Luzbetak is a comprehensive guide for religious workers who want to understand and engage with different cultures. The book provides a detailed overview of the field of anthropology and its relevance to the work of the church. It explores the ways in which culture shapes religious practices and beliefs, and how religious workers can adapt their approach to better serve diverse communities.The book is divided into four parts, each focusing on a different aspect of the relationship between the church and culture. Part one provides an introduction to anthropology and its relevance to religious work. Part two explores the role of culture in shaping religious practices, beliefs, and values. Part three examines the challenges of cross-cultural communication and the importance of cultural sensitivity in religious work. Finally, part four provides practical strategies for engaging with diverse communities and adapting religious practices to different cultural contexts.Throughout the book, Luzbetak draws on his extensive experience as a missionary and anthropologist to provide real-world examples and practical advice. He emphasizes the importance of building relationships with people from different cultures, listening to their perspectives, and adapting religious practices to meet their needs. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an excellent resource for anyone involved in religious work or interested in the intersection of religion and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Yvain
Author: Chretien de Troyes
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300187580
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.

Presidential Spending Power
Author: Louis Fisher
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400868343
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
Each year billions of dollars are diverted by the President and his assistants from the purposes for which Congress intended them. Billions more are used in confidential and covert ways, without the knowledge of Congress and the public. Here is the first account of how this money is actually spent. Louis Fisher writes: "When it comes to the administration of the budget, we find nothing that is obvious, very little that is visible. Our priorities here are peculiar. We fix upon the appropriations process, watching with great fascination as Congress goes about its business of making funds available to agencies. What happens after that point —the actual spending of money—rarely commands our attention." To unravel the mystery, Louis Fisher has investigated different forms of discretionary action: the transfer of funds that initially financed the Cambodian incursion; impoundment during the Nixon administration; covert financing; the reprogramming of funds; and unauthorized commitments. He describes each of these devices in operation and provides the historical background of Presidential spending power. In conclusion Louis Fisher presents a cogent and timely analysis of what can be done to improve Congressional control. Sufficient control, he maintains, cannot be achieved merely through the appropriations process, and he makes important recommendations designed to preserve discretionary authority while improving Congressional supervision. Originally published in 1975. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
