Islamic Law in Contemporary Indonesia: Ideas and
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Feener, R. Michael / Cammack, Mark E., PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, Although often neglected in the literature on Islamic law, contemporary Indonesia is an especially rich source of insight into the diverse understandings and uses of the Islamic legal tradition in the modern world. Indonesian Muslims are engaged in vibrant and far-reaching debates over the terms, relevance, and developmental limits of Islamic law, and Indonesia is home to a variety of dynamic state and non-state institutional structures for the generation and application of Islamic doctrine. The essays in this volume provide focused examinations of the internal dynamics of intellectual and institutional elements of Islamic law in modern Indonesia in its recent formations. The first five chapters address issues relating to Islamic legal theory, both its historical development over the past century and analysis of the work of specific groups of contemporary scholars, jurists, and activists. The final seven chapters contain studies of more concrete manifestations of Islamic law in modern Indonesia, including court systems, positive law, the drafting of new "Islamic" legislation, and contemporary debates over the implementation of the Shari'a. Taken together these essays offer a series of substantive introductions to important developments in both the theory and practice of law in the world's most populous Muslim society.

The Essence
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Derting, Kimberly, PUBLISHER: Margaret K. McElderry Books, "Danger, dread, mystery, and romance" ("Booklist") continue in the second book of The Pledge trilogy, as Charlie's reign is under siege from the most unusual of enemies. At the luminous conclusion of" The Pledge," Charlaina defeated the tyrant Sabara and took her place as Queen of Ludania. But Charlie knows that Sabara has not disappeared: The evil queen's Essence is fused to Charlie's psyche, ready to arise at the first sign of weakness. Charlie is not weak, but she's being pushed to the brink. In addition to suppressing the ever-present influence of Sabara, she's busy being queen--and battling a growing resistance determined to return Ludania to its discriminatory caste system. Charlie wants to be the same girl Max loves, who Brook trusts, but she's Your Majesty now, and she feels torn in two. As Charlie journeys to an annual summit to meet with leaders of nearby Queendoms--an event where her ability to understand all languages will be the utmost asset--she is faced with the ultimate betrayal. And the only person she can turn to for help is the evil soul residing within.
Transformational Discipleship: How People Really Grow
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Geiger, Eric / Kelley, Michael / Nation, Philip, PUBLISHER: B&H Publishing Group, A Christian's desire to grow in faith is beautiful and biblical, best illustrated in Jeremiah 17 where Scripture describes "The man who trusts in the LORD" as being "like a tree planted by water... It will not worry in a year of drought or cease producing fruit." But how do people really grow? "Transformational Discipleship" describes the process that brings to life that kind of person described in the Bible. There's no magic formula or mantra to recite here, but rather a substantive measure of research with churches and individuals who have wholeheartedly answered the call of Jesus to make disciples. A compilation of their wisdom and stories, it surely guides church leaders and members to practice the intentional efforts needed to foster an entire culture in which people grow in Christian faith. And they will grow, not because of human research, but by the power of the Word and of the Holy Spirit working through the church--the same way disciples have always been made. When the people of God engage in the mission of God through the Spirit of God, lives are transformed.

It is not for those who put their entire trust in Church and Bible rather than in the living God, who has gone before them..............................................................................................................

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: D'Antonio, Michael, PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, If ever there was a figure who changed the game of baseball, it was Walter OaMalley. Criticized in New York and beloved in Los Angeles, OaMalley is one of the most controversial owners in the history of American sports. He remade the major leagues and altered the course of history in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles when he moved the Dodgers to California. But while many New York critics attacked him, OaMalley looked to the future, declining to argue his case. As a result, fans across the nation have been unable to stop arguing about himauntil now. Using never-before-seen documents and candid interviews with OaMalleyas players, associates, and relatives, Pulitzer Prizeawinning writer Michael DaAntonio finally reveals this complex sportsman and industry pioneer. Born into Tammany Hall connections, OaMalley used political contacts to grow wealthy during the Great Depression, and then maneuvered to take control of the formerly downtrodden Dodgers. After his defeat in a war of wills with the famed power broker, Robert Moses, OaMalley uprooted the boroughas team and transplanted them to Los Angeles. Once in Los Angeles, OaMalley overcame opponents of his stadium and helped define the city. Other owners came to regard him as their guideaalmost an unofficial commissioneraand he worked behind the scenes to usher in the age of the playersa union and free agency. Filled with new revelations about OaMalleyas battle with Moses, his pioneering business strategies, and his relationship with Jackie Robinson, "Forever Blue" is a uniquely intimate portrait of a man who changed Americaas pastime forever. His fascinating story is fundamental to the history of sports, business, and the American West.

