Alienation and Freedom

The Pornographic Age

Frantz Fanon

Alain Badiou, École Normale Supérieure, France

Edited by Jean Khalfa

Translated by A. J. Bartlett & Justin Clemens, University of Melbourne

Translated by Steven Corcoran Never before published in English, Alienation and Freedom is a rare opportunity to read the last writings of a major 20th-century philosopher, whose disruptive and moving work continues to shape how we look at the world. Frantz Fanon is regarded as a foundational thinker of Postcolonial Studies, bringing together the analysis of colonialism from an objective, historical perspective and an interrogation of its subjective effects on colonizer and colonized alike. This book furthers his powerful intervention into how we think about identity, race and activism and provides a unique insight into Fanon's literary, psychiatric and journalistic theories.

Glimpse of Light New Meditations on First Philosophy Stephen Mumford, Durham University, UK This lively challenge to Descartes, written in the style of Descartes' Meditations, presents a new way of understanding reality. Philosopher Benedict Chilwell faces a crisis of confidence and hopes to resolve it in a self-imposed exile, far away in the north of Norway. From his cabin, he begins his meditations, pondering the mysteries of philosophy in the dark Arctic winter. In six days approaching the return of the light, Benedict discovers a basis for certainty and tries his best to convince his hosts. Through doubts, questions and reasoning, Chilwell inadvertently follows in Descartes’ footsteps.

Through a close analysis of Genet's play The Balcony, this is a searing critique of the current age and its democratic systems of power. Badiou argues that true radical politics must begin by dismantling the obscene or pornographic relations of parliamentary capitalism. Accompanied by critical commentary from Badiou translators and scholars A.J. Bartlett and Justin Clemens, he asks us to confront the debasement of the political realities of the present, to galvanize ourselves to action.

How to Be a Marxist in Philosophy Louis Althusser, 16 October 1918 – 22 October 1990) was a French Marxist philosopher. Translated by G. M. Goshgarian With a superb introduction from translator and Althusser archivist G.M. Goshgarian, this provocative, and often controversial book reinspires contemporary Marxist thought and reinvigorates our notions of what political activism can be. In this first ever English translation, one of the most famous Marxist philosophers of the 20th century shares his concept of what it means to be a forceful and fruitful political thinker.

Judged

Kafka

Why No One Will Truly Understand You

In Light of the Accident

Ziyad Marar, Deputy Managing Director and Executive Vice President Global Publishing at SAGE Publications

Howard Caygill, Kingston University, UK

Everyone fears being judged. One foolish tweet can destroy a career, one careless image can damage a life. We cannot be social beings without participating in acts of judgement; our increasing preoccupation with online 'selves' and our reputations intensifies this experience. Marar's provocative exploration of our contemporary world responds to the fragility of reputation and our determination to judge at every available opportunity. Tracing our judgemental journeys using examples from the everyday and popular culture including ‘Breaking Bad’, Shakespeare and Philip Roth, Marar questions whether, in the end, our reputations are as important as we think they are.

A philosophical call to arms, Alain Badiou offers a compelling indictment of our contemporary society.

The author of the bestselling On Resistance provides us with a radical way of reading Kafka: via the pivotal theme of the accident. Caygill reveals how Kafka’s legacy was governed by a series of accidents, such as Max Brod’s posthumous publication of the novels, or the misguided correction of ‘misprints’. Focusing on the accident casts light on the role of ‘media’ in Kafka’s work, particularly visual media and photography. Overturning notions of the ‘kafkaesque’, Kafka’s work becomes a narration of defiance which affirms, often comically, the role of error and contingency in historical struggle, with emphasis on radical Judaism, European socialist and feminist movements, and subaltern histories.

Our Country

Corresponding with Ludwig

Britain, Resolution and Resolve

Edited by Brian McGuinness

Roger Scruton

Translated by Peter Winslow Translated into English for the first time, these letters between Ludwig and his siblings reveal a side of Wittgenstein few would have known. Their intimacy offers new insights into his relationships and groundbreaking ideas. Using a different tone for each of his siblings, he creates distinct portraits. The open tone to Hermine, a mother figure; the practical, joking tone to Paul; the loving and witty tone to Helene Salzer. Spanning fifty years, the letters collected here illuminate Wittgenstein as never before.

In this bracingly controversial book, Roger Scruton revisits the foundations of our national experience, surveying the British legacy – social, cultural, legal and political – and animating the sentiments that attach us to it. He asks to what are our duties owed, and why? How do we respond to the pull of globalisation, to mass migration, to the rise of Islam and to the decline of Christian belief? Do we accept these things as inevitable, or do we resist? And if we resist, on what basis do we build? An invitation to join, rather than an attempt to condemn, Our Country is also a summary of Scruton’s life’s work as a writer and philosopher.

Dissenting Words Jacques Rancière, University of Paris VIII, France

The Existentialist's Guide to Death, the Universe and Nothingness

Edited and translated by Emiliano Battista

Gary Cox, University of Birmingham, UK

Interviews with Jacques Rancière

Through these dialogues Jacques Rancière offers us an incisive overview of his philosophical project, from its beginnings during the ‘Red Years’ in France to its most recent formulations. It supplements Rancière's scholarly and theoretical works with his reflections on the continuities, turns, ruptures and deviations in his thought. In a conversational style brimming with informative asides into current events, Dissenting Words draws upon examples ranging from the history of the workers' struggle to literature, cinema and the arts - all of which we have learned to associate with Rancière.

‘Here the bestselling author of How to Be an Existentialist delivers a crunchier, more technical reading of the views of Sartre, De Beauvoir, Heidegger and others ... Cox leads the reader well through vivid examples’ - The Guardian An entertaining philosophical guide to life, love, hate, freedom, sex, anxiety, God and death; a guide to everything and nothing. Taking us on a journey which fascinates, provokes and inspires, Cox explores existentialism's uncompromising view of human reality. Addressing the challenge of living honestly and authentically, he sets the wisdom of the existentialist philosophers alongside the wit of great musicians and comedians.

Bloomsbury Revelations Bringing together books and thinkers that have opened up startling new ways of looking at the world, the Bloomsbury Revelations series celebrates the originality and excellence of Bloomsbury’s non-fiction publishing, this is an essential library of the thinkers who have fundamentally shaped the way we see the modern world.

Logics of Worlds

Neither Man nor Beast

Being and Event II

Feminism and the Defense of Animals

Alain Badiou, École Normale Supérieure, France

Carol J. Adams, Activist and Freelance Author, USA

Translated by Alberto Toscano Logics of Worlds is the sequel to Alain Badiou's masterpiece, Being and Event. Tackling the questions that had been left open by Being and Event, and answering many of his critics in the process, Badiou supplements his pioneering treatment of multiple being with a daring and complex theory of the worlds in which truths and subjects make their mark - what he calls a materialist dialectic. Drawing on his most ambitious philosophical predecessors Leibniz, Kant, Hegel, Kierkegaard, Lacan, Deleuze – Badiou ends this important later work with an impassioned call to 'live for an Idea'.

In this landmark work of animal rights activism, Carol Adams - the bestselling author of The Sexual Politics of Meat - explores the intersections and common causes of feminism and the defense of animals. Neither Man Nor Beast explores the common link between cultural attitudes to women and animals in modern Western culture that have enabled the systematic exploitation of both. A vivid work that takes in environmental ethics, theological perspectives and feminist theory, the Bloomsbury Revelations edition includes a new foreword by the author and new images illustrating the continuing relevance of the book today.

Roots for Radicals

Francis Bacon

Organizing for Power, Action, and Justice

The Logic of Sensation

Edward T. Chambers

Gilles Deleuze

The successor to the legendary activist Saul Alinsky, Edward T. Chambers pioneered a set of principles and practices that have guided community organizations throughout the US and the world. Roots for Radicals remains his definitive reflection on these fundamental principles of community activism: how, as public citizens, we can navigate the gap between the world as it is and as it should be, between self-interest and self-sacrifice and in doing so create lasting change for our communities. In the face of the increasingly turbulent politics of the 21st-century, Chambers’s book has never been more relevant.

In this landmark text by one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century, Gilles Deleuze takes the paintings of Francis Bacon as his object of his study. The book presents a deep engagement with Bacon's work and the nature of art. Deleuze analyzes the distinctive innovations that came to mark Bacon's style: the isolation of the figure, the violation deformations of the flesh, the complex use of color, the method of chance, and the use of the triptych form.

Beyond the Chains of Illusion

Henri Lefebvre

My Encounter with Marx and Freud

Edited by Stuart Elden, Elizabeth Lebas & Eleonore Kofman

Erich Fromm

Henri Lefebvre is widely recognized as one of the most influential social theorists of the Twentieth Century. His writings on cities, everyday life, and the production of space have become hugely influential across Cultural Studies, Sociology, Geography and Architecture. Key Writings presents the full range of Lefebvre's thought in a single volume. The selection of essays spanning 1933 to 1990, reinforce the relevance of Lefebvre's work to current debates in social theory, politics and philosophy.

First published in 1962 Beyond the Chains of Illusion is Fromm’s landmark book about Marx and Freud. Here he delivers original readings of these hugely influential thinkers and, in doing so, offers us new ways of understanding the individual and society. Perhaps even more revealing than these readings is the insight we get into Fromm’s own thought and the political and social contexts in which he formed his ideas. Including a foreword by Fromm’s Literary Executor, Rainer Funk, this is unique introduction to Marx and Freud and also to Fromm’s life and thought.

Entre Nous Emmanuel Levinas Entre Nous is a major collection of essays representing the culmination of Emmanuel Levinas's philosophy. Bringing together his most important work in a single volume the book reveals the development of his thought over nearly forty years of committed inquiry. Here he engages with issues of suffering, love, religion, culture, justice, human rights, and legal theory and each issue is discussed in relation to the ethical dimensions of otherness. Like much of his work this text bridges several major gaps in the evolution of Continental philosophy, between modernism and postmodernism, phenomenology and poststructuralism, ethics and ontology.

Can't We Make Moral Judgements? Mary Midgley In this classic text, the renowned moral philosopher Mary Midgely turns a spotlight on the ever popular stance in society that we should not make moral judgements on others. She interrogates our scepticism about making moral judgements and shows how the question of whether or not we can make them must inevitably affect our attitudes to the law, its institutions and events that occur in our daily lives. Calling upon Nietzsche and Sartre, P.D. James and the Bhagavad Gita, she suggests our mistrust of moral judgements may be making life even harder for us than it should be.

Evolution and Conversion

The Sex Appeal of the Inorganic

Dialogues on the Origins of Culture

Philosophies of Desire in the Modern World

René Girard

P R I M A RY P H I L O S O P H Y

Key Writings

Mario Perniola

Presented as a series of conversations, Evolution and Conversion is a thorough discussion of the major tenets of Girard's thought. One of the most brilliant intellectuals of the 20th century, this book examines his theory on the imitative nature of desire; the violent origin of culture; and his consideration of an evolutionary perspective to explain the emergence of culture and institutions. In the final chapters his provocative re-reading of the Biblical texts reveals an enduring process of historical awareness of the presence and function of collective violence in our world.

In The Sex Appeal of the Inorganic, Mario Perniola puts forth the radical argument that we are shifting away from organic sexuality, based on desire and pleasure, and moving towards a more neutral inorganic and artificial sexuality, a sexuality always available but indifferent to beauty, age or form. Perniola takes the reader on a tour of Western philosophy, from Descartes, Kant and Hegel to Heidegger, Wittgenstein and Sartre, to reframe our understanding of personal experience and the aesthetic world around us.

Enduring Time

Philosophies of Difference

Lisa Baraitser, Birkbeck, University of London, UK

A Critical Introduction to Non-philosophy

Permanent debt, violent conflict, climate change, economic instability, and widening social inequalities have led to dramatic changes in the ways we imagine and experience time. How do we go on when we seem to be living in the ‘end times’, trapped in a state of ‘non-stop inertia’? Enduring Time proposes some alternative relations of time which provide hopeful alternatives to the dominating models of oppression, limitation and exploitation. A strikingly original philosophy of time which also provides a rigorous and detailed survey of contemporary theories of time, Enduring Time is an indispensable read for those attempting to live meaningfully.

