The Quest for Evolutionary Socialism is a timely response to the need for a new, comprehensive biography of the life and works of Eduard Bernstein, the German "Father of Marxist Revisionism". Professor Steger addresses recent academic developments and current debates on the "End of Socialism". Setting this study within the historical context of the European labor movement, Steger thus interprets Bernstein's "Evolutionary Socialism" as an ethically-motivated quest for liberty, solidarity and distributive justice.

This first full-length biography meets the growing interest in Ernst Troeltsch's insights in modern historical consciousness and the relativism that seems to accompany it.Hans-Georg Drescher traces Troeltsch's life from his birth in Augsburg, distinguished university career and meteoric rise to be professor of theology in Heidelberg to his final change of faculty and appointment as professor of philosophy in Berlin. In connection with each major period of Troeltsch's life, Drescher analyzes Troeltsch's major theological and philosophical work, much of which has never been translated.Here, then, is a vivid picture, not only of the thinker who was virtually the first to tackle on a broad front the many problems for religious belief and practice raised by the rise of the modern historical consciousness but also of German university life in all its facets before, during, and immediately after the First World War. The impact of this study is heightened by a series of contemporary photographs.For many Troeltsch is problematic because his expressions seem to vary depending on the context. Drescher's genetic approach presents a deeply dialogical thinker who, as his friend Carl Neumann, the Heidelberg art historian, once put it, carried on "dialogues . . . with books and people."A monumental introduction to Ernst Troeltsch.

Ernst Katz was one of the foremost teachers of Anthroposophy in America during the second half of the twentieth century. He was professor of physics at the University of Michigan and, quite likely, the only professor in the country who taught courses in both natural science and “spiritual” science at the university level. He also led anthroposophic study groups, which attracted people from all around southern Michigan and, ultimately, enriched the spiritual lives of people from coast to coast. In the early 1960s, Dr. Katz began writing his “teaching essays,” his response to the many questions through the years intended to help students comprehend the profound wisdom contained in the major works of Anthroposophy. Dr. Katz’s strength was his ability to explain complex esoteric ideas in terms of clear analogies, taking examples from everyday life. He became a master at writing explanatory guides for some of the most important spiritual-scientific concepts. Core Anthroposophy makes available Dr. Katz’s carefully constructed teaching essays. It offers present and future students of Anthroposophy with a valuable and accessible resource for better understanding the esoteric teachings of Rudolf Steiner. Topics include: The Mission of Rudolf Steiner Essays on Rudolf Steiner’s Philosophy of Spiritual Activity About Your Relation to Rudolf Steiner Meditation, an Introduction Meditation According to Rudolf Steiner Cosmic Secrets in Rudolf Steiner’s Health Verses Thoughts about the Foundation Stone Contemplations about the Holy Spirit Rudolf Steiner’s Concept of Four Types of Etheric Forces

Professor Ernst Badian (1925-2011) was one of the most influential Alexander historians of the twentieth century. His first articles on the subject appeared in 1958, and he continued for a full fifty years to reshape scholarly perception of the reign of Alexander the Great. A steady output of articles was reinforced by lectures and reviews in his own formidable style. Badian's earliest work transformed understanding of aspects of the Roman Republic, and he continued to work on that area throughout his career; but his series of studies of Alexander the Great (which he deliberately never summed up in a synoptic work) demolished the hero of his predecessors such as Droysen and Tarn, whom he regarded as starry-eyed hero-worshippers, and created an Alexander on the model of a twentieth-century tyrant. The Alexander who was a ruthless killer of his rivals and those who disagreed with him, a mass-murderer in his conquests, and perhaps even an incompetent imperialist, has superseded the Alexander whose mission it was to bring Greek civilization to the ends of the earth. These essays and articles provide a new layer in the interpretation of a figure who has not ceased to fascinate since his death in 323 BC. Many of these articles were published in out-of-the-way journals and conference volumes, and are brought together here for the first time in a collection which will provide student and scholar with a view of the full range of Badian's work on Alexander. Certain ephemeral pieces and all reviews except one have been excluded, by the wish of the author. The twenty-seven articles included were all revised by the author before his death, but there has been no other editorial intervention. The volume also includes a portrait, and an introduction by Eugene Borza surveying Badian's career and contribution. No one who works on Alexander the Great can afford to be without this book.

Ernst Kasemann, D.Theol. (Marburg), was born in 1906. After his university studies in Bonn, Marburg and Tubingen, he was for some time involved in pastoral work and was a prominent figure in the Confessing Church. In 1946 he was appointed Professor of New Testament in Mainz, and was called to a chair at Gottingen in 1951. After 1959 he was Professor of New Testament in Tubingen. Among books by Dr Kasemann translated into English are: The Testament of Jesus A study of the Gospel of John in the light of chapter 17 (1968); Jesus Means Freedom A polemical survey of the New Testament (1969); New Testament Questions of Today (1969); and Perspectives on Paul (1971).
