L'INTRECCIO DEL MEDIO ORIENTE: ISRAELE ÛÒ LIBANO ÛÒ PALESTINA
Terra di incontro di varie culture e identità, terra di scontri, il Medio Oriente deve al crollo dell'Impero Ottomano e alla successiva spartizione tra le potenze coloniali le ragioni delle ripetute crisi. Interessi geopolitici e geostrategici ne hanno segnato profondamente la storia. In particolare il conflitto israelo-arabo-palestinese è senza dubbio il più delicato e complesso della politica mediorientale e mondiale. Anno dopo anno assistiamo ai tentativi di trovare una soluzione che metta fine alla violenza e riconosca le ragioni degli uni e degli altri. Purtroppo, ad oggi la situazione rimane tesa e pronta a sfociare in nuove violenze. E' la storia di un groviglio dell'intricato panorama mediorientale e del suo intreccio tra Israele-Libano-Palestina.

Biblical Scholarship and the Church
Conflicting claims to authority in relation to the translation and interpretation of the Bible have been a recurrent source of tension within the Christian church, and were a key issue in the Reformation debate. This book traces how the authority of the Septuagint and later that of the Vulgate was called into question by the return to the original languages of scripture, and how linguistic scholarship was seen to pose a challenge to the authority of the teaching and tradition of the church. It shows how issues that remained unresolved in the early church re-emerged in first half of the sixteenth century with the publication of Erasmus’ Greek-Latin New Testament of 1516. After examining the differences between Erasmus and his critics, the authors contrast the situation in England, where Reformation issues were dominant, and Italy, where the authority of Rome was never in question. Focusing particularly on the dispute between Thomas More and William Tyndale in England, and between Ambrosius Catharinus and Cardinal Cajetan in Italy, this book brings together perspectives from biblical studies and church history and provides access to texts not previously translated into English.

This volume collects essays by some of the most influential voices in Catholic biblical scholarship today. Covering a variety of topics, from the Old Testament to the Ne...
The Biblical Dante
Dante Alighieri cited the Bible extensively in his Commedia, but also used his epic poem to meditate on the meaning of the Scriptures as a 'true' text. The Biblical Dante provides close readings of passages from the Commedia to explore how Dante's concept of Biblical truth differs sharply from modern notions. V. Stanley Benfell examines Dante's argument that the truth of the sacred text could only be revealed when engaged with in a transformative manner - and that a lack of such encounters in his time had led to a rise in greed and corruption, notably within the Church. He also illustrates how the poet put forth a vision for the restoration of a just society using Biblical language and imagery, revealing ideas of both earthly and eternal happiness. The Biblical Dante provides an insightful analysis of attitudes towards both the Bible and how it was read in the Medieval period.
