The Amish: The History and Legacy of One of America's Oldest and Most Unique Communities by Charles River Editors English | February 3, 2018 | ISBN: 1985003147 | 64 pages | EPUB | 1.24 Mb *Includes pictures *Includes Amish proverbs and descriptions of Amish life *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading "We live simply so others may simply live." - Amish Proverb Back in the 16th century, the Protestant Reformation took Europe by storm. The havoc wreaked saw the split of churches and the emergence of the Amish, led by Jakob Ammann. By the 18th century, a group of Amish had crossed the seas to the United States, where they made their home, and today the Amish are now one of the fastest-growing populations in the world. Buggies, straw hats, long and plain dresses in shades of blue and black, charming log cabins reminiscent of the Little House on the Prairie - this is often the mental image that comes to mind when one thinks of the Amish. Nowadays, many have become accustomed to being within a 10 foot radius of at least 3 pieces of technology every hour of the day. World news and current events has never been more readily available, accessible by just a touch of a fingertip. Yet there exists a collection of cultures worldwide that steer clear of contemporary society for a range of reasons. These communities, which also come in various forms dispersed around the world, are the descendants of the Swiss Anabaptist movement. The Amish are famed for their simple living, commitment to sanctity, and being a community that seems to be at a standstill in time. What is less known about them is the deep culture, tradition, and faith, making them one of the most unique in the constellation of communities that have ever graced civilization. Americans have heard of the Amish, but most know little about them. They are often seen as unconventional and strictly religious, but quiet, calm folk who keep to themselves. Those who have heard of them know of their rejection of electricity and most, if not all modern aspects of life. Those who have taken a gander at the dozens of "reality shows" that have sprung up over recent years may have even heard of the ever-so-famous - but often inaccurately depicted - Rumspringa. But beyond the buggies and prayer bonnets lies an intriguing culture that has remained strictly loyal to its roots. The Amish: The History and Legacy of One of America's Oldest and Most Unique Communities explores the history, customs, and inner-workings of the Amish communities, as well as the criticisms and controversies associated with them over the years.. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about the Amish like never before.
The Age of Interconnection by Sperber, Jonathan; English | 2022 | ISBN: 0190918950 | 817 pages | True PDF EPUB | 109.14 MB The African Caliphate: The Life, Works and Teaching of Shaykh Usman Dan Fodio By Ibraheem Sulaiman, Abdalhaqq Bewley (ed.) 2009 | 331 Pages | ISBN: 1842001116 | PDF | 2 MB This scholarly work, The African Caliphate, focuses on the establishment in 1809, in what is today Northern Nigeria, of the celebrated Sokoto caliphate, which may well have been the last complete re-establishment, anywhere in the world, of Islam in its entirety, comprising all its many and varied dimensions. As well as giving the biography of the Shehu and a comprehensive account of the history of his movement, the book also provides an in-depth examination of his teaching and literary works. These factors are all inextricably interwoven since, in a way scarcely equalled by any other historical figure, the Shehu's writings sprang directly out of the exigencies and requirements of his immediate situation and were what drove his movement forward and gave it its momentum. As will be seen, his sole inspiration and source of guidance in every instance were the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger # to such a point that he even died at exactly the same age. It is also astonishing how relevant the Shehu's teachings are, in spite of the clear difference in both time and environment, to the situation of so many Muslims in the world today and the solution to many of the problems currently besetting Islam are clearly indicated within its pages.17 x 23 cm. 326 pagesMalam Ibraheem SulaimanThe author teaches law at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria, and is a research fellow at the University's centre for Islamic legal studies, where he was the director for a decade. He has attended seminars and conferences in many different countries and presented papers on islam, shari'a and political affairs.Source: Publisher The African American Writer's Handbook: How to Get in Print and Stay in Print By Robert Fleming 2000 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 0345423275 | EPUB | 3 MB With African Americans writing and buying books in record numbers, the time is ripe for a comprehensive publishing guide tailored expressly to the needs of this vibrant, creative community.
