    • Ben Witherington 著 /2012-01-01/ Cambridge University Press
    • This book presents in as clear a way as possible the NewTestament material dealing with women and their roles in thecontext of the movement Jesus began. Dr Witherington begins byillustrating the roles of women in Judaism, in the Hellenisticworld, and in the Roman Empire. She goes on to show how Jesus brokesignificantly with convention in the way he viewed women and theirroles, offering as he did a wholly new conception of the legitimaterights of women in society. An analysis follows of the apostlePaul's attitude toward women, which shows how he agreed with anddiffered from the ideas of his contemporaries. The concludingchapters discuss the evangelists, whose selection and presentationof material with respect to women casts much light on the earlyChurch's understanding of women and their roles. This comprehensivesurvey, which avoids slanting its material to serve a modernpatriarchal or feminist bias, comes to the exciting conclusion thatwe can see in the New Testament an attempt to reform thepatriarchal

    • Kathleen Hughes 著 /2008-08-01/ Cambridge University Press
    • This book is meant to be useful and readable. It assumes someexperience in ordinary historical techniques, but no expertknowledge. In discussing the various kinds of source material forearly Irish history, the problems each kind raises and the sort ofquestions it will answer, the author discusses many of the majorhistorical issues. Her book is therefore not so much abibliographical guide as a work of historical analysis anddiscussion. It deals with the main sources of Irish history betweenc. 400 and c. 1170, and has nine chapters: on archaeology (withappendices on aerial photography and coins), the secular laws,ecclesiastical legislation, the annals (with an appendix on thegenealogies), secular literature, ecclesiastical learning,hagiography, art and architecture, eleventh- and twelfth-centuryhistories and compilations. A bibliography and index complete thebook.

    • Scientology, created in 1954 by a prolific sci-fi writer namedL. Ron Hubbard, claims to be the world's fastest growing religion,with millions of members around the world and huge financialholdings. Its celebrity believers keep its profile high, and itsteams of "volunteer ministers" offer aid at disaster sites such asHaiti and the World Trade Center. But Scientology is also a notablyclosed faith, harassing journalists and others through litigationand intimidation, even infiltrating the highest levels of thegovernment to further its goals. Its attacks on psychiatry and itsrequirement that believers pay into the tens and even hundreds ofthousands of dollars for salvation have drawn scrutiny andskepticism. And ex-members use the Internet to share stories ofharassment and abuse. Now Janet Reitman offers the first fulljournalistic history of the Church of Scientology, in an evenhandedaccount that at last establishes the astonishing truth about thecontroversial religion. She traces Scientology's development fro

    • Timothy Beal 著 /2011-01-01/ Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
    • In this revelatory exploration of one of our most revered icons,a critically acclaimed author and professor takes us back to earlyChristianity to ask how a box of handwritten scrolls became theBible, and forward to see how the multibillion-dollar business thathas brought us Biblezines and Manga Bibles is selling down theBible's sacred capital. Showing us how a single official text wascreated from the proliferation of different *s, Beal tracesits path as it became embraced as the word of God and Book ofbooks. Among his surprising insights: * Christianity thrived for centuries without any Bible--there wasno official canon of *ures, much less a book big enough tohold them all. Congregations used various collections of scrollsand codices. * There is no "original" Bible, no single source text behind thethousands of different Bibles on the market today. The farther wego back in the Bible's history, the more versions we find. * The idea of the Bible as the literal Word of God is relativelynew--only about a century

    • Michael C. Questier 著 /2008-07-01/ Cambridge University Press
    • This is a study of the political, religious, social and mentalworlds of the Catholic aristocracy from 1550 to 1640. MichaelQuestier examines the familial and patronage networks of theEnglish Catholic community and their relationship to the laterTudors and Stuarts. He shows how the local history of theReformation can be used to rewrite mainstream accounts of nationalpolitics and religious conflict in this period. The book takes inthe various crises of mid- and late Elizabeth politics, theaccession of James VI, the Gunpowder Plot, religious toleration andthe start of the Thirty Years War and finally the rise ofLaudianism, leading up to the civil war. It challenges recenthistorical notions of Catholicism as fundamentally sectarian anddemonstrates the extent to which sections of the Catholic communityhad come to an understanding with both the local and national Stateby the later 1620s and 1630s.

    • Richard Dawkins 著 /2008-01-01/ Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
    • In this provocative must-read, the preeminent scientist—andworld’s most prominent atheist—Richard Dawkins asserts theirrationality of belief in God and the grievous harm religion hasinflicted on society, from the Crusades to 9/11. The God Delusionmakes a compelling case that belief in God is not just wrong, butpotentially deadly. It also offers exhilarating insight on theadvantages of atheism to the individual and society, not the leastof which is a clearer, truer appreciation of the universe’s wondersthan any faith could ever muster. With rigor and wit, Dawkinseviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates thesupreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religionfuels war, foments bigotry, and abuses children, buttressing hispoints with historical and contemporary evidence. This is a bookthat challenges all of us to test our beliefs, no matter whatbeliefs we hold.

    • Reading the Gospels without knowing the personality of Jesusis like watching television with the sound turned off. The resultis a dry, two dimensional person doing strange, undecipherablethings. In BEAUTIFUL OUTLAW, John Eldredge removes the religious varnishto help readers discover stunning new insights into the humanity ofJesus. He was accused of breaking the law, keeping bad company,heavy drinking. Of being the devil himself. He was so compellingand dangerous they had to kill him. But others loved himpassionately. He had a sense of humor. His generosity wasscandalous. His anger made enemies tremble. He'd say the mostoutrageous things. He was definitely not the Jesus of the stainedglass. In the author's winsome, narrative approach, he breaks Jesus outof the typical stereotypes, just as he set masculinity free in hisbook, Wild at Heart. By uncovering the real Jesus, readers arewelcomed into the rich emotional life of Christ. All of theremarkable qualities of Jesus burst like fireworks with
