It is a creative and sometimes shocking examination of modern society and the improbable consequences of technological progress. The episodes - typically set in an alternative present, or the near future - usually have a dark and satirical twist that provokes intense question both of the self and society at large. These kind of philosophical provocations are at the very heart of the show.

Download or read book Did God Create The Universe written by Carmelo Santos and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Where does God live?" Has your child ever asked a tough question about life or faith that requires you to explain how your beliefs fit with modern day science? This devotional book for children is unique because it is authored by a mainline protestant pastor, originally trained as a chemist. Rev. Dr. Carmelo Santos integrates science, faith, and ancient wisdom into 40 reflections for children to focus on the wonder and mystery behind everyday life. Weaving together scientific facts with inspiring stories, these reflections offer helpful perspectives to locate God in potentially awkward and inevitable topics (such as evolution vs. creation, the big bang, suffering, divorce, hell, and more). While the language is geared towards children approximately 8 to 12 years old, parents and caregivers of all ages will appreciate this book as a resource to navigate modern day faith. The black and white illustrations by artist Régine Daniels are crisp and appealing to older children. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to children and youth ministries in the Caribbean Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA).
Download or read book Young China written by Mingwei Song and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of youth is among the most dramatic stories of modern China. Since the last years of the Qing dynasty, youth has been made a new agent of history in Chinese intellectuals’ visions of national rejuvenation through such tremendously popular notions as “young China” and “new youth.” The characterization of a young protagonist with a developmental story has also shaped the modern Chinese novel. Young China takes youth as a central literary motif that was profoundly related to the ideas of nationhood and modernity in twentieth-century China. A synthesis of narrative theory and cultural history, it combines historical investigations of the origin and development of the modern Chinese youth discourse with close analyses of the novelistic construction of the Chinese Bildungsroman, which depicts the psychological growth of youth with a symbolic allusion to national rejuvenation. Negotiating between self and society, ideal and action, and form and reality, such a narrative manifests as well as complicates the various political and cultural symbolisms invested in youth through different periods of modern Chinese history. In this story of young China, the restless, elusive, and protean image of youth both perpetuates and problematizes the ideals of national rejuvenation.

Download or read book Greek Reflections on the Nature of Music written by Flora R. Levin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-04-27 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Flora Levin explores how and why music was so important to the ancient Greeks. She examines the distinctions that they drew between the theory of music as an art ruled by number and the theory wherein number is held to be ruled by the art of music. These perspectives generated more expansive theories, particularly the idea that the cosmos is a mirror-image of music's structural elements and, conversely, that music by virtue of its cosmic elements - time, motion, and the continuum - is itself a mirror-image of the cosmos. These opposing perspectives gave rise to two opposing schools of thought, the Pythagorean and the Aristoxenian. Levin argues that the clash between these two schools could never be reconciled because the inherent conflict arises from two different worlds of mathematics. Her book shows how the Greeks' appreciation of the profundity of music's interconnections with philosophy, mathematics, and logic led to groundbreaking intellectual achievements that no civilization has ever matched.
