Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. xv+420pp with illustrations and maps. Octavo (8 3/4" x 6") issued in black with grey and white lettering to spine. Pictorial white and black dust jacket. 1st edition. This work recounts the reservation period of the Cheyenne and the Arapahos in western Oklahoma and the following fifteen years. It is an investigation-and an indictment-of the assimilation and reservations policies thrust upon them in the latter half of the nineteenth century, policies that succeeded only in doing enormous damage to a sturdy, vital people. Confined to a reservation in the Indian Territory in 1875, the Southern Cheyenne and their neighbors, the Arapahos, traditionally hunting and mobile societies, were forced into the federal government's image of "educated, Christian farmer-citizens." Lacking the support of adequate appropriations or protective legislation, the Cheyenne¿s' lives were dominated by hunger, disease and despair. Continuing niggardliness on the part of Congress in providing adequate agricultural equipment and instruction and an environment hostile to cultivation made agricultural self-sufficiency all but impossible. The continued reduction of their land base through allotments under the 1887 Dawes Act and later leasing and sale of land to whites further eroded the Indians' meager sources of income and security. An educational policy that left Cheyenne children without hope of jobs, the banning of traditional religious ceremonies, the prejudice of white citizens and institutions, and the undermining of the roles of head men and medicine men led to further despair. But, as the author demonstrates, despite these crushing burdens and in the face of slow and inevitable changes in the society, the Southern Cheyenne retained their identity, a testimony to their courage and character. This well-documented, compassionate account of the ordeal of the two tribes serves as a classic example of what happened to America's Indians at the hands of the whites. This is volume 136 in the Civilization of the American Indian Series. Condition: Some light foxing to head end pages. Dust jacket lightly foxed at fold over edge, price clipped. Over all a very good to fine copy in a near fine dust jacket.…

Brossura. Etat : ottimo. In inglese. Brossura editoriale formato cm 15,0 x 23,0, pagg. IX + 134. Ottimo esemplare. Specializzato in filosofia della religione e rinomato teologo, ha dato importanti contributi in materia di teodicea, escatologia, e cristologia, nell'area di filosofia della religione, ha dato forti apporti all'epistemologia e al pluralismo religioso. Comunità non-cristiane, principalmente indu, mussulmane e sikh, avevano cominciato a stabilirsi in Inghilterra. A causa dell'influsso di persone di differenti tradizioni religiose, certe organizzazioni si dedicarono all'integrazione di tali comunità. Si afferma che Hick sia regolarmente citato come il più importante filosofo della religione del ventesimo secolo. Keith Ward lo descrive come "il più grande filosofo vivente di religione globale ". Hick è meglio conosciuto per la sua difesa del pluralismo religioso, che è radicalmente diverso dai tradizionali insegnamenti cristiani che teneva quando era più giovane. Forse a causa del suo assiduo coinvolgimento con i gruppi interreligiosi di cui sopra, e la sua interazione con le persone di religioni non cristiane tramite tali quei gruppi, Hick ha cominciato a muoversi verso la sua visione pluralistica della religione. Ha osservato, che, come è venuto a conoscere queste persone che appartenevano a religioni non cristiane, vedeva in loro gli stessi valori e azioni morali che lui riconosceva nei cristiani. Hick è stato criticato in particolare dall'allora cardinale Joseph Ratzinger, poi papa, quando era capo del Sant'Uffizio. Ratzinger aveva esaminato le opere di diversi teologi accusati di relativismo ed ebbe a scoprire che molti, se non tutti, erano stati filosoficamente ispirati da Hick. Pertanto, la dichiarazione di Dominus Iesus al momento fu vista da molti come una condanna delle idee e teorie di Hick.

Ampia biografia illustrata, bibliografia, mostre . Cm 23,5x27. pp. 174. . Perfetto (Mint). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Questo libro accompagna un'importante retrospettiva itinerante del lavoro di John Wood, che comprende l'intera gamma della sua carriera produttiva dalla fine degli anni Cinquanta a oggi, in oltre 210 opere. I saggi includono una valutazione del lavoro di John da parte di David Levi Strauss, una biografia completa e una bibliografia compilata da William Johnson, e una valutazione dell'importante ruolo di Wood come educatore per oltre trent'anni da parte di Ezra Shales. Un DVD include filmati del lavoro di Wood, interviste recenti e un programma per girare le pagine e sperimentare le sue opere in tempo reale.Nato in California nel 1922, John Wood ha sempre sfidato la fotografia tradizionale, incorporando spesso la pittura, il disegno e il collage, nonché il cliché verre, la solarizzazione e la litografia offset. L'artista sottolinea il ruolo del disegno nel suo lavoro: "Il disegno, la calligrafia, il movimento cinetico della mano sono molto importanti per me, probabilmente più di qualsiasi altra cosa". Trasgredendo i confini della fotografia diretta, la pratica di Wood ha contribuito a inaugurare un approccio alternativo al mezzo. Le sue composizioni diaristiche e multimediali si rivelano per le loro combinazioni di testo e immagini, anticipando l'odierna era digitale con il suo piacere per la manipolazione. Book.…