Francois Laruelle, Université de Paris X, Nanterre, France A crucial text in Laruelle's oeuvre and an excellent starting point for understanding his broader project, Philosophies of Difference offers a theoretical and critical analysis of the philosophers of difference after Hegel and Nietzsche, introducing a new theoretical practice of non-philosophical thought. Rather than presenting a narrative historical overview, Laruelle provides a series of rigorous critiques of the interpretations of difference in Hegel, Nietzsche and Deleuze, Heidegger and Derrida. From Laruelle's innovative theoretical perspective, the forms of philosophical difference that emerge as variations upon a unique, highly abstract structure of philosophical decision, the self-posing and self-legitimating essence of philosophy itself.

Film is filled with philosophy. What can Blade Runner show us about Heidegger? What does Revolutionary Road reveal about Beauvoir?

Translated by Edi Pucci

Shaw demonstrates existential philosophies in action with close readings of classic writings from the thought of the most significant existentialist thinkers, illustrated through cult and popular cinema that reveal striking parallels. Individual chapters include useful excerpts from the original texts being discussed and illustrated. Organized chronologically, like most existentialism anthologies, this is ideal as a textbook for an intermediate level existentialism course, or as a companion to a selection of primary texts.

The first English translation of Massimo Cacciari’s work The Witholding Power announces a prominent and provocative figure in Italian philosophy and political thought. A notoriously complex thinker, this title offers a starting point for entering into the very heart of his philosophy, providing a comprehensive and synthetic insight into his interpretation of Christian political theology and leftist Italian political theory more generally. With an introduction by Howard Caygill contextualizing the work within the history of Italian thought, this title will offer those coming to Cacciari for the first time a searing insight into his political, theological and philosophical milieu.

Posthuman Glossary

General Ecology

Edited by Rosi Braidotti, Utrecht University, The Netherlands & Maria Hlavajova

The New Ecological Paradigm

We are experiencing a “posthuman condition”; the combination of global capitalism, migration, technological advances, environmental destruction, and war on terror, with a troublesome reiteration of old, unresolved socio-political problems means the concept of the human as we knew it has undergone dramatic transformations. Posthuman Glossary outlines the critical terms of posthumanity in present-day artistic and intellectual work. It builds on the broad thematic topics of Anthropocene/Capitalocene, ecosophies, digital activism, algorithmic cultures and security and the inhuman. A completely original and unique work, it bridges disciplines, terminologies, and critical communities, unlocking the terms of the posthuman for students and researchers alike.

Edited by Erich Hörl, Leuphana University of Lüneburg, Germany Ecology has become one of the most urgent and lively fields in the humanities and sciences. In a dramatic widening of scope beyond its original concern with the coexistence of living organisms within a natural environment, it is now recognized there is a proliferation of ecologies across the social, technological, and psychological. In this ambitious and radical new volume of writings, some of the most exciting contemporary thinkers reveal and theorize the extent of the ecologization of existence as the effect of our contemporary socio-technological condition: together, they bring out the complexity and urgency of the challenge of ecological thought.

Badiou and Indifferent Being

Character

A Critical Introduction to Being and Event

Jay R. Elliott, Bard College, USA

William Watkin

Why do people do evil? How can we do better? Philosophers in the tradition of 'virtue ethics' argue that we act badly due to failures in our character, and by practicing courage, honesty, and fairness we can improve ourselves. However 'situationist' philosophers argue that our situation matters more than our character.

‘Watkin’s is a very important book. It returns us to what is most gripping about Badiou: his stark, courageous and deeply uncontemporary asceticism.’ Andrew Gibson, former Research Professor of Modern Literature and Theory, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK This is the first systematic account of Badiou’s Being and Event since the dramatic modifications he made to his philosophy in Logics of Worlds, published twenty years later. Uniquely, it also draws out the category of indifference as a central component of Badiou’s ontology. It is a seminal source text for all Badiou readers.

Suspensions Series Editors: Jason Bahbak Mohaghegh, Jersey City University, USA & Lucian Stone, The University of North Dakota, USA This series interrupts standardized discourses involving the Middle East and the Islamicate world by introducing emerging ideas. The incisive works included in this series provide a counterpoint to the reigning canons of theory, theology, philosophy, literature, and criticism through investigations of vast experiential typologies - such as violence, mourning, vulnerability, tension, and humour - in light of contemporary Middle Eastern and Islamicate thought.

Transgression and the Inexistent A Philosophical Vocabulary Mehdi Belhaj Kacem Translated by P. Burcu Yalim A contemporary philosopher of Tunisian origin, Kacem is published here in paperback, in English, for the first time. Transgression and the Inexistent lays out the essential concepts of his philosophical system: it is the most complete and synthetic book of his philosophical work, as well as being one of the most provocative in its claims. As a Francophone author engaging with contemporary world thought, he is able to develop novel philosophical perspectives that reach beyond the Middle East or the Continental, and the East/ West binary.

Gilles Deleuze, Postcolonial Theory, and the Philosophy of Limit Réda Bensmaïa, Brown University, USA Réda Bensmaïa is one of the most important voices in the study of Gilles Deleuze. This volume is a remarkable experiment, bringing Deleuze’s thought into that other territory which Bensmaïa has so impressively travelled, postcolonial theory. Bensmaïa shows how Deleuze’s philosophical and political cartography can be used to chart paths through postcolonial theory, demonstrating that any attempt to think through the questions raised by postcolonial theory will have to take at least some of its bearings using Deleuze’s writings.

The wholly original arguments, perspectives and research findings in titles in this series make it an important and stimulating resource for students and academics from across the discipline.

Phenomenology and the Social Context of Psychiatry

Deleuze and Becoming

Social Relations, Psychopathology, and Husserl's Philosophy

Deleuze’s concept of ‘becoming’ provides the key to his notoriously complex metaphysics, yet he never systematized it. Bankston tracks both the concept across Deleuze’s writings and its underlying ontological and temporal processes, arguing that expressions of becoming(s) appear in one of two temporal registers: an appropriation of Nietzsche’s concept of eternal return, and Bergsonian duration.

Edited by Magnus Englander, Malmö University, Sweden Finding a common language between psychiatrists, anti-psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers, this is an interdisciplinary volume which establishes the essence and foundations of phenomenological philosophy as it relates to psychiatry and the social world. Using Husserl as a point of departure, empathy, interpersonal understanding, we-intentionality, ethics, citizenship, and social inclusion are investigated in relation to psychopathology, nosology, and clinical research. Drawing upon the rich classical and contemporary phenomenological tradition, it touches on a broad range of thinkers such as Deleuze, Levinas, and R.D. Laing.

Samantha Bankston, Sierra Nevada College, USA

Overturning the criticisms launched by Žižek and Badiou, with conceptual encounters between Bergson, Nietzsche, Leibniz, Borges, Klossowski, and Proust, the newly charted concept of double becoming provides a roadmap to the totality of Deleuze’s philosophy.

This book is an important contribution to the longstanding debate concerning Martin Heidegger's association with some of the most significant and terrible events of the 20th century: National Socialism and the Holocaust. This is a difficulty topic, but this book moves the entire debate on 'Heidegger and the Political' forward.

He shows how Heidegger can assist us in reflecting on human beings' spiritual needs in a time threatened by the seemingly unstoppable reduction of communication to information, management-speak, and data.'

Keith Whitmoyer, New York City College of Technology, USA

1) by unearthing a new reading of the Lacanian category of the real 2) by demonstrating the political and cultural ingenuity of Lacan’s concept of the real, and by positioning this against the more reductive analyses of the concept by Slavoj Žižek, Alain Badiou, Saul Newman, Todd May, Joan Copjec, Jacques Rancière, and others 3) by arguing that the subject exists intimately within the real.

Mortal Thought

This book argues that at play in the thought of Merleau-Ponty is a philosophy of “ontological lateness”: the manner in which philosophical reflection is fated to lag behind its objects and, therefore, an absolute grasp on being remains beyond its reach. Merleau-Ponty articulates this philosophy against the backdrop of what he calls “cruel thought”, a style of reflecting that seeks resolution by limiting, circumscribing, and arresting its object. By contrast, the philosophy of ontological lateness seeks no such final unveiling but is characterized by its ability to accept the veiling of being and its own constitutive lack of punctuality.

Beginning with the point of departure of Hölderlin in Kant and Fichte, this book outlines the novel philosophical innovations of Hölderlin, and their influence upon philosophy from the 19th century to the present day. Mortal Thought lays out a concise, comprehensive account of the emergence of Hölderlin as philosopher and poet, of his influence upon the four dominant strands of Continental philosophy – Nietzsche, Heidegger, Critical Theory and Poet-structuralism – and of his continuing relevance to philosophical research today.

Hegel and Resistance History, Politics and Dialectics Edited by Bart Zantvoort, Nexus Institute, Netherlands & Rebecca Comay, University of Toronto, Canada The concept of resistance has always been central to the reception of Hegel’s philosophy. This book brings together established and new voices in this field to touch firstly upon the political: is there a place, according to Hegel, for political resistance, or must we submit to the power of the state? Secondly, what is the role of resistance in history, and in to relation to historical progress? And finally, does his system allow for moments of resistance or new insights? Modern philosophy can be viewed as thinking in the wake of Hegel, but the question of how to resist Hegel – and whether he needs to be resisted – remains crucial.

Egalitarian Moments: From Descartes to Rancière Devin Zane Shaw, University of Ottawa, Canada Jacques Rancière’s work has challenged many of the assumptions of contemporary continental philosophy by placing equality at the forefront of emancipatory politics. Drawing on the claim that egalitarian politics persistently appropriates elements from political philosophy to engage new forms of dissensus, Devin Zane Shaw argues that Rancière also provides an opportunity to reconsider modern philosophy and aesthetics in light of the question of equality. From engaging debates about political subjectivity from Descartes to Sartre, to delineating the egalitarian stakes in aesthetics from Schiller to Badiou, this book presents a concise tour through egalitarian moments found within histories of modern philosophy.

Desire in Ashes

Walter Benjamin and Giorgio Agamben

Deconstruction, Psychoanalysis, Philosophy

Edited by Brendan Moran, University of Calgary, Canada & Carlo Salzani, Monash University, Australia 'The articles in this volume take up the challenge of rereading Benjamin after Agamben, and do so with the utmost seriousness, erudition, argumentativeness and incisiveness. Clarifying without simplifying, and extending without falsification, this collection will be indispensable not only for students and scholars of Benjamin and Agamben, but for its critical discussions concerning the relations between myth, law, violence nand justice.'

Edited by Simon Morgan Wortham, Kingston, University London, UK & Chiara Alfano This collection considers: how best to recall deconstruction? Rather than reduce it to an object of historical importance or memory, these essays analyze its significance in terms of complex matrices of desire; provoked in this way, deconstruction cannot be dismissed as 'dead', nor unproblematically defended as alive and well.

Justin Clemens, Senior Lecturer in the School of Culture and Communication at the University of Melbourne, Australia

Repositioned on the threshold of life-death, deconstruction profoundly complicates the field of critical thought which still struggles to memorialize, inter, or reduce the deconstructive corpus to ashes.

There is little doubt that it will form an important contribution to debates about the work of the philosopher Jacques Derrida, but also the relationship between ethics, politics, ontology, psychoanalysis, and it’s designated “object”, the existential and moral phenomenon of mourning.’ - Etienne Balibar, Distinguished Professor, Comparative Literature, School of Humanities, UC Irvine, USA

The first of its kind, presenting the relationship between these two thinkers on elements of contemporary culture that they shared interests in. Including the nature of life in the modern world, philosophy as a way of life, the book discusses the ways in which we ought to read and write about other philosophers.

The question of nihilism is always a question of truth. When truth is taken as the measure of existence, the crisis of truth becomes an experience of the nothingness of existence. How, then, did truth become this measure? The short answer is: philosophy. The philosophical will to truth opens the door to nihilism since it both makes truth the utmost thing and continually calls truth into question. Considering the crisis of truth and the loss of world that occurs within nihilistic thought to be inseparable, Baker develops his central insight in a wide-ranging study from antiquity to the present, from ancient Cynics, St Paul, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Foucault, Agamben, and Badiou.

On Freedom

The Critique of Humanity

Technology, Capital, Medium

Andrew Gibson, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

Peter Trawny, Bergische University, Germany

‘Misanthropy is elegant, irresistibly humorous, and genuinely informative, on a subject which has a most fascinating history and, as Gibson shows, is also pressingly relevant for the here and now. Accessibly written and eminently readable Gibson’s is a mature critical voice, learned, intelligent and lucid, provoking and enlightening the reader at every turn.’ - Jonathan Dollimore Gibson moves deftly from discussing misanthropy in relation to internal sin, social alienation, and comic performativity, to consumerist culture and the horrors of colonialism. Through Moliere, Swift, Beckett, Twain, and Woolf, Gibson addresses with affection and empathy whether a philosophy of the misanthrope is possible, and ultimately explores what kind of creature the human really is.

