The Other Journal is a space for Christian interdisciplinary theological refection that tackles the cultural crises of our time with verve and peculiar slant, advancing a progressive, provocative, and charitable response in sync with the peacefully contrarian Christ. In this issue, we consider the theme of authority from the vantage point of pews and hospital rooms, of jail cells, low-lit dining rooms, and ancient coin collections. We learn to hear the cries of those who have suffered abuse from the powerful, to resist with the Apostle Paul, and to consent to grace from the source of love beyond all earthly powers. Our authority issue features prose by Andrew DeCort, Lyle Enright, Steven Felix-Jager, Richard C. Goode, Elizabeth Jarrett Andrew, Vincent Lloyd, Mary McCampbell, Mary Lane Potter, Gavin Richardson, Hilary Jerome Scarsella, Rebecca Shirley, Heidi Turner, and Brandon Wrencher poetry by Jill Bergkamp, Susan Carlson, Barbara Crooker, and Katie Manning an exhibition by Douglas Coupland, mixed media by Sedrick Huckaby, and multimedia by Brent Everett Dickinson and an interview with Devin Singh by Zachary Thomas Settle.

pTo our modern ears the word creature has wild, musky, even monstrous, connotations. And yet the terms creaturely and love, taken together, have traditionally been associated with theological debates around the enigmatic affection between God and His key creation, Man. In iCreaturely Lovei, Dominic Pettman explores the ways in which desire makes us both more, and less, human. ppIn an eminently approachable work of wide cultural reach and meticulous scholarship, Pettman undertakes an unprecedented examination of how animals shape the understanding and expression of love between people. Focusing on key figures in modern philosophy, art, and literature Nietzsche, Salome, Rilke, Balthus, Musil, Proust, premodern texts and fairy tales Fourier, Fournival, Ovid, and contemporary films and online phenomena Wendy and Lucy, Her, memes, Pettman demonstrates that from pet names to spirit animals, and allegories to analogies, animals have constantly appeared in our writings and thoughts about passionate desire.ppBy following certain charismatic animals during their passage through the love letters of philosophers, the romances of novelists, the conceits of fables, the epiphanies of poets, the paradoxes of contemporary films, and the digital menageries of the Internet, i Creaturely Love iultimately argues that in our utilization of the animal in our amorous expression, we are acknowledging that what we adore in our beloveds is not only their humanity, but their creatureliness.p

This book is a collection of absorbing and thought-provoking questionnaires and quizzes with related activities for students of English at upper-intermediate and more advanced levels. Questions requiring a personal response from the reader can serve as an enjoyable and provocative starting-point for fluency practice in the language classroom. The book is designed for use in the classroom, but much of the material can be used by students working alone. Those sections best suited to the individual reader are indicated by a special symbol in the text. At the end of the book both teachers and students will find guidelines on how to work through the units. A chart is also included to show how the activities can link up with main course work.

Though he died at the age of thirty-four, the Muscogee Creek poet, journalist, and humorist Alexander Posey 1873-1908 was one of the most prolific and influential American Indian writers of his time. This volume of nine stories, five orations, and nine works of oral tradition is the first to collect these entertaining and important works of Muscogee literature. Many of Posey's stories reflect trickster themes his orations demonstrate both his rhetorical prowess and his political stance as a Progressive Muscogee and his works of oral tradition reveal his deep cultural roots. Most of these pieces, which first appeared between 1892 and 1907 in Indian Territory newspapers and magazines, have since become rarities, many of the original pieces surviving only as single clippings in a few archives. While Muscogee oral tradition greatly influenced Posey's prose, his work was also infused with the Euro-American influences that formed much of his literary education. As this collection demonstrates, Posey used his knowledge of Euro-American literature and history to help write works that championed his own people at a time of profound oppression at the hands of the United States government. Posey's vivid literary style merges rich regional humor with Muscogee oral tradition in a way that makes him a unique figure in American Indian literature and politics. iChinnubbie and the Owli brings these works of great literary, cultural, and historical value to a new generation of readers.

