Catholics, Conflicts and Choices An Exploration of Power Relations in the Catholic Church by Angela Coco Many Catholics today are disenchanted with the Church’s continuing distrust of women and laity. But, despite this widespread dissatisfaction, traditional power relations have hardly changed over the last century. Catholics, Conflicts and Choices presents detailed interviews with lay people, priests, Sisters, and Christian Brothers, each discussing their personal struggles with church teachings and practices. The conversations are selected to illustrate different experiences of power relations, particularly different aspects of gender dynamics within the organizational structures of the Church. 256p (Acumen Publishing, March 2013, Gender, Theology and Spirituality) hardcover, 9781844656516, $99.95

Methods for the Study of Religious Change From Religious Studies to Worldview Studies edited by André Droogers and Anton van Harskamp The world of religious experience is changing much faster than the discipline which claims to study it. Religious Studies still uses Christianity as its measure, still frames the world through the model of five world religions, still largely avoids analysis of key issues around power, poverty, violence, pollution, science, and social conflict, and still looks to highlight differences rather than commonalities. This volume aims to redefine the study of Religion as the study of worldviews, of ideas which are active in shaping the world. 224p (Equinox Publishing, September 2013) paperback, 9781781790434, $34.95; hardcover, 9781781790427, $99.95 (s)

Between Personal and Institutional Religion Self, Doctrine, and Practice in Late Antique Eastern Christianity edited by Brouria Bitton-Ashkelony and Lorenzo Perrone This book addresses change and continuity in late antique Eastern Christianity, as perceived through the lens of the categories of institutional religion and personal religion. The interaction between personal devotion and public identity reveals the creative aspects of a vibrant religious culture that altered the experience of Christians on both a spiritual and an institutional level. By approaching the period in terms of ‘revision’, the contributors discuss the mechanism of transformation in Eastern Christianity from a new perspective, discerning social and religious changes while navigating between the dynamics of personal and institutional religion. 400p (Brepols Publishers, March 2013, Cultural Encounters in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages 15) hardcover, 9782503541310, $167.00 (s)

Mind, Morality and Magic Cognitive Science Approaches in Biblical Studies edited by István Czachesz and Risto Uro The cognitive science of religion that has emerged over the last twenty years is a multidisciplinary field that often challenges established theories in anthropology and comparative religion. Mind, Morality and Magic draws on a range of approaches to the study of the human mind – including memory studies, computer modeling, cognitive theories of ritual, social cognition, evolutionary psychology, biology of emotions, and research on religious experience. The volume explores how cognitive approaches to religion can shed light on classical concerns in biblical scholarship – such as the transmission of traditions, ritual and magic, and ethics – as well as uncover new questions and offer new methodologies. 320p (Acumen Publishing, November 2013, BibleWorld) hardcover, 9781844657339, $120.00

What is Bible? edited by Karin Finsterbusch and Armin Lange This volume addresses the surprising lack of scholarly discussion on the use and meaning of the terms “Bible” and “biblical.” It highlights not only the differing, contrasting, and even opposing ways in which these terms are used in scholarly discourse, but engages scholars from various countries with different religious orientations and from different schools of thought in reflections on the terms at hand from their particular perspectives. The contributions highlight the key differences between Jewish and Christian understandings of Bible and canon. Bible and biblical are theological concepts, not historical or linguistic ones. 453p (Peeters Publishers, October 2012, Contributions to Biblical Exegesis & Theology 67) paperback, 9789042927018, $73.00

The Proto-Lucianic Problem in 1 Samuel by Tuukka Kauhanen The Lucianic text of the Historical Books is demonstrably a late, recensional text, but it has numerous curious agreements with the earliest witnesses against B and the majority of the manuscripts. Tuukka Kauhanen aims at throwing light on this proto-Lucianic problem in 1 Samuel (1 Kingdoms) by taking a comprehensive view of all the relevant witnesses. Kauhanen concludes that there are significantly less of actual proto-Lucianic readings than has often been supposed and refutes the old theory of the proto-Lucianic recension. 270p (Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, December 2012, De Septuaginta Investigationes 3) hardcover, 9783525534595, $98.00 (s)

