Simone Weil's supernaturalist interpretations of tragedy challenge not only the philosophical skepticism but also the religious rationalism characteristic of the modern age. This book boldly points out a supernaturalist alternative to contemporary, post-structuralist literary theory. This study of classical tragic drama offers a sacralizing impetus to secular discussions of literature. The book's Platonic premises and its grounding in the transcendental outlook of the religious traditions furnish a sacred illumination. Religious mystery and the cross of Christ both overshadow and deepen philosophical approaches to literary criticism, including theories of tragedy. Simone Weil's conception of tragic art, rooted in a mystical Christian metaphysics, offers original insight into the nature of tragedy. In contradiction of the prevailing secular outlook, Weil regards classical tragedy as a sacred art form. Tragic masterpieces evoke not the chaotic or irrational, as modernist interpreters hold, but rather a good which is absolute

Where did her Father get his choice of a name? Everyone just assumed it was because he loved operas and named her after the Spanish gypsy in "Carmen." As she matured into a stunningly beautiful young girl with an olive complexion, dark hair and dark eyes, she resembled more of the Hispanic race than her Caucasian ancestry. Her lack of identity in early childhood combined with the rejection and abuse from her family of origin, led Carmyn to believe that the "y" in her name was the beginning of her feeling like a misplaced "why" in life. After a failed suicide attempt at age thirteen, Carmyn sought to find the answers to the untold many "whys" in her life. A dramatic conclusion weaves the past with the present and shines with the compelling truth and hope that only God can bring light out of darkness. Her redemption is found veiled in the symbolism of roses, the love of an unforgettable caretaker named Rosetta, and a divine revelation from God that ultimately transforms her tragedies into triumphs.

The historical tragedy entitled âRisk: a Battle for Redemptionâ is based on very famous Jewish legend "Maaseh Norah shel Rabbi Yosef de la Reina" (A terrible case of R. Joseph de la Reina [Joseph of the queen]) which is known in at least two Hebrew versions since the beginning of the 16 century. This story was early translated into Ladino and Yiddish. One of the editions of the early Yiddish popular version was published by Shneur Zalman Rubashov (Zalman Shazar), the third president of Israel. About one of the older Hebrew versions, that of R. Abraham ben Eliezer ha-Levi, Gershon Scholem, a renowned scholar of Cabbala, published an article. Some of former students of the latter included the topic of this legend in their research works. The said legend was very popular in Jewish milieu; it was printed and reprinted many times and in many languages. A Terrible Case of R. Joseph de la Reina attracted also attention of some Hebrew and Yiddish poets, including Shmuel Yosef Agnon, receiver of Nobel price for literature, and writers who based their poems, stories, and dramas on the legend usually closely following the original story. It is up to readers to see the differences in the interpretation of the story. The present author of the Risk: a Battle for Redemption does not follow slavishly the folkloric story. He tries to intertwine it into the frame of Jewish history of Christian Spain in the second part of the 15th century, just before the final expulsion of the Jews. Some historical events are featured here, as well as several major historical figures are characters in the play (Christian kings, Ferdinand and Isabella, Thomas de Torquemada, Don Abraham Senior, Don Meir Melamed, Don Isaac Abarbanel, etc., others are just mentioned, as well as literary works of Spanish Jews and Christians). The play uses also some opinions of the famous cabbalists of Safed (Tsfat) about the causes which brought the Christian kings to decision to expel the Jews. They blamed Rabbi Joseph della Reina, the protagonist of the present tragedy, and stated that his preoccupation with magic was the main cause of the final expulsion of the Jews from Spanish lands in 1492.

Elizabeth Fahn-Weedor was born in Liberia into a Muslim family, but she later became a Christian. She fled her home country and traveled to the Ivory Coast, where she lived for three and a half years as a refugee due to one of Africa’s bloodiest and brutal civil wars. This civil war led to her toddler daughter coming close to death and being saved, through a miracle, in the killing fields. This experience left Elizabeth holding on tightly for dear life to her faith in God and being granted strength she had never known before. Faith in Christ would bring redemption for Elizabeth and her family as they went through the painful fire of suffering and separation from loved ones who were still stranded in Liberia and as they escaped into a new life filled with many challenges in the United States. Elizabeth later served as a missionary in Ethiopia for four and a half years with her husband Anthony Weedor and their four children. Because she grew up in a culture that did not believe and encourage the education of girls, Elizabeth got her early education through the courageous and financial assistance of her dearest grandmother, who stood fearlessly against a male-dominant society to make education a priority for her granddaughters. Today, Elizabeth is benefiting from her grandmother’s determination to give a girl an education. As a result of her grandmother’s bold stance on impacting women in her culture, Elizabeth is determined to do likewise for girls and women who find themselves in similar traditional practices and worldviews, not forgetting violence against women. Elizabeth continues to serve in missions with her husband, Anthony, who is Africa’s desk director at Advancing Native Missions, based in Afton, Virginia.

A Philosophy Of Tragedy written by Christopher Hamilton and has been published by Reaktion Books this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016-04-15 with Philosophy categories.

A Philosophy of Tragedy explores the tragic condition of man in modernity. Nietzsche knew it, but so have countless characters in literature: that the modern age places us squarely before the reflection of our own tragic condition, our existence characterized by utmost contingency, homelessness, instability, unredeemed suffering, and broken morality. Christopher Hamilton examines the works of philosophers, writers, and playwrights to offer a stirring account of our tragic condition, one that explores the nature of philosophy and the ways it has understood itself and its role to mankind. Ranging from the debate over the death of the tragedy to a critique of modern virtue ethics, from a new interpretation of the evil of Auschwitz to a look at those who have seen our tragic state as inherently inconsolable, he shows that tragedy has been a crucial part of the modern human experience, one from which we shouldn’t avert our eyes.
