Excerpt from Anselm's Theory of the Atonement: The Bohlen Lectures, 1908Not all the varying formulations of theology can claim to express the essential and ultimate truth, and we are forced to separate these historical varia tions from the truth itself. In different ages, differ ent aspects and understandings of truth come to be emphasised and made prominent, owing sometimes to their denial and the subsequent controversy, and sometimes to the prevalence of ideas which inhere in the intellectual conditions of the age. When we discern the contemporary causes for a particular state ment, we are led to inquire whether it be a natural and inevitable inference from truths hitherto awaiting. Coordination; as, for example, in the Nicene defini tions concerning the deity of our Lord. At other times, however, we are compelled to discriminate be tween the original and permanent essence of a truth and the temporary and imperfect interpretation of it. The mere systematic statement of a doctrine, therefore, is of little value until the formula has been subjected to the criticism based upon the history of its successive stages. The scholastic spirit is the exact opposite of the critical and historical spirit but the latter is the spirit of our time, and its method is our accepted method of arriving at the truth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

An intimate portrait of six men

This beautifully illustrated volume presents 108 stunning, technically unimaginable works of art in wood from the Montalto Bohlen Collection. The seventy-five internationally recognized artists featured in the book range from pioneering founders of the wood art movement in the United States, such as Bob Stockdale, Melvin Lindquist, David Ellsworth, and Dale Nish, to recent artists who explore wood as an expressive medium, including Hunt Clark, whose new woodworking techniques express his deeply personal vision and relationship with sculptural form. While many of the artists continue to use lathe turning to produce traditional forms, others are experimenting with color, texture, and alternative materials and techniques to push the creative boundaries of the art form. During the past twenty years, wood art has emerged from the centuries-old practice of producing utilitarian tablewares to become part of today's mainstream of artistic expression. The Peabody Essex Museum's exhibition catalogue demonstrates wood art's limitless range of visually and intellectually stimulating possibilities. The works from the Montalto Bohlen Collection speak to the extraordinary technical proficiency behind them. They share each artist's eloquent vision that encompasses man's unique relationship with trees and the natural world.

Here is the unanimously acclaimed collective biography of the six extraordinary men who shaped U.S. policy after World War II. They were the original best and brightest, men whose outsized personalities and dramatic actions brought order to postwar chaos. 48 black-and-white photographs.

The Promise Ring were formed in 1995 in Milwaukee by guitarist Jason Gnewikow, drummer Dan Didier and bassist Scott Beschta. The band was eventually rounded out by frontman Davey von Bohlen, who at the time was a new enlistee into Midwest darlings Capn Jazz but gave The Promise Ring their crucial missing piece. In 1996, the group signed with Jade Tree and released their debut, 30 Degrees Everywhere: a powerful introduction that distilled the spirit and vigor of some of the members punk and har

Hailing from Milwaukee, WI The Promise Ring weren't just emblematic of 90s Midwestern emo: they were one of the most celebrated bands in the history of the genre. Under the leadership of frontman Davey Von Bohlen of Cap'n Jazz, their sound incorporated elements of power pop that would become more popular in later years. They broke up in 2002 and after nearly a decade of inactivity The Promise Ring officially reunited in February 2012. Wood/Water (2002) is the fifth and final album to date by Th

George Kennan, Charles Bohlen, W. Averell Harriman, William Bullitt, Joseph E. Davies, Llewlleyn Thompson, Jack Matlock: these are important names in the history of American foreign policy. Together with a number of lesser-known officials, these diplomats played a vital role in shaping U.S. strategy and popular attitudes toward the Soviet Union throughout its 75-year history. In The Ambassadors and America's Soviet Policy, David Mayers presents the most comprehensive critical examination yet of U.S. diplomats in the Soviet Union.Mayers' vivid portrayal evokes the social and intellectual atmosphere of the American embassy in the midst of crucial episodes: the Bolshevik Revolution, the Great Purges, the Grand Alliance in World War II, the early Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the rise and decline of detente, and the heady days of perestroika and glasnost. He also offers rare portraits of the professional lives of the diplomats themselves: their adjustment to Soviet life, the quality of their analytical reporting, their contact with other diplomats in Moscow, and their influence on Washington.Assessing the strengths and weaknesses of American diplomacy in its most challenging area, this compelling book fills an important gap in the history of U.S. foreign policy and U.S.-Soviet relations. Readers interested in U.S. foreign policy, the cold war, and the policies and history of the former Soviet Union will find The Ambassadors and America's Soviet Policy an intriguing and informative work.
