Till now, the English~speaking student of Hebrew has had to rely on expensive and complex large~scale lexicons or pocket~size glossaries that make no pretense of keeping abreast of current scholarship. The present work thus fills a long felt need. Though little more than one~third the bulk of the Brown~Driver~Briggs or the larger Koehler~Baumgartner lexicons, it offers everything the student needs to translate an Old Testament passage. It is a composite work: the first third based on the third edition of the Koehler~Baumgartner lexicon, revised by Baumgartner alone (German edition, first fascicle 1967); the second third on Baumgartner's own manuscript (as far as it was completed up to the time of his death) for the second fascicle of the German edition, as yet unpublished; and the final portion a revision of the English material in the Koehler~Baumgartner first and second editions (published in 1953 and 1958). Holladay's lexicon has been made concise by the omission of bibliographical references, information about cognate languages, and other material intended for the specialist, as well as by a judicious trimming of the biblical citations, always with an eye to the needs of the student of biblical Hebrew. The result, in the words of William Sanford LaSor, is "a useful tool for students of the Hebrew language . carefully done and beautifully printed.".…

Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. Cloth boards. From the series STUDIES IN THE HISTORY OF RELIGIONS, volume LXXX. "This volume explores the ways in which religion became the o bject of scientific research in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most obvious is the development of an increasing autonomous science of religion (with founding fathers like Max Muller and C. P. Tiele) . However, with anthropology (Tylor, Frazer) , sociology (Durkheim, Max Weber) , and psychology (William James) , relgion also came to be seen as a separate entity to be studied comparatively . To capture this wide field this book focuses on the emergence of the discourse on religion in a broad academic context, among different disciplines. The emphasis is on general socio-historical devel opments, rather than on individual biographies. Part One deals with the institutionalization of science of religion in France, Britain, and the Netherlands. Part Two focuses on boundary disputes betwe en the emerging 'sciences of religion'. Part Three examines new conceptualizations of religion underlying the new endeavour ('ritual', 'magic', 'survival') . Religion - philosophy - history - 19th century - 20th century. Emile Burnouf. Adolph Moses. Eliza Sunderland. ; 8vo; 318 pp.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - For far too many people for far too many years, schooling has been a debilitating, demoralizing, and ultimately dehumanizing experience. Make-shift, half-hearted, and watered-down reform measures have proved ineffective. Reform throws out the bath water, but keeps the baby. Radicalism recognizes not a baby but a beast lurks in the bath water and throws both out. This dramatic redefinition of schooling examines four models of dynamism as provided by Nietzsche, Whitehead, Dewey, and Freire. Nietzsche's af-firmation of dynamism is marred by his elitism. Whitehead understands that inert cripple schooling. Without dialogue, ideas remain inert. Dewey misunderstands thinking and does not grasp its inherent double movement: toward order and disorder. Freire's pedagogy is transcended, with emphasis on negotiation between prime values. The final chapter expounds a radical pedagogy of dynamism. Miller argues that teaching and learning are not separate acts, but form a continuum. Within the teaching-learning continuum, all participants are spontaneous and receptive and seek to overcome fear of process, ambiguity, and doubt. The key to radical schooling is a pro-active stance toward creativity that allows for a dynamic integration of difference in dialogue. Negotiating Toward Truth is a call to arms for all educators. The book asks us to look closely what is in the bath water and to have the courage to throw the beast out with the bath water.…

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. xii, 138 pp, 1 leaf (ads). Original cloth. Near Fine, without dust jacket (as issued). Monographs of the Peshitta Institute Leiden, Vol. 9. New price: US$130.00. 'This volume strives to uncover the sources utilized by Jacob of Edessa in his Syriac revision of the biblical books of Samuel around 705 CE. Noting that a colophon states that these sources derived from both the Syrians and the Greeks, the first part of the book deals with the relationship of the Peshitta, the Syro-Hexapla and Greek (Septuagint) texts in Jacob's manuscript. This leads naturally into the heart of the volume which is a careful examination of the relative presence of the major Greek textual families within the manuscript. A final section treats the extent and nature of readings outside the major Syriac and Greek traditions. The findings should be of particular interest to scholars working in Old Testament textual criticism and Syriac literature' (Brill Web site).…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Warfare and wealth were the major means for acquiring status in precolonial Minahasa (North Sulawesi). The author argues that the quest for power and prestige is an ongoing concern among Minahasans.Based on extensive anthropological and historical research, this book focuses on patterns and processes of social mobility. The character of leadership in tribal society, then under the colonial bureaucracy, and later in modern Indonesia are discussed. Besides political changes, changes in economic conditions and in religion have had a considerable influence on mobility. These processes are illustrated by a case study of a local community.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Beneath the Volcano is the first major account of the Nage, who inhabit the central part of Flores in eastern Indonesia.The book focuses on Nage ideas concerning a variety of spiritual beings and how these influence both ritual practices and ideas about human beings. In exploring these subjects, the author sets out to uncover a classification of spirits. While quite different from taxonomies of natural beings, Nage ways of linking named categories of spirits nevertheless reveal a regular conceptual order. In describing this order, use is made of a version of Dumont's notion of 'encompassment'. Common ideas informing relations between Nage humans and several categories of spirits are further interpreted as instances of a pervasive principle of 'symmetric inversion', according to which human beings are spirits for the spirits.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Too much of what has so far passed for the 'historical background' to Indonesia's environmental problems has consisted of little more than thinly disguised backward projections of modern trends. The writers in this volume report on their own pioneer journeys into the paper landscapes of the colonial literature and archives in search of the real environmental history of Indonesia.…
