Download or read book New Babylonians written by Orit Bashkin and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Iraqi Jews saw themselves as Iraqi patriots, their community—which had existed in Iraq for more than 2,500 years—was displaced following the establishment of the state of Israel. New Babylonians chronicles the lives of these Jews, their urban Arab culture, and their hopes for a democratic nation-state. It studies their ideas about Judaism, Islam, secularism, modernity, and reform, focusing on Iraqi Jews who internalized narratives of Arab and Iraqi nationalisms and on those who turned to communism in the 1940s. As the book reveals, the ultimate displacement of this community was not the result of a perpetual persecution on the part of their Iraqi compatriots, but rather the outcome of misguided state policies during the late 1940s and early 1950s. Sadly, from a dominant mood of coexistence, friendship, and partnership, the impossibility of Arab-Jewish coexistence became the prevailing narrative in the region—and the dominant narrative we have come to know today.

Download or read book New Babylon New Nineveh written by Charles Von Onselen and published by Jonathan Ball Publishers. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available again in a single volume, New Babylon, New Nineveh explores the past struggles of everyday people on the Witwatersrand, South Africa, 1886-1914. This was a period of extraordinary social, political and economic change. Charles van Onselen examines a host of practices, processes and problems which, in many ways, make for startling comparisons with modern-day South Africa. Van Onselen investigates the pervasive, but highly problematic use of alcohol and prostitution, which were used to control both black and white mine workers, by the state and the mine owners. This exploitation of the lifestyle of the single miners later gave way to the official encouragement of working-class family life. This gave rise to the advent of domestic servants and the introduction of a systematic programme of suburbanisation and cheap public transportation. We see how not even these developments were able to protect the poorest and weakest South Africans of the time. Van Onselen explains how Afrikaner unemployment and an affinity for trade unionism were paralleled by further marginalisation, black unemployment and the resultant formation of prison gangs, which flourish even to the present day.

Download or read book New Day in Babylon written by William L. Van Deburg and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1993-09-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most comprehensive account available of the rise and fall of the Black Power Movement and of its dramatic transformation of both African-American and larger American culture. With a gift for storytelling and an ear for street talk, William Van Deburg chronicles a decade of deep change, from the armed struggles of the Black Panther party to the cultural nationalism of artists and writers creating a new aesthetic. Van Deburg contends that although its tactical gains were sometimes short-lived, the Black Power movement did succeed in making a revolution—one in culture and consciousness—that has changed the context of race in America. "New Day in Babylon is an extremely intelligent synthesis, a densely textured evocation of one of American history's most revolutionary transformations in ethnic group consciousness."—Bob Blauner, New York Times Winner of the Gustavus Myers Center Outstanding Book Award, 1993

Download or read book Mystery Babylon written by Jeanne Trovato and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2003-07 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author, Jeanne Trovato writes to reveal the mystery that is recorded in the last book of the Bible called, 'The Revelation of Jesus Christ.' The ultimate focus of this prophecy is the vision, which the apostle John received and writes about. This graphic description is recorded in the seventeenth chapter of Revelation. 'I saw the woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon forehead was a name written, MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.' Who is She? Where is Her place in the scheme of prophetic events? The mystery unfolds, as the author presents the many symbolic visions throughout the book of Revelation. As the angel spoke these words to John saying--'Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgement of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters,' so the author promises to do the same through this prophetic book called, Mystery Babylon.
