Описание: "Illiterate Literary Man" is a compelling story about two unlikely friends who form an inseparable bond despite facing personal hardships. Trixie is an abused and neglected girl who has never experienced unconditional love. She wanders the street alone looking for food and shelter. One night, her life changes for the better as she meets Romey, the son of immigrant parents. As a first-born American, Romey faces his own adversity as he struggles to learn the English language and adapt to the culture around him. Despite obstacles in front of them, Romey and Trixie grow to become best friends and more. Despite their pact, they dont truly know everything about each other. When Trixie stumbles onto Romeys big secret, she accidentally reveals it to the world and their friendship faces the ultimate test. Despite their closeness, questions arise after Trixie breaks the sacred trust of friendship. How will Romey handle it? This will not be the first-time secrets are revealed, and a sequence of unexpected events follows that puts everything into question. This enthralling story is a must-read and is great for teenage readers. It is filled with meaningful themes encompassing friendship, love, trust, acceptance, and the difficulties of adapting to life as an immigrant in the United States.

Описание: Allen Hilton examines how pagan critics ridiculed the early Christians for being uneducated, and how a few literate Christians took up pen to defend the illiterate members of their churches. Hilton sheds light on the peculiarity of this "defense", in which the authors openly admit that the critics have the facts on their side, noting that the Book of Acts even calls two of its heroes, Peter and John, illiterates. Why did the authors of these biblical texts, intent on presenting Christianity in a positive light, volunteer such a negative detail?

The answer to this question reveals a fascinating social exchange that first surrounded education levels in antiquity, and proceeded to make its way into the New Testament. This volume provides context for pagan education as opposed to early Christian illiteracy - touching upon the methods of ancient learning and the relationship between Christian and pagan schools - and analyses the 'uneducated virtue' of the Apostles. Hilton provides a useful window onto the social construction of ancient education and ushers readers into the everyday experience of ancient Christians, and those who disdained and defended them.
