Download or read book The Annotated Book of Mormon written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-09 with total page 907 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first fully annotated, academic edition of the Book of Mormon in its 200-year history. Modelled after the Oxford line of annotated Bibles, it provides readers with the information they need to understand this classic text of American religious history. This edition reformats the complete scriptural text in the manner of modern Bible translations with paragraphs, quotation marks, poetic stanzas, and section headings, all of which clarify the book's complicated narrative structure. As a result, readers experience a more accessible and readable presentation than the standard version. Annotations explain the meaning and context of specific passages, delineate extended arguments, identify rhetorical patterns, explore theological implications, highlight ancient and modern parallels, and point out intertextual connections, particularly with the Bible. The Book of Mormon is subdivided into internal books; in this edition, each book is preceded by an introduction that discusses its key themes and literary features, at the same time offering a quick overview of major figures, events, and sermons. The three primary narrators--Nephi, Mormon, and Moroni--receive special attention. In addition to the annotations, which focus on the text itself, there are twelve general essays that introduce readers to various ongoing conversations about the text. There are also several maps and charts, as well as a comprehensive list of biblical quotations and allusions. The editorial material is informed by contemporary biblical and historical scholarship; while it deals forthrightly with both the strengths and weaknesses of the narrative, it nevertheless treats the Book of Mormon as a sacred text, worthy of careful study and respect.

Book excerpt: This is the story of Mark Little and his first experience with foot slave humiliation, domination and femdom beneath the sexy feet of his new foot mistress. Having always had a foot fetish, but not knowing how to explore it, Mark is about to get a lesson from an experienced teacher.What began as an extreme crush on his English teacher, Ms. Frost, led to his extreme crushing by that same woman not long after his eighteenth birthday and high school graduation. Recovering from an alcohol addiction and being outed as a former centerfold, Ms. Frost left her teaching position to go into sales. Now she is making up for lost time fulfilling her own fantasies by keeping her new foot lave Mark underfoot, where he belongs. After all she's a foot goddess, and he's a worm not worthy to lick her shoes - but she's willing to let him try to earn that honor.Mark and Ms. Frost's post-graduation reunion was unplanned and intense. The woman he fantasized about now has fantasies of her own. This hapless foot slave will be subjected to trampling, humiliation, femdom, BSDM, and extreme foot licking. All of this with a woman twice his age and in her sexual prime. This cougar is a maneater, and she's hungry.If you are in any way offended by trampling, the thought of being used as a human footrest, or being belittled by sexy and powerful women, I advise you to stop reading now.

More specifically, there are intense scenes involving trampling punishment and leash bondage that may be offensive to some.If you are ready to hear Mark's story from his first-person perspective, please continue to chapter 1, where his adventure begins.

Download or read book Flowers Underfoot written by Daniel S. Walker and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 1997 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rich color illustrations and a scholarly text characterize this catalogue of a landmark exhibition of Mughal carpets held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, November 1997-March 1998. Though exquisite, Indian carpets are little known even to carpet experts. This volume (and the exhibition) focus on the 16th to the 18th century, a peak period for stunning works. The text surveys the era in terms of history, the role of commerce, technical characteristics, and the carpets themselves, which exemplify the broad range of imperial and provincial production during the "classical" period of Indian carpet weaving. Carpets are organized by style and pattern and include a group from Kyoto. Three appendices analyze animal fibers and dyes. Oversize (9.50x12.25").
