Axis Diplomats in American Custody

Axis Diplomats in American Custody

Landon Alfriend Dunn; Timothy J. Ryan

McFarland Co Inc
2016
pokkari
After Pearl Harbor, German, Italian and Japanese diplomats, along with their staffs and families, were relocated to two lavish but isolated resorts in Appalachia, where the State Department insisted they be treated as distinguished guests. As the war progressed, other Axis envoys were similarly detained. (The Japanese ambassador to Germany was captured by U.S. soldiers in Europe and held in a small hotel in rural Pennsylvania, while the War Department argued for treating him as a war criminal and the local population decried his luxurious accommodations.) Informants were recruited, attempts at espionage and escape were foiled, diplomats complained and squabbled endlessly, babies were born and townspeople made threats, while newspapers published outlandish exposes of wild parties. Based on government documents, the recollections of detainees and hotel staff and contemporary newspaper accounts, this book is the first to focus on the day-to-day lives of the nearly 1,000 detainees during their six-month confinement.

In the Face of Death

In the Face of Death

Pickwick Publications
2019
pokkari
"My theological work was always only a superstructure placed upon the experiences and sufferings of my life . . ." --Helmut ThielickeThielicke's story is one of extraordinary circumstances. Especially as a young man, living through Germany's darkest hour, he was time and again put on the brink of death by fatal sickness, Nazi oppression, and war. These experiences left an indelible mark on his worldview.In this thoroughly researched study, Fabian F. Grassl takes a fresh and original look at Thielicke's turbulent life through the specific lens of suffering and death. He paints an intimate portrait of a boundary rider whose theology uniquely developed in the face of death.As a result, new light is cast on one of the outstanding theologians, ethicists, and preachers of the twentieth century. The reader is invited to explore a world of thought decidedly shaped by the "eschatological existence" of an intriguing personality; a flawed human being like the rest of us yet endowed with a fascinating theological prowess, taking his stand amongst Germany's major historical upheavals of the last centenary.

""My theological work was always only a superstructure placed upon the experiences and sufferings of my life . . ."" --Helmut Thielicke Thielicke's story is one of extraordinary circumstances. Especially as a young man, living through Germany's darkest hour, he was time and again put on the brink of death by fatal sickness, Nazi oppression, and war. These experiences left an indelible mark on his worldview. In this thoroughly researched study, Fabian F. Grassl takes a fresh and original look at Thielicke's turbulent life through the specific lens of suffering and death. He paints an intimate portrait of a boundary rider whose theology uniquely developed in the face of death. As a result, new light is cast on one of the outstanding theologians, ethicists, and preachers of the twentieth century. The reader is invited to explore a world of thought decidedly shaped by the ""eschatological existence"" of an intriguing personality; a flawed human being like the rest of us yet endowed with a fascinating theological prowess, taking his stand amongst Germany's major historical upheavals of the last centenary. ""In this exhaustively researched and carefully developed study Fabian Grassl uncovers the experiential roots of Helmut Thielicke's theology. In particular, Thielicke's experience of life-threatening illness as a young man and his constant encounters with death during the years of Nazi rule left an indelible mark on the shape of both his theology and his preaching. Grassl examines these influences in detail, offering an appreciative but also critical assessment of a theology marked deeply by the experience of suffering and death. Both those who have a particular interest in Thielicke's work and those who want to think about the strengths and weaknesses of a theology shaped so strongly by experience will profit from Grassl's excellent work."" --Gilbert C. Meilaender, Senior Research Professor at Valparaiso University and the Paul Ramsey Fellow at the Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Culture ""In the middle decades of the last century Helmut Thielicke was likely the most quoted German-Lutheran theologian in North-American Protestant churches, more so than Bonhoeffer or any of the other 'big names.' Translations of Thielicke's best-selling sermons and other writings were regular fare for many American clergy and laity, while his academic work in systematic theology and ethics were routinely studied by U.S. seminarians and graduate students. Dr. Grassl here unveils in a masterful way those life experiences of Thielicke that had a profound impact on his thinking, preaching, and pastoral care. Dr. Grassl not only provides insights into Thielicke's biography--frequently on the basis of previously unexplored archival material--but he also helps the reader to understand more clearly the principal themes in Thielicke's complex theology. This is now the best introduction in English to this important theologian's life and work."" --Matthew L. Becker, Professor of Theology, Valparaiso University ""Theologian, ethicist, and preacher Helmut Thielicke lived in death's shadow from an illness in his youth that nearly claimed his life to his experiences ministering to those who lost loved ones in World War II. Thielicke's theology, especially his eschatology, bears the indelible imprint of his own biography. Grassl carefully examines both Thielicke's life and his theology in the context of his times. His research is rich with illuminating insights for those who seek to understand one of the most significant theologians of the last century."" --John T. Pless, Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions; Director of Field Education, Concordia Theological Seminary ""After a period of relative neglect, Helmut Thielicke and his theological legacy are receiving renewed attention. With its well-researched and closely argued account of the formative interaction between Thielicke's personal life and the central themes of this theology, Grassl's

