I am convinced that there is one sole everlasting principle. This I have always believed. But what he is like in himself, this no one has ever come to know perfectly. Nor will he come to know it, even if he devotes his whole life and all his effort to this task. He will only come to find by experience that much remains for him to investigate, and that the only fruit he has acquired by his past labor is this: he knows that God is. Those words were written about 1600 years ago by a great theologian, St. Ephraem the Syrian. Let them be a warning to you and to me: to me lest I ambition too much in what remains of a lifetime of theology: to you, lest you expect too much of me. As hopefully, we shall understand more profoundly at the conclusion of this work, St. Ephraem's words are far from minimizing. What he sums up as the fruit of a lifetime's effort is in a sense the sum of all that can be said in telling about God, with ever firmer grasp of the meaning of the words, by any one who has come to some degree of understanding within a life of faith. Yet, I hope too that we shall come to some deeper meaning of St. Ephraem's words, to a complementary affirmation, and to a realization that when we shall have finished any stage of our telling about God, there will always remain another, more vital step.

Non-lieux PDF By:Marc Augé Published on 1995 by Verso An ever-increasing proportion of our lives is spent in supermarkets, airports and hotels, on motorways or in front of TVs, computer and cash machines. This invasion of the world by what Marc Auge calls non-space results in a profound alteration of awareness- something we perceive, but only in a partial and incoherent manner. Auge uses the concept of supermodernity to describe the logic of these late-capitalist phenomena a logic of excessive information and excessive space. In this fascinating and lucid essay he seeks to establish and intellectual armature for an anthropology of supermodernity. Starting with an attempt to disentangle anthropology from history, Auge goes on to map the distinction between place, encrusted with historical monuments and creative social life, and non-place, to which individuals are connected in a uniform manner and where no organic social life is possible. Unlike Baudelairean modernity, where old and new ...

Download Shared Sacred Sites PDF Free

Shared Sacred Sites PDF By:Karen Barkey,Dionigi Albera,Manoël Pénicaud Published on 2018 by There could be no better illustration of coexistence than the extensive history of religious sites shared by members of different beliefs and backgrounds. Chronicles of the three Abrahamic religions are full of examples of cohabitation, hospitality, and tolerance despite a world torn apart by cultural, ethnic, and spiritual struggles. Maps of the Mediterranean and Near East are strewn with shrines that have long been the sites of convergence for prayers, wishes, and contemplation, yet their origins of sharing differ. Often local populations perceive a benefit of another group's sacred space, either recognized by open-minded leaders who preach unity or by members of different religious groups who share said space for pragmatic reasons. Our contemporary world contains numerous cases of such crossings, many of which are documented in this catalogue. Shared Sacred Sites is published on the occas...

Allah's Kolkhozes PDF By:Stéphane A. Dudoignon,Christian Noack Published on 2013 by |The larger part of the Muslim population in the Soviet realm lived and continues to live in rural areas. Other than in many parts of the present-day world of Islam, alternative, self-segregated, often anti-establishment Muslim congregations emerged outside the big urban agglomerations of the former USSR. Among other factors of this emergence can be mentioned: the mass resettlements operated from the 1940s to the 1970s towards cash-crop growing lowlands; the tight limitation on the drift from the land by the Soviet authorities; the relative autonomy enjoyed by rural production units endowed with specialised economic profiles; and the liberalisation of religious practice in the wake of de-Stalinisation. Eleven case studies trace the transformations of Soviet and post-Soviet Islam within the former collectivised villages in Central Asia, the Caucasus and Inner Russia. The authors provide rich evidence...
