ce livre : celle de l'Évangile de Judas. Judas. Le traître de Gethsémani, celui qui embrassa Jésus avant de le livrer. Judas, l'homme aux trente deniers, universellement détesté. Rien de bon ne saurait venir d'un tel homme. Et pourtant... Pourtant, cet évangile présente Judas comme celui que Jésus choisit pour le livrer, en somme le plus fidèle de ses disciples ! Mais condamné comme hérétique par l'Église, ce texte du IIe siècle devait disparaître dans les oubliettes de l'Histoire... Jusqu'à aujourd'hui. -- 4e de couvA groundbreaking, freshly-researched examination of one of the most dramatic and consequential marriages in history: Henry VIII's long courtship, short…
union, and brutal execution of Anne Boleyn. Hunting the Falcon is the story of how Henry VIII's obsessive desire for Anne Boleyn changed him and his country forever. John Guy and Julia Fox, two of the most acclaimed and distinguished historians of this period, have joined forces to present Anne and Henry in startlingly new ways. By closely examining the most recent archival discoveries, and peeling back layers of historical myth and misinterpretation and distortion, Guy and Fox are able to set Anne and Henry's tragic relationship against the major international events of the time, and integrate and reinterpret sources hidden in plain sight or simply misunderstood. Among other things, they dispel lingering and latently misogynistic assumptions about Anne which anachronistically presumed that a sixteenth-century woman, even a queen, could exert little to no influence on the politics and beliefs of a patriarchal society. They reveal how, in fact, Anne was a shrewd, if ruthless, politician in her own right, a woman who steered Henry and his policies, often against the advice he received from his male advisers—and whom Henry seriously contemplated making joint sovereign. Hunting the Falcon sets the facts–and some completely new finds–into a far wider frame, providing an appreciation of this misunderstood and underestimated woman. It explores how Anne organized her "side" of the royal court on novel and (in male eyes) subversive lines compared to her queenly predecessors, adopting instead French protocol by which the sexes mingled freely in her private chambers. Men could share in the women's often sexually charged courtly "pastimes" and had liberal access to Anne, and she to them—encounters from which she gained much of her political intelligence and extended her authority, and which also sowed the seeds of her own downfall. An exhilarating feat of historical research and analysis, Hunting the Falcon is also a thrilling and tragic story of a marriage that has proved of enduring fascination over the centuries. But in the hands of John Guy and Julia Fox, even the most knowledgeable reader will encounter this story as if for the first timeLes impostures antichrétiennes: des apocryphes au Da Vinci code
Par Joseph-Marie Verlinde. 2006
Plus que jamais, le christianisme se doit de répondre aux défis qui lui sont lancés, notamment au New Age et…
aux thèses développées dans le Da Vinci Code, ou encore au gnosticisme, à l'occultisme et à la magia sexualis . Les adeptes du New Age adhèrent en effet à l'idée d'une Tradition primordiale dont les religions ne seraient que des expressions plus ou moins dévoyées. Joseph-Marie Verlinde démontre le caractère fantaisiste de cette théorie, prenant forme chez Dan Brown dans le culte à la Grande Déesse qui a supplanté le Dieu paternaliste judéo-chrétien. En déconstruisant une à une les thèses de l'écrivain américain - sur la Révélation, le mythe du Graal, la soi-disant diabolisation de la sexualité par l'Église, sa prétendue misogynie -, il nous donne les clés pour comprendre la véritable teneur de l' oeuvre de Dan Brown. Et c'est aussi pour lui l'occasion de répandre la Bonne Nouvelle pour contrer ses effets. -- 4e de couvCinquante portraits bibliques (Littérature étrangère)

Endgame, the explosive book from longtime royal journalist Omid Scobie and author of the international blockbuster Finding Freedom, is a…
penetrating investigation into the current state of the British monarchy—an unpopular king, a power-hungry heir to the throne, a queen willing to go to dangerous lengths to preserve her image, and a prince forced to start a new life after being betrayed by his own family. Queen Elizabeth II's death ruptured the already-fractured foundations of the House of Windsor—and dismantled the protective shield around it. With an institution long plagued by antiquated ideas around race, class and money, the monarchy and those who prop it up are now exposed and at odds with a rapidly modernizing world. Relying on his vast experience as a royal reporter and over a decade of conversations and interviews with current and former Palace staff, trusted friends of the royals and even the family members themselves, Scobie pulls back the curtain on an institution in turmoil to show what the monarchy must change in order to survive. This is the monarchy's endgame. Do they have what it takes to save it?Mais d'où vient la femme de Caïn?: les récits insolites de la Bible

