How Reading C.S. Lewis Can Change Your Life

Routledge Studies in Evangelicalism

From the transatlantic revivals of the 1730s and 1740s through to the tumultuous years of the Napoleonic Wars, evangelicals thought a great deal about church history and the relationship of the past with recent events. In this ground-breaking study, Darren Schmidt considers the emergence and development of evangelical Protestantism in the North Atlantic context during the long eighteenth century, through the lens of history-writing by evangelicals themselves. Considering the writings of prominent early evangelicals such as Jonathan Edwards, John Newton and John Wesley, along with lesser known historians with evangelical connections, the volume asks why these individuals, amidst busy lives of pastoral ministry, study, and guidance to a fledgling religious movement, would devote their attention to the pages of the past. In so doing, Schmidt draws out new and intriguing connections between evangelicalism and the wider enlightenment world.

Evangelical History-Writing and the Construction of Identity, 1735-1810

War, Culture and Society

Through an in-depth analysis of wartime essays and literary works, Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War considers the similarities and differences in the way that writers from both North and South Korea perceived and experienced the conflict. 

In this book, Jerôme de Wit examines the social impact of major themes in the output of these writers, such as the notion of collaboration, the portrayal of the enemy and heroes, and the role of women during war, to further our understanding of the wartime identities that were constructed by the two Koreas. The result is a nuanced and enlightening study which provides a base for a full exploration of the role culture in the formation of North and South Korean states.

Until now, most studies have tended to focus on the Korean War's role in big power relations or on Korea's role in Cold War history. Literature and Cultural Identity during the Korean War demonstrates that the struggle was simultaneously an international 'total' war as well as a civil one. It is an important study for anyone interested in the literature and culture of the Korean War.

Husein Ðozo (1912-1982), was a prominent Bosnian scholar and mufti who lived and worked in communist Yugoslavia. Ðozo responded to the challenges he and his people were faced with, above all the so-called 'Yugoslav Communism' and modernity. Through the prism of Ðozo's spirit and thought, the ideas of the so-called 'modernist' and 'reformist' interpretations of Islam gained a dimension in Eastern Europe. Contextualising Ðozo's work and ideas in relation to both modern and to a lesser extent classical Islamic scholarship, this book is the first indepth study of the thought and writings of any contemporary Bosnian Muslim scholar in English.

This book is the first major study of the constellation of evangelists, mission halls, tent revivals, children's clubs, Bible institutes, musicians, advertising strategies, publishing enterprises, and philanthropic activity that constituted a vibrant substratum of British Evangelical Christianity between the mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries. This populist Protestant subculture has been well-charted in North America but virtually ignored in Britain. This lacuna is part due to a common assumption that secularization? corroded traditional religious communities during this era. By contrast, this book argues that this panoply of pan-denominational affinities and endeavours in fact represented an adaptation of the British Evangelical Protestant tradition to the age of mass democracy. In exploring the beliefs, worship and spirituality, gender roles, mission networks, revival events, material culture, and social protocols and taboos of popular Evangelicalism, the book presents a religious movement well-attuned to an age of popular politics, metropolitan culture, demotic advertising, and mass entertainment.

While Tÿbingen theologian Eberhard Jÿngel's theology remains broadly influential in Continental Europe, his work has largely been overlooked by Anglo-American readers interested in modern Protestantism. There are, however, signs that this trend is changing, as several dissertations, specialist monographs, and popular blog-sites have appeared recently that are devoted to Jÿngel's thought. There is thus a growing audience for the proposed study, which will be the first up-to-date, English-language, general introduction to Jÿngel's theology to appear in three decades. Nelson offers an interpretation of Jÿngel's theology that is unique.

Jewish Lives

A revealing biography of one of the twentieth century’s most influential writers &nbsp; Philip Roth (1933–2018) is one of the most celebrated American writers of his age. Born in Newark, New Jersey—where his short stories and thirty-one books were often set—he wrote with immense ambition and drive, along with a keen awareness of what must be done to produce great literature. Yet despite rubbing shoulders with the Kennedys and engaging in a spate of famous and infamous romances, he viewed himself as socially withdrawn, living much like an “unchaste monk” (his words). &nbsp; In this original and lucid biography, Steven J. Zipperstein captures Roth’s complex life and the astonishing range of his self-reflective writings—from “Goodbye, Columbus” and Portnoy’s Complaint to the Pulitzer Prize–winning American Pastoral and The Plot Against America. Employing extensive archival research and well over one hundred interviews, including conversations with Roth himself, Zipperstein provides an intimate and probing look at one of the twentieth century’s most influential authors, placing his work in the context of Jewishness, freedom, and sexuality in America.

Arguably the greatest novel of the twentieth century, James Joyce's Ulysses remains as much of a shocking and redemptive testament to the human condition as it was when it was first conceived in 1914. Following the events of a single day in Dublin and the experiences of Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, Ulysses' ceaseless verbal and formal inventiveness and its astonishing wide-ranging allusions continue to have a profound influence on contemporary culture. A new, annotated students' edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text, now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork, this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

For Joyce, literature is 'the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man'. Written between 1914 and 1921, Ulysses has survived bowdlerisation, legal action and bitter controversy. An undisputed modernist classic, its ceaseless verbal inventiveness and astonishing wide-ranging allusions confirm its standing as an imperishable monument to the human condition. A new edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text - now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork - this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

Ayurveda, Spirituality and Healing examines the changes undergone by the South Asian health-care tradition, Ayurveda, as a result of its assimilation into the Western holistic health milieu over the last four decades. It explores the ways in which the mind-body-spirit sector in the West, with its focus on seekership, spirituality, and self-empowerment through self-understanding, shapes Ayurveda's interpretation, promotion and practice in modern transnational Anglophone contexts. As with other Eastern traditions that have gained popularity in the West in recent times, 'globalised' Ayurveda has generated a host of competing discourses on what constitutes 'authentic' tradition, and whether Western forms of this tradition can be considered legitimate. This book makes a unique contribution to the scholarship on the subject by arguing that the new forms of Ayurveda in the Western holistic health milieu must be taken seriously, not dismissed as 'inauthentic', or measured against traditional South Asian forms of Ayurveda. These new manifestations reflect the particular concerns of 'alternative' health practitioners in late-capitalist contexts in the West, who draw upon this tradition in creative and expedient ways to address the perceived needs of their times.
