Pickwick

The Aims of Jesus (Princeton Theological Monograph Series, 48)

Ben F. Meyer

Pickwick Publications, 2002

One of the most important books on Jesus ever written
It's great to see this book back in print. I read it about 15 years ago, and it, along with N. T. Wright's New Testament and the People of God, Jesus and the Victory of God, and What St. Paul Really Said completely rearranged my thinking about Christianity, eventually ...

The Fruit of Lips (Pittsburgh Theological Monograph Series)

Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy

Pickwick Publications, 2004

A beautiful book full of spirit.
In many ways this is the fruit of Rosenstock-Huessy's life-work. It is a book written out of love of the gospels and their meaning, and it is as dazzling as it is challenging. Only Kierkegaard comes this close to distilling the existential relevance of ...

Christian T. Collins Winn

Our Mutual Friend, 2008

Our Mutual Friend (written in the years 1864â?"65) is the last novel completed by Charles Dickens. It centres on, in the words of critic J. Hillis Miller, "money, money, money, and what money can make of life" (which is, incidentally, a quote from Our Mutual Friend, spoken by Bella at the end of book III, chapter iv.). In the opening chapter, a ...

R.S. Thomas: Poet of the Hidden God : Meaning and Mediation in the Poetry of R.S. Thomas (Princeton ...

D. Z. Phillips

Pickwick Publications, 1986

Hiding and Seeking
To understand Thomas' poetry we must first understand his theology. Phillips comes closer than most to succeeding in this task, as he points to the central importance for Thomas of waiting for God. God is, for Thomas, Deus absconditus - we see and know nothing of God ...

The Pickwick Papers (Penguin Classics)

Charles Dickens

Penguin Classics, 2000

A true joy to read! I did not want it to end!
Charles Dickens is by far among my most favorite writers. The Pickwick Papers was such wonderful light humor and a rollicking adventure, that I never wanted to put it down. Every page, every chapter, brought these wonderful characters into a whole new unique set of ...

The Lazarus Effect

Ben, III Witherington, Ann Witherington

Pickwick Publications, 2008

Anne Rice's Lazarus Effect Blurb
"There is no thriller quite like an archaeological thriller and when we find ourselves in a Biblical mystery, the suspense and the drama are especially delicious. Set against the intense, exotic, and vivid backdrop of modern Israel, yet delving into the deepest ...

The Pickwick Papers (Oxford World's Classics)
Charles Dickens

Oxford University Press, USA, 2008

In 1836 the 23-year-old Dickens was invited by his publishers to write `a monthly something' illustrated by sporting plates. Thus the Pickwick Club was born: its supposed `papers' soom outgrew their origins and became a brilliantly comic novel, still among Dicken's most popular works.
