Out of the Depths

'Evocative' Sarah Perry'Immersive' Katherine May'Profoundly moving' Mark HaddonDiscover Catherine Coldstream's compelling account of life as a nun in the 1990s, and the dramatic events which led to her flight from the monastery. After the shock of her father's death, and with the rest of her family scattered, Catherine was left grieving and alone at twenty-four. A search for meaning led her to the nuns of Akenside Priory. Here she found a tight-knit community of dedicated women and peace in an ancient way of life. But as she surrenders to her final vows, all is not as it seems behind the Priory's closed doors. Catherine comes to realise that divine authority is mediated through flawed and all-too-human channels. She is faced with a dilemma: should she protect the serenity she has found, or speak out?'Gripping... A rich memoir' Daily Telegraph'Absorbing and beautifully written' Financial Times

'A profoundly moving memoir which gripped me' Mark Haddon Discover Catherine Coldstream’s evocative account of life as a nun in the 1990s, and the dramatic events which led to her flight from the monastery. After the shock of her father’s death, twenty-four-year-old Catherine was left grieving and alone. A search for meaning led her to Roman Catholicism and the nuns of Akenside Priory. Here she found a tight-knit community of dedicated women and peace in an ancient way of life. But as she surrenders to her final vows, all is not as it seems behind the Priory’s closed doors. Power struggles erupt – with far-reaching consequences for those within. Catherine comes to realise that divine authority is mediated through flawed and all-too-human channels. She is faced with a dilemma: should she protect the serenity she has found, or speak out? A love song to a lost community and an honest account of her twelve years in the Order, Cloistered is also a cautionary tale about what can happen when good people cut themselves off from the wider world. ‘Immersive, beautifully observed’ Katherine May 'I admired [Cloistered] enormously' Sarah Perry ‘An intense and often theatrical read’ Financial Times **A BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK**

Routledge Studies in the Biblical World

This book invites a close textual encounter with the first 11 chapters of Genesis as an intimate drama of marginalised peoples wrestling with the rise of the world's first grain states in the Mesopotamian alluvium.

Studia Judaica

Despite the fact that it was never really accepted as part of European academia before the Shoah, the tradition of Wissenschaft des Judentums that emerged after the Enlightenment period spread throughout most of the European-Jewish communities, creating independent institutions, producing an impressive record of research on Jewish history, religion, literature and culture, and engaging in a creative and critical dialogue with other scholarly disciplines. Building on new research topics and exploring innovative theoretical and methodological approaches, this volume, written by an interdisciplinary group of scholars, provides the first comparative, transnational history of the different traditions and networks of Jewish Studies in Europe during the 19th and 20th centuries. Particular emphasis is put on the mutual perceptions and interactions of those national and local traditions as well as on the impact the challenges of modernity had on Jewish scholarship and its self-definition within the different social and cultural contexts in Europe.

A groundbreaking collection of original essays on the meaning, depth, and breadth of liturgical theology. The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Liturgical Theology offers an unprecedented account of this rapidly growing and interdisciplinary field. Unique in its depth and scope, this comprehensive volume defines the field of liturgical theology, examines its historical development, describes its mission and methodologies, reviews key theory and literature, and more.

Designed for students and scholars alike, the companion serves as both an introduction to the field and as a clarion call to push the boundaries of existing research. The collected essays incorporate constructive research and practical application in essential areas of liturgical theology, discussing foundational topics including liturgical ecclesiology, linguistics and hermeneutics, the epistemology of liturgy, and the holy sacraments. Looking toward the future of the field, many essays focus on emerging subjects such as womanist liturgical theology, liturgy and trauma, and liturgical theology as ecclesial discernment. This unique state-of-the-art overview: <ul> <li>Brings together contributions by a diverse panel of scholars representing more than a dozen denominations spanning five continents.</li> <li>Features a detailed introductory section containing traditional hermeneutics, literature reviews, and methodological examinations.</li> <li>Bridges the generational gap between younger and older practitioners within the field.</li> <li>Describes the current state of liturgical theology and suggests future research directions, placing liturgical theology within the broader scheme of theological inquiry.</li></ul>The first research-based volume of its kind, The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Liturgical Theology is the perfect textbook for seminarians and lay students in courses on liturgical theology, the history of worship, and practical theology, as well as a valuable resource for theologians of all disciplines.

Barth Studies

North American and British circles often assume that Barth was the great opponent of modern theology. German interpreters, however, have viewed Barth's appropriation of modern philosophy in much more positive terms. This book seeks to respond to the gulf separating Anglo-American interpreters from their continental counterparts. Mark Ralls considers Barth's relationship to modernity from the provocative, yet largely unexamined, question of the human self. Ralls argues that Barth preserves the modernist claim that the self has a self-identity established by free self-determination, while establishing the self anew as the covenant partner of God.  This paradoxical understanding of the self may avoid both the false optimism of modern subjectivity and the daunting cynicism of postmodern deconstruction.

Parmenides: New Perspectives

Education, Literary Culture, and Religious Practice in the Ancient World

Davina Grojnowski examines Life, the autobiographical text written by ancient Jewish historian Flavius Josephus, from a literary studies perspective and in relation to genre theory. In order to generate a framework of literary practices, Josephus' Life and other texts within Josephus' literary spheres-all associated with autobiography-are the focus of a detailed literary analysis which compares the texts in terms of established features, such as structure, topoi and subject. This methodological examination enables a better understanding of the literary boundaries of autobiography in antiquity and illustrates Josephus' thought-process during the composition of Life. Grojnowski also offers a comparative study of autobiographical practices in Greek and Roman literature, demonstrating the value of passive education supplementing what had been taught actively and its impact on authors and audiences. As a result, she provides insight into the development of literary practices in reaction to various forms of education and subsequently reflects on the religious (self-) views of authors and audiences. Simultaneously, Grojnowski reacts to current discourses on ancient literary genres and demonstrates that ancient autobiography existed as a teachable literary genre in classical literature.
