1, 2, and 3 John (New International Biblical Commentary, Vol 17)
Thomas F. Johnson

Hendrickson Publishers, 1993

"Tom Johnson combines familiarity with recent scholarship and lucidity of thought and expression into a fine and readable commentary on the epistles of John. While packed full of exegetical, philosophical and historical notes that help the reader to make sense of the argument and thought of the epistles in their original setting, the commentary is not overly loaded with the freight of technical jargon and debate. Johnson deftly leads the reader ...

1 Peter: A New Translation with Introduction and Commentary (Anchor Bible)

3 reviews
John H. Elliott

Anchor Bible, 2001

Comprehensive
The new edition of the Anchor Bible Commentary on 1 Peter IS NOT the same as the previous edition. This is far more comprehensive, far more in depth. It is over 3 times the size of the last edition, but that does not necesarily make it an improvement. However the quality of the content is extraordinary. Elliot provides the best looks at 1 Peter that you will find anywhere. None of the other ...

The 100 Best Love Poems of All Time

Leslie Pockell

Grand Central Publishing, 2003

Elegant and Classic
How can I keep my soul in me, so that it doesn't touch your soul? How can I raise it high enough, past you, to other things? I would like to shelter it, among remote lost objects, in some dark and silent place that doesn't resonate when our depths resound. ~Rainer Maria Rilke Leslie Pockell has created a collection of 100 Love Poems in order to explore the many facets of love's ...

1020 Haiku in Translation: The Heart of Basho, Buson and Issa

3 reviews
William R. Nelson and Takafumi Saito

BookSurge Publishing, 2007

The gentle natures of the old haiku masters.
Poetry, it is said, is what disappears in translation. This may often be true, for patterns of rhythm and sound in a poem can seldom be carried over into another language, even if the translator be a poet. Happily, this is not a problem in _1020 Haiku in Translation: the Heart of Basho, Buson and Issa_, 2006. Translated by Takafumi Saito and William R. Nelson. Artwork by Munetaka Sakaguchi. ...

100 Minute Bible (Giant Print edition)

3 reviews

100 Minute Press, 2006

Sound Silly? It's not! This handy paperback is a great little tool for Bible Study
I'll admit it. After decades of covering the realm of religion as a journalist, I thought I'd seen just about every style of Bible imaginable -- even Bibles reduced to microdots on credit-card-sized rectangles of plastic! So, when I heard that Chronicle Books was releasing "The 100-Minute Bible," I thought I'd take a look -- and likely have a chuckle. Then, while sitting in on a Bible-study ...

101 Opera Librettos: Complete Texts with English Translations of the World's Best-Loved Operas

13 reviews

Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers, 1996

Where's Turandot!? Otherwise a lovely, comprehensive book
My one problem with this anthology of librettos is that it lacks a libretto for Puccini's Turandot, one of my favourite operas-and one of the more popular ones(!). Otherwise, this is probably your best bet for a general collection of librettos, particularly for the price. The way it's set up is that there are four columns on each page, and each pair of columns is the original text and the ...

1000 Years Of Irish Poetry

Value Proprietary, 1986

I keep it in the bathroom
This is a breathtaking overview of Irish poetry. Great history in some of the older ones. I could have wished for more of that, but then there wouldn't have been as much room for the masters. I keep this one in the bathroom so I can take in some bits and chunks when I have a minute. It's a classic!

1001 Yiddish Proverbs

Fred Kogos

Citadel, 1990

What a Ride!
As a Yiddish enthusiast of the highest rank, I am truly moved to tears by the quiet, nay, noble countenance of this humble book. Answers to all of life's questions are contained in this Yiddish tome. Had Napoleon acknowledged his Yiddish forebears, he might have won Waterloo!! This book puts the 'Id' back in Yiddish.
