Download or read book William Wilberforce Classic Reprint written by John Stoughton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Wilberforce What they did in Paris does not appear; but we learn that by special invitation they joined the Court at Fon tainbleau, then in all its splendour, under Louis XVI. And Marie Antoinette: and there the beautiful and light-hearted queen, having heard the story about Rheims, rallied her visitors, and asked Wilberforce whether he had lately heard from his friend the Dr. Franklin was then in France, and he received the young Englishman with much interest, as the latter had already expressed his disapproval of war with America. With La Fayette, too, Wilberforce came in contact, and found him assuming republican habits. When the fine ladies of the Court would attempt to drag him to the card-table, he shrugged his shoulders, with an affected contempt for the customs and amusements of the whole regime.

Download or read book A Practical View of Christianity written by William Wilberforce and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2021-04-18 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wilberforce’s classic work, A Practical View of Christianity, is concerned with convincing those who call themselves Christians to pursue “the real nature and principles of the religion which they profess.” Christianity is not a mere morality, to be held in private. Christianity is revelation from God, bringing new rights and correspondent duties. It is an entire way of life that requires diligence and study and that should affect every aspect of the Christian’s public and private life. An index, explanatory notes, scripture references, translations of Latin phrases, bibliographic information, and other helps ensure that this work will be as valuable to today’s reader as it was to those readers who made A Practical View of Christianity a bestseller for fifty years. William Wilberforce (1759-1833) was a member of the British Parliament. He was also affiliated with the Clapham Sect, a group of Evangelicals who were active in public life. He was very instrumental in many social justice issues, including the abolition of slavery in England.

Download or read book The Classics in Black and White written by Kenneth W. Goings and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following emancipation, African Americans continued their quest for an education by constructing schools and colleges for Black students, mainly in the U.S. South, to acquire the tools of literacy, but beyond this, to enroll in courses in the Greek and Latin classics, then the major curriculum at American liberal arts colleges and universities. Classically trained African Americans from the time of the early U.S. republic had made a link between North Africa and the classical world; therefore, from almost the beginning of their quest for a formal education, many African Americans believed that the classics were their rightful legacy. The Classics in Black and White is based extensively on the study of course catalogs of colleges founded for Black people after the Civil War by Black churches, largely White missionary societies and White philanthropic organizations. Kenneth W. Goings and Eugene O’Connor uncover the full extent of the colleges’ classics curriculums and showcase the careers of prominent African American classicists, male and female, and their ultimately unsuccessful struggle to protect the liberal arts from being replaced by Black conservatives and White power brokers with vocational instruction such as woodworking for men and domestic science for women. This move to eliminate classics was in large part motivated by the very success of the colleges’ classics programs. As Goings and O’Connor’s survey of Black colleges’ curriculums and texts reveals, the lessons they taught were about more than declensions and conjugations—they imparted the tools of self-formation and self-affirmation.
Download or read book Protestant Spiritual Traditions Volume Two written by Frank C. Senn and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no single Protestant spirituality but rather Protestant spiritual traditions usually embedded in denominational families that share some basic Protestant principles. These two volumes of Protestant Spiritual Traditions offer essays on twelve traditions written by scholars within those traditions plus a concluding essay that gathers a number of Protestant contributions to Christian spirituality and Western culture under the category of "the body." These thirteen essays discuss the contributions of significant spiritual figures from Martin Luther to Martin Luther King Jr. and offer insights on a range of topics from the theology of the cross to physical fitness.
Download or read book Black Man s Religion written by Glenn Usry and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-09-20 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some say Christianity is white man's religion. . . . And it is true that there is a long and ugly history of abuse of African-Americans at the hands of Anglo Christians. Afrocentric interpretations of history often point to slavery, lynchings and the like as proof that Christianity is inherently antiblack. But Craig Keener and Glen Usry contend that Christianity can be Afrocentric. In this massively researched book, they show that racism is not unique to Christianity. More important, they show how "world history is also our history and the Bible is also our book." Black Man's Religion is one of the first of its kind, a pro-Christian reading of religion and history from a black perspective. Fascinating and compelling, it is must reading for all concerned for African-American culture and issues of faith.
