Free Download Liturgical Theology after Schmemann: An Orthodox Reading of Paul Ricoeur By by Butcher FBA, Brian A. (Author), Andrew Louth FBA (Foreword)
2018 | 361 Pages | ISBN: 0823278751 | PDF | 3 MB
While only rarely reflecting explicitly on liturgy, French philosopher Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) gave sustained attention to several themes pertinent to the interpretation of worship, including metaphor, narrative, subjectivity, and memory. Inspired by his well-known aphorism, "The symbol gives rise to thought," Liturgical Theology after Schmemann offers an original exploration of the symbolic world of the Byzantine Rite , culminating in a Ricoeurian analysis of its Theophany "Great Blessing of Water." .The book examines two fundamental questions: 1) what are the implications of the philosopher's oeuvre for liturgical theology at large? And 2)how does the adoption of a Ricoeurian hermeneutic shape the study of a particular rite? Taking the seminal legacy of Orthodox theologian Alexander Schmemann (1921-1983) as its point of departure, Butcher contributes to the renewal of contemporary Eastern Christian thought and ritual practice by engaging a spectrum of current theological and philosophical conversations.

Free Download Life After MH370: Journeying Through a Void By K.S. Narendran
2018 | 240 Pages | ISBN: 9386432153 | EPUB | 3 MB
There are at least 239 stories waiting to be told at length - those of the families of 239passengers of MH370, how their lives took a turn on March 8th 2014 when MH370disappeared.This is the story of one person, Naren, who lost his wife, Chandrika on that flight.The probability of survivors diminished with each passing day. As the months went by,Naren remained pre-occupied, wrestling over what to believe. Some friends arguedinsistently against doomsday conclusions and spoke of their dreams as the basis tokeep up hope. Many others, including Naren's daughter, preferred silence overpredictions. The one argument against which there was no counter was: Where is theevidence? Where is the debris? Where are the passengers?Life After MH370 documents Naren's experience with loss, grief, trauma and sorrow.The struggle with 'ambiguous loss' morphs into a ceaseless search, for the scent of acover-up, for the truth, for that explanation that satisfies and helps one move on. A lossthat meant critically resizing shared dreams, reconfiguring relationships and attemptingto find a purpose that anchor him in the present.There is the hint of a promise in KS Narendran's story - of existential truths about livingand dying that might help anyone who comes upon this book.

Free Download Stephen E. Braude, "Immortal Remains: The Evidence for Life After Death"
English | 2003 | pages: 352 | ISBN: 0742514722, 0742514714 | EPUB | 0,8 mb
Do you believe in ghosts? Chances are you're either too willing, or not willing enough, to believe that personal consciousness survives after bodily death. Some underestimate the evidence for life after death, not realizing how impressive the most convincing cases are. Others overestimate it, rejecting alternative explanations too readily. In fact, several non-survivalist explanations―hidden or latent linguistic or artistic talents, extreme memory, even psychic abilities―are as interesting as the hypothesis of survival, and may be more plausible than their critics realize. Immortal Remains takes a fresh look at some of the most puzzling cases suggesting life after death, and considers how to tell evidence for an afterlife from evidence for exotic things (including psychic things) done by the living. Author Stephen E. Braude, who has done extensive research in parapsychology and dissociation, explores previously ignored issues about dissociation, creativity, linguistic skills, and the nature and limits of human abilities. He concludes that we have some reason, finally, for believing in life after death.

Free Download Phoebe von Held, "Alienation and Theatricality: Diderot After Brecht"
English | 2011 | pages: 254 | ISBN: 1906540128, 0367602148 | EPUB | 0,7 mb
Alienation (Vefremdung) is a concept inextricably linked with the name of twentieth-century German playwright Bertolt Brecht - with modernism, the avant-garde and Marxist theory. However, as Phoebe von Held argues in this book, 'alienation' as a sociological and aesthetic notionavant la lettre had already surfaced in the thought of eighteenth-century French philosopher and writer Denis Diderot. This original study destabilizes the conventional understanding of alienation through a reading ofLe Paradoxe sur le comedien, Le Neveu de Rameau and other works by Diderot, opening up new ways of interpretation and aesthetic practices. If alienation constitutes a historical development for the Marxist Brecht, for Diderot it defines an existential condition. Brecht uses the alienation-effect to undermine a form of naturalism based on subjectivity, identification and illusion; Diderot, by contrast, plunges the spectator into identification and illusion, to produce an aesthetic of theatricality that is profoundly alienating and yet remains anchored in subjectivity.
