In The Children of Israel, Danna Nolan Fewell explores how imaginative readings of selected scriptural texts might raise adult consciousness and responsibility toward children. Through stories, quotes, vignettes, and notes, Fewell provides different kinds of reading experiences, with different levels of coherence and disjunction, depending on how much the reader decides to delve into the critical apparatus or the framing dialogues.

Representing the Irreparable: The Shoah, the Bible, and the Art of Samuel Bak
ISBN: 9781879985186 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The art of Samuel Bak depicts a world destroyed and yet provisionally pieced back together.

ISBN: 9781608991570 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 141 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. We are interested in subverting the notion of "type" when it comes to biblical characters. We prefer, instead, to see the characters in Ruth as complex people, not merely built around a single primary trait, like loyalty, altruism, or generosity.People may exhibit conflicting traits and are often different people. There is no reason why the same should not be true of literary characters. Accordingly we have tried not to define the "selves" of this narrative too tightly, and if we have over determined them, we recognize that as a fault. In short, the characters of this story have far more...
