The Rebel Job: Revised Edition
ISBN: 9781439229033 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Our world is fascinating, but life on this planet is not easy. For many the Book of Job contains the message, which we need to deal with the realities of this life. But who can understand the Book of Job? The Rebel Job is the poem that was buried, by the "righteous," in the Book of Job. The Rebel Job deals with suffering without resorting to fantasy. He was too radical for his "righteous friends," who believed in an all-powerful God, who demanded fear. For the rebel this God did not exist. The rebel has given us a great gift.

Genesis, a Royal Epic
ISBN: 9781610973014 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: Genesis ""was a political document of the state, and its major function was to exalt David and his monarchy, not only with his own people but also among the other states of that world. The scribes of the monarchy used many sources for this work, and certainly the literary criticism of the past has helped us to isolate many of these sources. However, the view presented here is quite different from the older criticism in that the sources that were used in this work must date from before the exile. This is obvious, if the sources were used by the scribes of the Davidic monarchy....

The Many Voices of Job
ISBN: 9781606086568 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 134 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: In this compelling work, Fisher brings a fresh understanding to the book of Job by highlighting the four main sections of the book that have truly different perspectives: the folktale, the poetic dialogue, the poem on wisdom, and Elihu's speeches. As he says in the Preface, ""the poem and its author were framed in both meanings of that word. The Ancient Folktale of Job formed a frame that was ancient and ornate, and it ruined the inserted poem or dialogue. It caused both books to be misunderstood."" Anyone interested in a fresh translation and a vibrant analysis of Job will want...

The Eloquent Peasant, 2nd edition
ISBN: 9781625649041 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 82 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Four thousand years ago, Egyptian society struggled with the downfall of the Old Kingdom, which brought an end to material success and introduced anarchy and chaos. Out of this period of crisis came such literature as A Dialogue between a Man and His Ba, Instructions to Meri-ka-Re, as well as the story recounted in this volume, The Eloquent Peasant. In this story, Khun-Anup, a poor peasant, was robbed, beaten, and scorned by Nemtinakht, who was well connected. Khun-Anup appealed to authorities for redress but had to make his appeals nine times. This compelling narrative recounts the peasant's...

Tales from Ancient Egypt: The Birth of Stories
ISBN: 9781606086575 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 116 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Egyptian tales witness to some of the great moments in the history of Egyptian literature and represent the earliest beginnings in world literature. Many literary critics do not seem to know the importance of Egyptian prose tales told for entertainment (including C. S. Lewis, who does not know that the "marvelous that knows itself as myth" was alive and well by 1800 BCE). Unlike some other ancient states, both Israel and Egypt wrote epic tales in prose. And these great prose stories are important for the study of the Hebrew Bible. Some of the most exciting narrative prose parallels to the...

Poems: On Being Human
ISBN: 9781463581930 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1976 I resigned my position as Professor of Hebrew Bible at the School of Theology at Claremont and Professor of Semitic Languages and Literature at the Claremont Graduate University at Claremont CA. I was concerned about world food problems, and I wanted to save a ranch. Also I felt the need to take time to smell the roses. After leaving the academic scene I moved to a ranch in Round Valley, CA. These poems point to some important moments from 1976 to 2011 in my life. Also my response to those events and some thoughts about my work are summarized in these poems. For me it was important to...

Flashes of Freedom
ISBN: 9781497598171 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this volume, I have a collected many things, but I want to emphasize the subject matter contained in the title: Flashes of Freedom. For me it is important to discover creative moments from the past. However, it is also important to give the humans, who came up with such ideas and moments, credit for their contributions to the development of civilization. These steps forward are fascinating, but we are also faced with those who destroy creative moments. Their backward steps are tragic.

The Blue Pine Table: Poems, Essays, and Stories
ISBN: 9781481834353 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Blue Pine Table features metaphorical poems that spring from daily living in the real world. It also contains a few essays and a short story, "Black Clam Beach." The present world provides material aspects for the metaphors. The blue pine table is my metaphor. The story behind it is also a metaphor. It moves us beyond what is describable and comprehensible. It takes us beyond our inadequate language and the literal but never all the way. Thus the metaphor remains forever alluring and beckoning. It can give birth to a new hope of clarity within a future horizon.

Toward the end of his life, Loren Eiseley reflected on the mystery of life, throwing light on those dark places traversed by himself and centuries of humankind. The Night Country is a gift of wisdom and beauty from the famed anthropologist. It describes his needy childhood in Nebraska, reveals his increasing sensitivity to the odd and ordinary in nature, and focuses on a career that turns him inward as he reaches outward for answers in old bones.
