Copper Mines, Company Towns Indians, Mexicans, Mormons, Masons, Jews, Muslims, Gays, Wombs, Mcdonalds, and the March of Dimes: “Survival of the Fittest” in and Far Beyond the Deserts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Just as few natural species have withstood the test of ever-changing earth environments through time, relatively few human-created systems (e.g., companies, governments, religions, etc.) long survive their creation. What then is the secret of those that continue to defy these odds and what factors have led to the failure of others? This manuscript attempts to answer this question using the Phelps Dodge Corporation, its unions, its Native American and Mexican workforce, the Ajo Inter-tribal Community Council, the Mormon Church, The March of Dimes, and others as examples.</p> <p>-Dr. Larry R. Stucki, from the Preface</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,144円

The Mormons and the Theatre, or, the History of Theatricals in Utah【電子書籍】[ John S. Lindsay ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In rather sharp contrast to other Christian denominations, the Mormons believe in and are fond of dancing and the theatre. So much is this the case that Friday evening of each week during the amusement season is set apart by them in all the settlements throughout Mormondom for their dance night. Their dances are generally under the supervision of the presiding bishop and are invariably opened with prayer or invocation, and closed or dismissed in the same manner, with a brief return of thanks to the Almighty for the good time they have enjoyed. The theatre is so popular among the Mormon people, that in almost every town and settlement throughout their domains there is an amateur dramatic company. It is scarcely to be wondered at that Salt Lake has the enviable distinction of being the best show town of its population in the United States, and when we say that, we may as well say in the whole world. It is a well established fact that Salt Lake spends more money per capita in the theatre than any city in our country. Such a social condition among a strictly religious people is not little peculiar, and is due, largely, to the fact that Brigham Young was himself fond of the dance and also of the theatre. He could “shake a leg” with the best of them, and loved to lead the fair matrons and maidens of his flock forth into its giddy, bewildering mazes. Certain round dances, the waltz and polka, were always barred at dances Brigham Young attended, and only the old-fashioned quadrilles and cotillions and an occasional reel like Sir Roger de Coverly or the Money Musk were tolerated by the great Mormon leader</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

The Story of the Mormons from the Date of Their Origin to the Year 1901【電子書籍】[ William Alexander Linn ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>No chapter of American history has remained so long unwritten as that which tells the story of the Mormons. There are many books on the subject, histories written under the auspices of the Mormon church, which are hopelessly biased as well as incomplete; more trustworthy works which cover only certain periods; and books in the nature of "exposures" by former members of the church, which the Mormons attack as untruthful, and which rest, in the minds of the general reader, under a suspicion of personal bias. Mormonism, therefore, to-day suggests to most persons only one doctrineーpolygamyーand only one leaderーBrigham Young, who made his name familiar to the present generations. Joseph Smith, Jr., is known, where known at all, only in the most general way as the founder of the sect, while the real originator of the whole scheme for a new church and of its doctrines and government, Sidney Rigdon, is known to few persons even by name. The object of the present work is to present a consecutive history of the Mormons, from the day of their origin to the present writing, and as a secular, not as a religious, narrative. The search has been for facts, not for moral deductions, except as these present themselves in the course of the story. Since the usual weapon which the heads of the Mormon church use to meet anything unfavorable regarding their organization or leaders is a general denial, this narrative has been made to rest largely on Mormon sources of information. It has been possible to follow this plan a long way because many of the original Mormons left sketches that have been preserved. Thus we have Mother Smith's picture of her family and of the early days of the church; the Prophet's own account of the revelation to him of the golden plates, of his followers' early experiences, and of his own doings, almost day by day, to the date of his death, written with an egotist's appreciation of his own part in the play; other autobiographies, like Parley P. Pratt's and Lorenzo Snow's; and, finally, the periodicals which the church issued in Ohio, in Missouri, in Illinois, and in England, and the official reports of the discourses preached in Utah,ーall showing up, as in a mirror, the character of the persons who gave this Church of Latter Day Saints its being and its growth. In regard to no period of Mormon history is there such a lack of accurate information as concerning that which covers their moves to Ohio, thence to Missouri, thence to Illinois, and thence to Utah. Their own excuse for all these moves is covered by the one word "persecution" (meaning persecution on account of their religious belief), and so little has the non-Mormon world known about the subject that this explanation has scarcely been challenged. Much space is given to these early migrations, as in this way alone can a knowledge be acquired of the real character of the constituency built up by Smith in Ohio, and led by him from place to place until his death, and then to Utah by Brigham Young. Any study of the aims and objects of the Mormon leaders must rest on the Mormon Bible ("Book of Mormon") and on the "Doctrine and Covenants," the latter consisting principally of the "revelations" which directed the organization of the church and its secular movements. In these alone are spread out the original purpose of the migration to Missouri and the instructions of Smith to his followers regarding their assumed rights to the territory they were to occupy; and without a knowledge of these "revelations" no fair judgment can be formed of the justness of the objections of the people of Missouri and Illinois to their new neighbors. If the fraudulent character of the alleged revelation to Smith of golden plates can be established, the foundation of the whole church scheme crumbles. If Rigdon's connection with Smith in the preparation of the Bible by the use of the "Spaulding manuscript" can be proved, the fraud itself is established. Considerable of the evidence on this point herein brought together is presented at least in new shape, and an adequate sketch of Sidney Rigdon is given for the first time. The probable service of Joachim's "Everlasting Gospel," as suggesting the story of the revelation of the plates, has been hitherto overlooked</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

