A Man That Looks on Glass
The Quaker movement in Britain is beset with problems - growing secularisation, incompatible belief systems, ideology as a substitute for faith. Add to these the emergence of theologically-based 'special interest' groups with their own sectarian agendas and campaigning methods and we have a genuine existential crisis on our hands. A Man that Looks on Glass (the title is from a poem by a seventeenth century poet) analyses and questions the thinking that has led to this situation. It challenges the supposed inevitability of the 'Godless' strand in British Quakerism and calls for a renewed emphasis on transcendence. It ends with a positive look at a Quaker mystical theism based on individual and corporate religious experience.
Goethe in English

The work records publications during the century, not merely translations that originated during this period. It includes numerous reprintin...

The Ring in the Glass
As the painting of The Temptation of Christ hangs ominously on the wall, young SAMUEL MORGAN is plagued by its haunting presence. But it's not just the painting that's causing him anguish. Samuel's involvement in the Occult with an insane witchcraft scientist, ALAN WILSON, has set free a terrifying demon—BEELPHEGOR—with devastating effect. Desperate for a solution, Samuel's mother, MARILYN MORGAN, seeks help from doctors and psychiatrists. But their support is ineffective in the face of such malevolent forces. In a last-ditch effort, Marilyn turns to REVEREND STEPHEN MASON, a priest- counsellor known for his expertise in exorcisms. But before he can begin the daunting task of driving out the demon that possesses Samuel, Reverend Mason must first overcome his own faltering faith and uncertainties about God. As the battle between good and evil rages on, the stage is set for a final showdown between the reverend and the demonic Beelphegor on holy ground—where the fate of Samuel's soul hangs in the balance.
Through the Language Glass
"Guy Deutscher is that rare beast, an academic who talks good sense about linguistics... he argues in a playful and provocative way, that our mother tongue does indeed affect how we think and, just as important, how we perceive the world." Observer *Does language reflect the culture of a society? *Is our mother-tongue a lens through which we perceive the world? *Can different languages lead their speakers to different thoughts? In Through the Language Glass, acclaimed author Guy Deutscher will convince you that, contrary to the fashionable academic consensus of today, the answer to all these questions is - yes. A delightful amalgam of cultural history and popular science, this book explores some of the most fascinating and controversial questions about language, culture and the human mind.
