The Book of Revelation, The Apocalypse, is the closing book and the only prophetical book of the New Testament canon. The author of this book was undoubtedly John the apostle. His name occurs four times in the book itself (1:1, 4, 9; 22:8), and there is every reason to conclude that the "John" here mentioned was the apostle. In a manuscript of about the twelfth century he is called "John the divine," but no reason can be assigned for this appellation. The date of the writing of this book has generally been fixed at A.D. 96, in the reign of Domitian. There are some, however, who contend for an earlier date, A.D. 68 or 69, in the reign of Nero.

This is the extended and annotated edition including * an extensive annotation of more than 5.000 words about the history and evolution of the book we call 'The Bible' A great book is a living organism. Months, years, or centuries may go into its gestation. When finally composed and written down, it can be said to be born, but only born. It then grows and develops through the interpretations of generation after generation of readers, critics, editors, and translators, each adding something, great or little, to its expanding magnitude. The life of the Bible, above all other books, is a life made up of countless lives, embodying their joys and agonies, their visions, their defeats and aspirations. Four thousand years cling about it. A full millennium of myths and legends passed into it; another millennium was consumed in the writing; bitter battles over canon and creed occupied a third; a fourth has seen the ever-continuing translations into modern tongues. Contents: ONE - General Character TWO - The Authors THREE - The Conflict over Creed and Canon FOUR - The Bible under Medievalism FIVE - The Great Translations SIX - The Higher Criticism SEVEN - The Bible and the Stream of Life

Los libros de Wharton son testimonio de las transformaciones que sufría Nueva York a principios del siglo XX, de las grandes mansiones frente a Central Park hasta las zonas de los obreros explotados, reducidos a una vida indigna en sus diminutos departamentos. A pesar de que no apoyó ni el movimiento sufragista de las mujeres ni el feminismo de su época, las protagonistas de estos dos relatos, y de buena parte de sus libros, son mujeres fuertes, apasionadas y decididas. Son personajes que establecen relaciones importantes y complejas con otras mujeres, de amistad y antagonismo -lejos de los estereotipos que predominan en el canon literario- y que toman las riendas de su destino, incluso cuando se encuentran en la desesperanza más absoluta. Sirvan estos dos relatos para quienes no conocen a la autora, para quienes han leído sus novelas -más famosas que sus cuentos- y para quienes tienen la suerte de releer dos historias que crecen con cada nueva lectura.

Once hailed by John Osborne as 'the greatest actor since Brando', latterly known as a ruined genius whose unpredictable, hellraising behaviour was legendary, Nicol Williamson always went his own way. Openly dismissive of 'technical' actors, or others who played The Bard as if 'their finger was up their arse', Williamson tore up the rule book to deliver a fast-talking canon of Shakespearean heroes, with portrayals marked by gut-wrenching passion. According to one co-star, Williamson was like a tornado on stage – 'he felt he was paddling for his life'. Fiercely uncompromising, choosy about the roles he accepted, contemptuous of the 'suits' who made money from artists, and a perfectionist who never accepted second best from himself or others, Nicol sometimes alienated those around him. But even his detractors still acknowledge his brilliance. After an extraordinary career on both stage and screen, Williamson was burnt out as an actor by the age of 60. Yet, as Gabriel Hershman explains in this authorised biography, a premature end was perhaps inevitable for an actor who always went the extra mile in every performance.

Biblical Foundations Book Awards Runner Up and Finalist In the biblical canon, two books lack any explicit reference to the name of God: Song of Songs and Esther. God's peculiar absence in these texts is unsettling, both for theological discourse and for believers considering implications for their own lived experience. Chloe T. Sun takes on the challenges of God's absence by exploring the often overlooked theological connections between these two Old Testament books. In Conspicuous in His Absence, Sun examines and reflects on the Song of Songs and Esther using theological interpretation. She addresses three main questions: What is the nature of God as revealed in texts that don't use his name? How do we think of God when he is perceived to be absent? What should we do when God is silent or hidden? The experience of God's absence or silence is an important part of the human condition. By exploring the distinct themes and perspectives of Song of Songs and Esther, as well as how they've been received in Jewish and Christian history, Sun demonstrates how both books serve as counter texts to the depiction of God and his work in the rest of the Hebrew Scriptures. Thus both contribute to a fuller picture of who God is and what it means to know him.

Biblical Foundations Book Awards Finalist The Catholic Epistles often get short shrift. Tucked into a few pages near the back of our Bibles, these books are sometimes referred to as the "non-Pauline epistles" or "concluding letters," maybe getting lumped together with Hebrews and Revelation. Yet these letters, Darian Lockett argues, are treasures hidden in plain sight, and it's time to give them the attention they deserve. In Letters for the Church, Lockett reveals how the Catholic Epistles provide a unique window into early Christian theology and practice. Based on evidence from the early church, he contends that the seven letters of James, 1–2 Peter, 1–3 John, and Jude were accepted into the canon as a collection and should be read together. Here Lockett introduces the context and content of the Catholic Epistles while emphasizing how all seven letters are connected. Each chapter outlines the author, audience, and genre of one of the epistles, traces its flow of thought, and explores shared themes with the other Catholic Epistles. The early church valued the Catholic Epistles for multiple reasons: they defend orthodox faith and morals against the challenges of heretics, make clear that Christianity combines belief with action, and round out the New Testament witness to Christian faith and life. By introducing the coherent vision of these seven epistles, Letters for the Church helps us rediscover these riches.

Sherlock Holmes es el arquetipo de investigador cerebral por excelencia e influyó en gran medida en la ficción detectivesca posterior a su aparición. Aunque podemos considerar a Auguste Dupine, creado por Edgar Allan Poe, como un personaje predecesor muy similar, la genialidad excéntrica de éste no alcanzó la enorme popularidad que Holmes y su autor alcanzaron en vida de éste.

La gloria literaria de Borges ha llegado a un punto en que genera más admiradores que lectores. Este libro trabaja en la dirección contraria, proponiendo claves de lectura que impulsan a recorrer los textos borgeanos sin reverencias. Con su estilo habitual, que resulta accesible aun cuando hable de cuestiones complejas, Beatriz Sarlo cuenta que el punto de partida de su libro es la extrañeza que experimenta al ver las obras de Borges en los anaqueles de las librerías europeas, convertido en un grande entre los grandes, sin nacionalidad, y la sensación de que en ese proceso de triunfal universalización algo se pierde o se diluye: ese "algo", que atraviesa todos sus textos con tanta intensidad como la erudición y las referencias librescas, es la ciudad que él amó, Buenos Aires, la tradición de la literatura gauchesca (desde el Martín Fierro hasta Don Segundo Sombra), el dilema sarmientino entre civilización y barbarie, su relación con poetas y escritores marginales, como Evaristo Carriego y Macedonio Fernández, o con los consagrados, como Leopoldo Lugones. Dosificando la admiración y la distancia, Sarlo construye una pieza maestra de la crítica, que permite leer por primera vez a Borges o volver a sus textos con más recursos, con una mirada ampliada capaz de advertir el conflicto permanente que ponen en escena entre la apuesta cosmopolita (visible en las citas, las apropiaciones, las traducciones, la red de libros reales o imaginarios que pueblan sus acciones) y "el destino sudamericano" que sella la suerte de los compadritos, los orilleros, los duelos cuerpo a cuerpo. Ese suelo inestable, entre dos orillas, define la propia posición de Borges como el escritor genial que accede al canon occidental desde un país periférico. Borges, un escritor en las orillas es, por todo esto, un libro indispensable para seguir leyendo el corpus borgeano más allá de los homenajes.
