Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When did you last encounter a myth Maybe watching a movie, touring a museum or browsing the sci-fi section of your local bookstore To contemporary men and women, myths seem mere relics of a premodern era--legendary stories of capricious gods, heroic deeds and lost cities. The physical and social anxieties that gave rise to myths have been dealt with more productively in our century by science, government and art. Right 'Not at all,' says Philip Sampson. In 6 Modern Myths he shows that all societies, even sophisticated and skeptical societies like ours, nurture myths that distort both science and history to further cultural goals. Such myths are important guides to a society's understanding of itself.How often have you heard the story, for example, of plucky Galileo, armed merely with a telescope and reason, doing battle with a superstitious church only to be condemned as a heretic and harshly imprisoned Even though most of the 'facts' commonly assumed to be true about this story are just not so, the romanticized myth of Galileo boldly marches forward.Sampson dispels this myth and five others--that the rise of Christianity led to ecological crisis, that missionaries have oppressed native peoples, that Darwin's evolutionary ideas were embraced by scientists but vilified by religious leaders, that the church was responsible for persecution of witches, and that Christianity teaches the repression of bodily pleasures--all woven nearly inextricably into the fabric ofChristianity and Western civilization. To tease apart historical fact from cultural fiction Sampson tells different stories, rich in historical detail, fascinating characters and surprising twists. 6 Modern Myths offers you a historical tapestry that unsettles conventional wisdom and provides an enlightening look at the complexities of truth.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explores the religious language of Nonconformity used in ethical debates about animals. It uncovers a rich stream of innovative discourse from the Puritans of the seventeenth century, through the Clapham Sect and Evangelical Revival, to the nineteenth century debates about vivisection. This discourse contributed to law reform and the foundation of the RSPCA, and continues to flavour the way we talk about animal welfare and animal rights today. Shaped by the 'nonconformist conscience', it has been largely overlooked. The more common perception is that Christian 'dominion' authorises the human exploitation of animals, while Enlightenment humanism and Darwinian thought are seen as drawing humans and animals together in one 'family'. This book challenges that perception, and proposes an alternative perspective. Through exploring the shaping of animal advocacy discourses by Biblical themes of creation, fall and restoration, this book reveals the continuing importance of the nonconformist conscience as a source to enrich animal ethics today. It will appeal to the animal studies community, theologians and early modern historians.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book explores how seventeenth-century nonconformist Christian discourse gave animals a voice in public life, challenging dominant anthropocentric narratives. Drawing on historical, theological, and ethical perspectives, Philip J. Sampson traces a subjugated language of resistance that once shaped institutions such as the RSPCA and continues to offer incisive critiques of contemporary practices including hunting, warfare, animal experimentation, and meat consumption. Envisioning creation as song, the book reimagines human-animal relations as co-creative and mutually vulnerable, offering a compelling alternative to both instrumentalist and zoocentric frameworks. Engaging with biblical texts and historical voices, Sampson uncovers a rich tradition of animal advocacy rooted in kindness, sacrifice, and restoration. This interdisciplinary study will appeal to scholars and students in animal ethics, theology, religious studies, and early modern history, as well as practitioners and advocates seeking new ethical resources for contemporary debates. …
