By presenting a range of pedagogical features – introductions, suggestions for further readings and discussion questions – this text will not only allow students to gain an understanding of the history of the subject, but also the ability to read interpret and critically engage with the major issues in political theology.

The Challenge of God

Continental Philosophy and the Catholic Intellectual Tradition Edited by Colby Dickinson, Loyola University Chicago, USA, Hugh Miller, Loyola University Chicago, USA & Kathleen McNutt, Loyola University Chicago, USA The contributors in this volume examine the complicated relationship of God to Being, the meaning of Revelation, as well as highlighting the context and role of the Spiritual Exercises. They explore the Catholic Principle and its relevance in contemporary times, through discussing Christian epic visionaries, such as Dante, Milton, Blake and Joyce, debating on their theological identity and meaning for future studies.

The Accountable Animal: Justice, Justification, and Judgment

Brendan Case, Harvard University, USA In this theological meditation on the human being as an accountable animal, Brendan Case argues that accountability is not just a structural feature of human institutions: it is also a disposition to submit to rightly-constituted authority, whether divine or human. He relates this innovative conception of accountability to the key themes of justice, justification, and judgment. Offering a fresh and ecumenically minded perspective on justification, purgatory and hell, the book also engages with developments in contemporary philosophy and moral theology.

Creation and Transcendence

Theological Essays on the Divine Sublime Paul J. DeHart, Vanderbilt University, USA This book explores the substance, understanding, and implications of the doctrine of creation from nothing (ex nihilo) for contemporary theology and philosophy. Paul J. DeHart tackles the challenging questions at the heart of the tension between the idea of God's infinity, radical notions of transcendence, and the concept of the creator's mind. By engaging with a broad range of thinkers, DeHart examines the key ideas central to this resurgent debate in contemporary Christian theology.

Freedom, Redemption and Communion: Studies in Christian Doctrine Oliver D. Crisp, University of St Andrews, UK

Crisp covers a wide range of thinkers and topics, from issues concerning human free will and sin, to studies on the person of Christ in recent theology, and human redemption.

The Gift of the Ordinariates

Edited by Tracey Rowland, University of Notre Dame, Australia To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Anglicanorum Coetibus, Tracey Rowland gathers together leading voices to examine the issue of the Anglican Patrimony and its relevance for Christians today. The Anglicanorum Coetibus is the 2009 papal decree which established the Anglican Ordinariate within the Catholic Church, and this volume examines the longstanding effects of this cultural decree. Rowland introduces different aspects of the culture of Anglicanism, explains the concept of an Ordinariate within the context of ecumenical theory, and examines aspects of Anglican liturgical theology and pastoral life.

Karl Rahner’s Writings on Literature, Music and the Visual Arts Edited by Gesa Elsbeth Thiessen, Trinity College, Ireland

Karl Rahner's Writings on Literature, Music and the Visual Arts offers a collection of texts unavailable in one volume until now, including six previously untranslated essays, from a major theologian of the 20th century. Rahner’s writings focus on the revelation of God as mystery in the world and on the human being who has an essential openness towards the transcendent.

Religious Epistemology through Schillebeeckx and Tibetan Buddhism Reimagining Authority Amidst Modern Uncertainty

Jason M. VonWachenfeldt, Lawrenceville School, USA This study investigates how a comparison between Edward Schillebeeckx's controversial reading of Thomist philosophy and the Tibetan Buddhist Gendun Chopel's challenge to the standard Geluk teaching of Tsongkhapa's Madhyamaka philosophy enables us to rethink conceptions of religious knowledge.

The Anglican Patrimony in Catholic Communion

T&T Clark Studies in Edward Schillebeeckx

Revisiting the Question of Universality through Rahner and Schillebeeckx Marijn de Jong, Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium This study argues that contemporary theology needs a reconceptualised form of metaphysical theology to readdress the question of universality. In order to develop such a new metaphysical theology, de Jong turns to the work of Karl Rahner and Edward Schillebeeckx. Presenting a new perspective on their theological methods, he demonstrates that these theologians employ a dialectical interplay of hermeneutical and metaphysical arguments, yielding a modest theological metaphysics.

