From Cover-- "Intended 'for a theatre on Mars', with a cast of nearly five hundred and running to over two hundred scenes, Karl Kraus's apocalyptic tragedy The last days of mankind is the longest, most elaborate play ever written. It is also a bitingly satirical commentary on the outbreak and subsequent course of World War I. Kraus (1874-1936) ranks as one of the greatest twentieth-century sat…

A DANGEROUS VOYAGE BEGINS.... The Titanic is meant to be unsinkable, but as it begins its maiden voyage, there's plenty of danger waiting for four of its young passengers. Paddy is a stowaway, escaping a deadly past. Sophie's mother is delivered to the ship by police-after she and Sophie have been arrested.

The experience resulted in a superbly written and soothing reflection on the death of her husband and her own grieving process. “However,” she explains, “the story is incidenta…
For nearly thirty years, James M. Kittelsons Luther the Reformer has been the standard biography of Martin Luther. Like Roland Baintons biography of the generation before, Kittelsons volume is the one known by thousands of students, pastors, and interested readers as the biography that gave them the details of this dramatic man and his history. The accolades were well deserved. Fair, insightfu…
For too long students have had to resort to nineteenth-century works for scholarly, evangelical studies of Jesus' parables. At last they can turn to a contemporary analysis of the parables by an acknowledged New Testament scholar.
