This volume explores facets of Nietzsche relatively untouched by the majority of the vast literature on him. Stambaugh concentrates on his ideas on art and creativity in general, regarding these realms of human endeavor as not limited to aesthetics in the narrower sense, but as constitutive of life itself. She also explores a much neglected side of Nietzsche's thought, a dimension that is poetic and mystical. Drawing mainly from Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Nietzsche's most enigmatic and profound work, Stambaugh interprets Nietzsche's ultimate affirmation of life out of his experience of eternity.

"India has many versions of the story of Rāma composed in Sanskrit, Prakrit, and various vernaculars of the north and south. Yet the ancient Sanskrit version, attributed to the sage-poet Vālmīki, by tradition the first work of true poetry, is the source revered throughout India as the original account of the career of Rāma, ideal man and incarnation of the great God Viṣṇu. This great Sanskrit epic of ancient India has profoundly affected the Literature, Art, Religion and Cultures of countless millions of people in South and Southeast Asia--an influence that is perhaps unparalleled in the history of World Literature. The volumes of this work will present the entire Rāmāyaṇa for the first time translated on the basis of the critical edition, which is based on manuscripts representing all recensional traditions. Translation consortium is as follows: Vol. I, Bālakāṇḍa; Vol.II, Ayodhyākāṇḍa; Vol.III, Araṇyakāṇḍa; Vol.IV, Kiṣkịndhāḳạnda; Vol.V, Sundarakāṇḍa; Vol.VI, Yuddhakāṇ̣ḍa; Vol.VII, Uttarakāṇḍa" --
Probing study of how literature can redeem the revelatory, redemptive powers of language. In this probing look at Alfred Döblin’s 1929 novel Berlin Alexanderplatz and the stories of W. G. Sebald, Redeeming Words offers a philosophical meditation on the power of language in literature. David Kleinberg-Levin draws on the critical theory of Benjamin and Adorno; the idealism and romanticism of Kant, Hegel, Hölderlin, Novalis, and Schelling; and the nineteenth- and twentieth-century thought of Nietzsche, Heidegger, and Derrida. He shows how Döblin and Sebald—writers with radically different styles working in different historical moments—have in common a struggle against forces of negativity and an aim to bring about in response a certain redemption of language. Kleinberg-Levin considers the fast-paced, staccato, and hard-cut sentences of Döblin and the ghostly, languorous, and melancholy prose fiction of Sebald to articulate how both writers use language in an attempt to recover and convey this utopian promise of happiness for life in a time of mourning.
Liberation theology emphasizes the Christian mission to bring justice to the poor and oppressed. As a part of Christian theology, liberation theology has been most frequently associated with the Catholic Church in Latin America. This groundbreaking work seeks to identify how the theological concepts of liberation theology might be manifested within other world faith traditions. This is thus the first book that attempts to find a "common ground" for liberation theology across religions. All of the contributors are scholars who share the religion or belief system they describe. Throughout, they endeavor to articulate liberationist concepts from the perspective of those who have been marginalized.
