Alfred Loisy and the Making of History of Religions by Annelies Lannoy Pdf
This monograph studies the professionalization of History of religions as an academic discipline in late 19th and early 20th century France and Europe. Its common thread is the work of the French Modernist priest and later Professor of History of religions at the Collège de France, Alfred Loisy (1857-1940), who participated in many of the most topical debates among French and international historians of religions. Unlike his well-studied Modernist theology, Loisy’s writings on comparative religion, and his rich interactions with famous scholars like F. Cumont, M. Mauss, or J.G. Frazer, remain largely unknown. This monograph is the first to paint a comprehensive picture of his career as a historian of religions before and after his excommunication in 1908. Through a contextual analysis of publications by Loisy and contemporaries, and a large corpus of private correspondence, it illuminates the scientification of the discipline between 1890-1920, and its deep entanglement with religion, politics, and society. Particular attention is also given to the role of national and transnational scholarly networks, and the way they controlled the theoretical and institutional frameworks for studying the history of religions.
The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church by Andrew Louth Pdf
Uniquely authoritative and wide-ranging in its scope, The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church is the indispensable reference work on all aspects of the Christian Church. It contains over 6,500 cross-referenced A-Z entries, and offers unrivalled coverage of all aspects of this vast and often complex subject, from theology; churches and denominations; patristic scholarship; and the bible; to the church calendar and its organization; popes; archbishops; other church leaders; saints; and mystics. In this new edition, great efforts have been made to increase and strengthen coverage of non-Anglican denominations (for example non-Western European Christianity), as well as broadening the focus on Christianity and the history of churches in areas beyond Western Europe. In particular, there have been extensive additions with regards to the Christian Church in Asia, Africa, Latin America, North America, and Australasia. Significant updates have also been included on topics such as liturgy, Canon Law, recent international developments, non-Anglican missionary activity, and the increasingly important area of moral and pastoral theology, among many others. Since its first appearance in 1957, the ODCC has established itself as an essential resource for ordinands, clergy, and members of religious orders, and an invaluable tool for academics, teachers, and students of church history and theology, as well as for the general reader.
Material Aspects of Reading in Ancient and Medieval Cultures by Anna Krauß,Jonas Leipziger,Friederike Schücking-Jungblut Pdf
This publication seeks to endeavour the relationship between material artefacts and reading practices in ancient and medieval cultures. While the acts of reception of written artefacts in former times are irretrievably lost, some of the involved artefacts are preserved and might comprise hints to the ancient reading practices. In form of case studies, the contributions to this volume examine various forms of written artefacts as to their implications on modes of reading. Analyzing different Qumran scrolls, codices, Tefillin, Mezuzot, magical texts, tablets, bricks, and statues as well as meta-textual and iconographic aspects, the articles inquire the possibilities of how to correlate material aspects to assumed modes of reception and practices of reading. The contributions stem from Egyptology, Papyrology, Qumran Studies, Biblical Studies, Jewish Studies, Ancient Christianity, and Islamic Studies. In total, this volume contributes to the research on practices of reception in times past and demonstrates the potential hidden in text-bearing artefacts.

Determined by Christ: The Pauline Metaphor ‘Being in Christ’ by Barbara Beyer Pdf
What does it mean that the believers are ‘in Christ’ (Rom 8:1; 2 Cor 5:17 etc.)? The phrase has become so common to Christian discourse that it obscures the original meaning. By analysing key passages and stripping back the interpretive layers, this book portrays ‘in Christ’ in the light of Greek language usage. Insights from metaphor theory, onomastics, and ritual theory further the investigation. The book also addresses prepositional phrases like ‘with Christ’ and how ‘in Christ’ developed in the deutero-Pauline letters. This comprehensive perspective illuminates a crucial early-Christian phrase and how believers viewed their relationship to Christ.

Early Christianity in Lycaonia and Adjacent Areas by Cilliers Breytenbach,Christiane Zimmermann Pdf
This work gives a survey of the rise and expansion of Christianity in ancient Lycaonia and adjacent areas, from Paul the Apostle until Amphilochius. It gives special attention to forms of charity, the reception of biblical tradition, the authority and leadership of the clergy, popular theology and forms of ascetic Christianity.
Exploiting the discoveries that he draws on so expertly in his 'Light from the Ancient East', Deissmann's intent here is to understand Paul in his historical and geographical setting. While not a sociological study according to contemporary standards, Deissmann's emphasis is clearly on people and their daily lives. His emphasis is on Paul as a social being, not as a theologian.

Albert Schweitzer's Thoroughgoing De-eschatologization Project as a Secular Soteriology by Anthony Obikonu Igbokwe Pdf
Albert Schweitzer is well-known not only as a humanitarian but also as a writer. But in spite of the popularity of his writings, his thought has been often misunderstood and misrepresented. Many scholars were concerned exclusively with either his theological or his philosophical approach, without understanding how both perspectives closely intertwine in his thought. This book studies Schweitzer's writings as an oeuvre and reveals the underlying soteriological intent. Schweitzer was a victim of his own worldview which denied the possibility of incarnation with its salvific consequences. Consequently, he affirmed "reverence for life" in negligence and denial of God's salvific self-revelation in Jesus Christ. Based on the dogma of Chalcedon, todays Christology, however, is called to continue working for a transformed worldview that admits faith in Jesus as the Messiah and Saviour, and sustains hope for resurrection, eternal life and the new creation.
