楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

But the real work of a historian is to listen to the voices of those who have gone before and humbly remember the flesh and blood on the other side of the evidence. What is their story? How does it become part of our own?In <em>A Little Book for New Historians</em> veteran historian Robert Tracy McKenzie offers a concise, clear, and beautifully written introduction to the study of history. In addition to making a case for the discipline in our pragmatic, "present-tense" culture, McKenzie lays out necessary skills, methods, and attitudes for historians in training.

1 K?nige 16 - 2 K?nige 16【電子書籍】[ Steve McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Der Kommentar bedient sich unterschiedlicher Zug?nge und Methoden zur Erschlie?ung des Mittelteils der K?nigeb?cher. Diese erscheinen dabei in neuem Licht, und zwar sowohl in diachroner wie in synchroner Hinsicht. Grundlegend ist eine detaillierte Textkritik, die h?ufig Lesarten aus der Septuaginta und der Vetus Latina denen aus der hebr?ischen Tradition vorzieht. Dies wiederum hat Folgen f?r die Chronologie der K?nige von Israel und Juda. Zudem wird eine neue Theorie zur Entstehungs- und Kompositionsgeschichte dieses Teils der K?nigeb?cher entwickelt: Er verdankt sich gro?enteils einem nachexilischen "prophetischen Erz?hler", der freilich auf ?ltere Legenden, namentlich ?ber Elischa, zur?ckgriff und der Gesamtdarstellung die Gestalt gab, die sie heute hat.</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。 24,800円

Otto Wood, the Bandit The Freighthopping Thief, Bootlegger, and Convicted Murderer behind the Appalachian Ballads【電子書籍】[ Trevor McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Legions of bluegrass fans know the name Otto Wood (1893?1930) from a ballad made popular by Doc Watson, telling the story of Wood’s crimes and violent death. However, few know the history of this Appalachian figure beyond the larger-than-life version heard in song. Trevor McKenzie reconstructs Wood’s life, tracing how a Wilkes County juvenile delinquent became a celebrated folk hero. Throughout his short life, Wood was jailed for numerous offenses, stole countless automobiles, lost his left hand, and made eleven escapes from five state penitentiaries, including four from the North Carolina State Prison after a 1923 murder conviction. An early master of controlling his own narrative in the media, Wood appealed to the North Carolina public as a misunderstood, clever antihero. In 1930, after a final jailbreak, police killed Wood in a shootout. The ballad bearing his name first appeared less than a year later.</p> <p>Using reports of Wood’s exploits from contemporary newspapers, his self-published autobiography, prison records, and other primary sources, Trevor McKenzie uses this colorful story to offer a new way to understand North Carolinaーand arguably the South as a wholeーduring this era of American history.</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。 1,972円

Il capitale ? morto Il peggio deve ancora venire【電子書籍】[ Wark McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Capitalismo delle piattaforme, capitalismo della sorveglianza, postcapitalismo, capitalismo green ? sono moltissime le definizioni attraverso le quali si ? provato a definire o ispirare l'attuale governo economico del mondo, ma nessuna ? stata capace di restituire davvero la contemporaneit? in cui viviamo, e per una ragione molto semplice: il capitale non esiste pi?. Il capitale ? morto. McKenzie Wark, studiosa marxista eretica, in questo suo nuovo saggio analizza l'ascesa di una nuova classe dominante il cui potere risiede nella propriet? e nel controllo dell'informazione, trasformando radicalmente lo stesso significato della parola ≪capitalismo≫. Il risultato? Disastri planetari, diseguaglianze senza precedenti, e la contemporanea comparsa di una nuova classe di sfruttati ? noi ? chiamati a hackerare un sistema persino pi? ingiusto di quello che l'ha preceduto. Perch? il peggio deve ancora venire: teniamoci pronti. McKenzie Wark ? scrittrice e studiosa di teoria dei media, teoria critica e studi culturali. ? autrice, tra gli altri, di Un manifesto hacker, Gamer Theory e Molecular Red. Insegna Media e Cultural Studies alla New School for Social Research di New York. "Un'esplorazione efficace e provocatoria del nostro mondo digitale che precipita verso il disastro ecologico.

Nick Srnicek "McKenzie Wark ha riscritto il canone della teoria critica."

