pena
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2011-06-12
  • ISBN : 0520948807
  • Pages : 235 pages

Download or read book Performing Piety written by Elaine A. Pena and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-06-12 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Virgin of Guadalupe, though quintessentially Mexican, inspires devotion throughout the Americas and around the world. This study sheds new light on the long-standing transnational dimensions of Guadalupan worship by examining the production of sacred space in three disparate but interconnected locations—at the sacred space known as Tepeyac in Mexico City, at its replica in Des Plaines, Illinois, and at a sidewalk shrine constructed by Mexican nationals in Chicago. Weaving together rich on-the-ground observations with insights drawn from performance studies, Elaine A. Peña demonstrates how devotees’ rituals—pilgrimage, prayers, and festivals—develop, sustain, and legitimize these sacred spaces. Interdisciplinary in scope, Performing Piety paints a nuanced picture of the lived experience of Guadalupan devotion in which different forms of knowing, socio-economic and political coping tactics, conceptions of history, and faith-based traditions circulate within and between sacred spaces.