Inherit the Land: Jim Crow Meets Miss Maggie's Will
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stowe, Gene / Sergio, Carl A., PUBLISHER: University Press of Mississippi, In the early twentieth century, two wealthy white sisters, cousins to a North Carolina governor, wrote identical wills that left their substantial homeplace to a black man and his daughter. Maggie Ross, whose sister Sallie died in , was the richest woman in Union County, North Carolina. Upon Maggie's death in , her will bequeathed her estate to Bob Ross--who had grown up in the sisters' household--and his daughter Mittie Bell Houston. Mittie had also grown up with the well-to-do women, who had shown their affection for her by building a house for her and her husband. This house, along with eight hundred acres, hundreds of dollars in cash, and two of the white family's three gold watches went to Bob Ross and Houston. As soon as the contents of the will became known, more than one hundred of Maggie Ross's scandalized cousins sued to break the will, claiming that its bequest to black people proved that Maggie Ross was mentally incompetent. Revealing the details of this case and of the lives of the people involved in it, Gene Stowe presents a story that sheds light on and complicates our understanding of the Jim Crow South. Stowe's account of this famous court battle shows how specific individuals, both white and black, labored against the status quo of white superiority and ultimately won. An evocative portrait of an entire generation's sins, "Inherit the Land: Jim Crow Meets Miss Maggie's Will" hints at the possibility for color-blind justice in small-town North Carolina. Gene Stowe grew up in Monroe, North Carolina, and was a reporter for the "Charlotte Observer" for twelve years. He is head of the writing program of Trinity School at Greenlawn in South Bend, Indiana. Carl A. Sergio earned degrees in art design and psychology at the University of Notre Dame. He is currently working in Chicago while preparing to attend graduate school. Learn more about the author at http: //genestowe.blogspot.com/. Acquista Ora

Oscar Wilde Il principe felice e altre fiabe Edizioni Paoline Maestri n. 176 Traduzione: Marielena Bianchi d'Espinosa Introduzione e Note: Valentino Gambi Anno: marzo I edizione Pagine: Introduzione + 116 + Indice + Collana Codice ISBN: - Copertina: cartone editoriale telato verde con tasselli. Stato: Buono stato. Molto buono. Peso del libro: gr. 165 Misure del libro: cm x cm La fotografia riproduce il libro. NOTA: Richiedete il catalogo per usufruire della promozione. NOTA: Dello stesso Autore sono disponibili altri Titoli. Per alcuni esempi guarda le foto in allegato. Contenuto: Questa raccolta si sofferma su una delle parti meno note della produzione di Oscar Wilde: le fiabe. Non si troveranno qui motti di spirito corrosivi, brillanti paradossi ma un mondo incantato fuori dal tempo, dove la vecchia Inghilterra, si mescola a un Oriente di fantasia e al mondo di principi e re. Oltre alle celebri Il principe felice e L'usignolo e la rosa sono da apprezzare gioielli meno conosciuti come Il compleanno dell'Infanta dove il mondo della corte di Spagna è ricostruito con mano maestra dallo scrittore irlandese. L'Autore: Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (Dublino, 16 ottobre – Parigi, 30 novembre ) è stato un poeta, aforista, scrittore, drammaturgo, giornalista e saggista irlandese. Autore dalla scrittura apparentemente semplice e spontanea, ma sostanzialmente molto ricercata ed incline alla ricerca del bon mot, con uno stile talora sferzante e impertinente egli voleva risvegliare l'attenzione dei suoi lettori e invitarli alla riflessione. Ã^ noto soprattutto per l'uso frequente di aforismi e paradossi, per i quali è tuttora spesso citato. L'episodio più notevole della sua vita, di cui si trova ampia traccia nelle cronache del tempo, fu il processo e la condanna a due anni di prigione per avere violato la legge penale che codificava le regole morali in materia sessuale della sua stessa classe sociale. Molti i libri scritti sulle sue vicende e sulle sue opere, tra le quali, in particolare, i suoi testi teatrali, considerati dai critici dei capolavori del teatro dell'800.
