In her innovative exploration of national imagination in the Bible, Pardes highlights the textual manifestations of the metaphor, the many anthropomorphisms by which a collective character named "Israel" springs to life. She explores the representation of communal motives, hidden desires, collective anxieties, the drama and suspense embedded in each phase of the nation's life: from birth in exile, to suckling in the wilderness, to a long process of maturation that has no definite end. In the Bible, Pardes suggests, history and literature go hand in hand more explicitly than in modern historiography, which is why the Bible serves as a paradigmatic case for examining the narrative base of national constructions. ![]() Free Download The Bill Gates Problem: Reckoning with the Myth of the Good Billionaire by Tim Schwab English | November 14, 2023 | ISBN: 1250850096 | 496 pages | PDF | 4.83 Mb New York Times Editors' Choice ![]() Free Download The Big Book of Drone Real Estate Photography: Learn How to Make Money Showcasing Properties with Stunning Aerial Shots by Riley Stevens English | March 24, 2024 | ASIN: B0CW1GW2CV | 88 pages | PDF | 32 Mb ![]() Free Download The Bible in music : a dictionary of songs, works, and more By Siobhan Dowling Long & John F. A. Sawyer 2015 | 339 Pages | ISBN: 0810884518 | EPUB | 1 MB There have been numerous publications in the last decades on the Bible in literature, film, and art. But until now, no reference work has yet appeared on the Bible as it appears in Western music. In The Bible in Music: A Dictionary of Songs, Works, and More, scholars Siobhan Dowling Long and John F. A. Sawyer correct this gap in Biblical reference literature, providing for the first time a convenient guide to musical interpretations of the Bible. Alongside examples of classical music from the Middle Ages through modern times, Dowling Long and Sawyer also bring attention to the Bible's impact on popular culture with numerous entries on hymns, spirituals, musicals, film music, and contemporary popular music.Each entry contains essential information about the original context of the work (date, composer, etc.) and, where relevant, its afterlife in literature, film, politics, and liturgy. It includes an index of biblical references and an index of biblical names, as well as a detailed timeline that brings to the fore key events, works and publications, placing them in their historical context. There is also a bibliography, a glossary of technical terms and an index of artists, authors, and composers.The Bible in Music will fascinate anyone familiar with the Bible, but it is also designed to encourage choirs, musicians, musicologists, lecturers, teachers, and students of music and religious education to discover and perform some less well-known pieces, as well as helping them to listen to familiar music with a fresh awareness of what it is about. ![]() Free Download The Biased Brain: A Comprehensive Exploration of Cognitive Distortions by Bo Bennett English | July 18, 2023 | ISBN: 1456641204 | 472 pages | PDF | 3.38 Mb Unravel the Secrets of Your Mind: A Journey into Cognitive Biases ![]() Free Download Patricia Bolton, "The Best of Quilting Arts: Your Ultimate Resource for Art Quilt Techniques and Inspiration" English | 2011 | ISBN: 1596683996 | PDF | pages: 161 | 61.4 mb Celebrate the first 10 years of the groundbreaking Quilting Arts magazine with The Best of Quilting Arts, a collection of the best articles, projects, and techniques. ![]() Free Download Emmanuel Goldstein, "The Best of 2600: A Hacker Odyssey" English | 2008 | ISBN: 0470294191 | EPUB | pages: 867 | 2.6 mb Since 1984, the quarterly magazine 2600 has provided fascinating articles for readers who are curious about technology.
