The Ways of Evil Men
Author: Leighton Gage
Publisher: Soho Press
ISBN: 1616954779
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The Awana tribe, who live in the remote Amazon jungle in the Brazilian state of Pará, have dwindled to only 41 members—and now 39 of them have dropped dead of what looks like poison. The neighboring white townsfolk don’t seem to be mourning the genocide much—in fact, the only person who seems to care at all is Jade Calmon, the official tribal relations agent assigned to the area. She wants justice for the two survivors, a father and his 8-year-old son. But racism is deeply entrenched and no one is going to help her get to the truth. Unfortunately, this is far from the first time the Brazilian federal police have had a tribal genocide to investigate. Chief Inspector Mario Silva and his team are sent in from Brasilia to try to solve the increasingly complex case just as a local white man is discovered murdered. Someone has done their best to frame the surviving Awana man, and the town is about to erupt.

Metaphor in Culture
Author: Zoltán Kövecses
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139444611
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
To what extent and in what ways is metaphorical thought relevant to an understanding of culture and society? More specifically: can the cognitive linguistic view of metaphor simultaneously explain both universality and diversity in metaphorical thought? Cognitive linguists have done important work on universal aspects of metaphor, but they have paid much less attention to why metaphors vary both interculturally and intraculturally as extensively as they do. In this book, Zoltán Kövecses proposes a new theory of metaphor variation. First, he identifies the major dimension of metaphor variation, that is, those social and cultural boundaries that signal discontinuities in human experience. Second, he describes which components, or aspects of conceptual metaphor are involved in metaphor variation, and how they are involved. Third, he isolates the main causes of metaphor variation. Fourth Professor Kövecses addresses the issue to the degree of cultural coherence in the interplay among conceptual metaphors, embodiment, and causes of metaphor variation.

Get Out of the Ground
Author: Renee Odom
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1640794638

Languages : en
Pages : 65
Book Description
God's testimony: God wrote my story out of Genesis to Revelation of truth of my life with him. God knew all of me before he placed me in my birth father and placed me in my mother's womb. We all have a story with God. Get Out of the Ground is about my repentance, cleansing, and change of life because of the following: • Consented: baptism of Jesus Christ Lord and Savior of my life. • Accepted God's breath of life. • Accepted God's wisdom and knowledge with understanding. • Accepted God's chastisement. • Accepted God's love. • Did not accept God's Holy Spirit of Truth to guide my life. I wasn't taught that the Holy Spirit lived in me and what it represented in my life. • My testimony of knowing and not knowing. Yet I became what God spoke of in Revelation 2 and 3 about the seven churches. I had forsaken it all. I had fallen deep in the ground, that his voice of love reached down on me and pulled me up out of the ground and set me on a solid foundation and started teaching me who the Holy Spirit of Truth is inside of me and how it is to be used in me. I had the Christian walk, but I did not have the spiritual walk. To all God's children I pray that this story help you to see your story and God\'s story for your life in Jesus Christ, Amen.
