This book explores the motif of the spiritual journey and its evolution in Western literature. A spiritual journey can be broadly defined as a search for the divine. Such a search can occur either internally as a psychological process or in some cases may involve an actual geographic journey. Spiritual journeys can be conducted by individuals or groups. In exploring this topic, various kinds of texts will be reviewed, including autobiographies, novels, and short stories, as well as myths, folktales, and mystical writings. The book classifies spiritual journey narratives into four categories: theological journeys, mystical journeys, mythopoetic journeys and allegorical journeys. Representative texts have been selected in the history of Western religious literature that illustrate the basic features of each of these four categories.

Dr. Emeka Geoffrey Olisa recounts a life lived against the contrasting backdrops of Africa, Europe and America. Between Three Worlds opens with a brief historical overview of Ossomala?s royal heritage?while ?some part of my family history has remained in oral form for more than 400 years,? as Dr. Olisa notes, no written history has existed in a comprehensive form until now.His own story begins with his birth during the period of Indirect Rule of Nigeria by Britain. Following an African childhood full of adventures and encounters with interesting people, Dr. Olisa travelled to the United Kingdom as a young man determined to study medicine. This proved to be a choice initially fraught with difficulties, including cultural barriers, for him to overcome. Dr. Olisa documents his experiences in Great Britain and at Rockwell College in Ireland, along with academic progress at such prominent universities as Gottingen and Hamburg, in Germany, and at Cambridge, England.During the 1970s, Dr. Olisa worked as a medical officer and pathologist before becoming a professor in the United States. Eventually he returned to his native Nigeria, achieving influence as a Foundation Professor at the University of Jos, and Head of Pathology at the University of Benin.Between Three Worlds provides a remarkable examination of the similarities and differences between African, European and American culture, and will be of interest to the ?average? reader as much as to students of African history. This richly illustrated record is written in honour of Dr. Olisa?s father, His Royal Highness Nzedegwu II of Ossomala, who left this world and joined his ancestors not long before this book was sent to press.

Few discussions in modern social science have occupied as much attention as the changing nature of welfare states in western societies. Gosta Esping-Andersen, one of the most distinguished contributors to current debates on this issue, here provides a new analysis of the character and role of welfare states in the functioning of contemporary advanced western societies. Esping-Andersen distinguishes several major types of welfare state, connecting these with variations in the historical development of different western countries. Current economic processes, the author argues, such as those moving towards a post-industrial order, are not shaped by autonomous market forces but by the nature of states and state differences. Fully informed by comparative materials, this book will have great appeal to everyone working on issues of economic development and post-industrialism. Its audience will include students and academics in sociology, economics and politics.

In the late fifteenth century, many of the Jews expelled from Spain made their way to Morocco and established a dynamic community in Fez. A number of Jewish families became prominent in commerce and public life there. Among the Jews of Fez of Hispanic origin was Samuel Pallache, who served the Moroccan sultan as a commercial and diplomatic agent in Holland until Pallache's death in 1616. Before that, he had tried to return with his family to Spain, and to this end he tried to convert to Catholicism and worked as an informer, intermediary, and spy in Moroccan affairs for the Spanish court. Later he became a privateer against Spanish ships and was tried in London for that reason. His religious identity proved to be as mutable as his political allegiances: when in Amsterdam, he was devoutly Jewish; when in Spain, a loyal converso (a baptized Jew). In A Man of Three Worlds, Mercedes García-Arenal and Gerard Wiegers view Samuel Pallache's world as a microcosm of early modern society, one far more interconnected, cosmopolitan, and fluid than is often portrayed. Pallache's missions and misadventures took him from Islamic Fez and Catholic Spain to Protestant England and Holland. Through these travels, the authors explore the workings of the Moroccan sultanate and the Spanish court, the Jewish communities of Fez and Amsterdam, and details of the Atlantic-Mediterranean trade. At once a sweeping view of two continents, three faiths, and five nation-states and an intimate story of one man's remarkable life, A Man of Three Worlds is history at its most compelling.