T&T Clark Companion to Atonement

Edited by Adam J. Johnson, Torrey Honors Institute, Biola University, USA This reference work 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.

Reading in the Presence of Christ: A Study of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Bibliology and Exegesis

Joel Banman, Independent Scholar, Canada What is Scripture, and how should we read it? And what might 20th-century theologian, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, have to teach us about these important questions? This study reassesses some of Bonhoeffer's key exegetical writings in light of his theology of revelation and bibliology, unfolding the ways in which his reading of the Bible is determined by his theology of Scripture. Accordingly, the guiding question of this study is how Bonhoeffer's bibliology informs his exegesis.

T&T Clark Handbook of Colin Gunton

Being and Action Coram Deo: Bonhoeffer and the Retrieval of Justification’s Social Import Koert Verhagen, University of St Andrews, UK

This first book-length study of the doctrine of justification as the framework of the theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer argues that God's gracious justification of human beings in Christ has direct anthropological and ethical implications for the Church today. Drawing Bonhoeffer’s thinking into conversation with Luther, German idealism, the Nazi Weltanschauung, and contemporary Pauline scholarship, it demonstrates the social relevance of Bonhoeffer's thinking.

God and Knowledge

Herman Bavinck's Theological Epistemology Nathaniel Gray Sutanto, Reformed Theological Seminary, USA Does theology belong within the academy or the church? How do Christian teachings – on God, revelation, and humanity – contribute to the activity of knowing? This volume offers a fresh reading of Bavinck’s theological epistemology and argues that his Trinitarian and organic worldview utilizes an eclectic range of sources. Sutanto unfolds Bavinck’s understanding of what he considered to be the two most important aspects of epistemology: the character of the sciences and the correspondence between subjects and objects.

Human Subjectivity 'in Christ' in Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Theology Integrating Simplicity and Wisdom Jacob Phillips, St Mary's University, UK Self-mediation is an ever-increasing feature of contemporary life, where one’s identity is frequently represented to oneself though digital technology. Dietrich Bonhoeffer presents a radical challenge by maintaining that – from the perspective of Christian theology – there is something deeply negative about beholding representations of oneself. He holds that discipleship means adopting a posture of radical agnosticism toward one’s own identity, by focusing on the interrelation of ‘simplicity’ and ‘reflection’ in theological cognition and ethical deliberation, demonstrating a wider significance in contemporary theological anthropology, soteriology and ethics.

Epistemology and Theological Hermeneutics in the Foursquare Tradition Simo Frestadius, Regents Theological College, UK Offers the theological methodology of Pentecostal rationality from a Foursquare perspective.

The Europe of the Spirit

Donald MacKinnon's Theology

Richard Hooker

Andrew Bowyer, Trinity College, Cambridge, UK

Paul Anthony Dominiak, University of Cambridge, UK

To Perceive Tragedy Without the Loss of Hope Bowyer outlines MacKinnon’s contribution to Anglican theology, as well as characterising his work as a form of “therapeutic” moral philosophy that combines a call for intense self-awareness together with a commitment to realist notions of moral “factuality”. Bowyer examines the key influences on MacKinnon’s thought, his focus on Christology, his engagement with literature and literary criticism, as well as his response to Wittgenstein’s later philosophy. This volume offers an appreciation of his contribution and a critique of his legacy.

Priests of Creation

The Architecture of Participation

This book explores how the metaphysical concept of participation informs and holds together Hooker’s major work. Dominiak analyses how Hooker uses the architectural framework of ‘participation in God’, setting the stage for Hooker’s understanding of the concept and how it is used in the Lawes. The book investigates the forming of laws, extensive and intensive participation, cognitive participation and the politics of the subject, demonstrating how Hooker provides a salutary resource for modern ecumenical dialogue and contemporary political retrievals of participation.

