Karl Barth (1886-1968) was without doubt the most influential Protestant theologian of the 20th century. He stood up to Nazism and presented a new theological vision in his multi-volume Church Dogmatics. Eberhard Busch worked as Barth's personal assistant from 1965 until Barth's death in 1968. During those years, Busch visited Barth and his family every day in their Basel home, making notes of his visits and conversations as well as protocols of Barth's seminars. Barth had decided not to write an autobiography but shared many thoughts and memories with Busch to preserve them for the future. Thus Busch's diary becomes a unique and fascinating document, lively and funny, with a gem on almost every page. The whole world of the 1960s comes to life, as tales include Barth's visit to the Vatican, his reactions to Vatican II and the many visitors he received at the Basel home.

These two distinguished scholars, Arthur Colby Sprague and J.C. Trewin, trace the development of Shakespearian production both here and in America throughout the twentieth century. They discuss the differing attitudes of the theatre towards the plays themselves and, looking back over more than fifty years of theatre-going, describe the changing fashions and conventions of visual presentation, actors' costumes, and interpretation of characters. When you see a Shakespearian play you may be surprised by such things as Don John wearing black; The Merry Wives of Windsor taking place in winter, and Audrey going barefoot. This book is about such customs and conventions, their origins and prevalence.

Here at last is the keenly awaited new Commentary on Luke-Acts by Loveday Alexander. In her extended introduction Professor Alexander tackles the key issues head on: who wrote the book of Acts? For whom was it written? When was it written? Where was it written? And, essentially, what is the Book of Acts? Acts is the second part of a two volume work which describes the events after the Ascension of Jesus into heaven. Professor Alexander examines both internal and external evidence for this selective history of the Early Church told from a Christian perspective, while emphasizing that this is the book of Acts of The Holy Spirit and an account of the appearance of God`s salvation in human history.In the course of her detailed and most illuminating commentary, Alexander shows her complete familiarity with contemporary scholarship but also regards this as a commentary to be used not just by ivory-tower scholars but by those whose mission is to teach and preach the Gospel.
