The Poetry of Greek Tragedy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lattimore, Richmond Alexander, PUBLISHER: Johns Hopkins University Press, Is Sophocles the poet "more important" than Sophocles the moralist, Sophocles the student of character, or Sophocles the storyteller? In this acclaimed work, eminent classicist Richmond Lattimore examines the complex and varied ways in which Greek poetry contributes to Greek drama. While acknowledging the difficulty of separating poetry -- especially in translation -- from other aspects of language, Lattimore offers keen insight into plays by Aeschylus (The Suppliant Maidens, The Persians, The Seven against Thebes, Prometheus Bound), Sophocles (Ajax, Oedipus Tyrannus), and Euripides (Medea, Helen, The Bacchae).

The Later Christian Fathers: A Selection from the Writings

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bettenson, Henry, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, The century and a quarter following the Council of Nicaea (A.D. 325) has been called the 'Golden Age of Patristic literature.' It is this period that Henry Bettenson covers in this companion volume to The Early Christian Fathers, selecting from the writings of Basil the Great, Gregory of Nyssa, Jerome, Augustine of Hippo, Cyril of Alexandria, and other Fathers of the Christian Church. Their central concerns were formulating the doctrine of the Trinity after the Nicene conclusions, and enunciating the doctrine of the divinity and humanity of Christ. The writings served to clarify if not to solve the issues and they continue to be valuable and relevant for all who wish to understand the Christian doctrine. As in The Early Christian Fathers, Mr. Bettenson has translated everything afresh and provided some brief sketches of the lives of each of the Fathers represented in the selection.

The Subversive Role of Visions in Early Christian Martyrs

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Maldonado Perez, Zaida / P. Rez, Zaida Maldonado, PUBLISHER: Emeth Press, During the persecution of the early church, the stories of the witness of the martyrs-later known as the Acts of the Martyrs--became a critical part of the church's reading and devotional material. Why? This book argues that the reading of the Acts, and especially their visions, did more than just encourage the persecuted church; they reveal a nuanced view of God, the world, power, and powerlessness, death and life that at times subverts what may have been construed as normal or dominant by either church or the Greco-Roman society. This nuanced view may in fact reflect an underlying grass-roots or "popular theology" not readily available to the reader through other early church literature.

The Genesis of Ethics: On the Authority of God as the Origin

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Reed, Esther D., PUBLISHER: Pilgrim Press, The Genesis of Ethics soundly addresses the controversial concept of God's authority and reframes the concept as separate from authoritarianism. Esther D. Reed views ethics as the practical expression of divine-human reciprocity -- not as an isolated part of Christian life. "God's authority is not of a controlling or hegemonic kind, but of the dialogic, answerable kind, which draws human persons into relationship, " writes Reed. Reed proclaims that God's Word calls us to life, and the way we answer with our lives is the embodiment of Christian ethics and moral theology. The book presents and expounds upon a critical question -- How is the church to exercise authority in ways that promote the growth of personal freedom in Christ while preventing its teaching authority from becoming authoritarian?
