The Mystic ArkHugh of Saint Victor, Art, and Thought in the Twelfth CenturyConrad RudolphUniversity of California, Riverside

Conrad Rudolph studies and reconstructs Hugh of Saint Victor’s forty-two-page written work, The Mystic Ark (c.1125–30), which describes the medieval painting of the same name. Almost completely ignored by art historians because of the immense diffi culty of its text, The Mystic Ark is among the most unusual sources we have for an understanding of medieval artistic culture.2014 253 x 177 mm 662pp 49 b/w illus. 29 colour illus. 978-1-107-03705-2 Hardback US$120.00Publication May 2014

Vision, Devotion, and Self-Representation in Late Medieval ArtAlexa SandUtah State University

This book focuses on one of the most attractive features of late medieval manuscript illumination: the portrait of the book owner at prayer within the pages of her prayer-book. Offering a direct view into the lives of medieval individuals, these are religiously loaded images that strike at the very core of medieval Christian concerns about salvation and the effi cacy of prayer.2014 253 x 177 mm 436pp 95 b/w illus. 7 colour illus. 978-1-107-03222-4 Hardback US$99.00Publication March 2014

Augustine and the TrinityLewis AyresUniversity of Durham

This new treatment of Augustine of Hippo’s theology of the Trinity defends one of the most infl uential fi gures in western religious thought against the long-held assumption that he over-emphasized the unity of God. Culminating recent research, Ayres argues that Augustine actually offered

one of the most sophisticated early Trinitarian theologies.

The Emergence of Eternal LifeWilliam J. HoyeUniversity of Münster, Germany

Hoye uses the phenomenon of emergence – how higher forms of existence arise from simpler interactions – as a framework to understand and defend the concept of eternal life, and applies the work of Karl Rahner and Thomas Aquinas to questions concerning suffering and the ultimate relevance of morality.2013 228 x 152 mm 301pp978-1-107-04121-9 Hardback US$99.00


God, Sexuality, and the SelfAn Essay ‘On the Trinity’Sarah CoakleyUniversity of Cambridge

This new and creative venture in systematic theology unearths the profound relation of God, prayer and ‘sexuality’ and ends up mapping a new landscape of theological endeavour. Accessible, clear and challenging, it will be of great interest to all scholars and students of theology.

‘In the beginning was the Word … Where the Christian account of divine trinity is traced back to the Johannine correlation of God and the Logos, the third Person may be no more than a necessary postscript. In this remarkable fi rst volume of her Systematic Theology, Sarah Coakley proposes an alternative, Pauline trinitarianism in which the Holy Spirit is fundamental rather than marginal – the Spirit who ‘helps us in our weakness’ by redirecting human desire towards God. From this starting point, the argument opens out to incorporate patristic traditions of ascetic spirituality and contemplation, the trinity as represented in the visual arts, and fi eldwork in a modern charismatic church. The book is an extraordinary

achievement, lucid and nuanced yet passionate and provocative in its plea for a reintegrated theology.’Francis Watson, Chair of Biblical Interpretation, Durham University

Medieval Trinitarian Thought from Aquinas to OckhamRussell L. FriedmanKatholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium

How can the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit be distinct and yet identical? Russell L. Friedman provides the fi rst survey of 100 years of scholastic discussion between Thomas Aquinas’ earliest works and William Ockham’s death, with focused studies of many of the time’s most important theologians.

Review of the hardback:‘This brilliant book uncovers a key phase in the history of Trinitarian doctrine, from ca. 1250 to 1350. It discusses a number of thinkers whose works have remained largely unknown outside of a small group of specialists, and in doing so dispels the view that there was no signifi cant Trinitarian development after Bonaventure, Aquinas and Duns Scotus. Friedman combines outstanding scholarly knowledge of primary texts with utmost readability, revealing the extraordinary diversity, coherence, and vitality of later-medieval theology of the Trinity. This book is a marvellous achievement, and essential reading for anybody who has an interest in Trinitarian theology.’Rik Van Nieuwenhove, University of Limerick

Kierkegaard and the Problem of Self-LoveJohn LippittUniversity of Hertfordshire

This book shows the relevance of a Kierkegaard-inspired account of what it means to love oneself properly to such topics as friendship, romantic love, trust, forgiveness and pride. It will be of interest to scholars and students of Kierkegaard and those interested in philosophical and theological ethics and moral psychology.

‘This is the most important book on Kierkegaard and love to appear since Jamie Ferreira’s classic Love’s Grateful Striving; in particular, it offers the most detailed treatment available on the notion of proper self-love in Works of Love. This work also brings Kierkegaard directly into current debates in moral psychology regarding love for particular others such as family and friends, and their relation to forms of self-love. The discussions of forgiveness, including self-forgiveness and self-respect, are especially rewarding. Lippitt writes clearly and his analyses will be accessible to readers without a prior speciality in Kierkegaard, including anyone interested in theories of love and various forms of love in their own right – and especially in theological contexts.’John J.

