 Cyber Persistence Theory by Michael P. Fischerkeller;Emily O. Goldman;Richard J. Harknett; English | 2022 | ISBN: 0197638252 | 273 pages | True PDF EPUB | 18.11 MB  Cut in Stone: Confederate Monuments and Theological Disruption By Ryan Andrew Newson 2020 | 240 Pages | ISBN: 1481312162 | PDF | 4 MB Confederate monuments figure prominently as epicenters of social conflict. These stone and metal constructs resonate with the tensions of modern America, giving concrete definition to the ideologies that divide us. Confederate monuments alone did not generate these feelings of aggravation, but they are far from innocent. Rather than serving as neutral objects of public remembrance, Confederate monuments articulate a narration of the past that forms the basis for a normative vision of the future. The story, told through the character of a religious mythos, carries implicit sacred convictions; thus, these spires and statues are inherently theological.In Cut in Stone, Ryan Andrew Newson contends that we cannot fully understand or disrupt these statues without attending to the convictions that give them their power. With a careful overview of the historical contexts in which most Confederate monuments were constructed, Newson demonstrates that these "memorials" were part of a revisionary project intended to resist the social changes brought on by Reconstruction while maintaining a romanticized Southern identity. Confederate monuments thus reinforce a theology concerning the nature of sacrifice and the ultimacy of whiteness. Moreover, this underlying theology serves to conceal inherited collective wounds in the present.If Confederate monuments are theologically weighted in their allure, then it stands to reason that they must also be contested at this level―precisely as sacred symbols. Newson responds to these inherently theological objects with suggestions for action that are sensitive to the varying contexts within which monuments reside, showing that while all Confederate monuments must come under scrutiny, some monuments should remain standing, but in redefined contexts. Cut in Stone represents the first detailed theological investigation of Confederate monuments, a resource for the larger collective task of determining how to memorialize problematic pasts and how to shape public space amidst contested memory.

Cultural Capital and Parental Involvement: A Comparison of Students' Music Participation between Beijing and Hong Kong English | 2023 | ISBN: 981199031X | 300 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 2 MB  Marcellino D'Ambrosio, Gloria Esteban Villar, Mark Sullivan, "Cuando la Iglesia era joven: Las voces de los primeros Padres" Español | 2016 | pages: 272 | ISBN: 8490614156 | EPUB | 0,4 mb Si la palabra Trinidad no aparece en la Escritura, ¿por qué juega un papel tan importante en nuestra fe? Y si la Biblia está abierta a distintas interpretaciones ¿con cuál de ellas nos quedamos? Es más: ¿quién ha decidido qué es lo que debe formar parte de la Biblia? Los Padres de la Iglesia son quienes pueden responder estas preguntas. Fueron estos hombres brillantes y combativos quienes fijaron el canon bíblico, esculpieron el Credo y nos han permitido comprender qué son los sacramentos o qué significa salvación. Ellos fueron los que preservaron y nos transmitieron el rico legado de la Iglesia primitiva. D'Ambrosio, gracias a sus conocimientos y a su capacidad comunicativa, ha sido capaz de transformar la árida teología - sin perder la precisión teológica - en historias fascinantes de grandes personajes como Ambrosio, Agustín, Basilio, Atanasio, Crisóstomo o Jerónimo. Por ello, este libro nos pone en contacto directo con el empuje y vitalidad de una Iglesia joven y de un nuevo mensaje que comenzaba a expandirse por el mundo. "Con este relato tan asequible y cautivador, el Dr. D'ambrosio ha culminado la rara hazaña de combinar el interés con la profundidad académica.
