Hardback. Zustand: Good. On the surface, the book of Ruth tells the tale of an unlikely marriage between a destitute Moabite widow and an upstanding citizen of a Judean village. The deeper import of the story, however, has to do with the internal boundaries that define the people of God. Is Israel a closed community, held together exclusively by bonds of kinship, or a nation that welcomes faithful outsiders into its sphere of belonging? Ruth appropriates marriage as the symbolic vehicle of a transformation in Israel's self-understanding from a community articulated by Naomi's declaration that her daughters-in-law marry within their own people, to the acclamations by the people of Bethlehem that endorse Boaz's marriage to a Moabite. L. Daniel Hawk undertakes a detailed narrative analysis of Ruth that goes beyond the description of its content and stylistic features to illumine its deep structure and use of metaphor. Informed by contemporary studies on ethnicity, he discovers a work of remarkable sophistication that employs a story of intermarriage to address opposing ideas of Israelite identity. Hawk's meticulous attention to patterned structures, stylistic devices and characterization reveals the strategy by which the narrator constructs a vision of Israel that looks beyond rigid internal boundaries to the welcome of faithful foreigners as agents of blessing.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. What does Joshua hold to be the essential marks of Israelite identity? What distinguishes Israel from all other peoples? In tracking these themes, L. Daniel Hawk reveals in Joshua a profound struggle to define the people of the God of Israel.Hawk shows that the themes surrounding Joshua express fundamental markers of national identity: religious practice (obedience to the commandments of Moses), ethnic separation (extermination of the peoples of Canaan), and possession of land ("the land that YHWH gives"). Through the medium of narrative, Joshua tests each of these markers and demonstrates that none clearly characterize the people of God. Instead, Joshua presents Israel as a nation fundamentally constituted by choosing: YHWH's choosing of Israel and Israel's choosing of YHWH.In the present day in which ideologies of religion, race, and territorial possession have given rise to countless expressions of violence, Hawk expresses the particular value of reading Joshua. The Joshua story holds a mirror up to all who regard themselves as the people of God. The reflection is both repelling and inspiring but until we confront it, what it truly means to be the chosen people of God will remain elusive.Chapters are "Rights of Passage (1:1-18)," "Who's Who in the Promised Land? (2:1-12:24)," "Strangers in the Night (2:1-24)," "Changing State (3:1-4:24)," "First Things First (5:1-15)," "Going in Circles (6:1-27)," "Ai Spy (7:1-8:35)," "Foiled Again (9:1-10:27)," "Conquering Canaanites (10:28-12:24)," "Organizing Israel (13:1-21:45)," "Altar Egos (22:1-34)," "Unfinished Business (23:1-18)," and "Decisions, Decisions (24:1-33)." Includes twelve charts that lay out structural features of the book.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book began in the research of the relations between humans and nature. It was set up to examine the relation between human disrespect, even desecration, of the wilderness, and then allowing human activities to deteriorate the larger natural environment. It went into issues of how humans relate to each other, via regulation as threats, then how that carried over into how humans attempt to regulate their relations to nature, via threats. The research evidence showed how strategic threats in fact solved no problems, and in fact worsened relationship problems between humans. This weakness was seen to carry over into worsening human relations to nature.Much of his book comes from research carried out for his PhD dissertation in systems sciences, University of Pennsylvania. The research was based in Sweden at the Institute of International Business, Stockholm School of Economics. Twenty firms and six governments collaborated with the project. Worked on 1972 Olympic Competition winner in Stuttgart, Germany, then as a city planner for Westminster City Council in London, then as a city designer for a Philadelphia firm. Served as a professor in various universities in the US and Sweden, Finland, Japan, England, and China. Was an associate Dean of a US architecture school for its first accreditation. Served as dean of a US business school where it was awarded most improved AACSB business school. Developed many university programs and courses. Developed and taught courses in engineering, materials, architecture, planning, corporate leadership, business management and public policy. Developed PhD granting Institutes for executives leading companies: one in Sweden called IIB, the other in Finland called EXIMA.…
