Softcover. Condizione: VG, sewn, in orig. red wrapper. 126 p.; 18.5 cm. (SCM book club ; 209 -- SCM centrebooks : Christian casebooks) Contents: 1 The nature of communication - 2 What is there to communicate? - 3 Across the centuries - 4 The written word - 5 The spoken word - 6 The visual word - 7 The church is the message. -- `No more than a girl can be compelled to accept the love of a particular boy.no more can a man or woman be driven into a position where they have no alternative but to accept the love of God. Just how clearly Jesus saw this, and how scrupulously he observed its implications in the exercise of his ministry, is to be seen by a careful examination of the gospel records. White it seems necessary at an early stage in this book to establish as firmly as possible that the communication of the Christian faith is to be seen in terms of sharing and not of manipulative propaganda - a point to which I shall return on a number of occasions later - it would be a serious mistake to suppose that the communication of the Christian faith is essentially different from other forms of communication, religious or secular.' (p. 12 f.) -- Queries from the wrapper: Why are religious books often so dull? Why is the standard of religious television apparently so low? Why are church papers so depressing? Why is so much preaching joyless and unattractive? Are the churches really doing all that can be done to communicate the gospel today? His book contains not only sharp criticism of many methods of contemporary evangelism but also a positive statement of today's gospel and suggestions of ways in which it can be brought to life.

Publisher's note: Drawing on a wide body of internationally-renowned scholars, including a core of Italians, this volume focuses on new material and puts crime and disorder in Renaissance Italy firmly in its political and social context. All stages of the judicial process are addressed, from the drafting of new laws to the rounding-up of bandits. Attention is paid both to common crime and to more historically specific crimes, such as sumptuary laws. Attempts to prevent or suppress disorder in private and public life are analysed, and many different types of crime, from the sexual to the political and from the verbal to the physical, are considered. In sum the volume aims to demonstrate the fundamental importance of crime and disorder for the study of the Italian Renaissance. It is the only single-volume treatment available of the subject in English. Other books have studied crime in a single city, or single types of crime, but few have presented a cross-section of articles which deploy diverse methodological approaches in material from many parts of the peninsula.
