The First Bible of the Church. A Plea for the Septuagint Journal for the study of the Old Testament Supplement Series 206.
Copenhagen International Seminar 1. Sheffield Academie Press, 1996. In-8, hardcover, dustjacket, 163pp, first edition.
Publisher notice: The First Bible of the Church describes of the shape of the Jewish Bible at the time of the New Testament, with a special focus on the significance of the Greek translation, the Septuagint. The Jewish defence of the Septuagint version and its reception into the early Church makes it a representative of the Jewish Bible tradition fully on a par with the Hebrew Bible. This fact is especially important because the Septuagint is extensively used in the New Testament writings, whereby it - and not the Hebrew Bible (the Masoretic text)-is the most obvious candidate for the title of the first Bible of the Church. Very fine copy. - Frais de port : -France 4,95 € -U.E. 9 € -Monde (z B : 15 €) (z C : 25 €)

Le recueil de cette fameuse ambassade a été préparé sur ordre du gouvernement britannique. Outre limportance historique de louvrage, ce recueil est particulièrement intéressant pour les descriptions géographiques des lieux visités: Madère, Ténériffe, Rio de Janeiro, St. Hélène, Tristan da Cunha, lîle Amsterdam, Java, Sumatra, la Cochinchine [Vietnam], etc La Grande Bretagne souhaitait établir des relations diplomatiques officielles avec la Chine, notamment pour les rapports commerciaux. Mais lautosuffisance économique de la Chine, qui depuis des siècles navait admis de présence étrangère, rendit lambassade le Lord Macartney peu fructueuse. Plus quune réussite politique, cette ambassade fut loccasion de cet admirable recueil qui livre un témoignage unique sur la Chine du XVIIIe siècle.

"The land of Turkey has not only yielded archaeological finds essential to the formation of the field of archaeology; these finds also played a crucial role in the making of a national narrative in the transition from the late Ottoman Empire to the present-day Republic. The outcome af a symposium organized by Koç University's Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations in istanbul, the essays in this volume critically engage with the constitution of Classical and Byzantine archaeology in Turkey, adressing such issues as the historical context of the production of knowledge, the roles of individuals and institutions in shaping scholarship, and the current and future state of field."
