Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This two-part book traces the literary and historic study of the story of the 'Wooing of Rebekah' in the Hebrew Bible and its creative interpretations in Rabbinic Midrash. Part 1 treats such issues as the characterization of the narrative agents in the biblical story, the use of repetition as a narrative structuring device, and the question as to the roles of Rebekah and Isaac in this story as well as in the broader Isaac-Rebekah narratives. Part 2 follows several rabbinic interpretations of this story, dealing with, among other topics, the development of the motif of Rebekah's virginity in rabbinic aggadah and halakha as well as the reception of this theme in modern feminist studies of midrash. While treating these topics, this is at the same time a methodological inquiry into the dynamics of midrashic interpretation, treating rabbinic techniques such as 'gap-filling' and 'linkage', and its differences from modern biblical exegesis. Bible and Midrash Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: New. This book is a comprehensive account of the theory and applications of regular variation. It is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of a real function of a real variable x which is 'close' to a power of x. Such functions are much more than a convenient extension of powers. In many limit theorems regular variation is intrinsic to the result, and exactly characterises the limit behaviour. The book emphasises such characterisations, and gives a comprehensive treatment of those applications where regular variation plays an essential (rather then merely convenient) role. The authors rigorously develop the basic ideas of Karamata theory and de Haan theory including many new results and 'second-order' theorems. They go on to discuss the role of regular variation in Abelian, Tauberian, and Mercerian theorems. These results are then applied in analytic number theory, complex analysis, and probability, with the aim above all of setting the theory in context. A widely scattered literature is thus brought together in a unified approach. With several appendices and a comprehensive list of references, analysts, number theorists, and probabilists will find this an invaluable and complete account of regular variation. It will provide a rigorous and authoritative introduction to the subject for research students in these fields.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Memory - Papers Read at the Jewish and Christian Perspectives Conference, Utrecht 2022 connects past, present, and future. This conference volume demonstrates the diversity of 'memory' in the Jewish and Christian traditions. 'Memory' turns out to be a key to investigating and better understanding many aspects of Judaism and Christianity, including their mutual relationship. In these traditions, memory is not simply about recalling events, but about preserving identity, culture, and divine teachings. The act of remembering is central to how communities pass down their religious beliefs, laws, and moral frameworks across generations. It also plays a role in communal cohesion, ensuring that the experiences of the fathers and their wisdom would not get lost, but rather actively re-lived and celebrated.…

Cette faune bilingue livre l ?tat des connaissances sur la taxinomie et la r?partition des poissons d eaux douces et saum?tres de l ouest de l Afrique centrale (province ichtyologique de basse Guin?e). L ?tude couvre la r?gion allant de la rivi?re Cross, au sud-est du Nigeria, jusqu ? la R?publique du Congo, en incluant le Cabinda. La basse Guin?e poss?de sa propre identit? ichtyologique, avec une diversit? faunistique regroupant quelque 580 esp?ces dont beaucoup sont end?miques. Cet ouvrage fait suite ? la faune des poissons d Afrique de l Ouest publi?e en 2003 dans cette collection. Le classement taxinomique est donn? par famille avec un ensemble de clefs communes ? tous les genres. Pour chaque esp?ce, le lecteur trouvera une description illustr?e des caract?ristiques morphologiques essentielles ainsi qu une carte de r?partition pour les esp?ces dul?aquicoles. Alors que la disparition de la for?t tropicale s acc?l?re et que des secteurs entiers de la basse Guin?e restent ? explorrer, cet ouvrage constitue pour les ?cologues, les directeurs de p?cheries et les d?cideurs un document indispensable pour la pr?servation des ?cosyst?mes de cette r?gion. This bilingual fauna delivers the state of knowledge on the taxonomy and distribution of freshwater and brackish water fish from western central Africa (ichthyological province of Lower Guinea). The study covers the region from the Cross River in south-eastern Nigeria to the Republic of Congo, including Cabinda. Lower Guinea has its own ichthyological identity, with a fauna diversity comprising some 580 species, many of which are endemic. This book follows on from the West African fish fauna published in 2003 in this collection. The taxonomic classification is given by family with a set of keys common to all the genera. For each species, the reader will find an illustrated description of the essential morphological characteristics as well as a distribution map for freshwater species. As the disappearance of the rainforest accelerates and entire sectors of Lower Guinea remain to be explored, this work constitutes for ecologists, fisheries managers and decision-makers an essential document for the preservation of the ecosystems of this region.
