Married To A Bedouin
by Marguerite van Geldermalsen'"Where you staying?" the Bedouin asked. "Why you not stay with me tonight - in my cave?"' Thus begins Marguerite van Geldermalsen's story of how a New Zealand-born nurse came to be married to Mohammad Abdallah Othman, a Bedouin souvenir-seller from the ancient city of Petra in Jordan. It was 1978 and she and a friend were travelling through the Middle East when Marguerite met the charismatic Mohammad who convinced her that he was the man for her.A life with Mohammad meant moving into his ancient cave and learning to love the regular tasks of baking shrak bread on an open fire and collecting water from the spring. And as Marguerite feels herself becoming part of the Bedouin community, she is thankful for the twist in fate that has led her to this contented life. Marguerite's light-hearted and guileless observations of the people she comes to love are as heart-warming as they are valuable, charting Bedouin traditions now lost to the modern world.

Martin Buber: A Life of Faith and Dissent (Jewish Lives #83)
by Paul Mendes-FlohrThe first major biography in English in over thirty years of the seminal modern Jewish thinker Martin Buber An authority on the twentieth†‘century philosopher Martin Buber (1878–1965), Paul Mendes-Flohr offers the first major biography in English in thirty years of this seminal modern Jewish thinker. The book is organized around several key moments, such as his sudden abandonment by his mother when he was a child of three, a foundational trauma that, Mendes-Flohr shows, left an enduring mark on Buber’s inner life, attuning him to the fragility of human relations and the need to nurture them with what he would call a “dialogical attentiveness.” Buber’s philosophical and theological writings, most famously I and Thou, made significant contributions to religious and Jewish thought, philosophical anthropology, biblical studies, political theory, and Zionism. In this accessible new biography, Mendes-Flohr situates Buber’s life and legacy in the intellectual and cultural life of German Jewry as well as in the broader European intellectual life of the first half of the twentieth century.
The Martin Buber Reader: Essential Writings
by A. BiemannMartin Buber was professor of the history of religions and Jewish religion & ethics from 1923 to 1933 at the University of Frankfurt. He resigned in 1933, after Hitler came to power, and immigrated to Israel where he taught at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Buber wrote numerous books during his lifetime (1878-1965) and is best known for I and Thou and Good and Evil. His philosophy of dialogue-that is, the 'I-Thou' relationship which affirms each individual as being of unique value-is extremely well-known and has influenced important Protestant theologians like Karl Barth, Emil Brunner, Paul Tillich, and Reinhold Niebuhr. There is truly no genuine understanding of contemporary Jewish and Christian theology without reference to Martin Buber. His appeal is vast - not only is he renowned for his translations of the Old Testament but also for his interpretation of Hasidism, his role in Zionism, and his writings in both psychotherapy and political philosophy.
Martin Buber's I and Thou (The Macat Library)
by Simon RavenscroftMartin Buber’s I and Thou argues that humans engage with the world in two ways. One is with the attitude of an ‘I’ towards an ‘It’, where the self stands apart from objects as items of experience or use. The other is with the attitude of an ‘I’ towards a ‘Thou’, where the self enters into real relation with other people, or nature, or God. Addressing modern technological society, Buber claims that while the ‘I-It’ attitude is necessary for existence, human life finds its meaning in personal relationships of the ‘I-Thou’ sort. I and Thou is Buber’s masterpiece, the basis of his religious philosophy of dialogue, and among the most influential studies of the human condition in the 20th century.