The Faces of the Other Religious Rivalry and Ethnic Encounters in the Later Roman World edited by Maijastina Kahlos The foundations of European civilization as we know it today were laid in Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages. This volume traces the roots of the attitudes and argumentation about religious or ethnic otherness in modern western culture discussing the conceptions, depictions, and attitudes towards the other in Graeco-Roman antiquity. These others are ethnic others such as the Persians, Huns, and the Germanic peoples were to the Romans, or religious others such as the Jews were to the Christians or Christians to Jews, Christians to pagans or pagans to Christians, or different cults to the ‘mainstream’ Romans, or different Christian sects to each other. 324p (Brepols Publishers, December 2012, Cursor Mundi 10) hardcover, 9782503539997, $116.00 (s)

410 – The Sack of Rome The Event, its Context and its Impact edited by Johannes Lipps, C. Machado and Philipp von Rummel 24 August 2010 marked the 1600th anniversary of the Sack of Rome by the Visigoth King Alaric and his troops. The capture of the caput mundi marked a caesura in this history of the eternal city. It was by pagans and Christians alike seen as a global event, found various echoes in contemporary literature and was perceived and commented upon far beyond Rome itself. The anniversary of this ‘global event’ was the occasion to analyze the construction of this sack of Rome from different disciplines, to analyze the range of meaning of the year 410 in its reception, and to see the city of Rome as a symbol for collapse and renewal in an international conference organized by the German Archaeological Institute at Rome. This volume presents 30 archaeological and historical papers of that conference with new archaeological data, discussion of the question ‘what led up to the event,’ and the consequences thereafter. 450p (Dr. Ludwig Reichert Verlag, June 2013, Palilia 28) paperback, 9783895009440, $69.00 (s)

Speaking to the Eye Sight and Insight through Text and Image (1150–1650) edited by Thérèse de Hemptinne, Veerle Fraeters, María Eugenia Góngora This volume takes as its focus the paradoxical double-bind of textuality and visuality in the culture of the high and late Middle Ages and early modernity. In a series of case studies, contributors explore the historical and theoretical implications of the idea that texts and images alike speak to the eye. Contemporary sources describe and define the experience of reading texts and images as involving a mixture of visual and aural impulses that address both the inner eye and the outer senses. This volume sets out explicitly to investigate the specific, sensuous nature of this experience. 298p, 37 b/w illus (Brepols Publishers, March 2013, Medieval Identities: Socio-Cultural Spaces 2) hardcover, 9782503534206, $131.00 (s)

Staging the Court of Burgundy edited by T.-H. Borchert, W. Blockmans, N. Gabriëls, J. Oosterman and A. Van Oosterwijk In the course of the 15th century, the reputation of the Burgundian court rose to an unprecedented level, catapulted forward by ever growing territorial ambitions and accumulation of wealth. This reached a climax during the reign of Charles the Bold (1433–1477), the living embodiment of the pomp and pageantry of the Burgundian court and a generous patron of the fine arts. Rather than focusing on a single domain, this volume aims to shed light on Burgundian court culture as an organic whole, between the start of the reign of Philip the Good (1419) and the death of Mary of Burgundy (1482). 396p, 50 col & 200 b/w illus (Harvey Miller Publishers, March 2013, Studies in Medieval and Early Renaissance Art History) hardcover, 9781905375820, $167.00 (s)

City Painters in the Burgundian Netherlands by Jacob Wisse Around the year 1400, a new official position was created for artists in several major centers in the southern Netherlands. Appointed by the municipal government, these city painters were paid an annual salary and provided with the benefits and titles of civic office. Their primary responsibility was to organize and decorate an annual procession known as the ommegang. Drawing on extensive firsthand documentation from municipal accounts and records, this book reconstructs the origins and development of the official city painter over the course of the fifteenth century. At the same time, it addresses the changing status of artists during this period and examines civic patronage as an impetus for generating new artistic goals in the Burgundian Netherlands. 300p, illus (Brepols Publishers, May 2013, Ars Nova 6) hardcover 9782503512310, $145.00 (s)

Gothic Manuscripts c. 1260-1320 by Alison Stones French culture in the period c. 1260-1320 is marked by a surge in demand for fine illustrated books of all kinds: science, medicine, law, philosophy, literature in verse and prose, alongside books for private devotion and liturgical celebration. Some patrons were well-known rulers, court figures, or members of the clergy, but others were less significant players on the political or ecclesiastical scene, many of them unimportant in rank or unknown by name.

