Book Christianity and National Identity in Twentieth Century Europe

Download or read book Christianity and National Identity in Twentieth Century Europe written by John Carter Wood and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection explores how Christian individuals and institutions – whether Churches, church-related organisations, clergy, or lay thinkers – combined the topics of faith and national identity in twentieth-century Europe. "National identity" is understood in a broad sense that includes discourses of citizenship, narratives of cultural or linguistic belonging, or attributions of distinct, "national" characteristics. The collection addresses Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox perspectives, considers various geographical contexts, and takes into account processes of cross-national exchange and transfer. It shows how national and denominational identities were often mutually constitutive, at times leading to a strongly exclusionary stance against "other" national or religious groups. In different circumstances, religiously minded thinkers critiqued nationalism, emphasising the universalist strains of their faith, with varying degrees of success. Moreover, throughout the century, and especially since 1945, both church officials and lay Christians have had to come to terms with the relationship between their national and "European" identities and have sought to position themselves within the processes of Europeanisation. Various contexts for the negotiation of faith and nation are addressed: media debates, domestic and international political arenas, inner-denominational and ecumenical movements, church organisations, cosmopolitan intellectual networks and the ideas of individual thinkers.

Book From Benito Mussolini to Hugo Chavez

Download or read book From Benito Mussolini to Hugo Chavez written by Paul Hollander and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-05 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, political dictators were not only popular in their own countries, but were also admired by numerous highly educated and idealistic Western intellectuals. The objects of this political hero-worship included Benito Mussolini, Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Fidel Castro and more recently Hugo Chavez, among others. This book seeks to understand the sources of these misjudgements and misperceptions, the specific appeals of particular dictators, and the part played by their charisma, or pseudo-charisma. It sheds new light not only on the political disposition of numerous Western intellectuals - such as Martin Heidegger, Eric Hobsbawm, Norman Mailer, Ezra Pound, Susan Sontag and George Bernard Shaw - but also on the personality of those political leaders who encouraged, and in some instances helped to design, the cult surrounding their rise to dictatorship.

Book Truth from the Earth

    Book Details:
  • Author : Art Shotwell
  • Publisher : Xlibris Corporation
  • Release : 2015-11-03
  • ISBN : 1514408902
  • Pages : 294 pages

Download or read book Truth from the Earth written by Art Shotwell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in semi-autobiographical style, the book intertwines personal testimony, scripture, and the nature of God. The author shows how seemingly trivial or isolated events combine with sad or challenging circumstances over a period of years or even decades to work together for good according to Romans 8:28. These same events may be key factors necessary for us to experience in order to fulfill the plans and purposes God has for nations or individuals as described in Jeremiah 29:11. The book addresses issues which are either unclear or unmentioned in the Bible. These include the fate of infants or small children who die before having faith or being baptized; what happens to friends, relatives, or others we love who may have gone through life without knowing Christ as their personal savior; and entire populations who have never heard of Christ over many centuries. The book identifies the unpardonable sin in a manner that removes all doubts and questions. The book also confronts serious misinterpretation of scripture in what the author calls Gods Greatest Truth or Satans Greatest Deception. Finally, the author compares the Commentary on Habakkukuncovered in the Dead Sea Scrollsto events in modern history, showing that this prophecy of things which were destined for the last generation have been fulfilled. Additionally, he describes in detail another archeological discovery yet to be revealed which can be verified scientifically and will be incontrovertible proof to Jews and gentiles alike that God is real and Jesus is Lord and Savior.

Book Jung   s Evolving Views of Nazi Germany

Download or read book Jung s Evolving Views of Nazi Germany written by William Schoenl and published by Chiron Publications. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes for the first time Jung’s views of Nazi Germany during the whole period from the Nazi takeover in 1933 to the end of World War II. It brings together the authors’ research in archives and primary sources during the past 10 years. It is untenable to hold that Jung was a "Nazi sympathizer" after Nazi Germany's first year. In spring 1934 he entered into a transition during which he became warier of the Nazis and of statements that might be construed as anti-Semitic. From 1934 to 1939 he became increasingly warier of the Nazis. His views were strongly anti-Nazi in relation to events during World War II. William Schoenl is professor emeritus of history at Michigan State University, where he taught for 45 years. His recent publications include Jung’s Evolving Views of Nazi Germany: From 1936 to the End of World War II, Journal of Analytical Psychology, 59(2), (April 2014) and An Answer to the Question: Was Jung, for a Time, a “Nazi Sympathizer” or Not?, Jung Journal, 6(4), (Fall 2012). His books include C. G. Jung: His Friendships with Mary Mellon and J. B. Priestley (Chiron, 1998). Linda Schoenl, RN, is co-author with William of Jung’s Views of Nazi Germany: The First Year and Jung’s Transition, Journal of Analytical Psychology, (in press). She was a registered nurse in the Regional Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Sparrow Health System, Lansing, Michigan for 37 years. She and William were the Nyaka Aids Orphans Foundation Volunteers of the Year (Uganda 2015).

Bobby Somers and Helene, living dangerously in the French countryside with a group of Resistance fighters, find themselves in great peril. Boots returns from the war in Italy, to the delight of Polly and their two little rascals, twins James and Gemma - but he brings with him a German prisoner who has a horrifying story to tell of the concentration camps.

As plans for the long-awaited invasion of France get under way there is excitement and danger, but love continues to blossom in the most difficult of circumstances.

Elsewhere, the Japanese rule the Americas, Australia, and Asia. Though Japan is the only rival superpower to the Nazi West, their inevitable wars always end in stalemate. The fascist Germans and Japanese suffer much difficulty in maintaining their populations, because of the physical degeneration of their women. The protagonist is an Englishman named Alfred on a German pilgrimage. In Europe, the English are loathed because they were the last opponents of Nazi Germany in the war. Per official history, Hitler is a tall, blond god who personally won the war. Alfred is astounded when shown a secret, historic photograph depicting Hitler and a girl before a crowd. He is shocked that Hitler was a small man with dark hair and a paunch. And his discovery may mean his death...
