Pagans and Christians in the Late Roman Empire
Author: Marianne Saghy
Publisher: Central European University Press
ISBN: 9633862558
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Do the terms ?pagan? and ?Christian,? ?transition from paganism to Christianity? still hold as explanatory devices to apply to the political, religious and cultural transformation experienced Empire-wise? Revisiting ?pagans? and ?Christians? in Late Antiquity has been a fertile site of scholarship in recent years: the paradigm shift in the interpretation of the relations between ?pagans? and ?Christians? replaced the old ?conflict model? with a subtler, complex approach and triggered the upsurge of new explanatory models such as multiculturalism, cohabitation, cooperation, identity, or group cohesion. This collection of essays, inscribes itself into the revisionist discussion of pagan-Christian relations over a broad territory and time-span, the Roman Empire from the fourth to the eighth century. A set of papers argues that if ?paganism? had never been fully extirpated or denied by the multiethnic educated elite that managed the Roman Empire, ?Christianity? came to be presented by the same elite as providing a way for a wider group of people to combine true philosophy and right religion. The speed with which this happened is just as remarkable as the long persistence of paganism after the sea-change of the fourth century that made Christianity the official religion of the State. For a long time afterwards, ?pagans? and ?Christians? lived ?in between? polytheistic and monotheist traditions and disputed Classical and non-Classical legacies. ÿ

Littoral of the Letter
Author: Gabriel Riera
Publisher: Bucknell University Press
ISBN: 9780838756652
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Littoral of the Letter is the first full-fledged study in English of the work of the late Argentine author Juan Jose Saer (1937-2005), who was highly regarded as Argentina's best living novelist, a continuator of Burgess' literary legacy. Characterized by an uncommon coherence and rigor, Juan Jose Saer's writing defies simple categories. In both his fictional and essayistic writing, Saer defamiliarizes the reader by questioning some of his most cherished certainties, especially those having to do with the role ascribed to Latin American literature, the uses of prose and poetry in the present, and the relation between language and the mass media. By questioning the assimilation of prose theory and the novel theory dictated by pragmatic needs of the state and the market, Saer produces a change in the function of narrative language that allows him to start where more traditional forms of realism end: the unsayable. The purpose of the book is to make explicit Saer's procedures, the main coordinates of his poetics and to reflect on the situation of literature in an age dominated by images and the total cultural phenomenon.

La Purificación del Corazón
Author: Hamza Yusuf
Publisher: eBooks2go, Inc.
ISBN: 1618130943
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
La diferencia entre alguien cuyo corazón está purificado y sano y alguien cuyo corazón es impuro y corrupto: La gente impura oprime, y los de corazón puro no sólo perdonan a sus opresores sino que los elevan en carácter y posición. A fin de purificarnos, debemos empezar por reconocer esta verdad. De esto trata este libroes un libro de auto-purificación y un manual de liberación. Si trabajamos sobre nuestros corazones, si realmente ponemos en práctica lo que aquí se aconseja, empezaremos a ver cambios en nuestras vidas, en nuestro estado, nuestra sociedad, y hasta en la dinámica interna de nuestras familias. Es una bendición contar con esta ciencia de la purificación y que esta enseñanza exista hoy en el mundo. Lo único que necesitamos es tomar en serio estas enseñanzas. Examinemos pues lo que expone aquí este gran sabio y aprendamos acerca de las enfermedades del corazón, examinando su etiología (sus causas), sus señales y síntomas, y, finalmente, cómo tratarlas. Existen dos tipos de tratamiento: el tratamiento teórico, que es comprender la enfermedad en sí, y el tratamiento práctico, que se centra en las fórmulas que debemos aplicar a fin de restablecer la pureza natural del corazón. Si aplicamos las técnicas que han sido elaboradas y impartidas por los grandes sabios de la vasta tradición del Islam, veremos resultados. Pero como ocurre con las recetas médicas, el doctor no puede obligarte a tomar la medicina. Los eruditos expertos en la puri- ficación espiritual nos ofrecen tratamientos extraídos de las enseñanzas del Corán y del modelo ejemplar del Profeta (la paz sea con él). Las enseñanzas están ahí a nuestra disposición. Son claras y funcionan. Sólo queda, pues, que las aprendamos, las apliquemos a nosotros mismos, y las compartamos con otros.
