Sinopsis

Francis Thompson's "Shelley" offers a profound exploration of the life and works of the renowned Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. Utilizing a lyrical prose style that mirrors Shelley's own poetic spirit, Thompson examines the intricate interplay between Shelley's personal experiences, philosophical ideals, and artistic aspirations. The book delves into thematic elements such as love, nature, and revolution, resonating with the broader Romantic movement that sought to break free from the constraints of neoclassicism. Thompson's insightful analysis situates Shelley within the socio-political context of his time, highlighting his radical ideas and the impact of his tumultuous life on his poetic oeuvre. Francis Thompson, a poet himself and deeply entrenched in the literary culture of his era, was influenced by both Romantic and Victorian values. His background in classical education and his admiration for the great poets shaped his understanding of artistic expression, leading him to investigate Shelley's contributions to literature. Thompson's personal struggles with faith and identity parallel Shelley's own, making his examination a nuanced reflection on creativity and existential inquiry. Readers who seek to understand the depth of Shelley's legacy will find Thompson's "Shelley" to be an indispensable guide. It not only illuminates the poet's intricacies but also encourages a deeper reflection on the artistic journey itself. This work is essential for both scholars and those passionate about the transformative power of poetry.

    Roman religion was deeply intertwined with the culture, politics, and daily life of its people. Unlike many other ancient religions, it was not based on a single sacred text or central doctrine but was instead a complex system of beliefs, rituals, and traditions that evolved over time. The foundations of Roman religion can be traced back to early influences, the societal role of religious practices, and the establishment of a structured priesthood. 
    The origins of Roman religion were shaped by various influences, including the Etruscans and Greeks. The Etruscans, who inhabited central Italy before the rise of Rome, contributed many religious customs, such as the practice of interpreting omens and the organization of priestly colleges. Greek influence introduced a pantheon of gods with human-like qualities, which Romans later adopted and adapted to fit their own cultural identity. This blending of traditions resulted in a unique religious system that emphasized duty, order, and reciprocity between humans and the divine. 
    Religion played a crucial role in Roman society, guiding both private and public life. Every household maintained a sacred space for worshiping domestic deities, such as the Lares and Penates, who were believed to protect the home and family. On a larger scale, the state religion was intertwined with governance, and public rituals were performed to secure divine favor for Rome’s prosperity. The performance of religious ceremonies was not merely a matter of personal faith but was considered essential for the stability of the state. Romans believed that their success as a civilization depended on maintaining good relations with the gods through proper observance of rituals and sacrifices.

  • Politics & Mission - Rediscovering the Political Power of What Christians Do - cover

    Contrary to popular sentiment, Christianity is not dull or out of touch but fresh, relevant, exciting, and contemporary. The Church is political because it tells a radically different story from the dominant political norms of our day. Through a study of the Church’s liturgy, this book seeks to build confidence in the Church’s mission.
    
     
    Politics & Mission examines five pieces of liturgy—namely morning prayer, baptism, eucharist, footwashing and the funeral—detailing in turn the ways in which the language of the liturgy, which we often take for granted, is powerful and counter-cultural. Through its analysis, the book sheds light on three principal areas: what it is to be human, the challenges of contemporary mission, and the particular way in which the Church is political.
    
     
    In so doing, new resources are offered for the practicing Christian, those in Church leadership, and those looking at the Church from the outside, to reflect on and grapple with the challenges of this generation.