How to Sleep The Art, Biology and Culture of Unconsciousness Matthew Fuller, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK Humans spend around a third of their lives asleep. However is one that is relatively unattended to in terms of cultural, political, or aesthetic thought. Drawing on the history and findings of sleep science How to Sleep argues that sleep is a complex vital phenomena with a dynamic aesthetic and biological consistency, and complements biopolitical accounts of sleep: a space of recuperative passivity disrupted and capitalised upon by media systems, work and commodification. Arguing through examples drawn from contemporary, modern and renaissance art, literature, film and computational media cultures, this book argues for a complex interplay between biology and culture.

Spinoza's Authority Volume II Resistance and Power in the Political Treatises Edited by A. Kiarina Kordela, Macalester College, USA & Dimitris Vardoulakis, University of Western Sydney, Australia Spinoza’s political thought has been subject to a significant revival of interest in recent years, helping scholars reinterpret and rethink the political present. Spinoza’s Authority makes a significant contribution to this ongoing reception and utilization of Spinoza’s political thought, and takes the 1670 text, Theologico-Political Treatise, as a primary focal point. Featuring internationally established theorists of Spinoza’s work and taking the concept of authority as an original framework, this books asks: How is authority related to law, memory, and conflict in Spinoza’s political thought? And what are the social and historical processes that produce authority, power and resistance?

Translated by Richard Lambert How do we challenge the structures of late capitalism if all possible media through which to do this is inescapably capitalist? This urgent political question is at the heart of Peter Trawny's major new work. The notion of personal or societal freedom has never been more controversial or, seemingly, more far from our grasp. Trawny builds an almost Utopian vision of how to break out of the mediums in which we operate and experience a new kind of freedom. An ambitious, lively yet completely rigorous work, this book offers a fascinating philosophical vision of how to live and live well.

The Political Philosophy of G. A. Cohen Back to Socialist Basics Nicholas Vrousalis, University of Cambridge, UK The first full-length study on the unity of Cohen's political thought. It proceeds thematically, studying a range of fundamental concepts such as materialism, freedom, equality, fraternity and the market, all the while revisiting Cohen’s seminal treatment of Marx, Nozick, Dworkin, Rawls and Sen. Nicholas Vrousalis brings together the diverse strands of argument in Cohen's thought and critically reconstructs them in the context of contemporary debates in social and political theory. This reconstruction highlights common threads running through Cohen's numerous contributions to contemporary philosophy, without underrating the inevitable tensions between them.

The History and Philosophy of Science: A Reader

Introduction to Applied Ethics

Edited by Daniel J. McKaughan, Boston College, USA & Holly VandeWall, Boston College, USA

Few people make moral judgments by taking theory first and then “applying” it. This ethics textbook, purpose built for undergraduates in mind, works in the same way as we do when we begin thinking ethically – by encountering practical moral problems and then introducing the theory for understanding and interrogating the issues.

Robert L. Holmes, University of Rochester, USA

With seminal texts from antiquity to the end of the 19th century accessible in one volume for the first time, this reader covers major classical, medieval and modern texts and figures from the natural sciences, such as including Aristotle, Copernicus, Galileo, Descartes, Newton, Darwin and Faraday. Readings are grouped by topic to clarify the development of methods and the unification of theories. Each section includes an introduction, further reading suggestions and discussion questions, allowing students to develop the skills needed to read, interpret, and critically engage with central problems and ideas from the history and philosophy of science.

Holmes presents real examples of recognizable ethical problems, from widely resolved judgements around racism and sexism, to controversial debates such as assisted suicide, with supportive philosophical source material. We are encouraged not to accept uncritically what anyone says; the mission of the book is to foster informed, independent critical thinking.

Getting Science Wrong Paul Dicken, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, Germany Getting Science Wrong discusses some of the most popular misconceptions about science, and their continuing role in the public imagination. Drawing upon the history and philosophy of science it challenges wide-spread assumptions and misunderstandings, from creationism and climate change to the use of statistics and computer modeling. The result is an engaging introduction to contentious issues in the philosophy of science and a new way of looking at the role of science in society.

Radical Skepticism and the Shadow of Doubt A Philosophical Dialogue Eli Hirsch, Brandeis University, USA Using the imagined dialogue between three aging philosophy professors, Eli Hirsch simplifies the complex subject of radical skepticism by bringing to life the problem of whether or not we can ever have any knowledge of the world around us. Hirsch’s three characters make the decision to clear up matters concerning skepticism once and for all. They are differentiated not merely by their different views but also by their pointedly contrasting philosophical sensibilities. As they continue to discuss, debate and breakdown the problem, they introduce the reader to ideas and thinkers at the very heart of philosophy.

The Bloomsbury Companion to Bertrand Russell

The Selected Writings of Maurice O’Connor Drury

Edited by Russell Wahl, Idaho State University, USA

On Wittgenstein, Philosophy, Religion and Psychiatry

Bringing new insights into Russell’s relationship with his contemporaries, a team of experts explore his life-long battles with important philosophical issues. They consider how he influenced thinkers and schools of thought, from Schröder, Frege and Meinong to Wittgenstein and the Vienna Circle, while also covering his impact on individual issues in epistemology, logic, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, and political philosophy. Importantly this companion discusses often overlooked topics. Focusing on Russell’s later views, including his moral philosophy and his politics, reveals that Russell did make significant contributions to ethics - both theoretical and practical - in the course of his career.

Frank Cioffi: The Philosopher in Shirt-Sleeves David Ellis, University of Kent, UK & Nicholas Bunnin, University of Oxford, UK Frank Cioffi gained a considerable public reputation in Freudian and Wittgensteinian circles. This is an account of his conversation, capturing the sharp intelligence Cioffi was able to bring to bear on life's biggest problems. Tackling subjects such as art, science, understanding others and depression, David Ellis vividly describes how a philosopher who was profoundly influenced by Wittgenstein dealt with life. Followed by a post-script in which Nicholas Bunnin situates him in a more strictly academic context, this is a mixture of personal portrait and academic introduction that provides an elegant and enjoyable tribute to Cioffi as both man and philosopher.

Starting with the digital's technical characteristics, captured by the binary code, this study asks how the digital domain of abstract logic encounters the human world. Focusing on formal code and the elements of creative production, it shows how encounters between the actual and the digital must cross an ontological divide: the gap between the productive materiality of the human world and the reductive abstraction of binary code. Constructing a map of digital ontology, exploring the potentials of programming and using gaming as the ideal test of the ontology, it guides future practices and shapes academic research in digital technologies.

Metanoia A Speculative Ontology of Language, Thinking, and the Brain Armen Avanessian, Free University Berlin, Germany & Anke Hennig, Free University Berlin, Germany To see the world in a new light is to accept that our thinking has been irrevocably transformed. How is that possible? Is it merely an intellectual process without any impact on the world outside our brains? To tackle these questions, this innovative book mobilizes discussions from linguistics, literary theory, analytic philosophy of language, and cognitive science. Metanoia— meaning literally a change of mind or a conversion—rearticulates linguistic consciousness by underlining the poetic, creative moment of language and sheds light on the ability of language to transform not only our thinking but the world around us as well.

Wittgenstein’s philosophy can help us to untie the knots in our understanding of the relationship between science and religion. The common perspectives—for or against religion—are based on the same question, 'Do religion and science fit together or not?' This book steps out of the polemical arguments to focus on the unique natures of science and religion—without discrediting or endorsing either perspective. As Wittgenstein would say, we need to show the fly out of the bottle. We need to trace the arguments backwards to the fly bottle’s exit. The knotted perspectives stuck in the fly bottle are, in particular, religious fundamentalism and scientific atheism. Surprisingly, integration can also be stuck in the fly bottle when it ignores differences and blurs similarities within the fly bottle.

Free Will and Epistemology A Defence of the Transcendental Argument for Freedom Robert Lockie, University of West London, UK In the first in-depth study of the transcendental argument for decades, Robert Lockie defends a modern version of the famous transcendental argument for free will: that we could not be justified in undermining a strong notion of free will, as a strong notion of free will is required for any such process of undermining to be itself epistemically justified. By arguing for a conception of internalism that goes back to the early days of the internalistexternalist debates, he draws on work by Richard Foley, William Alston and Alvin Plantinga to explain the importance of epistemic deontology and its role in the transcendental argument.

Series Editor: James R. Beebe, The University of Buffalo, USA Empirical and experimental philosophy is generating tremendous excitement, producing unexpected results that are challenging traditional philosophical methods. This series responds to this trend, bringing together some of the most influential voices in the field to understand the approach and measure its impact in contemporary philosophy. The result is a series that captures past and present developments and anticipates future research directions.

Experimental Metaphysics Edited by David Rose, Rutgers University, USA Metaphysics, almost entirely neglected by experimental philosophers, is the central focus of Advances in Experimental Metaphysics. Opening up the discussion for the first time, it systematically addresses the question of how cognitive science might be relevant to metaphysics. With contributions from cognitive scientists and philosophers, chapters focus on theoretical issues involving the role of cognitive science in metaphysics. Alongside free will, objects and causation, they look at empirical developments on folk thinking about metaphysical issues, raising doubts about whether the indicated theories of composition are beholden to folk judgments in the first place and reviewing the evidence for purpose-based thinking.

Truth, Time and History: A Philosophical Inquiry Sophie Botros, University of London, UK Breaking impasses within the narrower analytic debates concerning the semantic anti-realists and the truth value link realists, this original study adopts a broader approach to understand the extent to which the past exists independently. It draws on the work of Dummet, Smart and Prior as well as historians such as Collingwood and Oakeshot and reveals underlying links between the realist/anti-realist debate. By combining insights from analytic and continental philosophy and history to show how the legitimacy of discourse about the past can be sustained, it presents a convincing argument for the unreality of the past, and its inherence in the present.

PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION

Evil: A Guide for the Perplexed Chad Meister, Bethel College, USA "A remarkably concise and accessible introduction to the 'problem of evil.' Meister summarises a quarter-century of academic debate and philosophical reflection in a book that can be read in an evening." Graham Veale, Apologetics 315 Evil is ubiquitous. But why does it exist, why is it so pervasive, and how should we think about and respond to it? In a rigorous but lively way, Evil: A Guide for the Perplexed examines philosophical and theological problems, traditional and recent, raised by the existence of widespread evil. A thoughtful, engaging, even-handed guide to examining both classical and contemporary issues raised by the reality and ubiquity of evil.

David J. Kangas In this interpretation of Kierkegaard's understudied religious discourses, Errant Affirmations not only opens up a new reading of Kierkegaard but elucidates his 'religious' texts and places them organically within his philosophy as a whole. Through close and clear readings, David Kangas argues that contemporary philosophical themes - gift, temporality, language, death, nothingness, economy and selfhood- are evident in these 'religious' works. The book argues that Kierkegaard’s “ontology,” fully emerges only in these discourses, which are organized around an “errant” kind of affirmation: an affirmation of existence that is without conditions, capable of affirming life even amidst its finitude and suffering.

Edited by Paul Copan, Palm Beach Atlantic University, USA & William Lane Craig, Houston Baptist University, USA

This anthology on the philosophical arguments for the finitude of the past asks: Is an infinite series of past events metaphysically possible? Should actual infinites be restricted to theoretical mathematics, or can an actual infinite exist in the concrete world? These essays by kalam proponents and detractors engage in lively debate about the nature of infinity and its conundrums; about frequently-used kalam argument paradoxes of Tristram Shandy, the Grim Reaper, and Hilbert’s Hotel; and about the infinity of the future.

A Dictionary of Philosophy of Religion, Second Edition

The kalam cosmological argument—perhaps the most discussed philosophical argument for God’s existence in recent decades— maintains that whatever begins to exist must have a cause. And since the universe began to exist, there must be a transcendent cause of its beginning, a conclusion which is confirmatory of theism. So this medieval argument for the finitude of the past has received fresh wind in its sails from recent scientific discoveries. This collection reviews and assesses the merits of the latest scientific evidences for the universe’s beginning. It ends with the kalam argument’s conclusion that the universe has a cause—a personal cause with properties of theological significance.

