Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Comment Dieu Voit le Monde" est un message de paix sur la terre, une invitation aux chrétiens et au monde à devenir pacifi que et doux comme les anges, une invitation à l'humanité à devenir compatissante et solidaire pour combattre la pollution et le réchauffement de la terre. "Comment Dieu Voit le Monde", c'est la Bible, la philosophie occidentale, les mathématiques, la littérature, la science, la vie. Le livre est unique et révolutionnaire dans l'histoire de l'humanité parce que l'auteur utilize le raisonnement mathématique pour prouver les vérités en religion, en philosophie, et sur la vie. L'auteur est un défenseur de la civilisation de la renaissance et de la croissance zéro comme le recommandait le Club de Rome dans le livre intitulé "Halte à la croissance". L'auteur explique les mystères de Satan et du péché original en utilisant le personnalisme, la phénoménologie, l'existentialisme, et les mathématiques. Les mathématiques sont la logique et l'art de raisonner. L'auteur démontre mathématiquement et bibliquement qu'un chrétien est un saint, un philosophe, et un communiste. C'est-à-dire que l'humanité doit devenir communiste pour espérer résoudre les problèmes de la pollution, du chômage, de la violence, de la pauvreté, de la santé, des guerres etc. C'est-à-dire que l'humanité doit devenir communiste si elle veut survivre.
Download or read book Picturing Shakespeare written by Jean-Louis CLARET and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2024-05-07 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the capacity of Shakespeare’s texts – obviously destined for stage performances – to generate images and mental colours in the readers’ and in the spectators’ minds. Such notions as Ut pictura poesis and the paragoneare discussed in the first part of this book, along with the function and nature of colours. After considering the sets of correspondences and the major differences between texts and images, the author presents and analyzes some of his own illustrations of Shakespearean characters. Jean-Louis Claret, both a university professor specialized in Shakespeare’s theatre and an illustrator, proposes to shed light on the process that led him from the perusal of the written text to the visualization of visages. The voice of poets is unconventionally called upon to shed light on the complex mechanisms he describes.

Download or read book Out of the Dark Night written by Achille Mbembe and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achille Mbembe is one of the world’s most profound critics of colonialism and its consequences, a major figure in the emergence of a new wave of French critical theory. His writings examine the complexities of decolonization for African subjectivities and the possibilities emerging in its wake. In Out of the Dark Night, he offers a rich analysis of the paradoxes of the postcolonial moment that points toward new liberatory models of community, humanity, and planetarity. In a nuanced consideration of the African experience, Mbembe makes sweeping interventions into debates about citizenship, identity, democracy, and modernity. He eruditely ranges across European and African thought to provide a powerful assessment of common ways of writing and thinking about the world. Mbembe criticizes the blinders of European intellectuals, analyzing France’s failure to heed postcolonial critiques of ongoing exclusions masked by pretenses of universalism. He develops a new reading of African modernity that further develops the notion of Afropolitanism, a novel way of being in the world that has arisen in decolonized Africa in the midst of both destruction and the birth of new societies. Out of the Dark Night reconstructs critical theory’s historical and philosophical framework for understanding colonial and postcolonial events and expands our sense of the futures made possible by decolonization.

Download or read book Art of the Devil written by Arturo Graf and published by Parkstone International. This book was released on 2023-12-28 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Devil holds the strings which move us!” (Charles Baudelaire, The Flowers of Evil, 1857.) Satan, Beelzebub, Lucifer... the Devil has many names and faces, all of which have always served artists as a source of inspiration. Often commissioned by religious leaders as images of fear or veneration, depending on the society, representations of the underworld served to instruct believers and lead them along the path of righteousness. For other artists, such as Hieronymus Bosch, they provided a means of denouncing the moral decrepitude of one’s contemporaries. In the same way, literature dealing with the Devil has long offered inspiration to artists wishing to exorcise evil through images, especially the works of Dante and Goethe. In the 19th century, romanticism, attracted by the mysterious and expressive potential of the theme, continued to glorify the malevolent. Auguste Rodin’s The Gates of Hell, the monumental, tormented work of a lifetime, perfectly illustrates this passion for evil, but also reveals the reason for this fascination. Indeed, what could be more captivating for a man than to test his mastery by evoking the beauty of the ugly and the diabolic?
