Pages : 120
Book Description
About the Book A HEARTWARMING, FUNNY AND PATH-BREAKING STORY OF FRIENDSHIP THAT GOES BEYOND RELIGION God hadn’t done right by them. Noor had concentrated hard at Fakir Baba’s dargah, Bachchu had prayed desperately at the Ganesh temple. But God favoured the toppers. Again. Maybe He was drowning in prayers from too many kids. Noor and Bachchu come up with a brilliant plan—they would create a God who knows only them, and no other children, and so has no option but to grant their wishes. Thus, they create their own nameless God. And you know what? The plan works! The very next day, God performs his first miracle—a day off from school. Unaware that the Babri Masjid has been destroyed, sparking communal violence across the country, they go out to thank their God but get caught in the riots. Can the nameless God save them? In a world polarised along religious lines, The Nameless God offers a vision of another way of being. This powerful and moving story of friendship and understanding brings home the pointlessness of the invisible boundaries created by different faiths.

The Revivifying Word
Author: Clayton Koelb
Publisher: Camden House
ISBN: 9781571133885
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Reading as key to the mysterious relation between lifeless material bodies and living, animate beings in Romantic fiction and thought.What is not Life that really is? asked Coleridge, struggling, like many poets, philosophers, and scientists of Europe''s Romantic age, to formulate a theory of life that explained the mysterious relation between dead material bodies and living, animate beings. Romantic intellectuals found a key to this mystery surprisingly close at hand: the process by which dead matter could come to life must be something like the process of reading. The Revivifying Word examines the reanimating acts of reading that became a central focus of attention for Romantic writers. German theorists, building on the Apostle Paul''s assertion that the dead letter can be revivified by the livingspirit, proposed a permeable, legible boundary between the living and the dead. This inaugurated a revolution in European aesthetics, implanting the germ of an extraordinarily productive narrative idea that enriched Romantic literature for decades. Poets and novelists created a large cast of characters who crossed the boundary between death and life with the help of some form of reading: figures like Keats''s Glaucus, Kleist''s Elizabeth Kohlhaas, Shelley''sFrankenstein (and the monster he creates), Maturin''s Melmoth, Poe''s Madeline Usher, and Gautier''s Spirite. Clayton Koelb demonstrates that such fictions offer a nuanced consideration of the most urgent question facing any theoryof life: how do material bodies come to acquire, to lose, and then perhaps to regain the immaterial intellectual/spiritual quality that defines animate beings?
