From the internationally bestselling author of The Disappeared comes a profound meditation on the cultural impact of storytelling and testimony in five intimate and illuminating essays. In this moving collection, critically acclaimed novelist Kim Echlin examines how we turn to literature to measure our lives against the darknesses of our time. Tell Others explores how literature resists silencing and repression with truth and imagination. Echlin skillfully blends her lived experience in different parts of the world—teaching in post-revolutionary China, researching war crimes in the former Yugoslavia, studying under one of Canada’s most respected Elders, Basil H. Johnston—with wide-ranging reading that offers solace and highlights the possibility to transform outrage into understanding and resistance. Looking to her favourite writers—Milan Kundera, Salman Rushdie, Ma Jian, Toni Morrison, Margaret Atwood, and Haruki Murakami, to name a few—Echlin grapples in fresh ways with tyranny, war, sexual violence, and censorship to bear witness to the past and look to the future. Written in characteristically unsparing and evocative prose, Tell Others is an invitation to all readers to acknowledge histories that are difficult to see and to make meaning from the stories that buried bones tell. The author proceeds for this book will be donated to PEN Canada and PEN International.

His Spiritual and Intellectual Formation

Timothy Keller, Updated and Expanded Edition

Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Neuen Testament 2. Reihe

Few passages in the New Testament have provoked as much debate as the pericope of the woman caught in adultery (John 7:53-8:11). Rejected by some as spurious and regarded by others as problematic, it has often been silenced by questions of authenticity. Onyekachi Ugwu reopens the discussion by applying narrative analysis supported by socio-historical criticism. His study situates the episode within the literary and theological structure of the Gospel of John, demonstrating that it resonates deeply with the Gospel's central motifs. The woman placed before her accusers becomes a symbolic figure for Jesus himself - both stand in the middle, both face judgment, and both reveal the failure of human justice. The author argues that the narrative was transmitted orally and later incorporated by Johannine scribes in full consistency with their theological outlook. Through this perspective, the pericope emerges as an integral part of the Gospel's portrayal of conflict between light and darkness. Rather than a textual anomaly, it is a scene of revelation: a moment where divine mercy confronts human hypocrisy and anticipates the triumph of the cross.

The Woman Caught in Adultery and the Gospel of John

Most people think a great life is built on big moments. It isn't. A great life is built on small decisions made consistently over time. A missed priority here. A neglected relationship there. Too much pressure. Too little margin. Over time, those small choices quietly shape the direction of a life. But there is another way to live. After decades of leadership, raising a family, and helping people navigate life's biggest decisions, Chris Hodges discovered something that changes everything: The quality of your life is determined by the principles that guide it. Principles simplify decisions. Principles steady you in difficult seasons. Principles help you build a life that lasts. &nbsp;In Legacy Letters, a practical and deeply personal book, Hodges shares the timeless principles that have shaped his life, leadership, relationships, and legacy. These aren't theories or motivational slogans. They are lessons learned through real life-through mentors, mistakes, family, and decades of walking alongside people through the highs and lows of life. This book is designed to be read one principle a day for 30 days, giving you a clear framework for building a better life. Then you'll spend the rest of the year putting those principles into practice-because principles are not meant to be memorized, they are meant to be lived. Inside, you'll discover powerful principles such as:The Big Rocks Principle - start life right by putting first things firstThe Calendar Principle - take control of your schedule before something else doesThe Compounding Principle - small daily disciplines create extraordinary results over timeThe Margin Principle - create breathing room so pressure doesn't control your lifeThe Who Principle - the people around you shape the future ahead of youThe Green-Grass Principle - the best relationships are the ones you invest inThe Goldmine Principle - learn to see the potential in peopleThe Orchestra Principle - life works better when it's built around "we" instead ofThe Significance Principle - the greatest life is the one that helps others win&nbsp;Filled with memorable phrases, practical wisdom, and honest stories from a life of leadership, Legacy Letters will help you:Make wiser decisionsBuild stronger relationshipsCreate margin and clarity in a crowded worldFocus your time on what matters mostLeave a legacy that lasts&nbsp;Because methods change. Trends change. Circumstances change. But principles never do. Live by the right principles, and you won't just succeed. You'll build a life that truly works.

The world is chaotic. But that doesn't mean your life has to be. Join Chris Hodges, bestselling author and beloved founding pastor of Church of the Highlands, on a dynamic journey into practical wisdom that has the power to transform your life

Timeless Principles I Learned, Lived, and Leave Behind

Legacy Letters

Semiotics, Communication and Cognition

There are many theories of meaning. Most of them are descriptive and do not answer the question of what meaning is and how and why it arises. This book answers these questions. To paraphrase Leibniz's famous phrase, it asks why there is meaning rather than nothing. Its originality lies in showing that meaning comes from the senses, and so it emphasises the bodiliness of semiosis, making use of advances in the cognitive sciences, in a unified theoretical framework in which meaning emerges from the physical world. This all-encompassing vision has been made possible because the author - who is not an isolated person but a collective - has a long history of interdisciplinary work.&nbsp;Groupe µ is a leading research team based at the University of Liège (Belgium). For over fifty years, it has been at the forefront of transdisciplinary work in rhetoric, semiotics and the theory of communication, whether linguistic or visual. From Rhétorique Générale (1970), a classic translated into some twenty languages and hailed by the journal Sciences humaines as one of the most important books of the twentieth century, to Nouveau traité du signe visuel (2026), which provides a general grammar of the image, whether figurative or not, its collectively authored works have all represented decisive advances for these disciplines.

