Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
At the heart of American studies is the idea of America itself. Here, Buck looks at the religious significance of America by examining those religions that have attached some kind of spiritual meaning to America. The author explores how American Protestantism-and nine minority faiths-have projected America into the mainstream of world history by defining-and by redefining-America's world role. Surveying the religious myths and visions of America of ten religions, Buck shows how minority faiths have redefined America's sense of national purpose. This book invites serious reflection on what it means to be an American, particularly from a religious perspective.Religious myths of America are thought-orienting narratives that serve as vehicles of spiritual and social truths about the United States itself. Religious visions of America are action-oriented agendas that articulate the goals to which America should aspire and the role it should play in the community of nations. Buck examines the distinctive perspectives held by ten religious traditions that inform and expand on the notion of America, and its place in the world. He covers Native American, Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Mormon, Christian Identity, Black Muslim, Islamic, Buddhist, and Baha'i beliefs and invites serious reflection on what it means to be an American, particularly from a religious perspective.

Paradise and Paradigm
Key Symbols in Persian Christianity and the Baha'i Faith
AvChristopher Buck
Häftad, Engelska, 1999
423 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Comparing paradise imagery in two Persian religions, early Syriac Christianity and the Baha'i Faith, this work contributes to religious studies methodology by introducing "symbolic paradigm analysis."In a novel approach that the author terms "symbolic paradigm analysis," Paradise and Paradigm offers a "theoretically modular" systematic comparison of two "Persian" religions: early Syriac Christianity as the foundation of the East Syrian "Church of the East" (the Nestorian Church of Persia) and the Baha'i Faith, a new world religion. The author compares the hymns of the greatest poet of early Christianity, Saint Ephrem the Syrian, and the richly imagistic writings of the founder of the Baha'i religion, Baha'u'llah. The book employs an original analytic technique in the creation of "symbolic profiles" constructed on Ninian Smart's dimensional model of religion. As Buck skillfully demonstrates, formal similarities between any two religions are best comprehended in terms of paradigmatic differences, which nuance all parallels through a process of symbolic transformation. Buck also shows the communal reflexivity of paradise imagery in representing the ideal faith-community in both traditions.

The Hidden Arcana Tarot reveals eight long-lost Arcana cards with mythic resonance to powerfully guide the interpretation of the traditional Major and Minor Arcana.The deck contains 78 traditional Tarot cards and 8 Hidden Arcana cards. The newly rediscovered Arcana include the Adeptus, who represents the consultee on their journey; the Spiritrix, who determines how the reader may be affecting the reading; and the Almuten Figuris, the guide and protector on the path. The five castle cards show the elemental, archetypal forces at play. Infused with ancient symbolism and mythic imagery, these beautifully illustrated cards offer fresh perspectives on life’s journey, meaning, and future twists and turns—and on Tarot reading itself.The guidebook by studied and intuitive Tarot reader Liane Buck details the micro- and macrocosmic meaning of each card, gives methods of reading, and shows how the Tarot’s evolution was influenced by the Mother Goddess as the weaver of the destinies, ancient symbols, and myths. The Hidden Arcana Tarot is an invitation to journey through these tales to reflect on transformation and to find one’s place in the universe’s intricate tapestry.