Par Alan Stewart. 2014
"As the son of Mary Queen of Scots, born into her 'bloody nest,' James had the most precarious of childhoods.…
Even before his birth, his life was threatened: it was rumored that his father, Henry, had tried to make the pregnant Mary miscarry by forcing her to witness the assassination of her supposed lover, David Riccio. By the time James was a one-year-old, Henry was murdered, possibly with the connivance of his mother, Mary was in exile in England and he was King of Scotland. By the age of five, he had experienced three different regents as the ancient dynasties of Scotland battled for power and made him a virtual prisoner in Stirling Castle. In fact, James did not set foot outside the confines of Stirling until he was eleven, when he took control of the country. But even with power in his hands, he would never feel safe. For the rest of his life, he could be caught up in bitter struggles between the warring political and religious factions who fought for control over his mind and body." -- Provided by publisherThe friends of Jesus (Life-changing Bible story series #02)

l'Évangile. Au seuil de la jeunesse, l'auteur est passé, dans les camps de la mort, par l'épreuve du silence de Dieu. Devenu particulièrement sensible à l'immensité de la détresse qui peut submerger les hommes, une question le poursuit : dans la nuit de la mort où Dieu se tait, quelle espérance l'Évangile peut-il encore apporter ? En méditant les évangiles, l'auteur cherche à rencontrer un visage, une présence. " L'homme qui annonce au monde la tendresse de Dieu pour la terre a connu l'expérience la plus crucifiante de l'absence de Dieu. La révélation de Dieu en Jésus se fait au cœur même de la condition humaine la plus abandonnée." La vérité de l'Évangile tient à la profondeur de cette expérience de Jésus. L'auteur en est convaincu. Et sa lecture des grandes pages des évangiles, qui se distingue par la justesse exégétique et par une émouvante sobriété de ton, en porte la marque, comme s'il conviait le lecteur à un sérieux inhabituel, à une attention extrême, pour rencontrer Jésus. Ce livre, qui laisse deviner un voyage intérieur, s'adresse aux femmes et aux hommes de ce temps qui, de tant de manières, font l'épreuve de l'absence et du silence de Dieu.Le suppléant (Documents)

of his reign. Elegantly written by the most authoritative of royal historians writing today, it is deeply researched, impeccably sourced and filled with scoops and new details. This is the definitive book' – Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of The Romanovs By acclaimed royal biographer and author of Queen of Our Times, Robert Hardman, Charles III is a brilliant account of a tumultuous period in British history, full of intriguing insider detail and the real stories behind the sadness, the dazzling pomp, the challenges and the triumphs as Charles III sets out to make his mark. How would – or could – he fill the shoes of the record-breaking Elizabeth II? With fresh debates about the monarchy, political upheavals and a steady flow of damning headlines unleashed by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Charles could not afford to put a foot wrong. Hardman draws on unrivalled access to the Royal Family, friends of the King and Queen, key officials and courtiers, plus unpublished royal papers, to chart the transition from those emotionally charged days following the death of the late Queen all through that make or break first year on the throne. This book also reveals how Charles III is determined to move ahead at speed, the vital role played by Queen Camilla, the King's relationships with his sons and the rest of his family, his plans for reforming the monarchy and how he is taking his place on the world stage. Charles III is a fascinating portrait of a hard-working, modern monarch, determined to remain true to himself and to his Queen, to make a difference, to weather the storms – and, what's more, to enjoy it. 'Hardman is the unsurpassed grand master when it comes to the inside story of the modern monarchy. Full of surprises and glorious detail' – Andrew Roberts, author of George III: The Life and Reign of Britain's Most Misunderstood MonarchThe Gift

After mysteriously receiving a camera on her fifteenth birthday, she begins to document her world, but the gift carries with it a weight she can't yet see. A creature moves on the edge of her vision and stalks her dreams. As the revolution unfolds, the confines of Anastasia's world keep closing in. Something is following her, and it might not be human.This volume by the late Bernd J. Diebner presents an anthology of studies previously published only in German from 1971…
to 2020 on a wide range of topics in biblical studies. The 18 essays in this collection offer profound insight into the works of German scholarship which have strongly influenced biblical studies and related research in the 20th century. Being an important, but lesser recognized ‘member’ of the Copenhagen school, Diebner voiced serious criticism of contemporary biblical scholarship which is discussed in the first seven chapters. The remaining chapters offer challenging new perspectives on well-known themes, narratives, and compositions related to history, ideology, and archaeology, on the one hand, and text and canon, on the other, as alternatives to traditional historical–critical approaches. Now published in English for the first time, this volume makes these essays available to Anglophone students and scholars of biblical and ancient Near Eastern studies.
