Wounds Fragments Derelict is Carlos Gabriel Kelly's debut poetry collection. These poems comprise a narrative of love and loss. Throughout the collection, Kelly weaves poetic fragments into a narrative expressing the torment of a relationship that clings to the heart even with the passage of time. As the speaker conjures his world seen through the prism of lost love, ghosts populate a landscape in which heartbreak prevents any possibility of moving forward. In these fragments, romantic, bold, and erotic verse speaks to the heart, its repetitions rattling the bones with carefully composed meter. Kelly also inventively takes advantage of the full page to create non-traditional forms for his poems. With honesty, poignancy, and romantic flair, he distills the most exhilarating highs and heartbreaking lows of life and love into evocative lines that will become etched in the reader's mind.
The author has sought to make the contents ecumenically relevant. The book assumes a level of proficiency in English suitable for tertiary-level study. The contents focus especially on developing reading skills. The eleven units in Section 1 provide instruction and practice in the skills of reading comprehension in English, using authentic theological texts. The way in which meaning is conveyed through mode of discourse, genre, organization of ideas, paragraph and sentence structure, and the skills of scanning, skimming and interpreting cohesive devices are included. The thirteen units in Section 2 offer practice in applying reading, listening, writing and speaking skills. English for Theology is and has been tested by a variety of students and their teachers in the region, including lecturers and selected students at the Auckland Consortium for Theological Education within the University of Auckland, New Zealand, teachers and students in West Papua (Uniting Church), and individual students from Vietnam and China studying in the Philippines. Copies have also been made available for individual use and/or in selected student libraries in the Philippines, Indonesia, Iraq and East Timor. The common theme in feedback to date is that the book is 'very helpful' to students and teachers alike.
A literacy training tool for students who are learning theology and for whom English is a second language or for those who are studying theology or scripture at the parish level. The book is a textbook with over 150 words that come with a definition and an exercise. The book is illustrated with art from Australalian Indigenous students (Aboriginals), from Darwin, Australia. The book uses simple language to explain complex theological terms or biblically based concepts. It could be used in parishes, or in junior or secondary school; in small groups or in a classroom setting. The book is ecumenical in nature and written by a Catholic Dominican Religious Sister and an Anglican Priest who teaches at Nungalinya College, Darwin.
With eleven new contributions, this second edition of essays on the sources and principles of Dominican values in education offers an extended sample of the many settings in which Dominican education, broadly understood, finds expression. Cherished by all Dominicans, these values are exemplified not only in the lives of well-known foundational Dominicans, but also in some of those many others who, on every continent and across time, have responded in typically Dominican ways at key moments in history. Educators, activists, philosophers, teachers, preachers, artists, healers and theologians at many levels share their analyses and reflections on educating in many different contexts, explicitly and implicitly demonstrating ideals and values common to the goals of Dominican education everywhere. It is hoped that this collection, offered again in this decade of Dominican Jubilee-1206 - 1216 to 2006 - 2016 -will inform, inspire and encourage all those engaged in the great work of educating not only youth but people of all ages towards greater life and liberty.