Auf der Suche - Özlem begegnet Jesus

'What a beautiful book, it's like a hug, or a gentle holding of a hand' MICHAELA COEL 'As disarming as it is gripping, The Recovery House is a fluid, bruised and beautiful brooch of a book' INUA ELLAMS'The Recovery House is a work of the soul. It's some of the most earnest, beautiful writing I've come across in years' JO HAMYA'So rich, emotional and wise, distilling it all into a finely textured work of tenderness, love, camaraderie and human resilience' COURTTIA NEWLAND 'I was deeply moved... each vignette feels like a small gift, told in a voice that will linger with me' SOPHIE MACKINTOSH'There are writers who both survive things and understand them. Brutal, precise, and full of light' YRSA DALEY-WARD 'I loved this beautiful book' SARAH BERNSTEIN A Granta Best Young British Novelist Jamal, a gifted and introspective young poet, wakes in a quiet, claustrophobic recovery house after a devastating mental breakdown, unsure how the bright edges of his life became so fractured. In this stark yet strangely tender sanctuary, with its watchful nurses, restless corridors and overlooked garden, he encounters several wounded, but radiant souls who are each wrestling with their own invisible storms. As Jamal navigates this suspended world, at once suffocating and strangely sacred, he begins to observe rather than retreat, finding in the rhythms of shared cigarettes, half-finished conversations and midnight confessions a hesitant, flickering sense of belonging.Within these intimate, volatile walls, music drifts like prayer. A song sung into the dark becomes a fragile lifeline. Psalms are read aloud with trembling conviction. Laughter erupts, unexpected and defiant. Jamal's searching, philosophical mind moves restlessly between memory and imagination, literature and scripture, doubt and devotion, interrogating the porous boundaries between illness and inspiration. What does it mean to hear a voice and call it God, or art, or madness? What is salvation in a place built to contain collapse? In the charged silence of the garden, under watchful skies, he begins to sense that joy can exist even here, braided through grief, carried on melody, sustained by human touch. Tender, intelligent and spiritually inquisitive, The Recovery House is a novel about the music that survives inside us when language falters, about the redemptive possibilities of friendship, and about the delicate courage required to rebuild a self. As Jamal reckons with love, faith, shame and the perilous seduction of turning life into art, he is forced to confront the most difficult question of all: how to live honestly in the world without sacrificing the soul that makes him want to write it.'A compelling and deeply engaging read' DANIEL LAWRENCE TAYLOR 'I loved it' KRYSTELLE BAMFORD 'The Recovery House is a masterclass in storytelling. I was mesmerised from start to finish... I've never read anything like it and I don't think I ever will. The Recovery House is perfect' ORE AGBAJE-WILLIAMS 'A prescient novel, which captures very powerfully the surreal space and mundane routines of an institution. Owusu has drawn that desolate situation so poignantly' SARA BAUME 'An impressively vulnerable novel - I read it in one sitting and immediately went back to page one to read it again' VARAIDZO 'Derek Owusu is the real deal, and The Recovery House is his best work yet' KEIRAN GODDARD 'The Recovery House is brimming with tenderness' ROZIE KELLY

The Recovery House

The epic fantasy sequence continues with the new book from the bestselling author of Gardens of the Moon.A goddess awakens to a new world, only to find that some things never change.Amidst the ashes of a failed rebellion in Seven Cities, new embers are flaring to life.There are furrowed brows at the beleaguered Malazan Legion headquarters in G'danisban for it would appear that yet another bloody clash with the revived cult of the Apocalyptic is coming to a head.Seeking to crush the uprising before it ignites the entire subcontinent, Fist Arenfall has only a few dozen squads of marines at his disposal, and many of those are already dispersed - endeavouring to stamp out multiple brush-fires of dissent. But his soldiers are exhausted, worn down by the grind of a simmering insurrection and the last thing Arenfall needs is the arrival of the new Adjunct, fresh from the capital and the Emperor's side.The man's mission may be to lend support to Arenfall's efforts . . . or stick a knife in his back. 'Twas ever thus, of course. That a popular commander should inevitably be seen as a threat to the Emperor - such is the fatal nature of imperial Malazan politics.And what of the gods? Well, as recent history has proved, their solution to any mortal mess is to make it even messier. In other words, it's just another tumultuous day in the chequered history of the Malazan Empire.Acclaim for The God is Not Willing: 'Awe-inspiring. Prepare to fall in love with epic fantasy all over again.' ANNA SMITH SPARK, author of The Court of Broken Knives'As good as I expected it to be . . . Erikson continues to showcase his talents as an impressive wordsmith . . . mesmerising and memorable. Add to this intense battles, witty banter, advanced warfare, new curses, new gods, and escapades with warrens and this world's supernatural and you'll see why I had such a good time.' GRIMDARK magazine'It is beautiful, it is captivating and utterly enthralling . . . Erikson is unparalleled in both the scope of his imagination and the talent of his prose, but more importantly, he is as insightful and funny as Terry Pratchett ever was.' FANTASY BOOK REVIEW'Erikson at the top of his game, a lean, sharply honed and powerful addition to what is already in my mind the pre-eminent fantasy universe of the last few decades.' TOR.COM'Determined, focused, well-paced and immensely rich novel of war, peace, hubris, consequence, sorcery and compassion . . . this is Erikson bringing his A-game, turned up to 11, and delivering what is comfortably one of his three or four best novels to date.' THE WERTZONE'Could be Erikson's most accessible novel to date . . . a must for all Malazan fans.' FANTASY HOTLIST'Erikson burnishes his reputation as a superior epic fantasy world-builder . . . a treat both for his returning readers and lovers of George R.R. Martin-style epic fantasy who have yet to discover his work.' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY *starred review
