Rites of Execution : Capital Punishment and the Transformation of American Culture, 1776-1865 by Riverside Louis P. Masur Professor of History University of California Pdf
Between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries, Western societies abandoned public executions in favor of private punishments, primarily confinement in penitentiaries and private executions. The transition, guided by a reconceptualization of the causes of crime, the nature of authority, and the purposes of punishment, embodied the triumph of new sensibilities and the reconstitution of cultural values throughout the Western world. This study examines the conflict over capital punishment in the United States and the way it transformed American culture between the Revolution and the Civil War. Relating the gradual shift in rituals of punishment and attitudes toward discipline to the emergence of a middle class culture that valued internal restraints and private punishments, Masur traces the changing configuration of American criminal justice. He examines the design of execution day in the Revolutionary era as a spectacle of civil and religious order, the origins of organized opposition to the death penalty and the invention of the penitentiary, the creation of private executions, reform organizations' commitment to social activism, and the competing visions of humanity and society lodged at the core of the debate over capital punishment. A fascinating and thoughtful look at a topic that remains of burning interest today, Rites of Execution will attract a wide range of scholarly and general readers.

The Divine Nature by Christian Science Publishing Society Pdf
Excerpt from The Divine Nature: An Abbreviated Statement, Heaven's First Law, the Knowledge of God, the Only Begotten Son, Man and Body, Unity of Action All the things that have actual being exist at the standpoint of effect in consequence of some substantial cause which has induced their existence. Everything in the universe is a manifestation of some basis, origin, source, foundation, causation, Principle. Man with his intelligence is the phenomenon of a necessarily intelligent cause or creative animus. This primary creative cause is an infinite, conscious, intelligent Being; the only law-maker; the supreme author and ruler of the universe. This Supreme Being, who is infinite good and who hath done all things well, alone may be called Deity. This divinity is the only God. Man is a state of conscious intelligence or being. The divine plan concerning man provides for him harmonious and satisfying existence and an adequate dominion over his environment. Man governed wholly by God would be sustained in health and prosperity. God has not instituted nor procured disease or kindred ills for the discomfiture of man. They have no part in the divine nature or economy. Sickness is not a natural nor God-ordained concomitant of existence. The human race, which declares itself to be a fallen race, is in a state of abnormity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
