The Song of Hugh Glass , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 170min
In 1912, at the age of 31, John Neihardt began work on A Cycle of the West, a set of five heroic poems, designed to celebrate the great mood of courage that was developed west of the Missouri River in the 19th century. The series was dreamed out, much of it in detail, before he began; and for years, it was his hope that it might be completed at the age of 60 - as it was. "The Song of Hugh Glass" is the third poem in the Cycle. "The Song of Hugh Glass" (and also "The Song of Three Friends") deals in general with the ascent of the Missouri River and with characteristic adventures of Ashley-Henry men in the country of the Upper Missouri and the Yellowstone. Hugh Glass, a member of the Ashley-Henry men, lived an epic tale; mauled by a bear and left for dead by Henry's men, one of whom was his closest friend and comrade. His resultant crawl back to civilization, gravely wounded, unarmed, and fueled by hate would be a tale of revenge except for Hugh's ultimate redemption and the forgiveness of those who deserted him. "The Song of Hugh Glass" is unquestionably a masterpiece of the poet, John Neihardt, who has been called the "American Homer." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robin Neihardt.

Lexikon der Bibelhermeneutik
The Dictionary of Biblical Hermeneutics brings together concepts relating to the theories, methods and conceptions of Bible interpretations under the central heading of a text-referenced hermeneutics. The resultant textual hermeneutics of the Bible forms a new paradigm which does not regard the Bible primarily as Gospel or Holy Scripture but views it from a textual and literary studies perspective as a "Supratext". The dictionary is targeted at scholars in both theology and cultural studies. The work involves conventional intratheological models of biblical hermeneutics in an innovative dialogue with contemporary models for understanding texts.Das Lexikon der Bibelhermeneutik führt die einschlägigen Grundbegriffe, Methoden, Spezialbegriffe sowie historischen und aktuellen Konzeptionen der Verstehenslehre der Bibel unter dem leitenden Gesichtspunkt einer textbezogenen Hermeneutik zusammen. Theologische Modelle der Bibelhermeneutik werden mit geistes- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Modellen des allgemeinen Textverstehens in einen innovativen Dialog gebracht. Die Artikel werden von Vertretern der beteiligten theologischen Fächer sowie von den entsprechenden sprach- und literaturwissenschaftlichen Disziplinen, der Philosophie und den Religionswissenschaften (Judaistik und Islamwissenschaft) erarbeitet. Die so entstehende enzyklopädisch strukturierte Texthermeneutik der Bibel und ihrer Teiltexte versteht die kanonische Fassung der Bibel als Supertext, dessen Teiltexte zu dem kanonischen Textcorpus der "Bibel" zusammengestellt wurden, für das seit der Alten Kirche immer wieder spezielle Verstehenslehren entworfen wurden und dessen Auslegungsgeschichte eine eigene Textkultur bildet, die sich in einem ständigen Austausch mit philologischen, philosophischen und literatur- und sprachwissenschaftlichen Modellen von Hermeneutik und Interpretation befindet.- Shop: buecher

As a result, the victim stops thinking for themselves. Instead, the victim ends up acting and behaving in the manner the master or manipulator orders them to do. Almost always, brainwashing involves some type of force or trauma which causes the victim to essentially fear the consequences of not complying with the manipulator’s orders. This book covers the following topics:BrainwashingKeep practicing - every day guided meditationsManipulationBody language and manipulationAffirmations for successAnd much moreThat’s why brainwashing techniques have been developed over the years in order to ensure that victims or test subjects end up becoming fully obedient and compliant.Manipulation is a form of social influence which uses indirect, underhanded, and deceptive tactics to change people’s perceptions and their resultant behavior. Usually, the end goal is to advance the interests of the person who initiates the manipulation.