Series Editor: Miles Hollingworth, author of Saint Augustine of Hippo Reading Augustine presents a new line of books offering personal and close readings of St. Augustine of Hippo from leading philosophers and religious scholars. The aim of the series is to make clear Augustine’s importance to contemporary thought and to present Augustine not only or primarily as a pre-eminent Christian thinker but as a philosophical, spiritual, literary and intellectual icon of the West. Books in the series expose and take as their starting point the special malleability of Augustine’s thought and his unique place in the Western canon.

On Love, Confession, Surrender and the Moral Self

On Creativity, Liberty, Love and the Beauty of the Law

Ian Clausen, Villanova University, USA

Todd Breyfogle, Aspen Institute, USA

Ian Clausen's On Love, Confession, Surrender and the Moral Self describes Augustine’s central ideas on morality and how he arrived at them. Describing an intellectual journey that will resonate especially with readers at the beginning of their own journey, Clausen shows that Augustine’s early writing career was an outworking of his own inner turmoil and discovery, and that both were to summit, triumphantly, on his monumental book Confessions (AD 386-401).

On Creativity, Liberty, Love and the Beauty of the Law introduces readers to Augustine’s understanding of law as an arena in which the possibilities of creative freedom are reconciled with the needs of natural and civil order. It places Augustine’s conception of law in the broader mosaic of his ideas about how human beings are bound together individually, socially, and spiritually. Seasoned readers of Augustine will see this fundamental element of his thought in a different light, even as those less familiar with Augustine are introduced to the thrill of following how he makes sense of the complexities of nature, history, and the human spirit.

On Education, Formation, Citizenship and the Lost Purpose of Learning

On Ethics, Politics and Psychology in the Twenty-First Century

Joseph Clair, George Fox University, USA

John M. Rist, Catholic University of America, USA

Starting from the beginning of book culture in late antiquity, Reading to Save Your Life: Augustinian Insights for Liberal Education explores how Augustine of Hippo shaped our understanding of the moral demands and spiritual possibilities of reading. As he traces how Augustine arrived at his innovative view of reading, Joseph Clair reveals the impact of Augustinian reading throughout the Middle Ages, Renaissance, and up to and beyond the birth of the modern university. A manifesto for mindful reading, Reading to Save Your Life serves as a clarion call for the recovery of Augustinian reading as the basis of liberal education.

John M. Rist takes the reader through Augustine’s ethics, the arguments he made and how he arrived at them, and shows how this moral philosophy remains vital for us today. He looks at thinkers who accept parts of Augustine's evaluation of the human condition but lapse into bleakness and pessimism since for them God has disappeared. In the concluding parts of the book, Rist suggests how a developed version of Augustine's original vision can be applied to the complexities of modern life while also laying out, on the other hand, what our moral universe would look like without Augustine’s contribution to it.

PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION

The Religious Philosophy of Roger Scruton

Idealism and Christian Philosophy

Edited by James Bryson, McGill, Canada

Edited by Steven B. Cowan, Louisiana College, USA & James S. Spiegel, Taylor University in Indiana, USA

Idealism and Christianity Volume 2

Although a religious sensibility ties together his astonishingly prodigious and dynamic output as a philosopher, poet and composer, Scruton’s recent exploration of religious and theological themes from a philosophical point of view has excited a fresh response from scholars. This collection of writings addresses Scruton’s challenging and subtle philosophy of religion for the first time. Including contributions from specialists in the philosophy of religion, the history of thought and culture, aesthetics, and church history, this volume is a unique and fascinating collection of writings that sheds light on this hitherto unexplored aspect of Roger Scruton's philosophy.

Such thinkers as George Berkeley and Jonathan Edwards believed that Idealism is especially amenable to a Christian perspective, both because it provides a plausible way of conceptualizing the world from a theistic standpoint and because it effectively addresses skeptical challenges to the Christian faith. The contributors to this volume explore a variety of ways in which the case can be made for this claim, including potential solutions to philosophical problems related to the nature of time, the ontology of physical objects, the mindbody problem, and the nature of science.

Idealism and Christian Theology

The Political Dialogue of Nature and Grace

Idealism and Christianity Volume 1

Toward a Phenomenology of Chaste Anarchism

Edited by Joshua R. Farris, University of Bristol, UK, S. Mark Hamilton, University of Bristol, UK & James S. Spiegel, Taylor University in Indiana, USA In the recent history of philosophy few works have appeared which favorably portray Idealism as a plausible philosophical view of the world. Considerably less has been written about Idealism as a viable framework for doing theology. Idealism and Christian Theology is an effort to re-introduce Idealism to contemporary Christian theology, and to retrieve ideas and arguments from its most significant modern exponents (especially George Berkeley and Jonathan Edwards) in order to assess its value for present and future theological construction. As a piece of constructive philosophical-theology itself, this volume considers the explanatory power an Idealist ontology has for contemporary Christian theology.

Caitlin Smith Gilson, University of Holy Cross, USA “This is a singular book whose author has an insightful philosophical voice and an engaging theological voice. Caitlin Smith Gilson is intellectually passionate and existentially engaged with themes that spill over the normal academic divisions between theology, politics, philosophy and poetics. More than just a scholarly report on research done by others, it a serious first-order engagement with the matter itself. There is something poetic, rhapsodic, inspired even about this work.

Darren Hudson Hick, Texas Tech University, USA Introducing Aesthetics and the Philosophy of Art raises questions about art, beauty and value that have occupied philosophers since antiquity. By combining historical theories and arguments with examples from contemporary conceptual art, literature and TV soap operas, it presents the background and supplies all the tools required to answer questions about art today. Now in its second edition, it includes a range of updated examples from public art, video games and graffiti, as well as a new chapter on feminism, disability issues and activism.

Deleuze and Art Anne Sauvagnargues, University of Paris, Nanterre, France Sauvagnargues provides an important glimpse into Deleuze's philosophy, reconstructing the social and intellectual contexts that contributed to the trajectory of his thought. Sauvagnargues constructs a precise map of Deleuze's work, pinpointing where key Deleuzian concepts first emerge and eventually disappear. This methodology of "periodization", provides a systematic historiography that remains faithful to Deleuze’s affirmation of the principle of exteriority. Now available in paperback this text gives the reader an inside look into the conceptual and artistic landscape that surrounded Deleuze and the creation of his philosophy.

A Theory of Minimalism

Aesthetic Marx

Marc Botha, Durham University, UK

Edited by Samir Gandesha, Simon Fraser University, Canada & Johan Hartle, University of Amsterdam

Marc Botha offers the first general theory of minimalism, establishing an aesthetic paradigm for rethinking realism in genuinely radical terms. In dialogue with analytic and continental thinkers, Botha develops a constellation of concepts which encapsulate the transhistorcial and transdisciplinary reach of minimalism. From the caves of early Christian ascetics to Samuel Beckett’s late prose, Botha’s bold and provocative arguments equip readers with the tools to engage critically with past, present and future minimalism, and to recognize how, in a culture caught between the poles of excess and austerity, minimalism still matters.

Aesthetics of Ugliness A Critical Edition Karl Rosenkranz Translated into English and available in paperback for the first time, Aesthetics of Ugliness is an indispensable work in modern aesthetics and modernist art, literary studies and cultural theory, which fundamentally reworks conceptual understandings of what it means for a thing to be ugly. Rosenkranz shows ugliness to be the negation of beauty without being reducible to evil, materiality, or other negative terms used its conventional condemnation. This insistence on the specificity of ugliness, and on its dynamic status as a process afflicting aesthetic canons, reflects Rosenkranz's interest in the metropolis and the struggle with modernization and idealist aesthetics.

PHILOSOPHY OF ART & AESTHETICS

Introducing Aesthetics and the Philosophy of Art

‘The crisis of neoliberal capitalism has occasioned an urgent and widespread reassessment of Marx and his significance. Anyone seeking to take its pulse in the discourses of the aesthetic must read Aesthetic Marx.’ Stewart Martin, Editor of Radical Philosophy and Reader in Philosophy and Fine Art, Middlesex University, UK This study differs from previous discussions of Marxist aesthetic theory as it understands the works of Marx themselves as contributions to thinking the aesthetic. This takes into account Marx’s broader sense of the aesthetic as a question of sense perception and the body.

Against Transmission Media Philosophy and the Engineering of Time Timothy Barker A radical investigation of the technical architecture of media such as television, computers, cameras, and cinematography. Barker achieves this through in-depth archive research into the history of the development of media technology, combined with innovative readings of key concepts from philosophers of media. Teaming philosophical inquiry with thorough technical and historical analysis, in a broad range of international case studies, from early experimental cinema and television to contemporary media art and innovative hardware developments, Barker shows how the technical discoveries made in these contexts have engineered the experiences of time in contemporary media culture.

Bare Architecture

Creation and the Function of Art

A Schizoanalysis

Techné, Poiesis and the Problem of Aesthetics

Chris L. Smith, University of Sydney, Australia ‘A brilliant book. In Bare Architecture Chris L. Smith describes architecture as a vehicle for departing from a spatial and temporal present; allowed to stray, to be set adrift, the body arrives at new formations by letting go of the here and now. In escaping, architecture and body become dislocated senses of form and force.

Expanded Painting Ontological Aesthetics and the Essence of Colour Mark Titmarsh, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia The relevance of painting has been questioned many times over the last century, by the arrival of photography, installation art and digital technologies. But rather than accept the death of painting, Mark Titmarsh traces a paradoxical interface between this art form and its opposing forces to define a new practice known as ‘expanded painting’ giving the term historical context, theoretical structure and an important place in contemporary practice. As the formal boundaries tumble, the being of painting expands to become a kind of total art incorporating all other media including sculpture, video and performance.

This book focuses on the relationship between techné and phusis (nature). Moving away from the theoretical Platonism which dominates contemporary understandings of art, Tuckwell instead reinvigorates Aristotelian causation. This book examines the deviations at play within logical forms, the subject, and upon phusis to better situate the role of the function in poiesis (art). In so doing, Tuckwell shows techné to be a property of the living of intelligence coupled to action that not only enacts poiesis or art, but indicates a broader role for creative deviation in nature.

Making Sense

The Intelligence of Place

Art Practice and Transformative Therapeutics

Topographies and Poetics

Lorna Collins, University of Cambridge, UK Making Sense utilises art practice as a pro-active way of thinking that helps us to make sense of the world. Drawing from poststructuralist philosophy, psychoanalysis, arts therapies, and the creative processes of a range of contemporary artists, the book appeals to the fields of art theory, the arts therapies, aesthetics and art practice, whilst it opens the regenerative affects of art-making to everyone. The purpose of the book is to question and understand how and why art has this facility and power, and make the creative and healing properties of certain modes of expression widely accessible, practical and useful.

Jason Tuckwell

Edited by Jeff Malpas, University of Tasmania, Australia Place has become a widespread concept in contemporary work in the humanities. Yet there are relatively few works that focus directly on the concept of place; it remains a concept more often deployed than interrogated. This study fills this gap, drawing together many of the key thinkers currently writing on the topic in topics including anthropology, architecture, geography and philosophy. Providing an exploration of place from various perspectives, it offers a unique point of entry into the contemporary thinking of place and new insights into a concept crucial to understanding our world and ourselves.

The Bloomsbury Encyclopedia of Utilitarianism

Edited by Bertil Belfrage, Lund University, Sweden & Richard Brook, Bloomsburg University, USA

Edited by James E. Crimmins, The University of Western Ontario, Canada

Due to his theory of 'immaterialism' and Schopenhauer's regard of him as the 'father of idealism', George Berkeley (1685-1753) is one of the most important thinkers of the Early Modern period. In twenty six original essays, a team of leading international scholars of Modern Philosophy cover all of Berkeley's writings including unpublished manuscripts and correspondence, thus providing readers with a complete and accessible source of information to the entire corpus of Berkeley's writings. The book includes extended essays on key themes in Berkeley's thought as well as sections covering Berkeley's life and times, and also his intellectual influence and legacy.

"An excellent encyclopedic reference book on the utilitarians and their broad philosophical context. All the essays are well-referenced and also, more usefully, are followed by helpful suggestions for further reading . . . All academic libraries catering for courses in philosophy or in sociological or political theory can be warmly recommended to consider it for acquisition."

Kant’s Transition Project and Late Philosophy Connecting the Opus postumum and Metaphysics of Morals Oliver Thorndike, Loyola University, USA Kant’s Transition Project and Late Philosophy is the first study to provide a close reading of the connection between texts written by Kant during 1796 and 1798. Connecting Kant’s unfinished book project, the Opus postumum, with Metaphysics of Morals, it identifies and clarifies issues at the forefront of Kant’s focus towards the end of his life. By showing that there is not only a Transition Project in Kant’s theoretical philosophy but also a Transition Project in his practical philosophy, it reveals why an accurate assessment of Kant’s critical philosophy requires a new understanding of the Opus postumum and Kant’s parallel late writings on practical philosophy.