What About Repentance【電子書籍】[ Marvin McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>I am excited! There are few subjects that get debated as often as does that of repentance. Christians, even those who claim to be of like faith and practice (I mean independent, fundamental Baptists) split hairs and churches over it.</p> <p>The word repentance, in one form or the other, is found one hundred twelve times in the Bible. That's plenty of material to discover what God has to say on the subject. This book is an attempt to do just that.</p> <p>If you are looking for me to give you all the answers on the doctrine of repentance, I am afraid you will be disappointed. I have my opinions, conclusions form my personal studies, past and present. No doubt you'll see what they are in these pages. My goal is not to prove my conclusions, or even to quantify them exactly. My goal has been to simply study and preach the Bible:</p> <p>In context</p> <p>Led of the Holy Ghost</p> <p>Those passages of Scripture that address the doctrine.</p> <p>I did not cover all those passages, or even as much of the Word of God as I envisioned I would. These were originally messages I preached to those souls the Lord has been gracious enough to place in the care of the church I pastor. I simply ran out of time.</p> <p>In my opinion, the final two chapters provide a sufficient end to conclude the study. Prayerfully, the Lord will be pleased to bless as you study with me, "What About Repentance?"</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。 850円

Interpreting Charles Taylor’s Social Theory on Religion and Secularization A Comparative Study【電子書籍】[ Germ?n McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines “Taylorean social theory,” its sources, main characteristics and impact. Charles Taylor’s meta-narrative of secularization in the West, prominently contained in his major work <em>A Secular Age</em> (2007), has brought new insight on the social and cultural factors that intervened in such process, the role of human agency, and particularly on the contemporary conditions of belief in North America and Europe. This study discusses what Taylor’s approach has brought to the scholarly debate on Western secularization, which has been carried on mostly in sociological terms. McKenzie interprets Taylor’s views in a way that offers an original social theory. Such interpretation is possible with the help of sociologist Margaret Archer’s “morphogenetic theory” and by making the most of Taylor’s particular understanding of the method of the social sciences and of his philosophical views on human beings, knowledge and modernity. After exploring the philosophical and sociological sources informing Taylorean social theory and proposing its basic concepts and hermeneutic guidelines, the author compares it with two widespread theories of secularization: the now waning “orthodox” account and that proposed by Rational Choice Theory scholars, particularly prevalent in the United States. In doing so, the book shows in which ways Taylorean social theory supersedes them, what new issues it brings into the scholarly discussion, and what difficulties might limit its future development.</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。 9,723円

What's Wrong Church?: A Bible Study of First Corinthians【電子書籍】[ Marvin McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Somebody once said that if you have a problem in your church, but don't want to address it directly, you should teach through the book of 1 Corinthians because every major type problem a church can have is handled in this book. Someone else wrote that 1 Corinthians offers to us the most: ? Practical, ? Detailed, and ? Scriptural instructions on conducting church affairs anywhere in the New Testament. So, from that vantage, I want to begin this study through 1 and 2 Corinthians.</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。 1,097円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Sober by Act of Parliament," Fred A. McKenzie explores the intricate relationship between governance and societal change through the lens of Prohibition in the early 20th century. McKenzie employs a vivid narrative style enriched with historical detail and personal anecdotes, illustrating how legislative measures attempted to shape cultural mores around alcohol consumption.

Idolatry in the Pentateuch An Innertextual Strategy【電子書籍】[ Tracy J. McKenzie ]

<p>Idolatry in the Pentateuch addresses both the manner in which the Pentateuch was produced and how theological intentions can be discerned from the texts that constitute it. McKenzie attempts to read the final shape of the Pentateuch while not ignoring the diachronic complexities within its pages. Using a compositional approach to the Pentateuch, he establishes his methodology, analyzes several idolatry-related texts, and traces the theological intentions through an inner-textual strategy. Moreover, McKenzie briefly considers the history of interpretation through the last few centuries and discusses the state of Old Testament studies as he understands 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。 2,653円

