On this day, our flag reminds me of the American dream, Each section of this land has a great number of people who love, who have a tale to tell and a tradition of which we may be justly proud and grateful. America is more than the people and the land. It is an ideal, a vislon, and a dream, As the flag flies over our heads the spirit of America abides within our minds and hearts and in the good earth beneath our feet. We can desecrate our flag, hurt America and destroy the dream of our forefathers by eroding the land, polluting the air and water, and by showing ugly prejudice to our fellow Americans. This does not have to be and will not continue if we fully understand and follow the American dream. What is the dream called America? It is composed of a belief in one God, righteous and merciful, unto whom all men are responsible, of the faith of an Abraham who went out not knowing whither he went, of the courage of a Moses who demanded of a tyrant, "Let my people go," of a morality set forth in the Ten Commandments and expanded ill the Sermon on the Mount. In the dream which is called America is the in• sight of ancient prophets who proclaimed that righteousness exalteth a nation and sin is a reproach to any people, who taught men to do justly, love kindness, and walk humbly with their God. In the dream there is the proclamation of angels -• "Peace on earth good will toward men," In it are certain parables of Jesus -- the parable of the Good Samaritan teach• ing charity, and the parable of the talents teaching respon• sibility. In the American dream is the gospel of redemption and victory which makes of no man's sin a finality of doom, but offers salvation and another chance. The message of the Res• urrection is in the dream, quickening men to live and die as immortals. The dream of America is a prayer which pleads, "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven." and proclaims in its doxolgy, "Thine is the Kingdom, and the power and glory, forever. By this dream there shall be justice in the land, no child of the nation shall be damned because of the color of his skin. By this dream there shall be intelligence, each man entering into his heritage of knowledge so far as he is able; by the dream there shall be physical and mental and social health, diseases shall be conquered, and evil prejudice will cease. It is a dream of "government of the people." It is a dream that shall become a glad evangel to the nations, made real by committment and service, "Pure and unadulterated idealism," cries one critically. That is correct. That is part of the genius of America. When idealism dies America will be dead. Getting down to realism and facts, the Federal Bureau of Investigation gives us the statistices which indicate the betrayal of the dream, These are statistics of crime, murder, suicide, sex, delinquency, perversion, gambling and waste.

This document intends to be a performance guide to Miki’s Sohmon III: for Soprano, Marimba and Piano (1988). The first chapter provides an introduction to the composer and his work. It also introduces methods of intercultural and artistic borrowing in the Japanese arts, and it defines the four basic principles of Japanese aesthetics. The second chapter focuses on the interpretation and pronunciation of Sohmon III’s song text.

  • Images of the Pregnant Body and the Unborn Child in England, 1540–C.1680 Rebecca Whiteley*
    Social History of Medicine Vol. 32, No. 2 pp. 241–266 Roy Porter Student Prize Essay Figuring Pictures and Picturing Figures: Images of the Pregnant Body and the Unborn Child in England, 1540–c.1680 Rebecca Whiteley* Summary. Birth figures, or print images of the fetus in the uterus, were immensely popular in mid- wifery and surgical books in Europe in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. But despite their central role in the visual culture of pregnancy and childbirth during this period, very little critical attention has been paid to them. This article seeks to address this dearth by examining birth figures in their cultural context and exploring the various ways in which they may have been used and interpreted by early modern viewers. I argue that, through this process of exploring and contextual- ising early modern birth figures, we can gain a richer and more nuanced understanding of the early modern body, how it was visualised, understood and treated. Keywords: midwifery; childbirth; pregnancy; visual culture; print culture An earnest, cherubic toddler floats in what looks like an inverted glass flask. Accompanied by numerous fellows, each figure demonstrates a different acrobatic pos- ture (Figure 1). These images seem strange to a modern eye: while we might suppose they represent a fetus in utero (which indeed they do), we are troubled by their non- naturalistic style, and perhaps by a feeling that they are rich in a symbolism with which we are not familiar. Their first viewers, in England in the 1540s, might also have found them strange, but in a different way, as these images offered to them an entirely new picture of a bodily interior that was largely understood to be both visually inaccessible and inherently mysterious.

The concept of the work grew out of a particular performance of my Animus II by my dear friend and colleague, the great American mezzo-soprano Jan DeGaetani at the Aspen Colorado Music Festival in 1972. Ms. DeGaetani, who has magnificently performed and recorded several of my works, gave a particularly magical performance that night in which everything that sounded and befell seemed to be the direct result of her will and her powers.

