  Welcome to a journey through history—cobwebs aren't the only relics hidden in the dusty corners of time. Our tale begins in the dingy underbelly of bygone eras where soot and grime paint the canvas of our story. We'll climb through the centuries with the nimble fingers and scuffed knees of child chimney sweeps, whose stories have been tucked away like a dirty secret amidst the grand tapestry of the past. It's a tale that'll pull at your heartstrings and tickle your funny bone, because, let's be honest, who can't help but chuckle at the thought of top-hatted gentlemen and pinafore-clad lasses, even as we dig into the less genteel side of history?

  How do ancient Greek myths find themselves retold and reinterpreted in cultures across the world, several millennia later? In this volume, bestselling author Richard Buxton explores the power that eight iconic Greek myths hold in the modern world. Buxton traces these stories and archetypes from their ancient forms through their transformations over time in literature, art, cinema, psychology, and politics. 
   
   
   
  Over their long lives, Greek myths have expressed a myriad of meanings. This erudite yet accessible exploration examines how the world's most influential myths have survived to the present, and how they have shaped our ideas on everything from family and society to sexuality and culture. 
   
   
   
  As Buxton explains, each of the eight featured myths is fundamental to the way we think about ourselves and the world. The figure of Prometheus has inspired science fiction icons from Mary Shelley to Ridley Scott. The tragedy of Medea has had a profound impact on theater, feminism, and even criminology. Oedipus's influence stretches far beyond Freud. The rich visual tradition inspired by Greek myths—from pottery to paintings to popular culture—illustrates this wide-ranging, sometimes surprising study, making this book thought-provoking and a must-listen.

  The Folklore of Rome - Myth...

  Step beyond the ruins and into the pulse of ancient Rome—not the Rome of marble triumphs and imperial decrees, but of whispered spells, ghostly omens, and mythic memory. The Folklore of Rome: Myth, Magic, Dying, and the Making of the Empire is an immersive exploration of how stories, superstitions, and sacred rites shaped the world’s most enduring civilization from its legendary beginnings to its imperial zenith. 
  In these pages, history meets enchantment. Chapter by chapter, the book reveals how Roman identity was bound to its folklore: the way Livy’s histories blurred myth and moral lesson, how domestic charms and street-corner incantations governed daily life, and how rituals of dying transformed death into a civic and spiritual act. From household gods to battlefield omens, from public festivals to private fears, Rome’s imagination was alive with unseen forces—powers that both inspired and restrained its people. 
  With vivid scholarship and a storyteller’s touch, The Folklore of Rome uncovers the Empire’s hidden heartbeat: the dreams, doubts, and supernatural beliefs that gave meaning to conquest and glory. More than a study of myths and rituals, it is a rediscovery of Rome as a living myth itself—a civilization forever poised between the mortal and the divine.

  Disability and the Church - A...

  Lamar Hardwick was thirty-six years old when he found out he was on the autism spectrum. While this revelation helped him understand and process his own experience, it also prompted a difficult re-evaluation of who he was as a person. And as a pastor, it started him on a new path of considering the way disabled people are treated in the church. 
   
   
   
  Disability and the Church is a practical and theological reconsideration of the church's responsibilities to the disabled community. Too often disabled persons are pushed away from the church or made to feel unwelcome in any number of ways. As Hardwick writes, "This should not be." He insists that the good news of Jesus affirms God's image in all people, and he offers practical steps and strategies to build stronger, truly inclusive communities of faith.
