Описание: Next Year in Jerusalem recognizes that Jews have often experienced or imaged periods of exile andreturn in their long tradition. The fourteen papers in this collection examine this phenomenon from different approaches, genres, and media. They cover the period from biblical times through today. Among the exiles highlighted are the Babylonian Exile (sixth century BCE), the exile after the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple (70 CE), and the years after the Crusaders (tenth century CE). Events of return include the aftermath of the Babylonian Exile (fifth century BCE), the centuries after theTemple’s destruction (first and second CE), and the years of the establishment of the modern State of Israel (1948 CE). In each instance authors pay close attention to the historical settings, the literature created by Jews and others, and the theological explanations offered (typically, this was seen as divine punishment or reward for Israel’s behavior). The entire volume is written authoritativelyand accessibly.
In Scotland's Religious War - 16th Century: The Return of Mary Queen of Scots Stephen McDowall gives a thorough and meticulous account of the period during a key part of the Scottish Reformation's aftermath - the return of the Catholic Mary to Scotland from France after the death of her French husband, King Francis.
Presented in detail, depth and in chronological order, the chapters conclude with endnotes referenced in the text, and the sources cited are numerous and beneficial. The author successfully encapsulates the complex political milieus in Scotland, France, England and Europe and their impact on the nucleus of Scottish history. This was an incredibly turbulent period; one into which Mary somewhat naively stumbled. The Reformation had turned Scotland mostly Protestant and Mary was a devout Catholic with a claim to the Scottish and English thrones
Mary is the centrepiece of this important historical record, from her arrival to the death of her second husband, to her interaction with the Catholic church and its desire to return Scotland to Catholicism, to her eventual abdication and escape from Scotland, this is a comprehensive balanced story of a person, a period and a country, and there is never a feeling that one focus is sacrificed for another.
This meticulously researched work is presented with great detail, accuracy and historical insight and is sure to appeal to a wide audience.
