It's not long, but I've gone back to it a few times in my life and my cover is actually a little worn now. I memorized the Lord's Prayer in Old English from this book (for fun!) and whenever I get the urge to attempt learning Old English I bring out this book. I never get much farther than that, but maybe someday. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
The Bible in the English language is among the great achievements of all time, not only as a masterpiece of inspired writing but as a witness to the place of the Scriptures in the life of the English-speaking peoples, and Bruce's work, recognised for 30 years as the best on its subject, documents its history and shows the impact of some of the translations on the use and development of the English language. Formerly The English Bible, this comprehensive study of the various English translations of the Bible is again available in paperback. The author traces the story from the earliest partial translations in Saxon times, through Wycliffe, Tyndale and The King James Version, to the publication of such contemporary versions as The New English Bible, The New American Standard Version, The Living Bible, and The Good News Bible. Authoritative and highly readable, this remains one of the standard works on its subject. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
