The Greatest Mirror
Author: Andrei A. Orlov
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438466927
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
The idea of a heavenly double—an angelic twin of an earthbound human—can be found in Christian, Manichaean, Islamic, and Kabbalistic traditions. Scholars have long traced the lineage of these ideas to Greco-Roman and Iranian sources. In The Greatest Mirror, Andrei A. Orlov shows that heavenly twin imagery drew in large part from early Jewish writings. The Jewish pseudepigrapha—books from the Second Temple period that were attributed to biblical figures but excluded from the Hebrew Bible—contain accounts of heavenly twins in the form of spirits, images, faces, children, mirrors, and angels of the Presence. Orlov provides a comprehensive analysis of these traditions in their full historical and interpretive complexity. He focuses on heavenly alter egos of Enoch, Moses, Jacob, Joseph, and Aseneth in often neglected books, including Animal Apocalypse, Book of the Watchers, 2 Enoch, Ladder of Jacob, and Joseph and Aseneth, some of which are preserved solely in the Slavonic language.

Faith-Based Organizations in Development Discourses and Practice
Author: Jens Koehrsen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000734641
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Exploring faith-based organizations (FBOs) in current developmental discourses and practice, this book presents a selection of empirical in-depth case-studies of Christian FBOs and assesses the vital role credited to FBOs in current discourses on development. Examining the engagement of FBOs with contemporary politics of development, the contributions stress the agency of FBOs in diverse contexts of development policy, both local and global. It is emphasised that FBOs constitute boundary agents and developmental entrepreneurs: they move between different discursive fields such as national and international development discourses, theological discourses, and their specific religious constituencies. By combining influxes from these different contexts, FBOs generate unique perspectives on development: they express alternative views on development and stress particular approaches anchored in their theological social ethics. This book should be of interest to those researching FBOs and their interaction with international organizations, and to scholars working in the broader areas of religion and politics and politics and development.

Capitalist Nigger
Author: Chika Onyeani
Publisher: Jonathan Ball Publishers
ISBN: 1868425061
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Capitalist Nigger is an explosive and jarring indictment of the black race. The book asserts that the Negroid race, as naturally endowed as any other, is culpably a non-productive race, a consumer race that depends on other communities for its culture, its language, its feeding and its clothing. Despite enormous natural resources, blacks are economic slaves because they lack the 'devil-may-care' attitude and the 'killer instinct' of the Caucasian, as well as the spider web mentality of the Asian. A Capitalist Nigger must embody ruthlessness in pursuit of excellence in his drive towards achieving the goal of becoming an economic warrior. In putting forward the idea of the Capitalist Nigger, Chika Onyeani charts a road to success whereby black economic warriors employ the 'Spider Web Doctrine' – discipline, self-reliance, ruthlessness – to escape from their victim mentality. Born in Nigeria, Chika Onyeani is a journalist, editor and former diplomat.

Fine Boys
Author: Eghosa Imasuen
Publisher: Ohio University Press
ISBN: 0821447432
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
A coming-of-age tale told from the perspective of Nigeria’s Generation X, caught amid the throes of a nascent pro-democracy movement, demoralizing corruption, and campus violence. Ewaen is a Nigerian teenager, bored at home in Warri and eager to flee from his parents’ unhappy marriage and incessant quarreling. When Ewaen is admitted to the University of Benin, he makes new friends who, like him, are excited about their newfound independence. They hang out in parking lots, trading gibes in pidgin and English and discovering the pleasures that freedom affords them. But when university strikes begin and ruthlessly violent confraternities unleash mayhem on their campus, Ewaen and his new friends must learn to adapt—or risk becoming the confras' next unwilling recruits. In his trademark witty, colloquial style, critically acclaimed author Eghosa Imasuen presents everyday Nigerian life against the backdrop of the pro-democracy riots of the 1980s and 1990s, the lost hopes of June 12 (Nigeria’s Democracy Day), and the terror of the Abacha years. Fine Boys is a chronicle of time, not just in Nigeria, but also for its budding post-Biafran generation.

An Hour of Prayer
Author: Lennox Moses
Publisher: Archway Publishing
ISBN: 1665716428
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
What book do you need for life, and for what follows after? A bible, of course, you may say, but one cannot access anything worthwhile in the Bible without prayer. So regardless of the religion, the most common and important feature of any faith is prayer. Your prayer should follow the format outlined in so many parts of the Bible. An ideal prayer does not have to be long, but should be spoken, and at least contain confession, repentance, and should call on God by his proper name. This book of spoken prayer contains all of the known Names of God; it includes the Lord’s Prayer, prayer for family, for deliverance, and for healing. This edition concentrates on healing in an expanded Chapter 5. It contains the Word of YHVH on healing, the Word of our Lord for healing, and the Word his disciples used for healing; words for self-healing, and for healing other persons. This book of Prayer begins with and ends with praise. It is a book that we all need, and need to read aloud as often as possible.

African Art

Publisher:
ISBN: 9780306803734
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
In its painting and sculpture since 1920, African art has combined elements from traditional tribal and modern European art. This book traces this development. Concentrating on the period from 1920 to 1965, the author discusses specific style motifs, as well as ways of handling sculptural forms and surfaces, most of which are drawn from older art. He then shows how this substratum has been shaped by the techniques, media, styles and philosophy of the West. A new introduction by the author describes and assesses current trends in African art.
