Arthur's Call: A Journey of Faith in the Face of Severe Learning Disability
ISBN: 9780281070459 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. A leading theologian recounts her journey of faith, shaped as it has been by caring for a profoundly disabled son for forty-five years, while also being a writer, university teacher and Methodist minister. This completely new version of the author's Face to Face (Epworth, 1985) has a different perspective, articulating the way in which this life-dominating experience has given privileged access to the deepest truths of Christianity. The book therefore combines narrative with theological reflection. The narratives provide background for developing theological accounts of cross and creation,...

God's Presence: A Contemporary Recapitulation of Early Christianity
ISBN: 9781107642782 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 490 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 2011, Frances Young delivered the Bampton Lectures in Oxford to great acclaim. She offered a systematic theology with contemporary coherence, by engaging in conversation with the fathers of the church - those who laid down the parameters of Christian theology and enshrined key concepts in the creeds - and exploring how their teachings can be applied today, despite the differences in our intellectual and ecclesial environments. This book results from a thorough rewriting of those lectures in which Young explores the key topics of Christian doctrine in a way that is neither simply dogmatic...

Biblical Exegesis and the Formation of Christian Culture
ISBN: 9780521581530 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book challenges conventional accounts of early Christian exegesis of the Bible by placing its interpretation in the context of the Greco-Roman world. Professor Young describes how the Jewish scriptures were taken over, added to and reinterpreted as part of the process of forming the identity of the new Christian "race" with its distinct culture. Young emphasizes the importance of the way education was based on literature in the Roman Empire, and demonstrates how the methods and assumptions then taken for granted shaped Christian exegesis of scripture.

Ways of Reading Scripture: Collected Papers
ISBN: 9783161540998 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 510 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume consists of previously published articles by Frances Young, a scholar of early Christianity, well-known for her work Biblical Exegesis and the Formation of Christian Culture, together with a few newly composed additions. The studies collected here are concerned with the New Testament, but their approach is often not in the modern historico-critical mode. Rather, they bring new insight through being informed by the author's patristic specialism, by methodological enquiries, by her interest in doctrinal and theological reading, and by exploration of the very nature and function of...

ISBN: 9780334049654 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The -dry bones- of the title are the critical equipment of the Christian scholar, wrestling with Bible and tradition; and the -life- they may or may not be capable of is the enriching of that Christian perspective on things which transforms and renews the possibilities of action and imagination. So Dr Young is as passionate about the seriousness of professional, painstaking scholarship as she is about the need for a pastorally nourishing theology... The book overall illustrates the creative reappropriation of several levels of the Christian heritage movingly described in particular instances...

Can These Dry Bones Live?
ISBN: 9781608998852 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Frances Young, who won high critical acclaim for her deeply committed book, Sacrifice and the Death of Christ, seeks to convey the excitement of the theological quest, the excitement of studying the Bible, the excitement of wrestling with what might seem outmoded and irrelevant ways of thinking and discovering that there is a chiming with experience. She offers a study of atonement as a demonstration of the possibilities. It stems from a deep preoccupation with suffering and its meaning, the outstretched arms of the crucified Christ, the image of the woman in travail. But this suffering and...

Construing the Cross
ISBN: 9781498220026 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book reconsiders ways in which the cross of Christ was construed before ""atonement theories"" narrowed the categories. The ""typology"" of Passover is explored as probably the very first way in which Christians came to understand the passion. The use of sacrificial imagery is re-examined. The significance of identifying the cross with the Tree of Life is traced across the centuries into medieval times, along with other surprising links with the Eden narrative. The validity of seeking imaginative insights to grasp what the cross signifies is given theological consideration in a chapter...

This collection of articles first brings together a number of working papers which were significant in the development of Frances Young's understanding of patristic exegesis, studies not included in her ground-breaking book, Biblical Exegesis and the Formation of Christian Culture (1997), though paving the way for that work.

Biblical Exegesis and the Formation of Christian Culture
ISBN: 9780801048166 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In this study of the influence of the late ancient educational system on patristic biblical exegesis, simplistic reductions to discrete methods (moral, typological, allegorical) and schools (Alexandrian, Antiochene) give way to a more nuanced appreciation. Professor Young's lucid study shows how early Christians used the interpretive tools of Greco-Roman culture to build an alternative Christian culture on the basis of the biblical text.

Brokenness and Blessing: Towards a Biblical Spirituality
ISBN: 9780232526561 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Frances Young explores the ways in which the earliest theologians and preachers read the Bible, and seeks to recover a sense of the importance of the spiritual meaning of the text, as much as the literal or historic meaning. She attempts to bridge a gap between the work of biblical scholars and what is practised and believed by faithful church-goers, by drawing on the wisdom of the church Fathers and exploring their relationship with scripture. Brokenness and Blessing brings together Frances Young's years of work as a scholar in the field of Biblical Studies, and as a preacher, as well as her...

""Dr. Young surveys the different types of ideas of sacrifice current in the ancient world, and indicates both their limitations and lasting force. She shows what early Christianity made of the idea of Christ's sacrifice and discusses the spiritual sacrifice it demanded of Christians. A perceptive treatment of the different theories of atonement follows and the continuing moral force of the idea of sacrifice is illustrated and defended."" --Journal of Theological Studies ""This happy blend of understanding of the past with...

Focus on God
ISBN: 9781498207140 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Focus on God is a plea to do just that--focus on God. In recent years, many ministers and priests have lost confidence in the value of their work. Many have wondered whether the clergy still have a role in the life of the community. Here is an exciting picture of the minister as a resource person, able to communicate some of the riches of our theological heritage to the new generation of Christians and able to appropriate some of the rewards of scientific and cultural explorations for the nourishment of the life of the church. The minister is seen as the person who can bring together...
