The Encyclopedia of the Stone-Campbell Movement

"Over ten years in the making, The Encyclopedia of the Stone-Campbell Movement offers for the first time a sweeping historical and theological treatment of this complex, vibrant global communion.

A history of research that changed scholarly perceptions of early Judaism This collection of essays by some of the most important scholars in the fields of early Judaism and Christianity celebrates fifty years of the study of the Old Testament Pseudepigrapha at the Society of Biblical Literature and the pioneering scholars who introduced the Pseudepigrapha to the Society.

Contributors recount the history of the section's beginnings, critically examine the vivid debates that shaped the discipline, and challenge future generations to expand the field in new interdisciplinary directions. Features: Reflections from early members of the Pseudepigrapha Group Essays that examine a methodological shift from capturing and preserving traditions to exploring the intellectual and social world of Jewish antiquity Evaluations of past interactions with adjacent fields and the larger academic world

So Deep in Shadow

A collection of short stories about the extremes humans can find ourselves in-often of our own making. Each story uses the adverb "so" in its title, indicating the extreme function of the following adjectives (tired, snowy, long, alive, dense, rude?). McDowell employs fantasy, literary fiction, historical fiction, speculative fiction, and more in the collection.- "So Dense" - An unusually dense fog-and a blind woman who seems to know more than climate scientists.- "So Snowy" - Santa? Is that you? - "So Humane" - The 'louison' was invented by the French as a humane method of execution?who went first?- "So Quiet" - What if you came back from vacation unable to speak to certain people??and six more unusual and engaging stories by Markus McDowell.
