A Walk Through Time and Space


Book Description

What are we looking for when we buy a book to read? A sigh of time when the body relaxes and the brain still works, an escape to another place and time. Entertainment in any venue, whether it be action, inspirational, educational, dark, light, comedy, "how to," and on and on, "different strokes for different folks." This book is different in that it is made up of thirty writings, each piece was written in my own personal style. I have a mailing list of thirty people that have read each piece as it was written, and from them, perhaps a hundred more read each piece. Many of these readers encouraged me to put the pieces into book form and let everyone read them. So here we are, I hope you find this book entertaining and enlightening, incremental reading at its best.

The Hammam through Time and Space


Book Description

Julie Peteet offers a fascinating tour through the rich cultural history of hammams, or baths, in the Mediterranean and Middle East. These sacred structures date back to the Bronze and Iron Ages and have evolved through the Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Islamic periods. In this original work, Peteet provides the first comprehensive examination of hammams through their architecture, the labor pool, clientele, meanings, notions of the body and hygiene, and economy. Exploring the hammam as both a tangible architectural structure and an intangible social practice, Peteet sheds light on how the bath has functioned as a central hub of religious ceremonies and a space that transcends any specific religious affiliation. Although hammams have experienced a decline due to modernization, new domestic technologies, and rejection of the Ottoman-Islamic past, their current reinvigorated form illuminates neoliberal conceptions of heritage and leisure industries. Hammams have become spaces for cleansing and fashioning a gendered and aesthetically appropriate body as defined by a global wellness syndrome. Peteet’s captivating narrative traces the hammam’s historical significance and contemporary role as both a sacred and profane cultural phenomenon.

Walking Through Time


Book Description

Our human experience in time can be like watching a movie trailer but never actually getting to see the movie or looking away momentarily and realizing the movie was fast-forwarded to another scene. Every moment is perpetually flowing into and becoming the past; instantly enshrined as memory as soon as we experience it; never to be repeated. And though we have a temporary existence, we regularly muse about eternity, as if we have a primordial memory embedded deep in our psyche. We, somehow, sense that we are not meant to be prisoners of time. This collection of poetry and art illustrates glimpses of our mysterious journey through time and into eternity. It speaks of the joy, the sorrow, the fear and the faith we experience and it inspires optimism, hope and strength for our journey through time.
