    Im t?glichen Leben hindern uns die fortschreitenden Entwicklungen unserer technischen Hochkultur immer wieder daran, die Urspr?nglichkeiten der Natur klar zu fokussieren. Die unermesslich vielen Informationen die wir im gesellschaftlichen Leben verarbeiten, lenken weitgehend von unseren intuitiven F?higkeiten ab. Wertvolle Informationen ?ber das Wirken der Natur bleiben uns vorenthalten. Gerade diese Informationen sind jedoch notwendig um das Wesen der Natur zu verstehen.

  • Occupied by Memory John Collins

    Язык: Английский
    Occupied by Memory explores the memories of the first Palestinian intifada. Based on extensive interviews with members of the «intifada generation,» those who were between 10 and 18 years old when the intifada began in 1987, the book provides a detailed look at the intifada memories of ordinary Palestinians. These personal stories are presented as part of a complex and politically charged discursive field through which young Palestinians are invested with meaning by scholars, politicians, journalists, and other observers. What emerges from their memories is a sense of a generation caught between a past that is simultaneously traumatic, empowering, and exciting—and a future that is perpetually uncertain. In this sense, Collins argues that understanding the stories and the struggles of the intifada generation is a key to understanding the ongoing state of emergency for the Palestinian people. The book will be of interest not only to scholars of the Middle East but also to those interested in nationalism, discourse analysis, social movements, and oral history.

    Remembering Fr. Benedict Groeschel, CFR
    Defender of the outcast, acclaimed teacher and spiritual director, insightful psychologist, and founding member of a thriving religious community, Father Benedict J. Groeschel was not merely a man of uncommon talents but one of extraordinary achievements.
    Yet at heart he was a simple friar, a humble priest; and his goal in life was very modest: to follow as best he could the path God had chosen for him.
    For over eighty years-more than fifty of them as a priest-Father Groeschel faithfully walked that path; and, in so doing, he gave hope to abandoned youth, to pregnant women who were homeless and alone, to many of those people whom society so easily and thoughtlessly discards.
    An electrifying speaker and a writer of real talent, he was responsible for rekindling the love for God in the hearts of many whose faith had turned to ashes. And his legendary devotion to the poor led him to help found the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, with the mission to serve those who had little or nothing.
    A Friar's Tale is an inspiring, moving, and sometimes humorous biography that invites readers to immerse themselves in the fascinating details of a remarkable life, one animated by faith and devoted to love.
