Book excerpt: Hybrid Creatures, Matthew Baker’s sharp and innovative collection, follows four very different protagonists as they search for, and struggle with, connection: an amateur hacker attempts to track down his vanished mentor; a math prodigy, the child of divorced parents, struggles with being torn between his two families; a composer takes a spontaneous trip to Nashville while mourning his husband’s death and gets trapped on a hotel rooftop with a hipster; and a wayward philosopher accepts a job working for an industrial farming corporation. Through-out, Baker explores the inner dialogue of failed, floundering, and successful bonds between strangers, among family and friends, and even within a person. Pairing the emotional pursuit of connection with multiple forms of communication, Baker weaves the languages of HTML, mathematics, mu-sical notations, and propositional logic into the storytelling in order to unveil nuances of experiences and emotions. This poignant formal invention articulates loneliness, grief, doubt, and comfort in ways that are inaccessible through traditional language alone. In both form and content, Baker captures the complexities of breaking and forming connections with other people, and the various lan-guages we use to navigate this inescapable human need—resulting in a moving exploration of interpersonal bonds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 21st century, hybrids (such as hybrid war, hybrid regimes, hybrid cars, and hybrid identities, among others) have become all-pervasive, and the computer term “mashup” has turned into a symbol of hybridity. This book highlights the phenomenon of hybridity and hybridization from a variety of angles and perspectives – in social and cultural practices, education and fiction – and notes the connecting patterns between hybridization in different fields of human endeavour. Perhaps the most important hallmark of our age is the crossover into the virtual. The spread of hybrids in “post-reality” has snowballed due to the Internet and the ease of the web-based dissemination of information and disinformation. New entities, such as fake news, have been put together using collage techniques with the result that make-believe events produce real-life effects. Without the special analysis provided in this book, this non/reality generated to manipulate people is unlikely to be differentiated from authentic stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume takes a new look at an old question: what is the relationship between beauty and monstrosity? How has the notion of beauty transformed through the years and how does it coincide with monstrous ontologies? Contributors offer an interdisciplinary approach to how these two concepts are interlinked and emphasize the ways the beautiful and the monstrous pervade human experience. The two notions are explored through the axis of human transformation, focusing on body, identity, and gender, while questioning both how humans transform their body and space as well as how humans themselves are gradually transformed in different contexts. The pandemic, gender crisis, moral crisis, sociocultural instability, and environmental issues have redefined beauty and the relationship we have with it. Exploring these concepts through the lens of human transformation can yield valuable insights into what it means to be human in a world of constant change. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, archaeology, philosophy, architecture, and cultural studies.

Book excerpt: Early Christianity had its origin in the eschatological ministry of Jesus. After his death, his initial followers banded together to form an apocalyptic messianic Jewish sect, known as Judeo- Christians, during the late Second Temple period in the 1st century. Initially, the prevailing belief was that the resurrection of Jesus marked the beginning of the end of times. However, over time, this perspective evolved into anticipating the second coming of Jesus and the beginning of the Kingdom of God at a future time. References: Fredriksen, 2018. Barnett, Paul (2002). Jesus, the Rise of Early Christianity: A History of New Testament Times. InterVarsity Press. p. 21. ISBN 0-8308-2699-8. Alister McGrath, former professor of historical theology at the University of Oxford, claims that many of the “Jewish Christians” of the first century were completely faithful religious Jews. Referencia: McGrath, Alister E. (2006). Christianity: An Introduction. Blackwell Publishing. ISBN 1-4051-0899-1. p. 174: «In effect, they [Jewish Page 1 de 389 Christ and his myths Christians] seemed to regard Christianity as an affirmation of every aspect of contemporary Judaism, with the addition of one extra belief — that Jesus was the Messiah. Unless males were circumcised, they could not be saved (Acts 15:1)». Historically, Christians of Jewish descent who adhered to the prescriptions of the Mosaic Law constituted a significant part of Christianity in the 1st century. However, due to the tumultuous historical events that affected Palestine during that period, this current experienced a considerable dispersion. Over time, this community diversified, giving rise to a series of groups with diverse theologies and beliefs. In the West, these Judaizing Christian variants became extinct during the 4th century, while in the East, their decline lasted until the 6th century. The Christian movement