Book Description
Though more than four hundred years have elapsed since the Bishops' Bible was first published in 1568, its story has never been adequately told. No book-length evaluation has been published, and no adequate bibliography is available for guidance in studying this least known of the Tudor-period Bibles. This neglect is surprising in that Shakespeare's earlier plays reflect his use of the Bishops' Bible and that the Bishops' Bible was used by the translators of the King James Version as the basis for their revision. This study depicts the religious, literary, and intellectual atmosphere that produced the Bishops' Bible, describes its place in sixteenth-century translations, re-evaluates its contribution to the study of the English Bible, and investigates the history and qualifications of the men invited to participate in the translation project. Attention is given to the artwork, the most elaborate of any in first editions of early English Bibles, and to the notes designed to correct the objectionable Calvinistic notes of the Geneva Bible. A presumption that the bishops would not prepare a better Bible until "a day after domesday" gives the title to this study--The Day after Domesday.

Day One
Author: Peter H. Wyden
Publisher: Simon & Schuster
ISBN: 9781476791739
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
From the author of Bay of Pigs and Betrayal and Survival in Hitler’s Germany comes a full scope look at the bombing of Hiroshima, from the race to create the bomb to its detrimental dropping on Japan and the terrifying consequences that are still affecting the world over seventy years later. Hiroshima was an event of such magnitude that it divided history into two periods: before and after the bomb. It led to the first day of a new age in which all life would be at risk. Almost seventy years later, as Peter Wyden began this book, the world was still dealing with the fallout of the bomb’s creation. Wyden draws on eyewitness accounts, interviews, and documents never before published in order to trace the nuclear state of the modern world to the historical roots of Hiroshima. Skillfully weaving together all the strands, stories, and characters, including the scientific, political, moral, military, and human viewpoints, Wyden provides a full understanding of how the bomb was created, why it was used, and what the aftermath of those decisions has been.
