Introduction to the History of Indian Buddhism
The most influential work on Buddhism to be published in the nineteenth century, Introduction a l’histoire du Buddhisme indien, by the great French scholar of Sanskrit Eugene Burnouf, set the course for the academic study of Buddhism—and Indian Buddhism in particular—for the next hundred years. First published in 1844, the masterwork was read by some of the most important thinkers of the time, including Schopenhauer and Nietzsche in Germany and Emerson and Thoreau in America. Katia Buffetrille and Donald S. Lopez Jr.’s expert English translation, Introduction to the History of Indian Buddhism, provides a clear view of how the religion was understood in the early decades of the nineteenth century.

Under the Olive Tree
"If Jesus were to be born today, he would be born under the rubble of Gaza." This powerful statement of Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac captures the physical and spiritual landscape of Palestinian Christians. Under the lived realities of occupation and struggle, Palestinian theologians attempt to construct their national-political identity in response to three groups: the Palestinian people, the global Christian community, and Western Christianity's view of Judaism. This complex identity is shaped through scriptural interpretation and the development of a religious, national-political discourse rooted in the local context of Palestinian Christians as indigenous people of the Holy Land living under occupation. In Under the Olive Tree, Maayan Raveh offers a glimpse into the heart of Palestinian Christian Theology (PCT) and its contribution to the struggle against oppression. Palestinian theologians emphasize that Palestinians share with the Jewish people the mythical past of the Old Testament as an integral part of their heritage, and assert that Palestine has the same political right to national sovereignty as Israel. Raveh analyzes the writings of indigenous pastor-theologians from a range of Protestant and Catholic denominations, exploring how Palestinian theologians invoke the concept of "witness" both as a theological reflection of suffering—echoing Christ's own passion—and as a historical presence: a community that has lived continuously in the land where Jesus was born, lived, and died, bearing witness not only through faith but also through place and memory. The book delves into pivotal questions that have long intrigued scholars and believers: the divine election of the Israelites, the promise of the Promised Land, and the complex relationship between biblical history, faith, and contemporary identity. Theology enables communities to interpret the religious past and eschatological future in ways that shape their understanding of the national-political present. Under the Olive Tree presents Palestinian theology as part of a broader conversation about the power of faith to form identity and speak across historical and religious divides. Raveh invites readers to consider how theology, in both local and global contexts, becomes a language through which communities articulate—and at times compete over—the search for meaning, memory, and hope amid conflict.

Readings in Romans
To read a passage repeatedly, to examine its ambiguities, to probe its place in a larger text, to reflect on its relationship to other texts by the same author and its place within the canon of Scripture—all of these are acts of committed relationship. As in all committed relationships, the desire to understand is rightly characterized as love. And that desire involves more than a few moments of bewilderment along with insight. When it comes to the Epistle to the Romans, John Chrysostom's plaintive question, "What are you saying, Paul?" is an apt expression of the hermeneutical task, itself a labor of love. Readings in Romans brings together representative studies from Beverly Roberts Gaventa's years of committed relationship with Romans. From the programmatic to specifically exegetical, from those wrestling with the consequences of exegesis—questions of divine power, human freedom, and the identity of Israel vis-á-vis the church—to self-conscious engagement with theologians and writers in conversation with Romans such as Karl Barth and Simone Weil, these essays highlight the contours of Gaventa's extensive and thoughtful work on the apostle and especially his most influential letter. In this way they serve as an encapsulation of her scholarly contributions on Romans and, at the same time, a testimony of devotion to the radical understanding of God to which Paul himself witnesses. An essential companion to Gaventa's definitive commentary on Romans, this volume will assist scholars and students of the New Testament and Christian theology by gathering into one place writings scattered across myriad publications, including journals, conference proceedings, and edited works. More than that, Readings in Romans invites all students of Paul to explore the deep coherence, rich texture, and enduring challenge of one of Christianity's most defining documents.

The book aims to underscore the role of Jewish theosophists within the Theosophical Society and explore their impact on modern Jewish culture—particularly their influence on the development of modern perspectives and forms of Kabbalah.

Ecclesiastical Latin
Ecclesiastical Latin: A Primer on the Language of the Church offers a thorough introduction to the Latin language in 32 chapters, which can be completed in one academic year. The text presents each section in plain language, fully explaining complicated grammar terms which may be unfamiliar to a contemporary audience. Every chapter includes copious examples and practice sentences of the grammar covered, as well as stories drawn from the Vulgate, or Church tradition. In addition to encountering the vocabulary and grammar in practice sentences, the text also offers prayers from the liturgy which illustrate the grammar, as well as sentences which come directly from the corpus of original Ecclesiastical Latin. By the end of the book, students will feel comfortable reading through the Vulgate or praying the liturgy in Latin with more understanding. The grammar structures for each chapter roughly follow the organization of grammar as it is presented in Hans Orberg's Lingua Latina. The student can thus practice more of the language in full immersion with confidence, while also learning the vocabulary and style of later Ecclesiastical Latin.
A Year of the Lord's Favour
Pete Wilcox reflects on the time when, in the space of one year, he was made a diocesan bishop – in the wake of the withdrawal of the preferred candidate – and was diagnosed with and received radical surgery for cancer of the colon that left him with a permanent colostomy. Drawing heavily on daily prayer journal entries kept at the time, he offers encouragement and support for anyone attempting to maintain life as normal while dealing with personal challenges that might be overwhelming. This is a story of both trust and resilience which will inspire and encourage anyone whose hopes and dreams have been overtaken by events, and enable them to find God’s faithfulness in the midst of turmoil.

Saint Dominic and His Mission
Saint Dominic had dedicated himself to a life of prayer and study as a canon regular at the Cathedral of Osma, Spain in 1197. When on a diplomatic mission through southern France, Dominic and his bishop, Diego, encountered the Cathar heresy. The Spaniards were filled with compassion and sought to counter this heresy by preaching and the example of their holy life. In the ensuing years, and with ecclesiastical approval, Dominic would gather around him a group of men, living a common life in evangelical poverty and dedicated to preaching for the salvation of souls, these were the first members of the Order of Preachers, commonly known as Dominicans. In Saint Dominic and His Mission, two of Saint Dominic's spiritual sons present a portrait of this Preacher of Grace using extensive research from the archives of the Order to present Dominic and his brethren in their historical context. The first section comprises two parts: a biographical sketch and an evaluation of hagiographic and historical accounts of the life of St. Dominic. It is said that St. Dominic's gift to the Church is not extensive writings, but a way of life. The second section describes aspects of this distinctly evangelical form life including study and preaching, fraternal life, choral office and the rosary, democratic government, and living in the heart of the Church. In the third section, the authors enlist the help of art historians who present multiple pieces of artwork, ancient and modern, to better know and understand this Doctor of Truth. The final section is a chronology of the life of St. Dominic based on the work of the renowned English Dominic Simon Tugwell, OP. Readers will find that Saint Dominic, whose life and preaching was centered on the Word Incarnate, is a perfect friend and guide to us today as we experience a revival in reverence for the Eucharist and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
