The Sublime
Author: Andrew Ashfield
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521395823
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
This collection of texts on the Sublime provides the historical context for the foundation and discussion of one of the most important aesthetic debates of the Enlightenment. The significance of the Sublime in the eighteenth century ranged across a number of fields - literary criticism, empirical psychology, political economy, connoisseurship, landscape design and aesthetics, painting and the fine arts, and moral philosophy - and has continued to animate aesthetic and theoretical debates to this day. However, the unavailability of many of the crucial texts of the founding tradition has resulted in a conception of the Sublime often limited to the definitions of its most famous theorist Edmund Burke. Andrew Ashfield and Peter de Bolla's anthology, which includes an introduction and notes to each entry, offers students and scholars ready access to a much deeper and more complex tradition of writings on the Sublime, many of them never before printed in modern editions.

And it shows you a way for daily encounters, visitations, and the supernatural. * Finally, it helps you to construct your call and leads you to accomplish your call with confidence. If you are the one seeking the deeper truths of the Bible and higher levels of glory, you should know that God's eyes are searching for you, and this book is certainly going to position you to fall under God's sight. Get ready to start a new beginning in your life by understanding your call. Get ready to start a new beginning in the kingdom of God by carrying the call. Finally, get ready for your destiny on this earth and eternity by accomplishing your call. The kingdom is longing for a new beginning. A beginning always begins with the single humble person; then why can't it begin with you? Amen!

Nature's Web
Author: Peter Marshall
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317463978
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
This powerful book provides the first comprehensive overview of the intellectual roots of the worldwide environmental movement - from ancient religions and philosophies to modern science and ethics - and synthesizes them into a new philosophy of nature in which to ground our moral values and social action. It traces the origins and evolution of the dominant worldview that has built our industrial, technocratic, man-centered civilization, and brought us to the current ecological crisis. At the same time, it uncovers an alternative cultural tradition in the world's different religions and philosophies and describes how these ideas are now surfacing and coalescing to form an ecological sensibility and a new vision of nature which recognizes the inter-relatedness of all living things. Finally, this book integrates these varied traditions with modern physics and the science of ecology into a larger philosophical whole that provides the environmental movement with a comprehensive vision of an organic and sustainable society in harmony with nature. As ecological disasters continue to threaten our planet, becoming worse with every passing moment of indifference, it has become clear that we must take action. We must change our relationship with nature, and return to the days when our lives were intimately connected to and dependent upon the natural world. Nature's Web lays the foundations for that change by explaining where our complex ideas about nature come from, why they are wrong, and what we can do to change them.

Covenant Theology
Author: Phillip D. R. Griffiths
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1498234836
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 219
Book Description
God has always dealt with his people through the covenant, yet covenant theology from a Baptist perspective is a teaching that is all too often neglected. Many Baptists don't know why they are Baptist. If questioned they are most likely to respond by alluding to the mode of baptism rather than its underlying theology. This book is easily accessible, providing the reader with a clear understanding of the historical Baptist position. The work points out the errors inherent in the Reformed paedobaptist paradigm, and seeks to show that the only covenant of grace is the new covenant in Christ.
