![Apocalypse Television How the Day After Helped End the Cold War [Audiobook]](https://i123.fastpic.org/big/2024/0422/5a/462997e40c405a86186c0f5a176f205a.jpeg) Free Download David Craig, Robert Iger - foreword, Kim Niemi (Narrator), "Apocalypse Television: How the Day After Helped End the Cold War" English | ASIN: B0CY7CJRL8 | 2024 | MP3@64 kbps | ~08:54:00 | 252 MB On November 20, 1983, a three-hour made-for-TV movie, The Day After, premiered on ABC. Set in the heartland of Lawrence, Kansas, the film depicted the events before, during, and after a Soviet nuclear attack with vivid scenes of the post-apocalyptic hellscape that would follow. The film was viewed by over 100 million Americans and remains the highest rated TV movie in history. The path to primetime for The Day After proved nearly as treacherous as the film's narrative. Battles ensued behind the scenes at the network, between the network and the filmmakers. But these skirmishes pale in comparison to the culture wars triggered by the film in the press, alongside a growing Nuclear Freeze movement, and from a united, pro-nuclear Right. Once efforts to alter the script failed, the White House conducted a full-throttled propaganda campaign to hijack the film's message. Apocalypse Television features a dramatic insider's account of the making of and backlash against The Day After. No other book has told this story in similar fashion, venturing behind-the-scenes of the programming and news divisions at ABC, the backlash from the conservative movement and Religious Right, the challenges encountered by the film's production team, and the experiences of the citizens of Lawrence, Kansas, where the film was set and shot.

Free Download Father Elijah: An Apocalypse By Michael D. O'Brien 1997 | 597 Pages | ISBN: 0898706904 | EPUB | 1 MB Michael O'Brien presents a thrilling apocalyptic novel about the condition of the Roman Catholic Church at the end of time. It explores the state of the modern world, and the strengths and weaknesses of the contemporary religious scene, by taking his central character, Father Elijah Schafer, a Carmelite priest, on a secret mission for the Vatican which embroils him in a series of crises and subterfuges affecting the ultimate destiny of the Church. The Pope and the Cardinal Secretary of State call him out of obscurity and give him a task of the highest sensitivity: to penetrate into the inner circles of a man whom they believe may be the Antichrist. Their purpose: to call the Man of Sin to repentance, and thus to postpone the great tribulation long enough to preach the Gospel to the whole world.

This reading finds that the Isaiah Apocalypse redeploys and controls other texts, helping secure the authority of those texts as well as its own vision of the end. ![Lessons for Survival Mothering Against the Apocalypse [Audiobook]](https://i123.fastpic.org/big/2024/0324/98/7f7fd999d4c5942dc008b83a83fac798.jpeg) Free Download Lessons for Survival: Mothering Against "the Apocalypse" (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0B64FZXPM | 2024 | 9 hours and 37 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 279 MB Author: Emily Raboteau Narrator: Emily Raboteau Award-winning author and critic Emily Raboteau uses the lens of motherhood to craft a powerfully moving meditation on race, climate, environmental justice-and what it takes to find shelter. Lessons for Survival is a probing series of pilgrimages from the perspective of a mother struggling to raise her children to thrive without coming undone in an era of turbulent intersecting crises. With camera in hand, Raboteau goes in search of birds, fluttering in the air or painted on buildings, and ways her children may safely play in city parks while avoiding pollution, pandemics, and the police. She ventures abroad to learn from indigenous peoples, and in her own family and community discovers the most intimate meanings of resilience. Raboteau bears witness to the inner life of Black women/motherhood, and to the brutalities and possibilities of cities, while celebrating the beauty and fragility of nature. Lessons for Survival stitches together multiple stories of protection, offering a profound sense of hope.

Flipper 2015 | 343 Pages | ISBN: 1451484569 | PDF | 3 MB Between Apocalypse and Eschaton examines the systematic theology of Henri de Lubac, SJ, one of the most significant Catholic theologians of the twentieth century. While much of the recent work on de Lubac centers on the controversies surrounding his theology of the supernatural, Between Apocalypse and Eschaton argues that eschatology is the key to de Lubac's theological project and critical to understanding the nouvelle theologie, the group of theologians with whom de Lubac was associated. At the time, intra-Catholic controversies arose around the nouvelle theologie as part of a broader anxiety over the loss of the eternal in twentieth-century Europe. The German occupation of France in World War II was the backdrop for a renewed apocalyptic and eschatological thinking among French Catholics. The nouvelle theologiegenerated a debate over the meaning of "the end" that was critical to understanding the theological, spiritual, and political fissures in the postwar period. After World War II, de Lubac's writings increasingly focused on the theology of history and eschatology. The present work returns focus to this often neglected aspect of de Lubac's work.About the AuthorJoseph S. Flipper is assistant professor of theology at Bellarmine University in Louisville, Kentucky. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and was a Ford Foundation fellowship recipient. His most recent publication is the article "Suffering as Glory in Hans Urs von Balthasar and James Cone" in The Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium (2013).