pThis book demonstrates that the common belief that humanity is naturally disposed to religion did not disappear with the emergence of the Enlightenment. Going beyond a narrow focus on John Locke's empiricism, this vivid analysis reconstructs the vociferous, multivocal debate over the natural origins of religious belief in England and Scotland between ic. i1650 and ic. i1750. It enriches our understanding through examining hundreds of discussions of the relationship between human nature and religion, from a variety of genres and contexts. It shows that belief in religious innatism was a ubiquitous and enduring claim about human nature across the continuum of Christian thought in early modern Britain, and one deployed for a variety of reasons. While the doctrine of innate religious ideas did fall out of use, the belief that human nature was framed for religion continued in new forms into the eighteenth century.pbr

A thorough understanding of the houses is essential for psychological analysis of the horoscope because the houses establish the actual framework of individual personality and relationship to the environment.

pThe goal of emHow to Make Mapsem is to equip readers with the foundational knowledge of concepts they need to conceive, design, and produce maps in a legible, clear, and coherent manner, drawing from both classical and modern theory in cartography.p pThis book is appropriate for graduate and undergraduate students who are beginning a course of study in geospatial sciences or who wish to begin producing their own maps. While the book assumes no ema prioriem knowledge or experience with geospatial software, it may also serve GIS analysts and technicians who wish to explore the principles of cartographic design.p pThe first part of the book explores the key decisions behind every map, with the aim of providing the reader with a solid foundation in fundamental cartography concepts. Chapters 1 through 3 review foundational mapping concepts and some of the decisions that are a part of every map. This is followed by a discussion of the guiding principles of cartographic design in Chapter 4--how to start thinking about putting a map together in an effective and legible form. Chapter 5 covers map projections, the process of converting the curved earth's surface into a flat representation appropriate for mapping. Chapters 6 and 7 discuss the use of text and color, respectively. Chapter 8 reviews trends in modern cartography to summarize some of the ways the discipline is changing due to new forms of cartographic media that include 3D representations, animated cartography, and mobile cartography. Chapter 9 provides a literature review of the scholarship in cartography. The final component of the book shifts to applied, technical concepts important to cartographic production, covering data quality concepts and the acquisition of geospatial data sources Chapter 10, and an overview of software applications particularly relevant to modern cartography production GIS and graphics software Chapter 11. Chapter 12 concludes the book with examples of real-wor

David Livingstone was a doctor from Scotland, trained at the University of Glasgow and sent to South Africa by the London Missionary Society. He attended to both the spiritual and physical needs of people as he met them, but he also aimed to help people by being more strategic - trying to end slavery and promote trade. These quests caused him to be the first European to cross the African Continent. It should be noted that Livingstone's words are of his time and would be seen as racist by today's standards. He uses the terms and the science that were available to him, which were flawed, but is fascinated by the people that he meets and approaches them as fellow human beings. He writes with delicious humor and captivates the reader. This is book that both fascinates and enthrals.

pNothing confuses Christian ethics quite like the Old Testament. Some faithful readers struggle through its pages and conclude that they must obey its moral laws but may disregard its ceremonial and civil laws. Others abandon its teaching altogether in favor of a strictly New Testament ethic. Neither option, argues Chris Wright, gives the Old Testament its due. In this innovative approach to Old Testament ethics--fully revised, updated and expanded since its first appearance in 1983 as emLiving as the People of Godem emAn Eye for an Eyeem in North America and including material from emWalking in the Ways of the Lordem--Wright examines a theological, social and economic framework for Old Testament ethics. Then he explores a variety of themes in relation to contemporary issues economics, the land and the poor politics and a world of nations law and justice society and culture and the way of the individual. This fresh, illuminating study provides a clear basis for a biblical ethic that is faithful to the God of both Testaments.p

With this book, it is hoped to raise awareness of Kurdish poetry and its diverse voices within world literary circles. This work will encourage Kurdish speakers to develop confidence engaging in translation practices and perhaps even to consider becoming professional literary translators. It can reproduce the situation of language domination and create a hierarchy between actors involved in the process in blurring the roles, it often minimises, and even erases, the contribution of the native speaker. The widespread emphasis on fluency and readability that haunts literary translations knocks the confidence of the native Kurdish speaker. Therefore, the version they produce might be considered too 'literal' and would need to be polished and embellished by English native speakers andor poets who are often credited as the translators. In this volume, editors have been mindful of these issues when presenting the roles of translators, co-translators when all parties have access to both source and target languages, and translation editor with whom translators have had in-depth discussions on the best way of rendering the poems. Conscious of the various forms and practices of invisibilisation of the Kurdish language through time, it was important to give space to the original languages in this volume, hence the choice of a bilingual publication. While this work is the first step, it is hoped that it will inspire critical discussions, engagement, and maybe new forms and practices of translation for Kurdish literature.

