Malraux a été un témoin capital du XXe siècle. La fraternité est au cœur de son œuvre et de sa pensée. Ni philosophe, ni théoricien, encore moins doctrinaire, la fraternité n'est pas une abstraction sentimentale mais une expérience incarnée et une valeur qui témoigne contre le Mal - à défaut de le vaincre. Malraux n'a cessé d'arpenter la région cruciale de l'âme, où le Mal absolu s'oppose à la fraternité. De l'Indochine des années vingt à l'intellectuel engagé contre le fascisme, de la guerre d'Espagne à la découverte du légendaire national qu'incarnèrent à ses yeux la Résistance et le gaullisme, à travers son œuvre et ses combats, Malraux a approfondi le sens d'une fraternité affrontée à l'humiliation et au Destin. Il en a cherché les domaines électifs que constituèrent les mythes, l'art, la culture et les religions. Le présent essai s'attache à restituer et à éclairer la place centrale de la valeur de la fraternité dans l'œuvre de Malraux et à en révéler (le sens premier d'apocalypse) les implications politiques et philosophiques.

Commonwealth scholarships began in 1959. They have since moved over 30,000 people across borders, launching them into influence as politicians, poets, painters, professors - and the rest. Their stories illuminate the sociology and politics of higher education, of the Commonwealth, and of its member countries: they include the last scholar before apartheid took South Africa out of the Commonwealth, who became a high court judge, and the first after it came back, now a vice-chancellor. The second edition of this book, revised and updated since it was first published to mark the scholarships' jub

Spiritual formation occurs primarily in the context of community. But as the modern cultural norm of what social scientists call "radical American individualism" extends itself, many Christians grow lax in their relational accountability to the church. Faith threatens to become an "I" not "us," a "my God" not "our God" concern.When the Church Was a Family calls believers back to the wisdom of the first century, examining the early Christian church from a sociohistorical perspective and applying the findings to the evangelical church in America today. With confidence, author Joseph Hellerman writes intentionally to traditional church leaders and emerging church visionaries alike, believing what is detailed here about Jesus' original vision for authentic Christian community will deeply satisfy the relational longings of both audiences.

With over four million copies in print, Paramahansa Yogananda's autobiography has served as a gateway into yoga and alternative spirituality for North American practitioners since 1946. Balancing traditional yoga, metaphysical spirituality, and a flair for the stage, Yogananda inspired countless people to practice Yogoda, his own brand of yoga. His method combined the spiritual and superhuman aspirations of Indian traditions with the health-oriented sensibilities of Western practice. Because the Yogoda program does not rely on recognizable postures and poses, it has remained under the radar of yoga scholarship. Biography of a Yogi examines Yogananda's career and Yogoda in the wider context of the development of yoga in the twentieth century. Focusing on Yogis during this early period of transnational popularization, Foxen highlights the continuities in the concept of the Yogi as superhuman and traces the transformation of yoga from a holistic and spiritual practice to its present-day postural practice.