has its genesis in Palestine as a Jewish sect of an apocalyptic messianic type, which evolved in the Roman world from the 1st to the 4th century, in groups of Judeo-Christian Romans with a Hellenic imprint and symbology, many of the parables of the New Testament have a marked Pythagorean aesthetic. The authorship of the term "Judeo-Christianity" is attributed to a liberal Protestant biblical exegete, Ferdinand Christian Baur, founder of the Tübingen school, in an article published in 1831. Christianity in the First Century encompasses the formative history of Christianity, from the beginning of Jesus' ministry (c. 27-29 AD) to the death of the last of the Twelve Page 2 de 389 Christ and his myths Apostles (c. 100) (and therefore Therefore, it is also known as the Apostolic Age). Early Christianity spans several historical periods, each of which played a crucial role in the development of the Church. The ancient church era is generally divided into several stages, including the period of the apostolic fathers, the apologists, the early Christian martyrs, the church fathers, and the late ancient imperial church. This period extends from the early days of Christianity to the Council of Chalcedon in the year 451 and is considered an integral part of the history of the Church. In the Western Church, the early church era often extends to the fall of the Western Roman Empire. Some authors extend this period to the papacy of Gregory the Great (540-604), considered the last father of the Western Church. Gregory is also recognized in the Eastern Church. This extension marks the end of a crucial phase in the history of the Church and is characterized by the transition from antiquity to the Middle Ages. Paul of Tarsus, also known as Saul of Tarsus or Saul Paul, and venerated as Saint Paul (born in Tarsus, Cilicia, around 5-10 AD and died in Rome in the year 58-67), is recognized as the "Apostle of the Gentiles", the "Apostle to the nations" or simply "the Apostle". This influential character played a fundamental role in the founding of Christian communities and stood out as Page 3 de 389 Christ and his myths an evangelizer in important urban centers of the Roman Empire, such as Antioch, Corinth, Ephesus and Rome. In addition to his work as a preacher, Paul was the author of some of the first canonical Christian writings, including the First Epistle to the Thessalonians, considered the oldest known. His impact on early Christianity is undeniable, establishing himself as a leading figure and one of the most influential personalities in the entire history of Christianity. References:Brown (2002). Introduction to the New Testament, II, p. 557: "Along with Jesus, Paul has been the most influential character in the history of Christianity." Vidal García (2007). Pablo. From Tarsus to Rome, p. 11: "Obviously, Paul's presence in early Christianity was not that of a simple witness, but that of a qualified and, in several aspects, unique actor.” Analysis of the authentic epistles of Paul of Tarsus reveals the unique amalgamation of his Jewish roots, the profound influence of Hellenic culture, and his remarkable interaction with the Roman Empire. The letters written by Paul offer a fascinating vision of his identity, in which his Jewish heritage converges, which shaped his spiritual perspective, the rich influence of Hellenic culture that formed his thought and expressions, and his notorious connection with the Roman Empire. , to which, according to the story in the book of the Acts of the Apostles, he held citizenship. This complex combination of cultural influences and identities underscores the diversity that Page 4 de 389 Christ and his myths characterizes Pablo's life and work, highlighting his ability to adapt and communicate effectively in different contexts. His ability to resonate with both Jewish and Gentile audiences, as well as his role in spreading the Christian message in the cultural melting pot of the Mediterranean world, contribute to cementing his position as an extraordinary figure in religious and cultural history. of early Christianity. The early community of Jerusalem marked the beginning of Christian gatherings after Pentecost, developing between the 1930s and 1970s. In Christian history, early Christianity refers to the emergence of faith after the death of Jesus around the year 30 or 33. Some scholars place its conclusion with the writing of the synoptic gospels around 90 AD, while others associate it with the appearance of the apologists in the second century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between medieval animal symbolism and the iconography of animals in the Renaissance has scarcely been studied. Filling a gap in this significant field of Renaissance culture, in general, and its art, in particular, this book demonstrates the continuity and tenacity of medieval animal interpretations and symbolism, disguised under the veil of genre, religious or mythological narrative and scientific naturalism. An extensive introduction, dealing with relevant medieval and early Renaissance sources, is followed by a series of case studies that illustrate ways in which Renaissance artists revived conventional animal imagery in unprecedented contexts, investing them with new meanings, on a social, political, ethical, religious or psychological level, often by applying exegetical methodology in creating multiple semantic and iconographic levels.
