ISBN: 1586170341

The Da Vinci Code, Dan Brown’s best selling novel, purports to be more than fiction: it claims to be based on fact and scholarly research. Brown wants his readers to believe that he is revealing the long-concealed truth about Jesus, Mary Magdalene, and early Christianity, a truth that he says has been suppressed by the malevolent and conspiratorial forces of the Catholic Church. The novel alleges that there has been throughout history a secret group of true followers of a Gnostic Jesus and his wife, Mary Magdalene, the true “Holy Grail”. Almost everything most Christians and non-Christia...

BASKET OF BREAD, A

Publisher: A:

Seller ID: 7021

Thomas Merton wrote to Catherine de Vinck back in 1966, “You have a wonderful Blake-like response to the sacred world.” And Cornelia Jessey Sussman expressed these sentiments about her poetic gift: “...perhaps there are only three or four every century... given the gift to voice the eternal vision, to put into words what we know cannot be put into words. Like the sun breaking through the clouds of a dark frozen winter sky, such poets bring the good news that winter is not forever.” Poetry is more than language, it transcends what it signifies and enables us to see beyond the existing o...

ISBN: 188292679X

Assembled by John Mulloy with Dawson’s cooperation, this book collects Dawson’s essential essays, providing the reader with an illuminating introduction to the sweep of his thought and insistence on the importance of religion in shaping and sustaining civilization. Religion, Dawson believed, is the great creative force in any culture, and the loss of a society’s historic religion therefore portends a process of social dissolution.
