Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a thought-provoking exploration of the complex relationship between the historical Jesus and the Christ of faith. The author argues that these two figures are not mutually exclusive, but rather represent different aspects of the same person. The book delves into the historical context of Jesus' life and teachings, and examines the development of Christian beliefs about his divinity. The author also explores the ways in which the figure of Christ has been interpreted and reinterpreted throughout history. This book offers a fresh perspective on one of the most enduring and controversial figures in religious history, and is essential reading for anyone interested in the origins of Christianity and the nature of faith. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. …

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Jaquette. in-8 br. (15,5 x 24), III-436 p., N° spécial de janvier-avril 1998 de la revue Population, introduction de Patrick Festy, tableaux, graphiques, cartes, jaquette, état de neuf. Peut-on connaître la population sans recourir à l'histoire ? L'étude des populations, actuelles ou passées, impose la critique des sources, l'examen de la production des données et l'analyse des débats intellectuels qui l'ont accompagnée. L'ensemble de ces approches historiques est l'objet de ce volume, dédié à Jean-Noël Biraben, Jacqueline Hecht et Jacques Houdaille. Les sources appellent de nouvelles investigations du fait de leur grande ancienneté, comme pour la France des XVIè et XVIIè siècles, et d'une meilleure connaissance du travail administratif, par exemple l'Empire ottoman au XIXè siècle. Ainsi les historiens savent maintenant comprendre un procédé de dénombrement oublié : les quipus précolombiens. Trois articles sont consacrés à la nouvelle enquête de l'Ined, dirigée par J.N. Biraben, sur la population française entre 1500 et 1700. Des procédés mathématiques nouveaux et des cas de figure quasi expérimentaux (Paris, les petites villes, le Québec ancien) procurent de plus de résultats inédits. On s'intéresse aussi à d'autres questions telles que l'avortement dans les populations anciennes ou l'histoire de la population féminine urbaine au XVIIIè siècle. L'histoire des savoirs démographiques marque le bicentenaire de l'Essai sur le principe de population de Malthus, et en propose ici une nouvelle lecture. Elle s'est enrichie de l'étude de controverses, comme la comparaison entre les populations de Londres et de Paris aux XVIIè et XVIIIè siècles, les débats sur la polygamie au XVIIIè siècle, ou la question de l'insalubrité des logements au temps du choléra parisien. L'histoire intellectuelle doit enfin être soucieuse de critique conceptuelle, qu'elle traite des idées audacieuses de Cyrano de Bergerac, des spéculations de Leibniz ou des travaux pionniers de Messance, dont on donne deux inédits, datant de 1790 et 1791. Numéro dédié à Jean-Noel Biraben, Jacqueline Hecht et Jacques Houdaille dont les bibliographies apparaissent en fin de volume. Voir le sommaire sur photos jointes.…

Twitching eyes. Nervous. CRIMINAL HISTORY Table is blank except for handwritten note in fountain pen: "Notify District Attorney's Office Washington D.C.: 10-23-31" This card was processed on October 23, 1931, the dissemination of his aliases, detailed physical anomalies (such as prominent gold teeth, a severe eye twitch, and a distinct foreign accent), and a substantial $250 reward suggest an active federal and municipal dragnet. In the 1930s, arson was dealt with severity since it put human life at risk in a dense urban environment Value elevated because it includes clear mugshots, interestingly with his eyes closed, a high-value reward ($250), police profiling term, "NATIONALITY Hebrew" (You never see "NATIONALITY Episcopalian" or "NATIONALITY Baptist" on posters), and references to the Bertillon physical measurement system which was phased out shortly after this era. Since he was 50 years old in October 1931, he was born c. 1881. Since he "is Hebrew and speaks with accent." He was surly a first-generation Jewish immigrant, likely arriving during the massive waves of migration from Eastern Europe between 1890 and 1910. Surely his name was not Edward Frank White when he got off the boat. Maybe his last name was "Weiss", which is German and Yiddish for "White." In the mugshots his eyes are shut. This was either a deliberate tactic or a symptom of his physical condition. The text notes his "twitching eyes" and a "nervous disposition." In the 1930s, police cameras used intense, bright flash powder or early high-wattage incandescent bulbs. For someone with a severe, involuntary nervous twitch (blepharospasm), the blinding flash would trigger a powerful, immediate spasm, causing them to shut their eyes at the moment the shutter clicked. But it was also common for seasoned criminals to intentionally blink, grimace, or look down to distort their features and ruin the mugshot, making it harder for the public to recognize them from a flyer. Sometimes the police used spoiled photos because developing film took time and, also, police departments couldn't afford to waste multiple plates of film . .…
