Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Modern biblical scholars often view the methods they employ as objective and neutral, tracing the history of modern biblical scholarship to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In this volume, Jeffrey Morrow examines some earlier, lesser known roots of modern biblical scholarship. He explores biblical scholarship from the fourteenth through the seventeenth centuries and then discusses its new place in the Enlightenment of the eighteenth century where such scholarship would flourish. Far from merely an objective and neutral method, such scholarship was never without philosophical, theological, and political underpinnings. Morrow concludes the volume with a look at the separation of biblical studies from theology, using the example of Catholic moral theology in the twentieth century.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Originating with Boccaccio during the Italian Renaissance, the novella, a cyclical collection of frame stories in prose, quickly inspired many imitations in Italy, France, Spain and Great Britain. However, it was not widely used in Germany until the end of the eighteenth century, when, inspired by Goethe, the genre retained the original medium but abandoned the cyclical format; after this, it rapidly grew in popularity, dominating the nineteenth century literary scene, and became the object of much artistic and critical speculation. The orthodox theory of the novella, formulated by Goethe, Tieck, and Heyse in the previous century, has sharply divided the critical establishment; defended in modern times by such scholars as McBurney Mitchell, Hermann Pongs, Johannes Klein, Martin Swales, and Henry Remak, it has been sharply attacked by others, including Oskar Walzel, Harry Steinhauer, John Ellis, and Karl Konrad Pohlheim. The axiomatic assumption that the novella form exists as an independent, identifiable genre has been undermined to such an extent that one school of thought declares there to be no such genre. The German Novella: Two Centuries of Criticism is the only work in English or German that illuminates the main currents of theory formation, evaluation, and revaluation from its inception with Wieland to the present, tracing a path through the huge amount of critical material devoted to the novella. SIEGFRIED WEING (April 8, 1942-October 10, 2004) was professor of German language and literature at the Virginia Military Institute for 36 years.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This introduction to Philip Glass's music reflects the belief of Kostelanetz that the avant-garde minimalist is a popular composer. There are detailed analyses of his compositions and particular attention is paid to the composer's musical development. Glass undertook rigorous training at Juilliard and with Nadia Boulanger in Paris but decided early on that he wanted to compose independently, apart from institutions, causing him to become a controversial figure among academic musicians. This work brings together a collection of writings on Philip Glass's work, along with several interviews and a conversation between Glass and sculpter Richard Serra.…
