The Our Father is so much more than a simple, rather harmless prayer, suitable for saying Grace, ending meetings, or - due to the apparent absence of recognizable Christian theology - Interfaith conferences. This book does away with this innocuous approach and examines this prayer as what it originally was: a succinct summary of the Lord’s teaching, more akin to a creed than a petition. It represents a radical break with the theology prevalent at Jesus’ time and proves thus another substantive piece of evidence why its author was accused of blasphemy and sentenced to die on the cross. Here is a book which removes the debris of centuries, digs deep to get to the Pearl and restores its glorious luster.

  • The Eagle Returns
    C. Paul Burnham / CPaul Burnham
    The Gospel of John was long assumed to be the work of an eyewitness, usually identified as John, son of Zebedee. More recently, many have judged it the unhistorical product of a ''Johannine community.'' Reconsideration by Richard Bauckham has suggested that the author was a Jerusalem disciple who housed the ''Last Supper.'' This book explores the possibility that he was present...

    del mayor guitarrista de la historia del tango. Con solo percibir el empleo del plectro (la llamada púa de guitarra en nuestro canyengue) descubrimos un sonido y estilo tan particular que terminó por deslumbrar a todos.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...
  • Tommaso Traetta and the Fusion of Italian and French Opera in Parma
    George W. Loomis
    In 1759, the court of the Italian Duchy of Parma adopted the inspiration of cultural creators who recommended a reform of Italian opera along French lines. These writers favored combining Italian-style music with the wider range of musical genres and scenic variety of French opera. As the music critic and commentator George W. Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...
  • Somerset Maugham and the Cinema
    Robert Calder
    William Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) was one of the most prominent and productive authors of the twentieth century-and his works have been among the most cinematically transformed in history. For more than five decades, adaptations of his plays, stories, and novels dominated movie theaters and, later, television screens. More than ninety individual works were filmed, and for ma...

  • Singing the Faith
    Georg Retzlaff
    Sunday gospel readings are normally 'enforced' by hymns selected by the organist, according to suggestions made by a choirmaster’s handbook. Often the choice is rather limited, both in number and intellectual or theological content. Preaching the gospel can be seriously undermined by a gospel hymn which reflects thinking not exactly suited to the 21st century or, for that matte...

  • What Jesus Taught and Why It Matters
    Georg Retzlaff
    Do Jesus and His Gospel really matter? Looking at Christianity today, 2000 years later, one wonders whether what He shared with the world was quickly smothered by Old Testament legalism, Zoroastrian fantasies, Greek philosophical speculations, and Germanic folk traditions. Most Christians seem to think that their religion is about 'going to heaven', eternal life after death, so...

  • Why the Cross?
    Georg Retzlaff
    Holy Week is an almost entirely private event in our culture. Apart from Palm Sunday and Easter there are no public holidays, no processions, no pageantry, often not even Church services to mark the last days of Christ on earth. There may be some evening worship, mostly poorly attended, to guide us through His passion. But this is a week that deserves our focused attention even...

  • Church Psalter
    Georg Retzlaff
    The Christian Church has had a love-hate relationship with the Book of Psalms: it is supposedly the church’s hymn book but every Sunday we select, leave out, bracket certain sections which are not in accordance with the Gospel of Jesus. There are many arcane person and place names as well as theological concepts which often stand in the way of comprehending the Christian messa...

  • The Other Side
    Georg Retzlaff
    From Sunday School days on we are often asked to take sides in order to shape our moral universe: we learn about right and wrong, good and evil, saints and sinners, villains and heroes. Especially the Old Testament offers a wide range of easily identifiable and categorizable characters: Cain and Lamech and Pharaoh and Goliath belong in one box; Abel, David, and Job in another. ...
