Miracle and Mission
The Longer Ending of the Gospel of Mark (Mark 16:9-20) was appended to the Gospel of Mark in the first half of the second century. James A. Kelhoffer explores this passage's distinct witness to the use of gospel traditions and the development of Christian thought. Concerning the origin of this passage, he argues that a single author made use of the New Testament Gospels in forging a more satisfactory ending to Mark. He studies the passage's sometimes innovative literary forms as well. Also of interest is the passage's claim that the ascended Lord will help those who believe to perform miraculous signs - casting out demons, speaking in new languages, picking up snakes, drinking poison with im...
Die Universität Wien im Austrofaschismus
Während es über Österreichs Hochschulen nach dem »Anschluss« 1938 zahllose Studien gibt, sind die fünf Jahre davor universitätshistorisch kaum aufgearbeitet. Diese erstaunliche Forschungslücke wird durch den vorliegenden Band geschlossen, der eindrücklich zeigt, wie sehr die Universität Wien unter der Dollfuß/Schuschnigg-Diktatur Schaden nahm.

The popularity of rifles designed to take big game has never been greater. Terry Wieland, a widely recognized firearms expert, explores in detail the rifles and calibers that are drawing attention.

Culture and Political Crisis in Vienna
In this sequel to Political Radicalism in Late Imperial Vienna, John Boyer picks up the history of the Christian Social movement after founder Karl Lueger's rise to power in Vienna in 1897 and traces its evolution from a group of disparate ward politicians, through its maturation into the largest single party in the Austrian parliament by 1907, to its major role in Imperial politics during the First World War. Boyer argues that understanding the unprecedented success that this dissident bourgeois political group had in transforming the basic tenets of political life is crucial to understanding the history of the Central European state and the ways in which it was slowly undermined by popular...
