The Brill Dictionary of Religion

Image

The new and impressively comprehensive Brill Dictionary of Religion addresses religion as an element of daily life and public discourse. Richly illustrated and with more than 500 entries, the dictionary is a multi-media reference source on the many and various forms of religious commitment. It is unusual in that it not only addresses the different theologies and doctrinal declarations of the official institutionalized religions but it also gives equal weight and consideration to a multiplicity of other religious phenomena.
People perceive and express religious experiences in many different ways: through dance, sensuality, in relations between sexes and in compassion at death. Religions help determine how people form and perceive their identity as part of a social group. The diverse effects of religions can also be perceived in the environment, society and the public sphere. The Brill Dictionary of Religion helps map out and define the networks and connections created by various religions in contemporary societies, and provides models for understanding these complex phenomena.

Oxford Dictionary of Concise Quotations, 5th Edition

Image

The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations is as impressive, erudite, enjoyable, and
educational a tome as you might expect from Oxford. It's the sort of undertaking
the press does very well. The first such dictionary, as compiled by Oxford, was
published in 1953, and it's been tweaking, modifying, and updating it ever
since. This new edition, the fifth, offers well over 20,000 quotations from more
than 3,000 authors. Responding to correspondence from their readers, Oxford has
restored some material from past editions, such as the proverbs and
nursery-rhymes section. There's a much more inclusive attention to sacred texts
of world religions, and 2,000 quotations are brand new.

The Oxford Dictionary of Modern Quotations

Image

In this dictionary, "modern" is defined as 20th century; thus, entries are quotes originating from people alive after 1900. If the speaker was also quotable before 1900, those remarks are included as well. Using the same format as The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations (Oxford Univ. Pr., 1979. 3d ed.), this book consists of some 5000 quotations from a wide range of sources: arrangement is alphabetical by the names of the authors, and each quotation includes a reference to a printed source. The index, nearly half as long as the text itself, provides quick and easy access to quotations by keywords. Some of the authors included here are also represented in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations. In many of these cases, however, the newer title attributes even more quotations per author. There are a number of quotations given first in their original (non-English) language, followed by an English translation. Song, book, and movie titles are also represented.
Recommended as a companion volume to the earlier Oxford title and a worthy addition to that often-used shelf in any reference collection.
