God : an anatomy / by Stavrakopoulou, Francesca,author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 501-542) and index.Dissecting the divine -- Grounded -- Footloose -- Sensational feet -- Cover up -- Phallic masculinities -- Perfecting the penis -- Divine sex -- Back and beyond -- Inside out -- From belly to bowel -- Handedness -- Arm's reach -- Divine touch -- Holy handbooks -- Face to face -- Headstrong beauty -- Profile -- Sense and sensitivity -- Gasp and gulp -- An autopsy."An astonishing and revelatory history that re-presents God as he was originally envisioned by ancient worshippers--with a distinctly male body, and with superhuman powers, earthly passions, and a penchant for the fantastic and monstrous. The scholarship of theology and religion teaches us that the God of the Bible was without a body, only revealing himself in the Old Testament in words mysteriously uttered through his prophets, and in the New Testament in the body of Christ. The portrayal of God as corporeal and masculine is seen as merely metaphorical, figurative, or poetic. But, in this revelatory study, Francesca Stavrakopoulou presents a vividly corporeal image of God: a human-shaped deity who walks and talks and weeps and laughs, who eats, sleeps, feels, and breathes, and who is undeniably male. Here is a portrait--arrived at through the author's close examination of and research into the Bible--of a god in ancient myths and rituals who was a product of a particular society, at a particular time, made in the image of the people who lived then, shaped by their own circumstances and experience of the world. From head to toe--and every part of the body in between--this is a god of stunning surprise and complexity, one we have never encountered before"--

Born in the U.S.A. : Bruce Springsteen in American life / by Cullen, Jim,1962-author.(CARDINAL)208862;
Includes bibliographical references and index.A Springsteen Chronology -- Introduction -- Republicans and republicans : Reagan and Springsteen at Center Stage -- democratic Character : Springsteen and the American Artistic Tradition -- Realms of Kings : Springsteen and the American Dream -- Borne in the U.S.A. : Springsteen and the Weight of War -- The Good Life : Springsteen's Play Ethic -- Man's Job : Springsteen's Masculinity -- God and Bruce Springsteen -- Conclusion."When it was first published in 1997, while Jim Cullen was teaching at Harvard, Born in the U.S.A. was the first scholarly treatment of Bruce Springsteen's work. Moving beyond the journalistic and biographical approaches that have dominated the subject then and ever since, Cullen situated the Puritans to Martin Luther King, showing how he absorbed, refracted and revitalized American mythology, including the American Dream, the work ethic, and the long quest for racial justice. He revealed Springsteen as both a democrat and a republican-lower case d and r- and a patriot dedicated decrying the lapses of a country he loves. This third edition of Born in the U.S.A. is fully revised and updated, incorporating discussion of Springsteen's wide output in the 21st century. For any serious Springsteen fan-or anyone who ever wondered what all the fuss was about-this book remains the definitive study"--
