Hans Küng
Hans Kung is a theologian and scholar pastor and writer, preacher and professor priest and controversialist, Catholic ecumenist--a contradictory figure. Who is he really? How does he see himself? How does he live and work? What are the motives behind his life, his writing, his actions? What does he think about the present situation of church and Christianity? this book, written by two of his colleagues, presents a lively picture of Hans Kung and evaluates his thirty years of service to the Church.

Interweaving Haring's own words with the reflections of those who knew him, this book captures the remarkable life and spirit of one of the most celebrated artists of our time, who died at age 31 in 1990. Haring candidly discusses all aspects of his life, from his controversial approach to art to coming to terms with AIDS. Illustrated with full-color reproductions of the artist's strikingly original works.
The Tapestry of Christian Theology
This unique and supremely readable textbook recounts the thought of nine influential twentieth-century theologians in the light of biblical narrative to better understand the Christian life. By drawing upon the achievement of major thinkers--Rosemary Ruether, Gustavo Gutierrez, Reinhold Niebuhr, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Karl Rahner, Jurgen Moltmann, Hans Kung, Yves Congar, and Wolfhart Pannenberg--and rooting it within the rich fabric of its biblical context--Creation, Exodus, Conquest, Exile, the Incarnation, the Crucifixion, the Resurrection, Pentecost and the End of Time--The Tapestry of Christian Theology traverses a landscape both historical and spiritual, one that traces and encourages a new understanding of both perspectives, and illumines a greater insight into our own lives. Here is a rigorous and wide ranging textbook for college theology courses, also suitable for the general reader.
Music and German National Identity
Concert halls all over the world feature mostly the works of German and Austrian composers as their standard repertoire: composers like the three "Bs" of classical music, Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms, all of whom are German. Over the past three centuries, many supporters of German music have even nurtured the notion that the German-speaking world possesses a peculiar strength in the cultivation of music. This book brings together seventeen contributors from the fields of musicology, ethnomusicology, history, and German literature to explore these questions: how music came to be associated with German identity, when and how Germans came to be regarded as the "people of music," and how music ca...
Commutative Ring Theory
In addition to being an interesting and profound subject in its own right, commutative ring theory is important as a foundation for algebraic geometry and complex analytical geometry. Matsumura covers the basic material, including dimension theory, depth, Cohen-Macaulay rings, Gorenstein rings, Krull rings and valuation rings. More advanced topics such as Ratliff's theorems on chains of prime ideals are also explored. The work is essentially self-contained, the only prerequisite being a sound knowledge of modern algebra, yet the reader is taken to the frontiers of the subject. Exercises are provided at the end of each section and solutions or hints to some of them are given at the end of the book.
