The Pentateuch

History Or Story?

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

This book assumes questions that perceptive readers of all persuasions might ask about the Bible. These questions pertain both to the nature of the text and the text itself. With regard to the former, its historical development is described in reverse order, back through 16th century England to the definitive Hebrew text from which all modern translations are made, the Leningrad Codex, dated 1008 CE. The development continues through prior centuries, importantly, to the Dead Sea Scrolls, which raise new questions about which text to translate. The Pentateuch throughout is discussed with the question in mind: Is it history or story? The great wealth of information, both material and literary, which archaeology has provided over the last one and half centuries as well as the intensive literary analysis of biblical scholars is brought to bear on the text. The attempt is made to provide information not commonly known to the general reader in searching for an answer to the question. The identification of literary traditions with their theological perspectives serves to show the diversity of the material amidst its overall unity. The traditions, which make up the Old Testament, did not end with our canon, whether Jewish, Catholic or Protestant. A group of these later books, known as Apocrypha, are included in some Bibles but not in others. A large number of other books, known as Pseudepigrapha, represent the continuation of the traditions. Those related to Genesis, as well as the ambivalent status of the Apocrypha, are discussed here.

Courts of Appeals in the Federal Judicial System

A Study of the Second, Fifth, and District of Columbia Circuits

By: J. Woodford Howard Jr.

Courts of Appeals were designed to be a unifying force in American law and politics, but they also contribute to decentralization and regionalization of federal law. Woodford Howard studies three aspects of this problem: first, what binds the highly decentralized federal courts into a judicial system; second, what controls the discretion of judges in making law and policy; and third, how can quality judicial decisions be maintained under heavy-volume pressure. Originally published in 1981. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Favorite Counseling and Therapy Techniques

51 Therapists Share Their Most Creative Strategies

By: Howard Rosenthal

This book is divided into four parts. In Part I, "Serendipitous Suggestion: An Introduction to the Wonderful World of Psychotherapeutic Techniques," a case example of a creative counseling technique implemented by the editor and a colleague is described. This section also discusses six key reasons why techniques can enhance therapeutic effectiveness, and describes the evolution of the book. Also included is a description of the techniques acquisitions process, samples of the information sent to the therapists, and a cautionary note concerning the utilization of the techniques discussed in Part III. In Part II, "The Dark Side of Techniques: Beware of the Milton H. Erickson Clone," more cautionary warnings are offered through the editor's descriptions of failures and successes with his patients along with a list of seven points for therapists to keep in mind when studying the various techniques offered. Part II concludes with comments from one of the therapists solicited to provide creative techniques. In Part III, "Techniques," creative counseling techniques are described from 51 therapists. Each entry names the therapists, gives his/or her affiliation(s) and major works, describes the population for which the technique is intended, provides cautionary notes, and finally, describes the technique. "Part IV: 15 Recommendations for Effectively Implementing Counseling and Therapy Techniques" is a brief list of tips. Of particular interest to school psychologist and counselors are: (1) "Using stories in Therapy with Children and Families" (Larry Golden); (2) "Memory Work with Children" (Linda Goldman); and (3) "Bibliotherapy" (Bea Wehrly).(MKA)

The Red Land to the South

American Indian Writers and Indigenous Mexico

By: James Howard Cox

The forty years of American Indian literature taken up by James H. Cox--the decades between 1920 and 1960--have been called politically and intellectually moribund. On the contrary, Cox identifies a group of American Indian writers who share an interest in the revolutionary potential of the indigenous peoples of Mexico--and whose work demonstrates a surprisingly assertive literary politics in the era. By contextualizing this group of American Indian authors in the work of their contemporaries, Cox reveals how the literary history of this period is far more rich and nuanced than is generally acknowledged. The writers he focuses on--Todd Downing (Choctaw), Lynn Riggs (Cherokee), and D'Arcy McNickle (Confederated Salish and Kootenai)--are shown to be on par with writers of the preceding Progressive and the succeeding Red Power and Native American literary renaissance eras. Arguing that American Indian literary history of this period actually coheres in exciting ways with the literature of the Native American literary renaissance, Cox repudiates the intellectual and political border that has emerged between the two eras.
