Jesus and Yahweh: The Names Divine

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bloom, Harold, PUBLISHER: Riverhead Books, "The most controversial, explosive, and important book yet from the renowned author and critic." Harold Bloom uses his unsurpassed skills to examine the character of Jesus: the inconsistencies, the contradictions, and the Gospels' flaws of logic. He also explores the character of Yahweh, who Bloom argues has more in common with Mark's Jesus than he does with God the Father of the Christian and rabbinic Jewish traditions. In fact, Bloom asserts, the Hebrew Bible of the Jews and the Christian Old Testament are very different books with very different purposes. At a time when religion has taken center stage in the political arena, Bloom's controversial examination of the incompatible Judeo-Christian traditions will make readers rethink everything they take for granted about what they believe is a shared heritage.

Literary Presentations of Divided Germany: The Development

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hutchinson, Peter / Hutchinson, Allen Ed., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book was the first full-length of East German fiction to appear in English. It takes as its subject the political division of Germany into two increasingly incompatible states, and it concentrates on East German fiction for the simple reason that West German writers are ignorant of one of the most significant events of modern history. After dealing with various historical, bibliographical and cultural problems, Dr Hutchinson isolates three narrative devices of particular value to East German writers: creating a discriminating East German visitor to the West who reinforces the standard image of the capitalist world; introducing figures who are representative of each German state; and examining the two states in terms of their relationship with the Third Reich. A conclusion surveys changes in the literary image of Germany's division between and , and compares East German works on the subject with the few written in the West.

Feminist Interp. Wollstonecraft-PR

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Falco, Maria J., PUBLISHER: Penn State University Press, Essays in honor of the bicentennial of the publication of Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman -- a revolutionary work that argued on behalf of the political, economic, and social equality of women. Combining the liberalism of Locke and the "civic humanism" of Republicanism, Mary Wollstonecraft explored the need of women for coed and equal education with men, economic independence whether married or not, and representation as citizens in the halls of government. In doing so, she foreshadowed and surpassed her much better known successor, John Stuart Mill. Ten feminist scholars prominent in the fields of political philosophy, constitutional and international law, rhetoric, literature, and psychology argue here that Wollstonecraft, by reason of the scope and complexity of her thought, belongs in the "canon" of political philosophers along with Rousseau and Burke, her contemporaries, both of whom she strenuously engaged in political debate. These essays explore the many aspects of her thought that resound so tellingly to the modern woman, including her ground-breaking attempt to be completely self-sufficient. The final bibliographical essay outlines the changing interpretations of Wollstonecraft's work over the past two hundred years and evaluates her standing among political theorists today.

Office Politics

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Melfi, Mary, PUBLISHER: Guernica Editions, Ostensibly, Office Politics is about the modern workplace. It is about the relationship of the powerless to the powerful: the anxieties, tensions, frustrations, the daily psychological fare of those who have to satisfy the whims of bosses, work ever harder for the same pay (or less) while the snarling of the pit bulls of unemployment can be faintly heard through the ornate doors of the company fortress. Still, this is no sociological treatise set to free verse. Nor is it a lighthearted comedy a la Dolly Parton and Lilly Tomlin -- although the poet does refuse her sharp commentaries about office queens, workers (and drones) with humor. Poetry is the shorthand of universal messages.