Christian Solar Symbolism and Jesus the Sun of Justice Kevin Duffy, The Church of Notre Dame de France, UK

Kevin Duffy suggests that we rebalance a spiritual symbolism that has over-emphasised darkness and cloud at the expense of light and sun. He proposes a creative retrieval of the traditional title of Christ as the Sun of Justice. This book blends the personal, the social and the cosmic-ecological, and speaks powerfully to a secularising era that contemporaries Friedrich Nietzsche and Thérèse of Lisieux both described as one where the sun does not shine.

Logics of War

Every Good Path

Wisdom and Practical Reason in Christian Ethics and the Book of Proverbs Andrew Errington, Charles Sturt University, Australia David Errington brings the Book of Proverbs into discussion with two significant accounts of the nature and foundation of practical reason in Christian ethics: Thomas Aquinas and Oliver O’Donovan. The volume’s central thesis is that the way in which the Book of Proverbs conceives of wisdom presents an important challenge to how practical reason has been understood in the Western theological and philosophical tradition. Errington argues that in the Book of Proverbs, rather than being a perfection of speculative knowledge, wisdom is a practical knowledge of how to act well, grounded in the reality of the world God has made.

The Use of Force and the Problem of Mediation Therese Feiler, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Germany Therese Feiler approaches the field of modern ethics of war from the borderline area between philosophical theology and religious studies, testing whether they offer a meaningful, practical logic of reconciliation. With reference to Hegel’s and others’ ‘theo–logic’ that negotiates Christ’s mediation and immanent dialectics, the logic of mediation is identified as the core concern of political ethics. Feiler unites five representative authors from now disparate strands of contemporary just war ethics, testing their conceptual logic of mediation: a sovereign realist and a cosmopolitan idealist; a rationalist individualist defending terrorism, and a Hegelian Christian ethicist.

T&T Clark Enquiries in Theological Ethics

Shelli M. Poe, Iliff School of Theology, USA This volume shows how Friedrich Schleiermacher’s thought can be used to address contemporary doctrinal refinement and development. Taking a constructive approach, Shelli M. Poe weaves Schleiermacher’s theology together with current scholarship in feminism, womanism, ecotheology, and queer theology. While Schleiermacher is widely acclaimed as the progenitor of modern theology, Poe is one of the first to use his work as a springboard to refine contemporary doctrine. This book demonstrates the promise of Schleiermacher’s mature work for contemporary constructive forms of theology.

A critical and constructive analysis of the sexually differentiated self in Karl Barth’s Church Dogmatics, securing, in his Christocentric pattern of human agency, an untapped resource for unsettling and reimagining the heteropatriarchal structure of human fellowship at the heart of his theological anthropology.

Frendo explains how the mind of professional archaeologists works, by analysing what archaeologists seek, how they go about doing so, and how they interpret their data. Frendo demonstrates how biblical research can be properly integrated with archaeological discoveries in a way that allows the bible and archaeology to be viewed and kept as distinct disciplines, the respective results of which, where relevant, may be integrated in productive discussion and history.

Jeremiah Under the Shadow of Duhm

A Critique of the Use of Poetic Form as a Criterion of Authenticity Joseph M. Henderson, Biola University, USA Henderson argues against a basic assumption of modern Jeremiah scholarship: that poetic form indicates authenticity. Henderson shows how this assumption, introduced by Bernhard Duhm (1901) is shown to be founded on the Romantic identification of prophecy and poetry pioneered by Robert Lowth (1753). Henderson outlines how Duhm’s assumption allowed him to create a biography of Jeremiah that closely resembles a Romantic Bildungsroman, bringing the book into conformity with a reconstruction of Israel’s religious history rooted in Romantic historicism.

