History preserves the name of the person responsible for the first New Testament, the circumstances surrounding his work, and even the date he decided to build a textual foundation for his fledgling Christian community. So why do so few people know about him? Jason BeDuhn introduces Marcion, reconstructs his text, and explores his impact on the study of Luke-Acts, the two-source theory, and the Q hypothesis.

Augustine's Manichaean Dilemma, Volume 1: Conversion and Apostasy, 373-388 C.E.
ISBN: 9780812242102 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Augustine of Hippo is history's best-known Christian convert. The very concept of "conversio" owes its dissemination to Augustine's "Confessions," and yet, as Jason BeDuhn notes, conversion in Augustine is not the sudden, dramatic, and complete transformation of self we likely remember it to be. Rather, in the "Confessions" Augustine depicts conversion as a lifelong process, a series of self-discoveries and self-departures. The tale of Augustine is one of conversion, apostasy, and conversion again. In this first volume of "Augustine's Manichaean Dilemma," BeDuhn reconstructs Augustine's...

Augustine's Manichaean Dilemma, Volume 2: Making a Catholic Self, 388-41 C.E.
ISBN: 9780812244946 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 552 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. By 388 C.E., Augustine had broken with the Manichaeism of his early adulthood and wholeheartedly embraced Nicene Christianity as the tradition with which he would identify and within which he would find meaning. Yet conversion rarely, if ever, represents a clean and total break from the past. As Augustine defined and became a "Catholic" self, he also intently engaged with Manichaeism as a rival religious system. This second volume of Jason David BeDuhn's detailed reconsideration of Augustine's life and letters explores the significance of the fact that these two processes unfolded...