The City of the Mormons; or, Three Days at Nauvoo, in 1842【電子書籍】[ Henry Caswall ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Henry Caswall's 'The City of the Mormons; or, Three Days at Nauvoo, in 1842' is a significant text that provides a detailed account of the author's three-day visit to Nauvoo, the city founded by Joseph Smith, the founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Caswall's firsthand observations of the practices, beliefs, and daily life of the Mormons offer a captivating glimpse into a religious community that was both admired and feared during the 19th century. The book is written in a descriptive and narrative style, combining elements of travel writing and religious commentary to present a vivid picture of Nauvoo and its inhabitants. Caswall's keen eye for detail and his unbiased approach make this book a valuable historical document for scholars and enthusiasts of Mormon history. Henry Caswall, a British Anglican clergyman and travel writer, was known for his travels to various religious communities and his critical examination of their beliefs and practices. His background in theology and his interest in religious movements likely contributed to his decision to visit Nauvoo and document his experiences. Caswall's unique perspective as an outsider offers readers a balanced view of the Mormon community, shedding light on both its strengths and controversies. I highly recommend 'The City of the Mormons; or, Three Days at Nauvoo, in 1842' to readers interested in the history of Mormonism, religious studies, and 19th-century American religious movements. Caswall's informative and engaging narrative offers a fascinating look into a pivotal moment in Mormon history and provides valuable insights into the beliefs and practices of this influential religious group.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

Marianne Meets the Mormons Representations of Mormonism in Nineteenth-Century France【電子書籍】[ Heather Belnap ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In the nineteenth century, a fascination with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints made Mormons and Mormonism a common trope in French journalism, art, literature, politics, and popular culture. Heather Belnap, Corry Cropper, and Daryl Lee bring to light French representations of Mormonism from the 1830s to 1914, arguing that these portrayals often critiqued and parodied French society. Mormonism became a pretext for reconsidering issues such as gender, colonialism, the family, and church-state relations while providing artists and authors with a means for working through the possibilities of their own evolving national identity.</p> <p>Surprising and innovative, <em>Marianne Meets the Mormons</em> looks at how nineteenth-century French observers engaged with the idea of Mormonism in order to reframe their own cultural preoccupations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,132円