Walls: Why Racism and Sexism Don't Matter...As Much , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 663min
Are our political leaders the only ones significantly shaping the course taken by our post-modern civilizations? Now, more than ever, the notion of “puppet leaders”, although extreme, and somewhat inaccurate, is often the go-to concept, for the frustrated working-class person, who not only lost his/her job but likewise their life-long savings, in an economic crash, of which, little responsibility was theirs in bringing about.In Walls, although the author alludes to elite-rule, both political and socioeconomic in kind, he shies away from economic and financial jargon for his explanations, instead relying on anthropological, historical and sociological approaches. The book attempts to illustrate that the frictions within factions in society, between whites and non-whites, men and women, are resultant from wealth disparities within the society, or rather, that, it boils down to jealousy on one side and greed on the other. Thus, the author paints a vivid sketch of how notions of racial, as gender antagonisms, can be attributed to the inherent exploitative methods of rule, by the political, ‘power’ and socioeconomic elites. This rule is made possible by the initial disparities of wealth, which, over time, and when subjected to concerted efforts of "game rigging" by several actors, engenders power. A few of the topics covered: What is - and is not - race? What is - and is not - racism? Race, racism, and inequalityPostmodern feminism: some of the theory and its limitations Power Hegemony Propaganda and perceptions Democracy promotion ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Complexity of Modern Asymmetric Warfare: International and Security Affairs Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 363min
Today more than 100 small, asymmetric, and revolutionary wars are being waged around the world. This book provides invaluable tools for fighting such wars by taking enemy perspectives into consideration. Using case studies, Manwaring outlines vital survival lessons for leaders and organizations concerned with national security in our contemporary world. The insurgencies Manwaring describes span the globe. Beginning with conflicts in Algeria in the 1950s and 1960s and El Salvador in the 1980s, he goes on to cover the Shining Path and its resurgence in Peru, Al Qaeda in Spain, popular militias in Cuba, Haiti, and Brazil, the Russian youth group Nashi, and drugs and politics in Guatemala, as well as cyber warfare. Large, wealthy, well-armed nations such as the United States have learned from experience that these small wars and insurgencies do not resemble traditional wars fought between geographically distinct nation-state adversaries by easily identified military forces. Twenty-first-century irregular conflicts blur traditional distinctions among crime, terrorism, subversion, insurgency, militia, mercenary and gang activity, and warfare. Manwaring's multidimensional paradigm offers military and civilian leaders a much needed blueprint for achieving strategic victories and ensuring global security now and in the future. It combines military and police efforts with politics, diplomacy, economics, psychology, and ethics. The challenge he presents to civilian and military leaders is to take probable enemy perspectives into consideration, and turn resultant conceptions into strategic victories. The book is published by University of Oklahoma Press. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Troy W. Hudson. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/063640/bk_acx0_063640_sample.mp3.

Threesome : The Jill Emerson Novels, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 267min, (USK 18)
Jill Emerson, whose first three works were gentle explorations of the lesbian experience, took a sharp turn toward candor in Thirty, her first book for Berkley. As I’ve explained in the book description for that novel, around the time Berkley came calling (via my agent) I’d become disenchanted with the whole notion of fiction recounted by some disembodied third- or first-person narrator. It struck me as artificial, and my response was to pile artifice upon artifice and produce a novel in the guise of an actual document. In Thirty, the novel pretended to be a diary. That worked fine, and the resultant narrative proved at once challenging and effortless to sustain. I enjoyed writing it, Berkley enjoyed publishing it - and they wanted something else. What they got in Threesome was a novel pretending to be a novel. The premise, as you’ll see, is that the book has been written by its three main characters, Harry and Rhoda and Priss, in the form of a lightly fictionalized chronicle of their own life as a menage a trois. They set about writing alternate chapters - and, reading one another’s work as they go along, they learn things they hadn’t known, and one thing leads to another, and - I think the phrase we want is tour de force, and how nice to be able to use it in the same book description as menage a trois. The book was also about as much fun as I’ve ever had while sitting at a typewriter. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dolores McDougal, Bill Weeden.

Year of the Black Pony (Living History Library) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 213min
The Fellows family has joined numerous others striving to make a go of homesteading in the Oregon high desert. But the venture has been disastrous from the start. Mr. Fellows, who is not a farmer, resents any advice from his wife, who grew up on a farm. Ma is not only troubled about the farming, but 7-year-old Ellie's chronic illness has become a source of constant worry and expense. 12-year-old Chris, who cannot seem to please his father no matter what he does, eases his own misery by stealing time away from work to watch a neighbor's scarcely broken black pony, only to get into more trouble. When it seems circumstances could not get worse for the struggling family, Fellows gets drunk and dies. Not willing to give up, Ma stubbornly-and creatively-seeks a way for the family to stay in Oregon. Frank Chase, an unintentional element in the death of Chris's father, is added to the mix and challenged by Ma to keep his word to help the family. The resultant dramatic and sometimes humorous contest of wills comes to a satisfying culmination when, after Frank's purchase of the wild black pony for Chris, Ma is reluctantly forced to once again use her "backbone of steel" for the good of all. Walt Morey's careful research and vivid storytelling talent warmly bring to life the struggles and triumphs of homesteading in the Oregon high desert country in the early 1900's. ungekürzt.
