Fox Robin Lane
The Unauthorized Version: Truth and Fiction in the Bible
Alfred A. Knopf 1992. Book. Near-Fine. Hardcover. First American Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. A photo of this book is available. Near-fine copy - Stated First American Edition - NO remainder marks or dustcover clippings. Tight spine bright pages. 478 pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. Dustcover shows light wear NO tears. The Bible tells a long story from the Creation to the rise of Christianity. Some regard it as the word of God; some admire it as a literary chronicle. But is it true In this book the author approaches the Bible in search of an answer. Annotation The author of Pagan and Christians examines the scriptures as history myth and literature explaining their inconsistencies and locating their core of truth. "Unfailingly incisive thought-provoking humane."--The Economist. From the Publisher When Pontius Pilate asked Jesus "What is truth" he received no answer. In this provocative vastly learned and elegantly argued book a historian of international reputation asks the same question of the Bible with triumphant results. The Unauthorized Version discusses the two incompatible creation stories in Genesis and the historical errors in the Gospels' accounts of the Nativity. It introduces us to a Bible that came late to monotheism propounded a jumble of conflicting laws and whose authors wrote under assumed names. Far from debunking the scriptures though Robin Lane Fox locates their core of truth: his book is a bold and original contribution both to the history of religion and the literature of belief.

Fox Robin Lane
The Unauthorized Version : Truth and Fiction in the Bible
New York: A Borzoi Book Alfred A Knopf / Random House Inc Dist. Fine in Fine dust jacket 1992. Hardcover. Marfree acidfree F/Fine gift qual club maroon boards over 1/4 beige cloth; not written-in underlined clearance or discard. Usually mails within 12 hours. ; Book Club Edition; 9.50 x 1.25 x 6.75; 478 pages; From Publishers Weekly: According to Oxford historian Fox Pagans and Christians "Scripture is not God's word in any strong sense nor is it unerring with the possible exception of a few trivial facts. " He asserts that Genesis offers two Creation stories that don't correspond to historical suppositions and are made up from two contradictory sources; Luke's account of the Nativity is incongruous with his own date for the Annunciation and with Matthew's narrative of the Nativity; Jewish authors of the Bible wrote unreservedly under false names choosing those of superiors in the distant past such as Solomon and David. Moreover the Gospels do not agree on the exact day of Jesus's Crucifixion; and anonymous authors of the Old Testament added "prophecies" after the event such as prophecies attached to Isaiah ca. 740-700 B. C. that predicted the coming of Cyrus in the 530s B. C. Fox concludes that the Bible may not be historical but it has power as a mirror of humanity rather than divinity. He here reads biblical texts closely and brings many examples that may help neophytes to probe the historical veracity of the Bible. But Fox's arguments are also curiously diffuse and the bulk of them will be known to Bible students. Copyright 1992 Reed. From Kirkus Reviews Biblical historiography with an edge by an Oxford don whose sword is too unwieldy for his prey. Fox Pagans and Christians 1986; The Search for Alexander 1980 has a long tradition behind him: Classical historians from Gibbon onward have viewed the Christian overshadowing of Rome and Athens with nostalgic regret. Fox though carries his distress into an examination of the Torah as well as he provides us with a very close reading of the Old and New Testaments taking Pilate's taunt ``What is truth '' as his point of origin. As a historian Fox finds much amiss. Genesis gives two contradictory versions of the creation of Man he says; the infancy narratives of St. Luke are patently false Augustus never issued any decree ``that all the world should be taxed'' ; and the Epistles are padded with ``aggressive forgeries '' clumsily interpolated centuries after the original compositions. ``If scripture is not the unerring word '' Fox asks ``what is it '' That is an unfortunate query because it moves the scope of Fox's work beyond history where he is quite at ease into literature where his competence seems less sure . The questions of inspiration metaphor personification and allegory are forgotten as Fox goes careening through the text in search of errors like a lawyer taking issue with Portia's jurisprudence in The Merchant of Venice. In the end Fox can provide no answer himself a curious stance that puts him in the same company as the most rock-ribbed fundamentalist of the American heartland. This is both frustrating and unfortunate as Fox writes extremely well and his scholarship per se seems sound and clearly argued. A wealth of information much of it fascinating put forward for reasons that are less than obvious. A decent source book then but a total failure as an argument. -�1992 Kirkus. #Review#"Magnificent.delivered with authority and verve. Learned but never pedantic Lane Fox is an unfailingly incisive thought-provoking humane courteous and often entertaining guide. "#-- The Economist#From Library Jour: The author of Pagans and Christians gives a detailed exposition of the historical origins or lack thereof of the Bible. Fox claims that he believes "in the Bible but not in God " and thus explores the Bible as a historian. His version is "unauthorized " not because it has been suppressed but because the Bible does not proclaim its authority. He reaches for what the authors of the Bible intended realizing that the Bible is not the word of God and that much of it is not . A Borzoi Book, Alfred A Knopf / Random House Inc, Dist. hardcover

TRAVELLING HEROES Greeks and Their Myths in the Epic Age of Homer
Allen Lane. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 0713999802 . One bumped corner else Fine. Very minor shelfwear to DJ. ; 528 pages; Oxford classicist Robin Lane Fox explores the 700s BCE the century to which he imputes the composition of the Iliad and the Odyssey. Explaining that this was an era of cultural contact between Greeks�specifically those from the island Euboea�and residents of the eastern littoral of the Mediterranean Sea he delves deeply into the nature of that exchange. Aiming to evoke the Euboeans' mind-set he springs from the archaeological traces of their settlements to the gods and heroes of the Near East they adapted into their own myths. While there is considerable textual explication of Homer and Hesiod involved in Fox's procedure he pulls the mythical characters from the pages and places them in the physical landscapes with which the Euboeans not only associated them but believed they actively inhabited. So doing lends the appealing impetus of travel writing to Fox's account that aids readers in absorbing the world of pagan belief . Allen Lane hardcover

Many of the pieces have not been re-issued since their Sunday debut. I have tried to convey the various qualities of the entire series by giving each of the main types some space. " .
