Download or read book Reformation written by Diarmaid MacCulloch and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-09-02 with total page 1195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reformation was the seismic event in European history over the past 1000 years, and one which tore the medieval world apart. Not just European religion, but thought, culture, society, state systems, personal relations - everything - was turned upside down. Just about everything which followed in European history can be traced back in some way to the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation which it provoked. The Reformation is where the modern world painfully and dramatically began, and MacCulloch's great history of it is recognised as the best modern account.
Download or read book The David Story A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel written by Robert Alter and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
Download or read book A Companion to Joachim of Fiore written by Matthias Riedl and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joachim of Fiore (c.1135-1202) remains one of the most fascinating and enigmatic figures of medieval Christianity. In his own time, he was an influential advisor to the mighty and powerful, widely respected for his prophetic exegesis and decoding of the apocalypse. In modern times, many thinkers, from Thomas Müntzer to Friedrich Engels, have hailed him as a prophet of progress and revolution. Even present-day theologians, philosophers and novelists were inspired by Joachim’s vision of a Third Age of the Holy Spirit. However, at no time was Joachim an uncontroversial figure. Soon after his death, the church authorities became suspicious about the explosive potential of his theology, while more recently historians held him accountable for the fateful progressivism of Western Civilization. Contributors are: Frances Andrews, Valeria De Fraja, Alfredo Gatto, Peter Gemeinhardt, Sven Grosse, Massimo Iiritano, Bernard McGinn, Matthias Riedl, and Brett Edward Whalen.

Download or read book The Wise Shall Understand written by Charles Huntley Clever and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2009-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Bible has only one encrypted part that says: "The words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end" (Daniel 12:9). The author read many different Bible translations from "Genesis" to "Revelation" searching for the hidden "key" to open that last-day Bible-code. Discovering the "key" in 1974, he realized it was hidden because it applies today-especially for this significant time of history. It not only proves Jesus is the Messiah, the "sacrificial Lamb of God" and identifies the Abomination of Desolation that Christ warned us of, but defines the exact boundaries of earth's participation in the cosmic conflict between good and evil-these points are greatly misunderstood and subjects of controversy among most major religions. One minister who read an advanced copy of The Wise Shall Understand said: "We have been reading the Bible with grandpa's glasses on." How true! And this author requests you read this publication with spiritual enlightenment, allowing God to impress you with facts that have been overlooked yet are validated in the Bible. Today our society is overwhelmed with hatred, agnosticism, rebellion, atheism, and "a zeal for God but not according to godliness." World condition mandates this important message be made available to the public so the author paused in his missionary work in Latin America to have it published in book form.
