La metamorfosis infinita

Autor: Paul Pen

Número de Páginas: 302

Se llama Alegría. Tiene diecinueve años y toda la vida por delante. Esta noche ha quedado para salir con sus compañeras de academia. Se viste frente al espejo con la camiseta extragrande que deja al descubierto su hombro, mostrando el tatuaje de su mariposa favorita. En la cocina, se despide de su madre. Viven solas en un apartamento de la periferia, el primer hogar que han logrado construir tras un pasado marcado por la violencia. Ahora, después de muchos años, por fin están en paz. Lo que ninguna de las dos sabe es que el beso con el que se despiden en la cocina es el último que van a darse. Volviendo a casa de madrugada, Alegría se encuentra con un grupo de hombres en un callejón. Un supuesto coqueteo escala hasta la agresión. En el hospital, la madre de Alegría tan solo llega a tiempo de escuchar el sonido más terrible al que puede enfrentarse una madre: el último latido del corazón de su hija. La muerte de Alegría sacude a un país indignado con el asesinato de otra mujer. Masivas manifestaciones piden una pena ejemplar para los Descamisados, apodo con el que la prensa ha bautizado al grupo de agresores. Pero el juicio culmina con una injusta sentencia. Esta...

Storywalker

Autor: David Bridger

Número de Páginas: 316

Part-time librarian Molly Matthews lives with the painful and exhausting chronic illness ME. The condition has broken every part of her life, except that she has plenty of time to escape into books. Especially her favourite fantasy series, Tamass the Fearless. And when Molly escapes, she really escapes, because she possesses a rare talent that allows her to enter a book and meet its characters and share their adventures. Molly is a Storywalker. Novelist Paul Best doesn’t walk in stories, but he’s always been good at making them up. At least, that’s what he believes, until he learns that he’s spent years unconsciously channelling the life of his unknown twin brother Tamass as the hero of his successful series. When Tamass turns up at Paul’s door one dark and stormy night with murderous demons on his tail, it’s the start of a frantic multiverse-hopping adventure. And then there’s Molly, one of Paul’s readers, a woman who is so quietly ill in one world that she’s nearly invisible, but who is seen riding a warrior dragon in other worlds. A generation ago, the ruthless demon Baron Rake put an end to the snooping of Paul’s and Tamass’s parents into his plans to...

Autor: Tom Pollock

'I couldn't have asked for a more satisfying finale' Tor.com In this thrilling conclusion to the Skyscraper Throne trilogy, Beth will come face-to-face with the goddess of the streets . . . Perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere. Ever since Beth and Pen found their way into the hidden corners of London, the presence of its ruthless goddess, Mater Viae, has haunted its twisting streets. Now Mater Viae has returned with deadly consequences. The streets are wracked by convulsions as wires and pipe go into spasm, bunching the city into a crippled new geography; pavements flare to thousand-degree fevers, incinerating pedestrians; and towers fall, their foundations decayed. It seems there is nothing Beth and Pen can do to stop this insane goddess. As the city sickens, so does Beth - her essence now part of this secret London. But when it is revealed that Mater Viae's plans for dominion stretch far beyond the borders of the city, Beth must make a choice: flee, or sacrifice her city in order to save it. Our Lady of the Street is the third book and thrilling conclusion in The Skyscraper Throne trilogy.

The Theology of Paul's Letter to the Galatians

Autor: James D. G. Dunn

Número de Páginas: 184

Paul's Letter to the Galatians is one of the fiercest and most polemical writings in the Bible. That is what makes it, for the author of this study, such an exciting document to deal with. It emerges from the early days of a vigorous new movement (Christianity), when basic principles were first being formulated, and when the whole character of the movement was at stake. In the pages of Galatians we witness fundamental features of Christian theology taking shape before our eyes, where the living heart of Paul's gospel is encountered. For James D. G. Dunn there is an elemental quality about the letter, to which those tired of compromising half-truths are drawn when they feel the impulse to return to first principles. This book, which benefits from this perspective on Paul, explains more clearly than hitherto both the issues which confronted Paul and the powerful theological arguments he brought to bear in response, and casts light on a document still capable of shaping lives and theology today.