Expos? of Polygamy A Lady's Life Among the Mormons【電子書籍】[ Fanny Stenhouse ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>After the 1872 publication of *Expos?,*Fanny Stenhouse became a celebrity in the cultural wars between Mormons and much of America. An English convert, she had grown disillusioned with the Mormon Church and polygamy, which her husband practiced before associating with a circle of dissident Utah intellectuals and merchants. Stenhouse’s critique of plural marriage, Brigham Young, and Mormonism was also a sympathetic look at Utah’s people and honest recounting of her life. She later created a new edition, titled <em>"Tell It All,"</em> which ensured her notoriety in Utah and popularity elsewhere but turned her thoughtful memoir into a more polemical, true expos? of Polygamy. Since 1874, it has stayed in print, in multiple, varying editions. The original book, meanwhile, is less known, though more readable. Tracing the literary history of Stenhouse’s important piece of Americana, Linda DeSimone rescues an important autobiographical and historical record from the baggage notoriety brought to it.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,985円

Growing an Ideology: How the Mormons Do It - Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), Ideology, Socialization Structure, Church Expansion, Religious Capital and Beliefs, Insurgencies【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. This thesis seeks to understand how ideology-based organizations grow, for understanding ideological promulgation is imperative to understanding conflicts arising from differing ideological principles. We assert that the philosophical framework that drives the ideology of an organization plays a secondary role in that group's expansion. Cultural socialization plays a much more dominant role in an ideology-based organization's growth or decline than the nature of the doctrine per se, or even adherence to the ideology. In other words, ideological organizations grow and contract based on this socialization framework, and not necessarily on the ideas they espouse. This stands in contrast to the notion that states can successfully wage "ideological" warfare-or fight for "hearts and minds" using a psychological, philosophical, or an idea-based approach alone. For missionaries of ideologies, it also means that churning out believers is difficult through preaching alone. A more effective approach is one that establishes an effective socialization program. We approach this study by examining growth in one of the world's most rapidly expanding ideology-based organizations: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). While the LDS is, at its core, a religious organization, it also stands as an ideology-based organization, providing prescriptive counsel to its members. The result is not only a religious organization, but a group which doctrinally espouses or prescribes specific economic, political, and moral behavior. While not all religious movements are ideological in nature, the all-encompassing character of the LDS serves as a prime example of a modern and successful ideological organization.</p> <p>CHAPTER I * INTRODUCTION * A.

Mormons and the Bible The Place of the Latter-day Saints in American Religion【電子書籍】[ Philip L. Barlow ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Philip L. Barlow offers an in-depth analysis of the approaches taken to the Bible by major Mormon leaders, from its beginnings to the present. He shows that Mormon attitudes toward the Bible comprise an extraordinary mix of conservative, liberal, and radical ingredients: an almost fundamentalist adherence to the King James Version co-exists with belief in the possibility of new revelation and surprising ideas about the limits of human language. Barlow's exploration takes important steps toward unraveling the mystery of this quintessential American religious phenomenon. This updated edition of <em>Mormons and the Bible</em> includes an extended bibliography and a new preface, casting Joseph Smith's mission into a new frame and treating evolutions in Mormonism's biblical usage in recent decades.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,880円

Unpopular Sovereignty Mormons and the Federal Management of Early Utah Territory【電子書籍】[ Brent M. Rogers ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Charles Redd Center Phi Alpha Theta Book Award for the Best Book on the American West<br /> 2018 Francis Armstrong Madsen Best Book Award from the Utah State Historical Society<br /> 2018 Best First Book Award from the Mormon History Association</p> <p>Newly created territories in antebellum America were designed to be extensions of national sovereignty and jurisdiction. Utah Territory, however, was a deeply contested space in which a cohesive settler groupーthe Mormonsーsought to establish their own “popular sovereignty,” raising the question of who possessed and could exercise governing, legal, social, and even cultural power in a newly acquired territory.</p> <p>In <em>Unpopular Sovereignty</em>, Brent M. Rogers invokes the case of popular sovereignty in Utah as an important contrast to the better-known slavery question in Kansas. Rogers examines the complex relationship between sovereignty and territory along three main lines of inquiry: the implementation of a republican form of government, the administration of Indian policy and Native American affairs, and gender and familial relationsーall of which played an important role in the national perception of the Mormons’ ability to self-govern. Utah’s status as a federal territory drew it into larger conversations about popular sovereignty and the expansion of federal power in the West. Ultimately, Rogers argues, managing sovereignty in Utah proved to have explosive and far-reaching consequences for the nation as a whole as it teetered on the brink of disunion and civil war.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,419円

