The Tyranny of Heaven
Author: Michael Bryson
Publisher: University of Delaware Press
ISBN: 9780874138597
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
The Tyranny of Heaven argues for a new way of reading the figure of Milton's God, contending that Milton rejects kings on earth and in heaven. Though Milton portrays God as a king in Paradise Lost, he does this neither to endorse kingship nor to recommend a monarchical model of deity. Instead, he recommends the Son, who in Paradise Regained rejects external rule as the model of politics and theology for Milton's fit audience though few. The portrait of God in Paradise Lost serves as a scathing critique of the English people and its slow but steady backsliding into the political habits of a nation long used to living under the yoke of kingship, a nation that maintained throughout its brief period of liberty the image of God as a heavenly king, and finally welcomed with open arms the return of a human king. Michael Bryson is a Visiting Assistant Professor of English at Northwestern University.

The Tyranny of God
Author: Marquez Comelab
Publisher: Oranges and Lime
ISBN: 9780646501697
Category : Belief and doubt
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Everything we do is based on what we believe. Our religious beliefs influence where we stand on many important issues like sexuality, abortion, ethics and terrorism, amongst many others. In a democracy, we vote for leaders to whom we abrogate responsibility to make decisions that affect us all. Since all votes are equal, the value of a well thought-out vote is the same as that of a careless one. We owe it to ourselves, to each other and to our children to be well-informed so we can start making more educated decisions today. If a religion is a true religion, it would place kindness, compassion and understanding at the top of its priorities. Why, then, do so many religious people hate, or discriminate against, people that are not like them? If religion stood for peace and harmony, why is there so much killing done in its name? There are far too many contradictions. In seeking to understand the meaning of life, morality and what it means to be human, this book starts with the Big Bang and tells the story of how we evolved and how we have come to oppress ourselves with the tyranny of our own beliefs.
