In his wide-ranging new book, Francis Young explores the role of occult traditions in the history of the island of Great Britain: Merlin's realm. He argues that while the great magus and artificer invented by Geoffrey of Monmouth was a powerful model for a succession of actual royal magical advisers (including Roger Bacon and John Dee), monarchs nevertheless often lived in fear of hostile sorcery while at other times they even attempted magic themselves.

Many Christians today long to become reacquainted with their ancient ancestors in the faith. They see a deeper worship and devotion in the prayers and hymns of the early church. And they believe that the writings of the early church can shed new light on their understanding of Scripture. But where and how do we begin? Our first encounter with the writings of the church fathers may seem like visiting a far country where the language, assumptions, concerns, and conclusions are completely unfamiliar to us. Author Christopher Hall helps us through this cultural confusion.

The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), or Vatican II, is arguably the most significant event in the life of the Catholic Church since the Reformation. The Council initiated, intentionally or not, profound changes not simply within Catholic theology, but in the religious, social, and moral lives of the world's billion Catholics. It also reconfigured, intellectually and practically, the Church's engagements with those outside of it—most obviously with regard to other religions.

In the eighth century, a debate between Sergius the Stylite and a Jew occurred. The discussion was conveniently titled Debate against a Jew. It records arguments about the relevance of biblical texts to Christians and the Jewish people. The anti-Jewish perspectives of Sergius are not surprising. The response given by his Jewish interlocutor is, however. The Jew noted that he was surprised by the number of Christians who attended his synagogue, contributed to it, and celebrated various Jewish holidays alongside Jews.

Fr. Vincent Miceli breaks ground in this analysis of seventeen Enlightenment theologians and philosophers who contributed to the rise of atheism. He explores their efforts and successes in convincing mankind to deny the existence of God, and he demonstrates how atheism has succeeded by creating mythical gods to stand in the place of God. What Fr. Miceli shows is that each tenet of atheism doesn't deny the existence of a Higher Power; it simply replaces the true Power with a false power.

"Judäa und die Juden“ ist der elfter Teil von der spannenden Geschichte Roms von den Anfängen der Königszeit bis zur Alleinherrschaft Caesars und führt dabei in die Gesellschaft und die Verfassung des römischen Staates im Wandel der Jahrhunderte ein. Für dieses Werk erhielt Mommsen 1902 den Literaturnobelpreis, als erstes und einziges Geschichtswerk bislang überhaupt. Doch nicht nur politische und militärische Ereignisgeschichte, sondern ebenso auch Soziales wie etwa die Klassenkämpfe zwischen Plebejern und Optimaten und ökonomische Faktoren finden ihr angemessenes Gewicht bei Mommsen.

One hot, humid day in July 1944, the Gestapo abducted 15-year-old Henry and his mother, forcing them onto cramped cattle cars in the Łódź Polish Ghetto. Like so many Jews before them, they had been selected to disappear–they were being sent to Auschwitz.

Christen sollten neu über Art und Ausdrucksformen ihrer Anbetung nachdenken. Es ist wichtig, die dahinter liegenden Überzeugungen, Bedürfnisse und Anliegen zu verstehen. Anbetung braucht eine Sprache und nachvollziehbare Modelle, wenn sie Menschen faszinieren und mit dem Geheimnis des Glaubens angemessen in Verbindung bringen will. Der Berliner Theologe und Liedermacher Martin Pepper entwickelt ein Kaleidoskop von Anliegen und Archetypen für eine lebendige Anbetungspraxis.

Fortuna was one of the most celebrated goddesses of the vast Roman Empire. Her festival themes such as success, love, marriage, and homecoming continue to resonate in our times.

Nakam tells the story of “the Avengers” (Nokmim), a group of young Holocaust survivors led by poet and resistance fighter Abba Kovner, who undertook a mission of revenge against Germany following the crimes of the Holocaust. Motivated by both the atrocities they had endured and the realization that murderous antisemitic attacks on survivors continued long after the Nazi surrender, these fifty young men and women sought retaliation at a level commensurate with the devastation caused by the Holocaust, making clear to the world that Jewish blood would no longer be shed with impunity.

This book defines and exposes modern anti-semitism. It shows how the scourge of Jew-hatred is as virulent as it ever was, and how modern anti-semites hide their hate behind the pretexts of "human rights" and "international law".
