Canon Fodder
Author: Penny A. Weiss
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 0271076410
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
This book is an exercise in the recovery of historical memory about a set of thinkers who have been forgotten or purposely ignored and, as a result, never made it into the canon of Western political philosophy. Penny Weiss calls them “canon fodder,” recalling the fate of soldiers in war who are treated by their governments and military leaders as expendable. Despite some real progress at recovery over the past few decades, and the now-frequent references to a few female thinkers like Mary Wollstonecraft, Hannah Arendt, and Simone de Beauvoir, the surface has only been scratched, and the rich resources of women’s writings about political ideas remain still largely untapped. Included here, and intended to further whet the palate, are figures from Sei Shōnagon, Christine de Pizan, and Mary Astell to Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Anna Julia Cooper, and Emma Goldman. Restoring female thinkers to the conversation of political philosophy is the primary goal of this book. Part I deploys a range of these thinkers to discuss the nature of political inquiry itself. Part II focuses on alternative approaches to and visions of core political ideas: equality, power, revolution, childhood, and community. While mainly an intellectual act of revival, this book also affects practical political life, because “remote and academic as they sometimes appear, debates about what to include in the canon ultimately touch almost everyone: students handed texts from lists of ‘great books’ to guide them . . . and citizens whose governments justify their actions with ideas from political texts deemed classic."

Languages : en
Pages : 863
Book Description
The cold-hearted man was a cannon fodder. As cannon fodder, the Discipline that was awakened when the apocalypse came was very weak. He was forced to stand at the forefront of combat and lead a life of terror. As cannon fodder, she had no right to like a big boss, so when she saved the boss, she was impersonated. As cannon fodder, even if someone had a heaven-defying magical equipment on them, they would still lose their chance of survival after being framed. As cannon fodder, when one's life was at stake, it was the pig's feet that kicked them into the pile of zombies. Therefore, a cold eyebrow was sad. Even the heavens thought that she was miserable, so they allowed her to be reborn.

The Apocryphal Gospels
Author: Simon Gathercole
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 024134056X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
A new translation of the oldest non-canonical Christian gospels In the early years of Christianity, several groups produced 'hidden' or 'apocryphal' gospels, alternative versions of the story of Christ. Sometimes these texts complemented the four canonical gospels of the New Testament, sometimes they subverted them and often they were completely different. Here, in the widest selection of non-canonical gospels gathered in one volume - which also includes two modern forgeries - we see the young Jesus making live birds from clay, hear his secret words of wisdom, discover gnostic cosmologies and witness the Harrowing of Hell. Preserved by their readers and attacked by their detractors, these gospels shine a fascinating light on the early Christian Church. Translated with an Introduction by Simon Gathercole
