Eschatology and Ethics in the Teaching of Jesus: Second Edition
ISBN: 9781625647511 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description:
In recent years, studies in the eschatology and ethics of Jesus have provoked an unusual interest among Bible students. When talking about the coming of the kingdom, did Jesus mean that there would be a divine intervention or a catastrophe? If so, were his ethical teachings intended for an emergency situation--interim ethics? This book provides an admirable introduction to eschatology in general. Dr. Wilder argues for an interpretation of the evidence that maintains the full significance of Jesus: that his eschatology, far from being a liability, represents a true disclosure of...

Early Christian Rhetoric: The Language of the Gospel
ISBN: 9781625646361 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description:
An illuminating New Testament study depicts the power and beauty of language that speaks with the words of God and man. Words call man to battle or summon him to prayer. More and more, today man is analyzing his language and asking: What is the purpose of language? What do the words we speak mean? What is their religious significance? Dr. Wilders extraordinary work attempts to answer these questions and, in particular, to study the qualities of the language that ushered in a new religion, the early Christian faith. Description:

New Testament Faith for Today
ISBN: 9781625646385 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description:
What was the faith behind the proclamations of Jesus, the message of Paul, and the Johannine witness--and how can it be recovered today? This penetrating and provocative book seeks to probe the various formulations of religious faith in the New Testament with a view to recovering the real essence and genius of Christianity today. Dr. Wilder sees three principal strains--often harmonious but sometimes disparate--in New Testament faith: the proclamations of Jesus, the message of Paul, and the witness of John the Evangelist. First, he studies what has happened to our faith since... Description:

Otherworldliness and the New Testament
ISBN: 9781625645807 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: "The one great and telling charge made against Christian religion in the modern period," writes Amos Wilder, "is that it is otherworldly, escapist and irrelevant to the problems of life." There is a good deal of truth in this charge, Dr. Wilder feels--whether we look at Catholicism or Protestantism, orthodoxy or liberalism. Christianity, in one way or another, has given the impression of being mainly concerned with the next world or with private religious experiences, to the neglect of the needs of men in everyday life. Here is an answer to the charge. Our common human...

Amos Wilder calls for a renewal of our deep religious imagination as we reflect on biblical faith and on the basic needs and longings of contemporary persons. This requires a new appreciation for mystery and for "deep" speaking to "deep."
"Sparks of wit and insight make Theopoetic a notable monument to the ongoing vitality of Wilder's lifelong determination to remain faithful both to the biblical witness and the imperatives of the imagination." ? Journal of the American Academy of Religion Amos Wilder calls for a renewal of our deep religious imagination as we reflect on biblical faith and on the basic needs and longings of contemporary ...

Theology and Modern Literature
ISBN: 9781625646378 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 166 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description:
We live in a world that calls for the separation of church and state, and the separation of religion and the arts is of a piece with this divided culture. However, this long-standing breach between Christianity and the arts narrows in view of the notable development of mutual interest and conversation between theology and literature. Dr. Wilder discusses this historic cleavage and then sets forth, first from the side of imaginative literature and then from the side of the church, the evidence for an emerging bridge of this gulf. The most significant arts of our time have dealt... Description:

Thornton Wilder and His Public
ISBN: 9781625643896 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: Thornton Wilder, three-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize, remains to many people an enigma. Malcolm Cowley indicated that ""in point of intelligent criticism, Wilder is the most neglected author of a brilliant generation,"" and the Times Literary Supplement once observed that ""Thornton Wilder has successfully resisted any kind of classification as a novelist or playwright."" In this revealing, incisive study, Amos Wilder, Thornton's older brother, seeks to situate his brother's vision and art. Much criticism, dominated my modernist canons, has not known what to do with Thornton...

Jesus' Parables and the War of Myths: Essays on Imagination in the Scriptures
ISBN: 9781625643933 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: Amos Wilder is widely known as a pioneer of an indigenously North American approach to biblical interpretation which takes language to be an expression not only of psychological but also of sociological and concrete reality. Recording the history of his interest in eschatological language, Wilder further advances the literary and rhetorical criticism of Scripture, especially by alerting interpreters to the deeper modes of language and communication often overlooked. The essays in this volume, recaptured and edited to clarify their relatedness, are presented in two groups. The...
