    Toni Morrison's Beloved as African-American Scripture & Other Articles on History and Canon: Hermit Kingdom Studies in History and Religion , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 275min
    Toni Morrison's Beloved as African-American Scripture & Other Articles on History and Canon is a very important academic book exploring the question of historicity and canonicity -- the relationship (in causality and relational terms) between the experience of human community and the creation (or the interpretation) of a religious text (and the canonization of a religious "text"). This book contains a collection of academic articles ranging from African-American history, Jewish history, early Christian history, the New Testament, Patristic history, medieval history, and the history of the Reformation. This academic work is a bold quest to capture the essence of history and canon as phenomenalized in the human experience. Scholars and students of history, religion, literary criticism, sociology, anthropology, humanities, and theology will surely benefit from reading this book. Although this book is highly academic, it is written in a very readable style so that educated individuals who may not be specialists will benefit from the articles in the book. ungekürzt.

    Chinese Literature: A Very Short Introduction  , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 301min
    Perhaps nowhere else has literature been as conscious a collective endeavor as in China, and China's survival over 3,000 years may owe more to its literary traditions than to its political history. This Very Short Introduction tells the story of Chinese literature from antiquity to the present, focusing on the key role literary culture played in supporting social and political concerns. Embracing traditional Chinese understandings of literature as encompassing history and philosophy as well as poetry and poetics, storytelling, drama, and the novel, Sabina Knight discusses the philosophical foundations of literary culture as well as literature's power to address historical trauma and cultivate moral and sensual passions. From ancient historical records through the modernization and globalization of Chinese literature, Knight draws on lively examples to underscore the close relationship between ethics and aesthetics, as well as the diversity of Chinese thought. Knight also illuminates the role of elite patronage; the ways literature has served the interests of specific groups; and questions of canonization, language, nationalism, and cross-cultural understanding. ungekürzt.

Even after her death in 1997, the Missionaries of Charity is working for people dying with HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and leprosy, running orphanages, schools and soup kitchens, operating dispensaries and mobile clinics, and providing counseling to children and their families.

    Saint Joan, Hörbuch, Digital, 216min
    Saint Joan by George Bernard ShawPresented by The Online StageAccording to George Bernard Shaw, Joan of Arc was in fact one of the first Protestant martyrs. She was one of the first apostles of nationalism, and the first French practitioner of Napoleonic realism in warfare. She also refused to accept the specific woman's lot, and dressed and fought and lived as men did.Shaw's exploration of the story of this ingenuous and eponymous heroine is set in six scenes and an epilogue, which takes place on 1456, when the church cleared Joan of the charge of heresy and condemned her accusers of corruption.The ghost of Joan appears and, later, an emissary from the year 1920, to announce Joan's canonization. This production also includes a very condensed version of Shaw's lengthy preface. Cast: Narrator and Duchess de la Trémouille - Anna GraceRobert de Baudricourt, Sentry and Courcelles - Graham Scott  Joan - Amanda FridayBertrand, D'Estivet and Gentleman - Jeff MoonArchbishop and First Assessor - David StifelDe la Trémouille, John de Stogumber and Executioner - Denis DalySteward and Warwick - Alan WeymanLa Hire, Second Assessor and English Soldier - Phil BensonBluebeard and Ladvenu - David ShearsCharles (Dauphin) - Tom SaerDunois and Third Assessor - Andy HarringtonCauchon - Peter TuckerInquisitor - Noel BadrianPage - Sarah BacallerAudio edited by Denis Daly Language: English.

    Absent a Miracle , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1044min
    Alice Fairweather, a lapsed Catholic who lives in upstate New York with her two sons and philandering husband (whom she loves to distraction), has just lost her dream job as a radio talk show hostess. When one of the family dogs suddenly becomes gravely ill, Alice opts out of a family spelunking vacation to nurse the pooch. Unexpectedly, her husband’s charismatic, Nicaraguan, Harvard roommate, Abelardo - coffee planter, failed seminarian, and scion of an old Nicaraguan family - comes to visit as part of his quest to have his aunt canonized as the first Nicaraguan saint. Through a variety of somewhat bizarre and miraculous events, Abelardo must return home to his village before his canonization work is complete. But Alice, with time on her hands and a void to fill, adopts Abelardo’s mission and becomes obsessed with helping him find the path to sanctify his ancestor. Not only does she befriend Hubert, the eccentric man in charge of New York’s hagiography club, she becomes somewhat of an expert on the various women who have achieved the distinction of sainthood, and soon finds herself on a plane destined for Nicaragua. Abelardo’s quest to canonize his aunt, together with Alice’s quest to save her marriage, makes for a miraculous story of love, loss, and faith. ungekürzt. Language: English.
