International Review of Biblical Studies, Volume 55 (2008-2009)
Formerly known by its subtitle “Internationale Zeitschriftenschau für Bibelwissenschaft und Grenzgebiete”, the International Review of Biblical Studies has served the scholarly community ever since its inception in the early 1950’s. Each annual volume includes approximately 2,000 abstracts and summaries of articles and books that deal with the Bible and related literature, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, Pseudepigrapha, Non-canonical gospels, and ancient Near Eastern writings. The abstracts – which may be in English, German, or French - are arranged thematically under headings such as e.g. “Genesis”, “Matthew”, “Greek language”, “text and textual criticism”, “exegetical methods and approaches”, “biblical theology”, “social and religious institutions”, “biblical personalities”, “history of Israel and early Judaism”, and so on. The articles and books that are abstracted and reviewed are collected annually by an international team of collaborators from over 300 of the most important periodicals and book series in the fields covered.

Studies in Gnosticism and in the Philosophy of Religion

Theology of Suffering and Cross in the Life and Works of Blessed Edith Stein
Edith Stein is a very significant woman of our century. She was German Jewess who at first plunged herself into vile abyss of Atheism. Converted to Roman Catholicism she ascended to the highest peak of Mount Carmel and thus achieved the mystical union of her soul with God. For the Church she is a martyr and revered saint. In the philosophical circle she is a significant exponent of Phenomenology. A heroic woman, Edith Stein is a feminist of true womanhood. The philosophical insights of Edmund Husserl and the Mystical Theology of St. John of the Cross helped her in the development of the Science of the Cross. The relevance of Edith Stein is seen not merely in the scientific exposition of the Theology of the Cross but specially in the living witness of that doctrine in her own life.

Liebe und Leid, Kampf und Grimm
Die literaturwissenschaftliche Mediävistik verdankt moderner Emotionsforschung bedeutsame Impulse. Einen breit gefächerten emotionsspezifischen Ansatz trägt die Autorin hier an die großen Dichter und Werke der mittelhochdeutschen Literatur, an Hartmann von Aue und das »Nibelungenlied«, an Wolfram von Eschenbach, Walther von der Vogelweide, Mechthild von Magdeburg, Meister Eckhart und andere heran. In den Deutungen dieser bildmächtigen Zeugnisse höfischer, städtischer und religiöser Dichtung sowie ihrer neuzeitlichen Nachschöpfungen tritt eine signifikante kulturelle Spannung zwischen Affekt und Affektkontrolle, Emotionalität und Reflexivität zu Tage.
