Book Description
"In 1869, Concordia, Kansas, was declared the county seat of what would become Cloud County. At first, the town existed only on paper as a project being pushed by James M. Hagaman and a small group of partners. Once development started, Concordia rapidly grew to become a center of commerce south of the Republican River that eventually attracted four railroad lines. It became a town of landmarks, including several famous hotels, two opera houses, Nazareth Convent, and a thriving downtown area. Characters in the story of Concordia include French Canadian immigrants, nuns, pilots, quarreling newspaper editors, German prisoners of war, and politician Frank Carlson. Readers can enjoy visiting the community's past in the pages of Images of America: Concordia. Dena Bisnette is a native of Concordia with a background in newspaper journalism. She is a member of the Cloud County and Harvey County Historical Societies and enjoys history-related volunteer work. Joe Gilliam is her husband and technical assistant. They currently reside in Newton, Kansas, the subject of their previous Arcadia Publishing book, Images of America: Newton."--Cover, p. 4

Concordia Discors
Author: Andrew Scholtz
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
Writing to a friend, Horace describes the man as fascinated by "the discordant harmony of the cosmos, its purpose and power." Andrew Scholtz takes this notion of "discordant harmony" and argues for it as an aesthetic principle where classical Athenian literature addresses politics in the idiom of sexual desire. His approach is an untried one for this kind of topic. Drawing on theorists of the sociality of language, Scholtz shows how eros, consuming, destabilizing desire, became a vehicle for exploring and exploiting dissonance within the songs Athenians sang about themselves. Thus he shows how societal tension and instability could register as an ideologically charged polyphony in works like the Periclean Funeral Oration, Aristophanes' Knights, and Xenophon's Symposium.

Book Description
"This commentary on the epistle of James provides an original translation, meticulous grammatical analysis of the Greek text, and theological exposition addressing perpetual issues in the life of the church and highlighting the enduring relevance of this epistle for Christians amid trials. The author presents careful research into the historical context, purpose, structure, and message of James, which has often been misunderstood, notably in the Lutheran tradition. Dr. Giese offers a positive, corrective interpretation. The overarching theme of James is "the gifts of the giving God and their use." James 1:16-18 stands as the theological center of the book: the eschatological gift of rebirth in Jesus Christ, to be firstfruits of the new creation, establishes the right use of all other divine gifts"--
