Devoted to the mythic pattern of cosmological interpretation, the prophetic tradition of Hebrew culture, and the Greek ideas of the pre-philosophic era... Concluding pages review the subsequent Western tradition of political philosophy, from Aristotle to Heidegger, stressing the continual interplay between ideas of time and political order. ; 314 pages

"The Seven Sermons here printed were preached in East-wood Chapel, at Seven successive services, during the month of November, 1879. Having the only distinction of being the most easily obtainable fragment of a busy ministry, they can not pretend to much, if they would. They are thus published, from a reporter's notes, that they may serve as a memorial to those who heard them, of the preacher's unaffected gratitude for the generous atmosphere which brought them into existence." - From the Preface.

Biblical Greek Exegesis
Grand Rapids MI: Zondervan Publishing House 1998 "Biblical Greek Exegesis presents a proven highly practical approach to the study of intermediate and advanced Greek grammar.

Beginning with selections from the Greek New Testament students learn intermediate and advanced Greek grammar inductively by analyzing the text.

GÖKSEL SAZCI.
The treasures of Troia. Translated by Jean D. Carpenter Efe. Edited by Arzu Kahramani Pekin.
Fine Fine English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (34 x 24 cm). In English. 437 p., color and b/w ills. The treasures of Troia. Translated by Jean D. Carpenter Efe. Edited by Arzu Kahramani Pekin. It has been some 140 years now that actual finds from the ancient city of Troy-that city near the Dardanelles-that Troia around which was spun the famed epic of Homer's Illiad-appeared to accompany and magnify the myth. The finds unearthed there-many representing buried treasures-are today widely scattered, with principal groups, however, now found housed in only (!) eight different museums. The goal of this work is to bring the individual pieces together, to verify their common origin, to consider their purpose, and to place them into an accurate chronological perspective-not only within the strata of the site itself, but throughout the Bronze Age world that helped create them. These objects demonstrate how developed the aesthetic sensibilities of our ancestors living some 4500 years ago really were, and how highly developed the craft of their goldsmiths was at the time. Geographical patterns of influence as well as the import of semiprecious stones and other raw materials stress the far-reaching trade and significance of the Trojans.
