La casa, intimidad y nuevos usos del espacio doméstico

El estudio de la casa desde puntos de vista tan diversos como aspectos materiales y formales, soluciones habitacionales, tipología, así como elementos que se mueven en el ámbito de lo ideológico, simbólico o emocional es el propósito de esta obra colectiva. Este conjunto de investigaciones ofrece una mirada poliédrica que abarca la complejidad del fenómeno de la vivienda en contextos diversos. El marco cronológico y geográfico está muy bien definido, abarcando desde el siglo XVIII hasta el XX, y centrado en el ámbito español. Todos los trabajos recogidos en esta publicación muestran que la vivienda es un ente vivo, por su naturaleza social y cultural, que experimenta un constante cambio y evolución. La casa va adaptándose a muy diversos factores culturales que influyen en los nuevos usos del espacio doméstico.

The Cappadocian Mothers

The Cappadocian Mothers

The Cappadocian Fathers had great influence on the church of the fourth century, having brought their passion for Christ and theological expertise to life in their ministry. Their work was not devoid of influence, including that of their immediate family members. Within their writings we uncover the lives of seven women, the Cappadocian Mothers, who may have had more influence on the theology of the church than previously believed. As the Cappadocians wrestle with the Christianization of the concept of deification, we find the women in their lives becoming models for their theological understanding. The lives of the women become points of intersection in the kenosis-theosis parabola. Not only are the Cappadocian Mothers uncovered in the texts, but they become models of an optimistic theology of restoration for all of humanity without constraint of gender.

Black and Blue

  • Categories: Art

Audacious and genre-defying, Black and Blue is steeped in melancholy, in the feeling of being blue, or, rather, black and blue, with all the literality of bruised flesh. Roland Barthes and Marcel Proust are inspirations for and subjects of Carol Mavor's exquisite, image-filled rumination on efforts to capture fleeting moments and to comprehend the incomprehensible. At the book's heart are one book and three films—Roland Barthes's Camera Lucida, Chris Marker's La Jetée and Sans soleil, and Marguerite Duras's and Alain Resnais's Hiroshima mon amour—postwar French works that register disturbing truths about loss and regret, and violence and history, through aesthetic refinement. Personal recollections punctuate Mavor's dazzling interpretations of these and many other works of art and criticism. Childhood memories become Proust's "small-scale contrivances," tiny sensations that open onto panoramas. Mavor's mother lost her memory to Alzheimer's, and Black and Blue is framed by the author's memories of her mother and effort to understand what it means to not be recognized by one to whom you were once so known.

Research Handbook on Climate Governance

The 2009 United Nations climate conference in Copenhagen is often represented as a watershed in global climate politics, when the diplomatic efforts to negotiate a successor agreement to the Kyoto Protocol failed and was replaced by a fragmented and decentralized climate governance order. In the post-Copenhagen landscape the top-down universal approach to climate governance has gradually given way to a more complex, hybrid and dispersed political landscape involving multiple actors, arenas and sites. The Handbook contains contributions from more than 50 internationally leading scholars and explores the latest trends and theoretical developments of the climate governance scholarship.

1 and 2 Timothy

Pastor John MacArthur will take you through the two short letters to Timothy, passage by passage, so that you can better understand Paul's instructions to church leaders and the cultural context that makes these letters so relevant today.
