The Song of Songs Through the Ages
The Song of Songs is a fascinating text. Read as an allegory of God’s love for Israel, the Church, or individual believers, it became one of the most influential texts from the Bible. This volume includes twenty-three essays that cover the Song’s reception history from antiquity to the present. They illuminate the richness of this reception history, paying attention to diverse interpretations in commentaries, sermons, and other literature, as well as the Song’s impact on spirituality, theological and intellectual debates, and the arts.
Early Printed Narrative Literature in Western Europe
The essays in this volume are concerned with early printed narrative texts in Western Europe. The aim of this book is to consider to what extent the shift from hand-written to printed books left its mark on narrative literature in a number of vernacular languages. Did the advent of printing bring about changes in the corpus of narrative texts when compared with the corpus extant in manuscript copies? Did narrative texts that already existed in manuscript form undergo significant modifications when they began to be printed? How did this crucial media development affect the nature of these narratives? Which strategies did early printers develop to make their texts commercially attractive? Which social classes were the target audiences for their editions? Around half of the articles focus on developments in the history of early printed narrative texts, others discuss publication strategies. This book provides an impetus for cross-linguistic research. It invites scholars from various disciplines to get involved in an international conversation about fifteenth- and sixteenth-century narrative literature.

The Art of Not Falling Apart
New Statesman's Best Books of the Year, 2018 Mail on Sunday, Books of the Year, 2018 We plan, as the old proverb says, and God laughs. But most of us don't find it all that funny when things go wrong. Most of us want love, a nice home, good work, and happy children. Many of us grew up with parents who made these things look relatively easy and assumed we would get them, too. So what do you do if you don't? What do you do when you feel you've messed it all up and your friends seem to be doing just fine? For Christina Patterson, it was her job as a journalist that kept her going through the ups and downs of life. And then she lost that, too. Dreaming of revenge and irritated by self-help books...
Stealing the Show
'Fun, charming and romantic, this feel-good read is a real treat' Closer - praise for Christina Jones Nell Bradley’s family all work flat-out to keep Bradleys’ Mammoth Fun Fair in business. They’re expecting her to take the traditional showman’s route and make a suitable match with Ross Percival, who, with his state-of-the-art hydraulic touring rides, will bring traditional Bradleys into the twenty-first century.

But what she hadn’t realised is that the horses come with their own very sexy restorer...
Die Vita der Christina von Hane
Die Vita der Christina von Hane ist außergewöhnlich. Bereits Kurt Ruh stellte fest: „Die Christina-von-Hane-Vita bietet für den Leser, der nur noch Analogien zu bekannten Typen erwartet, Überraschungen, das heißt einmalige Besonderheiten.“ Mit der vorliegenden Arbeit wird erstmalig eine umfassende Studie geliefert, die zu weiteren Untersuchungen anregen soll. Mystische Vitentexte lassen sich nicht auf ihre somatischen, brautmystischen oder historiographisch relevanten Anteile reduzieren; sie müssen in ihrer Vielschichtigkeit wahrgenommen werden. Dabei ist auch die Phänomenologie der Quelle hervorzuheben, die sich als heiliges Buch, als Manifestation des göttlichen Wortes gibt. Die mystische Vita der Christina von Hane kann so als Beispiel einer Schrift- und Schreibmystik gesehen werden, in der sich Elemente materieller Präsenz, sprachlichen Ausdrucks und brautmystischer Verkörperung verzahnen. Die hier vorgelegte kritische Neuedition des Vitentextes aus einer Straßburger Handschrift löst die Mittermaiersche Edition von 1965/66 ab. Der Vitentext wird um die Edition einer in derselben Handschrift überlieferten Maria Magdalena-Bekehrungslegende ergänzt.
