Between Prophecy and Apocalypse The Burden of Sacred Time and the Making of History in Early Medieval Europe


Free Download Matthew Gabriele, "Between Prophecy and Apocalypse: The Burden of Sacred Time and the Making of History in Early Medieval Europe"
English | ISBN: 0199642559 | 2024 | 160 pages | PDF | 8 MB
The tenth and eleventh centuries in medieval Europe are commonly seen as a time of uncertainty and loss: an age of lawless aristocrats, of weak political authority, of cultural decline and dissolute monks, and of rampant superstition. It is a period often judged from its margins, compared (mostly negatively) to what came before and what would follow. We impose upon it both a sense of nostalgia and a teleology, as they somehow knowingly foreshadow what is to come.

Apocalypse From Antiquity to the Empire of Modernity


Free Download Apocalypse: From Antiquity to the Empire of Modernity By John R. Hall
2009 | 296 Pages | ISBN: 0745645089 | PDF | 3 MB
For most of us, "Apocalypse" suggests the cataclysmic end of the world. Yet in Greek "apocalypse" means "revelation," and the real subject of the Book of Revelation is how the sacred arises in history at a moment of crisis and destiny. With origins in ancient religions, the apocalyptic has been a transformative force from the time of the Crusades, through the Reformation, the French Revolution and modern communism, all the way to the present day "Islamic Jihad" and "War on Terror." In Apocalypse, John R. Hall explores the significance of apocalyptic movements and the role they have played in the rise of the West and "The Empire of Modernity." This brilliant cross-disciplinary study offers a novel basis for rethinking our social order and its ambivalent relations to sacred history. Apocalypse will attract general readers seeking new understandings of the world in challenging times. Scholars and students will find a compelling synthesis that draws them into conversation with others interested in religion, theology, culture, philosophy, and phenomenology, as well as sociology, social theory, western civilization, and world history.

Free Download Hank Hanegraaff (Author, Narrator), "The Apocalypse Code: Find Out What the Bible Really Says About the End Times…and Why It Matters Today"
English | ASIN: B09SVR3MNK | 2022 | M4B@64 kbps | ~10:28:00 | 305 MB
The Apocalypse Code is a call to understand what the Bible really says about the end times and why how we understand it matters so much in today’s world.
Breaking the code of the book of Revelation has become an international obsession. Hank Hanegraaff, president and chairman of the Christian Research Institute, believes the result has been rampant misreading of Scripture, bad theology, and even bad politics and foreign policy. Hanegraaff argues that the key to understanding the last book of the Bible is the other 65 books of the Bible-not current events or recent history, and certainly not any complicated charts.
