Divinations
Author: Daniel M. Bell
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 149829538X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 211
Book Description
As modernity gives way to postmodernity, we are witnessing the emergence of a post-political age. Concepts and realities that anchored modern politics—like nation-states, community, freedom, and law—find themselves under duress from a pluriform terror. Simultaneously, we are witnessing a turn to religion by continental philosophers who seek resources for re-visioning a politics of resistance to this terror. This work engages postmodern philosophers such as Agamben, Badiou, Derrida, Deleuze, Hardt, Negri, and Zizek, seeking to divine both the promise and peril of this pagan plundering of Christianity on the way to articulating a Christian theopolitical vision that holds out the hope of resisting the terror that looms over us.

The Memory of the Temple and the Making of the Rabbis
Author: Naftali S. Cohn
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0812207467
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
When the rabbis composed the Mishnah in the late second or early third century C.E., the Jerusalem Temple had been destroyed for more then a century. Why, then, do the Temple and its ritual feature so prominently in the Mishnah? Against the view that the rabbis were reacting directly to the destruction and asserting that nothing had changed, Naftali S. Cohn argues that the memory of the Temple served a political function for the rabbis in their own time. They described the Temple and its ritual in a unique way that helped to establish their authority within the context of Roman dominance. At the time the Mishnah was created, the rabbis were not the only ones talking extensively about the Temple: other Judaeans (including followers of Jesus), Christians, and even Roman emperors produced texts and other cultural artifacts centered on the Jerusalem Temple. Looking back at the procedures of Temple ritual, the rabbis created in the Mishnah a past and a Temple in their own image, which lent legitimacy to their claim to be the only authentic purveyors of Jewish tradition and the traditional Jewish way of life. Seizing on the Temple, they sought to establish and consolidate their own position of importance within the complex social and religious landscape of Jewish society in Roman Palestine.

Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
The Wild Hunt Divinations: A Grimoire is a stunning second collection from National Poetry Series winner, Trevor Ketner. Comprised of 154 sonnets, each anagrammed line-by-line from Shakespeare's sonnets, the book refracts these lines through the thematic lens of transness, queer desire, kink, and British paganism. The sonnets come together to form a grimoire that casts a trancelike and intense spell on the reader. Centered on love and desire in the English canon, this collection speaks to the ever-emerging and beautiful manifestations of queer love and desire. Relentless, excessive, wild, and tender, The Wild Hunt Divinations: A Grimoire sets itself to chanting from beginning to end. When forty winters shall beseige thy brow, gowns web (herb hysteria)—let's thin flowery then—gaudy bicep—insistent herd—leaf dyed to holy doorway—hunt syrups—doze—given that i swallow debt, let me whorl—feed lard / ale / ill breath—they get eye winks—husband, of thudhurt, eyeray, saltwar—sheets yell, tan—nude hyphen—i knot woe; sinewy, it sees fingernails (limp waters, a hand sea), leather sets, meshes—hewed out virus—debauchery: try a mop or a match—i hot—i lucid—i wonderflush—stiffens: exoskeleton / cum—cuddly human mass—la, sings a boyish brute in his coven—cut—yep, hood him—we want a wren duet / to be shelter, a trans thud, sob, melt—oh, welt / honeyed wife.

Encyclopedia Of Occult Scienses Vol. V Secondary Divinations
Author: Poinsot, Maffeo
Publisher: Aegitas
ISBN: 1772464562
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 53
Book Description
It follows from this phenomenon (tested hundreds of times) that every thing may carry around it an invisibly written history. The same thing applies to the human being. Every one of us carries around him a radiance invisible to the human eye, but perceptible to the trained mind. Inscribed in this radiance in the shape of pictures are the most important results of our thoughts and our actions. In accordance with Tradition this radiance is termed the aura, and there is an aura for every principle. Thus there will be an aura of the physical body, of very small extent, an aura of the astral body, an aura of the mind. It is this last which was recognised by religious tradition surrounding the heads of saints and divinities with halos. It is thanks to this radiance of the three principles of the human being that we can explain many seemingly strange phenomena, such as sudden sympathies or antipathies, intuitions, and so-called unconscious previsions, etc.
