This Thing Called Life: Russian Version
by Ernest HolmesThe great contribution of Ernest Holmes to modern thought is the specific form of meditation and prayer by which man can control outward conditions of his life instead of permitting conditions to control him. Based soundly and thoughtfully upon the teachings of Jesus and other great spiritual leaders and philosophers, THIS THING CALLED LIFE is an outline of the practice of Faith by which problems of every kind may be solved by every man and woman, directly, simply and effectively.Recognised as one of the foremost teachers of religious science and philosophy since William James, in this book Mr. Holmes courageously declares that for centuries man has been putting the cart before the horse, that he is not helpless in the face of poverty, disease, evil and unhappiness, but that by this clear and simple system of thought and faith he can dominate them and introduce into his experience their exact opposites—abundance, health, good and happiness. If man will try and learn how to think, writes Mr. Holmes, he can dominate his entire life and everything in and around it.

Three Views on Israel and the Church: Perspectives on Romans 9-11 (Viewpoints)
by Jared Compton Andrew David NaselliA comparison of three major views on the relationship between Israel and the churchThe relationship between Israel and the church is a long-standing debate in Christian theology, and Romans 9–11 are the most important chapters for understanding it. How one interprets these chapters determines how one understands biblical theology, how the New Testament uses the Old Testament, and how the old and new covenants are related.To help readers draw their own conclusion, four leading scholars on this issue present a case for their viewpoint, followed by a response and critique from the others. Michael Vlach argues for a future mass conversion and a role for ethnic Israel in the church. Fred Zaspel and Jim Hamilton present a case for a future mass conversion that does not include a role for ethnic Israel. And Benjamin Merkle contends that Romans 9-11 promises neither a future mass conversion nor a role for ethnic Israel.General editor Andrew David Naselli helpfully sets the debate in its larger biblical-theological context in the introduction, while Jared Compton provides a useful summary of the views and interactions at the end of the volume.

Time and Its Adversaries in the Seleucid Empire
by Paul J. KosminUnder Seleucid rule, time no longer restarted with each new monarch. Instead, progressively numbered years, identical to the system we use today, became the measure of historical duration. Paul Kosmin shows how this invention of a new kind of time—and resistance to it—transformed the way we organize our thoughts about the past, present, and future.
A Time to Stir: Columbia '68 (Columbiana)
by Paul CroninFor seven days in April 1968, students occupied five buildings on the campus of Columbia University to protest a planned gymnasium in a nearby Harlem park, links between the university and the Vietnam War, and what they saw as the university’s unresponsive attitude toward their concerns. Exhilarating to some and deeply troubling to others, the student protests paralyzed the university, grabbed the world’s attention, and inspired other uprisings. Fifty years after the events, A Time to Stir captures the reflections of those who participated in and witnessed the Columbia rebellion.With more than sixty essays from members of the Columbia chapter of Students for a Democratic Society, the Students’ Afro-American Society, faculty, undergraduates who opposed the protests, “outside agitators,” and members of the New York Police Department, A Time to Stir sheds light on the politics, passions, and ideals of the 1960s. Moving beyond accounts from the student movement’s white leadership, this book presents the perspectives of black students, who were grappling with their uneasy integration into a supposedly liberal campus, as well as the views of women, who began to question their second-class status within the protest movement and society at large. A Time to Stir also speaks to the complicated legacy of the uprising. For many, the events at Columbia inspired a lifelong dedication to social causes, while for others they signaled the beginning of the chaos that would soon engulf the left. Taken together, these reflections present a nuanced and moving portrait that reflects the sense of possibility and excess that characterized the 1960s.

Title IX: The Transformation of Sex Discrimination in Education (Critical Moments in American History)
by Elizabeth Kaufer Busch William E. ThroThis book examines the history and evolution of Title IX, a landmark 1972 law prohibiting sex discrimination at educational institutions receiving federal funding. Elizabeth Kaufer Busch and William Thro illuminate the ways in which the interpretation and implementation of Title IX have been transformed over time to extend far beyond the law's relatively narrow statutory text. The analysis considers the impact of Title IX on athletics, sexual harassment, sexual assault, and, for a time, transgender discrimination. Combining legal and cultural perspectives and supported by primary documents, Title IX: The Transformation of Sex Discrimination in Education offers a balanced and insightful narrative of interest to anyone studying the history of sex discrimination, educational policy, and the law in the contemporary United States.
To Cast the First Stone: The Transmission of a Gospel Story
by Jennifer Knust Tommy WassermanThe story of the woman taken in adultery features a dramatic confrontation between Jesus and the Pharisees over whether the adulteress should be stoned as the law commands. In response, Jesus famously states, “Let him who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” To Cast the First Stone traces the history of this provocative story from its first appearance to its enduring presence today.Likely added to the Gospel of John in the third century, the passage is often held up by modern critics as an example of textual corruption by early Christian scribes and editors, yet a judgment of corruption obscures the warm embrace the story actually received. Jennifer Knust and Tommy Wasserman trace the story’s incorporation into Gospel books, liturgical practices, storytelling, and art, overturning the mistaken perception that it was either peripheral or suppressed, even in the Greek East. The authors also explore the story’s many different meanings. Taken as an illustration of the expansiveness of Christ’s mercy, the purported superiority of Christians over Jews, the necessity of penance, and more, this vivid episode has invited any number of creative receptions. This history reveals as much about the changing priorities of audiences, scribes, editors, and scholars as it does about an “original” text of John.To Cast the First Stone calls attention to significant shifts in Christian book cultures and the enduring impact of oral tradition on the preservation—and destabilization—of scripture.

Toi aussi polyglotte
by Roberto Coppola Alexandra FrogerCe livre recueille les conseils des grands polyglottes et examine les méthodes les plus efficaces d'auto-apprentissage des langues étrangères, selon mon expérience de formateur et de traducteur. Un chapitre entier se consacre au développement d'une méthode personnelle « parfaite » pour atteindre l'objectif d'apprendre à parler, lire et écrire en quatre langues étrangères sur deux ans. L'étude d'une langue étrangère ressemble beaucoup à l'étude d'un instrument de musique. Prenons le piano, par exemple. Il est nécessaire d'avoir des connaissances de la « grammaire » musicale et nous devons acquérir la dextérité nécessaire pour déplacer nos dix doigts sur le clavier avec précision et sans bavure. L'objectif principal est d'apprendre à jouer du piano plutôt que d'apprendre la théorie de la musique. La théorie est un outil d'apprentissage, pas sa fin. Jusqu'à il y a quelques années, l'étude du piano débutait avec le solfège. Une pratique ennuyeuse qui durait plusieurs mois et qui empoisonnait la vie de tous les débutants. Désormais, l'étude du piano et de tous les instruments de musique a beaucoup changé, tout comme l'étude des langues étrangères. Le changement didactique a diminué l'intérêt pour la grammaire et a, en même temps, accru l'attention portée à la pratique. La conscience de la spécificité de l'étude des langues n'est pas une technique académique. C'est une prémisse indispensable, un principe qui doit guider tous nos efforts dès la toute première leçon. Nous devons toujours nous concentrer sur le progrès de notre savoir-faire, c'est-à-dire notre capacité à parler, lire et écrire. Contenu : Préface 1-Éclaircissons-nous les idées 2-Les grands polyglottes du passé 3-Ce qui est encore valide et ce qui ne l'est plus 4-Les grands polyglottes du présent 5-De la langue à ta langue 6-Les méthodes infaillibles 7-La méthode par
