Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A New Testament scholar illuminates C. S. Lewis's writings on the BibleIn this highly original study, New Testament scholar Leslie Baynes illuminates C. S. Lewis's writing on the Bible. She reveals never-before-published notes, written by Lewis in books that he owned, that offer unique insight into his thinking on Scripture, and she identifies the figures who shaped his approach to biblical interpretation: Charles Gore, James Moffatt, Sister Penelope Lawson, George MacDonald, Austin Farrer, and more.While sympathetic to Lewis's work, Baynes uncovers problems, too. These hinge upon his understanding of the Gospel of John--as evidenced by essays like 'Modern Theology and Biblical Criticism' and the 'Liar, Lunatic, Lord' argument. The controversies Lewis takes up in these arguments encompass fundamental questions in Christian thought, and his responses to them have formed the minds of his readers for generations.

Between Interpretation and Imagination: C. S. Lewisand the Bible is a vital addition to any Lewis fan's library, offering rich insights into how this influential author wrestled with Scripture. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Books and writing, according to Jacques Derrida, are always concerned with questions of life and death. Nowhere is this more true than regarding the heavenly book motif, which plays an important role in early Judeo-Christian literature, and particularly in apocalypses. This book identifies four sub-types of the motif--the books of life, deeds, fate, and action--and examines their development and function primarily in Jewish and Christian apocalypses. It argues that the overarching function of the motif is to signify life and death for those inscribed: earthly life and death in its early appearances and eternal destiny in later texts. The first full-length analysis of the heavenly book motif in English, this study highlights a vital element of the genre apocalypse. …