Paul's Joy Formula

Autor: Suan L. Chan

Número de Páginas: 88

Philippians was a fairly young church, about ten years of age. When writing this letter, Paul sensed himself at the jaws of death. Therefore, I encourage all of you to read this book as a valediction, like a father's farewell to his ten-year-old son. What message did the father want to convey to his young son when he could foresee how the orphan would soon be facing the same persecution as he did? Having this in mind, please set aside your intellectual mind and submerge yourself deep into Paul's intense struggles. Hear him saying how he was torn within himself. There was so much to tell and teach these young Christians, yet his time was running out, and worst still, his words were confined within a short letter. Truly, this is also Paul's last words to us. They are words of wisdom that Paul learned through years of his challenging walk of faith. I prayed that you will be blessed as you study this book and gain insight into Paul's joy formula.

Picturesque Prison

Autor: Jeffrey Heath

Número de Páginas: 356

This study of the life and works of Evelyn Waugh traces the novelist's pursuit of his vocation and his long retreat from a world which he came to regard as a spiritual dungeon. Jeffrey Heath explores the paradoxical elements in Waugh's career: his quest for a refuge itself proved to be a prison and his devotion to the Augustan graces was accompanied by a lasting attraction to a Dionysiac age without restratint. The deep cleft in Waugh's nature imbued his art with the characteristic quirky complexity which has fascinated many readers, but it left him a choleric and melancholy man who never fully accepted his calling as a writer.

From Grimes to Brideshead

Autor: Robert Reginald Garnett

Número de Páginas: 188

This book is a study of the first half of Evelyn Waugh's career, from Decline and Fall to Brideshead Revisited. Unlike recent criticism, which regards Waugh as essentially a moralist, this book argues that Waugh's characters are primarily motivated by personal demons and imaginative impulses.

The Ethics of Discernment

Autor: Patrick H. Byrne

Número de Páginas: 526

In The Ethics of Discernment, Patrick H. Byrne presents an approach to ethics that builds upon the cognitional theory and the philosophical method of self-appropriation that Bernard Lonergan introduced in his book Insight, as well as upon Lonergan’s later writing on ethics and values. Extending Lonergan’s method into the realm of ethics, Byrne argues that we can use self-appropriation to come to objective judgements of value. The Ethics of Discernment is an introspective analysis of that process, in which sustained ethical inquiry and attentiveness to feelings as “intentions of value” leads to a rich conception of the good. Written both for those with an interest in Lonergan’s philosophy and for those interested in theories of ethics who have only a limited knowledge of Lonergan’s work, Byrne’s book is the first detailed exposition of an ethical theory based on Lonergan’s philosophical method.

From Pentecost to Patmos

Autor: Craig Blomberg , Darlene M. Seal , Alicia M. Duprée

Número de Páginas: 698

Fully revised and updated edition. This companion volume to Craig Blomberg's widely-appreciated Jesus and the Gospels covers the rest of the New Testament, from the Acts of the Apostles to the book of Revelation. It surveys the most crucial matters of introduction in sufficient detail to provide the necessary background for correct interpretation of these New Testament texts. Mindful of the needs and interests of twenty-first-century students, the authors also deal with the structure and contents of each book, and the distinctive exegetical issues, and give pointers to contemporary application. The clear, accessible and up-to-date text includes numerous figures, maps and bibliographies. From Pentecost to Patmos enables readers to come to a better understanding of first-century Christianity and its literature that came to be treated as uniquely authoritative. This will lead to a greater appreciation of the Lord Jesus Christ, worshipped by the early church, often in hostile circumstances and in the face of difficulties remarkably similar to those the church experiences today throughout the world.

