Ecclesia et Violentia by Radosław Kotecki,Jacek Maciejewski Pdf
Ecclesia et Violentia is an interdisciplinary anthology that explores the phenomenon of violence in relation to the medieval Church, as well as within the structures of that institution. The volume provides a clearer understanding of hostile and violent acts against both religious institutions and clergy, and explores the interpersonal aggression between clergymen or forms of violent behaviour of medieval clerics. It investigates, furthermore, the role of violence in maintaining discipline within religious communities, as well as religious, legal and cultural interpretations of the aforementioned issues. However, despite the many points of view expressed here, the central question the authors reconcile is how the phenomenon of violence interacted with the most important medieval institution, and official Church thinking regarding concepts such as power, rank, feudal loyalty and protection and ownership. Through the geographical diversity of the contributions and the variety of disciplinary perspectives, this book highlights how important violence was in the life of the clergy and how it formed an integral part of the legal culture and social bonds in many regions of medieval Europe.

Heresy and the Formation of Medieval Islamic Orthodoxy by Ahmad Khan Pdf
Between the eighth and eleventh centuries, many defining features of classical Sunni Islam began to take shape. Among these was the formation of medieval Sunnism around the belief in the unimpeachable orthodoxy of four eponymous founders and their schools of law. In this original study, Ahmad Khan explores the history and cultural memory of one of these eponymous founders, Abū Ḥanīfa. Showing how Abū Ḥanīfa evolved from being the object of intense religious exclusion to a pillar of Sunni orthodoxy, Khan examines the concepts of orthodoxy and heresy, and outlines their changing meanings over the course of four centuries. He demonstrates that orthodoxy and heresy were neither fixed theological categories, nor pious fictions, but instead were impacted by everything from law and politics, to society and culture. This book illuminates the significant yet often neglected transformations in Islamic social, political and religious thought during this vibrant period.

My book of life is my Bible; written to purge my mind; a release and burden of knowledge, where a silver lining is unveiled. Sacred thoughts flowed onto the paper; therapy to rid my mind of the past. A story which if to told would be a injustice to mankind, where evil is exposed; its influence has reached throughout all levels of our society and entwined itself within the fabric of our communities. This book is recollections of my passage through hell where I faced a challenge advancing with a major mental disease. Publicly crucified, the scene everyday life; led through this marathon; my journey into the unknown by a 6th sense; instinct and culminating in life after death; the path to the Holy Grail.