The Leaders of the Mormons: The Lives and Legacies of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young【電子書籍】[ Charles River Editors ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
*Includes pictures of Smith, Young and important people and places in their lives.*Discusses their leadership of the Mormons, their religious views, and their controversial battles with state militias and federal authorities.*Includes a Bibliography of each man for further reading.*Includes a Table of Contents. “Our missionaries are going forth to different nations, and in Germany, Palestine, New Holland, the East Indies, and other places, the standard of truth has been erected: no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing, persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished and the great Jehovah shall say the work is done.” Joseph Smith"I know just as well what to teach this people and just what to say to them and what to do in order to bring them into the celestial kingdom...I have never yet preached a sermon and sent it out to the children of men, that they may not call Scripture. Let me have the privilege of correcting a sermon, and it is as good Scripture as they deserve. The people have the oracles of God continually." Brigham YoungAmong all the various figures in 19th century America who left controversial legacies, it is hard to find one as influential as Joseph Smith (1805-1844), the founder of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Mormonism, and the Latter Day Saint movement. Revered as a prophet on the level of Moses by some, reviled as a perpetrator of large-scale fraud by others, what everyone can agree on is that Joseph Smith founded a religious movement that played a crucial role in the settlement of the West, especially in Utah. Smiths dream of Zion would lead the way for the trials and the tribulations of the Mormons for the rest of the 19th century, including countless conflicts with local authorities and the U.S. government. Smith himself would be a casualty of the clashing, murdered by a mob in 1844 after being imprisoned in Carthage, Illinois near the settlement of Nauvoo, which Smith had painstakingly tried to create as a commune for his people.After Smiths death, it was Young who led Mormon pioneers westward in a journey that the Latter Day Saints often likened to the Exodus, and Young became popular as “American Moses”. At the same time, Young and his group were involved in a seemingly never ending list of controversies, both of their own making and the misconceptions of so many Americans who were unfamiliar with the religion. What can be said about Young is his plain-spoken demeanor of appearance and personality made his efforts to connect with the members of his church all the more authentic. He looked and acted like most Mormons, and despite the dressed up appearance he gave to dignitaries who met him, his common touch worked because he genuinely cared about his fellow Saints. No matter the controversies that raged in the territory of Utah about Mormon lieutenants harassing federal officials, or the rumors of Danite murders of non-Mormons and apostates, the people of Zion viewed him as their representative and the defender of their way of life. The Leaders of the Mormons profiles the extraordinary lives of both men, chronicling Smith's founding of the Church and Young's leadership of it in the wake of his death. Along the way it discusses the Book of Mormon and the religious beliefs espoused by both men. With pictures, bibliographies, and a Table of Contents, you will learn about Joseph Smith and Brigham Young like never before.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 400円