Parler par l'Esprit de Dieu

Autor: Cor Bruins

Número de Páginas: 114

Nous devons être remplis de l'Esprit. C'est la seule manière d'être efficace dans notre service pour le Seigneur à travers nos prédications, nos enseignements et notre vie quotidienne. Est-ce que cela veut dire que nous devons avoir le don de parler en langues ? Certains chrétiens pensent que c'est le cas, d'autres n'en sont pas convaincus, et d'autres ne partagent nettement pas cet avis. Dans ce livre, Cor Bruins nous présente le résultat de ses recherches sur le sujet à travers une étude détaillée du chapitre 14 de la première épître aux Corinthiens, un passage biblique clé concernant le don de parler en langues. Il examine ce chapitre en commentant différentes traductions de la Bible ainsi que le texte original grec. En faisant preuve de beaucoup de tact, l'auteur nous explique que nous avons souvent des opinions trop tranchées et que nous devons faire preuve de discernement lorsque nous abordons cette question. Il est donc important pour nous d'étudier l'Écriture pour voir si nos pratiques s'inscrivent dans la volonté de Dieu

Explorations in the Second Christian Century

Autor: Judith M. Lieu

Número de Páginas: 492

As allegiance to Jesus Christ spread across the Roman Empire in the second century, writings, practices, and ideas erupted in a creative maelstrom. Many of the patterns of practice and belief that later become normative emerged, in the midst of debate and argument with neighbours who shared or who rejected that allegiance. Authoritative texts, principles of argument, attitudes to received authority, the demands of allegiance in the face of opposition, identifying who belonged and who did not, all demanded attention. These essays explore those divergent voices, and the no-less diverse and lively debates they have inspired in recent scholarship.

War Brides and Rosies

Autor: Barbara Ann Lambert

Número de Páginas: 334

Nestled on the British Columbia coast, the community of Powell River sent several Canadian men and women overseas to fight in the World War II.

Barbara Ann Lambert recounts how the Powell River Company became a major player in war production as local girls became Rosies of the north, assembling planes for Boeing of Canada as well as running the largest pulp and paper mill in western Canada. Through their monthly newsletter, the company also became a social network. It included correspondence from Powell River's service men and women stationed around the world and news on overseas marriages. Using this resource, as well as accounts from war brides and their families, Lambert shows how these women influenced the communities and helped change the perspective of women's roles in Canadian society. Full of vivid detail, War Brides and Rosies is an important contribution to the local history of...

The Jews Among Pagans and Christians in the Roman Empire

Autor: Judith Lieu , John North , Tessa Rajak

Número de Páginas: 215

In the period of Roman domination there were communities of Jews, some still in Palestine, some dispersed in and around the Roman Empire; they had to face at first the world-wide power of the pagan Romans and later on the emergence of Christianity as an Empire-wide religion. How they coped with these dramatic changes and how they influenced the new forms of religious life that emerged in this period provide the main themes of The Jews Among Pagans and Christians. Essays by the leading scholars in the field together with the introduction by the editors, offer new approaches to understanding the role of Judaism and the pattern of religious interaction characteristic of the period.

Artemis, Eve, and the Image of God

Autor: Joseph A. Brennan

Número de Páginas: 225

What has gone so terribly wrong in Ephesus that Paul feels compelled to write the longest marriage code in the New Testament? 1 Peter only has seven verses about marriage. Colossians only has two. Titus only has two. Why does Ephesians have thirteen? Did Paul wish to set in stone the nature of gender relationships for all of time? Was he trying to ensure the survival of the emerging church amidst harsh Hellenistic realities of hierarchic marriage? Or did he have something else in mind? This is a book about the Ephesians 5 marriage code, the goddess Artemis, Eve, and the image of God in the believer. It explores the adverse influence of Artemis upon the Ephesian believers’ thought world, why Paul raises up Eve and Adam as the example of loving marriage (5:31), what Paul thought the image of God looked like in the believer, and why some Ephesian believers thought differently. Dr Brennan argues that the primary purpose behind Ephesians 5:21–33 was to evangelize non-believing Ephesian onlookers to an ideal of marriage in Christ’s new kingdom that far surpassed their personal experience in the first-century Roman world, and that Artemis was getting in the way.
