The Bible is undoubtedly the most influential 'book' that the world has ever known.
Contributions range from Saadia Gaon's tenth-century Arabic translation of the Pentateuch to Martin Scorsese's 1988 film adaptation of The Last Temptation of Christ; from the biblically inspired writings of a late seventeenth-century French galley slave to Paul Ricouer's reading of The Song of Songs; and from the deep biblical culture of fifth-century Rome to the divisions that biblical verses perpetuated in late twentieth-century Ulster.
Contributors include: Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin, CSsR (Newark); Thomas O'Loughlin (U Nottingham); Cornelius Casey, CSsR (TCD); Jeremy Corley (SPCM); Noel O'Sullivan (SPCM); Michael A. Conway (SPCM); Jessie Rogers (SPCM); Martin O'Kane (U Wales, Trinity Saint David); Kerry Houston (DIT); and more.
