Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. This book explores how conceptions of episcopacy (government of a church by bishops) shaped the identity of the bishops of France in the wake of the reforming Council of Trent (1545–63). It demonstrates how the episcopate, initially demoralised by the Wars of Religion, developed a powerful ideology of privilege, leadership and pastorate that enabled it to become a flourishing participant in the religious, political and social life of the ancien regime. The book analyses the attitudes of Tridentine bishops towards their office by considering the French episcopate as a recognisable caste, possessing a variety of theological and political principles that allowed it to dominate the French church.

Book excerpt: Thérèse of Lisieux is one of the most popular modern saints in the world, but the details of her life and spirituality are still not widely known and are somewhat of a mystery even to her devoted followers. With over 150 stunning photographs, in-depth text, and plentiful sidebars on history, geography, and themes, this gorgeous work helps us enter into the universe of the greatest saint of modern times to discover the simplicity, yet depth of her daily life and of her relationships, both human and spiritual. It invites us to a personal encounter with Thérèse, who once wrote, I am your sister, your friend; I will always watch over you. It invites us also to discover her appealing and rich spirituality of the little way. Patroness of missions, Doctor of the Church, this Carmelite sister, who died at only twenty-four, has not ceased to surprise us and to spread her powerful message of love and trust across the world. Her whole life of can be encapsulated in her poem Living on Love: a passionate love of Christ lived out in the everyday, in the joys and trials of life, in inner and outer sufferings. Living on love is a spiritual program for life, but to live it requires a special grace for which we must ask, especially through the intercession of the Little Flower of Jesus. This unique, very beautiful and moving work will inspire readers to desire to imitate St. Thérèse in living on love.

Download or read book Les nouveaux urbains dans l espace Sahara Sahel written by Elisabeth Boesen and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2007 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis plusieurs années, l'espace Sahara-Sahel a suscité un véritable intérêt de la part des médias. Cette région du monde est en effet devenue partie intégrante du paysage politique européen. Elle apparaît comme une frontière de plus en plus poreuse entre l'Afrique et l'Europe. Le premier mérite de cet ouvrage est d'attirer notre attention sur le fait que cet espace n'est pas seulement une zone de transit, mais une région habitée par des hommes. Et s'il y a un trait qui caractérise ses habitants, c'est bien leur mobilité. Ce trait justifie l'appellation d'" espace en mouvement" utilisée ici par plusieurs auteurs. Le fait d'en souligner l'unité historico-culturelle et socio-économique est une autre originalité de la publication. Cette idée d'unité contraste avec l'image, pourtant plus répandue, d'une région " entre-deux ", située entre les deux aires géographiques que sont l'Afrique du Nord et l'Afrique subsaharienne. A côté du trait commun de la mobilité, qui rend sujette à question la dichotomie supposée entre nomadisme et sédentarité, les différentes populations de cet espace sont liées en réalité par de multiples relations dans les domaines économique, politique et culturel. Aboutissement d'un colloque qui s'est tenu à Berlin en 2005, les contributions de cet ouvrage développent l'idée que l'unité de l'espace Sahara-Sahel se manifeste avant tout dans les centres urbains et à travers les interactions entre migrants et citadins sédentaires. Les auteurs se sont cependant concentrés sur certains des habitants de la ville, ceux dont le potentiel à façonner les formes urbaines est limité ou n'a pas encore été pris en considération par les chercheurs. Il s'agit notamment des femmes, des jeunes, des nouveaux arrivés ou des gens de passage. A côté des modalités du travail et d'habitation, l'intérêt a porté sur la différence ou l'étrangeté (Fremdheit), sur les manières de les vivre et de les représenter, ou bien de les dissimuler ou de les surmonter.

Download or read book Awake Where You Are written by Martin Aylward and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The body is of course integral to meditation, but there are only a few books that focus this specifically on the body and the meditative experience. Awake Where You Are addresses that need, and additionally integrates psychological concepts, which provides a more familiar entry point for people less familiar with Buddhism. “Embodied awareness is the way back home—intimacy with where and how we are right now, with what is happening and how we are meeting it. My intention is to lead you into the heart of your life. Inside your body, where everything happens—within a quality of listening rather than knowledge, of feeling rather than reaction. This meditative practice is radically transformative.” —Martin Aylward Pulled around by desires and distractions, we’re so easily disconnected from ourselves. Life is happening right in front of us, and within us—but still, we manage to miss so much of it. Awake Where You Are provides the antidote, inviting us to go deep into our own bodies, to inhabit our sensory experience carefully; to learn the art of living from the inside out, and in the process to find ease, clarity, and an authentic, unshakeable freedom. The practices in the book literally bring us back into our skin, where we can reconnect with a more rich, meaningful, and peaceful life. Aylward writes with sophisticated subtlety, as well as the heart-opening simplicity and clarity born of deep experience. And this book is more than a meditation guide—it’s a guide to living an embodied life. You’ll learn about the following areas and practices: - Understanding and liberating our primal human drives. Aylward explains how the three primary drives—survival, sexual, and social—function within us, and how we can engage their energy to explore, understand, and liberate them. - Integrating psychological understanding with meditative practice. Awake Where You Are goes beyond the broad brushstrokes of Buddhist psychology, inviting the reader into an exploration of their own particular psychological history and conditioning. - Investigating the nuances of love. Readers will learn to see the classical Buddhist heart qualities, or brahmaviharas (loving-kindness, compassion, appreciative joy, and equanimity) as distinct flavors of love, and as the natural resting places of a free heart. “Martin is a marvelous teacher and offers us the refreshing wisdom of an embodied life.” —Jack Kornfield, author of No Time Like the Present
