It presents versions of Cinderella, The Emperor's New Clothes, Snow White, The Frog Prince and a host of others where the similarities to familiar modern' versions far outweigh the differences. Here we find Cinderella as a courtesan, Snow White coming to a tragic end or an innocent heroine murdering her sisters. We find an emperor's new clothes where the flatterers compare him to Alexander the Great, or a pair of adulterers caught in a magic trap. Tantalising fragments suggest that there is more to be discovered: we can point to a Sleeping Beauty where the girl takes on the green colouring of the surrounding wood, or we encounter a Rumpelstiltskin connected to a mystery cult. The overall picture suggests a much richer texture of popular tale as a fascinating new legacy of antiquity. This volume breaks down the traditional barriers between Classical Mythology and the fairy tale, and will be an invaluable resource for anyone working on the history of fairy tales and folklore.Fairy talesHistory and CritismFolkloreHistoryFairy talesHistory and Critism.FolkloreHistory.398.209Anderson Graham156208OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9911145315403321Ancient fairy and folk tales4836817UNINA02959nam 2200697Ia 450 991114304560332120260415134141.097866117843009781281784308128178430397805674131300567413136(CKB)1000000000541659(EBL)436563(OCoLC)319492771(SSID)ssj0000203550(PQKBManifestationID)11199574(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000203550(PQKBWorkID)10173714(PQKB)11783664(MiAaPQ)EBC436563(Au-PeEL)EBL436563(CaPaEBR)ebr10250842(CaONFJC)MIL178430(OCoLC)893334266(Perlego)817847(EXLCZ)99100000000054165919981014d1999 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe missiological implications of epistemological shifts affirming truth in a modern/postmodern world /Paul G.

THE EPISTEMOLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS OF POSITIVISM; 2. THE EPISTEMOLOGICAL CHALLENGES OF INSTRUMENTALISM AND IDEALISM; 3. CRITICAL REALISM-A WAY AHEAD; NOTES; REFERENCES CITEDThis book explores the question of epistemology, or theory of knowledge, and its impact upon how we view and do missions in today's world.What must a new convert know or believe? How do they know? How can we translate and communicate Christian teachings interculturally without distorting the message? How should we do missions in an anti-colonial, postmodern era characterized by religious relativism and accusations of Christian imperialism?In struggling with these questions, Paul Hiebert focuses on the epistemological foundations that underlay them. He examines three specific theories of knowleChristian mission and modern culture.MissionsTheoryPhilosophy and religionKnowledge, Theory of (Religion)Critical realismMissionsTheory.Philosophy and religion.Knowledge, Theory of (Religion)Critical realism.266/.001Hiebert Paul G.1932-1697310MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911143045603321The missiological implications of epistemological shifts4846000UNINA
