2016481<p>New unopened Unabridged 12½ hours on 10 compact discs.</p><p><em><strong>From an award-winning journalist a brave and necessary immersion into the everyday struggles of Palestinian life </strong></em><br /><br />Over the past three years American writer Ben Ehrenreich has been traveling to and living in the West Bank staying with Palestinian families in its largest cities and its smallest villages. Along the way he has written major stories for American outlets including a remarkable New York Times Magazine cover story. Now comes the powerful new work that has always been his ultimate goal The Way to the Spring.<br />We are familiar with brave journalists who travel to bleak or war-torn places on a mission to listen and understand to gather the stories of people suffering from extremes of oppression and want: Katherine Boo Ryszard Kapuściński Ted Conover and Philip Gourevitch among them. Palestine is by any measure whatever one's politics one such place. Ruled by the Israeli military set upon and harassed constantly by Israeli settlers who admit unapologetically to wanting to drive them from the land forced to negotiate an ever more elaborate and more suffocating series of fences checkpoints and barriers that have sundered home from field home from home this is a population whose living conditions are unique and indeed hard to imagine. In a great act of bravery empathy and understanding Ben Ehrenreich by placing us in the footsteps of ordinary Palestinians and telling their story with surpassing literary power and grace makes it impossible for us to turn away.</p> Penguin Audio

20054776Routledge 2005. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Text in English. 349 pp. <br /> <br /> How long can a traditional religion survive the impact of world religions state hegemony and globalization The 'Karamoja problem' is one that has perplexed colonial and independent governments alike. Now Karamojong notoriety for armed cattle raiding has attracted the attention of the UN and USAID since the proliferation of small arms in the pastoralist belt across Africa from Sudan to stateless Somalia is deemed a threat to world security. The consequences are ethnocidal but what makes African peoples stand out against state and global governance<br /> <br /> The traditional African religion of the The Karamojong despite the multiple external influences of the twentieth century and earlier has remained at the heart of their culture as it has changed through time. Drawing on oral accounts and the language itself as well as his extensive experience of living and working in the region Knighton avoids western perspectivism to highlight the successful reassertion of African beliefs and values over repeated attempts by interventionists to replace or subvert them. Knighton argues that the religious aspect of Karamojong culture with its persistent faith dimension is one of the key factors that have enabled them to maintain their amazing degree of religious political and military autonomy in the postmodern world. Using historical and anthropological approaches the real continuities within the culture and the reasons for the mysterious vitality of Karamojong religion are explored. Routledge hardcover

2006Alibris.0046025Gottingen: The Finnish Exegetical Society. 2006. Trade paperback. Fine. 298 p. bibliography. . What happens when scholars approach the prophetic books from a perspective informed by questions of idealized future utopia and the opposite vision dystopia When Ehud Ben Zvi Mark J. Boda Michael H. Floyd Hann Liss Matthew Neujahr Julia M. O'Brien Kathleen M. O'Connor Jack M. Sasson Steven J. Schweitzer Daniel L. Msith-Christopher and Marvin A. Sweeney intervene the result is an engaging polyphony. Their conversation focuses on ancient contexts of prophetic literature but deals at times also with habits of thinking about prophetic literature among critical scholars. It leads among others to numerous insights on literary and ideological features of these books and on the social circumstances in which these texts were produced and read as well on their roles within society and the discursive worlds of which they were an integral part. Although this volume focuses on prophetic literature many of the arguments advanced here bear implications for the study of utopian and dystopian images in ancient Israel in general.

2022204615London: Richard Saltoun Gallery 2022. Softcover. VG. Quarto. Stich bound softcover. Green kraft paper covers with red lettering. "Hong Kong-born artist and feminist theorist Rosa Lee 1957-2009 was one of the most influential figures operating in the UK in the 1980s &90s. She created a new type of decorative abstraction within the UK that dismantled the hierarchy of fine art over craft. In doing so she raised questions about the validity of the modernist conventions and reclaimed the position of women within the history of painting. Lee's highly ornate large-scale canvases are heavily layered with skeins of paints in wave-like forms creating optical illusions. Her sources were both Western with Bridget Riley and the writings of Jacques Derrida being hugely influential and Asian with calligraphic abstraction underpinning her entire practice."-- Publisher's website viewed June 8 2023.
