Download or read book Insanity and Divinity Vol Two written by Pasquale DI RAGO and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-12-10 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a follow up to the first book in the Insanity & Divinity series. It follows a similar format, in that there are no page numbers, but the entries are highlighted and dated so you the reader don't feel totally lost.I believe that books of this nature, are meant to be dipped into, and read as you would an ancient text. Seeing what you want to see, and understanding what you are prepared to accept.Saying that I have tried to use generous spacing, so the arguments read better, and the thread is more prominent, but as I'm rather biased, I can't say that I have succeeded with my experiment by throwing out the rule book.The main thrust of the book, is both philosophical and psychological, being my prime passions, but there are other branches of investigation, for those who maybe put off with these two concerns.All told I believe the book to be an honest representation of a period in my life, where I was still trying to find a voice for my head, heart and hand. As such, I may have revealed more than I realized worthy of attention, and run the risk of being too self-indulgent.But I was being honest, and did try to give a fair account of what matters to me, and still does. I only hope I have not taken too many liberties, or over stayed my welcome. But, never the less, feel that presenting a book of varied interests, may actually allow you to entertain the desire to read the other books in the series, which are in fact broken into categories. Like Religion, Spirituality, Philosophy, Psychology, Contemplation and Autobiography.In the end I pray that you enjoy the book, get some reward for reading it, and come to see that above all Hope sustains us, and always will.

Download or read book Yale Classics Vol 2 written by Lucius Annaeus Seneca and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 5588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is based on the required reading list of Yale Department of Classics. Originally designed for students, this anthology is meant for everyone eager to know more about the history and literature of this period, interested in poetry, philosophy and rhetoric of Ancient Rome. Latin literature is a natural successor of Ancient Greek literature. The beginning of Classic Roman literature dates to 240 BC. From that point on, Latin literature would flourish for the next six centuries. Latin was the language of the ancient Romans, but it was also the lingua franca of Western Europe throughout the Middle Ages. Consequently, Latin Literature outlived the Roman Empire and it included European writers who followed the fall of the Empire, from religious writers like Aquinas, to secular writers like Francis Bacon, Baruch Spinoza, and Isaac Newton. This collection presents all the major Classic Roman authors, including Cicero, Virgil, Ovid and Horace whose work intrigues and fascinates readers until this day. Content: Plautus: Aulularia Amphitryon Terence: Adelphoe Ennius: Annales Catullus: Poems and Fragments Lucretius: On the Nature of Things Julius Caesar: The Civil War Sallust: History of Catiline's Conspiracy Cicero: De Oratore Brutus Horace: The Odes The Epodes The Satires The Epistles The Art of Poetry Virgil: The Aeneid The Georgics Tibullus: Elegies Propertius: Elegies Cornelius Nepos: Lives of Eminent Commanders Ovid: The Metamorphoses Augustus: Res Gestae Divi Augusti Lucius Annaeus Seneca: Moral Letters to Lucilius Lucan: On the Civil War Persius: Satires Petronius: Satyricon Martial: Epigrams Pliny the Younger: Letters Tacitus: The Annals Quintilian: Institutio Oratoria Juvenal: Satires Suetonius: The Twelve Caesars Apuleius: The Metamorphoses Ammianus Marcellinus: The Roman History Saint Augustine of Hippo: The Confessions Claudian: Against Eutropius Boethius: The Consolation of Philosophy Plutarch: The Rise and Fall of Roman Supremacy: Romulus Poplicola Camillus Marcus Cato Lucullus Fabius Crassus Coriolanus Cato the Younger Cicero

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As the psalms are a microcosm of the Old Testament, so the Expositions of the Psalms can be seen as a microcosm of Augustinian thought. In the Book of Psalms are to be found the history of the people of Israel, the theology and spirituality of the Old Covenant, and a treasury of human experience expressed in prayer and poetry. So too does the work of expounding the psalms recapitulate and focus the experiences of Augustine's personal life, his theological reflections and his pastoral concerns as Bishop of Hippo."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Josef Pieper on the Spiritual Life written by Nathaniel A. Warne and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2023-03-15 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warne’s original study provides an insightful analysis of the role of contemplation and creation in the thought of Josef Pieper, illustrating the importance of this practice to earthly happiness and human flourishing. What is the relationship between creation, contemplation, human flourishing, and moral development? Nathaniel Warne’s Josef Pieper on the Spiritual Life offers a sophisticated answer to this question through a systematic analysis of philosopher Josef Pieper’s (1904–1997) thought. Warne’s examination centers on the role of contemplation and creation in Pieper’s thinking, arguing that contemplation of the created order is a key feature of earthly happiness. By emphasizing the importance of contemplation, Pieper illustrates the deep interconnections between ethics, creation, and spirituality. For Warne, to posit a binary between the contemplative life and active life creates a false dichotomy. Following Pieper, Warne claims that theology and spirituality cannot be bracketed from ethics and social action—indeed, our lived experience in the world blurs the lines between these practices. Contemplation and action are closer together than are typically assumed, and they have important implications for both our spiritual development and our engagement with the world around us. Ultimately, Warne’s emphasis on creation and contemplation represents an attempt to resist a view of ethics and the spiritual life that is divorced from our environment. In response to this view, Warne argues that we need a renewed sense that creation and place are important for self-understanding. Contemplation of creation is, fundamentally, a form of communion with God—we thus need a more robust sense of how ethics and politics are rooted in God’s creative action. Taking Pieper as a guide, Warne’s study helps to deepen our thinking about these connections.
