Wild
Author: Solveig Bøe
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350099430
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
In this interdisciplinary work, philosophers from different specialisms connect with the notion of the wild today and interrogate how it is mediated through the culture of the Anthropocene. They make use of empirical material like specific artworks, films and other cultural works related to the term 'wild' to consider the aesthetic experience of nature, focusing on the untamed, the boundless, the unwieldy, or the unpredictable; in other words, aspects of nature that are mediated by culture. This book maps out the wide range of ways in which we experience the wildness of nature aesthetically, relating both to immediate experience as well as to experience mediated through cultural expression. A variety of subjects are relevant in this context, including aesthetics, art history, theology, human geography, film studies, and architecture. A theme that is pursued throughout the book is the wild in connection with ecology and its experience of nature as both a constructive and destructive force.

Rise and Fall of the Nine O'Clock Service
Author: Roland Howard
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 0264674197
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
The Nine O'Clock Service and its 'rave priest' Chris Brain hit the headlines amid allegations of widespread sexual abuse, stories of wild techno-rave services and rumours of a cult at the heart of the Anglican Church. In this book, based on extensive personal interviews with people involved in the Service and research over a period of several months, Roland Howard has covered both sides of the many allegations and heard the Church's official point of view. His investigations have uncovered a leader who lived in luxury and travelled the world while his congregation pledged themselves to a simple lifestyle; a leader who abused his position and manipulated dozens of women followers; a committed and creative congregation who stood in awe of their leader, believing him to be a prophet sent from God to renew the Church; unwitting support and endorsement by senior theologians, professors and industrialists, for a group which became increasingly 'cult-like' in its systems of manipulation and mind control; and a group with a vision that nevertheless has integrity and relevance for the Church as it enters the twenty-first century. This is the story behind the headlines - the story of congregation's move from charismatic Christianity to what many see as a Christianised form of neo-paganism; the story of the world's first 'post-modern church' and of a cult within the Church of England.

The People's Wars
Author: Mark Hewitson
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191056057
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 586
Book Description
How did ministers, journalists, academics, artists, and subjects in the German lands imagine war during the nineteenth century? The Napoleonic Wars had been the bloodiest in Europe's history, directly affecting millions of Germans, yet their long-term consequences on individuals and on 'politics' are still poorly understood. This study makes sense of contemporaries' memories and histories of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic campaigns within a much wider context of press reportage of wars elsewhere in Europe and overseas, debates about military service and the reform of Germany's armies, revolution and counter-revolution, and individuals' experiences of violence and death in their everyday lives. For the majority of the populations of the German states, wars during an era of conscription were not merely a matter of history and memory; rather, they concerned subjects' hopes, fears, and expectations of the future. This is the second volume of Mark Hewitson's study of the violence of war in the German lands during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It investigates the complex relationship between military conflicts and the violent acts of individual soldiers. In particular, it considers the contradictory impact of 'pacification' in civilian life and exposure to increasingly destructive technologies of killing during war-time. This contradiction reached its nineteenth-century apogee during the 'wars of unification', leaving an ambiguous imprint on post-war discussions of military conflict.
