Explores the writer's enduring literary and political legacy.The veteran contributors to this volume take as their central drama, and their essential task for analysis, the enduring literary and political legacy of Israel Prize laureate Amos Oz (1939–2019). Born a decade prior to the establishment of the state of Israel, in what was then Palestine under British rule, Oz's life spanned the country's entire history, and both his fiction and nonfiction restlessly probe and illuminate its fraught conflicts, contradictions, and ambivalences. Throughout his career, Oz grappled frankly with the often-painful realities of Israeli life while also celebrating the ebullience of the Israeli spirit, and his sophisticated understanding of the sociopolitical turmoil of his society was always accompanied by intensely lyrical language and deep penetrations into the vulnerabilities of the human psyche. The volume's twenty contributors bring an exciting diversity of concerns and perspectives to Oz's most celebrated novels (including his powerfully resonant final novel, Judas) as well as to overlooked facets of his oeuvre, illuminating the breathtaking scope of his literary legacy. Together, they offer gripping analyses of his urgent and profoundly universal works about political and romantic dreamers whose heartfelt struggles with both their own human frailties and those of the state ultimately resonate far beyond Israel itself.

Inside the life of Amos Alonzo Stagg, a man who not only witnessed great change, but was responsible for much of it in college football.The arc of Amos Alonzo Stagg's life spanned the presidencies of Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. His career flourished on the Chicago Midway and found an encore on California's Pacific coast and in Pennsylvania's Susquehanna Valley. Stagg pioneered use of the tackling dummy, the huddle, the forward pass, the shift, the man-in-motion, the quick kick and the short punt. He developed the raw talent of young men with little or no athletic background long before the age of scholarship athletes, and his championship teams at the University of Chicago established the school's national reputation before it became famous for producing Nobel laureates. He helped shape the modern Olympic Games, and the coaching tree he nurtured continues to bear fruit in football programs across the country. Author Jennifer Taylor Hall traces the remarkable life of the Grand Old Man of Football.
A key text in the study of the minor prophets, this volume by distinguished academic William Rainey Harper offers a comprehensive look at the pre-prophetic movement, and in-depth analysis of meaning and literary form in these prophetic works.
Amos Alonzo Stagg (1862-1965) grew up one of eight children in a poor New Jersey family, graduated high school at 21 and worked his way through Yale. His goal was to become a Presbyterian minister, but he dropped out of Yale Divinity School because he felt he could have more influence on young men through coaching. He was hired as the first football coach at University of Chicago after its founding in 1892. Under Stagg's leadership, Chicago emerged as one of the nation's most formidable football teams during the early 20th century, winning seven Big Ten championships and two national championships. After Chicago forced him to retire at 70, Stagg found another coaching position at College of the Pacific, where he was forced to retire at 84. He found another job and never fully retired from coaching until he was 98. His marriage to his wife Stella--his de facto assistant coach--lasted almost 70 years. Sports Illustrated wrote of him, "If any single individual can be said to have created today's game, Stagg is the man. He either invented outright or pioneered every aspect of the modern game from…the huddle, shift and tackling dummy to such refinements as the T-formation strategy." This biography tells the story of his life and many innovations, which made him one of the great pioneers of college football.

William Amos our immigrant ancestor, was born in England abt 1690 and died in 1759 in Baltimore County, MD, in that portion which later became Harford County in 1773. He and his wife were buried on the family homestead but when the property (later called Mt Soma) went out of the possession of his descendants, their remains were moved to the Fallston cemetery at the Friends Meeting House. He was not a Quaker but his son William was. William Amos, Sr. was laid to rest beside his son's grave and a stone properly acquired at that time was engraved "William Amos of England. Died 1759." Of his wife we know only that her name was Ann, shown by the register of births of their children and by the mention in his Will, showing that she outlived him. An unmarked crude stone supposedly marks her grave at Fallston.This interesting surname, found as Amos and Amoss, is of French or Biblical origin. The Amos surname has two possible sources, each with its own distinct history and derivation. First, it may be derived from the Old French given name or nickname "Amis" (the oblique case being "Ami"), Friend, from the Latin "amicus", itself a derivative of "amare", to love. The word "amicus" was used in the Late Latin as a name for the lower classes, especially slaves. The name was introduced into England by followers of William the Conqueror after the Norman Invasion of 1066, and the first recordings of the surname is from this source. The second source is from the given name "Amos", which is derived from the Hebrew "Amos", "Borne (by God)". This was the name of a prophet of the 8th Century B.C., whose oracles are recorded in the Book of Amosfrom the Old Testament. However, Amos is not found among non-Jews before the Reformation in the 16th Century, and so the English surname is unlikely to be derived from it, except in individual cases. Recordings from London Church Registers include: the christening of Charles, son of Thomas Amos, on December 10th 1659, at St. Benet's, Paul's Wharf, and thechristening of George, son of George and Mary Amoss, on July 23rd 1721, at St. Olave's, Southwark. A Coat of Arms granted to the family is described thus: Potent counterpoint gules (red) and argent (silver) a chevron or (gold); the Crest being a square collegiate cap sable (black). The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Robert Amis, which was dated 1221, in the "Abbey of Ely Records", Suffolk, during the reign of King Henry 111, known as "The Frenchman", 1216 - 1272. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.Source: surnamedb.com/Surname/Amoshttp: //www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=amos&GSfn=william+&GSby=1690&GSbyrel=in&GSdyrel=all&GSob=n&GRid=18958800&df=all&
