Book Description
In London, 1940, as the German Blitzkrieg rains destruction down in London, a bomb drops and destroys the makeshift laboratory of an aged sorcerer/scientist who calls himself Malcolm Schreck. In desperation, Schreck travels to the estate of a minor English lord with a tawdry interest in the occult. There, instead of knowledge, Schreck brings only danger and misery to both the lord and the common English pimp in his employ, Arthur Drake. Taking an unusual interest in Drake, Schreck follows the pair as they make their escape to America. In a small Michigan town, fifty years later, both Malcolm Schreck and Arthur Drake will discover the true nature of evil and the terrifying price of immortality. With only two wildly disparate young men to aid them, Schreck and Drake resume their battle, and a new version of hell rises up in the quiet Midwest.

Imagining the Soul in Premodern Literature
Author: Abe Davies
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030663337
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
This book is a study of ghostly matters - of the soul - in literature spanning the tenth century and the age of Shakespeare. All people, according to John Donne, ‘constantly beleeve’ that they have an immortal soul. But he also reflects that in fact there is nothing ‘so well established as constrains us to beleeve, both that the soul is immortall, and that every particular man hath such a soul’. In understanding the question of man's disembodied part as at once fundamental and fundamentally uncertain he was entirely of his time, and Imagining the Soul in Premodern Literature considers this fraught, shifting, yet uniquely compelling entity in the context of the literary forms and effects involved in its representation. Gruesome medieval dialogues between damned souls and worm-eaten bodies; verse and prose works by Donne, René Descartes, Margaret Cavendish and Andrew Marvell; a profusion of sonnet sequences, sermons, manuals of instruction and travelogues; Hamlet and its natural philosophical thinking about the apparently disembodied soul haunting Elsinore: these chapters range across all this and more, offering a rigorous yet accessible account of an essential aspect of premodern literature that will be of interest to scholars, students and the general reader alike.

Soul-Searching
Author: Luke Jeffrey Janssen
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532679831
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
There are well over one hundred different views of the nature of human existence; though the Bible may rule out many of these, there still remains a large number that are all compatible with Scripture. The Bible never explicitly defines the nature of the soul or spirit, which is actually quite puzzling or even ironic, given that one major aim of Scripture is spiritual development and ultimate questions about the soul. In fact, Judeo-Christian thinking on those questions has been evolving over the course of four thousand years. This book documents that evolution as a man named Abram left Babylon four thousand years ago, journeying through the lands and the philosophies of civilizations preceding him by many more thousands of years, while he and his descendants (both physical and spiritual) unpacked their understanding of our inner being--the human soul--and the afterlife. That journey is followed to the present day, and examines how a critically thinking Christian can embrace a theology of the human soul that is fully compatible with modern scientific findings, including explanations for consciousness, mind, and soul.

The Two-Soul'd Animal
Author: James Jaehoon Lee
Publisher: Northwestern University Press
ISBN: 0810139286
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The Two-Soul’d Animal illuminates an early modern debate that recognized the troubling extent to which Christian thought had defined the human in terms of two incompatible models of soul. As the sixteenth century progressed, Christian and humanist thinkers began to realize that these two souls fundamentally contradicted each other. On the one hand, Christian theology had a great debt to Aristotle’s tripartite model of the soul based on three organic faculties: intellection, sensation, and nutrition. On the other, the Christian soul was defined by its immortal, immaterial, and transcendental substance. The sixteenth-century acknowledgement of the two souls provoked a great deal of anxiety, leading Christian thinkers to ask: How can we, as God’s perfect design, have two redundant and yet contradictory souls? And how could the core of the religious subject possibly be defined by a psychological paradox? As a result, the “soul” was an intrinsically unstable term being renegotiated in Renaissance culture. The English writers studied in The Two-Soul’d Animal place two prevailing interpretations of the soul’s faculties—one rhetorical on the plane of aesthetics, the other theological on the plane of ethics—into contact as a way to construct a new mode of Christian agency.
