I LIKED THIS BOOK
Agamben writes on a dizzying array of topics, and my interest was piqued when I learned that he had written a Scripture commentary. This book is a word by word commentary on the first ten words (in Greek) of St. Paul's Letter to the Romans. Agamben argues, in this book, that the whole of Pauline theology can be found in these words. It's a wild ride, including an analysis of Roman social customs and slavery, political theory, theology, linguistics, and a history of the Franciscan order. But, anyone really wanting a non-traditional but orthodox examination of Pauline theology should definitely read this book.
Everything you read as a child has a special spot in your heart, and Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer have been in mine for a long time. It's a great American classic by one of the country's greatest writers, and has great sub-themes to boot.
