The Autobiography Of Judas Iscariot
Author: Hugh Vickery
Publisher: Veritas Resurgence
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
What motivates a man to betray a friend? And not just a friend but the Son of God? The Bible doesn't answer this question. In fact, it says very little about Judas Isacariot, leaving who he was and what motivated him to our own interpretation. "The Autobiography of Judas Iscariot" imagines how Judas himself would have told his story from his childhood under Roman occupation to his suicide on a tree outside Jerusalem as Jesus, the one he betrayed, died on another tree for the sins of all mankind. As a novel, the "autobiography" is fictional. However, it faithfully follows the Biblical narrative. In the end, Judas reveals not only his own heart but also the heart of the One he rejected, Jesus. If we are to be honest, his ambitions and justifications also reveal our own hearts. We find we often have some Judas in ourselves.

Speculative Biography
Author: Donna Lee Brien
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000454738
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
While speculation has always been crucial to biography, it has often been neglected, denied or misunderstood. This edited collection brings together a group of international biographers to discuss how, and why, each uses speculation in their work; whether this is to conceptualise a project in its early stages, work with scanty or deliberately deceptive sources, or address issues associated with shy or stubborn subjects. After defining the role of speculation in biography, the volume offers a series of work-in-progress case studies that discuss the challenges biographers encounter and address in their work. In addition to defining the ‘speculative spectrum’ within the biographical endeavour, the collection offers a lexicon of new terms to describe different types of biographical speculation, and more deeply engage with the dynamic interplay between research, subjectivity and that which Natalie Zemon Davis dubbed ‘informed imagination’. By mapping the field of speculative biography, the collection demonstrates that speculation is not only innate to biographical practice but also key to rendering the complex mystery of biographical subjects, be they human, animal or even metaphysical.

The Autobiography of Francis Place
Author: Francis Place
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521083997
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
Francis Place's autobiography presents a vivid and readable account of the early life of one of the best-known radical reformers of the early 19th century. The publication of Place's manuscript for the first time in book form is a landmark in the expanding field of studies in artisan self-consciousness of the pre-Victorian era. The book will be of obvious value to those interested in the origins of the Reform Movement and especially of the controversial reform group, the London Corresponding society. In his description of the rise and fall of the LCS and of the men who composed it and other reform groups. Place brings to life the human feelings and failings of the working-class democratic movement, and his own lifelong attempts to 'promote the welfare of the working class'.
