    The Church Incarnate. By Rudolf Schwarz. Translated by Cynthia Harris. Regnery. 232 pp. $7.50. The Church Incarnate is a rare book, a profound exposition of the meaning of architecture in its sacred function of church building. Its author, Rudolf Schwarz, is one of Germany's greatest living archi­ tects. So it is indeed a rare occasion when an artist of such stature combines with intensity of creative vision the ability to communicate by written word his insights and discoveries. Departing from the common trend of much modern Church architecture, in which functional formalism predominates (shapes smoothly blended, now to startle, now to serve), the author searches for the fundamental meaning of forms and surfaces as they build, not streamlined serviceable frameworks, but rather the sacred space there­ in contained, the space where the sacrificial act of Christian cult takes place. Redeemed mankind's relation to God, though objectively and dogmatically hopeful, has throughout history assumed varied modali­ ties, sometimes anguished, other times confidently familiar, occasional­ ly fatalistic. The spiritual climates engendered by these modalities have inevitably shaped the plans of its temples. All such plans can be reduced to six basic designs, six funda­ mental structures whose hollows embody the plight of man in the face of eternity. These are not merely elemental geometric shapes out of which beautiful constructions can rise. Rather they are vital spatial relations which, using the universe as platform, represent, as natural images, the ineffable kinship of man to his Maker. Their symbolism is not, therefore, arbitrarily imposed upon them by the human artist whose function is best described as revealing the meaning that God, from all eternity, had placed in the component forms of the plans.

  • Friars' Bookshelf 175 Indispensable for a Thorough Understanding of the Formal Treatment of St
    Paul the Apostle. By Giuseppe Ricciotti. Translated by Alba I. Zizzamia. Milwaukee, The Bruce Publishing Co., 1953. pp. 540. $7 .50. To attempt a biography of Paul the Apostle is like trying to harness a hurricane. Paul was pneumatic, spirit-swept, animated by the breath of God Himself. He in turn moved like a mighty wind over the Greco-Roman world, shaking the pillars of an empire, sweep­ ing everything Christward, to become the veritable Godparent of Christianity. To crystalize in print so boundless a personality is to conquer the unconquerable. Perfect achievement is impossible. The best to be hoped for is a favorable issue with fractional success. Father Ricciotti has not done the impossible, but he has made a magnificent try. To those familiar with his Life of Christ this will be no surprise. As difficult a subject as St. Paul poses, it is child's play compared to a biography of the Son of God. Since his L-ife of Clzrisi is universally acknowledged as one of the finest portrayals of our Saviour ever to appear, it is only to be expected that the com­ paratively less challenging life of St. Paul would be another trium­ phant masterstroke. It is, without question. With a talent unique among authors who utilize biblical themes, Father Ricciotti imparts to his work an orientation neither exegetical, nor literary, nor devotional, nor theological. Fundamentally, he is a classicist who works with Scriptural subject matter. The quality peculiar to his writing is the authentic reproduction of the Imperial Roman atmosphere of the first century, the world in which the fire of Christianity was first ignited.

  • Dr. Lea Scazzocchio Sestieri (1913 - )
    Contemporary Voices in Jewish-Christian Dialogue #7 Dr. Lea Scazzocchio Sestieri (1913 - ) (Largely translating the work of Dr. Marco Morselli in Italian: http://moked.it/blog/2013/05/31/un-secolo-di-vita-con-lea-sestieri/ ) If there were an award given for the longest life lived in the field of Jewish-Christian relations, it seems quite likely that the prize would go to Dr. Lea Sestieri. Dr. Sestieri, one of Italy’s most respected and prolific scholars in the modern Jewish-Christian dialogue, turns 102 this year and, until very recently, was still very involved in the community, offering her reflections rooted in a long, rich life which has witnessed the birth—and the flowering—of that interreligious friendship, in Italy and elsewhere. A native of the Eternal City (Rome), Lea Sestieri was born on May 31, 1913, one of five children born to Sabatino Settimio and Margherita Toscano; one of her paternal uncles donated the building where the Italian Jewish Centre is today located. In 1931, she enrolled in the Arts and Philosophy faculty of Rome’s “La Sapienza” university, specializing in Semitic languages. One of her professors there, the noted Biblical scholar Umberto Cassuto, was impressed by her passion and her intelligence, and recommended that she pursue studies at the Italian rabbinical college, as an auditor—thus becoming the first woman to study there (she also served as the rabbinical college’s librarian). Later in her life, Lea would say that much of her passion for dialogue came from seeds sown during her years at the rabbinic college.

