Women do have a history of their own. All we need to do is remember it. In this illuminating new investigation, Christine Lehnen looks back at our collective memory to explore the myriad ways that women in the past have enjoyed a more egalitarian life. Due to advances in bioarchaeological methods, scientists have discovered that one out of three women in Ancient Scythia was an active warrior buried with her weapons. Far from being confined to their homes, these women rode out to hunt, travelled to distance places, or used weapons to fend off their enemies. These warriors were no exceptions to the rule, with women enjoying a significantly higher degree of equality than their Greek contemporaries. Remembering Women argues that there is a historical precedent for a fairer society. From reappraisals of well-known objects such as the earliest human bone calendars from the Stone Age to revelatory findings of innovative bioarcheological methods used on human remains from Ancient Scythia, evidence is accumulating that there were places in the past where all women were allowed to thrive. Interweaving new findings from archaeology with the stories of her mother and grandmothers, as well as her everyday experiences as a woman living today, Lehnen explores our collective memory of women and argues that it needs to change if we are to create an egalitarian society. Remembering Women follows the traces left in the material, literary, and archaeological record by our foremothers, and their heirlooms, artwork and stories, to take a fresh look at our life in the present.

Remembering Bears is the seventh book in the Remembering Wildlife fundraising series, which has so far raised more than USD $1.5 million for conservation. For the 7th book in the much-lauded Remembering Wildlife series, the organizers have chosen for the first time to leave Africa and to feature bears. There are eight species of bear: American black bears, Andean bears, Asiatic black bears, brown bears, giant pandas, polar bears, sloth bears and sun bears. There are fascinating differences between them, which have implications for their behavior, evolution and conservation. Their habitats range from forests to woodland, grasslands to sea ice and their behaviors reflect that too. From climbing to swimming, fishing to hibernation, their differences are intriguing and captivating and through stunning imagery this book will show that and also bring attention to the threats they face. Like all of the species we’ve previously featured in our series, the challenges bears face are all sadly, once again man-made. From climate change to habitat loss; and from hunting to the illegal trade in body parts, including the Asiatic bear bile trade, our impact threatens their very future on this planet. Remembering Bears will feature images from more than 80 of the world’s best wildlife photographers, showing bears in their natural habitats from China to Peru, Alaska to Borneo.

Written by the best-selling author of Islam and the Destiny of Man, Remembering God is a profound analysis of the most urgent concerns and questions facing us at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Contrasting modern, secular society with religion and tradition in general and with Islam in particular, Gai Eaton clarifies the essential need for spirituality, religion and values based on eternal principles. The main ideas expounded in Remembering God are that religion is not an isolated part of human life which can be disregarded at will and without consequences; that a total rejection of the past cannot be the basis for the future, and that a true link with Heaven modifies all the decisions and actions of society.Touching on religion in principle: metaphysics, knowledge of the divine and of oneself, prayer, the necessity for purifying the ego; and on the application of religion to society: politics, architecture, the environment and gender relations, Gai Eaton illustrates the subtle harmony of a religious perspective and its ability to transform both the individual and society.

The novel, bordering between real story and fantasy, controversial by nature, has been written by an experienced author, established up to now in a different genre. Hence the author s need for pseudonym. The plotline is based on the return of Jesus Christ to the earth after more than 2000 years. Jesus Christ is acting as a tabloid sports reporter and a good sportsman, a footballer, interpreting the New Testament and its key events through the 21st-century human way of thinking. Through witty dialogues, Jesus reveals God as an illiterate, who speaks only Hebrew, a bad father, a speed demon and the like, and accuses Him of having made many mistakes.Furthermore, Jesus presents God with a Jesus 2010 project, aimed at averting the decline of Christian faith. In the end, God agrees to it. Jesus Christ then puts the project into practice, rectifying many errors in the interpretation of Christian history often in shocking ways. Concrete procedures are discussed by the two characters over mobile phones.In the spirit of a worldly, cheerful story, Jesus Christ returns to the earth in the Czech Republic, the place he has chosen as a base for his pilot project and his plan to save the world - because the Garden of Eden may well have been situated there. Capable of performing miracles, Jesus searches for a new way of existence in a common lay and secular milieu of the 21st century. He is confronted with situations he has been only theoretically prepared for and he works on his relation to women and to property: he buys a flat and a good car, he is successful at his job, he finds a girlfriend, loses virginity, discovers the sexual side of his life, gets a dog, conceives a son…Jesus miracles affect politics, corruption, sport, show-business and the fates of humans as well. He is the cause of major turns in various social affairs. Just as during his first life, even in a democratic society Jesus creates tension with his daring actions, acting not only as Jesus Christ but as a brave man, too. Quickly, he becomes a celebrity but faces more and more problems. Eventually, he gets crucified again, this time in the 21st century and in a civilized manner: shot dead treacherously from behind. The final part of the story shifts to a thriller genre.The main feature of the story, despite its tragic ending, is humor. It makes faith in God more human through the faith in positive values of human life, such as the truth, honor or attempts to act justly and do good - something people are not capable of anymore. That is why Jesus Christ had to return.pThe novel is a success, regarded as an outstanding one. However, the Czech market is very small.