Like a Child

Like a Child

Rev. Timothy J. Mooney

SkyLight Paths Publishing,US
2014
nidottu
By breaking free from our misperceptions about what it means to be an adult, we can reshape our world and become harbingers of grace."In our desire to grow up, mature, become adults, we become enamored with who we are supposed to be. When we have finally 'grown up' we realize much of who we really are has been left behind or buried under various masks and roles we play. But the knowledge of who we truly are never leaves us. To reclaim our selfhood, we must grow up again and consciously embrace all that it means to be childlike." from Chapter 12, "It Takes a Long Time to Become Young"By restoring the childlike ways of humility, trust, awe, wonder, playfulness and more, we can recover a fuller picture of what it means to be human. This unique spiritual resource explores what Jesus may have meant when he said, "Unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." It addresses our modern misperceptions regarding the nature of maturity and the common coping mechanisms distrust, guardedness, insecurity, judgmental thinking we acquire, and feel we require, in adulthood.Along with the wisdom of ancient and modern spiritual luminaries, this book provides over twenty-five spiritual practices to help us cultivate the childlike ways of attention, self-awareness, joy and resilience in our inner lives as well as in our relationships with others."

Common Prayer for Children and Families

Church Publishing Inc
2020

Whimsical, simple illustrations and prayers drawn from Episcopal prayer resourcesCommon Prayer for Children and Families is a collection of prayers and liturgies written for kids and the adults or communities who pray with them. Whimsically illustrated with pen and ink, this book contains prayers for morning, midday, and evening; prayers throughout the Church year; and prayers for all sorts of occasions. At the heart of this book is the belief that prayer shapes our lives and should be accessible and meaningful for children. The prayers in this book are called “common” for a variety of reasons; like the Book of Common Prayer, it seeks to provide a language, form, and theology that binds Episcopalians in shared prayer. In addition, prayers reflect themes with which children are commonly familiar, like home, school, and camps. Most of all, these prayers are held in common—always done within God’s holy community that includes family and friends, the living and the dead, saints and sinners, angels, archangels, and the company of heaven.Also available in Spanish.

Así como nuestros padres y abuelos tienen sus libros de oraciones que pasaron de generación en generación, este libro pretende ser el libro de oraciones en español de la generación más joven de la iglesia. Oración Común para Niños y Familias es una colección de oraciones y liturgias escritas para niños y para los adultos o comunidades que oran con ellos. Imaginativamente ilustrado a plumilla, este libro contiene oraciones para la mañana, el mediodía y la noche; oraciones para usar a través del año en la Iglesia y oraciones para todo tipo de ocasiones. En el centro de este libro está la creencia de que la oración forma nuestras vidas, por lo que debe ser accesible y significativa para los niños y niñas. Las oraciones en este libro son llamadas “comunes” por diversas razones. Como el Libro de Oración Común, este busca proveer lenguaje, forma y teología que reúne a los episcopales en la oración compartida. Además, las oraciones reflejan temas familiares para los niños como el hogar, la escuela y el campamento. Pero más que todo, estas oraciones son dichas en comunidad -siempre como parte de la comunidad santa de Dios que incluye a la familia y los amigos, los vivos y los fallecidos, los santos y los pecadores, los ángeles, arcángeles y la compañía de los cielos.

