	BACKUS, IRENA, ED. The Reception of the Church Fathers in the West. From the Carolingians to the Maurists. 2 Volumes. Leiden, New York, Koln,, E. J. Brill. 1997. (ISBN: 9004097228) . xxix/1078 pp. (2 volumes paged continuously). 8vo, cloth. boxed. As new. This 1000-page English-language reference work has been produced with the collaboration of 23 scholars from Europe and North America and is intended as a guide to some of the most important developments in the history of the reception of the Church Fathers in the West, from the Carolingians to the Maurists. Particular emphasis is placed on the history of patristic scholarship which, unlike classical scholarship, has tended to be neglected by historians. However, the reception of patristic doctrines and ideas is also included and patristic scholarship is placed in its doctrinal and cultural context. Articles do not confine themselves to summarising what has been done on a particular topic, but also suggest new approaches and areas of research to be opened up. In order to make this volume useful to graduate students and scholars from non-theological disciplines, full relevant bibliographical information is provided. The volume addresses the following general questions: (1) what is meant by the "Fathers"; (2) the problems of patristic as opposed to Scriptural authority; (3) the types (and amount) of patristic material available and the problems of attribution and misattribution; (4) the uses made of the Fathers in constituting a theological doctrine and in response to a doctrinal difference; (5) the abuses made of the Fathers, i.e. overly tendentious or polemical uses; (6) the value of the Greek and Latin Fathers; (7) the use made of the Fathers in defining heresy and orthodoxy.

	BIBLE. [SHEPPARD, GERALD, T., ED.] The Geneva Bible: The Annotated New Testament, 1602 Edition. With Introductory Essays Edited by Gerald T. Sheppard. New York,, The Pilgrim Press. 1989. (ISBN: 0829807853) . 41 pp. plus 135 folio (i.e. 270 pp.). 4to, quality paperback. Scratch the length of the front cover, else a very good, clean copy. The Geneva Bible, one of the most historically significant translations of the Bible in the English language, preceding the King James translation by 51 years, was the primary Bible of the 16th Century Protestant movement and was the Bible used by William Shakespeare, John Knox, John Donne, and John Bunyan, author of Pilgrim's Progress. It was one of the Bibles taken to America on the Mayflower, it was used by many English Dissenters, and it was still respected by Oliver Cromwell's soldiers at the time of the English Civil War. This facsimile of the 1607 edition is reproduced by permission of the British and Foreign Bible Society from a copy in their collection at Cambridge University Library. Like most English translations of the time, the Geneva Bible was translated from scholarly editions of the Greek New Testament and the Hebrew Scriptures that comprise the Christian Old Testament. The English rendering was substantially based on the earlier translations by William Tyndale and Myles Coverdale (80-90% of the language in the Genevan New Testament is from Tyndale). However, the Geneva Bible was the first English version in which all of the Old Testament was translated directly from the Hebrew. The annotations, an important part of the Geneva Bible, were Calvinist and Puritan in character, and as such, disliked by the ruling pro-government Protestants of the Church of England, as well as King James I, who commissioned the "Authorized Version," or King James Bible, to replace it. The Geneva Bible had also motivated the earlier production of the Bishops' Bible under Elizabeth I, for the same reason, and the later Rheims-Douai edition by the Catholic community. The Geneva Bible remained popular among Puritans and remained in widespread use until after the English Civil War. With introductory essays by Gerald T. Sheppard, Marvin W. Anderson, John T.