Edited by Lee Barrett, Lancaster Theological Seminary, USA Lee Barrett discusses the uniqueness and challenges of Kierkegaard’s approach to theology. Barrett explores Kierkegaard’s thoughts on sin, his descriptions of Jesus Christ as the enactment in time of God’s eternal self-giving compassion, his view of faith and his critique of culturally established Christianity as a form of fatal religious anaesthesia. Each chapter includes its own introduction, explanatory notes, discussion questions and recommendation for further reading in both the primary and secondary literature. Included are links to Kierkegaardian texts provided by the Kierkegaard Research Center of the University of Copenhagen, the Howard and Edna Hong Kierkegaard Library of St Olaf College, as well as the resources of the Søren Kierkegaard Society.

Sartre and Theology Kate Kirkpatrick, University of Hertfordshire and University of Oxford, UK Jean-Paul Sartre was one of the twentieth century's most prominent atheists. But his philosophy was informed by theological writers and themes in ways that have not previously been acknowledged. In Sartre and Theology, Kirkpatrick examines Sartre's philosophical formation and rarely discussed early work, demonstrating how, and which, theology shaped Sartre's thinking. She also shows that Sartre's philosophy - especially Being and Nothingness and Existentialism is A Humanism - contributed to several prominent twentieth-century theologies, examining Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, and Liberation theologians's rebuttals and appropriations of Sartre UK August 2017 • US August 2017 • 224 pages PB 9780567664495 • £16.99 / $22.95 • HB 9780567664501 • £50.00 / $68.00 Individual eBook 9780567664525 • £16.99 / $17.99 Library eBook 9780567664518 Series: Philosophy and Theology • T&T Clark

Karl Barth: Post-Holocaust Theologian? Edited by George Hunsinger, Princeton Theological Seminary, USA The contributors examine numerous topics: the extent to which Barth's theology compares favourably with recent post-Holocaust theologies, Barth’s position on the Jews during the Third Reich, his critique of the German-Christian Völkish church on ethical grounds. The discussion tackles Barth's dialectical “Yes” to Israel’s christological “No”, it unpacks his ground-breaking exegesis of Rom. 9-11; and examines Barth’s rejection of the 1933 Aryan Law that formed the basis for excluding baptized Jews from Christian communities during the Third Reich.

Radical Revelation

John Duns Scotus

Balázs M. Mezei, Peter Pazmany Catholic University, Hungary

Introduction to His Fundamental Positions

Offers a practical and innovative interpretation of divine revelation from a philosophical-theological perspective. Mezei outlines the most important presuppositions of our notion of divine revelation in a historic and semantic setting, and elaborates the methodology of model analysis. By engaging with a wide variety of texts – by Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Joseph Ratzinger – Mezei makes a strong and clear statement when explaining what the radical revelation is, how it can be understood and its overall importance.

Etienne Gilson Translated by James Colbert Étienne Gilson's Jean Duns Scot: Introduction à ses positions fondamentales is widely understood to be one of the most important works on John Duns Scotus’ texts, which are famous for their complexity. This volume is the first translation into English, with an introduction by Trent Pomplun and an Afterword by John Millbank. Scotus’ brilliantly complex and nuanced thought, which earned his the nickname “the Subtle Doctor”, left a mark on discussions of such disparate topics as the semantics of religious language, the problem of universals, divine illumination, and the nature of human freedom.

THEOLOGICAL ETHICS

T&T Clark Enquiries in Theological Ethics Series Editors: Brian Brock, University of Aberdeen, UK & Susan F. Parsons, editor of Studies of Christian Ethics Theologians of differing ecclesial loyalties have found common concerns within the discipline of theological ethics, developing deeper intellectual friendships through fresh critical investigations of the Christian inheritance and the modes of godly being it commends. The series seeks to foster that spirit as a witness of Christian faith in the contemporary world among those of other faiths and of none.

Theological Neuroethics

Communities of Restoration

Christian Ethics Meets the Science of the Human Brain

Ecclesial Ethics and Restorative Justice

Neil Messer, University of Winchester, UK Neil Messer brings together a range of theoretical and practical questions raised by current research on the human brain: about both the ‘ethics of neuroscience’ and the ‘neuroscience of ethics’. Drawing on both theological ethics and the science-and-theology field, Messer discusses cognitive-scientific and neuroscientific studies of religion, arguing that they do not give grounds to dismiss theological perspectives on the human self. He examines a range of topics across the whole field of neuroethics, including consciousness, the self and the value of human life; the neuroscience of morality; determinism, freewill and moral responsibility; and the ethics of cognitive enhancement.

Protestant Virtue and Stoic Ethics Elizabeth Agnew Cochran, Duquesne University, USA

Thomas Noakes-Duncan, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand By bringing together the insights of ecclesial ethics with the theory and practice of restorative justice this book shows why a theological account of the theory and practice of restorative justice is fruitful for articulating and clarifying the witness of the church, especially when faced with conflict or wrongdoing. This can help extend the church’s imagination as to how it might better become God’s community of restoration as it reflects on the ways in which the justice of God is taking shape in its own community.

Theology and Ecology Across the Disciplines On Care for Our Common Home

Examines the dialogue between Roman Stoic ethics and the work of Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Jonathan Edwards. Elizabeth Agnew Cochran illuminates key theological convictions that provide a foundation for constructing a contemporary Protestant virtue ethic consistent with a number of theological beliefs characteristic of the historical Reformed tradition. Building on this conversation, Cochrane develops the claims that faith holds a unique value among possible moral goods; virtue has a unity that coincides with a soteriology that conceives justification as radically transforming a Christian from a sinner to one who is righteous before God; and moral responsibility is realized through a dispositional consent to God’s loving providence.

This volume draws from a variety of academic disciplines and positions to explore the role and nature of environmental responsibility, especially where these intersect with religious or theological viewpoints. The disciplines, including history, philosophy, literature, politics, peace studies, economics, women’s studies, and the ecological sciences have begun to develop distinct perspectives on the urgent ecological issues of our day, as well as pointing toward specific practices at the local and global level.

From Violence to Peace

Reconceiving Sex, Reproduction and Generativity

Theology, Law and Community

Susannah Cornwall, University of Exeter, UK Much Christian theological discussion of family, sex and marriage seems to claim that these institutions are immaculate and immutable. Yet, models of family, parenting and reproduction have been and are clearly still changing. Through engagement with theologies of adoption, pro-natalism, marriage and queer theology, Susannah Cornwall re-considers developments in these models not as distortions or divergences from a divinely-ordained blueprint, but as at peace with the core of these institutions' existence.

Alex Deagon, Queensland University of Technology, Australia This book argues for a theoretically robust Christian theology in a legal community dominated by secular and liberal ideology, where modern law has drifted from its theological origins. As a result of this, the legal system and the ideal of individual and communal relationship it envisages is characterised by antagonism and alienation, or more broadly, violence. The book contends that the way to restore a legal community of peace is to return to a Christian theology which is informed by Trinitarian thinking or the notion of unity in diversity, and reunites faith with reason.

Theology from the Great Tradition

T&T Clark Reader in Theological Anthropology

Steven D. Cone, Lincoln Christian University, USA

Steven D. Cone provides complete and comprehensive coverage of the theological tradition of Aquinas, Maximus, Luther, Irenaeus, Lonergan, von Balthasar, Schmemann, Meyendorf and Barth. Each section of this textbook explores a wide variety of questions – who are we? Is there a God, and if so, what is his nature? Who is Jesus? What does it mean that we live both to sin and righteousness? Designed for classroom use this textbook consists of 15 modules (46 chapters) and offers an extensive range of pedagogical features: sample texts, podcasts, online resources, a discussion guide for each chapter.

What does it mean to be human and to be made in the image of God? What is a human being? Theologians have always been interested in the key issues surrounding the nature of the person. Christian thinkers have always tried to answer anthropological questions: the body-soul relationship, gender, free will, the purpose of human life, and the relationship of the person to the rest of creation. This reader guides the students through this difficult topic and the seven chapters each represent an in-depth treatment of a sub-topic within theological anthropology.

The Christian Life

Predestination: A Guide for the Perplexed

Karl Barth The Christian Life offers a fascinating and provocative account of the Christian orientation toward ethical life from the perspective of divine reconciliation, setting forth a distinctive vision that sees prayers as the heart of a moral passion for the honour of God and the struggle for human righteousness.

God as Sacrificial Love

Pentecostal Theology

A Systematic Exploration of a Controversial Notion

Living the Full Gospel Wolfgang Vondey, University of Birmingham, UK Pentecostal Christianity has seen the largest growth in any denomination since the 20th century, yet it is hard to understand in terms of a single doctrine. Wolfgang Vondey suggest an account of Pentecostalism that allows for different adaptation and explication among the various Pentecostal groups, and argues that Pentecostal theology is fundamentally concerned with the renewal of the Christian life as revitalised through the Holy Spirit and directed toward the creation of the Kingdom of God.

Asle Eikrem, MF Norwegian School of Theology, Norway In dialogue with a range of post-enlightenment critiques of Christian theologies of sacrificial love, Eikrem presents a novel and controversial systematic approach to the multi-layered theological problem. From Hegel to prominent 20th century theologians, from feminist theologies to post-modern philosophers, Eikrem engages in a critical conversation with a host of different voices, the result of which is a unique and controversial appraisal of the significance the life and death of Jesus holds for the world today. Eikrem suggests an original approach to this issue, where the possibility and the limits of sacrifice are both determined in the way the human being is constituted as a finite being.

Reading Christian Theology in the Protestant Tradition

Essential Trinitarianism

Edited by Kelly Kapic, Covenant College, USA & Hans Madueme, Covenant College, USA

Shelli M. Poe, Millsaps College, USA

Reading Christian Theology in the Protestant Tradition offers a distinctive approach to the value of classic works through the lens of Protestantism. This book begins with the first Christian theologians, covering nearly 2000 years of theological writing from the Didache, Justin Martyr, and Origen to James Cone, José Míguez Bonino, and Sally McFague. Five major periods of church history are represented in 12 key works, each carefully explained and interpreted by an expert in the field.

Schleiermacher as Trinitarian Theologian Poe advances the thesis that Schleiermacher is an authentically and creatively Trinitarian thinker, and that this is demonstrated above all in The Christian Faith. Poe proceeds by reading The Christian Faith backwards, starting with his explicit treatment of the doctrine of the Trinity in its conclusion, then treating the divine attributes exposited throughout the work in reverse order, and finally exploring its introduction. This is a fresh interpretation of Schleiermacher’s masterwork, showing current estimations of his doctrinal contributions to Christian theology and expanding the constructive theological possibilities within contemporary Trinitarian thought.

Ecumenism: A Guide for the Perplexed

Theologies of Retrieval

R. David Nelson, Baker Academic and Brazos Press, USA & Charles Raith II, Baylor University, USA

Edited by Darren Sarisky, Wycliffe Hall, University of Oxford, UK

An introduction to the methods, achievements, and future prospects of the modern ecumenical movement. The volume defines ecumenism, a term that has long been a source of confusion for students of theology and church history. A concise review of the chronology of the 1st century of the modern ecumenical movement is then offered, which highlights the major events, figures, accomplishments, and impasses. This is followed by critical examinations of several significant challenges for contemporary ecumenical theology and practice. The conclusion is a commentary upon the difficulties and prospects that the ecumenical movement might anticipate as it enters this new millennium.

An Exploration and Appraisal

Theologies of retrieval — close readings of classic theological texts made with a view toward modern concerns — are one of the most significant trends in academic theology today, cutting across Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Orthodox points of view. This volume offers an understanding of what theologies of retrieval look like and how they operate, and examines their strengths and weaknesses. The contributors to this volume are all well established theologians, answering important questions raised by existing work in the field.

The Keys and the Kingdom

How the Church of England Lost the English People

The British and the Papacy from John Paul II to Francis

Andrew Brown, The Guardian, UK and Linda Woodhead, Lancaster University, UK

Catherine Pepinster, former editor of The Tablet

The Church of England still seemed an essential part of Englishness, and even of the British state, when Mrs Thatcher was elected. More recently, it has lost more than half its members and much of its influence. Yet the English still largely believe in God and most still call themselves Christians. So what went wrong, and how? This book, now updated with new material for the paperback edition, tells the story of the disappearance of the Church of England from the centre of public life. The authors show what happened and explain why.