The Reed Smoot Hearings The Investigation of a Mormon Senator and the Transformation of an American Religion【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines the hearings that followed Mormon apostle Reed Smoot’s 1903 election to the US Senate and the subsequent protests and petitioning efforts from mainstream Christian ministries disputing Smoot’s right to serve as a senator. Exploring how religious and political institutions adapted and shapeshifted in response to larger societal and ecclesiastical trends, <em>The Reed Smoot Hearings</em> offers a broader exploration of secularism during the Progressive Era and puts the Smoot hearings in context with the ongoing debate about the constitutional definition of marriage.</p> <p>The work adds new insights into the role religion and the secular played in the shaping of US political institutions and national policies. Chapters also look at the history of anti-polygamy laws, the persistence of post-1890 plural marriage, the continuation of anti-Mormon sentiment, the intimacies and challenges of religious privatization, the dynamic of federal power on religious reform, and the more intimate role individuals played in effecting these institutional and national developments.</p> <p>The Smoot hearings stand as an important case study that highlights the paradoxical history of religious liberty in America and the principles of exclusion and coercion that history is predicated on. Framed within a liberal Protestant sensibility, these principles of secular progress mapped out the relationship of religion and the nation-state for the new modern century. <em>The Reed Smoot Hearings</em> will be of significant interest to students and scholars of Mormon, western, American, and religious history.</p> <p>Publication supported, in part, by Gonzaba Medical Group.</p> <p>Contributors: Gary James Bergera, John Brumbaugh, Kenneth L.

Book of Mormon Studies An Introduction and Guide【電子書籍】[ Daniel Becerra ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Where can you go to learn more about Book of Mormon studies? For those who do not regularly engage with scholarship, it’s hard to know how to begin.

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An inside look at the foundational sacred text of one of the world's youngest and fastest growing religions</strong></p> <p><em>The Book of Mormon</em> stands alongside the Bible as the keystone of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church/Mormonism). Translated by the prophet Joseph Smith from ancient writings inscribed on golden plates, the <em>Book of Mormon</em> is an account of people living in the Western Hemisphere in a timeline that parallels that of the Bible. It covers a thousand years of loss, discovery, war, peace, and spiritual principles that focus on the teachings of Jesus Christ, outlining a plan for salvation and the responsibilities we must assume to attain it.</p> <p><em>The Book of Mormon: Selections Annotated & Explained</em> explores this sacred epic that is cherished by more than twelve million members of the LDS church as the keystone of their faith. Probing the principal themes and historical foundation of this controversial and provocative narrative, Jana Riess focuses on key selections that offer insight into contemporary Mormon beliefs and scriptural emphases, such as the atonement of Christ, the nature of human freedom, the purpose of baptism, and the need for repentance from sin. She clarifies the religious, political, and historical events that take place in the ancient communities of the Book of Mormon and their underlying contemporary teachings that serve as the framework for spiritual practices that lie at the core of Mormon life.</p> <p>Now you can experience this foundational sacred text even if you have no previous knowledge of Mormonism. This SkyLight Illuminations edition presents the key teachings and essential concepts of the Mormon faith tradition with insightful yet unobtrusive commentary that helps to dispel many of the misconceptions that have surrounded the <em>Book of Mormon</em> since its publication in 1830.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,815円

