Download or read book Milton s Angels written by Joad Raymond and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-02-25 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milton's Paradise Lost, the most eloquent, most intellectually daring, most learned, and most sublime poem in the English language, is a poem about angels. It is told by and of angels; it relies upon their conflicts, communications, and miscommunications. They are the creatures of Milton's narrative, through which he sets the Fall of humankind against a cosmic background. Milton's angels are real beings, and the stories he tells about them rely on his understanding of what they were and how they acted. While he was unique in the sublimity of his imaginative rendering of angels, he was not alone in writing about them. Several early-modern English poets wrote epics that explore the actions of and grounds of knowledge about angels. Angels were intimately linked to theories of representation, and theology could be a creative force. Natural philosophers and theologians too found it interesting or necessary to explore angel doctrine. Angels did not disappear in Reformation theology: though centuries of Catholic traditions were stripped away, Protestants used them in inventive ways, adapting tradition to new doctrines and to shifting perceptions of the world. Angels continued to inhabit all kinds of writing, and shape the experience and understanding of the world. Milton's Angels: The Early-Modern Imagination explores the fate of angels in Reformation Britain, and shows how and why Paradise Lost is a poem about angels that is both shockingly literal and sublimely imaginative.

Download or read book Angels written by Rev. Msgr. J. Brian Bransfield and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2022-08-26 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angels are all around us. They are not fairy-tale creatures or New Age sprites but powerful beings created by God to reflect his light. And while we often are not aware of them, the angels are deeply interested in us. In Angels: Our Guardians in Spiritual Battle, moral theologian, author, and speaker Msgr. Brian Bransfield teaches us how to recognize the angels present in our lives. Drawing on Scripture, the Church Fathers, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Msgr. Bransfield shows how the angels — the good angels who serve God and the evil angels who fell with Lucifer — influence us in powerful ways. The evil angels are insidious as they seek to lure us into sin and away from God. The good and holy angels help us combat the wiles of the demons and accompany us on our mission of sharing Christ with the world. They serve as God’s humble yet powerful messengers and our guardians in the wilderness of this life, strengthening us against temptation. Ultimately, they lead us to the glory of the Resurrection so that we might share the victory of Jesus over sin and death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book II continues the harrowing story of Alyssalee, once an orphan, now taken under the wing of her new paramilitary family—the Undivine. Maybe it was the draw of being a part of something meaningful, or the pull of her Undivine girlfriend, Sophie, but she was all-in on their mission. Hand in hand, Alyssalee and Sophie face the next chapter of the fleshmonger plague that threatens the Solar Unity. On the one hand, there’s Alyssalee, reckless and unsure of her powerful mind-hacking abilities. And on the other, there’s Sophie’s steadfast love, keeping Alyssalee grounded. Together, they’re a force that transcends the notion that love never dies. Book II unfolds as the fleshmongers deepen their infiltration into the Solar Unity, developing new technologies to possess the innocent and thwart UNUM’s heavy-handed, theocratic rule. The Undivine’s mission to rescue those persecuted under UNUM, is now eclipsed by the battle to save the people’s mortal souls from the depravity of the fleshmongers and the mysterious boss that leads them from the shadows. What started in the immersive game world of Sword of Sanctity as a means to possess players has bled into the real world. Alyssalee, Sophie, Commander Cole, and the Undivine’s Chief Nerd, Bits, return to the game to save lives and get answers. But it’s not just the laity that’s in harm’s way. The boss wants the Undivine eradicated. And now, the dark being’s lust for absolute power leads him to set his sights on Alyssalee. All that Alyssalee knew of what it is to live—to die, to love—is shattered. Confronted by unfathomable supernatural forces, impossible decisions must be made. But how far will Alyssalee go to protect the ones she loves?

Download or read book Angels and Angelology in the Middle Ages written by David Keck and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-07-23 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently angels have made a remarkable comeback in the popular imagination; their real heyday, however, was the Middle Ages. From the great shrines dedicated to Michael the Archangel at Mont-St-Michel and Monte Garano to the elaborate metaphysical speculations of the great thirteenth-century scholastics, angels dominated the physical, temporal, and intellectual landscape of the medieval West. This book offers a full-scale study of angels and angelology in the Middle Ages. Seeking to discover how and why angels became so important in medieval society, David Keck considers a wide range of fascinating questions such as: Why do angels appear on baptismal fonts? How and why did angels become normative for certain members of the church? How did they become a required course of study? Did popular beliefs about angels diverge from the angelologies of the theologians? Why did some heretics claim to derive their authority from heavenly spirits? Keck spreads his net wide in the attempt to catch traces of angels and angelic beliefs in as many portions of the medieval world as possible. Metaphysics and mystery plays, prayers and pilgrimages, Cathars and cathedrals-all these and many more disparate sources taken together reveal a society deeply engaged with angels on all its levels and in some unlikely ways.
