Jerusalem

Ny oversættelse af den storslåede slægts- og kærlighedsroman, der foregår i Dalarna i årene omkring 1900. Handlingen er vidt forgrenet, med Ingmarsgården og to generationer af Ingmarssønnerne i centrum. Af kærlighed til slægtsgården må Ingmar træffe det umulige valg at gifte sig med en rig bondes datter frem for med skolelærerens datter Gertrud, som han elsker. Gertrud bliver halvt vanvittig af sorg, gribes af religiøs vækkelse og drager til Jerusalem sammen med en del af sognets beboere. Snart følger Ingmar imidlertid efter for at gøre sin uret god igen og hente Gertrud hjem. Bogen er filmatiseret af Bille August. "Et af den nordiske litteraturs stærkeste opgør med den sværmeriske religiøse vækkelse og erotiske askese ... Her små 100 år senere er romanenes magi intakt, og dens problematik stadig lige smertelig aktuel ... rummer uforglemmelige passager, der rækker langt ind i verdenslitteraturen." - Berlingske Tidende. "Et vidunderligt, nuanceret billede af mennesker, som ind i mellem handler ondt - også, ell er især, mod dem de holder af; om en dyb forståelse for menneskelige vilkår, om lidenskab og om tilgivelse." - Aktuelt.

Thoroughly updated and revised for 2024, JERUSALEM: THE BIOGRAPHY is the history of the Middle East through the lens of the Holy City and the Holy Land, from King David to the wars and chaos of today. The history of Jerusalem is the story of the world: Jerusalem is the universal city, the capital of two peoples, the shrine of three faiths. The Holy City and Holy Land are the battlefields for today's multifaceted conflicts and, for believers, the setting for Judgement Day and the Apocalypse. How did this small, remote town become the Holy City, the 'centre of the world' and now the key to peace in the Middle East? Why is the Holy Land so important not just to the region and its many new players, but to the wider world too? Drawing on new archives and a lifetime's study, Montefiore reveals this ever-changing city and turbulent region through the wars, love affairs and revelations of the kings, empresses, amirs, sultans, caliphs, presidents, autocrats, imperialists and warlords, poets, prophets, saints and rabbis, conquerors and whores who created, destroyed, chronicled, and believed in Jerusalem and the Holy Land. A classic of modern literature, this is not only the epic story of 3,000 years of faith, slaughter, fanaticism, co-existence, power and myth, but also a freshly updated, carefully balanced history of the Middle East, from King David to the new players and powers of the twenty-first century, from the birth of Judaism, Christianity and Islam to the Israel-Palestine conflict and the mayhem of today. This is how today's Middle East was forged, how the Holy Land became sacred and how Jerusalem became Jerusalem - the only city that exists twice - in heaven and on earth.

Jerusalem is a novel by the Swedish writer Selma Lagerlöf, published in two parts in 1901 and 1902. The narrative spans several generations in the 19th century, and focuses on several families in Dalarna, Sweden, and a community of Swedish emigrants in Jerusalem. It is loosely based on a real emigration that took place from the parish of Nås in 1896. As part of her research Lagerlöf went to visit Horatio and Anna Spafford at the American Colony, Jerusalem. The first four chapters of the first book were adapted into two ambitious films by Victor Sjöström in 1919 and 1920, Sons of Ingmar and Karin Daughter of Ingmar. Sjöström originally intended to film the entire suite, but decided to cancel the project after the second film received unenthusiastic critical response. Gustaf Molander picked up where Sjöström left and released his adaptation of the first book, Ingmarsarvet, in 1925, followed by the second, Till Österland, in 1926. The Danish filmmaker Bille August directed a 1996 film version with the title Jerusalem. A stage adaptation, Ingmarsspelen, has become an annual tradition in Nås, Dalarna, where it has been performed outdoors every year since 1959. (wikipedia.org)