pOperations of XXX Corps between the Rivers Maas and Rhine in February 1945. XXX Corps was heavily involved in the fighting that preceded the Rhine crossings it was responsible for the successful, if difficult, advance through the Reichswald Forest.ppComplete with reprints of all original maps and diagrams, this Directing Staff edition is especially concerned with the part played by 15th Scottish Division in these operations.ppA reprint of the Directing Staff edition of the British Army of the Rhine Battlefield Tour for Operation Veritable. The book contains all of the Student edition plus the important extra pages of personal accounts of actions for study. Those of you who know the series will also know how rare Directing Staff originals are. ppXXX Corps was heavily involved in the fighting that preceded the Rhine crossings. Under the command of the 1st Canadian Army, and with additional divisions, it was responsible for the successful, if difficult, advance through the Reichswald Forest that was the first phase of Operation Veritable in February 1945. The subsequent phases were redesignated as Operation Blockbuster. ppVeritable was a northern pincer movement and started with XXX Corps advancing through the Reichswald. The Allied advance proceeded more slowly than expected and at greater cost. This delayed the US offensive Operation Grenade, the southern pincer, and at the same time allowed German forces under local German commander, Alfred Schlemm, to be concentrated against the Commonwealth advance.ppAssessments by the German High Command were that an Allied advance through the Reichswald would be too difficult and the expected assault would be by the British Second Army from the Venlo area reserves were therefore placed there to respond to this. Alfred Schlemm, the local German commander, strongly disagreed, believing, correctly, that the Reichswald was the more likely route. He acted against the assessments of his superiors and t

The relationship between Gustav Mahler's career as conductor and his symphonic writing has remained largely unexplored territory with respect to his provocative re-invention of the Austro-German symphony at the turn of the twentieth century. This study offers a new account of these works by allowing Mahler's decisive contribution to the genre to emerge in light of his sustained engagement with the musical, theatrical, and aesthetic traditions of the Austrian fin de si cle. Appealing to ideas of landscape, mobility, and theatricality, Thomas Peattie elaborates a richly interdisciplinary framework that draws attention to the composer's unique symphonic idiom in terms of its radical attitude toward the presentation and ordering of musical events. The identification of a fundamental tension between the music's episodic nature and its often-noted narrative impulse in turn suggests a highly original symphonic dramaturgy, one that is ultimately characterized by an abstract theatricality.

Drawing on historical, literary and cultural studies perspectives, this book examines the phenomenon of the Returned Yank in the cultural imagination, taking as its point of departure the most exhaustively discussed Returned Yank narrative, The Quiet Man dir. John Ford, 1952. Often dismissed as a figure that embodies the sentimentality and nostalgia of Irish America writ large, this study argues that the Returned Yank's role in the Irish cultural imagination is much more varied and complex than this simplistic construction allows. Throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first, she has been widely discussed in broadcast and print media, and depicted in plays, novels, short stories and films. The imagined figure of the Returned Yank has been the driving impetus behind some of Ireland's most well-known touristic endeavours and festivals. In the form of U.S. Presidential visits, she has repeatedly been the catalyst for questions surrounding Irish identity. Most significantly, she has been mobilised as an arbiter in one of the most important debates in post-Independence Ireland should Ireland remain a traditional society or should it seek to modernise Hisher repeated appearances in Irish literature and culture after 1952 - in remarkably heterogeneous, often very sophisticated ways - refute claims of the aesthetic caution of Irish writers, dramatists and filmmakers responding to the traditionmodernity debate.br

pLaylani and Lea were best friends. Laylani was the most laid-back friend of the two. She was attending school to earn a business degree so that she can open up her own boutique one day. Lea was the more outgoing one who was wild in the streets. She never cared what anyone had to say about her. Even though she had her own money, she would con anyone out of their pockets for their money. She was a hustler who didn't care as long as she got what she wanted. She was never looking for love, just scheming for money. Cash ruled everything around her that was her motto. Would she stoop so low as to con her best friend, Laylani Was being money-hungry going to catch up with her Was all the dirt that she has done to people going to come back and haunt her Because when it's all said and done, karma gets the last say so in the end.p

