A History of the Bible - The Book and Its Faiths
WINNER OF THE 2019 DUFF COOPER PRIZE
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
'With emotional and psychological insight, Barton unlocks this sleeping giant of our culture. In the process, he has produced a masterpiece.' Sunday Times
The Bible is the central book of Western culture. For the two faiths which hold it sacred, it is the bedrock of their religion, a singular authority on what to believe and how to live. For non-believers too, it has a commanding status: it is one of the great works of world literature, woven to an unparalleled degree into our language and thought.
This book tells the story of the Bible, explaining how it came to be constructed and how it has been understood, from its remote beginnings down to the present. John Barton describes how the narratives, laws, proverbs, prophecies, poems and letters which comprise the Bible were written and when, what we know - and what we cannot know - about their authors and what they might have meant, as well as how these extraordinarily disparate writings relate to each other. His incisive readings shed new light on even the most familiar passages, exposing not only the sources and traditions behind them, but also the busy hands of the scribes and editors who assembled and reshaped them. Untangling the process by which some texts which were regarded as holy, became canonical and were included, and others didn't, Barton demonstrates that the Bible is not the fixed text it is often perceived to be, but the result of a long and intriguing evolution.
Tracing its dissemination, translation and interpretation in Judaism and Christianity from Antiquity to the rise of modern biblical scholarship, Barton elucidates how meaning has both been drawn from the Bible and imposed upon it. Part of the book's originality is to illuminate the gap between religion and scripture, the ways in which neither maps exactly onto the other, and how religious thinkers from Augustine to Luther and Spinoza have reckoned with this. Barton shows that if we are to regard the Bible as 'authoritative', it cannot be as believers have so often done in the past.

The Husky and His White Cat Shizun: Erha He Ta De Bai Mao Shizun (Novel) Vol. 1
Also known as 2ha, the wildly popular danmei/Boys' Love novel series from China that inspired a multimedia franchise! A historical fantasy epic about a tyrant’s second chance at life and the powerful cultivation teacher he can't get out of his mind.
Cruel tyrant Taxian-jun killed his way to the throne and now reigns as the first ever emperor of the mortal realm. Yet somehow, he is unsatisfied. Left cold and bereft, abandoned by all he held dear, he takes his own life...only to be reborn anew.
Awakening in the body of his younger self--Mo Ran, a disciple of the cultivation sect Sisheng Peak--he discovers the chance to relive his life. This time, he vows to attain the gratification that once eluded him: all who defied him will fall, and never again will they treat him like a dog. His greatest fury is reserved for Chu Wanning, the coldly beautiful and aloofly catlike cultivation teacher who betrayed and thwarted Mo Ran time and again in their last life.
Yet as Mo Ran shamelessly pursues his own goals in this life he thought lost, he begins to wonder if there might be more to his teacher--and his own feelings--than he ever realized.
This Chinese fantasy (xianxia) epic built around the desire between two men (danmei) has been translated into multiple languages and inspired a multimedia franchise in China. The Seven Seas English-language edition will include exclusive, all-new covers and interior illustrations from artist St with a translation by Rynn & Jun.

The Memoirs of General P. H. Sheridan, Volume II., Part 6
The headquarters of the military department to which I was assigned when relieved from duty at New Orleans was at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and on the 5th of September I started for that post. In due time I reached St. Louis, and stopped there a day to accept an ovation tendered in approval of the course I had pursued in the Fifth Military District—a public demonstration apparently of the most sincere and hearty character.
From St. Louis to Leavenworth took but one night, and the next day I technically complied with my orders far enough to permit General Hancock to leave the department, so that he might go immediately to New Orleans if he so desired, but on account of the yellow fever epidemic then prevailing, he did not reach the city till late in November.
My new command was one of the four military departments that composed the geographical division then commanded by Lieutenant-General Sherman. This division had been formed in 1866, with a view to controlling the Indians west of the Missouri River, they having become very restless and troublesome because of the building of the Pacific railroads through their hunting-grounds, and the encroachments of pioneers, who began settling in middle and western Kansas and eastern Colorado immediately after the war.

The Seven Minute Screenplay
The Seven Minute Screenplay is both a grammar of fundamental dramatic principles and a primer on the process of screenwriting. The manual is intended to prepare students for writing full-length feature films through the structured exercise of writing a screenplay for a seven-minute film. Guidelines for the exercise are detailed and an approach to creating the short form is outlined, with each step in the process explained. The steps include character exploration, finding a problem that would force character development, imagining the struggle, pitching the story, preparing the treatment, writing the first draft, and rewriting for character, plot, visual iconography and sensitivity to the active participation of the viewer. Written largely by the screenwriter Pavel Jech (now former Dean of FAMU), the text reflects the many years of his experience in teaching the short form to students. The co-author is a FAMU acting teacher Mary Angiolillo. The Seven Minute Screenplay hopes the beginning screenwriter will appropriate the fundamentals offered in this manual and make them their own, developing a set of skills to be used for making their own unique films.
Publikace The Seven Minute Screenplay je jak gramatika základních principů dramatiky, tak slabikář pro psaní scénáře. Skriptum si klade za cíl připravit studenty na psaní celovečerních filmů pomocí strukturovaného psaní scénáře pro sedmiminutový film. Obsah cvičení je přesně vymezen, každý pracovní krok při tvorbě scénáře pro krátké filmové dílo je detailně rozveden. Mezi tvůrčí kroky patří definování postavy, vymezení problému, který podnítí její vývoj, nalezení dramatického konfliktu, rozpracování příběhu, psaní první verze a rozepsání postavy, děje a vizuální stránky s přihlédnutím k předpokládaným diváckým reakcím. Text vznikl na základě mnohaletých zkušeností scenáristy Pavla Jecha (bývalého děkana FAMU) s vyučováním o krátkých filmových formách ve spolupráci s pedagožkou FAMU Mary Angiolillo. Publikace The Seven Minute Screenplay by měla začínajícím scenáristům pomoci osvojit si základy oboru a rozšířit jejich osobní dovednosti, aby byli schopni vytvořit svůj osobitý film.

Hold on to Your Kids
Children take their lead from their friends: being 'cool' matters more than anything else. Shaping values, identity and codes of behaviour, peer groups are often far more influential than parents.
But this situation is far from natural, and it can be dangerous - it undermines family cohesion, interferes with healthy development, and fosters a hostile and sexualized youth culture. Children end up becoming conformist, anxious and alienated.
In Hold on to Your Kids, acclaimed physician and bestselling author Gabor Mate joins forces with Gordon Neufeld, a psychologist with a reputation for penetrating to the heart of complex parenting. Together they pinpoint the causes of this breakdown and offer practical advice on how to 'reattach' to sons and daughters, establish the hierarchy at home, make children feel safe and understood, and earn back your children's loyalty and love. This updated edition also addresses the unprecedented parenting challenges posed by the rise of digital devices and social media.
By helping to reawaken our instincts, Mate and Neufeld empower parents to be what nature intended: a true source of contact, security and warmth for their children.

Will Bartholomew's dad ever manage to get him out the door?Hilarious illustrations bring Bartolomew's frustration and befuddlement alive in this deceptively simple story that anyone who is not a morning person is bound to relate to.
