Modern readers of the Bible often find the Old Testament difficult and even disturbing. What are we to do with obscure prophecies of long expired nations? Why should we read and study ancient laws that even the New Testament says are eclipsed by Christ? How can we reconcile Jesus' Sermon on the Mount with the Old Testament's graphic narratives of sex and violence? What does the Old Testament offer that is not surpassed and even made irrelevant by the New Testament? John Walton has spent a career engaging deeply with the Old Testament's text and ancient context. He has studied, taught, and written about the issues. His signature approach can be introduced in one sentence: The Old Testament was written for us but not to us. We must not conform it to our own understanding. We will fully grasp the Old Testament and its theology only when we are immersed in the ancient cultural current of Israel within its broader cultural river of the ancient Near East. In Old Testament Theology for Christians, John Walton invites us to leave our modern—and even inherited Christian—preconceptions at the threshold as we enter the world of the Old Testament. He challenges us to see it anew—as if for the first time—as guests in a strange and fascinating foreign land. Then we will rediscover its testimony to God's great enterprise. In this capstone to a career of studying and teaching the Old Testament, Walton unfolds a grand panorama of Yahweh and the gods, of cosmos and humanity, of covenant and kingdom, of temple and torah, of sin and evil, and of salvation and afterlife. Viewed within its ancient Near Eastern cognitive environment, the text takes unexpected turns and blossoms into fresh and challenging insights. No matter how you are accustomed to viewing the first testament of the Bible, Old Testament Theology for Christians will challenge and sharpen your perceptions.

Die Graphic-Novel-Vorlage zur großen Disney+-Actionkomödie AMERICAN BORN CHINESE ist ein teils autobiografisches Werk aus der meisterlichen Feder des New-York-Times-Bestsellerautors Gene Yang (AVATAR – HERR DER ELEMENTE) und erzählt die Geschichte dreier Figuren, die zunächst nichts zu verbinden scheint: Jin Wang, der mit seiner Familie in eine neue Nachbarschaft zieht, nur um feststellen zu müssen, dass er der einzige Schüler mit chinesisch-amerikanischen Wurzeln an seiner neuen Schule ist; der mächtige Affenkönig, Mittelpunkt einer der ältesten und größten chinesischen Fabeln; und Chin-Kee, die Verkörperung des schlimmsten chinesischen Stereotyps, der das Leben seines Cousins Danny mit seinen jährlichen Besuchen ein ums andere Mal ruiniert. Ihre Leben und Geschichten sollen in dieser spannenden modernen Fabel im Zuge einer unerwarteten Wendung bald aufeinandertreffen. Gene Luen Yang, der fünfte nationale Botschafter der USA für Jugendliteratur und MacArthur Fellow, zog mit AMERICAN BORN CHINESE 2006 in das Finale des National Book Award für Jugendliteratur ein und im Jahr 2007 erhielt er den Michael L. Printz Award, gewann den Eisner Award in der Kategorie "Best Graphic Album: New", war in der Kategorie "Best Coloring" nominiert und wurde mit dem Titel "Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year" ausgezeichnet.

- A memoir created in pictures: over two hundred photos linked and underpinned not in chronological order but shown in a cinematographic sequence and rhythm. - As well as the photos, the author includes his memories and the experiences he gained when he took them, without boasting or telling unlikely stories. - A book open in all directions, unprejudiced and with no other aim than to capture life itself. Antoni Bernad began to work as a graphic artist when he was fifteen but he soon realised that his world was made of images and without knowing how to swim, he launched himself into the deep end hoping that his passion would serve as a lifebelt. This passion and a stubborn will have led him to be now recognised as one of the great photographers. People such as Dalí, Paloma Picasso, Horst, David Hockney, Tàpies, Català Roca, Manolo Blahnik, Joan Miró, Mercè Rodoreda or Ryszard Kapuscinski have posed in front of his camera. In his portraits he always strives to reach the person's soul and reflect their most intimate emotions. Now that the abuse of imagery has become a burden, this book allows us to judge Bernad's work with perspective and to underline its worth: authenticity, without sliding into sensationalist artifice or fleeting fashions. It is the work, in short, of a contemporary classic. With texts by Antoni Llena and Josep Casamartina i Parassols

Auf einer Liste der einflussreichsten Regisseure der letzten 50 Jahre muss man nicht weit nach unten gehen, um seinen Namen zu finden: Martin Charles Scorsese. Mit 25 Spielfilmen und 16 Dokumentationen prägte Scorsese das Kino wie kein Zweiter. »Taxi Driver«, »Raging Bull«, »Goodfellas«, »Gangs of New York«, »Departed« und »The Wolf of Wall Street«, Robert de Niro, Harvey Keitel, Jodie Foster, Willem Defoe und Leonardo DiCaprio – um nur einige seiner Meisterwerke zu nennen und nur einige Stars, die sich die Klinke in die Hand gaben, um mit ihm zu arbeiten. Aber wie wurde aus dem kleinen, asthmatischen Jungen aus Little Italy in Queens einer der wichtigsten Filmemacher unserer Zeit? Amazing Ameziane, der mit »Quentin Tarantino« einen neuen Maßstab in Sachen Comic-Biografie gesetzt hat, widmet dem Leben und Werk des genialen Regisseurs über 380 Graphic-Novel-Seiten, auf denen sich detailbesessene Recherche, schmissige Zeichenkunst und spürbare Liebe für die siebte und die neunte Kunst zu perfektem Lesespaß verbinden.

The crown, long a symbol of British dominance in Ireland, represented not just monarchy but imperial control – and in December 1921, opponents of the Anglo-Irish Treaty argued that its terms would forever bind Ireland to that legacy. The newly established Irish Free State would remain part of the British Commonwealth, with only limited sovereignty, leading many to fear this arrangement would never change if the Treaty was accepted. Yet, in just 16 years, Ireland became a republic in all but name. Twelve years later, it officially adopted that name and removed all doubt about its constitutional independence by formally exiting the Commonwealth. Remarkably, this transformation occurred without a single shot fired. This peaceful revolution unfolded through a series of governments from various parties and a remarkable cast of figures: a monarch willing to abdicate for love; a British prime minister who enabled Irish neutrality; and another who tried to coerce Ireland into World War II. What seemed impossible in 1921 was achieved through persistent determination, skilful diplomacy and a fair amount of luck. This is the story of how it happened.

This was the threefold task of the House of Lancaster: to recover prestige abroad, to restore peace at home, to re-establish order in the Church. For Henry of Bolingbroke the crown was to prove a thankless burden; but his labors were not in vain, and his son succeeded to the throne under happier auspices. Henry of Monmouth, deriving his inspiration from the past, was the champion of unity against the forces of disintegration. His aims were to govern England on the principles of the old constitutional monarchy as the chosen representative of his people's will; to maintain his country's place as a part in the whole society of the Western world; and for himself, as became a Christian King, to be the head and leader of a united Christendom.
