2011 Reprint of 1959-1960 Two volume Set. Two volumes bound in one.
Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical
Recognition Software. David Martyn Lloyd-Jones was a Welsh
Protestant minister, preacher and medical doctor influential in the
Reformed wing of the British evangelical movement in the 20th
century. He took the view that true Christian fellowship was only
possible amongst those who shared common convictions regarding the
nature of the faith. This two volume set consists of thirty sermons
preached on successive Sundays. The "Sermon on the Mount" is not a
code of ethics or of morals; it is a description of what Christians
are meant to be. In Studies in the Sermon on the Mount, D. Martyn
Lloyd-Jones offers a comprehensive exposition of one of the best
known but often misunderstood passages in the Bible. With
characteristic wisdom, he keeps one eye on Scripture and the other
on the world as he explains Christs teaching to modern-day
believers.
We are inundated with game play today. Digital devices offer
opportunities to play almost anywhere and anytime. No matter our
age, gender, social, cultural, or educational background—we
play. Play in the Age of Goethe: Theories, Narratives, and
Practices of Play around 1800Â is the first book-length work
to explore how the modern discourse of play was first shaped during
this pivotal period (approximately 1770-1830). The eleven chapters
illuminate critical developments in the philosophy, pedagogy,
psychology, politics, and poetics of play as evident in the
work of major authors of the period including Lessing, Goethe,
Kant, Schiller, Pestalozzi, Jacobi, Tieck, Jean Paul,
Schleiermacher, and Fröbel. While drawing on more recent
theories of play by thinkers such as Jean Piaget, Donald
Winnicott, Jost Trier, Gregory Bateson, Jacques Derrida,
Thomas Henricks, and Patrick Jagoda, the volume shows the
debates around play in German letters of this period to be far
richer and more complex than previously thought, as well as more
relevant for our current engagement with play. Indeed, modern
debates about what constitutes good rather than bad practices of
play can be traced to these foundational discourses. Published by
Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers
