Book Description
When life (in a global pandemic) imitates art . . . Van Gogh’s Starry Night made out of spaghetti? Cat with a Pearl Earring? Frida Kahlo self-portraits with pets and toilet paper? While the world reeled from the rapid spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), thousands of people around the globe, inspired by challenges from Getty and other museums, raided toy chests, repurposed pantry items, and enlisted family, roommates, and animals to re-create famous works of art at home. Astonishing in their creativity, wit, and ingenuity, these creations remind us of the power of art to unite us and bring joy during troubled times. Off the Walls: Inspired Re-Creations of Iconic Artworks celebrates these imaginative re-creations, bringing highlights from this challenge together in one whimsical, irresistible volume. Getty Publications will donate all profits from the sales of this book to a charity supporting art and artists.

Translation/re-Creation
Author: Duncan Poupard
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100048470X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
This book is a study of European-language translations of Naxi ritual manuscripts, the ritual literature of a small ethnic group living in southwest China’s Yunnan Province. The author discusses the translations into European languages (in English, French and German) from the late nineteenth century to the second half of the twentieth century, revealing a history of fragmentary yet interconnected translation efforts in the West. By exploring this network, he shows how translation can be understood as a metonymic “recreation” of textual worlds. As Naxi manuscripts are semi-oral texts representing an oral-formulaic tradition, their translation involves a metonymic relay of partial incorporations from manuscript/image to reading/spoken language. Therefore, the book engages in a series of textual excavations to uncover the previously occluded contemporaneous readings that would have led to the translations we can consult today, particularly in an attempt to understand how the Naxi literature came to be part of Ezra Pound’s Cantos. Scholars in the field of ethnic minority literature in China and translation studies will find this book beneficial, and it will make new contributions to comparative literature between the East and West.

Re-Creation
Author: Paul E. Truitt

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
Dr. Truitt tries to answer the following age-old questions from a philosophical, psychological, scientific and spiritual perspective: When a person dies, where does their spirit go? Are they born again? Does God want you putting words in his mouth? What makes living things intelligent and gives them life? Is a persons soul immortal? What happens to a persons soul after death? How can a soul be judged? What is the number one reason that a person should strive to make the world a better place for its future inhabitants? What is the ultimate truth, the ultimate reality? What is Dr. Truitts perception of reincarnation, being born again, and what he calls the re-creation or God and Mother Natures plan to perfect the souls of man and to turn the paradise that we call earth into the ultimate form of the good? Our purpose in life is to serve God and Mother Nature for the common good of all living things! Most religions are merely perceived by man to satisfy mankinds innate (God-given) need to know and understand. Gods instructions for living their lives are firmly ingrained in the souls of all his living creatures! To know and understand the truth is one of mankinds most essential innate or God-given needs. The ultimate truth, the ultimate reality, Gods laws, and the laws of nature are universal and never change; they never contradict each other.

Creation Regained
Author: Albert M. Wolters
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 9780802829696
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
with a Postcript coauthored by Michael W. Goheen In print for two decades and translated into eight languages, Albert Wolters's classic formulation of an integrated Christian worldview has been revised and expanded to reach new readers beyond the generation that has already benefited from this clear, concise proposal for transcending the false dichotomy between sacred and secular. Wolters begins by defining the nature and scope of a worldview, distinguishing it from philosophy and theology. He then outlines a Reformed analysis of the three basic categories in human history -- creation, fall, and redemption -- arguing that while the fall reaches into every corner of the world, Christians are called to participate in Christ's redemption of all creation. This Twentieth Anniversary edition features a new concluding chapter, coauthored with Michael Goheen, that helpfully places the discussion of worldview in a broader narrative and missional context. Praise for the first edition"This is the best statement I have come across of the 'reformational' Christian worldview. It is lucidly written, includes a lot of helpful analogies and illustrations, and is throughout generous in its spirit." -- Nicholas Wolterstorff, Yale University"Translates the central insights and categories of the neo-Calvinist tradition into fresh, nontechnical language and clarifies them with a generous sprinkling of apt illustrations and images. . . . Highly recommended to all those desiring a crisp introduction to a Christian worldview in general or the neo-Calvinist tradition in particular." -- "Christian Scholar's Review"Outstanding. . . . Deserves a wide readership not only in a specifically academiccontext among teachers, preachers, and students, but also among the larger group of believers who are concerned with issues involving Christian worldview, theology, and philosophy." -- "Calvin Theological Journal
