Download or read book Tradition as Mediation Louis I Kahn written by Dana Margalith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-11 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores Louis I. Kahn's approach to tradition as revealed in two of his important, unbuilt, projects. Focusing on Kahn's designs for the Dominican Motherhouse of St. Catherine de Ricci, Media, Pennsylvania (1965-1969), and the Hurva Synagogue, Jerusalem, Israel (1967-1974), the book challenges prevailing aesthetic and methodological assessments of Kahn's use of tradition. It reveals how an authentic and critical theoretical-historical and humanistic study of tradition nourished Kahn's designs, enabling him to mediate historical rituals, ideas and beliefs – and to develop innovative designs rooted deep in human culture while addressing real modern concerns. The book evaluates Kahn's works as a creative recreation and re-interpretation of the past, shedding light on the potential value of the meaningful consideration of tradition in modern times.

Book excerpt: The Cloud Sign Miracle tells the true story of a miraculous answer to a prayer for direction in the authors life at a time of substantial indecision and anxiety. Included in the book are some photographs taken at the beach that happened to capture images appearing to be miraculous. Also included is a testimony of growth in faith and understanding of Gods love and presence with us human beings here on Gods planet, and that God indeed still answers prayerseven in this modern ageas God promised in His Holy Bible, thousands of years ago. Ive known David Blanco for well over 50 years. His distinguished career as the head of a significant Law Firm establishes his credentials. More than that, however, David is a man of faith. God is forever speaking to His creation but most of us miss the communication. We have allowed the world to stuff us into the left side of our brains so that we tend to measure truth only in terms of height, width, depth, time and motion. There is far more reality out there beyond the senses than within the senses, and David bears witness to this in this life changing story. This book can heighten your own awareness of a God who loves you and who wants to speak to you in so many ways. Robert G. Tuttle, Jr. Ph.D. Emeritus Professor of World Christianity Asbury Theological Seminary

By the age of 21 she had co-founded the feminist magazine Spare Riband the feminist publishing house Virago, whilst experimenting with drugs, sex and booze. But she wanted more: more experience, more travel, more passion. An epic motorcycle trip through Asia with her boyfriend John Steinbeck Jr. ended in a Thai jail. But drugs weren't her real problem. Alcohol was. Drinking seemed to defeat the demons in her psyche - until it became clear that drinking was her biggest demon of all. How had a nice country girl turned into a drunk? Now a well-known journalist, ex-newspaper editor and chairman of the London Food Board, Rosie made it from the top to the bottom and back again. In this account of her life, she never shirks from the truth about herself - and in her honesty she gives hope to other women with addictions, addressing the hellish predicament of the alcoholic woman with passion and candour.

Book excerpt: This is a book about MY growth story, my "changing" story, from selfish sinner to a child of God. It is a spiritual growth journey, roots seeking nourishment from the surrounding "ground of life"...will you grow straight or grow crooked? To what are you connected to gain nourishment? Will you produce good fruit? Everyone is on this journey. Find your way to the good life, a life of "Living Water" (John 4:10). This book is your pathway through life's obstacles, the deadness of dry soil and the burdens of life as we all search for meaning. Follow me...you too can come to know Christ, who has already given you a precious gift you cannot buy nor work for nor deserve, if you will receive Jesus in your heart. Only the peace of God that passes all understanding can remove your obstacles; this is done by changing your heart and your mind in Christ (Philippians 4:7). The more you fight against Jesus, reject God and worship at the altar of the "stuff god", the more you desire and strive for what the world is selling. It is a dead ended killer. You will not have peace! You will have more obstacles in your path, your roots will be in rocky ground. Learn a different way to grow; turn to your only Savior - Jesus Christ and become...