Tracing the relationship between the Catholic Church and the British Establishment, Catherine Pepinster tells a hitherto little understood story of faith, drama, enmity, occasional friendship and great misunderstanding. She charts the surprising influence of the Papacy in British politics, collaboration between Pope and politicians on key issues, the ‘stealth minority’ of Catholics occupying major public positions, and the relationship between the Papacy and the Crown. Featuring exclusive interviews with Cardinals Nichols and Murphy-O’Connor, Rowan Williams, Lord Patten and former British Ambassadors to both the Holy See and Italy, this account offers penetrating insights into this most fascinating of political relationships.

T&T Clark Companion to Atonement Edited by Adam J. Johnson, Torrey Honors Institute, Biola University, USA The T&T Clark Companion to Atonement establishes a vision for the doctrine of the atonement as a unified yet extraordinarily rich event calling for the church's full appropriation. The essays are divided into four main sections: 1) dogmatic location, 2) chapters on the Old and New Testaments, 3) major theologians and 4) contemporary developments. The book is comprised of 18 major essays, and an A-Z section containing shorter dictionary-length entries on a much broader range of topics. The result is a combination of in-depth analysis and breadth of scope, making this a benchmark work for further studies in the doctrine.

The Persistence of God's Endangered Promises The Bible's Unified Story Allan J. McNicol, Austin Graduate School of Theology, USA A thorough and integrated biblical theology which charts the master story of Scripture with respect to God’s promises to his people and their hope of final triumph. McNicol first critiques other biblical theologies. He then adopts a narrative reading of the Hebrew Scriptures to show the coherent theme of God’s promises to his people throughout. These are then examined in the light of the New Testatment and the teachings of Jesus, with a close focus on the wider literary production of the New Testament.

A Biblical Theology of Women M. Sydney Park, Beeson Divinity School, USA M. Sydney Park explores exegetically and theologically the importance of women in Scripture within the framework of evangelical theology. Park uses the Pauline writings as her starting point, examining them within the context of the rest of the canon and together with key female figures in both the Old and New Testaments. Park shows that Paul's perspective on women cannot be given exclusive authority over nor excluded from productive dialogue with further canonical writings, showing that the biblical chronicle of women discloses a critical theological role, distinct from but not incoherent to their male counterparts in salvation history.

Scripture as Social Discourse Social-Scientific Perspectives on Early Jewish and Christian Writings Edited by Todd Klutz, University of Manchester, UK, Casey Strine, University of Sheffield, UK & Jessica M.

Ezra-Nehemiah: An Introduction and Study Guide

Ancient Israel: What Do We Know and How Do We Know It?

Israel's Quest for Identity

Revised Edition

Lena-Sofia Tiemeyer, University of Aberdeen, UK

Lester L. Grabbe, University of Hull, UK

Tiemeyer showcases and introduces the latest developments and most up-to-date scholarship on these important texts, which tell the story of the people in Yehud in the 6th and the 5th centuries BCE. This was a time of economic hardship. The people living in and around Jerusalem were scratching out a living in a land that had been devastated by war. Tiemeyer shows how a group which had lost its political autonomy and national identity set about finding new ways of understanding and shaping that identity.

In Ancient Israel Lester L. Grabbe sets out to summarize what we know through a survey of sources and how we know it by a discussion of methodology and by evaluating the evidence. The most basic question about the history of ancient Israel, how do we know what we know, leads to the fundamental questions of Grabbe’s work: what are the sources for the history of Israel and how do we evaluate them? How do we make them 'speak' to us through the fog of centuries?

Introducing the Women's Hebrew Bible Feminism, Gender Justice, and the Study of the Old Testament Susanne Scholz, Perkins School of Theology, USA In this second edition, Susanne Scholz offers new insights into the diverse field of feminist studies on the Hebrew Bible. Scholz provides a new introductory survey of the history of feminism more broadly, giving context to its rise in biblical studies, before looking at these issues as they relate specifically to feminist readings – and readers – of the Hebrew Bible. Biblical texts, characters, and themes are then examined in detail, with two further new chapters, one on masculinity and queer theory and the other on the Christian right's responses to feminist and gender approaches to the Bible.

Isaiah 6-12

Qoheleth's Eternal Earth

H.G.M. Williamson, University of Oxford, UK

Marie Turner, Flinders University of South Australia, Australia Marie Turner examines the writings of Qoheleth in the book of Ecclesiastes and provides an ecological reading of the text that gives readers clear insights into how biblical wisdom literature can be used to respond to the contemporary environmental challenges. Turner moves through the chapters of Ecclesiastes with an ear attuned to the voice of 'Earth' as it struggles to be heard against the voice of the economy. Eco-justice demands that the contemporary reader should be mindful of future generations and heed Qoheleth’s counsel to value the fruits of one’s labour without greed.

David's Capacity for Compassion A Literary-Hermeneutical Study of 1 - 2 Samuel Barbara Green, Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology, USA Barbara Green applies seven tools from contemporary literary and hermeneutical theory, to present and examine the development of David's character in the books of Samuel. Green demonstrates how the figure of David can be read as emerging from a young naive whose early successes grow into a tendency for actions of contempt, arrogance, blindness and even cruelty, particularly in matters of cult. Despite this, Green also shows that across the narrative of the books of Samuel David's character develops and he moves closer to the demeanor and actions of wise compassion, more closely aligned with God.

Chronicles and the Politics of Davidic Restoration

The Solomon Narratives in the Context of the Hebrew Bible

A Quiet Revolution

Told and Retold

David Janzen, Durham University, UK

Sean E. Cook, Mount Royal University, Canada

David Janzen argues that the Book of Chronicles is a document with a political message as well as a theological one and moreover, that the book’s politics explain its theology. Janzen sees the author of Chronicles as having been part of a 4th century B.C.E. group within the post-exilic Judean community that hoped to see the Davidides restored to power, and he or she composed this work to promote a restoration of this house to the position of a client monarchy within the Persian Empire.

Sedaqa and Torah in Postexilic Discourse

The Levite Singers in Chronicles and Their Stabilising Role

Edited by Susanne Gillmayr-Bucher, Catholic Private University Linz, Austria & Maria Häusl, University of Dresden, Germany

Ming Him Ko, Alliance Bible Seminary, Hong Kong

The chapters in this volume clarify crucial aspects of torah by exploring its relationship to sedaqa (righteousness). Observing the Torah is often considered to be the main identity-marker of Israel in the post-exilic period. However, sedaqa is also widely used as a force of group cohesion and as a resource for ethics without references to torah. The contributors to this volume explore these crucial themes for the post-exilic period, and show how they are related in the key texts that feature them.

This study focuses on the Chronicler’s special interest in Levite singers. It takes into consideration the socio-ideological milieu of the Jerusalem temple community in the Persian period and the Mesopotamian elite professional norms and practices that nourished the singers and their music. It also explores the conception of the earthly temple as representative of its heavenly counterpart, and looks at the way in which this shaped the Chronicler’s theological frame of reference within which to understand the work of the Levite singers in Chronicles.

The Storied Ethics of the Thanksgiving Psalms

Feminist Frameworks and the Bible

Joshua T. James, John Leland Center for Theological Studies, USA

Power, Ambiguity, and Intersectionality

Using insights from narrative ethics James argues that story and storytelling function as important instruments in a given community’s ethical shaping. He applies this to the Psalter and tests the argument through a close reading of three thanksgivings — Psalms 116, 118, and 138. James shows how these psalms, and the stories they retell, invite the audience to tell their story when God answers their prayers, and to do so in public, in corporate worship, for the benefit of the community.

Sean E. Cook examines the value of having two versions of the same monarchic history of Israel within the Hebrew Bible (focusing on the books of Kings and Chronicles). Cook shows the great benefit of reading the books of Chronicles and Kings as autonomous and coherent (rather than taking a diachronic approach) by using the Solomon narratives as a case study. These narratives are first read individually, and then together, so as to ascertain their uniqueness vis-à-vis one another and to outline their purposes within their respective larger literary contexts.

Edited by L. Juliana Claassens, University of Stellenbosch, South Africa & Carolyn J. Sharp, Yale Divinity School, USA With contributors ranging across six different countries, including the USA, Germany, South Africa, Botswana, Nigeria and New Zealand, this volume presents incisive feminist and postcolonial interpretations of the Bible. All of the authors illustrate the academic frameworks they use to read the Old Testament. The conversation generated touches on the nature and significance of feminist biblical interpretation in our global context and includes reflections on the tropes of power, ambiguity and intersectionality.

Women and Exilic Identity in the Hebrew Bible

The Lost Seduction

Edited by Martien Halvorson-Taylor, University of Virginia, USA & Katherine E. Southwood, University of Oxford, UK

Caroline Blyth, University of Auckland, New Zealand Caroline Blyth guides readers through an in-depth exploration of Delilah’s afterlives as femme fatale in both biblical interpretation and popular culture, tracing the social and historical factors that may have inspired them. Blyth considers alternative afterlives for Delilah’s character, using as inspiration both the Judges 16 narrative and a number of cultural texts which deconstruct traditional understandings of the femme fatale, thereby inviting readers to view this iconic biblical character in new and fascinating lights.

Notions of women as found in the Bible have had an incalculable impact on western cultures, influencing perspectives on marriage, kinship, legal practice, political status, and general attitudes. Women and Exilic Identity is drawn from three separate strands to address and analyse this phenomenon. The first examines how women were conceptualized and represented during the exilic period. The second focuses on methodological possibilities and drawbacks connected to investigating women and exile. The third reviews current prominent literature on the topic, with responses from authors.

The Characters of Elijah and Elisha and the Deuteronomic Evaluation of Prophecy Miracles and Manipulation Roy L. Heller, Southern Methodist University, USA An examination of the dual characterization of Elijah and Elisha, contrasting their miraculous signs and wonders with troubling stories such as Elijah running from Jezebel and Elisha cursing the children who make fun of him. Heller argues that this dual characterization reflects an ambivalent attitude that the narrator of Kings has toward prophecy, and that this attitude is in turn reflected in the book of Deuteronomy. This shows that Deuteronomy’s opinion of prophecy is that it must always be evaluated in light of the clear and straightforward teaching of Deuteronomy itself.

Theophanic "Type-Scenes" in the Pentateuch Nevada Levi DeLapp, Calvin Christian Reformed Church, Iowa DeLapp identifies three distinct theophanic “typescenes” in the final form of the Pentateuch, which fit with the particular theological forms of the books in which they appear. In Genesis, theophany is related to a crisis or threat to the Abrahamic promise. In Exodus YHWH’s fiery presence in a communal setting is linked to preserving Israel as a people in preparation for the Abrahamic inheritance. In Leviticus this is augmented with a liturgical setting where priestly action brings about theophanic response. DeLapp then shows how Numbers and Dueteronomy re-read and re-tell these “type-scenes” to ensure that they are read appropriately.

Edited by Mark J. Boda, McMaster Divinity College, Canada, Kevin Chau, University of the Free State, South Africa & Beth LaNeel Tanner, New Brunswick Theological Seminary, USA

Karalina Matskevich, Heythrop College, UK Karalina Matskevich examines the structures that map out the construction of gendered and national identities in Genesis 2–3 and 12–36. Using the tools of narratology, semiotics and psychoanalysis, Matskevich highlights the contradiction inherent in the project of dominance, through which the male Subject can only emerge as complex and in possession of knowledge with the help of woman, the transforming Other to whom the narrator (and Yahweh) attributes both the agency and the blame.

Narrative Desire and the Book of Ruth

Musical Illuminations of Genesis Tales

Stephanie Day Powell, Manhattan College, USA

Helen Leneman, Independent Scholar

Stephanie Day Powell illuminates the myriad forms of persuasion, inducement, discontent, and heartbreak experienced by readers of Ruth. Writing from a lesbian perspective, Powell draws upon biblical scholarship, contemporary film and literature, narrative studies, feminist and queer theories, trauma studies and psychoanalytic theory to trace the workings of desire that produced the book of Ruth and shaped its history of reception. Wrestling with the arguments for and against reading Ruth as a love story between women, Powell gleans new insights into the ancient world in which Ruth was written.

Leneman studies oratorios, operas, and songs (and their librettos) to shed light on how Genesis has been understood and experienced over time. Whilst the book covers Genesis as a whole, it does not purport to be a comprehensive coverage of all musical uses of Genesis, but rather to present several of the more surprising and interesting musical settings, chiefly from the 19th century.

