Book Description
This book explores the much debated relation of language and bodily experience (i.e. the 'flesh'), considering in particular how poetry functions as revelatory discourse and thus relates to the formal horizon of theological inquiry. The central thematic focus is around a 'phenomenology of the flesh' as that which connects us with the world, being the site of perception and feeling, joy and suffering, and of life itself in all its vulnerability. The voices represented in this collection reflect interdisciplinary methods of interpretation and broadly ecumenical sensibilities, focusing attention on such matters as the revelatory nature of language in general and poetic language in particular, the function of poetry in society, the question of Incarnation and its relation to language and the poetic arts, the kenosis of the Word, and human embodiment in relation to the word 'enfleshed' in poetry.

Book Description
How to turn your mournful nights into delightful mornings? How to feel happiness in sickness? How to turn away from judgements and obnoxious looks? How to turn survival into a living? How to move an inch in trials? All this can be accomplished if we have faith and willingness to change. Revelations is a collection of poems to envision human life with lost hope, happiness and dreams. A sudden encounter with failure, sadness, sickness or lost love detaches a person from his inner-self. In times of uncertainty, when endless fears give birth to spiritual deviations and suspicion fills life, when lack of spirit and solitude results in insane behavior and there is nowhere to escape, we search for respite and eternal peace and tend to settle at a place where voices find a room to yell. This book will take you through a series of sacred emotions that we all feel at some point. Draw that inspiration from regretful circumstance of your life and go for what you have never done before. This book will help you admire the little things in life and discover life like never before.

Book Description
About seventy years after the death of Jesus, John of Patmos sent visionary messages to Christians in seven cities of western Asia Minor. These messages would eventually become part of the New Testament canon, as The Book of Revelation. What was John's message? What was its literary form? Did he write to a persecuted minority or to Christians enjoying the social and material benefits of the Roman Empire? In search of answers to these penetrating questions, Thompson critically examines the language, literature, history, and social setting of the Book of the Apocalypse. Following a discussion of the importance of the genre apocalypse, he closely analyzes the form and structure of the Revelation, its narrative and metaphoric unity, the world created through John's visions, and the social conditions of the empire in which John wrote. He offers an unprecedented interpretation of the role of boundaries in Revelation, a reassessment of the reign of the Emperor Domitian, and a view of tribulation that integrates the literary vision of Revelation with the reality of the lives of ordinary people in a Roman province. Throughout his study, Thompson argues that the language of Revelation joins the ordinary to the extra-ordinary, earth to heaven, and local conditions to supra-human processes.
