In this first historical study of Holy Men for more than half a century, Dr Anderson applies techniques of literary analysis to throw light on the lifestyles and behaviour of these figures, from Jesus Christ to Peregrinus Proteus to dio Chrysostom, stressing their individuality as much as their common features.Sage, Saint and Sophist examines the variety of services, real or imaginary, that these colouful figures had to offer and how they maintained their credibility tCultsRomeProphetsRomeChurch historyPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600Religious biographyRomeRomeHistoryEmpire, 30 B.C.-284 A.DCultsProphetsChurch historyReligious biography292.9292.9Anderson Graham.156208MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910971941303321Sage, saint and sophist486168UNINA03504nam 22006612 450 991016875460332120151002020704.01-280-49109-497866135863220-85728-807-5(CKB)2670000000160409(EBL)875550(OCoLC)781850884(SSID)ssj0000640515(PQKBManifestationID)12270600(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000640515(PQKBWorkID)10612313(PQKB)10248794(UkCbUP)CR9780857288073(Au-PeEL)EBL875550(CaPaEBR)ebr10539060(CaONFJC)MIL358632(ScCtBLL)1b07bfec-ef56-4aa8-9b5b-0e3a241088b4(PPN)19980415X(oapen)doab37253(MiAaPQ)EBC875550(EXLCZ)99267000000016040920120305d2011|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierReligion and the state a comparative sociology /edited by Jack Barbalet, Adam Possamai, Bryan S.

This volume offers a comprehensive reference to the latest research on dolphin communication and cognition, reporting on findings from both the laboratory and the field. The contributors review a wide range of topics, including vocalization, abstract reasoning abilities, imitation and learning, social cognition, echolocation, and ethical issues in working with cetaceans. The book begins by examining the dolphin brain and its evolution, the anatomy of its unique sound production and reception systems, and its sensory abilities. It next treats communication, reviewing the complexity of dolphins' vocalization, and then describes research on cognition, from both experimental and developmental perspectives. Finally, the book considers the future of dolphin research, including a series of provocative questions that remain unanswered, posed by the volume's expert contributors"--MIT CogNet.DolphinsBehaviorDolphinsPsychologyAnimal communicationCognition in animalsDolphinsBehavior.DolphinsPsychology.Animal communication.Cognition in animals.599.53/1513Herzing Denise L.Johnson Christine M(Christine Mary),OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910971400103321Dolphin communication and cognition4542979UNINA