Mate Selection in China

Mate Selection in China

Sampson Lee Blair; Timothy J. Madigan; Fang Fang

Emerald Publishing Limited
2022
sidottu
In the context of dramatically changing contemporary patterns of mate selection in China, Mate Selection in China focuses upon both the causes and consequences the societal changes which have resulted in a considerable shift in the ways in which young adults go about finding a spouse. Tracking a period of change, from a long history of patriarchal families and arranged marriages, into an environment wherein individuals are relatively free to choose their intimate partners, Blair, Madison and Fang demonstrate and analyse how recent shifts in divorce, cohabitation, and pre-marital sex have altered young adults’ perceptions of marriage. Delving into demographic factors, such as the skewed sex ratio among young adults which have resulted in an overabundance of young males, cultural factors, such as increasingly individualistic forms of dating, and social and economic change which has resulted an increasingly materialistic middle-class, this book highlights that while traditional influence of parents in the selection of partners for their children has been overtaken, mate selection choices are not entirely made by the individuals themselves. Providing a comprehensive examination of mate selection within an ever-changing context, this book is a fascinating read for scholars interested in the impact of culture of family and marriage.

Legal and Ethical Aspects of Anaesthesia, Critical Care and Perioperative Medicine

Legal and Ethical Aspects of Anaesthesia, Critical Care and Perioperative Medicine

White Stuart M.; Baldwin Timothy J.

Greenwich Medical Media Ltd
2004
pokkari
Clinical decisions in modern medical practice are increasingly influenced by ethical and legal issues, but few doctors have been formally trained in medical law and ethics, and are unsure of potential sources of accessible information, which leaves them exposed to public criticism and the threat of legal action. Perioperative medicine and critical care are, by their very nature, subjects in which issues of autonomy, dignity, consent, confidentiality, medical research, life and death decision making, and the rationing of health care resources are ever-present. This book provides a straightforward but comprehensive one-stop reference and should be essential reading for all medical and allied health care professionals who encounter ethicolegal problems during their management of patients.

Collective Labour Law

Collective Labour Law

Gillian Morris; Timothy J Archer

Hart Publishing
2000
nidottu
Collective labour law has recently been transformed. The Employment Relations Act 1999 introduced radical reforms,including a procedure for compulsory recognition of trade unions; additional protection for employees dismissed while taking part in industrial action; and changes to industrial action notices and ballots. The use of 'workforce agreements' to determine the scope of workers' rights has been extended and the European Works Councils Directive has been implemented in domestic law. The Human Rights Act 1998 also has important implications for collective labour law. This new book provides a fully comprehensive text which covers all areas of collective labour law, statutory and common law. Relevant international provisions are also highlighted, together with the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights and other international bodies. Recent developments are examined in their thematic context, so enabling the reader to obtain an integrated analysis of areas such as statutory rights of representation and consultation, industrial action and union governance. Whilst this book is intended for specialist labour lawyers, its treatment of the subject will be accessible to those with no detailed prior knowledge.

The Problem with Banks

The Problem with Banks

Rethel Lena; Sinclair Timothy J.

Zed Books Ltd
2012
nidottu
Banks of all sorts are troubled institutions. The cost of public bail-outs associated with the subprime crisis in the United States alone may be as high as US$5 trillion. What is the problem with banks? Why do they seem to be at the centre of economic and financial turmoil down through the ages? In this provocative and timely book, Rethel and Sinclair seek answers to these questions, arguing that banks suffer from perennial problems, and that developments in the financial markets and government in recent decades have simply exacerbated these issues. The book examines banking activity in America, Asia and Europe, and how specific historical circumstances have transformed banks' behaviour and attitude to risk. While many see government as a constraint on banks, Sinclair and Rethel argue that what governments do in terms of regulation shapes banks and their motivations, as can be seen in the shortcomings of current reform proposals. Instead, more far-reaching, alternative ways of regulating and shaping banks are needed. A concise, essential overview of a pressing global issue.