Prince Malkijah ? The Missing Chapter of Book of Mormon History, Geography, and Prophecy Advanced Book of Mormon Studies【電子書籍】[ Arlin Ewald Nusbaum ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This title is not fiction but the true account of Prince Malkijah, or “Mulek” in The Holy Book of Mormon. Prince Malkijah was the only remaining heir of the Judean Empire through King Zedekiah, and God brought him to America to preserve the Royal Davidic Bloodline. In The Holy Book of Mormon, the Jaredites were a people whom God destroyed because they would not repent and turn to Him. Both their lands and promises were forfeited and given to the people of Prince Malkijah and the tribe of Judahーnot Nephiーnor the tribe of Joseph. The author clearly establishes that the family of Lehi (& tribe of Joseph) forfeited Book of Mormon lands by bringing wicked Laman & Lemuel (& Ishmael’s wicked sons and daughters). Most wars in the Book of Mormon resulted from the wicked they brought. The author makes the case that Sariah bears the title of “The most wicked person in the Book of Mormon” because she would not leave her wicked sons behind. The author establishes that the entire Book of Mormon narrative whitewashes this family dynamic, rewrites land prophecies, and promises to favor the tribe of Joseph and the Nephites when the truth is Jaredite lands were given to Prince Malkijah. The promises and prophecies should be understood through the tribe of Judah first. The author postulates that the Royal Davidic Bloodline was preserved on the ships of Hagoth. The descendants of Prince Malkijah relocated to the Toronto area in Canada and are now found among the nations of the Iroquois Confederacy in upstate New York and some in Canada. The story goes deep into the details of who may have traveled with Prince Malkijah and explains how the Urim and Thummim, and High Priest’s Breastplate made it to America. Mormon (or another scribe) purposely omitted the history of Mulek and the source of these sacred items to sanitize the “Nephite record” of any credit going to the tribe of Judah. The book clears up conflicting Book of Mormon Geography details and traces exactly where Prince Malkijah landed and settled. It also bears out with specificity how the “Remnant of the Seed of Jacob” fulfilled the New Jerusalem prophecies and defines who that remnant is. The author shows parallels between Lehi being led far from Book of Mormon lands (they landed deep in Lamanite territory) and Joseph Smith being removed from Book of Mormon lands (western NY to Kirtland OH)ーboth because they refused to adhere to the requirements of God strictly.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,043円

Building Zion The Material World of Mormon Settlement【電子書籍】[ Thomas Carter ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>For Mormons, the second coming of Christ and the subsequent millennium will arrive only when the earth has been perfected through the building of a model world called Zion. Throughout the nineteenth century the Latter-day Saints followed this vision, creating a material worldーfirst in Missouri and Illinois but most importantly and permanently in Utah and surrounding western statesーthat serves as a foundation for understanding their concept of an ideal universe.</p> <p><em>Building Zion</em> is, in essence, the biography of the cultural landscape of western LDS settlements. Through the physical forms Zion assumed, it tells the life story of a set of Mormon communitiesーhow they were conceived and constructed and inhabitedーand what this material manifestation of Zion reveals about what it meant to be a Mormon in the nineteenth century. Focusing on a network of small towns in Utah, Thomas Carter explores the key elements of the Mormon cultural landscape: town planning, residences (including polygamous houses), stores and other nonreligious buildings, meetinghouses, and temples. Zion, we see, is an evolving entity, reflecting the church’s shift from group-oriented millenarian goals to more individualized endeavors centered on personal salvation and exaltation.</p> <p><em>Building Zion</em> demonstrates how this cultural landscape draws its singularity from a unique blending of sacred and secular spaces, a division that characterized the Mormon material world in the late nineteenth century and continues to do so today.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,006円

My First Book of Mormon Stories Book【電子書籍】[ Deanna Draper Buck ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Archive of Restoration Culture was founded on the belief that Joseph Smith and the Restoration cannot be appreciated without an understanding of his environment. Student-scholars began working on the Archive project in 1997 and were followed during the next two years by other teams of advanced undergraduates and graduate students. The papers in the volume are the fruits of their labors. They show how far afield Joseph Smith's thoughts ranged, and how many of his contemporaries were wrestling with similar issuesーthe role of Israel, the nature of priesthood, the quest for the visionary. The nineteen articles collected in this book are divided into the following categories: priesthood and Church government, visionary leaders in the age of Joseph Smith, distinctive doctrines of the Restoration in historical context, and the cultural background of the Restoration. Joseph Smith becomes both more recognizable and more unusual when placed against this background.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 956円

