Johann Ernst Glück (1654-1705)
Johann Ernst Gluck (1654 Wettin-1705 Moskau) wirkte von 1681 bis 1702 als lutherischer Pastor und Probst in Schwedisch-Livland. Er ubersetzte die Bibel und andere geistliche Schriften ins Lettische und wurde so zu einem der Vater der lettischen Schriftsprache. Durch Schulgrundungen suchte er Bildung und Aufklarung in das unterdruckte lettische Bauernvolk zu bringen. Als Probst setzte er sich dafur ein, Lettischkenntnisse unter den Pastoren zu verbreiten. In Lettland wird J.E. Gluck bis heute als bedeutender Volksaufklarer und Philologe verehrt. 1702 wurde er samt seiner Familie nach Moskau verschleppt, wo er im Auftrag Peters I. eine hohere Schule nach westlichem Vorbild errichten sollte. In Moskau verfasste er eine Grammatik des Russischen und ubersetzte geistliche Schriften und Kirchenlieder ins Russische, was ihm den Ruf eines bedeutenden Bildungspolitikers verschaffte. Die Biographie ist die erste in deutscher Sprache. Sie soll einen grossen Philologen, Aufklarer und Pastor 300 Jahre nach dessen Tod in seiner Heimat in Erinnerung bringen.

Discovering Classical Music: Gluck
"I recommend this book wholeheartedly to new music lovers" Sir Charles Groves CBE Thanks to Nigel Kennedy and Pavarotti, millions of people have recently discovered that classical music is a highly enjoyable experience, perhaps contrary to their expectations. But the world of classical music can be highly intimidating and confusing. Ian Christians, for many years a passionate believer in broadening the interest in classical music, has developed a unique approach, designed to make it as easy as possible for both newcomers to classical music and those who have started down the path to explore with confidence. Discovering Classical Music concentrates on the greatest composers. The author takes you step-by-step into their most approachable music and, in some cases, boldly into some of the greatest works traditionally considered too difficult for newcomers. Rarely does a book offer such potential for continued enjoyment.This volume concentrates on the life, personality and music of Edward William Elgar.

Not Beyond Language
The problem of speaking about God arises from the presumed notion that God is utterly transcendent and is “wholly other” from human existence. Moreover, a profound sense of mystery is held to surround God’s being. Even so, Not Beyond Language maintains that it is still possible for human beings to express and describe God in words—that language can bring genuine disclosure and understanding of the divine. However, given that religious language is problematic because inadequate, those who engage in speaking about God must accept that the words they use cannot be pressed to yield precise definitions or complete explanations of the divine. The author proposes a nuanced approach to the use of religious language which revolves more around meaning and relevance of the discourse about divine reality, than objective claims about who or what God is.
