Focusing on passages about women in the Bible and feminine imagery of God,The Women's Lectionaryreimagines the liturgical calendar of preaching for one year.

From well-known figures like Miriam and Mary to lesser-known women like Huldah and Sapphira to feminine metaphors, this comprehensive resource features more than one hundred commentary essays with an Old Testament and New Testament passage for each Sunday of the year and special holy days in the calendar.

Renegade Hero or Faux Rogue

Renegade Hero or Faux Rogue

Ashley M. Donnelly

McFarland Co Inc
2014
pokkari
This book explores the presence of the anti-hero in mainstream dramatic serial television. It offers critical examinations of Dexter, Sons of Anarchy, True Blood, Breaking Bad, and Boardwalk Empire. What purpose might such unusual protagonists serve in today's culture and what do their tales tell about U.S. political and economic issues from 2008 to 2012? The author discovers how the characters that seem initially so different prove to be strong examplars of established forms of power, such as white patriarchy and late capitalist interests. The study finds that even when the characters are groundbreaking fictional figures, they are all eventually written into submission by the narratives of their series, echoing the same tales of fictitious heroism recycled in American television narratives for decades. New trends in television narratives are discussed--with the expectation that perhaps future dramas will free audiences from oppressive narratives rather than continue to normalize them.

dark // thing is a multifaceted work that explores the darkness/otherness by which the world sees Black people. Ashley M. Jones stares directly into the face of the racism that allows people to be seen as dark things, as objects that can be killed/enslaved/oppressed/devalued. This work, full as it is of slashes of all kinds, ultimately separates darkness from thingness, affirming and celebrating humanity.
God, Hierarchy, and Power

God, Hierarchy, and Power

Ashley M. Purpura

Fordham University Press
2017
sidottu
In the current age where democratic and egalitarian ideals have preeminence, Eastern Orthodox Christianity, among other hierarchically organized religious traditions, faces the challenging questions: “Why is hierarchy maintained as the model of organizing the church, and what are the theological justifications for its persistence?” These questions are especially significant for historically and contemporarily understanding how Orthodox Christians negotiate their spiritual ideals with the challenges of their social and ecclesiastical realities. To critically address these questions, this book offers four case studies of historically disparate Byzantine theologians from the sixth to the fourteenth-centuries—Dionysius the Areopagite, Maximus the Confessor, Niketas Stethatos, and Nicholas Cabasilas—who significantly reflect on the relationship between spiritual authority, power, and hierarchy in theoretical, liturgical, and practical contexts. Although Dionysius the Areopagite has been the subject of much scholarly interest in recent years, the applied theological legacy of his development of “hierarchy” in the Christian East has not before been explored. Relying on a common Dionysian heritage, these Byzantine authors are brought into a common dialogue to reveal a tradition of constructing authentic ecclesiastical hierarchy as foremost that which communicates divinity.

The proximal relationships between two opposing fields and their relative divisions are scarcely considered in the sciences. The opposition is rife, whether between qualitative and quantitative methods of inquiry, or fields - these are aspects of the sciences that are limited in their investigations. Equal too is the dividing factor between theoretical, and statistical frameworks despite their mutual significance in scientific research. Such is life as the cat and bird analogy rings true. This has been the resolute case for The Elite Research Method.An arduous journey compiled over two years against internal and external opposition, there is merit in The Elite Research Method not wanting to be uncovered. Simplified in its narration, a true methodological framework applied in the real-world for its transitional use whether in research or projects alike, regardless the scale. For scale snd stance is equally addressed. A direct excerpt from a doctoral dissertation with each segment preempting the narration with its own foresight on its underlying premise as The Elite Research Method unfolds. Unveiled is a step by step methodological framework revealed for the very first time on how to conduct elite research in the real-world.
