John V. Taylor was a missionary statesman, ecumenist, Africanist, onetime General Secretary of the Church Missionary Society, and later Anglican Bishop of Winchester. His work offers a theology and practice of Christian mission which is faithful to scripture while fully facing the facts of the contemporary world at the beginning of the third millennium. Does Christian evangelism promote sectarianism and violence, or can it contribute to harmony and peace in the global village? Can Christians extol the true significance of Jesus Christ without demeaning others? Who is God and how does God's nature shape ours? This book tackles these and other vital issues by giving the first major account of the life and thought of one of the 20th century's greatest religious thinkers. Here is an example and tutor to any thoughtful Christian. Consistently incarnational and sacramental in his approach, Taylor seeks to live out the truths he discovers in his daily ministry as poet, priest and prophet - inviting those around him to share the way of Christ. Taylor is also author of major works such as "The Go-Between God", his book on the Holy Spirit, and "The Christlike God", where he outlines the distinctive Christian insight into God as the patient, generous, self-sacrificing love we see in Jesus.

This 1952 book is an inquiry into the relations in origin between literature and inspiration, based on a study of the practices of seers in modern communities where oral literature sill survives, and of the records of primitive poetry in the West and North. Mrs Chadwick discusses the universal reverence accorded to poets, musicians, seers, or prophets, the training they underwent, the methods of ecstasy, and the remarkable similarities of their messages in remote and different parts of the world.

Gustav Landauer--literary critic, mystical philosopher, and left-wing activists--was Germany's major anarchist thinker at the beginning of the twentieth century. In this full-scale intellectual biography, Lunn depicts the evolution of Landauer's social thought, a rich terrain within which to examine afresh some intellectual crosscurrents of the Wilhelmian era. Landauer's work in the various circles and movements of his social milieu after 1900, including anarchist, youth movement, expressionist, and Zionist groups, reveal a convergence of volkisch and communitarian ideas with libertarian forms of socialist democracy. The study of this kind of "romantic socialism," in revolt against both industrial modernity and authoritarian government, highlights the inadequacy of viewing volkisch themes exclusively in terms of Nazi "roots." What emerges from this study is the appeal of antiauthoritarian and communitarian ideas for middle-class Left intellectuals dissatisfied with the official Social Democratic Party. In the light of the tragic failures of democratic and socialist forces to gain middle-class support during the Weimar Republic, and of the Nazis' antidemocratic uses of Gemeinschaft, this earlier search for a communitarian democracy gains in importance. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1973.

Since at least the 19th century Hebrew Bible scholarship has traditionally seen priests and prophets as natural opponents, with different social spheres and worldviews. In recent years several studies have started to question this perspective. The Priests in the Prophets examines how the priests are portrayed in the Latter Prophets and analyzes the relationship between priests and prophets. The contributors also provide insights into the place of priests, prophets, and some other religious specialists in Israelite and Judean society in pre-exilic and post-exilic times.

The volume before us is a series of lectures delivered on the Bohlen Foundation by Rev. Dr. Rogers, a Rector of the Episcopal Church. This is in line with the progressive history of English Literature, as it has so often found its ablest exponents in the ranks of the clergy, as seen in Chalmers, Whately, Maurice, Stanley, Trench, Sprague, Channing, and others, the special studies of the Christian minister leading him so often into the related province of literary production. The sub-title of the volume is "Studies in Isaiah and Browning", the object being to institute a comparison between them, as prophet and poet. Of the nine chapters of the book, the first one- "The Common Ground of Poetry and Religion" may be said to lay the basis and set the form for all that follows. In such books as Santayana's "Poetry and Religion", Selkirk's "Ethics and Aesthetics of Modern Poetry", Brooke's "Theology of the English Poets", Shairp's "Culture and Religion", Scudders "Life of the Spirit in Modern English Letters" and Wilson's "Theology of Modern Literature" we have this fruitful theme, for as the author remarks-"It is impossible to say the last word about either of them", poetry being "the expression of man's highest thought" and religion "the satisfaction of his deepest need". However different, therefore, their spheres may be, they "cannot be kept apart." In chapters II, III, and IV, the author develops in full the sub-title of his work. In the first-"Isaiah Among the Prophets", he institutes a suggestive comparison between the mission of other prophets, such as Moses, Jeremiah and Hosea, and that of Isaiah, with his "passion for righteousness and contempt for half-way measures", "the most representative of them all". In the following chapter "Browning Among the Poets", he views him as contrasted with other great English poets-with Shakespeare and Wordsworth and Matthew Arnold and Tennyson, insisting that Browning, while net necessarily the greatest of our poets, has a message for all those "who are stirred by the thousand questions that give to life its interest." In chapter IV, "Isaiah and Browning", we have the specific study of these two world-authors as representing Prophecy and Poetry, wherein it is suggested that they were alike marked by intensity of spirit, by clearness, breadth and penetration of vision, by the same "enthusiasm of living, the same vigorous utterance and instinct of catholicity". In the five chapters that follow, these comparisons are continued. As Isaiah showed how Assyria was used by God to punish a sinful people, so Browning showed "how evil may be forced to do the work of good, in its own despite". As Isaiah taught how in the face of all chastisements "A Remnant shall Return", so Browning taught that under the direst conditions, something of good will be found to exist and survive. To the prophet and poet alike "The Meaning of the Future" was significant, so full of possibility and promise to those who viewed it aright. To each of them "The Force of Personality", divine and human, appealed, the "Besetting God", as he phrases it; in his closing chapter, being "a Dweller and Worker in his own world". Such, in barest outline, are the content, method and motive of a very interesting volume, one which we cordially commend to every student of Biblical and secular literature as a solid contribution to the subject discussed. Fresh and suggestive in its conceptions, extremely rich and pertinent in its concrete illustrations from scripture and the poets, guarded, in the main, from what might easily become extreme and forced comparisons, it presents in a vital manner these two great exponents of their respective generations and seeks to show that, though centuries apart and with vocations widely different, they were working on "common ground" and toward the same great moral ends.... -Princeton Theological Review, Volume 8 [1910]
