Shakespeare and religio mentis
Have you ever wondered why Cordelia has to die? Or how Alonso talks and walks about the isle while his body lies ‘full fathom five’ on the sea floor? Ever wondered why the monument to Shakespeare in the Church of the Holy Trinity in Stratford-upon-Avon names three pagans: Nestor, Socrates, and Virgil – king, philosopher, and poet? Or why Shakespeare is on Olympus, home of the Greek gods? This interdisciplinary study, the first to interpret the plays of Shakespeare in the light of the esoteric religious doctrines of the Corpus Hermeticum, holds answers to these and other puzzling questions.
Prospero's America
In Prospero’s America, Walter W. Woodward examines the transfer of alchemical culture to America by John Winthrop, Jr., one of English colonization’s early giants. Winthrop participated in a pan-European network of natural philosophers who believed alchemy could improve the human condition and hasten Christ’s Second Coming. Woodward demonstrates the influence of Winthrop and his philosophy on New England’s cultural formation: its settlement, economy, religious toleration, Indian relations, medical practice, witchcraft prosecution, and imperial diplomacy. Prospero’s America reconceptualizes the significance of early modern science in shaping New England hand in hand with Puritanism and politics.
Waiting in Obedience in Capernaum
“Waiting in Obedience in Capernaum” is the sixth book of “The New Way Series.” It is based on the first century manuscript “Acts of the Apostles” written by Luke. Capernaum used to be a wonderful place, but it has changed — or have their eyes just been opened? Life as they knew it was gone. Right had become wrong, and wrong had become right. We wait with these same characters introduced in the previous book as they deal with these questions: What do I do when my beliefs don’t fit society around me? Will I wait in obedience when my world is crumbling? Is my faith strong enough to carry me through when I’m definitely in the minority? The next book in The New Way Series will take us to Antioch, a city in Syria. Many followers of Jesus have relocated there and the characters, some of whom walked with Jesus as children, now must face adult questions regarding what they believe and how they will let it affect their lives.
