Vanguard follows their hit Frazetta:The Definitive Reference with Jeffrey Jones: The Definitive Reference. Legendary artist Frank Frazetta once called Hugo Award and World Fantasy Award winner Jones "the great living painter." Jones and Frazetta were the top two heroic fantasy book cover artists of the 1960's and '70's. As well as sci-fi and fantasy, Jones famously contributed to 1972-75 issues of National Lampoon with the innovative comics feature "Idyl," and was a member of The Studio in New York City with contemporaries, Barry Windsor-Smith, Bernie Wrightson, and Michael Wm, Kaluta. The Studio became the subject of a landmark book from Dragon's Dream in 1979. By the '80s Jones relocated to the Woodstock area to pursue Fine Art. This is not an art monograph or biography but is a profusely illustrated reference book, gathering together the most detailed information on every known, first-publication image by Jones from magazines, books, comics, postcards, and every other artifact one can imagine -- the absolute completists' guide to Jeffrey Jones!

Japan’s Nationalist Right in the Internet Age
Japan’s nationalist right have used the internet to organize offline activism in increasingly visible ways.Hall investigates the role of internet-mediated activism in Japan’s ongoing historical and territorial disputes. He explores the emergence of two right-wing activist organizations, Nihon Bunka Channel Sakura and Ganbare Nippon, which have played a significant role in pressure campaigns against Japanese media outlets, campaigns to influence historical memorials, and campaigns to assert Japan’s territorial claim to the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands. Taking a multi-disciplinary approach, he analyses how activists maintained cohesion, raised funds, held protests that regularly drew hundreds to thousands of participants, and used fishing boats to land activists on disputed islands. Detailing events that took place between 2004 and 2020, he demonstrates how skilled social actors built cohesive grassroots protest organizations through the creation of shared meaning for their organization and its supporters.A valuable read both for scholars seeking insight into the dynamics surrounding Japan’s history disputes and territorial issues, as well as those seeking to compare Japanese right-wing internet activism with its counterparts elsewhere.

Leo Lyons was an essential member of the group romanticized as the founding fathers of the National Football League. As the owner of the Rochester Jeffersons, one of the most successful semi-pro teams in the country, he attended the league's organizational meeting in Canton, Ohio, along with George Halas, Jim Thorpe, Carl Storck, Ralph Hay and a handful of other visionaries. This book tells the story of Lyons' participation in many of the league's important historical moments as well as the many concepts he brought to the game. A pioneer in the integration of football. Lyons hired Henry McDonald, the fourth known black professional player, in 1912. Lyons' innovative "Jeffs" logo introduced in 1915 was the first used by a professional football team. He conceptualized football trading cards as a way of promoting professional football a year later. He even collaborated with representatives from the Wilson Sporting Goods Company to transform the ball from its melon shape into the one fans recognize today. This meticulously researched biography presents Lyons' struggles to keep his team afloat in the turbulent early days of the NFL, along with his encounters with such legendary figures as Walter Camp, Jim Thorpe, Curly Lambeau, George Halas, Joe Carr, Red Grange, Art Rooney, Pete Rozelle and many more. His involvement with underground figures as he sought to sign the famous Grange for his Rochester Jeffersons is presented in fine detail in this first biography of the NFL founding father.

