Book Description
How do we reconcile the death sentence - specifically, a sentence of death that was pronounced on the 8th of May in 1987 - with our marriage, and more importantly, with eternallife? In order to answer this question, we need not only to lookback, but especially, to look forward.Before we were joined in marriage, we were two peoplefrom two extremely divergent backgrounds. Frank, the only childborn to affluent parents, had a childhood of privilege; Rachel,the only daughter of a couple who later divorced, had a childhoodracked with difficulties. In spite of the difficulties, Rachelbecame "one of us" - a hard-working American with a kind andgentle heart and a rock-solid belief in God. Despite the privilegesand the affluence, Frank's "choices" - some that he made andsome that had been foisted upon him - led him down the darktrail that ended, eventually, on Death Row in an Arizona prison.The stories of our lives are the stories of the two very differentpeople, who, several years after the death sentence hadbeen pronounced, were married on December 17, 1991. They arethe stories of how Rachel become "one of us" and of how Frank's"choices" led him so far astray. They are the stories of how we met and married; but they go further, for they are the stories thatexplain how each of us discovered Orthodoxy and came to be Eastern Orthodox Christians, and especially, of how the trajectoryof our lives has so completely changed. Merely being OrthodoxChristians can never be enough; we have learned to leadlives of prayer, repentance, and most of all, hope. With our hopefirmly grounded in our risen Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, welook forward to life in Him, because only in Him are all thingspossible.We must emphasize that we did not "become one" uponour marriage, but years later. Through our individual life experiencesand through our shared experiences, we have learned, atlast, what is meant by "And The Two Shall Become One". At therequest of clergy near and dear to us, we offer these, first, ourindividual and then, our shared experiences to the scrutiny andprayers of all who read them. And we pray, always for the salvationof all.

Book Description
An excerpt from the beginning of PART I.Reader, mine, I am about to treat herein the grandest subject that ever engaged or challenged human thought. In doing so it is likely that I may repeat some things elsewhere, by myself or others, said before; but even if so, I have struck upon many things now given to the race for the first time.A vast amount of "physiological" chaff is current in the world, originating in the pulpy brains of certain people with "M.D" after their names; folks who eke out a good living by putting medicines, of which they know little, into bodies whereof they know less.A still larger amount of "chaff" labeled "philosophy" is afloat, generated for the most part in the angular heads of people, whom a chronic prostatitis or ovarian fever has so deranged that they really imagine themselves philosophers, - being only shams, - who propose to revolutionize the world, especially the domain of Marriage-land, by inculcating pudacious sophistries, better calculated to kill than to cure the victims, on either side. One thing is certain: Light is needed; and this work (originally intended to be called by a different title, but which intent was abandoned, owing to the vastly larger scope of the completed and rewritten volume) is meant to afford exactly what is required; andI. What a tremendous deal of suffering, horror, crime, wretchedness and despair there is in this beautiful, but badly misused world of ours! - most of which might be prevented in the first instance, or remedied in the second, were there less consummate and confounded ignorance afloat up and down the earth's strong tides of human life, with its strangely, wildly surging ebbs and flows, heats and snows, in reference to matters pertaining to, and concerning the, relations, wise and otherwise, subsisting between the separate genders of the human race; especially that portion of it located in the so-called "civilized" lands, and particularly in the cis-Atlantic portion of the Lord's exceedingly immoral vineyard.Now, whoever supposes that the ignorance alluded to is confined solely to the masses, -sometimes spellable as " them asses," according to Carlyle, - or that the sum total of non-knowledge must be looked for among the unread, unlettered and unwashed crowds that throng the great highways of the world, and whose struggles for life, and clamors for bread, occupy most of their time and attention, - will find him or herself most woefully mistaken; for a far less dense and conglobate ignorance upon matters of vital import to every human being exists among the people - the rude crowd who jostle each other everywhere, and which is the plastic material that the brainful few mould into voters, hero-worshippers, or send to fight their battles against each other, armed with ploughs or rifles, pitchforks or bayonets, cannons or spades - than is to be found in circles making very lofty pretensions, not only to knowledge, but to morality also, from its geologic base to its astronomic summit.

Stars in Their Courses
Author: Shelby Foote

Languages : en
Pages : 310
Book Description
A matchless account of the Battle of Gettysburg, drawn from Shelby Foote’s landmark history of the Civil War Shelby Foote’s monumental three-part chronicle, The Civil War: A Narrative, was hailed by Walker Percy as “an unparalleled achievement, an American Iliad, a unique work uniting the scholarship of the historian and the high readability of the first-class novelist.” Here is the central chapter of the central volume, and therefore the capstone of the arch, in a single volume. Complete with detailed maps, Stars in Their Courses brilliantly recreates the three-day conflict: It is a masterly treatment of a key great battle and the events that preceded it—not as legend has it but as it really was, before it became distorted by controversy and overblown by remembered glory.

The Power of Phenomenology
Author: Robert D. Stolorow
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429828136
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
The Power of Phenomenology took form when the two authors realized that a single theme has run through the course of their almost half-century-long collaboration like a red thread—namely, the power of phenomenological inquiry and understanding in a wide range of contexts. This book demonstrates how they have experienced the power of phenomenology in their therapeutic work with patients, especially those struggling with horrific trauma; in their encounters with psychological and philosophical theories; and in their efforts to comprehend destructive ideologies and the collective traumas that give rise to them. The Power of Phenomenology presents the trajectory of this work. Each chapter begins with a contribution written by one or both authors, extending the power of phenomenological inquiry to one or more of these diverse contexts. The contributions are followed, one or two at a time, by a dialogue between the authors, illustrating the dialectical process of their long collaboration. The unusual format seeks to bring the phenomenology of their collaborative efforts to life for the reader. The Power of Phenomenology will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists and scholars of philosophy.

The Abyss of Madness
Author: George E. Atwood
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136621261
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Despite the many ways in which the so-called psychoses can become manifest, they are ultimately human events arising out of human contexts. As such, they can be understood in an intersubjective manner, removing the stigmatizing boundary between madness and sanity. Utilizing the post-Cartesian psychoanalytic approach of phenomenological contextualism, as well as almost 50 years of clinical experience, George Atwood presents detailed case studies depicting individuals in crisis and the successes and failures that occurred in their treatment. Topics range from depression to schizophrenia, bipolar disorder to dreams, dissociative states to suicidality. Throughout is an emphasis on the underlying essence of humanity demonstrated in even the most extreme cases of psychological and emotional disturbance, and both the surprising highs and tragic lows of the search for the inner truth of a life – that of the analyst as well as the patient.