The Long Road Home... A Philosophical Journey.【電子書籍】[ Richard McKenzie Neal ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>By this point in our lives (my target readers) weve all heard the old adage You cant go home. But what does it mean? As life winds down and the drone of existence begins to wane, I'm feeling an intangible desire or need to reach back into my past and reconnect with a by-gone time and people...living and/or dead. It feels like an elusive melody that seems distantly familiar, yet strange and unidentifiable. If all the above sounds like a premonition of the inevitable, I agree and accept that my time is ticking away. But its not about dyingits about going home! Im not afraid of dying, but I do struggle with the reality that I will no longer physically exist. I have to wonder if the term going home isnt a misnomer and maybejust maybe, were trying to return to Neverland (Fridays With Landon). When we were very young we searched for that elusive, utopian communityand studies have shown that in our declining years, we slowly revert to our childhood. Another line-of-thought is that its all just a mirage. We know and accept that a man can be dying of thirst, in the middle of the driest desert, and his mind will anesthetize him by creating the illusion of an oasis. If we can acknowledge that phenomenon (the minds coping mechanism) then it shouldnt be much of a stretch to reason that the elderly possess those same innate coping capabilitiesto ease their journey home. Of course their mirage would be about going homenot to a place, but to another time. What is the driver for this (apparently) universal pilgrimage? I have to wonder, even compare it to an addicts motivation (The Path to Addiction)one more trip down that path of pleasant memories even as the host is being sacrificed.</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。 562円

Common Enemies: Crime, Policy and Politics in Australia Indonesis【電子書籍】[ Michael McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Over the last two decades, Australia and Indonesia have built a remarkable partnership in the fight against terrorism and other transnational crimes. <em>Common Enemies: Crime, Policy, and Politics in Australia-Indonesia Relations</em> is the first in-depth study of this partnership, examining both its successes and its failures. Drawing on over 100 interviews and extensive archival material, the book tells the inside story of the joint police investigation into the 2002 terrorist bombings in Bali, the extradition of Indonesian corruption fugitive Adrian Kiki Ariawan, the public campaigns in support of Australians detained in Indonesia for drug trafficking, and the 2013 spying scandal that led to a freeze in cooperation. It also investigates many cases that never made the headlines in an effort to understand the conditions that promote criminal justice cooperation between these two very different countries. The book reveals a tension between parochial politics and policy ambition at the heart of the bilateral relationship, and explores how politicians, bureaucrats, and private actors animate this tension. It also considers how various 'wars on crime' since the 1970s have shaped the relationship, and the importance of reciprocity in maintaining the relationship. Based on this analysis, it identifies strategies for enhancing cross-border cooperation to combat crime. The mix of engaging case studies and novel theorising in <em>Common Enemies</em> will appeal to both practitioners and scholars of transnational policing, international relations, regulation, and global governance.</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。 9,372円

Deconstructing Happiness Critical Sociology and the Good Life【電子書籍】[ Jordan McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book offers an original account of the good life in late modernity through a uniquely sociological lens. It considers the various ways that social and cultural factors can encourage or impede genuine efforts to live a good life by deconstructing the concepts of happiness and contentment within cultural narratives of the good life. While empirical studies have dominated the discourse on happiness in recent decades, the emphasis on finding causal and correlational relationships has led to a field of research that arguably lacks a reliable theoretical foundation. <em>Deconstructing Happiness</em> offers a step toward developing that foundation by offering characteristically sociological perspectives on the contemporary fascination with happiness and well-being. In doing so, it seeks to understand the good life as a socially mediated experience rather than a purely personal or individually defined way of living. The outcome is a book on happiness, contentment and the good life that considers the influence of democracy, capitalism and progress, while also focusing on the more theoretical challenges of self-knowledge, reason and interaction.</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。 9,948円

Hidden In My Heart【電子書籍】[ Marvin McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Years ago, when I first started in the ministry, I was admonished not to teach through Psalms 119. The reason, I think was with good intent. I was going to start a brand-new church and the pastor who encouraged me not to teach this wanted me to teach through Acts ? it's an exciting book about church planting.</p> <p>I just want to tell you that there may not be any more important portion of the Bible than Psalms 119. It sits right in the center of your Bible. It's the largest chapter in the Bible by far. Almost twice as long as the next longest.</p> <p>May our loving Saviour bless a good meditation of this, most exciting piece of HIS WORD.</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。 850円