Having been classified by the Air Ministry as a 'Master Diversion' airfield, RAF Manston was for many years open twenty-four hours a day and available to both civil and military aircraft 365 days a year. It was also later equipped with the Pyrene foam system, which both civil and military aircraft could use when they had problems with their undercarriage there is no doubt that the foam carpet saved many lives. The most spectacular occasion that it was used was on 20 April 1967 when a British Eagle Britannia made a complete wheels-up landing. It is claimed that Manston was the only station to serve in every command of the RAF and until its closure in 1999 it probably dealt with more diverse types of aircraft than any other station. During its eighty-three years as a Royal Naval RAF airfield, it played host to the Sopwith Camel, Spitfire, Bf 109, He 111, B-29, B-47, Tu-104, F-84 and Concorde, plus many other types that are too numerous to mention.

Shelley and Vitality reassesses Percy Shelley's engagement with early nineteenth-century science and medicine, specifically his knowledge and use of theories on the nature of life presented in the debate between surgeons John Abernethy and William Lawrence. Sharon Ruston offers new biographical information to link Shelley to a medical circle and explores the ways in which Shelley exploits the language and ideas of vitality. Major canonical works are reconsidered to address Shelley's politicised understanding of contemporary scientific discourse.

The world needs real men, real bad. And there are all sorts of conflicting ideas and messages about what a real man is and is not. Is a real man one who hunts, loves sports, grills meat, fixes cars, and climbs mountains Sure, sometimes. But that's not really the point of being a man and it's not the purpose for which men were made. brbrInto our cultural confusion, Brant Hansen paints a refreshingly specific, compelling picture of what men are made to be Keepers of the Garden. Protectors and defenders. He calls for men of all interests and backgrounds including avid indoorsmen like himself to be ambitious about the right things and to see themselves as defenders of the vulnerable, with whatever resources they have.brbrUsing short chapters loaded with must-have wisdom and Brant's signature humor, iThe Men We Needi explains the essence of masculinity in a fresh, thoughtful, and entertaining way that will inspire any man who dares to read it.

Orange County lay within the Granville Proprietary. After John Earl Granville died, the land office closed in March 1763. Between 1763 and 1777 it was not possible to gain title to vacant land because there was no one to grant it. When the state opened its land office in 1777, entry takers were selected in the various counties persons who swore allegiance to the State were then entitled to land at 50 shillings per 100 acres, The entry taker recorded the amount of land, the nearest watercourses, natural boundaries, and adjoining property owners if in three months no one made a claim for the land, the claimant took a copy of the entry and warrant to the surveyor who then laid off and surveyed the tract., providing two copies of the plat.

It is the purpose of these essays to commemorate the one hundredth birthday of the philosopher Max Scheler. On this centennial occasion it may be appropriate to recall the first two major works of the philosopher's life. Scheler is known mostly as the author of a monumental work on ethics, entitled Der Formalismus in der Ethik und die materiale Wertethik Formalism in Ethics and Non-Formal Ethics of Values, which is the only existing foundation of ethics written by a European philosopher in this century. Although its two parts were published separately 19131916 because of circumstances during World War I, all manuscripts had been finished by Scheler prior to the outbreak of the war. His ethics has been translated into various languages, including a recent translation in English. In the same year 1913 Scheler also published another major work which dealt with the phenomenology of sympathetic feelings, and which is translated into English under the title of the enlarged second and following editions The Nature of Sympathy.

Once we come to salvation in Jesus Christ, the next step is to grow in our walks with God. Ulimately, God's goal for us is to be conformed to the image of His Son Romans 829.

In this book, author and pastor Ryan Habbena unpacks the vast significance of this command. Drawing upon the rich heritage of teaching that has gone before us, yet ultimately focusing on the Scripture's sure guidance, Habbena teaches both what this command means and how we are called to walk God's chosen way for sanctification and spiritual growth. Beneficial for both new and seasoned believers, The Pilgrim's Path is a handbook of discipleship, offering clear instruction on how we are called to walk by the Spirit and thereby be conformed to the glorious image of the King.

