Ritual Innovation in the Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism
Are the rituals in the Hebrew Bible of great antiquity, practiced unchanged from earliest times, or are they the products of later innovators? The canonical text is clear: ritual innovation is repudiated as when Jeroboam I of Israel inaugurate a novel cult at Bethel and Dan. Most rituals are traced back to Moses. From Julius Wellhausen to Jacob Milgrom, this issue has divided critical scholarship. With the rich documentation from the late Second Temple period, such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, it is apparent that rituals were changed. Were such rituals practiced, or were they forms of textual imagination? How do rituals change and how are such changes authorized? Do textual innovation and ritual innovation relate? What light might ritual changes between the Hebrew Bible and late Second Temple texts shed on the history of ritual in the Hebrew Bible? The essays in this volume engage the various issues that arise when rituals are considered as practices that may be invented and subject to change. A number of essays examine how biblical texts show evidence of changing ritual practices, some use textual change to discuss related changes in ritual practice, while others discuss evidence for ritual change from material culture.

David Lynch : someone is in my house
\"David Lynch is best known for his work as a filmmaker, directing some of the most iconic movies in American history. His output as a visual artist is less widely known. This revelatory book brings together some of the most striking examples of Lynch's paintings, drawings, photographs, installations, film stills, and sculptures. Many of these works reveal the dark underpinnings behind Lynch's often macabre films and television series. Others explore his fascination with texture and collage. Edited by Stijn Huijts and introduced by David Lynch's biographer, Krinstine McKenna, along with insightful texts by Michael Chabon and Petra Giloy-Hirtz. This book reveals an unexplored facet of Lynch's oeuvre and affirms that he is as brilliant a visual artist as he is a filmmaker.\" --publisher's description, lower cover.

Hitler and film : the Fèuhrer's hidden passion
\"An expose of Hitler's relationship with film and his influence on the film industry. A presence in Third Reich cinema, Adolf Hitler also personally financed, ordered, and censored films and newsreels and engaged in complex relationships with their stars and directors. Here, Bill Niven offers a powerful argument for reconsidering Hitler's fascination with film as a means to further the Nazi agenda. In this first English-language work to fully explore Hitler's influence on and relationship with film in Nazi Germany, the author calls on a broad array of archival sources. Arguing that Hitler was as central to the Nazi film industry as Goebbels, Niven also explores Hitler's representation in Third Reich cinema, personally and through films focusing on historical figures with whom he was associated, and how Hitler's vision for the medium went far beyond \"straight propaganda.\" He aimed to raise documentary film to a powerful art form rivaling architecture in its ability to reach the masses\"-- Provided by publisher.

Sin is a Person: Some Ontological Metaphors in the Bible
This article discusses the ontological metaphors relating to the personification of sin in the Bible. It aims to explore the metaphorical conceptualisation of sin as a person, as suggested in the sin expressions. Lakoff and Johnson’s (1980) Conceptual Metaphor Theory is used in analysing the data. The findings of the study indicate that sin is conceptualised as king, master, lord, paymaster, mother, and child. The use of these conceptual metaphors indicates that the writers of the selected biblical texts intended to project a deeper meaning of sin beyond the literal meaning of sin in daily language. The ontological metaphorical use of sin in the Bible seems to give a greater effect in comprehension to the reader of the texts.
