Book Description
„Această carte este o înregistrare, minim structurată – cât pentru a fi, totuşi, o carte – a gândurilor, temerilor, speranțelor şi sfaturilor fiecărui autor şi fiecărei autoare, în domeniul profesional care îi este cel mai familiar, brodate ca variațiuni pe tema crizei şi a consecințelor ei. Acele lucruri care – însumate, în interacțiunea complexă şi greu descriptibilă dintre ele – vor modela lumea de mâine, lumea de după pandemie.” ‒ Olivia Toderean „Una dintre primele culegeri sistematizate de lucrări analitice pe tema crizei actuale, această carte vine la un moment cât se poate de oportun şi este de înaltă valoare. Deşi autorii cărţii sunt cu toţii profesionişti cu foarte multă experienţă, fiecare în domeniul său, cred că este o dovadă de curaj să scrii atât de cuprinzător pe o temă care este încă, în mare măsură, o „ţintă mişcătoare“. De aceea, iniţiativa este cu atât mai valoroasă cu cât oferă decidenţilor diferite unghiuri de abordare, avertizări timpurii şi recomandări de acţiune politică. (…) Acest lucru este esenţial pentru a putea face faţă de o manieră mai bine informată, complexă şi coordonată valului de provocări care îi va urma crizei.” ‒ Wolfgang Ischinger „Această pandemie a provocat nu numai îmbolnăviri, izolare, carantină, restricţii de tot felul, îngrijorare, agitaţie, negare şi moarte, ci şi o efervescenţă intelectuală deosebită. (…) Aşa că specialiştii în munca intelectuală au avut timp să întoarcă această criză pe toate părţile, să îi caute antecedente, să compare, să aducă argumente sau contraargumente, să constate şi să prevadă. La fel fac şi autorii acestei admirabile cărţi, care își pun întrebări, elaborează strategii, caută soluţii, formulează ipoteze şi au, rareori, certitudini. (…) Dar, fiind de acord că lumea de după pandemie nu va mai fi – cel puţin pentru o vreme – aceeaşi cu cea dinainte, cred că avem, ca intelectuali, o mare responsabilitate: să nu permitem ca schimbările să altereze lumea, s-o împingă spre criză perpetuă şi suferinţă, ci să lucrăm cu toţii ca să fie o lume mai bună.” ‒ Ioan Aurel Pop

Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
The tale of a legendary scholar, an unsolved murder, and the mysterious documents that may connect them In early 1991, Ioan Culianu was on the precipice of a brilliant academic career. Culianu had fled his native Romania and established himself as a widely admired scholar at just forty-one years of age. He was teaching at the University of Chicago Divinity School where he was seen as the heir apparent to his mentor, Mircea Eliade, a fellow Romanian expatriate and the founding father of the field of religious studies, who had died a few years earlier. But then Culianu began to receive threatening messages. As his fears grew, he asked a colleague to hold onto some papers for safekeeping. A week later, Culianu was in a Divinity School men's room when someone fired a bullet into the back of his head, killing him instantly. The case was never solved, though the prevailing theory is that Culianu was targeted by the Romanian secret police as a result of critical articles he wrote after the fall of dictator Nicolae Ceausescu. What was in those mysterious papers? And what connection might they have to Culianu's death? The papers eventually passed into the hands of Bruce Lincoln, and their story is at the heart of this book. The documents were English translations of articles that Eliade had written in the 1930s, some of which voiced Eliade's support for the Iron Guard, Romania's virulently anti-Semitic mystical fascist movement. Culianu had sought to publish some of these articles but encountered fierce resistance from Eliade's widow. In this book, author Bruce Lincoln explores what the articles reveal about Eliade's past, his subsequent efforts to conceal that past, his complex relations with Culianu, and the possible motives for Culianu's shocking murder.

Languages : en
Pages : 542
Book Description
You’ve heard the story before: an orphaned boy, raised by a wise old man, comes to a fuller knowledge of his magic and uses it to fight the great evil threatening his world. But what if that hero were destined to become the new dark lord? The Academy of Chaenbalu has stood against magic for centuries. Hidden from the world, acting from the shadows, it trains its students to detect and retrieve magic artifacts, which it jealously guards from the misuse of others. Because magic is dangerous: something that heals can also harm, and a power that aids one person may destroy another. Of the academy’s many students, only the most skilled can become avatars—warrior thieves, capable of infiltrating the most heavily guarded vaults—and only the most determined can be trusted to resist the lure of magic. More than anything, Annev de Breth wants to become one of them. But Annev carries a secret. Unlike his classmates who were stolen as infants from the capital city, Annev was born in the village of Chaenbalu, was believed to be executed, and then unknowingly raised by his parents’ killers. Seventeen years later, he struggles with the burdens of a forbidden magic, a forgotten heritage, and a secret deformity. When Annev is subsequently caught between the warring ideologies of his priestly mentor and the Academy’s masters, he must finally decide whether to accept the truth of who he really is ... or embrace the darker truth of what he may one day become.

The Fascist Faith of the Legion "Archangel Michael" in Romania, 1927–1941
Author: Constantin Iordachi
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 0429765800
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 524
Book Description
The Fascist Faith of the Legion "Archangel Michael" in Romania, 1927–1941 engages critically with recent works on fascism, totalitarianism, and religion, and advances an original theoretical and methodological approach to fascism as a political faith. On this basis, the book constructs an innovative comparative research framework for reconceptualizing the history of the Legion "Archangel Michael" in Romania, 1927–1941. It contends that the Legion put forward a palingenetic political faith of a theological type, called Legionarism. To provide a comprehensive analysis of the origins, main features, mechanisms of institutionalization, and demise of this self-proclaimed salvific political faith, the book documents the palingenetic foundations of the Legionary faith, the syncretism between fascist and Christian rites and rituals, and the intricate relationship between the Legion and the Orthodox Church and its dogma. The book documents three main sacrificial strategies employed by the Legion to "re-evangelize" the people in the new faith: (1) the appropriation of the cult of the fallen soldiers; (2) terrorist missions meant to create fascist heroes through violent sacrifice; and (3) sanctification through heroic fight for Christianity in the Spanish Civil War, in an attempt to link Legionarism with the transnational crusade against "Judeo-Bolshevism." As well as providing a detailed historical and interpretive account of the Legion, the book makes a significant contribution to debates about defining fascism and its relation to religion. It also provides novel comparative perspectives for studying other attempts at constructing fascist faiths in interwar Europe, most notably in Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany but also in Central and Eastern Europe. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of fascism, Romanian studies, politics and religion, political theory, totalitarianism, youth radicalization, violence, and the emergence of terrorism.