What Did Jesus Look Like? Joan E. Taylor, King's College London, UK Jesus Christ is the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white, man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men.

Scholarship on the book of Revelation has captured the imagination of generations of Bible students, both professionals and laypeople alike. Revelation's characters and images are both real and symbolic, spiritual and material, and it is frequently difficult to know the difference between them. Peter J. Leithart, in this first of two insightful volumes on Revelation, offers systematic and thorough interpretation of the book of Revelation.

Matthew's Theology of Fulfillment, Its Universality and Its Ethnicity God’s New Israel as the Pioneer of God’s New Humanity Herman C.

Waetjen presents Matthew as a 'book of Genesis' that introduces the New Testament, by letting it tell itself as a story of a Jewish male who is generated by God’s Spirit and brought to birth by a virgin who simultaneously is the mother of a new humanity and a new Israel.

Paul as Pastor Edited by Brian S. Rosner, Ridley College, Australia, Andrew S. Malone, Ridley College, Australia & Trevor J. Burke, Cambridge Theological Federation, UK This stimulating resource considers a hitherto neglected, but critical, dimension of Paul and his letters — the question of to what degree he behaved as and identified as a pastor. The contributors consider the household setting of Paul’s pastoral practice, the evidence of Acts and a survey of themes in each of the letters in the traditional Pauline corpus. Additionally, three chapters supply case studies of the Wirkungsgeschichte of Paul’s pastoral practice in the pastoral offices of the Anglican Communion in the denomination’s Ordinal, and in the lives and thought of Augustine of Hippo and George Whitfield.

Alan Kirk, James Madison University, USA Research on memory has provoked debates about the significance of memory-based approaches for synoptic, Johannine, and historical Jesus scholarship. Alan Kirk shows how memory theory provides a defensible, comprehensive account of the tradition that forms the basis for further work on a range of problems in gospels scholarship. Kirk considers current analytical approaches to the phenomenon of memory, including cultural memory, social memory, and memory in its cognitive, neurobiological aspects, cognitive science and associated philosophy and integrates these to assess how aspects of memory may be useful in Jesus studies.

Suffering in Ancient Worldview

Suffering in the Face of Death

Luke, Seneca and 4 Maccabees in Dialogue

The Epistle to the Hebrews and Its Context of Situation

Brian J. Tabb, Bethlehem College and Seminary, USA

Bryan R. Dyer, Calvin College, USA

Seneca, 4 Maccabees and Luke-Acts are united in this treatment of the theme and theology of Christian, Roman and Jewish views on suffering. Tabb presents a close reading of representative texts from Seneca's essays and letters, Acts, and 4 Maccabees in order to highlight the respective authors' understanding of suffering, working through their perspectives on God, humanity, the world's problem and its solution, and the future. All three authors are shown to both expect and accept suffering as a present reality governed by God's sovereign purposes, however defined.

The language of suffering and death is used in the Epistle to the Hebrews as a means of creating models of endurance from which the original audience could learn to endure similar sufferings. Dyer shows, through his linguistic analysis of the text, how the social scene of the Hebrews can be better understood through the language used.

Reading Revelation as Pastiche Imitating the Past Michelle Fletcher, University of Kent, UK Fletcher examines Revelation in the light of Old Testament texts and the methods traditionally used to examiner their relationship with Revelation, as well as the study of Greco-Roman literary methods of combination and imitation. She argues that Revelation should be seen as a combined and imitative text which actively engages its audience through signalling to multiple texts and multiple textual experiences: in short, it is an act of pastiche.

The Testimony of the Exalted Jesus The 'Testimony of Jesus' in the Book of Revelation Sarah Underwood Dixon, University of Cambridge, UK One of the most important, but often neglected, issues in the interpretation of the phrase 'the testimony of Jesus' in the Book of Revelation has been whether the phrase can be read consistently across each instance of its occurrence. Dixon explores the use of this phrase and shows that 'the testimony of Jesus' is not just another title for John's writing, but is something that is given to and even characterizes those who hear the message of the Apocalypse.

Readings in the Catholic Epistles and Hebrews

Rod Elledge, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, USA An examination of the use of the third-person and self-reference (known as "illeism") by Jesus and Yahweh in the Bible. Elledge surveys the Ancient Near Eastern and Old Testament material, as well as the New Testament material, and assesses the significance of this language, concluding that it reflects both royal and divine themes. This provides a foundation for assessing how this illeism impacts upon Christology.

Mark 15:39 as a Markan Theology of Revelation

Cornelis Bennema, Union School of Theology, UK

The Centurion's Confession as Apocalyptic Unveiling

An investigation of mimesis in the Johannine literature, working from the starting point that the mimesis within God (Son-Father) is a paradigm for the mimesis between Jesus and the disciples. Bennema examines this with reference to the implied family mimesis in John 8, and the disciples-Jesus mimesis in the footwashing in John 13. From this Bennema goes on to argue for the centrality of mimesis in Johannine ethics and theology, considers questions of how mimetic empowerment occurs in relationship with Jesus under the direction of the Spirit, and examines how John's concept of mimesis arises within John's broader cultural milieu.

Composite Citations in Antiquity

Brian K. Gamel, Baylor University, USA Jesus' arrest, trial and execution ends with the Roman centurion who oversees the death process proclaiming Jesus as God's son. This surprising exclamation occurs moments after Jesus has been put to death amidst a crowd of mockery. Gamel explores two key questions in relation to this moment: what does the centurion mean when he says that Jesus is God's son, and why does he say it? Gamel argues that the offer of sight to the centurion demonstrates the reconciliation of God and humanity which are otherwise in Mark's Gospel repeatedly presented as antagonistic spheres.

Holy Terror: Jesus in the Infancy Gospel of Thomas

J.R.C. Cousland, University of British Columbia, Canada

This is the second of two volumes that investigate the phenomenon of composite citations. The following topics are covered: (1) the question of whether the quoting author created the composite text or found it already constructed as such; (2) the question of the rhetorical and/or literary impact of the quotation in its present textual location, and (3) the question of whether the intended audiences would have recognized and ‘reverse engineered’ the composite citation in question and as a result engaged with the original context of each of the component parts.

Texts and Artefacts Collected Essays on Early Christian Manuscripts Larry W. Hurtado, University of Edinburgh, UK The essays included in this volume present Larry W. Hurtado’s steadfast analysis of the earliest Christian manuscripts. In these chapters Hurtado considers not only standard text-critical issues which seek to uncover an earliest possible version of a text, but also the manuscripts available to us themselves. Hurtado examines often overlooked 2nd and 3rd century artefacts, which are among the earliest manuscripts available, drawing fascinating conclusions about the features of early Christianity.

The Infancy Gospel of Thomas is one of the most unusual gospels in the Christian tradition, in which Jesus is presented as a holy terror who kills and wounds adults for trifling faults. Cousland addresses why Jesus is portrayed in this way, placing this characterization in the context of the literary framework of the Gospel of Thomas and the larger setting of the Greco-Roman world.

Jude on the Attack

Let the Reader Understand

A Comparative Analysis of the Epistle of Jude, Jewish Judgment Oracles, and Greco-Roman Invective

Essays in Honor of Elizabeth Struthers Malbon

Alexandra Robinson, Macquarie University, Australia A detailed survey of Greco-Roman invectives and Jewish judgment oracles, comparing and contrasting them to the epistle of Jude. Robinson examines the structure, aims, themes, and style of these texts and in the end concludes that Jude is a ‘Jewish invective.’ The epistle is a polemical text which takes the form (structure, aims, and style) of a typical Greco-Roman invective but is filled with Jewish content (themes and allusions), drawing on Israel’s heritage for the benefit of his primarily Jewish-Christian audience.

This volume in honor of Elizabeth Struthers Malbon introduces readers to the breadth of her work on the gospel of Mark. In the opening chapter, Werner Kelber places Malbon’s work within the larger context of critical reflection, from antiquity to the modern era, on the role and function of discourse. Kelber locates her approach squarely within the framework of modernity and concludes that "Malbon's supremely creative achievement has been the employment of modern, narrative critical tools with a view toward uncovering the fecundity of the Gospel of Mark."

Christ, Shepherd of the Nations The Nations as Narrative Character and Audience in John's Apocalypse Jon Morales, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, USA A fresh examination of the question of the nations in Revelation, carried out through employing narrative categories and asking four research questions: what is John’s story of the nations? How does he tell it? What is John’s message to the nations? What is John’s message to the church concerning the nations? Underpinning this analysis is the principle that character cannot be understood as an abstraction but must be rather discovered sequentially in the development of an entire narrative.This leads Morales to conclude that John's purpose concerning the nations is to show that they belong to God and to his Christ.

Reconstructing the Historical Background of Paul’s Rhetoric in the Letter to the Colossians Adam Copenhaver, Ezra Bible Institute, USA Copenhaver approaches the debate surrounding the opponents in Colossians from a methodological standpoint and contends that Paul was not actually confronting active opponents when he wrote the letter. Copenhaver views the letter as having been written by Paul to the churches in the Lycus Valley in a desire to develop their identity as a new people in Christ and to appeal to them to live a new kind of life in Christ. His warnings in Colossians 2 function as oppositional rhetoric contrasting the religious practices of the Lycus Valley with this new life in Christ.

The Price of Partnership in the Letter of Paul to the Philippians "Make My Joy Complete" Mark A. Jennings, Gordon-Conwell Seminary, USA An examination of the purpose of Philippians showing that Paul wrote the letter with the sole intent of persuading the church to maintain its exclusive partnership with him and his gospel mission. In his discussion Jennings examines each section of the letter closely using standard historical-critical methods and with specific attention to koinonia, the issue of 'rival' missions and Paul's affirmations of superiority, and Paul's comments about finance. Ultimately Jennings shows that in the letter Paul is urging the church at Philippi to be steadfast not just to the gospel of Christ, but to his gospel of Christ.

The Ritual World of Paul the Apostle Metaphysics, Community and Symbol in 1 Corinthians 11. 17-34 Michael Lakey, Ripon College Cuddesdon, Oxford, UK Lakey explores the theological significance of the rituals of Baptism and the Lord's Supper in Pauline theology, with particular reference to 1 Corinthians 11:17ff. Lakey builds upon the insights of Clifford Geertz, by showing how for Paul Baptism and the Lord's Supper facilitated specific connections between his metaphysics on the one hand, and the form or pattern of life he enjoins upon his churches on the other. Lakey considers what Paul's underlying beliefs regarding these ritual events may have been, thereby setting the scene for a preliminary discussion of specific lines of post-interpretation in the early patristic period.

The Parables in Q

The Bible on Television

Dieter T. Roth, Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz, Germany

Edited by Helen K. Bond, University of Edinburgh, UK & Edward Adams, King's College London, UK

Roth uses the latest research in parables scholarship and a novel, intertextual approach to studying Q to provide the first monograph-length treatment of the 27 Q parables. Roth considers Q not as a text behind Matthew and Luke that needs to be reconstructed but rather as an intertext between Matthew and Luke that offered plots, characters, and images in parables that were taken up by Matthew and Luke and utilized in their own respective texts.

How power hijacked a parable Nick Spencer, Director of Theos, UK Nick Spencer sets out to rescue an innocent parable, mugged for political ends, ignored by passers-by, and then left for half-dead at the edge of the English language. The parable of the Good Samaritan has been used by almost every major British politician over recent years – from Theresa May and Tony Blair to Margaret Thatcher and Jeremy Corbyn. What does this say about Christianity and politics today, about language and oratory? Spencer, described by the Economist as ‘like a prophet crying in the post-modern wilderness’, suggests that this political Samaritan tells us more about ourselves than we care to recognise.

The Political Samaritan

Mysticism, Ritual and Religion in Drone Metal Owen Coggins, The Open University, UK This is the first extensive scholarly study of drone metal and its religious dimensions, drawing on three years of ethnographic participant observation at more than 300 performances, 74 interviews with listeners and other participants, survey data, and analysis of sound recordings. Contributing to the field of religion and popular music as well as popular culture more generally, the author argues that the marginality of the genre culture, together with the extremely abstract sound produces a focus on the listeners’ engagement with sound, and that this in turn creates a space for the open-ended exploration of religiosity in extreme states of bodily consciousness.

U2 and the Religious Impulse Take Me Higher Edited by Scott Calhoun, Cedarville University, USA U2 and the Religious Impulse examines indications in U2’s music and performances that the band works at the conscious and subconscious levels as artists who focus on matters of the spirit, religious traditions and a life guided by both belief and doubt. U2 is known for a career of stirring songs, landmark performances and for its interest in connecting with fans to reach a higher power to accomplish greater purposes. U2 surprises many listeners who examine its lyrics and concert themes by having a depth of interest in matters of human existence more typically found in literature, philosophy and theology.

