Beschreibung

Medieval Scholars illuminates the often-underappreciated role of Middle Eastern scholars during the medieval period in shaping the course of scientific progress, challenging the traditional Eurocentric view of history. This book explores the profound advancements made during the Islamic Golden Age, particularly in mathematics, astronomy, and medicine, and how this intellectual powerhouse influenced the subsequent European Renaissance. Discover how scholars preserved and expanded upon classical Greek texts and developed sophisticated mathematical concepts like algebra, which were later transmitted to Europe, fueling advancements in various fields. The book meticulously traces the pathways through which this knowledge was disseminated, highlighting the crucial role of translation movements and cross-cultural exchange. For example, the establishment of sophisticated observatories allowed for precise astronomical measurements, contributing to a more accurate understanding of celestial phenomena. Furthermore, groundbreaking medical discoveries, such as advancements in pharmacology and surgery, had a lasting impact on European medical practices. Through detailed analyses of scientific and medical concepts, Medieval Scholars offers a unique perspective on the interconnectedness of intellectual history. The book progresses through chapters that first introduce key figures and institutions, then delve into specific advancements in mathematics, astronomy, and medicine, finally tracing the transmission of this knowledge to Europe. By focusing on tangible contributions and providing concrete examples, the book aims to foster a deeper appreciation for the diverse cultural roots of scientific progress and to challenge simplistic narratives.

    Kamakura Shogunate - Samurai...

    The rise of the Kamakura Shogunate marks a pivotal moment in Japanese history, transitioning from the aristocratic Heian period to the feudal system dominated by the samurai. This era began with the victory of Minamoto no Yoritomo, who, after the Genpei War (1180-1185), established a new form of governance centered in Kamakura, a small coastal town far from the imperial capital of Kyoto. 
    The Genpei War was a civil conflict between the Taira and Minamoto clans, which ultimately ended with the defeat of the Taira in the Battle of Dan-no-ura in 1185. Minamoto no Yoritomo, the leader of the Minamoto clan, emerged as the victor, but his triumph was not simply a personal or clan-based success. Yoritomo's victory laid the foundation for a shift in the political landscape of Japan. The Taira had represented the old courtly aristocracy that governed Japan through the imperial system, but the rise of the Minamoto signaled the beginning of samurai dominance and a move toward military rule. 
    In 1192, Yoritomo was granted the title of shogun by the emperor, an act that formalized his military authority. This title, meaning "generalissimo" or "commander of the army," was traditionally given to military leaders in times of war but had never been used as the primary governing title before. This marked the official beginning of the Kamakura Shogunate, a military dictatorship that would rule Japan for over a century. Though the emperor remained the nominal ruler, Yoritomo’s power was based in Kamakura, far from the imperial court, which shifted the balance of power from the capital to the military elite.

    While most of Gibran's early writings were in Arabic, most of his work published after 1918 was in English. His first book for the publishing company Alfred A. Knopf, in 1918, was "The Madman," a slim volume of aphorisms and parables written in biblical cadence somewhere between poetry and prose. Gibran is considered to be the third most widely read poet in history, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu.

    "A forceful call to recognize the roots of American inequality and a solid starting point for Christians who want to help fix them." —Publishers Weekly 
     
     
     
    Racism is not about hate and ignorance. It's about greed. And it always has been. 
     
     
     
    Black Christian historian Malcolm Foley explores this idea in The Anti-Greed Gospel, showing how the desire for power and money—what some call "racial capitalism"—causes violence and exploitation. 
     
     
     
    Foley reviews the history of racial violence in the United States and connects the killings of modern-day Black Americans to the history of lynching in America. He helps the contemporary church wrestle with the questions racial violence brings up: How can we become communities that show generosity and resist greed? What is the next step in the journey for racial justice? 
     
     
     
    Listeners will walk away with a better understanding of how they can resist greed that exploits others, love their neighbor more completely, and build communities of deep solidarity, anti-violence, and truth telling.
