Sobre IBD

The author was a staff person at Sheldon Jackson, the Alaskan Christian school that has sent out acclimated scholars since 1878. Most were graduates but others merely salted their education with a year or two at Sheldon Jackson.Other authors may tell of the history and philosophy of the school. I prefer to merely mention incidents, persons or things that constitute the touchstone of Parables. Sheldon Jackson has grown up with the State of Alaska, from Mission, to Institute, to Industrial Home, to Training School, to High School, to Junior College, to College. It has always provided 'Competent Christian Citizens' for the spiritual and secular needs of the state and country.A parable is an earthly story that carries a heavenly meaning. The enclosed parables are from Sheldon Jackson and to the world.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...

    George W. Loomis
    In 1759, the court of the Italian Duchy of Parma adopted the inspiration of cultural creators who recommended a reform of Italian opera along French lines. These writers favored combining Italian-style music with the wider range of musical genres and scenic variety of French opera. As the music critic and commentator George W. Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...
