The Art of Living for A Technological Age
The Art of Living for A Technological Age sketches the crisis of our late modern age, where persons are enamored by the promises of progress and disciplined to form by the power of technology--the ontology of our age. Yet, it also offers a response, attending to those performative activities, educative and transformative social practices that might allow us to live humanly and bear witness to human being (becoming) for a technological age.

Theology, Comedy, Politics
What is the relevance of comedy for the global crises of late-modernity and the theological critique thereof? This book develops recent philosophical, anthropological, and psychoanalytical studies of humor to develop a theology of comedy. It argues that comedy not only participates in the divine, but that it should inform our liturgical, sacramental, and ecclesial life if we are to respond to the postmodern age in which having fun is an ideological imperative of market forces.

Jubilees is an ancient rewriting of Genesis and the first part of Exodus from an anonymous second-century BCE Jewish author whose distinctive perspective--as well as the writing's apparent popularity at Qumran--makes it particularly important for any reconstruction of early Judaism. James C. VanderKam, the world's foremost authority on the writing, offers a new translation and the first full commentary on the book in the English language, covering contemporary scholarship and describing the book's influence on Jewish and Christian writers.

Philippians
Paul A. Holloway treats Philippians as a literary unity and a letter of consolation, written probably in Rome and thus the latest of Paul's letters. Adapting the methodology of what he calls a new history of religions perspective, Holloway attends carefully to the religious topoi of Philippians, especially the metamorphic myth in chapter 2, and draws significant conclusions about Paul's personalism and "mysticism". Holloway draws richly on Jewish, Greek, and Roman comparative material to present a complex understanding of the apostle as a Hellenized and Romanized Jew.

Leppin explores the four "solas" of the Reformation -- Christ, grace, faith, and scripture -- as both anchored in the culture of late-medieval devotion and representing new, firmly demarcated formulae.
