Trade paperback. Condizione: Very good. Second Printing [stated]. xxviii, [10], 250, [2] pages. Sticker residue on back cover. An extraordinary memoir by a survivor of the Nazi camps, Yves Béon. Planet Dora is a recollection of life and death in a concentration camp like no other. Dora was a cavernous underground factory cut out of solid rock, where thousands of prisoners beaten, starved, killed, and living underground for weeks at a time. The purpose of all this brutality was to build the world's first operational rockets: the V-1 and V-2 missiles, Hitler's vengeance weapons. Some of Germany's most brilliant engineers were involved with production at Dora, including Werner von Braun, who after the war went on to become the father of the American space program. It was his Saturn V rocket, designed with the help of his wartime comrades, that put the first man on the moon; while the Saturn V project was headed by the same man who had been the director of slave labor in Dora. In fact, some of the very rockets built in Dora were packed up after the war and shipped to New Mexico to serve as the seeds of the U.S. space program. The greatest technological achievement of the twentieth century had its origins in the enslavement and murder of thousands of innocent people, the down payment of a Faustian bargain that still tarnishes the foundation of our reach for the stars. Yves Beon, a slave laborer forced to build V1 and V2 rockets, discusses his former German masters who went on to run the NASA space project. A memoir by Yves Beon, a 71-year-old retired shipping merchant from Brittany, is about to challenge one of the United States' most powerful myths - the glorious record of a national space program that reaches to the stars and put man on the moon. The American edition of his book is a raw account of death and survival in the Dora concentration camp. In the 20 months before it was liberated, an estimated 20,000 prisoners drafted in from nearby Buchenwald perished in atrocious conditions at the underground Mittelbau-Dora camp, the only SS camp formed explicitly for weapons production. The V2's technical director, SS officer Wernher von Braun, led the Saturn booster programme for NASA. From Dora, where a third of inmates died of disease, exhaustion or were brutally killed, von Braun visited Buchenwald to select more inmates to work on the ballistic missile. Arthur Rudolph, production manager at Dora and Nazi party member as early as 1931, became manager of the Saturn V launch vehicle. He finally fled back to Germany rather than face a denaturalization hearing in the US in 1984. Michael Neufeld, curator of world war two history at the National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution, has written that Rudolph "was not just the manager of slave labor but also an advocate of it". Another former SS member, Kurt Debus, was director of the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. The whitewashing of the Nazi issue continued long after the official end of Operation Paperclip. In his introduction to Planet Dora, Neufeld explains how an East German expose of von Braun's SS record and links to Dora in the early 1960s were ignored by the US press. "Only the efforts of French and Belgian Dora survivors in the late 1960s and 1970s brought this suppressed history back to light,'' he writes. Beon is discovering how different the perspective can be across the Atlantic. "The American edition of Planet Dora uses the word Nazis throughout - I only used Germans because that is who I was fighting. The US entered the war to fight the Nazis,'' he says. "On the jacket, they call the book a memoir of the Holocaust. Here, that means the mass murder of Jews - perhaps it's broader in the US." At Dora, there were no Jews as such, says Beon, who was imprisoned for activities in the French Resistance. But the biggest gulf is that between Beon's view of Dora scientists and the American view of the same men. "Our Dora prisoners' association has fought constantly but it's difficult because von Braun is a hero in the US - I went. Alvin Gilens (Cover Art) (illustratore).…

Paperback. Condizione: New. The role of human sacrifice in the ancient Mediterranean world and its implications continue to be topics that fire the popular imagination and engender scholarly discussion and controversy. This volume provides balanced and judicious treatments of the various facets of these topics from a cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural perspective. It provides nuanced examinations of ancient ritual, exploring the various meanings that human sacrifice held for antiquity, and examines its varied repercussions up into the modern world. The book explores evidence to shed new light on the origins of the rite, to whom these sacrifices were offered, and by whom they were performed. It presents fresh insights into the social and religious meanings of this practice in its varied biblical landscape and ancient contexts, and demonstrates how human sacrifice has captured the imagination of later writers who have employed it in diverse cultural and theological discourses to convey their own views and ideologies. It provides valuable perspectives for understanding key cultural, theological and ideological dimensions, such as the sacrifice of Christ, scapegoating,self-sacrifice and martyrdom in post-biblical and modern times.…

Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El Nuevo Testamento es una obra de gran importancia en la cultura occidental, pero a menudo resulta poco accesible para los estudiantes por las enormes diferencias entre el mundo moderno y el antiguo mundo mediterráneo en que fue escrito. Para poder entender y apreciar plenamente los libros que conforman el Nuevo Testamento, es absolutamente necesario desarrollar un entendimiento transcultural de los valores de aquella sociedad mediterránea de la que surgieron. Dietmar Neufeld y Richard E. DeMaris han logrado reunir a biblistas con conocimientos de ciencias sociales con el fin de desarrollar modelos interpretativos que permitan entender conceptos como colectivismo, parentesco, memoria, etnicidad y honor para mostrar cómo aplicar esos modelos a los textos neotestamentarios. El parentesco es ilustrado con el análisis de la Sagrada Familia así como de las primeras organizaciones cristianas; el género, con el estudio de las ideas de Pablo sobre la mujer; y el paisaje y la espacialidad, con una exposición sobre Jesús de Nazaret. Este libro es el compañero ideal para el estudio del Nuevo Testamento. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condizione: New. The New Testament is a book of great significance in Western culture yet is often inaccessible to students because the modern world differs so significantly from the ancient Mediterranean one in which it was written. It is imperative to develop a cross-cultural understanding of the values of the ancient Mediterranean society from which the New Testament arose in order to fully appreciate the documents and the communities that they represent.Dietmar Neufeld and Richard E. DeMaris bring together biblical scholars with expertise in the social sciences to develop interpretative models for understanding such values as collectivism, kinship, memory, ethnicity, and honour, and to demonstrate how to apply these models to the New Testament texts. Kinship is illuminated by analysis of the Holy Family as well as to early Christian organisations; gender through a study of Paul's view of women; and landscape and spatiality through a discussion of Jesus of Nazareth. This book is the ideal companion to study of the New Testament.…
