The Acts of the Apostles
Acts is the sequel to Luke's gospel and tells the story of Jesus's followers during the 30 years after his death. It describes how the 12 apostles, formerly Jesus's disciples, spread the message of Christianity throughout the Mediterranean against a background of persecution. With an introduction by P.D. James
Saint Paul
This book revisits and revises some of the most basic concepts of time in the Judeo-Christian tradition, drawing on St. Paul's writings to rethink a new kind of radical faith in truth as an event, as the advent of the incalculable, a modality that remakes the pairing religious/secular.
In The Steps Of St. Paul
In the Steps of St. Paul dazzlingly retraces the apostle's famed journey of faith through Israel, Greece, and Italy, using the Bible itself as a guide. With an ear for good stories and an eye alert to detail, Morton creates a compulsively readable narrative that will satisfy the most curious traveler as well as the most informed and passionate reader of the Bible.
St. Paul's
The present St Paul's Cathedral, Christopher Wren's masterpiece, is the fourth religious building to occupy the site. Its location in the heart of the capital reflects its importance in the English church while the photographs of it burning during the Blitz forms one of the most powerful and familiar images of London during recent times. This substantial and richly illustrated study, published to mark the 1,400th anniversary of St Paul's, presents 42 scholarly contributions which approach the cathedral from a range of perspectives. All are supported by photographs, illustrations and plans of the exterior and interior of St Paul's, both past and present. Eight essays discuss the history of St...
The Paul Street Boys
The novel, considered one of the foundations of youth literature, was published in 1907 and was a great success not only in our country but throughout the world. This is evidenced by the fact that it has been translated into many languages, from Bulgaria to South Korea. In Italy, for example, it has risen among the literary myths, the 13th edition of the Pocket Library series has already appeared, just not as a mandatory curriculum. The story that takes place in the Füvészgarten in Józsefváros has so much to say that it becomes understandable to those who live in other parts of the world. Few novels depict the world of adolescents in such a multi-layered and sensitive way as the work of Ferenc Molnár, The Boys of Pál Street. It is no surprise that it has become a compulsory book. This lyrical chronicle of the Pest children's world of the 1890s has been processed several times, both on stage and in movies. This version is based on a scanned copy of the 1927 Macy-Masius book. The final copy might still contain some typos due to the scanning process and other marks from the original, but I apologize if I overlooked them.
Encyclopaedia Britannica
This eleventh edition was developed during the encyclopaedia's transition from a British to an American publication. Some of its articles were written by the best-known scholars of the time and it is considered to be a landmark encyclopaedia for scholarship and literary style.
The Copywrights
They borrow from published works without attribution. They remake literary creation in the image of consumption. They celebrate the art of scissors and paste. Who are these outlaws? Postmodern culture-jammers or file-sharing teens? No, they are the Copywrights--Victorian and modernist writers, among them Oscar Wilde and James Joyce, whose work wrestled with the intellectual property laws of their day.In a highly readable and thought-provoking book that places today's copyright wars in historical context, Paul K. Saint-Amour asks: Would their art have survived the copyright laws of the new millennium? Revisiting major works by Wilde and Joyce as well as centos assembled by anonymous writers f...
Building St Paul's
Building St Paul's tells the story of the cathedral that has dominated London's skyline for 300 years and of those responsible for its construction from the time of the disastrous Great Fire to final completion in 1708. The figure of Sir Christopher Wren is well known, but this book also considers those ordinary craftsmen, the contractors and overseers, the quarrymen on the Isle of Portland, the humble stonemasons and carpenters who shaped the materials. James Campbell is the first historian to plough through the documents in search of these people: he describes life on a seventeenth-century building site, the workers' day-to-day responsibilities, how some were poorly paid while others became millionaires. He also unravels the struggles for money that at one time threatened to undermine the whole enterprise. Campbell's account reaffirms St Paul's not only as one man's masterwork, but as an incredible collaborative achievement.