Sacrifice in Pagan and Christian Antiquity

B I B L I C A L S T U D I E S – Old Testament

Approaching Biblical Archaeology

Robert J. Daly, Boston College, USA

Robert J. Daly examines sacrifice in the ancient Mediterranean world, showing how the rise of Christian sacrifice, and the use of sacrificial language in reference to highly spiritualized Christian lives, would have seemed radically challenging to the pagan mind. Offering a robust yet sympathetic challenge to stereotypical ideas about sacrifice, Daly outlines both the pagan and Jewish-Christian trajectories, covering the concept of sacrifice in relation to prayer, ethics and morality, the rhetoric and economics of sacrificial ceremonies, and heroes and saints. Daly finishes with an estimation of how this study might inform further study of sacrifice.

Psalms Book 2: An Earth Bible Commentary “As a Doe Groans”

Arthur Walker-Jones, University of Winnipeg, Canada Arthur Walker-Jones presents an earth-focused reading of the second book of Psalms by focusing upon the many non-human animals that appear repeatedly in the Psalms, taking into account that many of these animals co-evolved with humans and created the particular ecological niche of the highlands east of the Mediterranean. In the first commentary to focus on ecological issues and explore the implications of the natural and cultural history of animals for the interpretation of Psalms, WalkerJones examines the intersections between ecological exploitation and the oppression and liberation of humans and other animals.

The Land Without Promise

The Roots and Afterlife of One Biblical Allusion Katerina Koci, Institute of Human Sciences, Austria Katerina Koci charts the development of the Promised Land motif, starting from its biblical roots and examining its reception over the centuries until the present day. Koci uses as her cornerstone Hans-Georg Gadamer's claim that there are two complementary paths towards understanding and knowledge: science and art. Thus, to be faithful to the creed of the great hermeneutist, Koci ventures into both topics, arguing that while science sets out historical-critical analysis of the Promised Land motif in the Hebrew Bible and its later receptions, art enriches the interpretation with its literary illustrations.

Art as Biblical Commentary

Visual Criticism from Hagar the Wife of Abraham to Mary the Mother of Jesus J. Cheryl Exum, Sheffield University, UK In a study that deals equally with biblical art and biblical exegesis, J. Cheryl Exum demonstrates the contributions visual criticism can make to biblical interpretation. Using a range of texts and over 40 images, Exum asks what works of art can teach us about the biblical text. ‘Visual criticism’ is her term for an approach that addresses this question by focusing on the narrativity of images—reading them as if, like texts, they have a story to tell—inviting discussion on what light an image can shed on the biblical narrator’s story.

Water and Water-Related Phenomena in the Old Testament Wisdom Literature An Eco-Theological Exploration

Kivatsi Jonathan Kavusa, Université Libre des Pays des Grands Lacs, Democratic Republic of the Congo Kivatsi Jonathan Kavusa addresses a gap in the field of ecological readings of the Old Testament, presenting an exploration of the theme of water in the Wisdom books, including the often-ignored deuterocanonical corpus. Kavusa focuses on both the negative and positive potential of water, drawing in particular on four of the Earth Bible principles: intrinsic worth, interconnectedness, voice, and purpose.

Persian Royal–Judaean Elite Engagements in the Early Teispid and Achaemenid Empire The King's Acolytes

Jason M. Silverman, University of Helsinki, Finland This study advances the understanding of Achaemenid ideology and Persian Period Judaism. While the Achaemenid Persian Empire dwarfed all previous empires of the Ancient Near East in both size and longevity, the royal system that forged and preserved this civilization remains only rudimentarily understood, as is the imperial and religious legacy bequeathed to future generations. In response to this deficit, Silverman provides a critically sophisticated and interdisciplinary model for comparative studies.

Jonah and the Human Condition Life and Death in Yahweh’s World

Stuart Lasine, Wichita State University, USA Stuart Lasine examines all aspects of the human condition in Yahweh’s cosmos as depicted in the Hebrew Bible, particular human relationships with God and human mortality. In the first part of the book Lasine examines a number of relevant biblical texts which display different aspects of the human condition. Part two engages in a detailed case study of one human life-situation, that of the prophet Jonah. Finally, Lasine draws together his conclusions about life and death in Yahweh’s cosmos, both for characters within the world of the scriptural text and for present-day readers of the Hebrew Bible.

