Download or read book Navigating African Biblical Hermeneutics written by Madipoane Masenya Ngwan’a Mphahlele and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection interrogates and engages the biblical text, colonial and postcolonial subjectivities and cultural assumptions, as well as lived experiences that encompass varying Africana contexts and Diasporas. In order to do this, it deploys methodologies, exegetical analyses and critical and constructive communal epistemologies. Framed by historical, literary, cultural and theological engagements of issues around wealth and power, gender, sexualities and masculinities, HIV and AIDS, as well as the crises of war and mass violence, the book will be very useful for students, academics, clergy and laity committed to Africana-conscious epistemologies and methodologies, and the impact on biblical studies.
Download or read book My Vanishing African Dreams written by Susan M. Hall and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2017-04-21 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Vanishing African Dreams describes my unusual and exciting life as a woman, both on our cattle ranch where we were traders in beef cattle in Kenya, and my remarkable experiences exploring Kenya’s mostly uninhabited Northern Frontier District. My story includes the mountains I’ve climbed and the dangers of those climbs, as well as treacherous experiences encountering wildlife. I was taught to fly by my father, and during our flying years, survived aircraft accidents and other unforeseen tragedies. My travels to the United States and the adventures there with friends are also included. But my story is really about the never-ending excitement and danger of everyday life in the African wilderness. Even though it is almost 2017, we still get our hot water from lighting a fire in a wood burner to heat it. We collect our rain water off the house roof, which runs along gutters into huge underground storage tanks. We are miles from a shopping centre, and need a 4x4 Land Rover to get anywhere on our dirt roads that are filled with huge potholes.

Download or read book Victorian Animal Dreams written by Deborah Denenholz Morse and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Victorian period witnessed the beginning of a debate on the status of animals that continues today. This volume explicitly acknowledges the way twenty-first-century deliberations about animal rights and the fact of past and prospective animal extinction haunt the discussion of the Victorians' obsession with animals. Combining close attention to historical detail with a sophisticated analytical framework, the contributors examine the various forms of human dominion over animals, including imaginative possession of animals in the realms of fiction, performance, and the visual arts, as well as physical control as manifest in hunting, killing, vivisection and zookeeping. The diverse range of topics, analyzed from a contemporary perspective, makes the volume a significant contribution to Victorian studies. The conclusion by Harriet Ritvo, the pre-eminent authority in the field of Victorian/animal studies, provides valuable insight into the burgeoning field of animal studies and points toward future studies of animals in the Victorian period.

Download or read book Kenya written by Maurice Odhiambo Makoloo and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 2005 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minorities and indigenous peoples in Kenya feel excluded from the economic and political life of the state. They are poorer than the rest of Kenya's population, their rights are not respected and they are rarely included in development of other participatory planning processes. This report discusses the abuse of ethnicity in Kenyan policies, arguing that ethnicity is a card all too often used by Kenyan politicians to favour certain communities over others in the share of the nation's wealth. Kenya: Minorities, Indigenous Peoples and Ethnic Diversity exposes these concerns in detail via the analysis of budgetary expenditure in the poor Turkana region, which is dominated by the minority Turkana people, and in the richer Nyeri region, home of Kenya's current President. The author, Maurice Odhiambo Makoloo, calls for immediate action to address the inequalities and marginalization of communities, as a way of ensuring that Kenya remains free of major conflict. It calls for disaggregated data - by ethnicity and gender - and a new Constitution to devolve power away from the centre, so that minority and indigenous peoples stand to benefit from current and new development programmes.The report argues that Kenya's diversity should be its strength and need not be a threat to national unity. Suppressing and denying ethnic diversity is the quickest route to inter-ethnic conflict and claims of succession. The report calls for urgent action.