  • The Divine Pymander of Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus the Divine Pymander of Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus an Egyptian Philosopher
    The Divine Pymander of Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus The Divine Pymander of Hermes Mercurius Trismegistus an Egyptian Philosopher In 17 Books translated formerly out of the Arabic into Greek, and thence into Latin, and Dutch, and now out of the Original into English by that Learned Divine Doctor Everard. Printed by Robert White in London in 1650 Judicious Reader, This Book may justly challenge the first place for antiquity, from all of the Books in the World, being written some hundred of years before Moses time, as I shall endeavour to make good. The Original (as far as it is know to us) is Arabic, and several Translations thereof have been published, as Greek, Latin, French, Dutch, etc., but never English before. It is a pity that the Learned Translator [Doctor Everard] is not alive, and received himself, the honour, and thanks due to him from Englishmen; for his good will to, and pains for them, in translating a Book of such infinite worth, out of the Original, into their Mother- tongue. Concerning the Author of the Book itself, Four things are considered, viz His Name, Learning, Country and Time. 1) The name by which he was commonly titled is, Hermes Trismegistus, i.e., Mercurious Ter Maximus, or, The thrice greatest Intelligencer. And well might he be called Hermes, for he was the first Intelligencer in the World (as we read of) that communicated Knowledge to the sons of Men, by Writing, or Engraving. He was called Ter Maximus, for some Reasons, which I shall afterwards mention. 2) His Learning will appear, as by his Works; so by the right understanding the Reason of his Name.

  • Easter Seal #11
    Easter Seal #11 ‘The Quickening Power of God’ Bro. Lee Vayle - June 5, 1991 Shall we pray. Heavenly Father, we’re grateful to be able to come again to Your house, which You’ve so wonderfully provided for us, beyond all expectations and desires. It’s marvelous how You continue to do Your good work amongst us Lord, giving us the Word which is meat in due season, help for this very day in which we live. Now we pray, Lord, You’ll feed our souls tonight by the bread of life, may we understand that which has been given to us by vindication, and we’ll praise Your Name forever. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen. You may be seated. 1. Now we’re into number 11 of Easter Seal which we did not take last Sunday, took a little message that I wanted to bring you, and now we go back of course to this message that Bro. Branham preached in Phoenix, back in ’65. Now having already dealt with the Easter Seal by way of several hours of comments, it should be no problem to recall that according to Bro. Branham what took place at the resurrection of Jesus, and at Pentecost, has been proven to be historically accurate, because the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead is here today, manifesting Itself in the Son of man ministry, which according to Luke 17 precedes the Rapture. Now of course that’s a definitive statement concerning Bro. Branham’s ministry. As the prophet of this hour, Elijah, to the Gentiles, he fulfilled, that is God fulfilled in his ministry, because it would be God, as God is in the prophets and doing all the works.

  • 2032 Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit 1 the CHARGE of the ANGEL NO
    Sermon #2032 Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit 1 THE CHARGE OF THE ANGEL NO. 2032 A SERMON DELIVERED ON LORD’S DAY MORNING, JULY 8, 1888, BY C. H. SPURGEON, AT THE METROPOLITAN TABERNACLE, NEWINGTON. “But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said, Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.” Acts 5:19, 20. THE second persecution of the church, in which all the apostles were put into the common prison, was mainly brought about by the sect of the Sadducees. These, as you know, were the Broad School, the liberals, the advanced thinkers, the modern-thought people of the day. If you want a bitter sneer, a biting sarcasm, or a cruel action, I commend you to these large-minded gentlemen. They are liberal to every- body, except to those who hold the truth, and for those they have a reserve of concentrated bitterness which far excels wormwood and gall. They are so liberal to their brother errorists, that they have no tol- erance to spare for evangelicals. We are expressly told that “the high priest, and all they that were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), were filled with indignation.” That which had been done de- served their admiration, but received their indignation. Such gentlemen as these can be warm at a very short notice, when the doctrine of the cross is spreading, and God the Holy Spirit is bearing witness with signs following. Let them display their indignation; it is according to their nature.

  • Scheherazade
    SCHEHERAZADE The MPC Literary Magazine Issue 4 Scheherazade Scheherazade is the queen of fiction. She married a King who murdered the beautiful women of his domain by first marrying them, and ending their lives on the morning after the wedding. Scheherazade arranged to be married to the King in an attempt to save and preserve the beauty of the kingdom. On the wedding night, after consummation, she woke the King and began to tell him a story about a blue rat and a black cat. She timed her story with the sunrise so that it would not be finished by the time she was to be hung. Captivated by her story, the King granted her a stay of execution until the next day. The story was finished that night, but Scheherazade began a second story that could not be finished by morning, and again the King let her live so that he could hear the end of the story. This went on for 1001 nights. Scheherazade preserved beauty with her stories. Her stories saved her life. The MPC Literary Magazine is named after her, as the writers and poets within are discovering that they have stories within that they want to tell, and by sharing them here they bring a little more beauty into the world.