Jesus, the Gospels and Cinematic Imagination

Introducing Jesus Movies, Christ Films, and the Messiah in Motion Richard Walsh, Methodist University, USA & Jeffrey L. Staley, Seattle University, USA Richard Walsh and Jeffrey Staley introduce the full history and phenomenon of Jesus movies. Beginning with an introduction to the prevalent themes in cinematic depictions of Jesus and messiah figures, they survey over twenty of the most influential and distinctive individual films. The volume summarizes plots, comments on memorable characters and visuals, outlines which interpretation dominates each film, and considers every film's own cultural and historical settings, analysing the interpretive choices of filmmakers. Walsh and Staley show precisely how Jesus films compliment the gospels, and how different gospel traditions are integrated and intertwined to make a unified story of Jesus.

Atonement and Ethics in 1 John A Peacemaking Hermeneutic

Christopher Armitage, St. Mark's National Theological Centre, Australia Christopher Armitage considers previous theological perceptions of 1 John as a text which stresses that God abhors violence, and he contrasts such views with biblical scholarship that focuses upon 1 John's birth from hostile theological conflict between 'insiders' and 'outsiders'. Armitage argues that a peace-oriented reading of 1 John is still viable, but questions if the commandment that the community loves each other is intended to include their opponents, and whether the text can be of hermeneutic use to advocate non-violence and love of one’s neighbour.

The Dividing Wall

Ephesians and the Integrity of the Corpus Paulinum Martin Wright, Independant Scholar, UK This book argues for the integrity of the Pauline Corpus as a complex, composite text. Martin Wright critiques the prevailing tendency to divide the Corpus in two, separating the undoubtedly authentic letters from those of disputed authorship. Instead he advocates for a renewed canonical hermeneutic in which the Corpus as a whole communicates Paul’s legacy, and the authorship of individual letters is less important. Wright stresses that current preoccupations with authorship have a distorting effect on exegesis, and need to be reconsidered.

The Shepherd of Hermas

Constructing Ethnic Identity in 1 Peter Who You Are No Longer

Janette H. Ok, Azusa Pacific University, USA Janette Ok explores the benefits and liabilities of defining Christian identity along ethnic lines, challenging the Christian acceptance of geopolitical rhetorics of protecting borders, building walls, and keeping out illegal or unwanted immigrants. She examines how the writer of 1 Peter makes use of various literary and rhetorical strategies to characterize Christian Identity as an ethnic identity, including establishing a sense of shared history and ancestry, delineating boundaries, stereotyping and negatively characterizing 'the other'. Ok thus is able to highlight how these strategies bear striking resemblances to what modern anthropologists and sociologists describe as the characteristics of ethnic groups.

Christ Redeemed 'Us' from the Curse of the Law A Jewish Martyrological Reading of Galatians 3.13

Jarvis J. Williams, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, USA Jarvis J. Williams creates new insights into Paul’s defense of his Torah-free-gentile-inclusive gospel and rhetoric against his opponents. Williams argues that the Jewish martyrological ideas, codified in 2 and 4 Maccabees and in selected texts in LXX Daniel 3, provide an important background to understanding Paul’s statements about the cursed Christ in Galatians 3.13, and the soteriological benefits that his death achieves for Jews and Gentiles in Galatians. He further suggests that Paul modifies Jewish martyrology to fit his exegetical, polemical, and theological purposes, in order to persuade the Galatians not to embrace the ‘other’ gospel of their opponents.

Context and Criteria

A Dialogue on the Atonement in Hebrews

This volume considers three areas of methodological interest with respect to the use of the Old Testament in the New, comprising of several invited essays on each focus area. The first section opens up an interdisciplinary conversation as to what insights Old Testament and New Testament scholars might glean from other related disciplines. The second section looks specifically at how ancient authors conceived of the use of scripture in their writings, and the third examines the criteria that can and should be used for determining Old Testament allusions or echoes in the New Testament.