God’s PresenceA Contemporary Recapitulation of Early ChristianityFrances YoungUniversity of Birmingham

Young offers a systematic theology with contemporary coherence, a method that engages in conversation with the fathers of the church and explores how their teachings can be applied today, despite the differences in our intellectual and ecclesial environments. The book covers key topics including Creation, Christology, soteriology, ecclesiology and Mariology.

‘No-one but Frances Young could have written a book like this. It combines an immense professional expertise in the literature of early Christianity with intense personal and pastoral refl ection, an insightful perspective on contemporary theological concerns and an interweaving of sermons and poetic meditations that remind us of Frances’s stature as a spiritual guide. It is a book of exceptional human maturity as well as intellectual challenge. Frances Young has always combined these elements in a rare way, but this book is a summation of all that has been most fruitful and nourishing in both her academic and her pastoral ministry. It is a treasury of real wisdom, authoritative and vulnerable.’Rowan Williams, University of Cambridge, and Former Archbishop of Canterbury

Remembering Constantine at the Milvian BridgeRaymond Van DamUniversity of Michigan, Ann Arbor

Throughout late antiquity and the medieval period, memories of Constantine’s victory in 312 at the battle of the Milvian Bridge served as a powerful paradigm for understanding rulership in a Christian society. This book examines the creation and dissemination

of legends about that battle and its signifi cance.

‘Van Dam uses contemporary memory theory to arrive at a new interpretation of an age-old problem. Constantine’s conversion and victory are explored through a polyptych of interpretive approaches that portray this perennially important fi gure in a new light.’Noel Lenski, University of Colorado

This book shows how anxieties about Christianity’s fate in the urban world made cities from Jerusalem to Rome contested models for the role of Christianity in modern culture.2013 247 x 174 mm 372pp 42 b/w illus. 978-1-107-00424-5 Hardback US$99.00


Between Court and ConfessionalThe Politics of Spanish InquisitorsKimberly LynnWestern Washington University

Between Court and Confessional explores the lives of Spanish inquisitors, closely examining the careers and writings of fi ve sixteenth- and seventeenth-century inquisitors. Kimberly Lynn probes the lives of individual inquisitors to explain how the theory and regulations of the Inquisition were rooted in local conditions, particular disputes and individual experiences.

‘The Inquisitor is a fi gure engulfed in myth, yet about whom very little is actually known. Kimberly Lynn sets the record straight in this thoroughly researched and well-written book. Showcasing individual portraits of fi ve inquisitors from different parts of the early modern Hispanic empire, she offers a lively and convincing composite biography of a unique – and uniquely complex – fi gure poised between medieval theocracy and modern bureaucracy.’James S.

The Anonymous Sayings of the Desert FathersA Select Edition and Complete English TranslationEdited and translated by John WortleyUniversity of Manitoba, Canada

The Tales and Sayings of the Desert Fathers (Apophthegmata Patrum) are a key source of evidence for the practice and theory respectively of eremitic monasticism, a signifi cant phenomenon within the early history of Christianity. The publication of this book fi nally ensures the availability of all three major collections which constitute the

work, edited and translated into English. Richer in Tales than the ‘Alphabetic’ collection to which this is an appendix (both to be dated c.AD 500), the ‘Anonymous’ collection presented in this volume furnishes almost as much material for the study of the late antique world from which the monk sought to escape as it does for the monastic endeavour itself. More material continued to be added well into the seventh century and so the spread and gradual evolution of monasticism are illustrated here over a period of about two and a half centuries.2013 228 x 152 mm 658pp978-0-521-50988-6 Hardback US$145.00

An Ancient Commentary on the Book of RevelationA Critical Edition of the Scholia in ApocalypsinEdited and translated by P. TzamalikosAristotle University, Thessaloniki

This is a new critical edition, with translation and commentary, of the Scholia in Apocalypsin, which were falsely attributed to Origen a century ago. They include extensive sections from Didymus the Blind’s lost Commentary on the Apocalypse (fourth century) and therefore counter the current belief that Oecumenius’ commentary (sixth century) was the most ancient. Professor Tzamalikos argues that their author was in fact Cassian the Sabaite, an erudite monk and abbot at the monastery of Sabas, the Great Laura, in Palestine. He was different from the alleged Latin author John Cassian, placed a century or so before the real Cassian. The Scholia attest to the tension between the imperial Christian orthodoxy of the sixth century and certain monastic circles, who drew freely on Hellenic ideas and on alleged ‘heretics’. They show that, during that period, Hellenism was a vigorous force inspiring not only pagan intellectuals, but also infl uential Christian quarters.2013 276 x 219 mm 484pp978-1-107-02694-0 Hardback US$200.00

The New Cambridge History of the BibleFrom the Beginnings to 600Edited by James Carleton PagetUniversity of Cambridge

and Joachim SchaperUniversity of Aberdeen

Recent years have witnessed signifi cant discoveries of texts and artefacts relevant to the study of the Old and New Testaments and remarkable shifts in scholarly methods of study. The present volume mirrors the increasing

specialization of Old Testament studies, including the Hebrew and Greek Bibles, and refl ects rich research activity that has unfolded over the last four decades in Pentateuch theory, Septuagint scholarship, Qumran studies and early Jewish exegesis of biblical texts. The second half of the volume discusses the period running from the New Testament to 600, including chapters on the Coptic, Syriac and Latin bibles, the ‘Gnostic’ use of the scriptures, pagan engagement with the Bible, the use of the Bible in Christian councils and in popular and non-literary culture. A fascinating in-depth account of the reception of the Bible in the earliest period of its history.Contributors: Geoffrey Khan, Jan Joosten, William Schniedewind, Larry Hurtado, Chris Keith, Eugene Ulrich, Joachim Schaper, John Barton, John J.