  • Wissenschaft Des Judentums and the Study of Religion in Italy (1890S–1930S)
    CHAPTER 6 Living in Exile: Wissenschaft des Judentums and the Study of Religion in Italy (1890s–1930s) Cristiana Facchini Recent scholarship on the Wisseschaft des Judentums has turned its atten- tion to national contexts outside of the German one, where the scientific inquiry of Judaism was deeply rooted.1 The Italian case, on which this chapter focuses, is particularly interesting, as it stands both at the center and at the periphery of this intellectual endeavor, and it therefore presents 1 For a general outline see Paul Mendes-Flohr and Jehuda Reinharz, The Jew in the Modern World: A Documentary History, 3rd edition (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2010); Ismar Schorch, From Text to Context: The Turn to History in Modern Judaism (Hanover, NH: Brandeis University Press, 1994).

  • The Parable of the Tares and Matthew's Stratagy Vis-A-Vis Extreme Sectarian Impulses from Within His Community
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Andrews University Andrews University Seminary Studies, Vol. 47, No. 2, 181-202. Copyright © 2009 Andrews University Press. THE PARABLE OF THE TARES AND MATTHEW’S STRATEGY VIS-À-VIS EXTREME SECTARIAN IMPULSES FROM WITHIN HIS COMMUNITY LUCA MARU ll I Campus Adventiste du Salève Collonges-sous-Salève, France Opinions on the sociohistorical location of the author of the first Gospel and its intended readers with respect to Judaism are many and varying. A classical way to develop a taxonomy of these diverse opinions is to divide them into three categories:1 1. Matthew was written for a Gentile community that had ceased debating with Judaism; 2. It was written for a Jewish-Christian community that had recently severed ties with the synagogue and was dialectically debating with Judaism; 3. It was written between 70 and 85 C.E. for a Jewish-Christian audience that still considered themselves a part of Judaism. Although none of the above solutions overcomes all the raised difficulties, I favor in this article an understanding of the Matthean community as still dealing with fundamental questions of Jewish identity. As Anthony Saldarini writes: the [first] gospel is in a real sense a Jewish document, written within what the author and his opponents understood as Judaism. They were debating the shape of Judaism and forging competing identities in contrast to one another. But they did this within the Jewish tradition, in Jewish categories, concerning Jewish questions. 2 1Richard E.

MARTIN LUTHER: "BY FAITH ALONE." By Willem J. Kooiman, translated by Bertram Lee 'Y/oo1£. London: Lutterworth Press, 1954. 218 pages. $2.52. The translation of Dr. Kooiman's popular work, Maarten Luther, Doctor der Heilige Semift, into German was so well received that this translation is now offered to the English-speaking world with some revisions and additions by the author to bring it up to date. The style is simple, direct, and to the point. Though occasionally one may note that the present edition is a translation, it is unusually fluent and readable. The author shows good judgment in the selection of ma­ terials and ~ degree of fad objectivity aluation of Luther and his contemporaries. DL vr:ooiman wrote this biography of MJ.illn Luther with the laIty of his parish in mind. Content and style are geared to the needs of the general reader rather than to those of the specialist. Our pastors will find it a good popular book to recommend to Sunday school teachers and lay workers in the congregation. However, both they and their parish school teachers will .find it useful in the preparation of addresses or topics in the area of the Lutheran Reformation.

Tragedies inspired by his death began to surface due to the efforts of the Society of Jesus, the religious order that used him to embody its theological and rhetorical agendas. This dissertation investigates the figure of San Hermenegildo as a stage character in the period comprised between 1590 and 1690. Specifically, it looks at five tragedies, two Spanish, two Italian, and one Mexican, to demonstrate how the treatment of the martyr varied widely according to geo- political and rhetorical necessities. The subtle balance between the evident consistency of the Hermenegildo theatrical trope and the many differences traceable in the individual plays illuminates the powerful ideologies and the propagandistic objectives that Jesuit theatre came to embody during the Baroque era, as well as the struggle for power happening within and without the Society of Jesus.
