Free Download Crisis and Reorientation: Karl Barth’s Römerbrief in the Cultural and Intellectual Context of Post WWI Europe
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031276760 | 360 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 3 MB
This book uses Karl Barth’s Der Römerbrief (1922) as a prism through which to explore the role of religion and its interactions with cultural and political thought in the turbulent interwar period in Europe. One of the most influential books in twentieth-century protestant theology, Der Römerbrief found Barth arguing that the crisis of the time was grounded in an even more profound crisis that pertained to the human condition as such. While much research has been conducted on Der Römerbrief, most of it has focused on the book’s explicit theology. The aim of the present volume is to mark the centenary of this seminal book with a broader investigation into the movements of thought within Der Römerbrief and its reception and impact within its cultural and intellectual context. This broader approach by a range of Northern European researchers brings attention to interconnections between cultural and theological movements in times of crisis.

As he does so, he demonstrates a variety of lighting and styling techniques that will help you enhance your own images.  Once he has set up the pastel-coloured background, Karl experiments with introducing props – specifically, some acrylic rods, which he ultimately decides are too distracting to be part of the final composition.  Next, Karl begins crafting his lighting setup. You’ll see him using softboxes, scrims, projection attachments, gobos and more, plus an array of DIY reflectors and flags. The goal is to create perfect gradients on the metallic product lids while also achieving a lovely warm glow through the products themselves.  In a satisfying instance of on-the-fly problem-solving, Karl identifies the cause of a troublesome shadow and comes up with a simple but effective solution.  You’ll also discover why he cuts a hole through a big piece of foam board and chops up a piece of plain white paper!  As Karl works hard to get all the shots he needs to create a stunning final image, you’ll increase your knowledge and expertise by watching a professional pursue perfection.