Martin Bucers Beziehungen zu den Niederlanden (Kerkhistorische Studien #9)
by Willem Frederik DankbaarVon den grossen Reformatoren hat sich, ausser Calvin, nament lich Martin Bucer für die Niederlande interessiert und hier, wenn auch meistens auf indirekten Wege, einen gewissen Einfluss auf die Reformation ausgeübt. Der Umstand, dass seine Briefe zum Teil überhaupt noch nicht und zum Teil an verschiedenen Orten herausgegeben sind - eine vollständige Ausgabe wird vorbereitet, dürfte aber noch geraume Zeit auf sich warten lassen - bedeutete eine erhebliche Schwierig keit für unsere Untersuchung. Wir haben in seinen Briefen soviel wie möglich untersucht, was sich auf unseren Gegenstand bezieht; vielleicht kommt später noch mehr ans Licht. Einerseits enttäuschte es, feststellen zu müssen, dass von den zwei Besuchen, die Bucer in seinen jungen Jahren den Nieder landen abgestattet hat, sehr wenig bekannt geworden ist und dass bisher keine Korrespondenz mit Personen in diesem Lande selbst zum Vorschein kam. Anderseits geben seine Beziehungen zu Hol ländern im Ausland und seine Korrespondenz mit anderen genügend Aufschluss, um sich ein Bild zu machen von Bucers regem Interesse für und seine Bemühungen um Einflussnahme auf die Vorgänge in unserem Lande. Sein späteres Verhältnis zu Erasmus - mit Ausnahme der Sache Geldenhauer - und seine Polemiken mit Latomus und Pighius haben wir ausser Betracht gelassen, weil diese Männer sich damals schon zu lange im Ausland aufhielten und die Auseinandersetzung ausschliesslich theologischer Natur war, so dass es sich hier nicht um eine spezifisch niederländische Beziehung handelt.
Martin Bucer's Doctrine of Justification: Reformation Theology and Early Modern Irenicism (Oxford Studies in Historical Theology)
by Brian LugioyoMartin Bucer has usually been portrayed as a diplomat who attempted to reconcile divergent theological views, sometimes at any cost, or as a pragmatic pastor who was more concerned with ethics than theology. These representations have led to the view that Bucer was a theological light-weight, rightly placed in the shadow of Luther and Calvin. This book makes a different argument. Bucer was an ecclesial diplomat and a pragmatic pastor, yet his ecclesial and practical approaches to reforming the Church were guided by coherent theological convictions. Central to his theology was his understanding of the doctrine of justification, an understanding that Brian Lugioyo argues has an integrity of its own, though it has been imprecisely represented as intentionally conciliatory. It was this solid doctrine that guided Bucer's irenicism and acted as a foundation for his entrance into discussions with Catholics between 1539 and 1541. Lugioyo demonstrates that Bucer was consistent in his approach and did not sacrifice his theological convictions for ecclesial expediency. Indeed his understanding was an accepted evangelical perspective on justification, one to be commended along with those of Luther and Calvin.

Martin del Rio: INVESTIGATIONS INTO MAGIC (Social and Cultural Values in Early Modern Europe)
by Peter Maxwell-StuartThis is the first English translation of one of the most important, interesting and comprehensive discussions of the occult sciences ever published. Investigations into magic deals not only with magic in all its forms, from the manipulation of angelic and demonic powers to straightforward conjuring and illusion, but also with witchcraft, alchemy, astrology, divination, prophecy, and possession by evil spirits. In addition, Del Rio gives judges and confessors practical advice on the most effective ways of dealing with people who are accused of practising magic, and enlivens his whole discussion with anecdotes drawn from a remarkable range of sources, including his own experience. Nothing so panoramic had ever appeared before, and for the next one hundred and fifty years Investigations into magic was the indispensable reference work on the subject.
Martin Heidegger on Technology, Ecology, and the Arts
by A. LackLack begins with a discussion of Max Weber's analysis of the disenchantment of the world and proceeds to develop Heidegger's philosophy in a way that suggests a "re-enchantment" of the world that faces the modern condition squarely, without nostalgia.
Martin Luther: Father of the Reformation and Educational Reformer (SpringerBriefs in Education)
by Mihai AndroneThis book explores specific aspects of Martin Luther’s ideas on education in general, and on religious education in particular, by comparing them to the views of other great sixteenth-century reformers: Huldrych Zwingli, John Calvin, and Philip Melanchthon. By doing so, the author highlights both the originality of the German reformer’s perspective, and the major impact of the main religious movement at the dawn of modernity on the development of public education in Western Europe. Although Martin Luther was a religious reformer par excellence, and not an educational theorist, a number of pedagogically significant ideas and ideals can be identified in his extensive theological work, which may also qualify him as an education reformer. The Protestant Reformation changed the world, bringing to the fore the relation between faith and education, and made the latter a public responsibility by proving that the spiritual enlightenment of youth, regardless of gender and social origin, is indissolubly linked to instruction in general, and especially to a more thorough understanding of the classical languages, arts, history and mathematics.