A study of the doctrine of Christ that is biblical and historical, evangelical and ecumenical, conceptually clear and contextually relevant.Lord Jesus Christ expounds the doctrine of Christ by focusing upon theological interpretation of Scripture regarding Jesus s identity. The book s structure traces a Christological arc from the eternal communion of the Triune God through creation, covenants, Incarnation, passion, and exaltation all the way to the consummation of redemptive history. This arc identifies Jesus as the divine Lord who assumed human flesh for our salvation.The book expounds and defends a classically Reformed Christology in relation to contemporary contexts and challenges, engaging both philosophical and global concerns. Each chapter begins with the theological interpretation of a key Scripture text before expounding key concepts of orthodox Protestant Christology. Lord Jesus Christ is a unique example of writing dogmatic theology by way of theological exegesis. The result is a volume that engages the numerous scholarly volumes on Christology that have appeared within the last couple of decades but provides a contemporary account of a traditional view.About the Series:New Studies in Dogmatics seeks to retrieve the riches of Christian doctrine for the sake of contemporary theological renewal. Following in the tradition of G. C. Berkouwer s Studies in Dogmatics, this series will provide thoughtful, concise, and readable treatments of major theological topics, expressing the biblical, creedal, and confessional shape of Christian doctrine for a contemporary evangelical audience. The editors and contributors share a common conviction that the way forward in constructive systematic theology lies in building upon the foundations laid in the church s historic understanding of the Word of God as professed in its creeds, councils, and confessions, and by its most trusted teachers.

Téměř vždy, když se někdo pokusí uvést ji na divadle, jsou z toho protesty a výhrůžky. Corpus Christi totiž vypráví život Ježíše Krista v dobově aktuální metamorfóze: v gay komunitě současné Ameriky. McNally ale nepíše „gay Ježíše z Texasu“, aby původní látku zesměšnil, nýbrž naopak. Píše ho v kontextu hnutí potlačovaných skupin – v kontextu „černých Ježíšů“, „ženských Ježíšů“ a „indiánských Ježíšů“, aby ukázal, že i homosexuálové mají právo si tento příběh „přeložit“ po svém. To proto náboženská pravice nad Corpus Christi tak zuří.

Hra Corpus Christi (1998) Terrence McNallyho je jedním z nejtřaskavějších uměleckých děl současnosti. Téměř vždy, když se někdo pokusí uvést ji na divadle, jsou z toho protesty a výhrůžky. Corpus Christi totiž vypráví život Ježíše Krista v dobově aktuální metamorfóze: v gay komunitě současné Ameriky. McNally ale nepíše gay Ježíše z Texasu , aby původní látku zesměšnil, nýbrž naopak. Píše ho v kontextu hnutí potlačovaných skupin - v kontextu černých Ježíšů , ženských Ježíšů a indiánských Ježíšů , aby ukázal, že i homosexuálové mají právo si tento příběh přeložit po svém. To proto náboženská pravice nad Corpus Christi tak zuří.

A bold and brilliant short work by the author of the Goldsmiths Prize-winning CuddyNovember, 1971. Berlin, Germany. Opening night. Klaus Kinski, Germanyâ ™s most controversial actor, steps into the spotlight to a crowd of thousands.After years of making movies abroad, he has returned to the stage for a much-publicized one-man performance about Jesus Christ. As the crowd turn on him and violence is threatened, it is also very nearly his last. After this week, he will never perform on stage again.Exactly fifty years later, a hypochondriac writer, housebound by winter snowstorms, becomes fixated with video footage of Kinski at his most manic. In this forensic analysis, he strays into the darker corners of modern culture, and finally begins to understand the compulsive urge that drives artists to the edge of sanity in their pursuit of perfection.Jesus Christ Kinski is a novel about a film about a performance about Jesus. It is a daring act of literary ventriloquism, a meditation on censorship, creativity, loneliness â “ and just how far our tolerance is tested by bad people who make great art.Praise for Benjamin Myersâ ˜One of our finest, and most deftly imaginative, writersâ ™ i news â ˜Radical and gorgeousâ ™ Max Porterâ ˜A writer of extraordinary and incandescent talentâ ™ Alex Preston
