Imperial Cults and the Apocalypse of John: Reading Revelation in the Ruins

Imperial Cults and the Apocalypse of John: Reading Revelation in the Ruins

Publisher: Oxford University Press | ISBN: 0195131533 | edition 2001 | PDF | 304 pages | 11,2 mb

After more than a century of debate about the significance of imperial cults for the interpretation of Revelation, this is the first study to examine both the archaeological evidence and the Biblical text in depth. Friesen argues that a detailed analysis of imperial cults as they were practiced in the first century CE in the region where John was active allows us to understand John's criticism of his society's dominant values. He demonstrates the importance of imperial cults for society at the time when Revelation was written, and shows the ways in which John refuted imperial cosmology through his use of vision, myth, and eschatological expectation.

Surprised by Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church

Surprised by Hope: Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the ChurchPublisher: HarperOne | ISBN: 0061551821 | edition 2008 | PDF | 352 pages | 13,4 mbWright, one of the greatest, and certainly most prolific, Bible scholars in the world, will touch a nerve with this book. What happens when we die? How should we think about heaven, hell, purgatory and eternal life? Wright critiques the views of heaven that have become regnant in Western culture, especially the assumption of the continuance of the soul after death in a sort of blissful non-bodily existence. This is simply not Christian teaching, Wright insists. The New Testament's clear witness is to the resurrection of the body, not the migration of the soul. And not right away, but only when Jesus returns in judgment and glory. The "paradise," the experience of being "with Christ" spoken of occasionally in the scriptures, is a period of waiting for this return.My Filemirror1mirror2mirror3To thank me use my , please!!!!

Slavoj Žižek: live theory By Rex Butler

Slavoj Žižek: live theoryBy Rex Butler

Continuum | 2005 | ISBN 0826469957 | 165 Pages | PDF OCR or DJVU OCR | 7.8 MB or 2.3 MB

Slavoj Zizek is undoubtedly one of the world's leading cultural critics. His witty, psychoanalytically-inspired analyses of contemporary society have almost single-handedly revived the notion of ideology. His brilliant commentaries on the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan and the 19th century German Idealists have brought alive their often difficult ideas for a new generation of readers. But does Zizek have anything to say in his own right? Is there a system of thought that we can properly call "Zizekian"? This book argues that there is, through a reading of two terms in his work - the master-signifier and the act. Featuring an interview with Zizek himself, Slavoj Zizek: Live Theory presents a snapshot of the Zizek system ideal for undergraduates in social and cultural theory and philosophy.

Michel Foucault, Histoire de la folie à l'âge classique

Michel Foucault, Histoire de la folie à l'âge classiqueGallimard | 1976 | ISBN 2070295826 | 688 Pages | French | PDF OCR | 9 MBVoici sans conteste la plus littéraire des oeuvres de Michel Foucault. L'auteur reconnaissait lui-même avoir travaillé le style de ce texte comme il ne l'avait jamais fait pour aucun autre. Remarquable pour ses qualités formelles, l'ouvrage l'est aussi pour l'originalité de sa méthode. En effet, Foucault n'entreprend de faire l'histoire de la folie que pour dessiner les contours d'une histoire de la rationalité. Il ne s'agit pas de désigner la folie du point de vue de la raison, mais de découvrir le champ de la rationalité du point de vue de ce qu'il ne comprend pas et exclut. Les plus belles pages, à cet égard, sont celles où Foucault redonne au fou la parole, de telle sorte que c'est à lui de désigner comme autre le discours de la raison et de révéler l'étrangeté du monde qui le refuse. Antonin Artaud, s'exprimant des bords de l'abîme où son oeuvre s'est échouée ou encore Hölderlin, nous en apprennent ainsi davantage sur les limites de la raison que sur les profondeurs du gouffre où ils menacent de se perdre.Rapidshare | HotfilePlease add more mirrors