Scripture and Law in the Dead Sea ScrollsAlex P. JassenNew York University

This book examines the interpretation of biblical law in the Dead Sea Scrolls and ancient Judaism. It analyzes the interpretive techniques found in the Dead Sea Scrolls to transform the meaning and application of biblical law to meet the needs of new historical and cultural settings.

‘In this book, Alex P. Jassen, joins two lines of inquiry that are commonly pursued independently of one another: the scriptural hermeneutics of the Dead Sea Scrolls and their legal contents. Previous studies of scriptural interpretation in the Dead Sea Scrolls have tended to focus on the nonlegal, narrative, hortatory, liturgical, and eschatalogical texts, while those on the legal contents of the scrolls have sought to uncover the sect’s practices, polemics against other groups, or the larger history of ancient Jewish law. While there have been several important recent studies that combine interests in Qumran (the site of the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls) law and scriptural exegesis, none has been as comprehensive and as systematic as is Jassen’s. This book offers high-quality scholarship on an important and timely topic.’Steven D. Fraade, Mark Taper Professor of the History of Judaism, Yale University

The Shari’a and Islamic Criminal Justice in Time of War and PeaceM. Cherif BassiouniDePaul University School of Law

This innovative and important book applies classical Sunni Muslim legal and religious doctrine to contemporary issues surrounding armed confl ict. In doing so it shows that the shari’a and Islamic law are not only compatible with contemporary international human rights law and international humanitarian law norms, but are appropriate for use in Muslim societies.

‘Cherif Bassiouni makes the compelling case that international human rights law and international humanitarian law are part of the ‘fi rmament of Islam’; that socioeconomic and educational problems in the Muslim world – not religion and certainly not Islam itself – account for political violence in the name of Islam … [He] argues, with clarity and eloquence that will appeal to scholars and lay readers alike, that Muslim societies can and must develop institutions and mechanisms … to bring to justice those who have committed crimes of political violence under shari’a and Islamic law. This is a courageous and brilliantly reasoned attempt to pry open the gates of rational interpretation closed to Muslims for nearly a millennium. Muslims and non-Muslims alike … will be struck by the scope and sheer ambition of his undertaking …’Ambassador Frederic C. Hof, Atlantic Council, Rafi k Hariri Center for the Middle East

Beyond Church and StateDemocracy, Secularism, and ConversionMatthew SchererGeorge Mason University, Virginia

Secularism is often imagined in Jefferson’s words as ‘a wall of separation between Church and State’. Scherer argues secularism is a process of conversion that reshapes religion and politics. He presents a picture of what secularism is and how it can be reimagined to be more conducive to genuine democracy.

‘A brilliant contribution to the study of secularity, offering a new perspective on what has become a tired debate about political-religious separation. In inviting readers to rethink secularism as a ‘religious’ conversion – as rooted in the past and yet ruptured from it – Matthew Scherer has written a thought-provoking book of great originality. Beyond Church and State is essential reading for anyone who wishes to engage in serious public discussion on the topic.’Talal Asad, City University of New York, and author of Formations of the Secular

Reid’s book recovers the stories of medieval men and women who were renowned not only for their intellectual prowess but also for their devotional piety, uncovering previously unseen trends in voluntary religious practice.Cambridge Studies in Islamic Civilization



Human Rights under State-Enforced Religious Family Laws in Israel, Egypt and IndiaYüksel SezginSyracuse University, New York

Yüksel Sezgin looks at the impact of state-enforced religious family laws on human rights in Israel, Egypt and India, identifi es the various resistance strategies which rights activists have successfully mobilized in these jurisdictions and makes proposals for the integration of universal human rights principles into religious legal systems.

‘This is an intelligent, engaging, and conscientious comparative study of personal-status laws and their application in three postcolonial, post-WWII states: Israel, post-revolution Egypt, and post-independence India. The book shows convincingly how consistently some human rights, especially those of women, have been compromised or denied utterly in all three states, each of which has in various ways ceded control over personal-status issues such as marriage and divorce to its various religious communities and their leaders. The similarities as well as differences of the resulting situations in these three countries are remarkable, and Sezgin does a masterly, even-handed job of presenting both in a most accessible fashion; his thoughtful work even

offers human-rights advocates sound and practical advice on possible lessons to be drawn from what has worked and what has not in gaining more adequate justice or even reform in these three states.’William A. Graham, Harvard University
