Friedrich Loofs in Halle
Friedrich Loofs war von 1888 bis 1927 Professor für Kirchengeschichte an der Universität Halle. In dieser Zeit hat er über Forschung und Lehre hinaus auch ein reiches pastorales, politisches und soziales Wirken entfaltet. In zehn Einzelstudien würdigt der vorliegende Band Loofs' theologisches Profil als Dogmengeschichtler, seine Arbeit als Verfasser zahlreicher Artikel für die Realenzyklopädie, seine Gelehrtenfreundschaft mit Adolf von Harnack, seinen Beitrag zu Reformationsjubiläen und sein Verständnis der Reformation, sein politisch-diplomatisches Engagement gegen die Vernichtung des armenischen Volkes, seinen Einsatz für die Ausbildung armenischer Nachwuchstheologen, seine Tätigkeit als Universitätsprediger und seine ehrenamtlichen Aufgaben als Armenpfleger der Stadt Halle. So zeichnet der Band ein facettenreiches Bild und fördert manch weniger bekannte Seiten des Wirkens von Friedrich Loofs in Halle zu Tage. Zugleich illustriert er am Beispiel einer prominenten Professorenpersönlichkeit die Bedeutung einer Universität und ihrer Mitglieder nicht nur für die jeweiligen Fächerkulturen, sondern für das Gedeihen einer Stadt und Region insgesamt.

A Short History of Christian Doctrine
This book has earned wide acceptance as an outstanding single volume history of doctrine. It is ideally suited for classroom and seminar use as well as research and independent study. With remarkable conciseness and clarity Lohse, shows how doctrinal development has occurred in the various periods of the Church's history from the first century to the present.

This Revised American Edition includes a new preface by the author, an account of the significance of the Second Vatican Council and alterations in the "For Further Reading" section to bring it up to date.
The Broken Body
A fascinating collection of essays exploring a fresh contemporary approach to the person and doctrine of Jesus Christ How should Christians think about the person of Jesus Christ today? In this volume, Sarah Coakley argues that this question has to be ‘broken open’ in new and unexpected ways: by an awareness of the deep spiritual demands of the christological task and its strikingly ‘apophatic’ dimensions; by a probing of the paradoxical ways in which Judaism and Christianity are drawn together in Christ, even by those issues which seem to ‘break’ them most decisively apart; and by an exploration of the mode of Christ’s presence in the eucharist, with its intensification,‘ br...

Columbanus
Columbanus ("The Dove of the Church"), not to be confused with his near-contemporary Columba of Iona, was a towering figure in the religious and political life of Europe in the Dark Ages. In this lively biography of the saint, Carol Richards evokes the violent and unstable age that laid the foundations for the achievements of the Middle Ages.
Byzantine Philosophy
Western studies tend to view Byzantine philosophy either as a minor offshoot of western European thought, or a handy storehouse for documents and ideas until they are needed. A scholar of philosophy (Aristotle U. of Thessaloniki), Tatakis (1896-1996) finds the view limiting, pointing out that during the Roman period, few Greeks learned Latin but Romans were not considered educated without a founding in Greek, and that Byzantine Christianity has its own trajectory unconcerned with how it deviates from western orthodoxy.
