Gloriana's Rule - Literature, Religion and Power in the Age of Elizabeth

by Fátima Vieira e Rui Carvalho Homem

11,00€ + 10% CARD

receive tomorrow

 Gloriana's Rule derives its title and contents from a specific event, an international conference organised by the Institute of English Studies (Universidade do Porto) in June 2003 to mark the four-hundredth anniversary of the death of Elizabeth I. But this inception does not entail that the volume's rational and goals can be described as celebratory. Rather than embodying a panegyric, the present collection aims to contribute the ongoing interrogation of the myth of Gloriana, considered in its central representations as much as in some of the more peripheral forms ( in politics, language, and social practices) that have helped define the enduring cultural perception of an "Elizabethan golden age".

Perspectives On The Extent Of The Atonement - 3 Views

33,11€ + 10% CARD

 <DIV><I>Perspectives on the Extent of the Atonement</I> presents a point-counterpoint exchange concerning God’s intention in sending Christ to die on the cross. All three contributors recognize a substitutionary element in the atoning work of Christ, but disagree over the nature and objects of that substitution.<BR /><BR />Carl Trueman (Westminster Theological Seminary) argues that Christ’s atoning work secured the redemption of his elect alone. While infinite in value, Christ’s death was intended for and applied strictly to those whom the Father had elected unconditionally in eternity past.<BR /><BR />John Hammett (Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary) argues that Christ’s atoning work had multiple intentions. Of these intentions two rise to the fore: (1) the intention to accomplish atonement for God’s elect and (2) the intention to provide atonement for all mankind.<BR /><BR />Grant Osborne (Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) argues that Christ’s atoning work provided atonement generally for all mankind. The application of that atoning work is conditioned, however, on each person’s willingness to receive it.</DIV>
