The Irish Times 150 Years of Influence

Terence Brown, "The Irish Times: 150 Years of Influence"
English | ISBN: 1472919068 | 2015 | 448 pages | EPUB | 5 MB
The Irish Times is a pillar of Irish society. Founded in 1859 as the paper of the Irish Protestant middle class, it now has an incomparable position in Irish political, social and cultural life. Thus, this history of the Irish Times is also a history of the Irish people. Always independent in ownership and political view and never entwined in any way with the Roman Catholic Church, it has become the barometer of Irish life and society followed by people of all religious and political persuasions. The paper is politically liberal and progressive as well as being center right on economic issues. This history is peopled by all the great figures of Irish history-Daniel O`Connell, W.B. Yeats, Garrett Fitzgerald, Conor Cruise O`Brien and the paper has numbered among its contributors Tony Blair and Bill Clinton. Its influence on Irish society is beyond question.

The Interval Relation and Becoming in Irigaray, Aristotle, and Bergson

The Interval: Relation and Becoming in Irigaray, Aristotle, and Bergson By Rebecca Hill
2012 | 198 Pages | ISBN: 0823237249 | PDF | 2 MB
The Interval offers the first sustained analysis of the concept grounding Irigaray's thought: the constitutive yet incalculable interval of sexual difference. In an extension of Irigaray's project, Hill takes up her formulation of the interval as a way of rereading Aristotle's concept of topos and Bergson's concept of duration.Hill diagnoses a sexed hierarchy at the heart of Aristotle's and Bergson's presentations. Yet beyond that phallocentrism, she points out how Aristotle's theory of topos as a sensible relation between two bodies that differ in being and Bergson's intuition of duration as an incalculable threshold of becoming are indispensable to the feminist effort to think about sexual difference.Reading Irigaray with Aristotle and Bergson, Hill argues that the interval cannot be grasped as a space between two identities; it must be characterized as the sensible threshold of becoming, constitutive of the very identity of beings. The interval is the place of the possibility of sexed subjectivity and intersubjectivity; the interval is also a threshold of the becoming of sexed forces.

The Holy Vote Inequality and Anxiety Among White Evangelicals

The Holy Vote: Inequality and Anxiety Among White Evangelicals by Sarah Diefendorf
English | February 7, 2023 | ISBN: 0520355598, 0520355601 | True PDF | 242 pages | 4.4 MB
Through two years of ethnographic fieldwork at a megachurch, sociologist Sarah Diefendorf investigates the ways in which the evangelical church is working to grow during a time in which cultural shifts are leading young people to leave religion behind. In order to expand, the church has revisited topics long understood as external threats to the organization, such as feminism, gender equality, racial inclusivity, and queer life-topics Diefendorf classifies as the "imagined secular" in the minds of evangelicals.
