    This volume begins with the Renaissance and ends with Jansenism, covering- from the middle of the fifteenth to the middle of the seventeenth century. It takes in the great schools of spirituality of French Schools.

    With the exception of the Salesian School, the others are divided between the great Catholic nations which filled the political stage of Europe during that period : Spain, Italy, and France. 

    Indeed, the principle of nationality asserted itself in a very remarkable way, especially from the time of the Renaissance. This tendency of each nation to converge upon the lines of its own genius and language and religion reacted upon every manifestation of its life, and therefore upon its spirituality. Hence we actually find in recent times a Spanish spirituality, an Italian spirituality, and a French spirituality, a spirituality which is fundamentally one and the same so far as it is Catholic, but differs in the way in which it is conceived and presented.

    Therefore the schools of spirituality of the later period no longer appear simply as belonging to religious families, as in the Middle Ages, but as those of nations. In each school, no doubt, the various religious orders keep their peculiar characteristics ; but they owe much to the national bent and interests and to the special currents of doctrine distinctive of each country. Thus the spirituality of Spanish writers cannot be thoroughly understood without some knowledge of the truceless and merciless war waged by the Spanish Inquisition during the sixteenth century against Protestant heresy and false mysticism. The Inquisition reacted strongly upon Spanish spirituality by enlisting it on behalf of its own interests, and thus was realised the unity of the Spanish School.

        The Archaeology of the Bible

        E£365.00

        Does this have anything to do with the Bible, the book that has profoundly influenced Western culture? Is there archaeological evidence that bears on the Bible? Are the narratives of the Bible, especially those from 3,000 and more years ago, myth or history? Is a scientific discipline like archaeology even compatible with an obviously religious book like the Bible? These are relevant questions that this book will seek to answer.’

              Letters and Papers from Prison
              Dietrich Bonhoeffer

              Letters and Papers from Prison

              E£170.00

              Dietrich Bonhoeffer was a young German pastor who was executed by the Nazis in 1945 for his part in the “officers’ plot” to assassinate Adolf Hitler. 

              This expanded version of Letters and Papers from Prison shifts the emphasis of earlier editions of Bonhoeffer’s theological eflections to the private sphere of his life. His letters appear in greater detail and show his daily concerns. Letters from Bonhoeffer’s parents, siblings, and other relatives have also been added, in addition to previously inaccessible letters and legal papers referring to his trial.

                Transforming Spirituality: Integrating Theology and Psychology

                E£240.00

                In this collaborative work the authors closely explore the growing academic and cultural interest in spirituality and spiritual transformation. They argue that "we are witnessing a new horizon of converging interest in the intersections between science, religion, and spirituality." Organized in three parts--transforming spirituality in psychology, transforming spirituality in theology, and modeling spiritual transformation--Transforming Spirituality fills a void in the current literature. In turn, its nine chapters discuss spirituality in relation to health, human development, the biblical tradition, philosophy, and the natural sciences.

                    Life Together and Prayer in the Bible
                    Dietrich Bonhoeffer

                    Life Together and Prayer in the Bible

                    E£170.00

                    Dietrich Bonhoeffer, one of the most influential Christian martyrs in history, bequeathed to humanity a legacy of theological creativity and spirituality that continues to intrigue people from a variety of backgrounds. Dietrich Bonhoeffer Works, a sixteen volume series, offers a fresh, critical translation of Bonhoeffer's writings, with introductions, annotations, and interpretations.

                    The stimulus for the writing of Life Together was the closing of the preacher's seminary at Finkenwalde. The treatise contains Bonhoeffer's thoughts about the nature of Christian community based on the common life that he and his seminarians experienced at the seminary and in the "Brother's House" there. Bonhoeffer completed the writing of Life Together in 1938.

                      Works of Love
                      Søren Kierkegaard

                      Works of Love

                      E£325.00

                      Works of Love is, perhaps, the greatest single piece of literature written in the history of humankind. Astonishingly, it has been greatly ignored by philosophers, laymen, and theologians alike. Unlike its predecessors Works of Love has largely remained unknown in the Western world. In an attempt to introduce my parents to this masterpiece, I discovered that the Russians had not even bothered to produce a translation to this very day! Reading recent reviews written by modern readers—a bare dozen or so—I recognized in their writings precisely how I felt about the book: mesmerized and changed. Most reviewers were both disturbed by the fact that such a life-altering book could have been given a cold shoulder, lasting a swiftly-approaching two centuries.