"The better I understand the roots of the Hebrew people and its universal-human mission, the better I shall understand the nature of humanity and its mission; and the more human I become, in the most universal sense, anchored in a new spiritual knowledge and practice, the more fulfilled, active and creative I can be at the roots of my existence as a Jew and an Israeli." --Yeshayahu Ben-Aharon Based on a remarkable series of lectures delivered in his native Israel, Dr. Ben-Aharon presents his illuminating research on the meaning of Judaism and the spiritual mission of the Jewish people in the past, present and future. The Hebrew people have been a central root in the development not only of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, but also of the universal human spirit itself. Thus, a new understanding of their development and contribution to the spiritual biography of humanity is essential to understanding ourselves as human beings. The Jews were chosen to reveal the deepest secret of ancient times: the existence of one God above all gods, being the Creator of all human beings--beyond race, nation and gender--in his divine image . The great historical and spiritual figures of the Hebrew people--Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Joseph, as well as the judges, kings, and prophets--prepared humanity for individuation, the true "I AM," through devotion to the divine foundation of the world. "The Lord our God is one," who is to be loved with all one's heart, soul and being. Each person could now fulfill the Word, which could be actualized on Earth-- in the human being . Dr. Ben-Aharon describes the evolution of the Hebrew people and its role in the development of the human race. The journey continues to the present day, where the universal human Self has the potential to become a free participator in the ongoing creation of the universe. "Anyone who comprehends the profundity and complexity of the spiritual problems we are faced with in the world today is well aware that any sustainable attempt at a 'political solution' to the problem of Jerusalem and Israel must be based on a fundamental and profound renewal of the understanding of the meaning of humanity. What must change fundamentally is our actual knowledge regarding our common spiritual origin; the common path and the common future mission of all people and humanity....The demand for such a fundamental change in ourselves presents itself to us again and again in Israel, Palestine and Jerusalem as their center and as a global center of humanity, not symbolically but in the most tangible sense. It is the bleeding, dividing mirror, reflecting with painful steadfastness the intensity of forgetfulness of our origin, our path and the future goals of our evolution, and of our common spiritual mission."

Guy Delisle expertly lays the groundwork for a cultural road map of contemporary Jerusalem, utilizing the classic stranger-in-a-strange-land point of view that made his other books, Pyongyang , Shenzhen , and Burma Chronicles , required reading for understanding what daily life is like in cities few are able to travel to. In Jerusalem: Chronicles from the Holy City , Delisle explores the complexities of a city that represents so much to so many. He eloquently examines the impact of the conflict on the lives of people on both sides of the wall while drolly recounting the quotidian: checkpoints, traffic jams, and holidays. When observing the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim populations that call Jerusalem home, Delisle's drawn line is both sensitive and fair, assuming nothing and drawing everything. Jerusalem showcases once more Delisle's mastery of the travelogue.

"Jerusalem" bygger på virkelige begivenheder i Selma Lagerlöfs samtid. I en landsby i Dalarne kom beboerne under så stærk påvirkning af en vækkelsesprædikant, at 40 af dem brød op fra deres gårde og alt, hvad de ejede, og rejste til Jerusalem for at leve i et kristent fællesskab.I fortællingen lever vi os ind i de voldsomme lidenskaber, der drev disse mennesker.

"Jerusalem" tilbyder et indblik i et skatkammer af opskrifter, der både indebærer det traditionelle middelhavskøkken og moderne variationer af kendte klassiskere, lokale specialiteter og helt nye retter. Du får f.eks. opskrifter på falafel, tabouleh, risotto, shawarma, samt en række spændende og eksotiske salater, lam, brød og desserter. Den smukt illustrerede bog indeholder i alt over 100 opskrifter. "Jerusalem" er skrevet af venneparet Ottolenghi og Tamimi, der er henholdsvis jødisk og palæstinensisk. De to kokke har samlet de mest fantastiske og spændende opskrifter fra deres hjemby: det mangfoldige Jerusalem.

In the half a square mile of decay and demolition that was England's Saxon capital, eternity is loitering between the firetrap housing projects. Embedded in the grubby amber of the district's narrative among its saints, kings, prostitutes, and derelicts a different kind of human time is happening, a soiled simultaneity that does not differentiate between the petrolcolored puddles and the fractured dreams of those who navigate them. Fiends last mentioned in the second-century Book of Tobit wait in urine-scented stairwells, the delinquent specters of unlucky children undermine a century with tunnels, and in upstairs parlors laborers with golden blood reduce fate to a snooker tournament. An opulent mythology for those without a pot to piss in, through the labyrinthine streets and pages of Jerusalem tread ghosts that sing of wealth and poverty; of Africa, and hymns, and our threadbare millennium. They discuss English as a visionary language from John Bunyan to James Joyce, hold forth on the illusion of mortality post-Einstein, and insist upon the meanest slum as Blake's eternal holy city. Fierce in its imagining and stupefying in its scope, Alan Moore's epic novel, Jerusalem, is the tale of Everything, told from a vanished gutter.
