Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 558

Book Description
It is shortly after the great flood, and early in the history of mankind. It is a time of much discovery and invention. Man is becoming populace and stretching out over the earth. All men speak the same language, but they are showing signs of diversity. Suddenly an idea arises among men to cease from diversifying and from spreading apart and for all men to come together in unity and to build as one mind and one nation. And as man sets on his endeavor to come together as one people in one land, they continue to discover and to invent. Yet it is written in the Bible that there is no new thing under the sun. Are we ever discovering, or do we only rediscover? And is there a limit to how much we are allowed to rediscover? History tells us that indeed there is.

British Children's Literature and Material Culture

British Children's Literature and Material Culture PDF Author: Jane Suzanne Carroll
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350201790
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 208

Book Description
The 'golden age' of children's literature in the late 19th and early 20th century coincided with a boom in the production and trade of commodities. The first book-length study to situate children's literature within the consumer culture of this period, British Children's Literature and Material Culture explores the intersection of children's books, consumerism and the representation of commodities within British children's literature. In tracing the role of objects in key texts from the turn of the century, Jane Suzanne Carroll uncovers the connections between these fictional objects and the real objects that child consumers bought, used, cherished, broke, and threw away. Beginning with the Great Exhibition of 1851, this book takes stock of the changing attitudes towards consumer culture – a movement from celebration to suspicion – to demonstrate that children's literature was a key consumer product, one that influenced young people's views of and relationships with other kinds of commodities. Drawing on a wide spectrum of well-known and less familiar texts from Britain, this book examines works from Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There and E. Nesbit's Five Children & It to Christina Rossetti's Speaking Likenesses and Mary Louisa Molesworth's The Cuckoo Clock. Placing children's fiction alongside historical documents, shop catalogues, lost property records, and advertisements, Carroll provides fresh critical insight into children's relationships with material culture and reveals that even the most fantastic texts had roots in the ordinary, everyday things.

Book Description
Pastor William M. Templeton has accomplished what I wish many other pastors would do-that is, for the sake of his people and his readers, to grapple with the Bible. Understanding Genesis is a book full of insight not merely from the shelves of the library but also out of ministry and experience in walking with God. While this book may not have all the footnotes that professors might provide, it has insights that arise from walking among the people toward the City of God. Paige Patterson President Southwestern Baptist Theolgical Seminary Fort Worth, Texas The Book of Genesis is the "Book of Beginnings". William Templeton in his book, Understanding Genesis endeavors to present the historical facts, genealogies, and lives and actions of six great men of the faith in clear, applicable, and understandable terms. Arranged in a unique way around the "times" of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph, this book takes the reader through Genesis identifying the plans, purposes, and principles of God and relating them to modern man living in modern times. William Templeton has been pastoring churches for more than three decades. He is married to the former Bonita Arlene Irby. The Templetons have four grown children, seven grandchildren, and counting. William Templeton attended Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University from 1969 through 1972. He then transferred to what is now Liberty University where he majored in pastoral studies and theology. For thirty-eight years, Bill has been studying Scripture in an effort to bring the word of God to every person in a clear and understandable fashion.