The Japanese Print An Interpretation by Frank Lloyd Wright The influence that Japan - as well as its culture and architecture - exerted on the celebrated American architect Frank Lloyd Wright is most evident in his own creations. Unlike his contemporaries in the United States, who viewed European architecture as part of their heritage, Wright chose Japan and the Japanese culture as his aesthetic model. This influence was also reflected in his collections of art objects, sculptures and, above all, prints.This new deluxe edition is based on the 1967 edition of The Japanese Print and includes further writings on the subject by Wright: Shibaraku (Wright’s introduction to the Arts Club Exhibition Catalogue 1917), In Trust for Posterity (Wright’s introduction to the Anderson Galeries Exhibition Catalogue 1927), The Ancient Journal of Japan and In Pursuit of the Print (both of which come from Wright’s 1943 Autobiography). This is a very attractive, large format (royal quarto), slipcased edition. The edition is limited to 1000 copies and each is numbered. 144p, 32 col illus (Klincksieck, October 2012, L’esprit et les formes 37) hardcover, 9782252038673, $209.00 (s)

Catalogue of Illuminated Manuscripts of the Museum Plantin-Moretus, Antwerp by Lieve Watteeuw and Catherine Reynolds From the 16th to the 19th century, illuminated manuscripts were collected by the great printer-publisher Christophe Plantin and his Moretus successors and descendants. Ranging in date from the 9th to the mid- 16th centuries, the manuscripts in the Museum Plantin-Moretus come from all over Europe, chiefly the Southern Netherlands and France with a significant representation of 15th-century Dutch illumination. More surprisingly, about a quarter of the collection comes from England: manuscripts of the 10th to 15th centuries that left the country with Catholic refugees.

Astronomy and Mathematics in Ancient India Astronomie et mathématiques de l’Inde ancienne Actes de la journée d’études organisée le 24 avril 2009 à l’Université Libre de Bruxelles edited by J.M. Delire Though India is nowadays a part of our daily media environment, its science, as ancient as Greek science, is still not well-known and is insufficiently included in history of science manuals. This book aims at helping to fill this gap by letting some of the best specialists in Indian astronomy and mathematics express themselves. They recount the evolution of these sciences, from the Aryabhatiya (6th century) to the works of the Keralese astronomers-mathematicians (13th-14th centuries), via treatises on prosody (14th century) and on astrolabe making produced since the same period. These treatises are described in association with the oldest Sanskrit astrolabe, preserved in Belgium. 199p (Peeters Publishers, September 2012, Lettres Orientales 17) paperback, 9789042926141, $52.00

Holy War and Rapprochement Studies in the Relations between the Mamluk Sultanate and the Mongol Ilkhanate (1260–1335) by Reuven Amitai The relations between the Mamluk Sultanate of Syria and Egypt and the Ilkhanate, the Mongol state in Iran and the surrounding countries, were of a military, political-diplomatic, social and cultural nature. They had a profound impact not only on these states themselves, their ruling elites and the general population, but also on neighboring countries and beyond. This volume provides an overview of the military struggle between these two regional powers, continues with a detailed discussion of the ideological posturing and sparring in the 1290s, and reviews and compares how the Mamluks and Mongols presented themselves to the local, mainly Muslim, populations they ruled. 400p (Brepols Publishers, March 2013, Miroir de l’Orient Musulman 4) paperback, 9782503531526, $87.00 (s)