A definitive collection of studies on the atonement in Hebrews, relevant not only to Hebrews’ specialists but a far wider readership; a collection as important for what it says about the atonement and the 21st-century church as for what it says about Hebrews. Focusing on atonement not only in the Old Testament but also in the Greco-Roman world, and touching on themes such as sacrifice, plight and solution, and faith, these contributions shed light on the concept of the atonement in a directly scriptural way.

The Contest for Time and Space in the Roman Imperial Cults and 1 Peter Reconfiguring the Universe

Wei Hsien Wan, Independent Researcher and Schola, Malaysia This volume examines 1 Peter’s critique of the Roman Empire in terms of its ideology and worldview. Building on the work of David Horrell and Travis Williams on resistance against Rome in 1 Peter, and that of James Scott in analysing ideological resistance against domination, Wan considers how the imperial cults of Anatolia and 1 Peter offered distinct constructions of time and space. He argues that 1 Peter confronts Rome on a cosmic scale with its alternative construal of time and space and sets forth in the place of imperial imagination a theocentric, Christological understanding of the world.

The Path to Salvation in Luke's Gospel What Must We Do?

MiJa Wi, Nazarene Theological College, UK This book investigates Luke’s message of salvation in relation to socio-economic issues, and thus concerns salvation of the rich as well as the poor. With a narrative reading of Luke’s Gospel built on careful examination of its socio-economic context, it demonstrates that Luke’s message of salvation is best understood as: 1) Divine mercy which champions the cause of the poor and redresses the injustice of the world, 2) Its human embodiment, and 3) Divine reward promised to those who enact mercy.

The Media Matrix of Early Jewish and Christian Narrative Nicholas Elder, Marquette University, USA.

Nicholas Elder addresses media and modes of composition in antiquity, arguing that both the Gospel of Mark and the text Joseph and Aseneth were composed via dictation from their antecedent oral traditions. Elder focuses upon several shared features of the texts: they are both paratactically structured and contain few long, complex periods, they are repetitive and each employ a comparable proportion of active to passive voice verbs, and present and imperfect to aorist tenses. Elder offers new insights into the relationship between orality and textuality in early Judaism and Christianity, avoiding the so-called "great divide" approach to these issues.

The Proskynesis of Jesus in the New Testament A Study on the Significance of Jesus as an Object of "Proskuneo" in the New Testament Writings Ray M. Lozano, Biola University, USA Lozano investigates the use of the Greek term 'proskuneo' by examining the term's capacity to express various degrees of reverence directed toward a superior - ranging from a respectful greeting of an elder, to cultic worship paid to a god. Lozano looks at the term in reference to Jesus in the New Testament writings (Mark, Matthew, Luke-Acts, John, Hebrews, and Revelation) and in so-doing demonstrates that each of these New Testament writings, in their own unique ways, presents Jesus as a divine figure uniquely and closely linked to the God of Israel.

The Reception of Jewish Tradition in the Social Imagination of the Early Christians

Edited by John M.G. Barclay, University of Durham & Kylie Crabbe, Australian Catholic University, Australia This volume examines the reception of Jewish traditions in early Christianity, and how the meaning of these traditions changed when they were recruited into new contexts and for new social ends. The contributors emphasise the internal variety and malleability of these traditions, which underwent continual processes of change within Judaism, by challenging static notions of tradition and passive ideas of ‘reception’, and reassessing standard narratives of ‘the parting of the ways’ between ‘Christianity’ and ‘Judaism’.

Exploring the Nature and Text of the Diatessaron Edited by Matthew R. Crawford, Australian Catholic University, Australia & Nicholas J. Zola, Pepperdine University, USA In this volume, leading textual scholars explore the status of Tatian’s Diatessaron alongside received canonical texts.The contributors question whether the Diatessaron was intended to become a gospel in its own right, comparable to other early Christian gospels, or whether it was simply intended to present the canonical gospels alongside each other. These queries in turn contribute to the question of what the Diatessaron signifies with respect to the broader context of gospel writing, and what this can tell us about how the writing, rewriting and reception of gospel material functioned in the first and second centuries and beyond.

