 Nietzsche and depth psychology / edited by Jacob Golomb, Weaver Santniello, and Ronald Lehrer.



"Exploring the connections between Nietzsche's thought and depth psychology, this book sheds new light on the relation between psychology and philosophy. It examines the status and function of Nietzsche's psychological insights within the framework of his thought; explores the formative impact of Nietzsche's "new psychology" on Freud, Adler, Jung, and other major psychoanalysts; and adopts Nietzsche's original psychological insights on the figure and biography of Nietzsche himself."--BOOK JACKET.

I want to use $x analysis for either/both psychology and psychoanalysis, but classificationweb says that that is only used for chemistry.


 Israel’s border wars, 1949-1956 : Arab infiltration, Israeli retaliation, and the countdown to the Suez War / Benny Morris.



“This revised and updated paperback edition of a highly successful study looks at the development of Israeli-Arab relations during the formative years 1949 to 1956, focusing on Arab infiltration into Israel and Israeli retaliation. Palestinian refugee raiding and cross-border attacks by Egyptian-controlled irregulars and commandos were a core phenomenon during this period and one of the chief causes of Israel's invasion of Sinai and the Gaza strip, the Israeli part of the Anglo-French-Israeli invasion of Egypt in 1956.; Benny Morris probes the types of Arab infiltration and the attitude of Arab governments towards the phenomenon, and traces the evolution of Israel's defensive and offensive responses. He analyses Israeli decision-making processes, including the emergence and ultimate failure of Foreign Minister Moshe Sharett's dissident policy of moderation and describes in detail the history of the Arab infiltration, including the terrorist-guerrilla raids by state-organized Fedayeen in 1955-6, and of the IDF raids against Sharafat, Beit Jala, Qibya, Gaza, the Syrian Sea of Galilee positions, and the Sabha.; This was a precedent-setting period in the making of Israeli defence policy, and this pattern of raiding and counter-raiding served to define Israeli-Arab relations during the subsequent three to four decades. In this revised and expanded paperback edition, Benny Morris deepens our understanding of the evolution of the Israeli-Arab conflict and of the crossroads at which a possible peace settlement was missed.”



Aboutness:

The boarder wars of Israel were influenced by guerrilla infiltration from the Arab states and the retaliation from Israel, the combination of which led to a missed peace treaty and an all-out war.

I included the last one because sometime people search for one thing while they want another. Or they know what they want, but don’t know what to search for to find it.

Religion and revelation : a theory of revelation in the world’s religions / Keith Ward.



"The idea of revelation has played a fundamental role in the history of religion. This book provides a new and detailed investigation of the concept, examining its nature, sources, and limits in five of the major scriptural religions of the world: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism." "The first part of the book discusses the nature of theology, and expounds a comparative method as the most useful and appropriate for the modern age. Part Two focuses on the nature of religion and its early historical manifestations, whilst the third part of the book goes on to consider the idea of revelation as found in the great canonical religions of the world. Part Four develops the distinctively Christian idea of revelation as divine self-expression in history. The final part of the book discusses how far the idea of revelation must be revised or adapted in the light of modern historical and scientific thought, and proposes a new and positive theology of revelation for the future. The book includes discussions of the work of most major theologians and scholars in the study of religion - Aquinas, Tillich, Barth, Temple, Frazer, and Evans Pritchard - and should be of interest to scholars and students of comparative religion, philosophers of religion and theologians, and anthropologists."--Jacket.

Contents: 

Part I: Towards a comparative theology -- Theological knowledge -- Revelation and reason -- Theology as a comparative discipline -- Part II: Primal disclosures -- Primal revelations -- The role of imagination -- From primal to canonical traditions -- Part III: Four Scriptural traditions -- Judaism -- Vedanta -- Buddhism -- Islam -- Part IV: Christian reflections: revelation as historical self-manifestation -- Incarnation and history -- Inspiration and revelation -- Taking history on faith -- Incarnation as revelation -- Part V: Religion after enlightenment -- The scientific world-view -- Authority and autonomy -- Religious diversity -- The structure of revelation.

I lost some points on this assignment, as I didn't include "methodology" under the painting book, and because I put a date range that may or may not be usable for the WWII work.
