Everyone knows you don't talk about the elephant in the room. But, what if you are the elephant in the room? White Boys from Hell files a report on the position of the straight white male in current American culture, a position fraught with contradiction and confusion. It does so without resort to the diction of the academy, or any lens applied in detachment, but, rather: from the inside out. In poems that address relations between men and women, men and other men, and men and the larger world, notions such as "masculinity," and "toxic masculinity" are considered by the voice of poetry, which, in Robert Pinsky's use of the phrase, means "something quite literal and practical." Granted, these are the poems of one person (elephant?) only, but the voice is compelling, the vision clear-eyed, rending, and urgent.
Autorenporträt
John Skinner was a renowned Scottish Presbyterian clergyman and biblical student who made good sized contributions to The Expositor's Bible collection. His opus, "The Book of Ezekiel," demonstrates his scholarly prowess and in-intensity engagement with biblical sources. In this incisive study, Skinner digs into the prophetic and symbolic complexities of the Book of Ezekiel, giving readers with an intensive and informative exam. Skinner's remark on Ezekiel, published as part of The Expositor's Bible series, gives an intensive examination of the prophet's visions and words, in addition to the ancient surroundings wherein they evolved. Skinner's method blends theological readability with an intensive look at of the cultural and ancient context of Ezekiel's day. His writing demonstrates a determination to make the complicated narratives of the Old Testament available to a large audience whilst retaining highbrow rigor. "The Book of Ezekiel" by way of John Skinner is not handiest a useful resource for theologians and biblical lecturers, but it additionally demonstrates Skinner's commitment to clarifying the profound truths hidden inside the texts. His study is still seemed as a big addition to the know-how and interpretation of the Book of Ezekiel in the large context of biblical research.