In the decades following World War II, municipal leaders and ordinary citizens embraced San Francisco's identity as the Gateway to the Pacific, using it to reimagine and rebuild the city. The city became a cosmopolitan center on account of its newfound celebration of its Japanese and other Asian American residents, its economy linked with Asia, and its favorable location for transpacific partnerships. The most conspicuous testament to San Francisco's postwar transpacific connections is the Japanese Cultural and Trade Center in the city's redeveloped Japanese-American enclave. p Focusing on the development of the Center, Meredith Oda shows how this multilayered story was embedded within a larger story of the changing institutions and ideas that were shaping the city. During these formative decades, Oda argues, San Francisco's relations with and ideas about Japan were being forged within the intimate, local sites of civic and community life. This shift took many forms, including changes in city leadership, new municipal institutions, and especially transformations in the built environment. Newly friendly relations between Japan and the United States also meant that Japanese Americans found fresh, if highly constrained, job and community prospects just as the city's African Americans struggled against rising barriers. San Francisco's story is an inherently local one, but it also a broader story of a city collectively, if not cooperatively, reimagining its place in a global economy. br

Based on extensive archival and secondary research he undertakes the first sustained attempt to arrive at global estimates of the human and economic cost of the wars. The many actors in the drama are appraised with subtlety.

The Allied landings at Dieppe in German-occupied France in August 1942 are one the most famous amphibious operations of the Second World War and many books have been written about them, mostly from the Allied point of view. The German side of the story has been neglected, and that is why Graham Thomas's fresh account is so valuable. He reconstructs the immediate response of the Germans to the landings, gives a graphic detailed description of their actions throughout, and looks at the tactical and strategic lessons they drew from them.brbrEach phase and aspect of the action is depicted using a broad range of sources including official reports, correspondence and recollections - the preliminary British commando attacks on the gun batteries, the landings themselves, the German defenses and preparations, and their counter-attacks, and the associated naval and air campaigns.brbrThe result is a finely balanced and incisive reassessment of this remarkable operation. It also offers the reader an engrossing account of one of the most dramatic episodes in the war in Western Europe.

Why are young people dropping out of religious institutions Can anything be done to reverse the trend In iGot Religion, i Naomi Schaefer Riley examines the reasons for the defection, why we should care, and how some communities are successfully addressing the problem. p The traditional markers of growing up are getting married and becoming financially independent. But young adults are delaying these milestones, sometimes for a full decade longer than their parents and grandparents. This new phase of emerging adulthood is diminishing the involvement of young people in religious institutions, sapping the strength and vitality of faith communities, and creating a more barren religious landscape for the young adults who do eventually decide to return to it. Yet, clearly there are some churches, synagogues, and mosques that are making strides in bringing young people back to religion. piGot Religioni offers in-depth, on-the-ground reporting about the most successful of these institutions and shows how many of the structural solutions for one religious group can be adapted to work for another. p The faith communities young people attach themselves to are not necessarily the biggest or the most flashy. They are not the wealthiest or the ones employing the latest technology. Rather, they are the ones that create stability for young people, that give them real responsibility in a community and that help them form the habits of believers that will last a lifetime.

Covid-19 has given renewed, urgent attention to the pandemic as a devastating, recurrent global phenomenon. Today the term is freely and widely used-but in reality, it has a long and contested history, centred on South Asia. pPandemic India is an innovative enquiry into the emergence of the idea and changing meaning of pandemics, exploring the pivotal role played by-or assigned to-India over the past 200 years. Using the perspectives of the social historian and the historian of medicine, and a wide range of sources, it explains how and why past pandemics were so closely identified with South Asia the factors behind outbreaks' exceptional destructiveness in India responses from society and the state, both during and since the colonial era and how such collective catastrophes have changed lives and been remembered. Giving a 'long history' to India's current pandemic, the book offers comparisons with earlier epidemics of cholera, plague and influenza. pDavid Arnold assesses the distinctive characteristics and legacies of each episode, tracking the evolution of public health strategies and containment measures. This is a historian's reflection on time as seen through the pandemic prism, and on the ways the past is used--or misused--to serve the present.br
