KJV Bible 1611 Edition


Description

400th Anniversary EditionFor 400 years, the Authorized Version of the Bible popularly known as the King James Version has been beloved for its majestic phrasing and stately cadences. No other book has so profoundly influenced our language and our theology. Over time, however, the text has suffered subtle and occasionally troublesome alterations. This edition preserves the original 1611 printing. Word for word and page for page, the text with its original marginal notes, preface, and other introductory material appears as it first did. The sole concession to modernity is a far more readable roman typeface set by nineteenth-century master printers. A valuable and essential addition to every Bible library. John R. Kohlenberger IIIFEATURES Original preface and translators notes Alfred Pollard's classic essay on pre-1611 English translations and the history of the Authorized Version New essays on the enduring impact of the KJV and the Apocrypha Handsome page design with decorative initials Page-edge gilding and ribbon marker (genuine leather only) Clear type is convenient to read and reference Special logo on book spine and packaging commemorates the 400th Anniversary Includes the Apocrypha"

“The Racketeer is guilty of only one thing: keeping us engaged until the very last page.”—USA Today More than twenty years after its original appearance in Italian, "The Open Work" remains significant for its powerful concept of "openness"--the artist's decision to leave arrangements of some constituents of a work to the public or to chance--and for its striking anticipation of two major themes of contemporary literary theory: the element of multiplicity and plurality in art, and the insistence on literary response as an interactive process between reader and text. The questions Umberto Eco raises, and the answers he suggests, are intertwined in the continuing debate on literature, art, and culture in general.This entirely new edition, edited for the English-language audience with the approval of Eco himself, includes an authoritative introduction by David Robey that explores Eco's thought at the period of "The Open Work," prior to his absorption in semiotics. The book now contains key essays on Eco's mentor Luigi Pareyson, on television and mass KJV Bible 1611 Edition pdf culture, and on the politics of art. Harvard University Press will publish separately and simultaneously the extended study of James Joyce that was originally part of "The Open Work," entitled "The Aesthetics of Chaosmos: The Middle Ages of James Joyce." "The Open Work" explores a set of issues in aesthetics that remain central to critical theory, and does so in a characteristically vivid style. Eco's convincing manner of presenting ideas and his instinct for the lively example are threaded compellingly throughout. This book is at once a major treatise in modern aesthetics and an excellent introduction to Eco's thought.
