Book Description
Is life some chance occurrence on one large rock spinning around an insignificant sun on the edge of the universe? Or is there a larger picture to life, a greater unseen purpose? From cosmic evolution to human diversity, life is like a jigsaw of many pieces evolving to find their potential and place in the final picture. Richard Bryant-Jefferies takes you on a fascinating journey from cosmic creation through the threat of competitive separateness to human responsibility, identifying key qualities-pieces of the jigsaw of life-to be set in place in the world to enable the purpose of creation to be fulfilled and revealed. " through a series of gentle reflections from a wide variety of perspectives the reader is drawn to consider what it means to be a human being." -Steve Nation, from his Foreword " meaningful for practitioners in, or people committed to, the Person-Centered Approach and who are interested in a spiritual dimension important reading for those people who are searching for their own answers in trying to make sense of these type of questions and have no prior knowledge or interest in the Person-Centered Approach." -Irene Fairhurst, from her Foreword

Graceful Exits
Author: Debra Campbell
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253110718
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
The personal narratives of nine 20th-century Catholic female authors -- Monica Baldwin, Antonia White, Mary McCarthy, Mary Gordon, Mary Daly, Barbara Ferraro, Patricia Hussey, Karen Armstrong, and Patricia Hampl -- speak eloquently about the process of departure from the church and its institutions. This study explores each author's breaking of the taboo associated with women leaving their "proper place." It locates five themes at the heart of all of their narratives: reversal, boundary crossing, diaspora, renaming, and recycling. Debra Campbell grapples with the spirituality of departure depicted by all nine women, for whom the very process of leaving Catholic institutions is a Catholic enterprise. These narratives support the popular maxim that no one ever really leaves the church. In the final chapter, Campbell examines narratives of return, confirming the book's overarching theme that neither departure nor return is ever finished.

To See the Saw Movies
Author: James Aston
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786470895
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
The Saw films, often derided by critics as "torture porn" and an excuse to show blood and gore, are the highest-grossing horror series in cinema history. In view of their hold on audiences and their controversial content, they deserve study. This first collection of fresh essays by academic authors from Europe, America and Australia addresses the cultural, religious and philosophical facets of the films, investigating how the franchise reflects a post-9/11 shift in U.S. popular culture towards increasing pessimism and how it may be read as a metaphor for the "war on terror"; dissecting how the series explores such issues as freewill and determinism; assessing the films' representations of the body; and applying a Deleuzian perspective to the franchise.