The Plates of Mormon A Book of Mormon Study Edition Based on Textual and Narrative Structures in the English Translation【電子書籍】[ Brant A. Gardner ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>For nearly two centuries, Latter-day Saints have been reading the Book of Mormon through multiple changes in its punctuation, formatting, and versification. T<em>he Plates of Mormon: A Book of Mormon Study Edition Based on Textual and Narrative Structures in the English Translation</em> offers a new perspective on this book of scripture by seeking to align its English translation with the inaccessible golden plates from which that translation was made. Originally punctuated and formatted by the 1830 first edition’s compositor, John H. Gilbert, who had to add punctuation and paragraphs to the text to make it more reader-friendly, this study edition meticulously returns to this issue by reexamining punctuation and paragraphs to enhance readability while maintaining faithfulness to the source material. Utilizing insights explored in his companion volume, <em>Engraven Upon Plates, Printed Upon Paper: Textual and Narrative Structures of the Book of Mormon</em>, editor Brant A. Gardner also addresses issues of spelling, grammar, alterations, deletions, and paratextual information, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the Book of Mormon's composition and the principles guiding this edition's editorial decisions.</p> <p>Additionally, this edition examines narrative and literary structures in its translation to best represent how Mormon’s ancient writings were recorded on his golden plates. It does so not only by removing modern summaries and versification formatting, but also by returning the text to its original chapters and relocating the small plates section outside of Mormon’s intended record. It also highlights the logic behind punctuation, paragraphing, chapters, and headers, helping readers gain a more profound appreciation for the text's nuances. If you're interested in the Book of Mormon's origins, textual structure, and the thoughtful decisions made in presenting it, this edition provides valuable insights and a fresh perspective on this sacred text. It is a must-read for those seeking to explore the Book of Mormon anew.</p> <p><strong>Praise for <em>The Plates of Mormon</em>:</strong></p> <p>"Brant Gardner’s <em>The Plates of Mormon: A Book of Mormon Study Edition</em> is highly recommended to any and all readers who want to more deeply engage the text of the Book of Mormon. In this book, Gardner takes readers back to the early stages of the coming forth of the Book of Mormon. He expertly works through the book’s transmission, bringing to life the words of Mormon, Nephi, and others. Gardner skillfully integrates the earliest manuscripts of the Book of Mormon while also highlighting the hundreds of places where the Book of Mormon interacts with the Bible. A remarkable achievement." ー Nicholas J. Frederick, Associate Professor of Ancient Scripture, Brigham Young University, and author of <em>The Bible, Mormon Scripture, and the “Rhetoric of Allusivity”</em></p> <p>"This volume is a welcome addition to other recent study editions of the Book of Mormon. Relying upon the Printer’s Manuscript, Gardner succeeds in making the text more intelligible and accessible to readers through a careful restructuring of punctuation, sentences, paragraphs, and narrative blocks, as well as by beginning with the large plates followed by the small. Readers will engage anew with the text of the Book of Mormon in this logically and creatively reformatted presentation, supported by highly insightful footnotes. There is much to be gained from this innovative contribution to Book of Mormon studies." ー Kerry Hull, co-editor, <em>A Hundredth Part: Exploring the History and Teachings of the Book of Mormon</em></p> <p>"Brant Gardner’s <em>The Plates of Mormon: A Book of Mormon Study Edition</em> is an excellent addition to the small but growing number of scholarly editions of the Nephite record. Working from the Printer’s Manuscript, Gardner has undertaken the labor of its first compositor, John H. Gilbert, by punctuating and paragraphing the Book of Mormon text afresh and providing a new and enjoyable experience, one which rewards its readers with new insights as the familiar chapter-and-verse structure is shaken up. Most notable is the re-arrangement by order of translation, allowing readers to experience the Book of Mormon as its original authors intended. Footnotes throughout provide interesting history and insights from the Original and Printers’ Manuscripts, as well as noting quotations, allusions, and echoes to the language of the King James Bible, enriching the reader’s experience. Having published and presented on the Book of Mormon in academic settings for over two decades, Brant Gardner has here produced a study edition of the Book of Mormon worthy of inclusion on the shelves of every serious student of the keystone scripture." ー Jared Riddick, librarian and archivist at Scripture Central</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,070円
