Paperback. Zustand: Good. The mission of the apostle Paul, to proclaim the gospel to the nations, continues to be of vital relevance for the Christian church at the beginning of the twenty-first century.By Paul's own testimony, the gospel he was set apart to preach focused on Jesus Christ, crucified and risen, as the fulfilment of God's promises (Romans 1:1-13). Hence if we are to be true to the apostle, we must seek to understand his mission and message from the perspective of biblical theology.This impressive collection explores facets of such a perspective, under four broad headings: the Old Testament background to Paul's mission; New Testament studies; the wider context of the world in which Paul's message was proclaimed; and the use of that message in history and contemporary thought.These essays offer fresh and important contributions to Pauline studies, and were commissioned in honour of Peter T O'Brien (Vice Principal, Moore College, Sydney), who has made Paul's concerns his own through distinguished scholarship and personal ministry.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 355 pages. Published in 2013. Book-length biography on subject. The single most important book on the brief, tragic life and sublime literary art of Danilo Kis. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, particularly the regular trade softcover edition. Published in a tiny first print run as a hardcover original only by a University Press. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Mark Thompson's "Birth Certificate: The Story of Danilo Kis". The first critical biography on Kis. "A Yugoslav novelist, essayist, poet, and translator whose work generated storms of controversy in his homeland, but today holds classic status. Kis was championed by prominent literary figures around the world: Joseph Brodsky, Susan Sontag, Milan Kundera, Philip Roth, Nadine Gordimer, and Salman Rushdie. As more of his works become available in translation, they are prized by an international readership drawn to Kis' innovative brilliance as a storyteller and to his profound meditation on history, culture, and the human condition. A subtle analysis of a rich and varied body of writing, 'Birth Certificate' is also a careful and sensitive telling of a life that experienced some of the last century's harshest cruelties. His writing pioneered Modernist techniques, fulminated against kitsch, and sketched out a literary heritage 'with no Sun as its Center and Tyrant' " (Publisher's blurb). Kis' influence has been enormous and trans-continental: For example, it is not possible to fully understand Roberto Bolano's roots and "breakthrough" achievement without tracing his lineage back to Borges, who, in turn, influenced Kis. As the triumph (rather than anxiety) of influence goes, both Borges and Kis "infiltrated" Bolano, the greatest Spanish-language novelist of our time. An absolute "must-have" title for Danilo Kis collectors. This title is a late-modern classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. Danilo Kis' "Hourglass" is regarded by Joseph Brodsky and Susan Sontag as one of the greatest novels of the 20th century. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century. A fine copy.
