Описание: Written by one of the leading scholars of Japanese religion, Rage and Ravage is the third installment of a milestone project in our understanding of the mythico-ritual system of esoteric Buddhism—specifically the nature and roles of deities in the religious world of medieval Japan and beyond. Bernard Faure introduces readers to medieval Japanese religiosity and shows the centrality of the gods in religious discourse and ritual; in doing so he moves away from the usual textual, historical, and sociological approaches that constitute the ""method"" of current religious studies. Throughout, he engages theoretical insights draws from structuralism, post-structuralism, and Actor-Network Theory to retrieve the ""implicit pantheon"" (as opposed to the ""explicit orthodox pantheon"") of esoteric Japanese Buddhism (Mikky??).In volumes one and two, The Fluid Pantheon and Predators and Protectors, Faure argued against a polarity or dichotomy between buddhas and kami by emphasizing the existence of deities that did not belong to either category, and he rejected the retrospective notion of ""hybridity."" The present work makes a similar case about the reified distinction between gods and demons to show that, due to the fluid nature of the Japanese pantheon, these terms do not represent stable identities: gods can become demons, and demons are sometimes deified. Divine protectors were often former predators, and in some instances they retained their predatory features even after being converted. After emphasizing the demonic aspects of devas as ""gods or spirits of obstacles"" in the earlier volumes, Faure now focuses on the deva-like or ""divine"" aspects of deities that have been described as ""demonic."" Rage and Ravage and its companion volumes persuade readers that the gods constituted a central part of medieval Japanese religion and that the latter cannot be reduced to a simplistic confrontation, parallelism, or complementarity between some monolithic teachings known as ""Buddhism"" and ""Shinto."" Once these reductionist labels and categories are discarded, a new and fascinating religious landscape begins to unfold.
The Truckee River is central to the survival of humanity that has long clustered around its banks. Yet it has often been treated as no more than a utilitarian asset to be used and abused as the whims of the time suggested. This book traces that history from the degradation caused by mining, lumbering, sewage, and water diversions to the present-day effort to preserve and restore this precious resource.
Herein also is the tale of the mighty floods that have repeatedly swept through, and our continual efforts to contain them--from the ugly and insufficient floodwall-levee-dredging approach up to the Living River plan with its natural river with broad floodplains and levee setbacks featuring open spaces for beauty and recreation. And then, alas, the plan's diminishment due to two decades of federal dithering and rising costs.
Finally, there is a plea to do better by the river while there is still time.

Описание: With Three New Appendices. Few Jewish names in the history of Europe have attracted more fame, more conspiracy theories, rumors, and mystery than the name Rothschild. This biography, written by a leading Jewish historian, pulls no punches in telling the true story of the banking dynasty, once known as the "financiers of nations." Cutting through all the myths and exaggeration which have surrounded the Rothschilds, Five Men of Frankfort reveals how the four Rothschild sons spread throughout Europe-to London, Paris, Vienna, and Naples, to set up a banking network which inaugurated the system of moving money internationally through simultaneous deposits and withdrawals. British indebtedness to the Rothschilds for their help in defeating Napoleon was then exploited by getting the British government to persuade the other nations of Europe-including the Austrian, Prussian, and Russian governments-to start using the Rothschilds as bankers and as the providers of their national loans and debt. Although this book ends its narrative at the beginning of the nineteenth century, this new edition has three new appendices which reveal the full extent of the Rothschild business empire to the present day. These appendices reveal in an astonishing amount of detail how this Jewish family from Frankfort ended up loaning money to governments on five continents, and their role in modern-day financial transactions across the world. This book strips away the myths which surround the Rothschilds, and provides a sober assessment of why this banking house has become the foremost subject of conspiracy theories around the globe.

A new edition of Marcus Eli Ravage's cutting two essays on the hypocrisy of Christian anti-Semitism, written at a time when that sentiment was on the rise in America and Europe. Now with an extended afterword and appendices dealing with specific points raised by the author. The author, a prominent Jewish journalist, was angered by the tide of rising anti-Semitism in the early 20th century, pointed out that if people were looking for a "Jewish conspiracy" then they should stop talking about Communism or Capitalism, but face up to the fact that Christianity--and therefore the post-Roman Western Civilization--has a Jewish spiritual, historical, intellectual and even moral basis. "Our tribal customs have become the core of your moral code . . . A Jewish rebel-prophet is the central figure in your religious worship . . . Half your wars, great and little, are religious wars, fought over the interpretation of one thing or another in our teachings . . . We have imposed upon you an alien book and an alien faith which you cannot swallow or digest, which is at cross-purposes with your native spirit . . . Your religion, your education, your morals, your social, governmental and legal systems, are fundamentally of our making . . . You Christians do not seem to know where your religion came from, nor how, nor why." With an afterword by Professor H. E. James which investigates the author's claims and provides a full review of the Jewish origins of Christianity, post-Roman and modern Western liberal thought, and much more. A book which will shock Christians, Jews and atheists alike.