Practical Spiritualities in a Media Age

Alternative Salvations

Edited by Curtis Coats, Millsaps College, USA & Monica M. Emerich, University of Colorado, USA

Edited by Hannah Bacon, Wendy Dossett & Steve Knowles, all of University of Chester, UK

This book explores how and why media become the site and source of spiritual expressions that address the mundane or everydayness of our lives. Including international case studies and essays from leading scholars such as Stewart Hoover and Graham Harvey, the book examines the ways and the places in which people have employed media and information technologies to weave spiritual meaning throughout the demands and pastimes of their lives. Topics range from food and sex to spiritual tourism. This is a must-read for anyone working in the intersection of media, religion or spirituality, and culture.

Confucianism in China An Introduction Tony Swain, formerly of University of Sydney, Australia This accessible history of Confucianism, or the ‘Way of the Ru’, emphasizes the religious dimensions of the tradition. It clearly explains the tradition's unique and subtle philosophical ideals as well as the ‘arts of the Ru’ whereby seemingly simple acts such as reading, sitting quietly, good manners, and attending to family and state responsibilities, became ways of ultimate transformation. This introduction is suitable for anyone wishing to understand a tradition that shaped imperial China and which is now increasingly swaying Chinese religious, philosophical, political, and economic developments.

Engaging the Sacred and the Secular

Theology

"Alternative Salvations challenges the static orthodox Christian notions of salvation, both in the past and present, through the exploration of alternative theologies and lived experiences."

Part one draws on contemporary salvation narratives showing how current cultural forms, social practices and secular discourses are influenced by, or are interpreted through, the lens of religious and theological accounts of salvation. Part two explores alternative accounts of salvation rooted in religious traditions.

Religious Humor in Evangelical Christian and Mormon Culture Elisha McIntyre, University of Sydney, Australia Incorporating original data from textual analysis and the voices of religious comedians, the book critically analyzes the experiences of believers who appreciate that their faith is not necessarily a barrier to their laughter. The author argues that there are specific characteristics that indicate a unique kind of humor that may be called ‘religious humor’. Through an examination of religious humor found in stand-up comedy, television sitcoms, comedy film and satirical cartoons, and drawing on interview and survey data, the book outlines the main considerations that some Christians take into account when choosing their comedy entertainment.

Christianity and Confucianism Christopher Hancock, Oxford House, UK As the world reckons with China's rise and China reflects on her global future, this new crosscultural study examines key themes shaping the faith and practice of modern China and a culturally Christianized world. Written to inspire the interested and challenge the narrow-minded, this comprehensive introduction to biblical Christianity and the Confucian classics is a modern re-working of an ancient conversation. It expounds texts that have shaped quite different cultures and traditions. It compares and contrasts Christianity and Confucianism through a study of eight major themes. Chinese drawn to Christianity will find tools to integrate new perspectives with ancient traditions.

The Interplay of Practice and Context

Buddhism, Education and Politics in Burma and Thailand

Edited by Halvor Eifring, University of Oslo, Norway

From the Seventeenth Century to the Present

Behind the stereotype of a solitary meditator closing his eyes to the world, meditation always takes place in close interaction with the surrounding culture. Meditation and Culture: The Interplay of Practice and Context explores cases in which the relation between meditative practice and cultural context is particularly complex. The internationally-renowned contributors discuss practices that travel from one culture to another, or are surrounded by competing cultures. They explore cultures that bring together competing practices, or that are themselves mosaics of elements of different origins. They seek to answer the question: What is the relationship between meditation and culture?

Shinto, Nature and Ideology in Contemporary Japan

Mountain Mandalas

Making Sacred Forests

Allan G. Grapard, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA

Aike P. Rots, University of Oslo, Norway This is the first systematic study of Shinto’s environmental turn. The book traces the development in recent decades of the idea of Shinto as an ‘ancient nature religion,’ and a resource for overcoming environmental problems. The volume shows how these ideas gradually achieved popularity among scientists, priests, Shinto-related new religious movements and, eventually, the conservative shrine establishment. Aike P. Rots argues that central to this development is the notion of chinju no mori: the sacred groves surrounding many Shinto shrines. Today the term has come to be extended to any sort of shrine land, signifying not only historical and ecological continuity but also abstract values such as community spirit.

Islamic Education in Britain New Pluralist Paradigms Alison Scott-Baumann, SOAS, University of London, UK & Sariya Cheruvallil-Contractor, Coventry University, UK Islamic Education in Britain responds to the dissatisfaction among many young Muslim men and women with the theological/secular split in education, and their desire for courses that provide combinations of these two strands of their lived experience as Muslim British citizens. Grounded in empirical research, the authors reach beyond the meta-narratives of secularization and orientalism to demonstrate the importance of the teaching and learning of classical Islamic studies for the promotion of reasoned dialogue, interfaith and intercultural understanding in pluralist British society.

Merin Shobhana Xavier, Ithaca College, USA This book sheds light on one of the major Sufi movements in North America, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, and the first to establish a Sufi shrine in America. Through extensive ethnographic data, the author shows that the followers of Bawa in the United States and Sri Lanka shared far more similarities in the relationships they formed with spaces, Bawa, and Sufism than differences, which challenges the accepted conceptualization of Sufism in North America as having a distinct “Americanness.” These findings challenge scholars to re-consider how Sufism is developing in the modern American landscape as well as globally.

Stereotyping Religion Critiquing Clichés Edited by Brad Stoddard & Craig Martin Our culture is full of popular stereotypes about religion, both positive and negative. Many people uncritically assume that religion is intrinsically violent, or that religion makes people moral, or that it is simply "bullshit". This concise volume tackles 10 of these stereotypes, addresses why scholars of religion find them to be cliched, describes their origins, and explains the social or political work they rhetorically accomplish in the present. Written in an easy and accessible style, Stereotyping Religion: Critiquing Cliches is suitable for anyone looking to clear away unsophisticated assumptions in preparation for more critical studies.

Christian Tourism, Myth-making and Identity Formation Edited by Erin Roberts, University of South Carolina, USA & Jennifer Eyl, Tufts University, USA Religious museums, theme parks, and guided tours are often viewed as providing historical and doctrinal education, wholesome entertainment, or sacred space for participants. This book instead shows the extent and the strategies through which these narratives are constructed. Case studies include Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum in Kentucky, the Bible Walk Museum in Ohio, Christian Zionist Tours in Israel and the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem. The book contributes to growing research which explains religious practice in recognizable, human terms.

The Roman Mithras Cult

Religious Evolution and the Axial Age

A Cognitive Approach

From Shamans to Priests to Prophets

Olympia Panagiotidou, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece & Roger Beck, University of Toronto, Canada

Stephen K. Sanderson, University of California, Riverside, USA

The first full cognitive history of an ancient religion. In this groundbreaking book Beck and Panagiotidou show how cognitive historiography can supplement our historical knowledge and deepen our understanding of past cultural phenomenon. This study identifies the cognitive and psychological processes which took place in the minds and bodies of the Mithraists during their initiation and participation in the mysteries.

Shows that over the past 10 millennia an overall evolutionary sequence can be observed, running from the spirit- and shaman-dominated religions of small-scale societies to the archaic religions of the ancient civilizations and then to the salvation religions of the Axial Age. Sanderson argues that new religions emphasizing salvation and release from suffering—Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Daoism—arose to cope with the changing religious needs.

Kundt compares the notion of evolution in cultural evolutionary theories with neo-Darwinian evolutionary theory in order to determine the value of the biological concept for studying culture.

SOCIOLOGY OF RELIGION

The Spiritual Virtuoso

Religion and Extremism

Personal Faith and Social Transformation

Rejecting Diversity

Marion Goldman, University of Oregon, USA & Steven Pfaff, University of Washington, Seattle, USA

Douglas Pratt, University of Waikato, New Zealand

Goldman and Pfaff define a spiritual virtuoso as someone who works toward personal purification and a sense of holiness with the same perseverance and intensity that virtuosi strive to excel in the arts or athletics. Since the Protestant Reformation, activist virtuosi have come together in large and small social movements to redefine the meanings of spiritual practice, support religious equality, and transform a wide range of social institutions. Tracing the impact of spiritual virtuosi from the 16th century Reformation through the 19th century Antislavery Movement to the 20th century Human Potential Movement and beyond, this book explores how personal virtuosity can become a social force.

Douglas Pratt addresses the question of religion and extremism, focussing on the three so-called ‘monotheistic’ religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Religion and Extremism: Rejecting Diversity argues that a rejection of Absolutism, results in extreme behaviours and increasingly, in hardening social and religious responses. Arguing that ‘Absolutism’ reveals an underlying dynamic in which religions may manifest extremism, the author concludes with a discussion of contemporary mutual extremism and how extremism may be countered.

Religion and Space

West Indian Pentecostals

Competition, Conflict and Violence in the Contemporary World

Living Their Faith in New York and London

Lily Kong, National University of Singapore, Singapore & Orlando Woods, Asian Strategies, Singapore Extensive case studies examine different instances of competition over religious space, including The Temple Mount/Haram el-Sharif in Jerusalem, loudspeakers in mosques, and the armed occupation of religious spaces in India, Pakistan and Thailand. Globalization is also shown to have given rise to new spaces of religious competition and conflict, and the authors explore how globalization has caused understandings of space to evolve in line with the growing focus on transnational networks and flows, and the globalisation of religious movements.

Janice A. McLean-Farrell, City Seminary of New York, USA This is a significant in-depth study that explores the cultural context of the religious experience of West Indian immigrant communities. Whereas most studies to date have focussed on how immigrants settle in their new home contexts, Janice A. McLean-Farrell argues for a more comprehensive perspective that takes into account the importance of religion and the role of both ‘home’ and the ‘host’ contexts in shaping immigrant lives in the Diaspora. Using case studies from the cities of New York and London, the book tests existing theories and concepts on the interface of religion and immigration and makes important contributions to the study of Pentecostalism.

Christianity and the Limits of Materiality Edited by Minna Opas & Anna Haapalainen, both of University of Turku, Finland Addresses the question of exactly how Christianity takes place materially. It presents ground-breaking research on the frameworks and contexts in relation to and within which Christian logics of materiality operate. The chapters discuss case studies from North and South America, Europe, and Africa, and demonstrate that the limits preoccupying Christians delimit their lives but also enable many things. This volume demonstrates that it is at the interfaces of materiality and the transcendent that Christians create and legitimise their religion.

The volumes in this collection compare the different religions based on their prophets, their teachings and cultural influence, but also in how they face the challenge of an increasingly secular world. They are concerned with the similarities between the religions they discuss rather than their differences, hence supporting the view that religions should not be pitted against each other but instead be understood as faiths favouring understanding and togetherness. All titles are available as a set or as individual volumes.

The Philosophy of Knowledge: A History Four-Volume Set Edited by Stephen Hetherington, University of New South Wales, Australia The first in-depth survey of the history of knowledge in Western philosophy. The Philosophy of Knowledge: A History presents the history of one of Western philosophy’s greatest challenges: understanding the nature of knowledge. Divided chronologically into four volumes, it follows conceptions of knowledge that have been proposed, defended, replaced, and proposed anew by ancient, medieval, modern and contemporary philosophers. Each volume centres around three key questions: what conceptions of knowledge have been offered? Which have shaped epistemology in particular and philosophy in general? How is knowledge conceived by philosophers now? Overseen by an international team of leading philosophers and featuring 50 speciallycommissioned chapters, this is a major collection on one of philosophy’s defining topics.

Access the history of intellectual thought Provides over 7,000 in-depth articles on the prominent intellectuals and the lesser-known figures responsible for shaping the history of philosophy covering a broad range of subjects, time periods and traditions. Featuring thinkers not only from dominant Anglo-American traditions but also from neglected traditions usually absent from historical surveys of philosophy.

Overseen by a General Editor and Editorial Advisory board, entries are authoritative and peer-reviewed. Excellent searching and indexing tools offer a sophisticated way of working with biographical data.

CONTENT HIGHLIGHTS • Covers Continental, Asian and Islamic traditions in antiquity, renaissance, modern, and contemporary periods • Includes figures from economics, classics, political thought, theology, literature, law, and medicine

FEATURES • Explore by time period, place, school of thought, or subject • Further reading suggestions and bibliographies
