Through an examination of contemporary visual and literary representations of executions, funerals, processions and ceremonies it brings the often horrific events of the time to life. Honing in on seven real life cases, the author recounts and interprets: * the public autopsy performed on the corpse of Mirabeau * the exhumation and transportation of Voltaire's body to the Pantheon * the public torture, murder and subsequent mutilation of the Princesse de Lamballe * the agonizingly slow death of Robespierre. Anyone who enjoys dazzling cultural history in the vein of Robert Darnton, Carlo Ginzburg and Anthony Grafton will revel in this intelligent and original work.

Book excerpt: Henry Wiseman’s life has been a continuous saga, marked by turbulence and the intrusion of violence and terror. As a child, Henry experienced racism and prejudice firsthand, growing up under the specter of apartheid in segregated South Africa. As a young man, he engaged in a personal crusade to bring about changes in his homeland, and consequently achieved one of the greatest successes of his life, all during his first year as a freshman at Northwestern University, in Evanston, Illinois. Henry later met this beautiful young Jewish woman, Eva Meir, with whom he fell madly in love. They complemented one another’s life, as they committed to each other in marriage and began a family of their own. Henry became an active member of his community and would eventually lead a moderate-size congregation in Evanston, as the pastor of the Second John the Baptist Church of Evanston. In his capacity as a religious leader, Henry found himself drawn into the path of a serial killer who descended on Evanston and unleashed a campaign of terror that led to the kidnapping of two young girls from Henry’s congregation. Henry would eventually offer himself as a hostage and manage to persuade the killer to surrender to the authorities. With time, Henry was able to make good on a promise to his wife to take her on a dream vacation to South Africa and Israel. They were in Israel for only a few days, exploring the wonders of this majestic land, when suddenly they found themselves trapped on a hillside road overlooking the West Bank, as a group of Palestinian terrorists on a mission of vengeance against Israel exploded a deadly biochemical bomb some two hundred yards away from where they stood.

Download or read book Apocalyptic Terror and Millennial Glory written by Ross McCallum Jones and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-02-26 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apocalyptic Terror and Millennial Glory is a commentary on the book of Revelation; a book written to prepare Christians for Jesus’ coming and the Great Tribulation that precedes it. The series of visions is complex, but when complemented by prophetic material from the Old Testament, Jesus’ prophecies, and other Scriptures, a clear chronology is discerned. The text is divided into 80 passages which are presented in two-page studies, with Scripture on the left and commentary on the right. The text is explained clearly and naturally, emphasizing the fact that John’s series of visions is really a picture book, or a series of video clips, with much symbolism and metaphor that needs to be interpreted imaginatively, rather than literally. The Messianic reign on earth following Jesus’ return is regarded as the clear climax; glory for Jesus and glory for the saints. Evidence of a pre-tribulation rapture is scarce; rather, Revelation encourages the saints to faithfully endure persecution, even martyrdom, knowing that they have a glorious future here on earth and on into eternity. The time is drawing near. The nation of Israel is regathered in their land and recently celebrated their 70th anniversary. Globalization is increasing, the gospel is being preached in the whole world, and the 2000th anniversary of the Church is approaching. Anti-Christian forces are everywhere; secular humanism, militant Islam, Chinese and Indian nationalism. In these last days, a clear understanding of the Apocalypse is vital.
Download or read book Dreams of Glory written by Richard K. Fenn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are engaged not in a 'clash of civilizations' but in a sectarian conflict among branches of a single civilization traditionally steeped in apocalyptic imagery and beliefs. Apocalypticism is a religious luxury that modern civilizations can no longer afford. Many would agree that the propagandists of the Christian Right have raised apocalyptic tensions to a dangerous level since 9/11, but in this book Richard Fenn takes on the mainline church leaders for their role in promoting an apocalyptic view of history. Those who keep apocalyptic beliefs in a respectable place in religious faith and practice must bear their share of responsibility for global terror. It is not only tragic but ironic that the churches have given apocalyptic literature such a respectable place in their sacred texts, because the apocalyptic imagination itself has its sources in non-Biblical literature: the Hellenistic prophesies that gave comfort and courage to the victims of war in the near and middle east from the time of Alexander the Great and Darius. Fenn goes on to hold apocalyptic enthusiasts in the mainline churches, as well as on the Right, responsible for keeping old grievances alive in their demands for a day of final reckoning, and he demonstrates that totalitarian and imperial regimes have made effective use of apocalyptic literature to justify their own violence and to terrify their subjects and enemies.

Download or read book How to Overcome the Spirit of Fear written by Evangelist Prophetess Ella Knight and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Evangelist Ella Knight shares the deep, dark valleys of life that God allowed her to travel through. From a rough marriage, severe financial struggles, vicious attacks by evil workers and more, she shares the experiences that almost caused her to go over the edge. But even more, this book is a guide to overcoming the spirit of fear with which Satan wants to suppress us all. Evangelist Knight couldnt understand why our All Wise and Almighty God Jehovah allowed her life to be so hard, difficult and fearful, until the Lord spoke and said unto her You cant lead where you havent been, you cant teach what you dont know and you cant share what you havent experienced. Therefore, she had to go through the obstacles and be attacked by the demons, devils and evil spirits that our Heavenly Father allowed to be laid in her path, to draw her closer to Him. Now she is able to understand, identify and help His people as they go through the attacks that they dont understand. This minister of God never imagined that life could be so fearful, hard, miserable and difficult until God allowed her enemies to come upon her to chase her into the Potter Hands. Now she cant believe the faith and bravery that God has planted in her and the peaceful, prosperous and joyful spirit that now lives within her. In this book, the author shares that journey from fear to fearlessness.
Download or read book The Untold Story of America s First Heroes written by Kris E Serna and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-05-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the devastating attacks on September 11, 2001, a small band of warriors embarked on a mission that would forever change the course of history. They were the Horse Soldiers - elite Special Forces soldiers who rode into battle on horseback, defying the odds and defying expectations to strike fear into the hearts of terrorists and bring hope to a nation in mourning. In "The Untold Story of America's First Heroes," we journey deep into the heart of Afghanistan alongside these fearless warriors, as they navigate treacherous terrain, face off against ruthless enemies, and forge unbreakable bonds of brotherhood in the crucible of combat. Through harrowing firsthand accounts and gripping narrative, we witness the true cost of war - the sacrifices made by those who serve, the losses suffered by those left behind, and the enduring spirit of resilience that sustains them through even the darkest of days. But this is more than just a tale of war - it is a testament to the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and triumph in the face of impossible odds. It is a reminder that heroes come in all shapes and sizes, and that the strength of a nation lies not in its weapons or its wealth, but in the courage and sacrifice of its people. As we honor the legacy of the Horse Soldiers and pay tribute to their courage and sacrifice, let us also heed the call to action that echoes through the pages of this book. Let us remember the lessons they taught us - of courage in the face of fear, of resilience in the face of adversity, and of the unbreakable bonds of brotherhood that unite us all. And let us pledge to never forget the sacrifices made by those who have served our country, and to always strive to uphold the values for which they fought and died. "The Untold Story of America's First Heroes" is a powerful testament to the enduring spirit of the American soldier, and a reminder that, in the darkest of times, even the smallest acts of courage can shine as beacons of hope for a brighter tomorrow.
