This book confirms that research on the Letter to the Galatians is flourishing. Although it is true that much of what is being published is not new and that well-known arguments and insights have often been repeated, it is also clear that much progress is constantly being made. In this volume, hundreds of academic studies that appeared on the letter from 2000 to 2020 are discussed concisely so that the main contribution of each study to a better understanding of the letter can be grasped easily. Studies on Galatians or parts of it are organised and discussed in terms of five categories - introductory matters, textual and stylistic issues, history of interpretation, interpretative approaches and the theology of the letter. The primary focus of each study is clearly delineated so that its specific contribution to grasping key aspects of the letter becomes clear. D. Francois Tolmie is Professor of New Testament Studies at the Faculty of Theology and Religion at the University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa. He is also the author of Persuading the Galatians: A Text-Centred Rhetorical Analysis of a Pauline Letter and Pointing Out Persuasion in Philemon: Fifty Readings of Paul's Rhetoric from the Fourth to the Eighteenth Century.

Walter Benjamin claimed that the notion of novelty took on unprecedented importance with the growth of high capitalism in the nineteenth century. In this book, Kristina Mendicino analyzes a selection of canonical texts that reflect profound concern with novelty and its apparent contrary, the eternal return of the same, including Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Baudelaire's lyric and prose poetry, and Marx and Engels's Communist Manifesto. She also addresses Eternity by the Stars by Louis-Auguste Blanqui, who is less well known and often underestimated in considerations of his significance for revolutionary political theory.Mendicino argues that the notion of a novum cannot be understood without attentiveness to the language of announcement, not least of all because the "new" has always been associated with a particular mode of linguistic performance. Through close readings of emphatically annunciatory texts, she demonstrates how the extreme possibilities of expression that they present through specific citational and rhetorical praxes render the language of announcement overdetermined and anachronistic in ways that exceed any systematic account of historical time and experience. This excess in and through language is precisely what opens hitherto unheard of alternatives for conceiving of historical temporality and political possibility.

Il faut être « modérément moderne », et non « absolument », comme le préconisait Rimbaud. Et prendre ses distances d'avec cette maladie, la « modernité ». De ces fameux « Temps Modernes », que peut dire un philosophe qui a décidé de ne pas avancer masqué??Complaisante modernité, qui se clame en « rupture » avec tout?! Pourtant, qu'a-t-elle inventé?? Les idées modernes ne sont que des idées prémodernes, maquillées comme une marchandise volée. Avec le recul et la capacité d'analyse que lui permet sa formidable culture, Rémi Brague nous offre une série de réflexions incisives sur les notions de Modernité, de Culture, d'Histoire, de Sécularisation, de Progrès... Chemin faisant, il met en avant des penseurs qui sortent des sentiers battus, des idées qu'on avait oubliées, et des rapprochements qui font avancer
