Название:American Transcendentalism and Asian Religions (Religion in America)
Автор: Arthur Versluis
Издательство: New York : Oxford University Press,
Год: 1993
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 364
Для сайта: Mirknig.su
Размер: 26 MB
Язык: English
The first major study since the 1930s of the relationship between American Transcendentalism and Asian religions, and the first comprehensive work to include post-Civil War Transcendentalists like Samuel Johnson, this book is encyclopedic in scope. Beginning with the inception of Transcendentalist Orientalism in Europe, Versluis covers the entire history of American Transcendentalism into the twentieth century, and the profound influence of Orientalism on the movement--including its analogues and influences in world religious dialogue. He examines what he calls "positive Orientalism," which recognizes the value and perennial truths in Asian religions and cultures, not only in the writings of major figures like Thoreau and Emerson, but also in contemporary popular magazines.

Издательство: Beacon Press
Год: 1971
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 764
Для сайта: Mirknig.su
Размер: 61 MB
Язык: English
Late in June 1971, when the Federal Government had succeeded in delaying the publication of even newspaper synopses and brief excerpts from the secret Pentagon Papers, Senator Mike Gravel convened a special meeting of his Subcommittee on Public Buildings and Grounds. The Senator had recently received 4,100 pages of the Papers, and on the night of June 29, at that extraordinary meeting, he entered them into the official record of the subcommittee.
That record is published here for the first time, in order that the American public can have access to the full story of American involvement in Vietnam from early 1940s to March of 1968.