Emilie Kutash, Salem State University and Endicott College, USA

How have the goddesses of ancient myth survived, prevalent even now as literary and cultural icons? How do allegory, symbolic interpretation and political context transform the goddess from her regional and individual identity into a goddess of philosophy and literature? Emilie Kutash explores these questions, beginning from the premise that cultural memory can last thousands of years. Chapters follow the goddesses from their ancient Near Eastern prototypes, to their place in the epic poetry, drama and hymns of classical Greece, to their appearance in Platonic and Neoplatonic philosophy, medieval allegory and their association with Christendom.

Lived Wisdom in Jewish Antiquity

Studies in Exercise and Exemplarity Elisa Uusimäki, Aarhus University, Denmark This book delves into the lived, embodied and formative dimensions of wisdom as they are delineated in Jewish sources from the Persian, Hellenistic and early Roman eras. Considering a diverse body of texts beyond later canonical boundaries, Elisa Uusimäki demonstrates that wisdom features not as an abstract quality, but as something to be performed and exercised at both the individual and community level. Jewish wisdom is also contextualized in relation to its wider ancient Mediterranean milieu, making the book valuable for biblical scholars, classicists, theologians and scholars of religion and the ancient Near East.

An Ecology of Scriptures

Experiences of Dwelling Behind Early Jewish and Christian Texts Jolyon G. R. Pruszinski, Princeton Theological Seminary, USA

Afterlife and Resurrection Beliefs in the Apocrypha and Apocalyptic Literature

Jan Age Sigvartsen, Theologische Hochschule Friedensau, Germany

Pruszinski examines the experiences of domestic and quotidian space that contributed to the extant form of many foundational early Jewish and Christian scriptures. Analytical approaches are derived from diverse sources including modern psychological science, Gaston Bachelard’s critical theories of domestic space, and Henri Lefebvre’s observations regarding 'spatial practice'. The result is an innovative exploration of classic texts yielding exciting new interpretive possibilities for the Gospel of John, the Parables of Enoch, the Book of Revelation, and the Apocalypse of Zosimos.

Sigvartsen examines the immense interest in life after death, and speculation about the fates awaiting both the righteous and the wicked that proliferated in the Second Temple period. Sigvartsen systematically examines the texts of the Apocrypha, in particular those with an apocalyptic focus, and identifies and analyses the numerous afterlife and resurrection beliefs, enabling readers to easily understand and compare the wide-ranging beliefs on afterlife that these texts hold. The volume is a companion volume to Sigvartsen's other work on these themes in the Pseudepigrapha.

Afterlife and Resurrection Beliefs in the Pseudepigrapha

Jan Age Sigvartsen, Theologische Hochschule Friedensau, Germany An examination of the numerous afterlife and resurrection beliefs in the Pseudepigrapha. Sigvartsen offers a close reading of resurrection passages within the texts, demonstrating how they compare with each other, showing that often there is no evidence to suggest that they developed together, but rather are rooted in specific verses in TaNaKh. The volume examines testaments, expansions of stories and legends (such as Joseph and Aseneth) and also considers the posthumous body, the nature of the soul, and anthropological implications. The work is a companion volume to Sigvartsen's other volume on afterlife and resurrection in the Apocyrpha.

Goddesses in Myth and Cultural Memory

The Protevangelium of James

Greek Text, English Translation, Critical Introduction: Volume 1 George T. Zervos, University of North Carolina Wilmington, USA This is the first in a two-volume critical investigation of one of the earliest and most important of the New Testament Apocrypha, the Protevangelium of James (also known as the Infancy Gospel of James). Zervos challenges the prevailing view that the ProtJas is a 2nd century unitary document, and suggests rather that it is a product of an ongoing redactional process by which a first-century CE 'heretical' text was progressively conformed to the 'orthodox' Christian doctrine of the time.