The Brother of Jesus and the Lost Teachings of Christianity

The Brother of Jesus and the Lost Teachings of Christianity

Jeffrey J. Bütz

Inner Traditions Bear and Company
2005
pokkari
Reveals the true role of James, the brother of Jesus, in early Christianity • Uses evidence from the canonical Gospels, apocryphal texts, and the writings of the Church Fathers to reveal the teachings of Jesus as transmitted to his chosen successor: James • Demonstrates how the core message in the teachings of Jesus is an expansion not a repudiation of the Jewish religion • Shows how James can serve as a bridge between Christianity, Judaism, and Islam James has been a subject of controversy since the founding of the Church. Evidence that Jesus had siblings contradicts Church dogma on the virgin birth, and James is also a symbol of Christian teachings that have been obscured. While Peter is traditionally thought of as the leader of the apostles and the “rock” on which Jesus built his church, Jeffrey Bütz shows that it was James who led the disciples after the crucifixion. It was James, not Peter, who guided them through the Church's first major theological crisis--Paul's interpretation of the teachings of Jesus. Using the canonical Gospels, writings of the Church Fathers, and apocryphal texts, Bütz argues that James is the most overlooked figure in the history of the Church. He shows how the core teachings of Jesus are firmly rooted in Hebraic tradition; reveals the bitter battles between James and Paul for ideological supremacy in the early Church; and explains how Paul's interpretations, which became the foundation of the Church, are in many ways its betrayal. Bütz reveals a picture of Christianity and the true meaning of Christ's message that are sometimes at odds with established Christian doctrine and concludes that James can serve as a desperately needed missing link between Christianity, Judaism, and Islam to heal the wounds of centuries of enmity.
When We Need Pictures of Jesus

When We Need Pictures of Jesus

Jeffrey J Meyers

Athanasius Press

Does any picture of Jesus violate the Second Commandment?The answer is, "No." That's what Pastor Jeffrey J. Meyers contends in response to Peter Barnes's booklet, "Seeing Jesus: The Case Against Pictures of Our Lord Jesus Christ."Any attempt to mediate the divine presence through an image is, indeed, a violation of the Second Commandment, but in this book Meyers lays out a biblical and theological argument for a limited use of pictures of Jesus.Specifically, Meyers argues the historical Christ, if shown within a historical setting as detailed in Scriptures, does not violate the Second Commandment and may be of great value, both educationally and artistically.Beyond the question of when we may use or enjoy pictures of Jesus, Meyers' book also sketches out a theology of art and the Christian imagination.The "Answers in an Hour" series is an ongoing collection of short and easily digestible books written with the inquirer in mind. These little books provide brief studies of various topics of interest to Christians who seek instruction that is grounded in biblical theology.
The Jewish Roots of Christianity

The Jewish Roots of Christianity

Jeffrey J Harrison

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2018
pokkari
Christianity is Jewish? The rediscovery of the Jewish roots of Christianity raises lots of questions: Why were these roots forgotten for so long? And how do they affect us today? Do Gentile Christians need to obey the Jewish Law? What about Messianic Jews? Does God have a plan for Gentile Christians? And what about modern Israel? To answer these questions, we need to dive back into history to find out what happened: how Christianity was separated from so many of its Jewish roots, why Christians persecuted the Jewish people, and how this changed the Church and the way it understood its basic doctrines. Then we'll be ready to understand how God is changing hearts, leading so many to repent of these actions in the past, and how he is restoring Christianity's Jewish roots again.In this seminar, now in book form, you will learn a different kind of Church history, starting with God's plan for Jews and Gentiles in the body of Messiah, then learning how the Church turned away from and rejected that plan, and finally how God is now reconnecting the Church to its Jewish roots. This is itself a fulfillment of prophecy. And there is much more yet to come. The restoration of Christianity to its Jewish roots has only just begun
The Theology of John Donne

The Theology of John Donne

Jeffrey Johnson

D.S. Brewer
1999
pokkari
John Donne discussed as an original religious thinker, drawing on his extant sermons for evidence of his personal theology. John Donne is here treated as an original religious thinker; the evidence for the distinguishing features of his theology is drawn primarily from his extant sermons studied in context, beginning with an exploration of what is forDonne the fundamental belief for regulating Christian faith and practice, the doctrine of the Trinity. Building on this theological groundwork, Johnson goes on to examine such topics as Donne's understanding of common prayer; thepre-eminence of sight and spectacle, in terms of religious self-fashioning and the iconoclastic controversy; the doctrine of repentance, in conjunction with Donne's own sense of clerical calling; and the doctrine of grace, including Donne's views regarding the controversy over the Lord's Supper. JEFFREY JOHNSON is Professor of English at Northern Illinois University.
