Download The Good And Evil Serpent Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The serpent of ancient times was more often associated with positive attributes like healing and eternal life than it was with negative meanings. This groundbreaking book explores in plentiful detail the symbol of the serpent from 40,000 BCE to the present, and from diverse regions in the world. In doing so it emphasizes the creativity of the biblical authors' use of symbols and argues that we must today reexamine our own archetypal conceptions with comparable creativity.--From publisher description.

"Close, critical, and generative reading can be broken down into five key questions that a strategic reader must answer: What does the text say? How does the author say it? What does the text mean? What does it mean to me? What insights can I now gain? In this resource, the authors show that insight into these questions is the key to comprehending text. The authors provide tools such as mining charts, assessments, progress monitoring charts, and rubrics to strengthen the teaching and use of strategies including guided highlighted reading for craft, finding the element of argument in text, reading multiple texts for theme, and evaluating visual text. A culminating chapter provides a blueprint for creating a literacy action plan for classroom, school, and district that highlights students' growth and documents teacher effectiveness."

New York City. 1982 A mans obsession leads him on a Dantesque journey in search of lost love. Part I - Hell Jerry leaves his Upper East Side apartment for what he thinks will be just another night-weekend prowling the streets and bars of Greenwich Village and Chelsea; something he has been doing every weekend since his lover, Richard, left him a little over a year ago. This night, however, shortly before last call, he meets a stranger (always strangers) who takes him to . . . Hell. In each descending level of Hell he has episodic encounters with former lovers and tricks triggering memories of what was and could have been . . . until he finds Richard, his obsession. Expecting to continue where they left off, Jerry goes ecstatically with Richard to the lower depths where he is abandoned. Distraught and confused, Jerry is taken to even lower depths by emissaries of the Sexless-one and the Grey-Haired Man where, as a consequence of his love for Richard, he suffers all of the celebrated Passion as the degrading, painful depravity it was . . . only to go on . . . without Richard. Part II - Paradise The stranger (Dante) reappears and takes Jerry back uptown, home, which is now Paradise! Dante introduces him to Mary, his Beatrice-like guide in Paradise, who takes him to a dinner party in the triple-terraced penthouse of theatrical agent Leo Renril - who thinks of himself as Margo Channing from the movie All About Eve! The other selves of some of the people Jerry met in Hell are also at the gathering. As the accused in the game(?) of the night, Inquisition, Jerry learns that the political and religious powers-that-be plan to tattoo and exterminate everyone who leads his kind of life in order to stop the impending plague. Jerry can escape this fate if he agrees to be the example of what should not be. He refuses . . . unless he can return to Hell and bring Richard back with him into Paradise. Intense and shocking argument; verbal and physical mayhem ensue as each side tries to persuade Jerry to either join the powers- that-be in Paradise, or Dante and his followers against those powers. You will be entertained, appalled, enlightened, angered and riveted by the characters and events of Inferno Diary.

The differences that divide West from East go deeper than politics, deeper than religion, argues Anthony Pagden. To understand this volatile relationship, and how it has played out over the centuries, we need to go back before the Crusades, before the birth of Islam, before the birth of Christianity, to the fifth century BCE. Europe was born out of Asia and for centuries the two shared a single history. But when the Persian emperor Xerxes tried to conquer Greece, a struggle began which has never ceased. This book tells the story of that long conflict. First Alexander the Great and then the Romans tried to unite Europe and Asia into a single civilization. With the conversion of the West to Christianity and much of the East to Islam, a bitter war broke out between two universal religions, each claiming world dominance. By the seventeenth century, with the decline of the Church, the contest had shifted from religion to philosophy: the West's scientific rationality in contrast to those sought ultimate guidance it in the words of God. The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries witnessed the disintegration of the great Muslim empires - the Ottoman, the Mughal, and the Safavid in Iran - and the increasing Western domination of the whole of Asia. The resultant attempt to mix Islam and Western modernism sparked off a struggle in the Islamic world between reformers and traditionalists which persists to this day. The wars between East and West have not only been the longest and most costly in human history, they have also formed the West's vision of itself as independent, free, secular, and now democratic. They have shaped, and continue to shape, the nature of the modern world.
