Concluding Admonition (Luke 21.34-36) 330 $aAlthough many scholars consider Luke 17:22-37 to be the most important eschatological passage in Luke-Acts, few agree on the precise meaning of the enigmatic proverb which forms its conclusion (Luke 17:37). Generally, Jesus' logion is taken to convey a macabre image of impending judgement. However, this study offers fresh literary, redactional, and historical evidence to suggest that Luke recast Jesus' saying in order to describe something much more glorious--the deliverance of the elect. Examination of the material elsewhere in Luke-Acts corroborates Luke's expectation of an ethereal reunion, 410 0$aJournal for the study of the New Testament.$pSupplement series ;$v240. 410 0$aLibrary of New Testament studies. 676 $a226.406 700 $aBridge$b Steven L.$01851831 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910955263803321 996 $aWhere the eagles are gathered$94446158 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03798nam 2200601Ia 450 001 9910959973103321 005 20251116181807.0 010 $a1-84760-210-X 035 $a(CKB)2550000001042865 035 $a(EBL)3306132 035 $a(SSID)ssj0001051821 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11678963 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001051821 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11060992 035 $a(PQKB)10949005 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3306132 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3306132 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10678817 035 $a(OCoLC)846986023 035 $a(BIP)44320104 035 $a(BIP)44193205 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000001042865 100 $a20130417d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe philosophy of humour /$fPaul McDonald 210 $aPenrith, CA $cHEB Humanities E-Books$dc2012 215 $a1 online resource (138 p.) 225 1 $aPhilosophy insights 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a1-84760-238-X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $a""Cover""; ""Licence and Use ""; ""Title Page ""; ""Copyright Notice ""; ""CONTENTS ""; ""Acknowledgments ""; ""1.

Bibliography ""; ""A Note on the Author ""; "" Humanities Insights "" 330 $aComic novelist and critic Paul McDonald explores the philosophy of humour in a book that will appeal to philosophers and creative writers alike. One aim of this book is to assess theories of humour and laughter. It concentrates mainly on philosophical approaches to humour- including those of Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Descartes, Hobbes, Bergson, Kant, Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, Freud and Bakhtin, but also explores such fields as cultural studies, literary theory, religion, psychoanalysis, and psychology; this broad focus makes for a richer account of humour, its relationship with philosophical thought, and its bearing on the human condition. Readers are invited to engage in creative writing exercises designed to exploit this crucial facet of humour, and to help them explore relevant issues imaginatively. In this way they will deepen their understanding of those issues, whilst at the same time cultivating their own creative skills. 410 0$aPhilosophy insights. 606 $aLaughter 606 $aWit and humor 615 0$aLaughter. 615 0$aWit and humor. 676 $a128.3 700 $aMcDonald$b Paul$0694301 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959973103321 996 $aThe philosophy of humour$94470516 997 $aUNINA
