The depth and diversity of perceptual awareness, so steadfast and radiant in American Primitive, continues in Dream Work.

Book The Lumberjack s Dove

    Book Details:
  • Author : GennaRose Nethercott
  • Publisher : HarperCollins
  • Release : 2018-10-02
  • ISBN : 0062853686
  • Pages : 139 pages

Download or read book The Lumberjack s Dove written by GennaRose Nethercott and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ingenious and vividly imagined narrative poem The Lumberjack’s Dove, GennaRose Nethercott describes a woodsman who cuts off his hand with an axe—however, instead of merely being severed, the hand shapeshifts into a dove. Far from representing just an event of pain and loss in the body, this incident spirals outward to explore countless facets of being human, prompting profound reflections on sacrifice and longing, time and memory, and—finally—the act of storytelling itself. The lumberjack, his hand, and the axe that separated the two all become participants in the story, with unique perspectives to share and lessons to impart. “I taught your fathers how to love,” Axe says to the acorns and leaves around her. “I mean to be felled, sliced to lumber, & reassembled into a new body.” Inflected with the uncanny enchantment of modern folklore and animated by the sly shifting of points of view, The Lumberjack’s Dove is wise, richly textured poetry from a boundlessly creative new voice.

Book End of Story

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andrew Perriman
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2019-11-12
  • ISBN : 1532670176
  • Pages : 188 pages

Download or read book End of Story written by Andrew Perriman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an exercise in a thoroughgoing narrative theology. The social and legal validation of same-sex relationships in the West over the last two decades has presented an immense challenge to the church insofar as it seeks to remain faithful to Scripture. But it is not an isolated ethical problem. It is just one element—albeit a very important one—in the much broader, long-term overhaul and reorientation of Western culture after the collapse of the Christian consensus. The forces of history that are driving this transformation, however, have also alerted us to the historical perspectives that constrained biblical thought. Andrew Perriman suggests that Paul’s argument about same-sex behavior, perhaps more clearly than any other issue, highlights the narrative shape of the mission of the early church in the Greek world. By the same token, we must ask how that storyline has been refracted across the boundary of modernity, and how it now shapes the mission of the church as it adapts to its marginalized position in an aggressively secular world.