The Mecca Festival by Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje, translated and edited by Wolfgang H. Behn An enormous advance in the study of Islam is the study of the Dutch scholar and Privy Councillor of the Netherlands, Christiaan Snouk Hurgronje, distinguished by a profound acquaintance with the Arabic sources, a sense of historicity, penetrating criticism, and persistent logical line of argument. In his Leiden doctoral study on the Mecca pilgrimage, he convincingly demonstrates that all Koranic passages referring to Islam as the “religion of Abraham” make sense only in the context of Muhammad’s Medinan period. Wolfgang Behn now provides an English translation in a language common to Orientals and Occidentals alike that helps to adequately appreciate The Mecca Festival. 132p (Harrassowitz Verlag, March 2012) hardcover, 9783447067010, $72.00 (s)

Indo-Europeanization – Day One Elite Recruitment and the Beginnings of Language Politics by Harald Haarmann Language politics, or the instrumentalization of language by those with political power, has a long history. Although the agendas of language politics have been widely studied, little is known about the origins of the relationship between language and politics. Recent research has produced insights into the initial emergence of power relations in human society. These point to a close link between the emergence of power relations and the spread of Indo-European languages. Harald Haarmann now presents the first systematic study of the initial phase of Indo-Europeanization. 174p (Harrassowitz Verlag, August 2012, Eurolinguistische Arbeiten 6) paperback, 9783447067171, $75.00 (s)

A Scottish National Canon? Processes of Literary Canon Formation in Scotland by Stefanie Preuss The “Best Scottish Book of All Time” is Lewis Grassic Gibbon’s novel ‘Sunset Song’. This, at least, was the result of a public vote organised in 2005. But what is a Scottish book? And who decides which books are considered canonical? Until the 1960s, the apprehension of Scottish literature as merely a lesser sub-branch of English literature was a common notion. Since then, however, Scottish literature, as well as academic scholarship on Scottish writing, has been systematically promoted by means of grants, bursaries or literary awards. This revival was the result of a concerted policy of canonisation by literary institutions, which had its beginning in the eighteenth century. Such strategies of Scottish canon formation since the Union of Parliaments are the concern of the present study. For the first time, it identifies the different agents involved in Scottish canon formation and analyses how canon formation in Scotland is related to nationalist identity politics. 381p (Universitätsverlag Winter, July 2012, Anglistische Forschungen 427) hardcover, 9783825360139, $99.00 (s)

Various psychodramatic techniques and instruments supplement the current methods of music therapy.

De la caverne à la pyramide Écrits sur le cinéma 1914–1925 by Vachel Lindsay, edited by Marc Chénetier “Edison is the new Gutenberg. He invented the new printing,” states Vachel Lindsay in 1914, in the first book ever devoted to cinema. This work is proof of the strong conviction of Lindsay: from the Platonic myth and the guesswork of parietal painting to the iconic and verbal beauties of Egyptian hieroglyphs, it encourages modern man to “think in pictures” and America to recognize in cinema the only possible grammar for the lexicon of its national imagination. This new edition of the seminal book (L’art du cinema) includes articles by Lindsay that appeared in The New Republic in 1917, as well as extensive extracts from the manuscript of a second, unpublished book.

‘Forever Young’? The Changing Images of America edited by Philip Coleman and Stephen Matterson These essays have their origin in the 2010 EAAS Biennial Conference, held in Dublin. The topics addressed here include: the interactions between youth and age; the idealization of youth in American culture juxtaposed with the increasing actuality of an ageing society; the relationship between war and youth; the cultural constructions of youth and age, and the changing nature of community in the US. Above all, these essays reflect on what it means to be American, and they examine the ways that Americanness has been construed and constructed from a wide range of cultural contexts and spaces. 271p (Universitätsverlag Winter, July 2012, European Views of the United States 4) hardcover, 9783825359676, $60.00 (s)

Glauben an einen Gott, den es nicht gibt Manifest eines atheistischen Pfarrers by Klaas Hendrikse Is a pastor allowed to not believe in God – at least not in the personal God of traditional teachings? And is a pastor allowed to say so? The author describes his spiritual journey from non- believer to atheist community pastor. Authentically and convincingly he explains why he believes that God lives in human relationships and “faith” is more a matter of living than religion. This book, translated here from the Dutch original, has given rise to lively discussions and has sold more than 40,000 copies in the Netherlands alone.
