The Advent of Christ: Scripture Reflections to Prepare for

Perhaps the Christmas story has become almost too familiar. A virgin giving birth. A child laid in a manger. Shepherds greeted by angels. The Christmas story has become so familiar that the profound,even shocking,nature of the incarnation might be overlooked. But what if we had never heard the story before? What if we were hearing it for the first time,like the first-century Jews? These events certainly would not be taken for granted—they would signal something new: the dawning of the long-awaited M

The Secular Scripture: A Study of the Structure of Romance

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Frye, Northrop, PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, Northrop Frye's thinking has had a pervasive impact on contemporary interpretations of our literary and cultural heritage. In his "Anatomy of Criticism," a landmark in the history of modern critical theory, he demonstrated his genius for mapping out the realm of imaginative creation. In "The Secular Scripture" he turns again to the task of establishing a broad theoretical framework, bringing to bear his extraordinary command of the whole range of literature from antiquity to the present. Romance, a mode of literature trafficking in such plot elements as mistaken identity, shipwrecks, magic potions, the rescue of maidens in distress, has tended to be regarded as hardly deserving of serious consideration; critics praise other aspects of the "Odyssey," "The Faerie Queene," Shakespeare's last plays, and Scott's "Waverley" novels, for example, while forgiving the authors' indulgence in childishly romantic plots. Frye, however, discerns in the innumerable romantic narratives of the Western tradition an imaginative universe stretching from an idyllic world to a demonic one, and a pattern of action taking the form of a cyclical descent into and ascent out of the demonic realm. Romance as a whole is thus seen as forming an integrated vision of the world, a "secular scripture" whose hero is man, paralleling the sacred scripture whose hero is God. The clarity of Northrop Frye's perception, the scope and suggestiveness of his conceptualizing, the wit and grace of his style, have won him universal admiration.

The Orthodox Corruption of Scripture: The Effect of Early

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ehrman, Bart D., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, The victors not only write the history, they also reproduce the texts. In a study that explores the close relationship between the social history of early Christianity and the textual tradition of the emerging New Testament, Ehrman examines how early struggles between Christian "heresy" and "orthodoxy" affected the transmission of the documents over which, in part, the debates were waged. His thesis is that proto-orthodox scribes of the second and third centuries occasionally altered their sacred texts for polemical reasons--for example, to oppose adoptionists like the Ebionites, who claimed that Christ was a man but not God, or docetists like Marcion, who claimed that he was God but not a man, or Gnostics like the Ptolemaeans, who claimed that he was two beings, one divine and one human. Ehrman's thorough and incisive analysis makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the social and intellectual history of early Christianity and raises intriguing questions about the relationship of readers to their texts, especially in an age when scribes could transform the documents they reproduced to make them say what they were already thought to mean, effecting thereby the orthodox corruption of Scripture.

My name is J. Blas. From the time I was small I have enjoyed arts and crafts. When I was 17,I started my own ceramic workshop. Due to my lack of experience,I had to shut it down and went to work in a ceramics museum. I changed directions and began to work in wrought iron and blown glass. Currently I again have my own workshop where we craft a variety of products,mostly decorative. We cut the metal sheets and hammer them into shape,then weld them and add the details. After that,they are treated to retard rust before we paint them with a special,lead-free paint. Every piece created at my workshop goes hand in hand with originality,design and quality.
