Book All about Eve

Download or read book All about Eve written by Eve Arnold and published by teNeues. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Retrospective of a legendary photographer who turns 100 in 2012. Accompanying exhibitions at Camerawork, San Francisco and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Eve Arnold's interest in photography started late with a photo-finishing job in New York City in 1946. A member of Magnum Photos, her list of assignments were a mix of politics, social issues, travel, and current events, with a little glamour thrown in. Arnold is perhaps best known for her images of Marilyn Monroe. She has chronicled figures as diverse as migrant potato workers, heads of state, and screen icons. A blend of exacting technique and moral courage would typify her long career which never settled for clichés or stereotypes. Guided in her own words, this volume features Arnold's iconic photographs as well as many never-before published images. ILLUSTRATIONS: 150 duotone and 10 colour photographs

  • Author : Wm. Paul Young
  • Publisher : Simon and Schuster
  • Release : 2015-09-15
  • ISBN : 1501101382
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book Eve written by Wm. Paul Young and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the twenty-five-million-copy bestseller The Shack comes a captivating new novel destined to be one of the most talked-about books of the decade. Eve is a bold, unprecedented exploration of the Creation narrative, true to the original texts and centuries of scholarship—yet with breathtaking discoveries that challenge traditional beliefs about who we are and how we’re made. Eve opens a refreshing conversation about the equality of men and women within the context of our beginnings, helping us see each other as our Creator does—complete, unique, and not constrained by cultural rules or limitations. When a shipping container washes ashore on an island between our world and the next, John the Collector finds a young woman inside—broken, frozen, and barely alive. With the aid of Healers and Scholars, John oversees her recovery and soon discovers that her genetic code connects her to every known race. No one would guess what her survival will mean… No one but Eve, Mother of the Living, who calls her “daughter” and invites her to witness the truth about her own story—indeed, the truth about us all. As The Shack awakened readers to a personal, non-religious understanding of God, Eve will free us from faulty interpretations that have corrupted human relationships since the Garden of Eden. Thoroughly researched and exquisitely written, Eve is a masterpiece that will inspire readers for generations to come.

Book Encountering Eve s Afterlives

Download or read book Encountering Eve s Afterlives written by Holly Morse and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encountering Eve's Afterlives: A New Reception Critical Approach to Genesis 2-4 aims to destabilize the persistently pessimistic framing of Eve as a highly negative symbol of femininity within Western culture by engaging with marginal, and even heretical, interpretations that focus on more positive aspects of her character. In doing so, this book questions the myth that orthodox, popular readings represent the 'true' meaning of the first woman's story, and explores the possibility that previously ignored or muted rewritings of Eve are in fact equally 'valid' interpretations of the biblical text. By staging encounters between the biblical Eve and re-writings of her story, particularly those that help to challenge the interpretative status quo, this book re-frames the first woman using three key themes from her story: sin, knowledge, and life. Thus, it considers how and why the image of Eve as a dangerous temptress has gained considerably more cultural currency than the equally viable pictures of her as a subversive wise woman or as a mourning mother. The book offers a re-evaluation of the meanings and the myths of Eve, deconstructing the dominance of her cultural incarnation as a predominantly flawed female, and reconstructing a more nuanced presentation of the first woman's role in the Bible and beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the biblical creation account is true, with the origins of Adam and Eve taking place alongside evolution?

Joshua Swamidass explains how it's possible for Adam and Eve to be rightly identified as the ancestors of everyone, opening up new possibilities for understanding Adam and Eve consistent both with current scientific consensus and with traditional readings of Scripture.

Book Eve s Journey

  • Author : Nehama Aschkenasy
  • Publisher : University of Pennsylvania Press
  • Release : 2015-08-12
  • ISBN : 1512800112
  • Pages : 286 pages

Download or read book Eve s Journey written by Nehama Aschkenasy and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2015-08-12 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Eve's Journey, Nehama Aschkenasy traces the migration of several female images and feminine situations from their early appearances in Biblical writings to their incarnations in modern Hebraic literature. Focusing on the evolution of early female archetypes and prototypes, Aschkenasy uncovers the ancient roots of modern female characters and traces the changing cultural perceptions of women in Hebraic letters. The author draws on the vast body of Hebraic literary documents to illustrate how the female character is a mirror of her times as well as being a product of her creator''s imagination and conception of the woman's role in society and in fiction. The historical spectrum, provided by a discussion of Biblical narratives, Midrashic sources, documents of the Jewish mystics, Hasidic tales, and modern Hebrew works, allows an understanding of the metamorphosis that the female figure has experienced in her literary odyssey.

Book excerpt: Duckling is a nickname Lucy has never been able to shake off. And, if she is honest, maybe it suits her. She is not the type to socialise with other people. You might say she is reluctant to leave her nest. Lucy's life is small, but safe. She has a good routine. But all that is about to change. . . When Lucy's neighbour asks her to look after her little girl for a couple of hours - and then does not come back - Lucy is suddenly responsible for someone other than herself. It takes courage to let the outside world in, and Lucy is about to learn there is much more to life - but only if she is brave enough to spread her wings. ________________________________ Praise for Duckling: 'A poignant read' Woman's Own '[I] loved this gorgeous, funny, poignant and very human book' Rowan Coleman 'Underlines the importance of friendship, community and family while maintaining a galloping plot that keeps you hooked until the last page!'

Book The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve

Download or read book The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve written by Stephen Greenblatt and published by Random House. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected as a book of the year 2017 by The Times and Sunday Times What is it about Adam and Eve’s story that fascinates us? What does it tell us about how our species lives, dies, works or has sex? The mythic tale of Adam and Eve has shaped conceptions of human origins and destiny for centuries. Stemming from a few verses in an ancient book, it became not just the foundation of three major world faiths, but has evolved through art, philosophy and science to serve as the mirror in which we seem to glimpse the whole, long history of our fears and desires. In a quest that begins at the dawn of time, Stephen Greenblatt takes us from ancient Babylonia to the forests of east Africa. We meet evolutionary biologists and fossilised ancestors; we grapple with morality and marriage in Milton’s Paradise Lost; and we decide if the Fall is the unvarnished truth or fictional allegory.
